9 Best Italian Restaurants near Plainfield

“When we come into Indy for the Indy mini half marathon, we always stay at the same hotel over by Nonna‘s so Italian so we could get our carbs in the night before. Well, this last weekend we were there for a family wedding and we ordered a pizza ahead so we could have it when we got to the hotel. It was all perfect till I got to the hotel and they called me to tell me we received the wrong pizza two people with the same last name ordered at the same time. They were so gracious and let us keep the pizza we had even though it was probably more expensive than what we had ordered, but we didn’t have much time to wait or return it. So gracious of them to make it so easy on us and let me tell you that pizza was delicious.“

“Back for a limited time! Brazed beef cheese tortellini. O my God it is the best. I used to have it when it was a regular menu item. Now its back hopefully that limited time is my lifetime! This dish is one of the best ( in my opinion) thank you for bringing it back!“

“Had a lovely date night dinner tonight, was greeted when we entered, seated quickly, bread and oil was brought, drinks, friendly staff, cozy casual atmosphere and the food was plentiful and so flavorful… enough for take home!“

“I placed a same-day dinner catering order at the Avon location and was extremely pleased with how it turned out! I set our pick up time for 6:00PM, and when we arrived at 5:55PM the staff was just finishing up packaging it -we appreciated that it was ready at 6PM and wasn't sitting out getting cold. Portions were very generous and everyone commented that they enjoyed their food. We'll be back when we need another large family dinner!“

“I ate here since I was staying at the Wyndham. This is the in house restaurant. I initially did not have high expectations for how it would go because it took a few minutes for anyone to come to the host stand, and when they did, they said they had gotten “a little busy” (despite the place not appearing anywhere near full) and suggested I sit at the bar for better service. So I did, and it was very smooth from there. My bartender was excellent, attentive and warm but not at all overbearing. Food didn’t take too long either. I think I was in and out with a drink, entree, and dessert within an hour.
I got the Overhead Light cocktail to drink (Beefeater gin, crème de violette, maraschino liqueur). I usually get beer when I drink but this cocktail sounded good, and I did not regret my choice. Very floral and very strong.
I had the grilled salmon entree and cheesecake chimichanga for dessert. I really liked the sweet chili glaze on the salmon. Everything was cooked well. The dish as a whole could have used more seasoning, but it was easily redeemable with some black pepper. The rice pilaf was more flavorful than it looked - it tasted like there was parmesan cheese in there which made it pleasantly creamy. The cheesecake chimichanga was also great. It looks expensive, but it is a large portion that would be ideal to share even if I did manage to clear the plate by myself. I loved the crispy wraps with the cream cheese and strawberry sauce inside, and it actually wasn’t too overwhelmingly sweet.
Prices seem to run a little high. I thought the price for my entree was fair, and other entrees seemed to also be reasonably priced for what they were, but the drinks and desserts were expensive than expected.
It was really loud inside even though the place was only about half full. It didn’t help that the Wyndham lobby also had a loud group in it and the sound carried. The place would greatly benefit from some sound panels in the ceiling or on the walls. It’s an exposed ceiling and all hard surfaces and sound just bounces around.
I wouldn’t say the food was anything to write home about and probably wouldn’t recommend it if you’re local since Indy has plenty of more impressive eateries at this price point, but if you’re staying at one of the airport hotels and want somewhere convenient but classy, this might be your place.“

“My wife and I like to just take off to a random town close and visit a Resteraunt that is not a chain Resteraunt . So Italian exceeded all of the expectations we had . Service from staff was on point and friendly . Menu was easy to navigate . Food was awesome !! Definitely a 10 out of 10 on all levels . Will be recommending and visiting again .“

“The best pizza in the country!! I really love this place!!“

“One of my favorite place to eat in Indy!
Update: after many years of being a loyal customer, while the service is still great, and the atmosphere is still ok. I believe it's time for a refresh. The food is lackluster and the atmosphere, while still nice, is definitely showing its age. I look forward to hearing that this place has decided to do an update. Because as of now,I don't look forward to coming back anytime soon.“

“Soooo good! Some of the best Pizza we've had!!! 🥰😍🍕“
