10 Best Italian Restaurants in Bloomington

“Today was my first time eating at Lucca Grill. We went during lunch and I ordered their grilled chicken sandwich dipped in parmesan sauce and homemade chips. It was delicious! Our waitress was fantastic! She greeted us as we walked in and gave us great service! We are definitely going back and will have to try the pizza.“

“Amazing staff and amazing food!!“

“We hosted a family milestone celebratory meal for nineteen people which exceeded even all our high expectations. Between DawnMichelle Alvarez, Biaggi’s Event Coordinator, and Christy, our primary server, we received fabulous treatment throughout our evening. We have celebrated family milestones at Biaggi’s for many years and will continue to do so because Biaggi’s in our opinion is the very best Bloomington has to offer.“

“Manuel was absolutely on it! I hadn't been to this location before so I was nervous especially trying it out so close to holidays. He was handling a lot at once but he was so kind to interact with and quick with everything we needed! Both couples in our party traveled to be here tonight and it was great to have such a positive doing experience out together!“

“Just went there with my husband for the first time. Service was excellent and the food was exceptionally good. We shared a pizza and I had a simple salad. Pizza was flavorful and just right for the two of us. Salad was greens, tomatoes and kalamata olives in a divine dressing. Yum! Highly recommend and can’t wait to return. Is tomorrow too soon? lol“

“My daughter loves Monica’s! We order from here often. Mostly for delivery. They always meet or exceed the estimate delivery time. Food is hot and fresh! Their breadsticks are always fresh. Staff is always friendly. Great Monica’s location.“

“One of the first customers through the door on Saturday of ISU graduation weekend. Not terribly busy, yet, buy our server was spectacular. We never had an empty glass, our food was out faster than I can ever recall at this location, and she had a smile the entire visit.“

“Amazing staff and amazing food!!“

“The food was made correctly and tasted good. The service was friendly. A lot has been lost in the atmosphere since Covid. It feels more like a fast food place than a restaurant. Order at the counter. Get your own drinks. Not what it used to be.“

“We ate in. Service was great. The waiter accidentally knocked over a closed, half used, 2 liter and replaced it with a new full one, without us asking. He even gave us garlic puffs to try for free. I told him it wasn't needed, but he insisted. Pizza was great! Chicago style, extra cheese and pepperoni.“
