50 Best Italian Restaurants near Farmington Hills

“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!“

“Antonio's is an old-school Italian restaurant, with traditional dishes. The food is delicious, the staff are attentive, amd although the atmosphere feels fancier than it is you will see many older people dining here in their nicest clothes, but also families with kids in t-shirts. The kids meal is a great value and our daughter asks to go here for every birthday. Entrees are a good value and come with amazing bread and soup or salad - but I learned the hard way not to add a salad when ordering the pizza or calzone - a side salad is $15 a la carte! Wish they had a better price to add one on.“

“What a find! Our golf group stopped in after golf and everyone enjoyed their meals. Great service. Yummy food. Can’t wait to work our way through the menu. And they have GF for me!“

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. We highly recommend it for some of the finest dining around! Thank you Mark and Arie for being such gracious hosts and making it extra special. We’ll be back to pick up some trays to share with our family to celebrate Christmas as well! Happy Holidays and THANKS AGAIN!!“

“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“

“Great pizza! Used the phone BOT and was VERY impressed!“

“If you’re looking for authentic “Detroit Style” pizza, this is it. Square deep dish with a thick chewy crust and carmelized cheese that is crispy around the edges, and don’t even think about forgetting the sauce! So much flavor in the sauce! I love the classic pepperoni, but all the toppings are superb. You can’t beat the crunch of the crust with the melty creaminess of the cheese. This is an awesome pizza!“

“Valentines day dinner! Was greeted with valet service when we pulled in. Taken straight to our table. Food, drinks and service was all great!

Only missed opportunity was our table wiggled but the server made an attempt to fix it. Would highly recommend this place!“

“Excellent seafood fettuccine. Wonderful service. Can't wait to try other dishes on the menu. I worked here over 30 years ago when it was Main Center Grille. It's just as delicious!“

“I had a fantastic visit here recently and can’t recommend it enough.

From the moment you walk in, the location and decoration create such a welcoming vibe it’s stylish but felt remarkably quiet and peaceful, which I really appreciated.

The service is where they truly shine. They clearly know what they’re doing here. We were looked after by a young man named Drew, who was incredibly kind and professional. His service was 'on-point' the entire time attentive without being intrusive.

As for the food, it was delicious. I ordered the pasta, and it was exactly what I was hoping for yummy, fresh, and they nailed the spice level perfectly. I also had the village salad, which was a great, fresh pairing.

I will surely be going back again soon!“

“It's been a while since our last dine in experience as we've been carrying out for a while (they do a great job of grab-and-go). However for Mitch's birthday we decided to dine-in and couldn't have enjoyed a better experience. Mitch had his fave, chicken parmigiana with Angel hair pasta and I had Chicken Olivia - my favorite with artichokes. It was served with sweet pea risotto and roasted veggies. Yum! For dessert Mitch's birthday cannoli was delish. And we added their unique 20 layer cake- that we'll have leftover cake for the rest of the week - so big!! Next visit won't be so long!“

“By far the best Italian restaurant on the west side. Great menu and Very authentic“

“We dined here tonight and we come here often but I wanna give a shout out to Joshua G who took care of us the whole meal. He did a stellar job went above and beyond and having the upmost positivity in a server. We'll definitely come back just for Josh he really is one making a difference“

“Great coffee and baked goods!“

“Great subs serving Redford area!!!“

“No andes mints anymore? I didn't ask but it's been a long time and I thought you got little chocolate mints with your check. But we had to use an electronic kiosk to pay so maybe that's why. Anyways server called a dish by the wrong name so we sent it back but then it turns out it was the right dish all along, I asked for a new napkin cause I spilled sauce on my sweater and I never got a napkin... But otherwise I love olive garden food and our waiter was very nice! I would still eat here and recommend it 👍🏼“

“Been meaning to post a review. Long time customer here. I work in the pizza industry. These guys are top notch. Placed a order tonight. 4pc chicken and pizza. Once I got there 20 minutes later. Unfortunately there was a mix up with the chicken and was asked if I wanted a refund or if I wanted to wait for the order. I choose to wait for the food. The customer service is on point. They were very accommodating because of the mixup. They will make it right ✅️ One way or another. This will always be my go to pizza place. Thank you staff for your hard work and superb service.“

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

“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“

“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 had an initial bad experience and I've avoided them for about 3 months. La bellacino's really is the only piece I like besides Jets and Dominoes and sometimes Hungry Howie's. So with that being said I just told myself ask for extra sauce, and just like the Michigan Avenue and Ford Road locations The was 🍕 BUSSIN!!! 🍕 SO MUCH I HAD TO TAKE A 🍕 IMMEDIATELY“

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

“I freaking love this place! They have the most unique pizzas. Obviously the famous dill pickle pizza is amazing but I also regularly get the chicken parmesan, which has a pasta sauce base and spaghetti noodles under the cheese! I've never seen something like that at any other pizza place. The pretzel pizza with pretzel crust and a nacho cheese base is another fun one to try. The staff is always super friendly and efficient when I go in for pickup. The food is always hot and fresh with quality toppings. Makes for great leftovers. It's dangerous how close I live lol.“

“Best gluten free pizza 🍕 hands down!“

“We had lunch here today and were very impressed with the food & service. I feel bad I can’t remember our servers name, he was a very handsome African American man with amazing braids. He was so friendly and attentive. Bringing refills without us asking and checking in regularly to make sure everything was ok. We really appreciated his wonderful service. Our food came out fast and it was delicious. We will be returning soon. 😊“

“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!!“

“The food is fresh and very good. The workers are amazing! So helpful and thoughtful!Definitely check this place out.“

“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.“

“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“

“Our server was Danielle she made sure that we were informed of all of the options on the menu and drink options including mocktails. She had a great recommendations and topped it all off with a great conversation the food was fantastic everything was made to order and we also work formed of things we could add to the pizzas and things that could be taking off. And it's a plus. You can tell that Danielle takes pride in her work and takes the time to have a conversation about all the questions that her guests have. Who was delicious absolutely freshly made. The food came very very fast and was very very hot. The starters were delicious we got the wings and all had personal pizzas. Definitely will continuously recommend this restaurant to others specifically this location. Thank you Danielle for all your help and service professionalism.“

“We usually alternate between different pizza places because we don’t have a favorite…. But we have discovered that Jets has the breadsticks where you can put pizza toppings on it.
I have small children…. For those of you who do not realize, breadsticks with pizza toppings is sauceless pizza. As in no red pizza sauce, dribble everywhere and on clothes!
Only adults and those who are worthy get the dipping sauces, so we finally have found a food that children like and parents do not mind cleaning up after. Win-win!“

“Awesome pizza. Great customer service. Food is fresh.“
