50 Best Italian Restaurants near Commerce

“What an outstanding experience! The atmosphere and service is great and the food and cocktails, wonderful. We enjoyed the burrata appetizer, short rib and rigatoni (which is prepared with beef tips and a rich cream sauce instead of the more traditional bolognese sauce) entrees. Absolutely delicious and highly recommended.“

“What a wonderful man running the place! And delicious pizza too! 😍 thank you for the wonderful experience!“

“I did pick up and it was busy so had a bit of a wait. No one said 'be right with you" or I'll be with you in a minute". No one even made eye contact with me which I felt was rude. Aside from that experience, the pizza package I got was delicious. Plenty of bacon and pepperoni on each slice, nice cheesy bread and awesome specialty deep dish.“

“I’ve bought from here 3 times already! Absolutely PERFECT pizza and the workers always have our order ready on time to pick up. Great job! No complaints!! FYI i recommend the bbq chicken pizza it’s genuinely the best thing ever and i am so picky!“

“All of the food was delicious! We ordered the Caesar salad made table side, and loved that too! The atmosphere is very pretty. Our minor demerits include the overly attentive staff, who were constantly at our table removing individual dishes and asking how everything was. I know they were doing their job, but it was very distracting. The waitstaff uniforms need updating. And although the food was pricey, we would go back. I recommend a try!“

“Great events , good food , amazing service - family style meals are delicious - best chicken ever ! Comedy shows are hilarious - I highly recommend Genitti’s for a fun night out - “Gem” on Northville ❤️“

“Had Ever as our waitress today. Very bubbly, lovely smile and personality. Very tentative. I maybe from Texas, but anytime I’m back in Waterford to visit family, I would definitely come back here to eat. Service was amazing.“

“Great spot. Got home after a long weekend, flew into DTW and we’re headed up 275/96 and always struggle to find a good spot so searched this one up in advance. About 30 min from DTW, pizza was amazing, we had the margherita, stuffed cheese bread, and aroncini. Everything was delicious and cooked fresh to order. Great east coast style thin crust, tangy sauce, wish this place was closer to home so we could go more often!“

“food was absolutely amazing! service was on point and attentive and friendly! and, what an awesome atmosphere! cozy and fun!“

“what a wonderful experience we had at Cafe Cortina! from the complimentary valet, to the matre'd and all of the staff. The food was excellent, the ambiance perfect, and our guardian angel, Besnik, provided excellent suggestions all throughout the night! He never rushed us, and never hovered, he was just magically there whenever we needed anything. It was a perfect dinning expirence and we are grateful for it!“

This place nails it on every level—great food, great vibes, and a waiter who could moonlight as a comedian. Highly recommend to anyone who loves good food and a good laugh.“

“Went to this restaurant with some neighbors last month. I used to go to Vince's Italian Rest on Springwell in Detroit and they closed and missed their food which included homemade pasta. Saw that they had homemade pasta so decided to try the lasagna. It tasted the same as the restaurant i missed and was delicious. Can't wait to go back. A little pricey but so well worth it!!!“

“We give Lelli’s on The Green 5 STARS for tremendous food and even better service! Everything for our party was perfect and we are grateful to Mark Zarkin and Arie for making sure we were so well taken care of to celebrate a very special birthday with just a few close friends and family.

Thanks, Julian, for always delivering an amazing experience“

“It’s a great place, with great food and service. My family and I love to come here, but the reservation system doesn’t work well. Even with a reservation you might need to wait 20-30’ in lie. Either they don’t have a good system or don’t respect it. That is definitely an area to improve.“

“The food is so good!! Had dinner there tonight. The salmon is cooked perfect and great combination of the sweet tomatoes and red skin potatoes. Portions are more that generous. The service is prompt and friendly.“

“Great coffee and baked goods!“

“I’ve been going here since I’m was 5 years old with my grandmother. Best donuts in walled lake and great customer Service. The owner is a doll. Please go here there to underrated for how good they food is and especially there Italian loafs of bread 🍞.“

“I ordered o line & there was a glitch where my card was charged, but the order didn’t go thru on Buddy’s end. I thought I was gonna be screwed & have to take it up with my card company or wait & see if the charge fell off, but Buddy’s did right by me and made the pizza for me I had ordered online“

“Had a random stop to this Coney during some volunteer work in the area and I was very happy to stop in. Food was great and would recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for some great coney that taste like that classic Top Detroit coney spots but out in Pontiac Michigan. Great service, great attitude, great food, even had to tip the waiter who helped because the attention and service was on point off top!!!!“

“Worked late tonight and didn’t want a pizza. Bought a Jetzie. Wonderful. I’ve got a new favorite.“

“Ordered a OG, a large round pepperoni pizza with butter crust. There was a lot of pepperonis, so if you aren’t a huge pepperoni person, maybe ask for less pepperoni. I probably would order it again, but with butter cheese crust the next time.

