26 Best Italian Restaurants near East Moline

“Delicious pizza and friendly service!“

“Recently moved to the Quad Cities and have been so excited to try Alfano's! Did not disappoint! The calzones are massive and stuffed full of toppings. The sauce is seasoned wonderfully, the cheese is perfect, and the veggies are fresh. Alfano's will definitely be my new regular pizza place!“

“Very friendly and attentive staff. Food was delicious.“

“Great old fashioned food. Great service.“

“I was anxious to have lunch today, as Biaggis is a favorite. I have not dined since their redo. It was AMAZING. Our bartender waitress was the best. Food was over the top and the bar area redo is just perfect!!“

“We are from out of town and wanted something close to our hotel. The food and service were top notch! Can’t say enough about this place. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely return.“

“Wonderful food & atmosphere! 100% recommend💖“

“Hands down best breakfast in the QC.. come every Sunday!!! Nothing compares“

“My husband and I have eaten here three times, and everything is perfection! Each meal is high-quality and delicious. The bread they serve is like none other I’ve had, so now I’m craving it all the time. My daughter-in-law and I consider ourselves experts on what a Cosmo drink should taste like, and we both rated the cosmos here as the best ones we’ve had. The atmosphere is inviting, beautiful and happy, just like the owner who’s there every time we show up. This place is now on our rotation of favorite restaurants.“

“Wednesday January 18th 2023 we were seated at our table after 45 minutes no one had come to ask what we wanted to drink or eat the waitress walked by us many times but never stopped then she went to people who were seated after us and waited on them we got up and left will never come back“

“One of the few places the entire family can agree on. Always fresh and consistent. Tortellini and the garlic bread is my personal favorite. ❣️“

“Dough is unique, deliciously savory and always perfectly balanced with a hint of sweetness and has the perfect texture that, I think, is superior to any other similar ‘Quad-Cities style’ pizza places. The pizza is absolutely amazing, but the real treasures are their calzones. For me, it’s their eggplant calzone. Eggplant can be tricky, but they slice it very thinly, use an excellent breading, fry it to perfection and layer it with creamy ricotta & rich mozzarella wrapped in that amazing dough, though occasionally they’ll not use enough filling (so, I order extra eggplant & cheese, just to be safe.) When combined with their ‘calzone sauce’ (on the side, a perfect match, bold & rich, similar to an amazing marinara but their own take, and I think it’s necessary for the full experience), it is one of my favorite meals. I’ve had pizza & calzones in so many states and cities, so many styles and varieties, but I always end up craving Pizza & Subs above all others when I’m in the mood for that. Pro tip: add eggplant to some of their pizzas, such as their garden. Another nice thing, they actually still deliver themselves, not using some service, and they deliver surprisingly quickly most of the time, for a very reasonable fee, and the people are always kind and friendly. Unfortunately, they changed their hours in the past few years and close much earlier than most pizza places, which can often be frustrating. Sometimes they’ll close randomly due to staffing issues or things that come up beyond their control. And their website is literally years out of date, and always reminds me of how much they’ve raised their prices when I go to look at their menu... But, it’s a family run joint that makes amazing food, so accepting those things is necessary even if it means I don’t get food from them as often as I used to. Otherwise, I can’t recommend Pizza & Subs highly enough as something uniquely amazing that I hope remains open for generations to come. Just wish they were able to stay open later, and their prices went down. It’s worth the splurge sometimes, though, and their pizzas are quite loaded with toppings. 🤷‍♂️“

“We had such a great experience thanks to our waitress, Toni. She treated us so well from the moment we sat down—so kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Her hospitality was honestly above and beyond. It’s not often you meet someone who makes your whole visit feel special, but Toni absolutely did.

We will definitely be coming back just to see her. She’s a true gem and made our time here unforgettable. Highly recommend asking for Toni!“

“Please show this place some love!! Absolutely amazing food and the service was top knotch. Im sure they are struggling with the road construction around their building. 10/10 recommend.“

“Let me start off by saying I have a food allergy to onion's. I what I ordered had onion, I did tell the waitress I have a food allergy. They brought out the food, right after that the management came out to tell the beans have onion in it and changed the beans for extra rice. Now to me that is awesome. I love when a restaurant will come out and say something. 5 STARS 🌟 all the way“

“Had a great lunch at Pagalo’s. We had a large group, service was great and the food was even better. Can’t beat the lunch special, choice of two items - individual pizza, soup or a salad for $10.99. We’ll be back and next time will save room for gelato. Well done, Pagalo’s!“

“I have never been unhappy with anything that I have ordered. Their food is great. I always order delivery because I'm handicapped, and the food is hot and delicious when it's delivered.“

“We LOVE Tony’s! While the pizza is really good, we come specifically for the onion rings, Mac & cheese bites, ranch dressing, cheese sauce & fries & chicken Alfredo. The first time I took a bite of the Alfredo I said “oh sweet Lord,” I could not believe how delicious it was. Way better than Olive Garden! The service is typically great, we didn’t have the best server one of the times we went but it’s usually great! We love the atmosphere as well, but especially during Christmas! Such great decor, it makes the experience even better when it’s not bare minimum! Definitely try this place if you haven’t already, such a great local eat!“

“yummy 🇺🇸🦅🏡👷‍♀️⛽💯‼️🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕“

“I believe they use prefab crusts, but they are pretty good.“

“Celebrated our parents’ 65th wedding anniversary here. I can’t express how awesome the staff was in making it a memorable day!“

“Cheap prices, great food, kid friendly“

“We used Happy Joe’s for our employee lunch. The food was ready to go when ordered and tasted great. Thanks so much for the good food!“

“A group of men get together on Wednesday's for lunch and comaraderie 3 of us ordered walleye and the other 2 ordered Chicken both orders came with salad bar and everyone enjoyed the time we had together the staff and owner's were all really great 😃👍“

“I like the food. It works well occasionally if I need to feed the kids quickly and I’m short on time. The last two times I’ve been here it has taken FOREVER. I also do not think the pizza is worth the price hike I’ve seen in little ceasars.“

“I ordered a pizza with extra mushrooms. When the Pizza Hut staff handed me the order (carry out), they informed me that they were not happy with the pizza and asked me to wait for them to make another one. The problem seemed to be that there was a normal amount of mushrooms and not the extra I had paid for. I had not even seen the pizza at this time. I agreed to wait and they whipped out a new one with the appropriate amount of mushrooms. The attendant gave me the first pizza as compensation for the wait time. Overall it was a great experience; not only because I received an extra pizza, but mainly because the attendant took ownership of the mishap. Thank you Pizza Hut for caring for your customers!“
