50 Best Italian Restaurants near Southfield

“Bigalora in Southfield nails it. Wood-fired pizzas with bold flavor, house-made pasta that's perfectly balanced, and a warm, upscale vibe. The wait staff is phenomenal and knows the menu inside out, giving stellar recommendations every time.“

“One of my favorite pizza places, the $$$ is affordable n the food is delicious. I’m not a pork eater, so it’s great to have options that fit my taste. Oh n the stuff crust is just yum yum diggy. The only thing I wish they offered was salads. Oh n you have tons to choose from on their $5 menu.“

“Great place to shop for your “Next Auto”. Friendly and professional staff. Wes and Tim are there to serve and awesome to work with. We feel like we got a great deal on our used 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk and we are confident that Next Auto will stand behind the quality of the vehicles they sell.“

“The food and ambiance was good. They asked b4 if we were celebrating anything but didn't have a bday dessert or staff that sang. We loved them more than their sister restaurants we have visited (PAO &SEXY STEAK) The specials with pricing should be on a card in the menus.“

“Our favorite restaurant when we come to Royal Oak! Great food without breaking the bank for a date night.“

“This restaurant is so amazing! The people are so kind and are always so social and helpful. The food is delicious and I love the bread that they serve. I enjoy their mocktails and would 100% recommend this place to anyone who enjoys kind people and a wonderful cuisine.“

“My husband’s favorite place for Italian!“

“I just grabbed lunch here (to go) and it was amazing. I had the house coconut avocado smoothie while I waited for my food - so good. I got a spinach, mozzarella and Italian sausage cascione (grilled and stuffed flatbread…the dough is also homemade) that was delicious. I also got the grilled cheese and ham (don’t judge me! 😂) the cheese was a Gruyère with black truffles and the ham was from Dearborn. Also tasty. I would definitely go again.“

“10/10 would recommend Giuliano’s. My 1st time there this evening & will definitely order again. Service was great, food was even better! 🇮🇹“

“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!“

“The food is insanely good. We came in today idk if the AC was broken but holyyyy air ball I wanted to get out asap lol I understand it’s hot outside maybe AC was broken idk. Wondering if the ice machine was broken too? I got served pop with no ice which I thought was strange. I have never been here before so idk what the norm is. I will come back for the food but maybe just carry out next time if they truly keep it at 85 in there lol overall best Italian food around hands down. Service was okay I’m sure she was tired and hot so I don’t blame her. Poor staff I felt bad for them!“

“Happy Hour !! Good and plentiful @ $7“

“Being Italian myself, I rarely eat out for Italian food—-but Luigi’s is amazing! Everything is like home cooked, multi-generational cooking! This family-owned and run restaurant has traditional Italian pasta dishes, but also many specialty plates! For me, I love the Seafood Linguine--it's incredible! Service is always excellent, too! My husband and I are here at least once a week! ❤️ If friends or family suggest meeting up for a dinner, we have been known to be at Luigi's multiple times in a week!!“

“All delicious except a for very boring side salad. House dressing was great but the iceberg lettuce had six chick peas and two pieces of tomato. Step it up Tony's!“

“you go there you're family...“

“Everything about our experience was phenomenal!! We brought our 88 year old mother out for a birthday lunch and she loved the place. We were a party of 6 and the restaurant was more than accommodating. Our service was extremely exceptional...Rebecca was so great she timed out the food and course perfectly.our glasses were always full and she brought out a complementary dessert with a candle that was much appreciated..thank you Rebecca for making our time so lovely!!!“

“Antonio's is my go to spot for Lasagna.

We stopped by Sunday late afternoon. 8 of us. Enjoyed lasagna. Seafood manicotti, pizza and other items.

Service Sunday was superb. Our waiter was very attentive and made us laugh on several occasions.

Onto the food. It is consistent and as expected when we eat at this Antonio's. Always tasty. Temperature hot and fresh.

What was an eye shock was the pricing. For three of us my bill before tip was $ 115. 👀😳😳😳.

This includes a 3% " fee " for some reason or another.