The garlic mozzarella bread sticks were pretty good, although a little dry. Wish they were a little more cheesy. Most definitely would put Primos as a top 10.“

“From outside it appears to be a large liquor store, inside you realize they are so much more! Great place if you need to grab something for lunch quickly. Sandwiches and pizza slices made fresh and ready to go! They also have x-lg pizza"s that are perfect for a party or the big game. Food is good and reasonably priced. Service is fast and friendly, I love Bushemis would definitely recommend.“

“This is not your average Italian joint; this restaurant offers a fancier, more expensive experience that is absolutely worth the investment. The great service perfectly matches the upscale atmosphere, and I love that they keep the menu fresh with seasonal updates.

They expertly blend classic Italian options with intriguing choices. I was completely blown away by the Five Pepper Pasta. If you are a pepper lover, this creamy, peppery pasta—featuring fresh, pickled peppers, and topped with a giant portion of crispy chicken—is non-negotiable! The starter was equally impressive: the calamari was phenomenal, offering that perfect crispy exterior and tender texture, served with a great dipping sauce.

While the seafood in the Fruits of the Sea was a bit overcooked (which can happen with that dish style), it was a minor blip in a fantastic meal. Highly recommended for a memorable date night.“

“I ordered cupcakes and a cake for my wedding reception. It was delicious!! The raspberry cream filling in the cake was to die for and everyone likes the cupcakes. They made my wedding cake how I envisioned it and couldn’t be happier!!“

“I love pizza. And apparently so does chubby charlie's... The dough perfect. The sauce tasty. The cheese 100% mozzarella. The toppings endless... I challenge anyone who's a pizza lover like me to ask for a topping on a pizza that this place doesn't have.“

“Shout out to Ken last night! It’s always great to meet a like-minded artist! Of course, Jets has always been the best around! Ive tried GL a couple of times and they always fall short. Thank you for always delivering excellent customer service, Great tasting pizza and good deals!“

“Saw this place when I was at Panera bread. I stopped by and ordered a large pepperoni. I have to say it beats out all the large trash franchises. The young man taking my order was very nice“

“Waited one hour to be seated. Was told it wood be 15-20 mins .there were kids running around the restaurant. With no supervision from management or parents. Didn’t wait . It will be a long time before I go back . So I went to Tomato Appizza right around the corner and had a great dinner. Bye bye buddy’s“

“Best pizza 🍕 and bread sticks! Had the salad 🥗 too and it was so good.“

“We had dinner at Tribu last weekend with another couple and it was one of the best dining experiences. Everything from the ambience, staff, customer service and all of their FOOD were exceptional!! The menu was a soft launch menu as it was their grand opening, but there were so many options that we ended up ordering multiple appetizers, entrees and all of the desserts! Everything was absolutely delicious. The duck wings, tagliatelle, and filet were so flavorful. Great food, great company and great atmosphere. Will definitely be back for more!“

“Food & customer service are great. I hope business picks up for them.“

“My workplace orders from here often and recently I placed an order that was delivered in a timely fashion, but I realized I didn’t order enough because I forgot we had out-of-town guests. I called them back and they made two extra pizzas in record time and got them to us just in time for our luncheon. Not only is the food great but their customer service is spot on!“

“In addition to the awesome pizza & subs-there’s a huge selection of salads! The wings at Benito’s are amazing, with several flavors to choose from. Also, the mostaccioli (w/meat sauce & parm/mozzarella cheese) is Incredible. You can even order cannoli here. Love the staff at Benito’s! 😊“

“Wow, for people saying others are rude... Have you ever thought perhaps someone is tired or having a bad day? You are the rude one.“

“This place has become my go-to for Sunday delivery orders. Their pizza is fantastic, and many of the other menu items are also great. The order's have always been correct and timely. Occasionally, the same pizza may vary from week to week (possibly different cooks), but has never been a major issue and I've enjoyed the food every time.“

“We have ordered there for years. Today 4/2/2020 was the best service we have ever gotten from order to delivery. Made EXACTLY how we wanted and PIPING HOT! Thank you to whoever made our pizza and wings and to the fastest delivery person! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU A+++! I am no longer hangry. 😃“
