49 Best Italian Restaurants near Comstock Park

“My wife and enjoyed our 55th anniversary with dinner at Amore'. Chef Jenna visited every table in our area and asked about every course we ordered. This is by far the best restaurant in the Grand Rapids area: we ordered the 5 course Chef's menu and each had something different from appetizers through desserts so we could taste all. From the waiter, the live music, our beverages, and Jenna's attention paid to all, the best meal ever.“

“Everything it’s a great place plus the food is downright delicious.“

“We frequent here for lunch quite a bit. The slices and bread sticks are the best deal around. I come from Chicago, so I like good pizza. This has been the best for me!“

“Voted best pizza ever by my 3 picky boys !🍕🍕“

“We had a table of 5 and 2 who have been eating Fricano for 70 years. This pizza was by far the best we have ever had! Loaded with fresh quality toppings and perfectly crispy crust! We dont have to ask for extra crispy here! The service was fast and friendly. We will be back!“

“This really is the best location. The food always looks top notch and today they made my day by refiring a pizza and crazy bread that fuller messed up! I feel like the staff makes a genuine effort to make sure I am satisfied and that is why I always come back! Don’t listen to the negative reviews about this place, fuller deserves those reviews! 😆. Thanks again for making the experience the best possible. Not sure the name of the lady with blonde hair i believe she was the manager but she is awesome! 🙌“

“Private event. The food was excellent. Large portions and the wait staff was outstanding.“

“I’ve visited this location a few times in the past month after not been to an Olive Garden in years. Both dining experiences here I’ve had incredible service … better than some places we’ve spent 200+ dollars at for a “fine” dining experience. Food is tasty & consistent. All of the staff were friendly & professional and the whole restaurant was spotless. Way to go OG!!“

“I had a wedding rehersal dinner that exceeded expectations. Hailee our hostess was the best ever at making guest feel at home. It set the tone for the weekend. Guest were treated to a 5 course plated dinner menu. If you live in the Grand Rapids, MI area, make this a stop for true italian cuisine. Thank you Hailee and Molly for making our dinner experience so pleasurable.“

“I do love going to Angela's. I always have the best Wet Burritos. I am not going to not recommend but we were there recently celebrating my sons raise. Everything came out timely and great except his pizza was dropped and had to be remade. it did come out a little undercooked when he finally got it. Not only did he not get to eat with us but his meal was essentially ruined. I still love visiting but a little disappointed that they didn't at least offer reduced price on it or something. Thank you for reading.“

“JoLana and Molly. you both are awesome, pizza is fire.“

“Haven’t been there in ages but kids took me for Mothers Day! Great food and the ladies working were SO nice and brought food to our table! Very friendly service! Will definitely be back again!! 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I have loved everything I have had here, so far! I get a lot of likes when I post pictures of my meals from Florentine’s, too.“

“We celebrated our 8 year wedding anniversary at one our favorite places. Our server Jacob was amazing! We sat outside on the patio and the atmosphere was great. The parmesean cheese wheel is back!!!! You must try the Alfredo dish if you haven't before. Great service, great wine, and great food. Highly recommend.“

“Best subs Ever! They make them just like they use to! My Dad and I love their subs and he's slightly addicted to their chips!“

“A wonderful and excellent experience. Delicious food and the attention from our waiter Garrett it was extraordinary!“

“Amazing menu and top notch service 👌“

“My husband and I came here for my 28th birthday and had such an amazing experience! Our waiter was very kind, the food was outstanding, and the atmosphere was amazing. We had calamari as our starter and I had the mushroom ravioli and my husband had the steak and we loved all of it! For dessert we ordered a s’mores dessert and were pleasantly surprised! I heard they have a speak easy type of lounge downstairs which is unfortunately closed on Mondays which was the day we went. But I’ll definitely be going back go see it!“

“Kari was amazing. so friendly, patient, and she delivered great service!! we ordered the italian donuts, we were thinking to get the chocolate sauce with it, but she recommended the strawberry sauce and she was SOOOO right, the strawberry was the best!!! so very pleased with our experience here!!!“

“Our waitress Sophie was awesome!“

“Was a little wait, But it was to be expected. A nice day, on a Friday afternoon. waiter was nice kind friendly and very knowledgeable. Very sociable, but not in unprofessional mano. Understanding that he was working to be working. Not like so many younger people today.“

“Always good food and good service. Good value. Hope did a great job for us tonight and had a smile on her face which is always nice.“

“The best Italian food in West Michigan, and at a great price. Love this place.“

“Nikki is our favorite server at the Rockford Ucellos and we ask for her every time! love her service and she's always smiling“

“Five stars! We ended a week of camping with a vehicle delay on our way home and stopped for lunch at Big Bob’s while my husband took the truck to get fixed. First of all, the food was amazing (our son said the deep dish was better than Giordano’s). But more importantly, Rob and his staff took were beyond hospitable to our 3 kids and I as we spent the next 5 hours utilizing their Uno cards, Connect Four and enjoying their complementary popcorn. If you’re ever in the Grand Rapids area we highly recommend giving them a try. We’ll definitely be back next time we come through Grand Rapids.“

“Food was awesome and the atmosphere is nice“

“Private event. The food was excellent. Large portions and the wait staff was outstanding.“

“What a wonderful gem 💎 this pizzeria is, the food is amazingly delicious and the portions were more than generous. The customer service is what the restaurant industry should strive for, we went into the place as strangers and left like we were part of the famiglia. #Gino gratzi Amicci! We can't wait to comeback and enjoy your food and your kind ways.“

“Food was so delicious! We had two different pizzas and two pastas among our table. No complaints anywhere. The house made sausage is to die for. Highly recommend!! We’ll definitely be back!“

“Very clean restaurant. friendly staff. excellent buffet!“

“Very good pizza!!!! Quick service“

“It's been over a decade since I've had a happy dog. I had one today and it was just as good as I remembered. 🔥“

“I tried their pizza challenge. It was fun. The gluten-free pizza was good, too.

