20 Best Italian Restaurants near Sherman

“I had been aware of Rico's since they opened but never had the opportunity to try one of their Pizzas. Now that I have, all I can say is, EXCELLENT PIZZA! Probably the best in the Springfield area! This is Pizza made by people that CARE about the Pizza they serve to you, and if that means anything to you, there will be no disappointment. If you love great Pizza, do yourself a favor and try one.“

“Saturday was our Anniversary, we had such a wonderful meal with outstanding service. We will definately be back. 😊❤️“

“A very cozy place with an ordering counter and a sit-down dining room if you're sticking around. Despite the counter service, the staff was lovely, welcoming, and attentive. They brought fresh bread to the table, unfortunately with a small to-go cup with a small drizzle of olive oil and another of pre-grated parm. A slightly more generous cup of olive oil would have been nice. The carbonara pasta would have been good off the bat if they had properly seasoned it, but some of the extra parm and a generous dose of black pepper got it there in the end. The pizza was the star of the night. Chewy dough with really good gluten development, very nice sauce that was balanced and a nice contrast to the cheese, and quality toppings that weren't too much or too little. Was very tempted by the cannoli in the case, but I will leave it to others to try as I was stuffed. Could be a great place but needs to tighten it up a bit. Would try again though if just for pizza and to try that cannoli.“

“Got a pizza at Mario’s on Piper Glen tonight and it was delicious! I wanted to make sure the pizza guy, Alvin got a shout out! Thanks for the great pizza!“

“I needed something more than simple sustenance. Shall I go to Texas Roadhouse, Cracker Barrel, or where?

I decided on ole reliable Olive Garden as I wanted a salad and something more but not break my pocketbook.

I knew a couple of my favorites are always available but took a chance on Steak Gargonzola Alfredo. While I'm not a blue cheese fan, and the wonderful waitress (Katy?) cautioned me that it is a strong blue cheese, I decided to try something different. You only go around once in life...

Started out with the salad and extra dressing, and of course, bread sticks with butter on the side. Lately I do drink water with a lot of lemon, and she didn't disappoint.

Then came the main event. As I like to sample things and get a taste of it all, I cut up the steak bites into smaller pieces so I would have a price of meat with each batch of Alfredo, and...

It WAS VERY GOOD!

Great service.

Plenty of salad and bread sticks.

Water refilled before I ran out.

And, the entrée was excellent.

In the future I would suggest a tad more Alfredo sauce and a little more spinach BUT I am stuffed, satisfied and relaxed.

Thank you Kate and crew.“

“I’m trying everything once!“

“Food and staff are outstanding! It was very busy at both lunch and dinner times, but it's fast and delicious! It's a small place but both times I've been, we've found a table within a few mins. Food is absolutely worth it!“

“best Italian restaurant Ever.“

“All recommendations were phenomenal!“

“Used to go here a lot. Have tried it several times recently and it's pretty ok. Got it to go and went in to pick it up and was handed what clearly wasn't our complete order. I asked them to double check it and they took it away and came back and said they checked EVERYTHING again and it was all there. Got home... it wasn't. Disappointing.“

“We ordered our first pizza tonight while getting a tattoo at Electric Quill!! This place is delicious to say the least. We will be back!!“

“My wife and I were there last evening, Saturday, March the 22nd., and there were well over forty of us in the group. The atmosphere was perfect, and the service was perfection. In addition to that, the owner of the restaurant was genuine and helpful, and an extremely wonderful person. I wish everyone was just like her! We will most definitely be returning there!

“The best food & service! The restaurant is always clean.“

“This was our 1st time eating at this establishment today as we’re from Peoria. We ordered pizza and a calzone! The pizza is the best we’ve ever had!!! My daughters, grandson and I absolutely loved this place! They were absolutely so kind and we felt so comfortable! Mama Rosa, she warms my heart with kindness! Thank you to all for giving us a great experience and we will definitely be back! Highly recommend!!!!❤️🇮🇹“

“Food is delicious. The atmosphere is very inviting. Our waitress was phenomenal and the entire staff made you feel welcome. This was my first time there and it won’t be my last.“

“It was a busy night when our group of 15 came for a year-end celebration. We were one of three big groups plus the usual customers. There were only three waitresses on staff that night so service was slow; but she did a great job getting all of her tables waited on and hot orders out.Food is always excellent.“

“Major improvement
Staff were friendly and fast. Food was hot and ready on time.
Will be back more frequently .
Very accommodating patio set up ,indoor and outdoor seating available.
The home run burger is a big winner..“

“Great place, great food, awesome people!

Beer prices are entirely WAY too high. $13.00 for a 40 oz pitcher of Busch Light is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of.

The pizza is killer, and you should definitely try the fried pepperoni as a topping or an appetizer. You won't be disappointed.

Wait staff is always awesome!

Definitely recommended. Drink soda. ?“

“I have very fond memories of Joe's over the years - even driving by brings a smile to my face. So the nostalgia coupled with the amazing pizza brings it to 5 stars for me. The service is hit-or-miss depending on who helps you but its really never been the friendliest place to order from. My most recent order was hot & ready in the 45 minutes quoted and the young man who brought the order out was very nice. While they make a solid pizza with good crust and a sweeter sauce, don't pass over the lasagna - it is delicious!“

“Great pizza and salad. Fast delivery.“
