50 Best Italian Restaurants near Romeoville

“Gia made my experience absolutely wonderful! She’s an absolute gem! Great atmosphere and best sub sandwich I’ve ever had!“

“I ordered a calzone & fried mushrooms and as a first time customer, I was satisfied. The calzone is at least three servings & the mushrooms were fried crispy and both items were delicious. The marinara was also great. I’ll try the pizza next visit.“

“OMG. Best beef! Also the hot peppers were yummy... not the standard hot peppers as they also include sliced jalepenos in with the giardiniera! Nice surprise for my first time there and it was $5.99 on Tuesday. I will be returning, particularly for the other daily lunch specials! Love that my work is so close. 😉“

“My favorite dishes are the Spicy shrimp polenta and the Garlic gnocchi...amazing! My favorite place to eat!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our team had the absolute BEST experience at La Sorella di Francesca! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, the food was incredible, and the service was next-level. A huge shoutout to Donny Greco, who went above and beyond to make us feel right at home—like we were dining with family. It’s rare to find that kind of genuine hospitality and care these days. If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with heartfelt service, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!“

“We always enjoy the food here. This family owned business uses fresh ingredients and it shows. You must give it a try. 😊“

“Andy is the best. He has great staff. The food is AMAZING!!! We go as often as possible!!!“

“We’ve lived in the area for over 8 years and finally stopped here for dinner. The food was delicious - huge portions, the specials include soup and salad and the amazing service from Paulette was absolutely wonderful. I had the ribs - yummy and they fall off the bone. My husband had the chicken Alfredo. He loved it and the portion was huge! Great bang for the buck too. Beer and wine only but that’s all we needed.“

“Check see & please tell ?“

“Wonderful place to dine., food was delicious and our server, Fidel, was thee BEST ever! Will definitely return when I’m in Illinois again.“

“I’d like to think that if I had a Nonna, she’d be welcoming and never fail to overfeed me. Her food would be hearty and flavorful and she’d never let me leave empty handed. Well, Mamma Onesta’s is as close as I’ll ever get to having a Nonna of my own. Mamma Onesta’s was cozy with the most hospitable staff. She’s situated on the cutest corner of downtown Lockport. Her food is outstanding and the portions are unbelievable. Give this little family business a try - you wont be disappointed!“

“Tom brunick funeral there today great time“

“Angeli’s had been our go-to for showers and funeral. We lost my Dad this month and they were so accommodating. Thank you so much for being a part of our family.“

“It’s a nice place to eat. Unfortunately there was a party of 10 celebrating a birthday. They was very loud and obnoxious. Couldn’t really enjoy the atmosphere. Staff didn’t tell them to lower their voices. Maybe they need a special room away from the front so that other paying customers can enjoy their meals and conversations.“

“You can’t beat the quality of the dishes they make…from scratch!! Best subs in the state and the chicken parmigiana is out of this world. Mike and his boys definitely get hospitality! Go now and get some!!“

“We were there for dinner on 5/3. We informed the waiter that we have a garlic allergy. They prepared all of our food separately with no garlic, even making special salad dressing. First time we have been out to eat without pain afterward from garlic! Thank you for your excellent service and accommodation.“

“Best pizza in the world. we don't go anywhere else“

“My family took me to Piccolo Bucco for my birthday and we all liked it.

We sat in their 4 season patio area, we went at 3pm and it was the perfect time to sit and enjoy each others company with out it being packed and we did not feel rushed. At night I imagine it’s much more romantic as they had lights on the ceiling with vines and lemons. Cute set up!

We had 6 people-
I made reservations online- no wait-they were very accommodating with moving a chair and having us close to the door bc I’m in a wheelchair and it can get tricky with aisles etc.

(I can’t remember exact names of the food)
Spicy calamari was good
We tried the fried stuffed squash blossom and those who tried it really liked it.
They have 2 flavors of slushie sangria right now
Peach and passion fruit
We liked the peach, didn’t try the other one

They do have bread but it is more like a warm flat bread- we had 6 people and only got 5 pieces and it was not complimentary. It was ok - we liked the spicy dipping sauce it came with
We didn’t try any pizza this time but we are definitely going to next time.
I tried their Cacio e Pepe and it was good, there’s a lot of pepper (big part of the dish)
The start of the show- all 6 of us agreed- chicken Parmesan is excellent
Rigatoni alla spicy vodka sauce with sausage - it’s the last item on the left side of the menu-very good! Under entrees

I got a free gelato since it was my bday and I chose the chocolate hazelnut and it was so good! Even had a few crunchy nuts and a biscotti

The table shared a piece of chocolate hazelnut cake and that was very delicious

The set up was nice, great place for a date, family dinner, business lunch- I think just about any reason to meet up- this place is great!

You could totally split a pizza or an entree if you were looking to spend a little less money.

They also offer wine flights, wine tasting (like at Cooper’s hawk)

There’s an outside area between this place and Ruths Chris steak house. It’s a public area so no alcoholic drinks are allowed but it’s a great place to sit on a nice day - they had chairs, benches and a few Adirondack chairs

All together we give it an 8/10 and plan to go again!“

“Always accommodating!!!!!!“

“Consistently great pizza we have been ordering from here for years. Several out of town family members always request we order from Little Italian when they’re in town too.“

“My husband and I had a great time here for his birthday dinner. We were instantly greeted when we walked in. The service was great the whole time and the food was amazing. We will definitely be back!“

“If I wasn't battling with my weight, I would eat here every day! The food is amazing, pizza's to die for, and the breaded steak sandwich (oh dear lord!)... you don't even know what you're missing till you've ordered from here!... Consistently delicious!!! 😋😋😋😋😋“

“Food is Awesome. Delivered in a half hour“

“Great Pizza! Ok Service. Nice atmosphere“

“I love the food, the family, the friendship, and the courage to take risks in private enterprise. So happy ? for them building a superb menus. I’m delighted to spread the word to have friends enjoy the benefits of great food. If they raised prices I’d still keep ordering!“

“The best tasting pizza in Woodridge! We love your pizza! I had the meatball sandwich with mozzarella the other day and it was so delicious, bread was fresh, marinara sauce always on point..I highly recommend trying the meatball sandwich and always the pizza“

“Had an incredible experience here. Loved every minute of it!...from food to service, you guys are great! Much love from Canada!“

“Zazzo’s has the BEST Cauliflower Crust Pizza hands down- better than any thin crust pizza I’ve ever had- Their service & their bartenders are awesome they know what we drink and know what we order - We love being regulars! Stephanie, Carrie & Hannah are the best- try their Cauliflower Crust Pizza you won’t be disappointed. LH & TH“

“Started ordering from here and I have to say the meatball sandwich is fantastic. The pizza is very good as well. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed!!“

“Lou's is one of our favorite pizza restaurants. Unfortunately, our last visit did not live up to our previous ones. The Lou''s deep dish pizza had a crust that was very tough. The server could hardly cut it and we could not cut it with out knives without a lot of muscle and sawing motions. The server did not come back to serve us our subsequent slices, as most do. Also, it was one of our guests birthday's and the server brought out a mini cookie with ice cream and whipped cream, which was nice. We noticed other tables had a cherry and a candle on top. And the noise level was really high.“

“Excellent Burgers & their pizza is the bomb diggity! I was pleasantly surprised, because I'm a pizza snob. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Drove by this place and decided to grab a pizza from here for family dinner Friday. So glad I did! The thin crust veggie was amazing. Perfect balance of cheese to sauce ratio. Would totally go back!!“
