24 Best Italian Restaurants near Framingham

“Scott gave us fantastic service! He appeared to be the only server this afternoon but you would never know it—he was so quick and attentive. He put us at a quiet table as requested, then got our order right in, refills on drinks, rolls, and then automatically got us a second pizza to take home as he said the first one didn’t come out the way he wanted it to.. we were so lucky to have him today—thank you Scott for giving us such a wonderful dining experience!!“

“Always great food and service!“

“you took all the Italian food that made you what you were, a great Italian restaurant. Now you are just another mediocre restaurant with hummus and meh food and $$$$$ Bad choice. Where is the gnocchi??? and everyone has veal and chicken parmesan... not impressed“

“My wife and I have been to multiple Olive Gardens over the years. But our experience today at the Framingham, MA restaurant was by far the best. It started at the entrance with Joseph greeting us with such friendliness and sincerity. Then it continued with Sylvia our waitress. She also was friendly and sincere, along with attentive. Joseph and Sylvia set the tone for a wonderful dining experience. I hope the general manager reads this review and relays it to Joseph and Sylvia. The food was delicious as always. The vanilla ice coffee was incredible.“

“The pizza is amazing!! Besides that I took my 79 yr old father and you can stay and eat. It’s handicap accessible. Bubba’s pizza is out of this world and his staff is so friendly and courteous. I recommend this place to kids and adults of all ages!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Very great pizza tastes super good better than sbarro my husband and I travel alot we are truck drivers. We both just had this today for the first time and wow so very delicious it may look greasy and you have to fold to eat but that's not a bad thing in our opinion this is the best. It is a bit pricey but that's anything at a truck/travel stop. I couldn't understand all the people waiting at the McDonald's next door when this delicious pizza is just hanging out a few feet away lol my husband and myself paid $14.85 we both had a slice of pepperoni the size of the slice is great it fills you up that's for sure. And I want to say the people working here are very polite and nice and helpful also.“

“Great food, friendly and knowledgeable staff!! Gluten free selection to keep my wife happily fed also which is sometimes hard!!!“

“Excellent people exc food great prices!“

“🍾🍸 🦪 Great Food & Cocktails!“

“Great cocktails, nice bar“

“We are “regulars” at the 89 which means we dine there at least once or twice a week! The food, the severs, the bartenders and the owners are all amazing!! They know “who gets” without asking. They space out courses perfectly, yet they are there when you need them. They never make you feel rushed but check periodically to see if you need anything! We have never had a disappointing meal and we have tried most everything on the menu as well as the weekly specials! From the house made soups to the fresh pastas, entrees and amazing desserts you cannot go wrong. If you haven’t been there and are looking for an outstanding dining experience try 89!! It won’t disappoint!“

“Came in today with the family, and we were admittedly quite impatient. The host was so incredibly articulate and she made our culinary experience ten times better. Highly recommend Emily, she is phenomenal at her job and we will come back!!“

“We stopped in today because we were in town for another reason and skeptically asked whether they had anything for vegans (you can't tell quickly from looking at the menu). The kind person behind the counter was genuinely happy to tell us they had great vegan cheese, we should get a pizza - - we did and we LOVED it, just like my favorite NY pizza. The nicest thing was that they really wanted us to be happy, and we were. Thank you, we will make a drive to be back!“

“The food and service was outstanding. We were greeted by the owner,John Testa, he oversees the whole operation. Huge portions, a well balanced plate (not too heavy on the pasta) the Italian Chop Salad for two can feed four. The waitstaff are friendly and efficient. Looking forward to going back .“

“While we loved the old Giorgio's, the new owners (Karina and Fabio, plus their #1 employee, Bruno) are incredibly nice and make equally awesome (but different) pizza! Plus they have a far more expansive menu! We had the shredded chicken pizza with a half and half dessert pizza (who knew?), and everything was fantastic! I'm happy to add to the sea of 5 star reviews and look forward to sampling more of their menu!“

“I give this place 5 stars!! Love this place!! They have great specials everyday, great service, very reasonably priced and they deliver your food to your table super fast also!! If you’re in the area, DEFINITELY check this place out!!! 😃“

“Late lunch. One of three people there. The other guys there where friendly and great to talk to. They told me everything there is made fresh, and pizza dough is made daily. The bartender Amy was personable, fun, and great! Met one of the owners too. Nice guy. All around great experience and food was excellent.
Highly recommend 👌“

“Never been disappointed with the menu choices and even their Specials they offer for day to day afternoon lunch, appetizers in the later afternoon and the evening option of specials and of course their red wine sangria is the best 🍷👍. Thank you also to the friendly atmosphere and staff! Love live entertainment on Wednesday evenings but maybe perhaps On a Saturday afternoon/evening where I would love to sit outside with family or friends! Thanks again ~ this girls loves the sauce too which is why I always make a purchase and the holidays when my husband is able to purchase gift cards for some of his customers ~ woohoo“

“AMAZING FOOD! And great staff!“

“Such an amazing restaurant. My mother in law passed away two weeks ago. The owner of Primavera, Sergio, came to her funeral to pay his respects, left a mass card, and sent us trays of food the next day that fed an army. Just amazing. This is the type of business that should be supported in a community. And their food is top notch!“
