16 Best Italian Restaurants near Olathe

“Some restaurants have good food, and some have great service. It's rare to find both in one place, but that's exactly what we found at Johnny's Italian Steakhouse in Olathe.
My girlfriend and I came in looking for a nice dinner together, and we left talking about how great the entire experience was. Amy was our waitress, and she genuinely made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. She wasn't just doing her job—she was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our evening. You can tell she truly cares about the people she serves.
I had the Heart of Italy Combination, and every bite was excellent. My girlfriend ordered the Chubby Cut Top Sirloin with the Parmesan crust, and after trying a bite, I completely understood why she loved it. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the Parmesan crust took it to another level.
Thank you, Amy, for making what could have been just another dinner into a memorable date night. We'll definitely be back, and we hope to see you again. Johnny's has earned two returning customers.“

“This establishment is always good, but today it was outstanding. Came for early dinner, and everything was in place and prepared for customers. Server was familiar and struck the right balance of immediate presence with privacy. The timing for our various courses was unhurried. In all, it was a deeply satisfying dinner.“

“We visited Minsky's on Ridgeview and 105th on June 3, 2026. The service was great! The atmosphere was very nice. We sat outside and enjoyed the music. The food was delicious. I especially liked the $7.99 deal. You get a large piece of pizza, salad and a drink. Their pizza is the best. Ashley was our waitress and she took great care of us.“

“pizza and salad combos to go“

“The food was great and the prices were even better. They have great kids options and great desserts. The best part of it all is that the meal came with complimentary, all you can eat in breadsticks. Breadsticks are so soft and fluffy. I highly recommend“

“Riccos is the only place I know where I can go order a BLT the bacon is so crispy without asking for it to be prepared that way. It’s amazing! Tonight the tomatoes were clearly homegrown. It was the best BLT you can get in Kansas City. The Keylime martini is one of my favorites you can’t go wrong at Riccos.“

“We tried Imo's for the very first time tonight on our way back home. We all loved it, including our tired and picky children. The food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean and looked great. The lady at the front was one of the most pleasant people we have ever met. She was very helpful, patient, and super sweet. We will definitely be back when we're in this part of Missouri.“

“Friends took me out for my 91st birthday and I requested Paulo's. Been there many times for 45 years. Always order chicken Piccata. Had garlic bread which was excellent. My order came and There was about a full cup of mashed potatoes with a small chicken breast on it. About 2". Chicken was not very tender and I ate the lunch in about 5 bites. Cost $16. no veggies or salad. Gentleman came over and asked how everything was and I told him . Portion was so small. He was very nice and took my lunch price off the bill. I will be back one more time because I really always liked it there. Also had lunch at 2:30 and no one else there but 3 people at the bar. I hope there is some improvement in the portions of some memu items in the future.“
