19 Best Italian Restaurants in Waltham

“I remember going there as a kid and getting there warn French bread, square pizza, lemon squares, and raspberry turnovers! Family treated you like family!“

“Il Capricio is a wonderful restaurant. The food is always delicious and excellently prepared. The service is outstanding. The only problem is that the entrance is on the wrong side of the restaurant. There is no place to park near the entrance and stopping to let out diners can be pretty scary. This restaurant should really consider offering valet parking.“

“Our kids have been going to The Chateau for years and we really enjoyed this visit even though the kids are now 13 and 18. We go there mainly for the atmosphere and the bread. The service is friendly and the food is good enough. It's just nice to eat out in a nice family restaurant where you can get a nice booth and there are no stupid kiosks or QR code menus.“

“Amazing food, great service, love the outdoor dining area! Can't wait to go back!“

“Yesterday was the first time we tried the pizza at Pizzeria Enzina...Wow... and we are so glad we did. My husband and son ordered a calmelized onion and red pepper version and I tried the vegan veggie pizza. We were thrilled at how delicious each slice was and we loved everything, from the taste of the dough to the generous amount of toppings and how incredible the vegan cheese on mine tasted so amazing...yes my husband and son both swiped slices of mine... it was that good. So happy we found you Enzina....my new favorite ....can't wait to try other dishes and the canoli too!!! We are so grateful for such a wonderful meal!!“

“The food and ambiance was delightful. The gin basil smash was one of the best cocktails I have ever had. The beat salad and tuna tartare were both excellent, as well as the spaghetti vongole (one of my favorite meals). Overall a great night, pricey, knew that going in, but worth it.“

“First time trying this place and it was amazing! We got the roasted chicken, plantains, yaroa, and chicken & beef patties. Everything was tasty, and the sauce they gave us was great. Very authentic vibe and the staff were helpful and friendly. Will definitely be going back!“

“Casa D'italia was a huge part of my childhood. I lived at 177 Newton Street in the pink house on the corner, and my mother often sent me to get your subs (the most amazing). I definitely need to come back. I haven't been back since the house fire.“

“The pizza was great! The kids asked to come back the next time we’re in the area. They were impressed with the size of each slice! - Franchesca - Rochester, NY“

“Don't want to down them to badly,I ordered a meatball sub took a bite,flavor was of a little bit from a traditional one, didn't look like ameat ball,looked like smashed cut meat,they need to work on that, otherwise the chix fingers were great,just the way I like them“

“Lena’s is primarily a pizza and sub shop that’s been in business since 1945! I’ve tried a variety of menu items: Sicilian pizza (Mediterranean, veggie, and eggplant with fresh mozzarella), pasta dishes, salads, subs, even cheesecake. The food is consistently outstanding - especially at the very reasonable prices they charge. Highly recommended. Don’t be fooled by the very ordinary appearance and humble attitude of the nice people working there. The food is really top notch.“

“They revamped this place and it’s AMAZING! The chef personally went around table to table. He helped with all of my allergies personally and made me my own special dish ! Great with gluten free. Service was phenomal. Beautiful and comfortable.FOOD WAS EXCELLENT“

“I’ve been going to pini’s for many years! Their food is so good! I always get the eggplant pizza! Their staff is really nice and it’s very clean ! Marisa C“