- Pizza 28” Challenge - $35: Super thin, but soft and fairly good.

The crust was dry, tough, chewy and was fairly plain. The pizza was easy, but the crust was very hard. I saved the crust for last (a tactic I learned from another competitor), but in this case, I think you need to eat the crust along the way so you don’t get tired of chewing it all at the end. Break it up.

I failed by one slice and almost all the crust I saved for the end. It sounds like the challenge is undefeated currently. Someone has to beat it. It is well within the possibility compared to other challenges out there. Though it is 28” and that sounds huge (it is huge), it is actually thin enough that it is still very much possible for those who train for it.

I’d have to guess it is 4 pounds. I weighed it at 3.5 pounds, but we couldn’t get it to balance well enough to take our hands off of it to get an accurate measurement. 28” is huge!!!

- Pizza 9” - $: Fits on a plate. My daughter ate it and reported it was good. The crust was plain.

- Cauliflower Pizza 12” - $: Except for the amount of cheese, it would have been my daughter’s new favorite gluten-free pizza.

- Service: Super helpful and cheerful. She was new, but it didn’t show at all. She was very proficient and amazing!

- Atmosphere: Clean. A bit on the darker side, but not bad. There is a higher ceiling and voices probably carry very easily. We didn’t experience that too much since we stopped by during a slow time.

- Conclusion: I’d certainly recommend this place for many reasons including the cheerful staff.

Visited on a Monday at 2pm.“

“Excellent Jets location with friendly and fast service. We go here at least once a month and it's always great pizza; perfectly baked and good on the toppings. Tonight we got light sauce on half the pizza and they were kind enough to write on the box which side was which! My favorite local pizza.“

“Had lunch today. Our server was very sweet and very good. We ordered the lasagna and seafood Alfredo. Wonderful on all accounts. Left with leftovers. Nowadays it's hard to find a meal that tastes like your mother made it. Huge compliments to the chef!! You are missing out if you haven't stopped into this gem. Subs looked amazing (as we eyeballed another tables order)!! Thumbs up! Be back soon? Thankyou Salvatore's.“

“Great pizza at a great price.

I am always happy that my online order is hot and ready when I am told with zero issues. I will drive farther to this place because they make the process of ordering, paying, and pick-up seamless.“

“A wonderful and excellent experience. Delicious food and the attention from our waiter Garrett it was extraordinary!“

“We order Jets very regularly at our office. So about 15 minutes ago I ordered tomorrow’s office lunch from Jet's Pizza Forest Hills location. About 14 minutes ago, I got a call from a GR number and ignored it .... because ROBO CALLS all the time..... I got a voicemail from James @ Jet’s trying to determine if my order was for tonight (since I forgot to change delivery time to tomorrow 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️) or for tomorrow. In his voicemail he mentioned that since we usually order on Mondays, he’s going to assume it’s for tomorrow unless I call back. How many companies would go through that trouble??? Or even remember their regular clients?? I’m impressed. 👏🏼👏🏼“

“Our baseball team enjoyed the VERY large and delicious 24” pizza last evening for a Christmas surprise. Delivered, on time, and tasted great! Thanks.“

“Great Detroit style Pizza!“

“Best slices in GR and great service as well in my experience. I have loved pizza my whole life and am originally from Chicago. So my expectations are high. But skip Vito's and come here for slice and get a drink while you're at it.“

“Great food and great service!“

“My husband took me out for what he still calls date night after 30 yrs. of marriage. He and I are both foodies and love going on adventures for restaurants that go a step above in both food taste, presentation, atmosphere and service. And I'm here to tell you that Alfanos hit all of these with flying colors. Cody and Alex were our bartenders/servers. They were excellent. I had the Chicken picata and it was off the chart with flavor and presentation not to mention a healthy serving. Delicious is all I kept saying. Compliments to the chef!!!!! My goodness I can't wait to go and try something else. My husband had the chicken parmesan dinner and too was very pleased. Thank you very much to our servers and the Alfanos for a wonderful date nite and dining experience 😊 we will definitely be back.“

“Tried Vito’s for the first time last night. It was the best pizza I ever had. Generous toppings, lots of cheese on the bread sticks, cinnamon balls were amazing. Definitely my new GoTo for pizza.“

“I mentioned my last pizza 🍕 was a bit dry; asked if a small amount of sauce could be added. It was perfect 👍🏼 Thanks You!! Delicious!!“

“Great food and great staff good vibes all around never a bad time at cbj“

“As much as I love the food here, the customer service really isn't that great... Yes it is in a mall, but every time I get my food for pick up, it's never ready, even when there's no one else waiting to get food. I know they can see my order before I get there, so it confuses me how every single time I order food from them it's never ready when I arrive.“

“This particular location, like many others this winter, is very, very cold in the dining room (which was fairly clean, but clearly not used often).

We came in for lunch and got some slices to go. They were hot and fresh and absolutely delicious. No fountain drinks, but bottled pop available.

Service was great and friendly. Will definitely come back.

Parking: The bathroom needs a key from the staff to get into, but considering the high traffic area/location, I think it also helps keep the restrooms in clean condition.“
