I wish the food had lived up to how nice the owner/chef is - didn't really feel like any type of Italian cuisine that I normally enjoy (been to Italy 4 times!), but maybe suited for other's pallets. Might try again given other's reviews.

I attended an event that was catered with Black Italian. Food was excellent. The salad and dressing were incredible--I know it doesn't seem like much but I wanted to drink the dressing. The fruit lemonade was also amazing! I'm a vegetarian and there were veggie options available which was standard fare.

This place is the best!! The owners and staff are very friendly and personable. Their food is absolutely delicious. If you need someone to cater your next party/gathering, look no further than The Black Italian. They can do it all! Truly, they deliver quality food, quality service, and always with a smile on their faces. I have not once had a bad experience here and I think it is due to their dedication to provide Louisville with super tasty and affordable food. Do yourself a favor and try them if you haven’t. I promise you will leave with a smile on your face, a full belly, and you will feel like you are part of The Black Italian family. Much love and many thanks ??????

The Black Italian catered our Teacher Appreciation Lunch today and it was hands-down the best Italian food I've ever had. The Creamy Garlic Formaggio Pasta with the flame grilled chicken bites might be my new favorite meal! Thank you so much for all that you do for our community! We will definitely find a way to order from you all soon!

I had never heard of this restaurant until a family member from out of state sent me a link as a suggestion to cater our grandson’s first birthday party. We were expecting 80 people (adults and children) - he is a miracle baby and this was a big celebration! We wanted to make sure there was enough food that both adults and children would enjoy. Paula was so patient and gracious to us as we went back and forth about what we wanted, even changing the menu at the last minute. She was also extremely helpful and gave us the perfect suggestions for a crowd our size, with something for everyone. She even made a low sodium option for my husband who is on a renal diet. We ended up with two pasta dishes and two kinds of panini sliders, with garlic bread bites and a complimentary tray of cookies. Everything was incredibly delicious, and we had tons of food! Everyone raved about it and commented it was like food at a wedding reception. The panini sliders were a huge hit! This is not your typical Italian food - it is high quality cuisine, and you can tell it is “made with love” as my husband says - and very reasonably priced especially for the quality. Lastly, Paula’s husband, Anthony, delivered the meal all the way to Bernheim Forest where we had the event. We were running behind and it was so chaotic when he got there - but he was so gracious and helpful, and even brought a birthday gift Paula had gotten for our grandson! Our entire experience with them was wonderful. They served us well, and we’ll definitely go back. They are busy, so if you don’t get a call back, be patient - it will be well worth the wait!Dietary restrictions: Low sodium options available.

We ordered catering for a 40th birthday dinner and WOW! Everything was so delicious. The owners are so sweet and communication was wonderful. Will definitely be using them again in the future! Absolutely recommend!

Tens across the board every single time!!! The Black Italian not only has delicious food but also amazing service. The owners are the most warm and welcoming people you’ll ever meet! My family and I are OBSESSED with the Formaggio with Chicken pasta (and obsessed may be an understatement)! I can’t think of anything negative to say about this place, not even in the slightest. Whether you order take out or catering you will be pleased. I leap at the chance to sing praises about them and I know once you try them you’ll do the same!

I can’t rave enough about the delicious food at The Black Italian! Specifically, the Creamy Garlic Formaggio pasta with Chicken; my family and I order it regularly! Please know you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Also, the owners are so kind, warm and welcoming! They treat you like family and therefore will always have my support and a special place in my heart!

Best pasta I’ve had in my life! No exaggeration! I had the Creamy Garlic Formaggio Pasta - Petite Portion. And man! Every flavor was savoring.It was so good that I had to share mine with a friend just so they could see how good it was!
Katherine McInerny
Awesome food, and really awesome people! The specials we had were a veggie packed creamy stroganoff and perfectly spiced chicken meatballs, that both came with just the right amount of fresh garlic bread-we will be back soon for more!

Paula and Anthony were great to work with to set up a company lunch. They were very helpful with building our catering order and making sure that it fit all of our needs. And the food was delicious! Highly highly recommend

I held a recognition luncheon for my team. Our company had used them previously and the team had requested them. We also are more than happy to support a black owed and prominently woman based establishment. Paula made the ordering effortless and had our food personally delivered!! Love the customer service and the high quality of food. We will definitely help us again, in the very near future. Oh, the grilled meatballs…amazing!
