22 Best Italian Restaurants near Grant Valkaria

“I just got back from eating at the Italian Fisherman and just can't stop talking about it. What a great time and great food. We go out weekly to dinner with our friends and this is by far the best place to go. We like some places and some restaurants we would never go back again. This restaurant is a go to place. The owner is fun and his card tricks add such a nice atmosphere and the food is really good. Best dinning experience in a long time“

“Celebrating my daughers early birthday with phenomenal pizza. My first visit and not my last!! Not only was our pizza delicious but our server Brittany was attentive and phenominal. She and my daughter share the same birthday!“

“Sandwich was amazing. Got the 8in deluxe and only finished half. Saved the other half for later and it was still delicious. They had this pastry at the check out with ricotta and something citrusy and it was also super good. Cashier was friendly. They also have other goods to buy like pasta, olives, and other things.“

“I can not say enough about Trattoria Bella! Our office used their catering for our Christmas party & everything was just amazing! Everyone raved about each dish. Julia the owner, was wonderful to work with. She answered all my catering emails very promptly and made great suggestions. I loved everything so much, I took my daughter there tonight for dinner. It’s the cutest little Italian restaurant with a great atmosphere. Our waitress was great & service was fast! Highly recommend checking them out!“

“Hopefully my review comes through“

“Italian deli with some delicious foods and generous portions. Not only do they serve sandwiches, paninis, wood fired pizza, but they do sell gelato and have assorted Italian desserts available for sale. The Frankie's special was delicious, a 9 inch sub with prosciutto, ham, mortadella, Genoa, provolone, spring mix, tomato, onion, roasted red pepper, giardiniera and dressing. Lots of flavors brought together for a very tasty sandwich. The only down side I had about the sandwich was there were quite a bit of oils so napkins are definitely a must. The Italiano Panini included, ham, Genoa, Cappy, spring mix, tomatoes, onions, roasted red peppers, artichokes, and dressing, along with the chips. The mozzarella sticks are homemade and quite cheesy, as they are made to order. The garlic bread is very plain but heavy on the garlic and cheese but is the way I prefer. Ended up trying some of the cookies and cake that they offer and it brought some good flavors, however the tiramisu tasted a little dry. Overall, not a bad place, definitely want to come back and try the pizza.Parking: Located in a strip mall so there's a decent amount of parking“

“This was a great pizza place! Me and my boyfriend ordered the garlic knots, 2 slices of the day, the Chicken Parmesan, and a red velvet cake. Christy, our server, was super kind and fast with the service! They even split the Chicken Parmesan order in half for us so we didn’t have too.“

“The place is absolutely amazing relaxing and the family and staff are truly the best. Food is delicious and the pizza is better than back at home in New Jersey. Portions are huge and good wine. Try it you won’t be disappointed. 5 stars in my book“

“Went on a Friday about 4 pm. No one else there. The server was wonderful. Wife had fetucini Alfredo. She said it was good. The salads were great with a slightly sweet balsamic vinaigrette. My chicken parm was cooked great and the penne pasta was good. My only complaint was that the pasta was not drained and there was water in the plate that got everywhere. The pasta needs to be strained better. See pic. Real chicken breast, not a formed patty like Vic's.“

“Three of us first timers there Saturday night. We will be back again with more friends. We all ordered 3 different menu entrees and they were delicious. The tomato bisque was exceptional as was our server, Keri. All the tables were full and the servers, food runners and bus people kept everything running smoothly. Having had a restaurant background, I was impressed and that's not easy to do. Glad we found this jewel.“

“Excellent Italian food! Thin crust pizza, Italian sub, crispy fish and chips, all excellent.“

“This is true New York style pizza and being from NYC I know. The staff is friendly owner was very cordial and polite answered any questions I had this will be my new spot from now on for True New York style pizza bring your family you can dine “

“Ordered a Popeye's pizza, eggplant parmesan, stuffed shells, with salad and knots and 2 cannoli. The food arrived HOT, the sauce is to die for. There really isn't any place in the area that even comes close for genuine, amazing sauce. Everything was fantastic. I should have taken pictures before we ate it, but I was so starving, I wolfed it down. Truly excellent. Have never had bad food ever from this place. Decent prices, good specials, and consistently high quality prep. My mother wears dentures and most other garlic knots are too hard for her to chew, but these were amazing, soft, well seasoned. The only negative is the time....if you order or go to Michelli's, make sure you have time, because I usually do wait about an hour for delivery, and in the restaurant, takes a bit longer than a chain sit down, but so worth it. I can't really complain about the time, because good Italian food takes time. Their staff is also excellent, and if they have a question, they call you. They have never messed up my order and my order is always excellent. Like I said, the only drawback is "time" and so if I'm in a hurry, I don't get Michelli's, but we sincerely LOVE it. Best sauce in FL. No lie. If you want amazing food and you have the time, THIS absolutely is the best place locally.“

“Pizza dough is hand made not bought! Sauce is also hand made and not from a can! excellent pizza. They also have entrees which I tried and was also good. Thanks for the courteous customer service.“

“Great food! Fast and friendly service. The atmosphere is welcoming. I personally love the calzone and my wife loves the lasagna. The portions are big and the prices are reasonable.“

“Best Olive Garden we have ever been to! The service was great! They worked as a team helping each other. They all had smiles on their faces!We got our food quickly & it was good!When we spoke to the manager about how great our experience was, he gave all the credit to his team!“

“Love the jale-mango wings & the Italian beef sub“

“Went there today with my mom and son it was a nice quiet time we ate outside and the server was still very attentive despite us being the only people outside. Quick friendly service and some of the best pizza my family has had in years. We’ve been going here for at least 10 years and it’s always been great. Try their Philly. All their pizza is amazing but the bread they use on that Philly really makes it.Kid-friendliness: Outside seating coloring books and large portions.Wheelchair accessibility: There’s a ramp and wide seating along with tables with removable chairs as well as outside seating.“

“Excellent pizza, authentic NY taste. Great people behind the counter and great pizza.“

“Excellent service at this restraunt. I took my parents here for diner. I ordered a medium-rare steak but received a well-done one. When waitstaff checked on our satisfaction, I sent the steak back. Next, I received a perfectly prepared steak. They explained that new equipment in the kitchen had thrown cooks off their game. Additionally, management comped my meal. You will be well taken care of at this restaurant.“

“Great pizza horrible customer service skills. All the reviews about the staff are true unfortunately. I would recommend bizarro’s unless you don’t mind dealing with disrespectful staff.“

“I like very much this Pizzeria, tasty food and variety.“
