50 Best Italian Restaurants near Alsip

“Honestly if I just got pizza this would be a 5 star review however, I ordered waffle fries that tasted extremely dry like they were old and wings that were just alright. I assumed the wings would be fried but they were baked not a big fan of baked wings. The pizza was excellent and I would definitely come back for that alone. I’m not a big fan of deep dish but based off the taste of the thin crust pizza I’m definitely going to have to try that next time.“

“Place is 🔥! They have great customer service, and I would highly recommend this place to anybody. Especially if you’re looking for some good BBQ!!!“

“Best restaurant in Chicago ! ❤️“

“My friends and I visited Frankie’s in Tinley Park for the first time and had such a great experience! I ordered the pappardelle, while my friends got the rigatoni vodka and linguine with shrimp — everything was absolutely delicious. The food was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. Service was also fantastic and made our first visit even better. We’ll definitely be back!“

“In 2017, I picked up my older brother at Midway to come home to the funeral of our youngest brother that committed suicide at 23 yers old. We swung over to Vito and Nick's to get a pizza and talk. It was our first time there. We ended up telling the waitress the situation because we had both been crying. Next thing we know, the kitchen had par-baked like 8 large pizzas of all types, and gave us a hand-written note giving us condolences and instructions on how to finish baking the pizzas. They said they wanted to make sure my family was well-fed in our time of tragedy ❤ And the pizza is INCREDIBLE ❤ SPECIAL, SPECIAL PLACE“

“I come from an Italian family so love the food, but put Gatto’s up there as one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to!!! I had the chicken Milano and my partner had the carbonara and both were fabulous!! Great job on the meal, our waiter was amazing, he remembered all our drinks which were also delicious, and the whole night was a great one! Wish we didn’t live so far away or we would partake in your restaurant weekly!!!“

“Had delay on flight so my mom wanted to stop somewhere for food. This was the first place that we noticed was rated above 2. 😂 The food was solid! I had the Holy Cow Burger w/ fries and mom had the Sweet & Spicy wings. We enjoyed both.

Food cost was fair. ($20) As far as cocktails, I had the Mr. Tea and mom had the Paloma. Both were good. Cocktails were $23, but it is what it is.

Service was great. Food was brought out quick as well. I recommend this spot.“

“If ever there was a place which resonates the Billy Joel song “Scenes from an Italian restaurant “ This place is IT! Visited for the first time on 2/14/26. The aroma as we entered was so inviting. Met the owners/ daughter and mom. So very sweet and funny too. Our server was Candy. She was working very hard on a busy Valentine’s Day. I had the lasagna and I can honestly say it was the best lasagna I’ve ever had in my life! The ricotta filling was so whipped and light. It was just delightful and so delicious. The bomba ice cream was scrumptious! Cannot wait to return to this gem of a restaurant!! 🇮🇹“

“Their pizza is delicious. My family loves pizza. We have tried many is the surrounding area and nothing compares to Guardi's. It has become a staple for take out in my house. Their service is great (I have never arrived and had to wait for my order) and the employees have always been extremely friendly and sufficient. It's worth giving them a try.“

“I had a catered event on October 2nd. The food was excellent!! Especially the Italian beef and Mac and cheese. Went to drop off stuff snd decided to have lunch since we were there. The Reuben was to die for!! As was the beef sandwich. We also loved the fries. Thank you Jim for making the food for our 30th anniversary party . I would highly recommend using them for all of your catering needs. And if you are in Thorton, pick up lunch. You won’t regret it.“

“Everything there runs better when MARY is working. She is friendly, efficient and seems to be able to multitask better than most employees at the Oak Lawn location. She’s the best !“

“I was born and raised in Chicago. Thin crust tavern style pizza is my go to! I moved to Indiana and miss good Chicago pizza. I had Bartolini s shipped via Goldbelly last week. I am BLOWN AWAY!!! This is the absolute best pizza I have had since I left Chicago!!!! Next time I am back in the area you better believe I will be there!!!!“

“5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I used to get this pizza when I was growing up in Orland Park. It's still an amazing pizza and the (owner?) who I've interacted with a couple times recently has been incredibly inviting when you enter his business, super friendly. That's great but like I said, the pizza is outstanding! I love supporting the small guy. If you haven't given them a try, do it. You won't be disappointed! If I still lived in Orland Park this would be my go to every time! Plus I got to catch the Bears interception play on their TV today when I was grabbing my pizza. 🐻 ⬇️“

“The staff weren't that nice, the food didn't live up the the Barraco's name, but it wasn't a terrible experience. If the staff didn't hand us smudged glasses and forks with food stains, had been more like waiters who entertain guests rather than serve food, and a pizza that seemed not to be baked well and had a grainy crust, it would be five star dinning I experience. I had no real problem here, but it hadn't lived up the name.“

“1st time being here and everything was A+! We came in and sat at the bar while our food was being freshly made. Awesome and Friendly staff! Enjoyed a little bit of the game on tv and had some cheese fries while we waited with our drinks. I definitely want to go back and try more on the menu! Brought the pizzas home to 4 teenagers and they devoured them in minutes. Lol Thanks so much for nice little “date” night while we waited. 🍕“

“On 05/29/2026, I had dinner with some friends who recommended Palermo’s on 95th. I’ve always wanted to try it, and I’m glad I finally did—it did not disappoint.
The food was excellent, and the service matched it. Everything came out great, and the staff was attentive and welcoming throughout the visit. It was an all-around enjoyable experience, and I would definitely go back again.
The only minor downside was the parking, which can be a bit tight, but that’s not the restaurant’s fault.
Overall, a great spot with amazing food and service—highly recommend.“
