50 Best Italian Restaurants near Burbank

“The only reason i gave 4 stars is because the food was good & our waitress, Shannon was amazing. The host on the other hand, was on her phone & didn’t even greet us or say bye when we left. If you hate your job, just let someone else be there because as the front of the business , we should feel welcomed & happy to be there! Thank you Shannon for making up for what she lacked.“

“Delicious!! Thin Crust Lots of sausage .. i love the green olive too! The mostaccioli and giant size meatballs .. mmmmm and that red sauce .. it’s heavenly !!“

“My Fiancé and I discovered this restaurant after watching “Somebody Feed Fill” and were inspired and intrigued by Sarah’s restaurant and craftsmanship. We had our eye on getting reservations here for a very long time and we ended up landing lunch reservations for my Fiancés birthday (whom is also a Chef). We just happened to be seated by the expo line near the kitchen where we saw Sarah working. From start to finish our server Rose, and Sarah made sure our experience was personalized special. Sarah even signed the cookbook we bought and menu! Everything was on point from the food to the service. I can see why it’s so hard to get a reservation here! If we could rate our experience higher we would. We greatly appreciate the hospitality and dedication that this restaurant displays!“

“Trip from Waukesha to Chicago to celebrate our wedding anniversary, I was really impressed and satisfied with the Italian flavor of all the food, the chef was very friendly, helpful but above all dedicated to the attention of the diners, he was always attentive to every detail in our dishes, he came over several times to help us with the menu and giving recommendations according to our tastes, I was delighted with the treatment and service of the entire team in the restaurant, they made us feel like we were eating in a restaurant in Rome, everything was organized , clean, a pleasant and very calm atmosphere, I recommend it 100%, the olive oil cake is such an exquisite thing, the mortadella with pistachio is an Italian product, the flavor is somewhat indescribable, the cheeses are wow, I really loved it and we are sure to return, Thanks to the Chef and his team for the attention and service!“

While the food was delicious and the overall ambiance and decor of the restaurant was cozy, it was our server that made this dining experience over the top, great! HECTOR, you are a gem, a diamond! You have an absolutely charming personality and made my mother in law’s birthday dinner an experience to remember! From your spot on suggestions, to your lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday”, to the funny banter, our whole family left talking about how wonderful you were! We will be back and we will be sure to come when you are serving! Thank you Hector!!!“

The service was horrible with our waitress she forgot a plate forgot brought the bread after the pasta, arrived forgot the cup of lemonade for my kid, the food took longer than expected to arrive luckily we ordered appetizers I normally don't ever complain but she was bad very upset but we still tipped her and the supervisor or manager gave us a plate to go, bread and a free sangria their sangria is amazing too! Parking was ok bathroom was clean the bus boys served us better thn our actual waitress to the point that the table next to us even noticed how they took a while for our food we were there way before everyone else and were served last but anyway we found a good waiter that when we return we will ask for Pepe he is amazing and helped too so shout out to Pepe and the busboys there they were amazing
Definitely check this place out!!! Everything was 5 stars but our waitress ohhh their bruschettas were delicious too!!“

“The food is delicious!! The staff friendly and very attentive. They help make the whole experience. The atmosphere is so warm and comfortable. I love an hour west of the city but if I will be in Chicago for dinner, it will be at Tuscany. 💚🤍❤️“

“Fast, delicious and even though they are usually busy it’s so good and they get your food to you quickly!“

“an instant superstar in this community, people will come from near and far for this quality of Italian.“

“You know a restaurant is good when you start planning your return visit before you've even finished your meal“

“Its been decades since I had a breaded steak sandwich. To give you perspective, last time I had a breaded steak sandwich was in early 1990s when there was a Ricobenes on Lake Street in The Loop, at street level, downstairs from a Nevada Bob’s. If you know about this, then you are Gen X!!

This place was recommended by a close friend and it was fantastic!!! It’s a solid 4.6⭐️s!!

From what I recall, this breaded steak sandwich is just about as tasty as I have had since Ricobenes. Tony’s is excellent and messy as I have expected. Its very filling and well worth the price.

Also tried their italian beef, which was very good indeed. Balanced spices and saltiness was all there!!! But I do have my favorites that I lean on when I really need a fixin!!! But this was very good nonetheless.

This neighborhood joint is small and has limited seating, but the friendly staff made the dine-in meal a pleasant experience, albeit a bit confined. Most patrons order take-away. Will try to make it out again next time I am in the Midway area.“

“We see why the Chicken Parm Pannino is a favorite! Great sandwich served with thin cut crispy fries. Left full and yet wanting more! 😋“

“First time I went was tonight and it was magnifico. Excellent service not too busy and cozy. Great food. I will definitely get back and have another meal there really recommended.“

“Wonderfully Dinner. The service was just really awesome and the food excellent.
The Pumpkin Ravioli was a huge hit and the Squash Blossoms.
Nice little neighborhood restaurant that feels very comfortable.
Don't miss it!“

“So delicious the pasta 🍝 love it 💕“

“Nice ambiance! Great food.“

“My favorite Italian restaurant! I have been coming here since I was in high school-very very many years ago! Delicious Northern Italian cuisine with old world service in a most charming atmosphere. I'm just s little sad that during the latest renovation they weren't able to find a way to install an elevator. Those stairs are killer if you're mildly impaired and impossible for wheelchair bound“

“Food is delicious and big portions, reasonably priced.“

“Thank you for a very exceptional meal, with so much flavour. You made a special vegan meal for me that wasn't on the menu. Italian hospitality, truly. I was supposed to get married to an Italian man this weekend, but he died in March. He prepared the eggplant as you served it last night, and my heart sang after tasting it. Thank you very much, and once again, thank you very much.“

“This neighborhood gem in Bridgeport was top notch on everything I've tasted here. Excellent food, excellent service and nice atmosphere. The flavor was just decadent. We started with some awesome Stuffed Clams. For the entrees we had Chicken Marsala, Chicken Parmigiano, Chicken Rositto with spinach. A beautiful meal was complete with desserts of Tiramasu, Gelato and Flour less Chocolate Cake. The experience ended with me in a totally blissful food coma. Thank you 😊 Gios!“

“Love this new for me tasty omg takecare uslike a VIP excellent service quality and oldiest place wonderful“

“Delicious!!! Definitely worth the price we paid 😁“

“This was their last day open before turning into a banquet type facility for groups of 10 and more. It was busy, but we were sat at a table that had a cool breeze passing, so our food cooled off too quick, especially the shrimp scampi appetizer. The food was good overall.“

“Amazing atmosphere, great food and services. I was impressed with the taste of each dish we ordered. We will definitely come back.“

“Excellent food, great service, knowledgeable waitress“

“We were there Saturday for the Roman experience! Not bad there we’re 4 of us. We were celebrating a birthday! Spend $400.00 and you would think they would acknowledge the birthday! No not at all ! No acknowledgment all!!! But I have to say they did say happy birthday!! When we leaving!! What would it cost the restaurant to send a piece of cake over! Maybe 5.00 after we spent 400.00 No more celebration there I tell you!“
