24 Best Italian Restaurants in Tallahassee

“Stopped at the Black Radish on our way through town last week, what an absolute delight. Everything brought to our table was absolutely delicious. The focaccia bread is the best thing I have ever eaten to be sure. Service was also great. Try this place, you won’t regret it!“

“McKenna was amazing and the food was so yummy! ❤️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My wife and I came here to celebrate our one-year wedding anniversary, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and taken care of. Our server, Sarah, was the definition of professional and attentive—she made sure everything was just right. The food was absolutely delicious and authentically Italian, the wine paired perfectly, and the atmosphere was cozy and romantic. Top-notch service all around. Highly recommend this gem for any special occasion or a great night out! 🇮🇹🍷🍝“

“Love the food and service was excellent! The only concern I had was the hostess just pointed to the table she wanted us to sit at….did not take us to the table, we were the only ones wanting to be seated. As the evening progressed, she sat some, pointed to the table to others.“

“Date night dinner with my husband. Delicious food, nice atmosphere! Great “above and beyond” service by Sevonnah!! ♥️ Huge portions and complementary bread. Already planning a return trip!“

“omgosh amazing food and service. had the pork duo, braises beef ribs, crab cakes, and bread with herb infused oil. definitely a 10/10 in our books. it's not a quick eating place takes about 1.5-2 hours and price is up there so sharing maybe an option especially with what we had but glad we chose our own meals instead of sharing.“

“Fantastic italian food....best in Tallahassee by far. We dined in for lunch. Portion sizes huge and delicious. Our new favorite spot“

“This is my first time being here because my daughter goes to Florida State. She suggested this place and was told about this place from two of her friends. The food here is amazing. I had to tuxedo striped lobster ravioli, and this dish was so delightful. I wish I could take it home and eat it five days a week thank you for this enjoyable experience in every time I come to visit my daughter in Tallahassee. I will be making a stop here.“

“We were on a road trip from Indiana and the pizza was so good that we came back down for dinner!! The atmosphere at dinner was even better! Everyone was friendly and the food was amazing!!“

“absolutely the best food i have ever had. their sauce for the stuffed shells and the garlic bread are to die for. 100% recommend“

“Best restaurant in Tallahassee“

“I didn’t eat here, but I was sitting there waiting on a DoorDash order as I witness a lady who I assume is the owner be very nice to a homeless guy. It was very heartfelt and authentic. The five stars is for customer service for sure,Not to mention that they called a taxi for another lady who was pretty much challenged. I’m coming back here to eat for sure“

“Only thing I found ! Chicken in tour of Italy salty and dry! Still ok! Employees coming few minutes before opening not a good idea! Should be at least 15 with pay so they are ready when doors open !“

“We had my birthday celebration at Milano Pizza and it was such a great experience! The pizzas taste like authentic Italian pizza. Light, not overly greasy, and full of flavor. You can really tell the quality of the ingredients. The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating while we were organizing the birthday gathering, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

And the desserts… absolutely amazing! The Limoncello dessert was especially phenomenal. definitely a must try.

If you're looking for delicious pizza and a friendly atmosphere, I highly recommend Milano Pizza!“

“I bring members of a Tallahassee Meetup group (Friends, Fun & Food) to Mom & Dads at least one or two times per month. We always request seating in the bar area where there are fully set tables and padded bench and chair seating for up to 14 adults. It has excellent ambiance because of table lighting, very comfortable seating, and very low background sounds allowing conversation among our entire group as well as direct conversation to the bar area attendant. That provides very quick service for both drink and food requests. We frequent many restaurants each month in addition to Mom & Dads and yet it remains one of our favorites due to their combination of seating, a great menu selection, full satisfaction with their well-plated entrees and bar drinks, Happy Hour prices at times, and exceptional service. There are very few restaurants that equal or exceed them.“

“Past couple times I ordered my food it was great and both delivery dudes (Kurt & william) have been awesome! Quick with a positive attitude! Thank you!“

“We traveled 2 1/2 hours from Alabama to Tallahassee. We found things to do downtown to add to our day. However, the main purpose of our trip was to visit this restaurant. The pizza was amazing. We went that far based on the recommendation of 2 of my Italian 🇮🇹 Army flight students at Fort Novosel (Rucker). They told us your restaurant had the most authentic Italian 🇮🇹 style pizza they had found within 3 hours of Fort Novosel. I fully agree with their assessment. The pizza was nearly identical to what we ate in Naples, Italy 🇮🇹 6 years ago. We look forward to visiting again in the future. Maybe when we go back, it will be warmer so we can enjoy more of Tallahassee. BTW, for those in other reviews that complained about the crust being nearly paper thin, that is how it is in Italy 🇮🇹. This restaurant aims to make authentic Italian pizzas. If that is not what you are looking for, you need to find an American 🇺🇸 style pizza restaurant.“

“I'm pretty sure yall accidentally gave me someone else's pizza.
I came in after driving all afternoon to pick up a pie so I wouldn't have to cook this evening. I ordered a large Brickyard. When I got home, this is what I got. I've heard a lot of good things about yall, but I don't think that this is what this pizza is supposed to look like.
After today, I'm definitely not driving back over there. I'm givin yall all stars,because I ate it and it was good. But, I still don't think that this is what I ordered. If it is, what a peculiar offering.“

“Marco's pizza holds a strong top spot in my book in terms of pizza places. Their cupped pepperoni is fantastic and has a pleasant crunch, it's honestly the best kind out there.
Service was quick and the inside was pretty clean.“

“This my regular go-to Hungry Howies and I never had any big issues, they might have not cooked the cheese all the way through or been skippy with it but on average it's good. Now on Tuesday, 02/11/25 somebody was in there who either loves their job or cares about the food they put out. They did a wonderful job, I got a large cheese/sausage with extra cheese and I requested the cheese be well-melted and they came through for your girl. Shout out to them and I hope it's a consistent thing. Thank you to whoever made my pizza!“

“xoxo xoxo xoxoxo xoxoxo xo xoxo“

“During Covid 19 currently in September HH has drive-thru carryout or delivery available. My go to locations are on W. Pensacola Street or Blair Stone Road near Southwood. The pizzas are always delicious!“

“Was very upset trying to use the online service to order a pizza for work. Cory the manager made the experience much better, I will definitely come back and order from this hungry howies. Might get my daughter a job that's the biggest plus thanks cory“

“This is the best Hungry Howie's!
They provide plenty of options for the whole family to choose from! Which is awesome!! (Especially when I don't feel like cooking!) Whether we choose to pick up our order, or have it delivered, the HH staff are always courteous and punctual! Thank you!!“