Looking closely at the bill. And knowing when looking at the menu. Things here dramatically went up. Lasagna my staple here went from $17.50 to $ 23.50. A pop beverage was $ 4.50 and a side of ranch dressing was $ 2.50. This all gives context to the experience.

I can say that between beverages and ranch for three people I added $ 16 to my bill. 😳.

Desert items were tasty. I don't feel the cheese cake for it's size and what not was worth the $ 7.95. it was a tad over cooked. Not creamy / fluffy as cheesecake should be.

Overall. Atmosphere is what your group makes of it. We had a very good time. Service is what your waiter makes of it. And he was superb. Unfortunately. And this is tricky. The value of what we received here is a HUGE miss. All in all my cost for three of us was $ 136.00 total. And we had one lasagna, two seafood manicotti's. Three pops and two deserts. Casual dining overall at super fine dining pricing.

Our family eats together monthly. We rotate restaurants. We will look to expand our rotation to a tad more affordable and different options in the months to come. Nothing against the food. It's just an expense that has exceeding our willingness to pay.“

“Absolutely the best Italian cuisine in the area! I had the mahi mahi special and it was so good and not to talk about the sauce on the linguine? With spinach and roasted red peppers! And for profiteroles dessert! Will be back again and again! # whatsinthesauce? Kudos to Margaret or server!“

“Nice dining place. Great food and atmosphere.“

“If you’re looking for high quality, authentic tasting wood-fired pizza and don’t want to spend an arm and leg, then you have to come here! Whether you want a nice sit down dinner experience or just a quick take out order, Crispelli’s has you covered.“

“Nice family-owned place. Great food, great service. I was there with a group of 6 and we took our time after dinner. Never once did we feel like we were being hurried out.

Vegetarian options: Pizza, cheese ravioli, pasta dishes“

“Amazing food! Best creamy Romano dressing!“

“Great thin pizza - cooked quickly in a wood fire oven - salad was very fresh“

“Food and ambiance was amazing. I prefer gluten free pasta and the server suggested I pass on that given that the freshly made pasta would be far more delicious. My partner and I will be returning on the regular. Oh and Andrew the bartender is a great guy.“

“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!“

“Wife & I love the friendly atmosphere. To complement that statement, the food & drink is second to none ! We've met so many people there, it's amazing ! As mentioned previously the food is amazing, and the best way I can define / complement the bar is, Stephaine, Skylar, and John are NOT bartenders, they are cocktail ENGINEERS !!!“

“Love the inside. It's clean and like a step back in time. I love the great staff. I really love the PIZZA! I'd go more often but it's a pleasant stop after a drive to get my haircut. It's a true, real gem.“

“Great waitress Candy and food was delicious. I had the Olivia's Chicken, friend had Mr. Aldo's Bolognese, other friend had Filet Mignon and my husband had shrimp and pasta all were cooked to perfection. We had dessert and shared. Candy was friendly and professional. We all enjoyed the night.“

“Once a month, or more like once a week, lately…we love Luigi’s!“

“great restaurant, lovely accomodations“

“The pizza is the best! The round pizza is more of a New York style that has a crust that has a nice chew and those yummy cheesy bubbles that occur from baking. Service is always a plus. A hardworking and friendly staff. The atmosphere is that of your quaint neighborhood sports bar that's always been around. It's cramped but not uncomfortable. Cozy if anything.“

“Great spot to take the family and grab a quick lunch or dinner. Can’t go wrong with the breadsticks and marinara as a starter here. For our entrees we ordered the fettuccine chicken Alfredo with broccoli and the eggplant parm. Everything was good but what really stood out was our server Chloe, she took the experience to another level. She gets dining out and made sure our visit was an enjoyable one 👍!“

“They have the best pizza, I just had carne with feta cheese from sheep's milk. it was amazing.“

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

“Great subs serving Redford area!!!“

“This place is a hidden gem.
I literally drove past this restaurant for years, never knowing that it was a fine homemade Italian cuisine.
My favorite out of all Italian restaurants is the chicken marsala. This is not found on Antonio‘s menu, but they served it to me and it was tasty fresh and delicious.
My daughter had the lasagna and the sauce was so tasty and so wonderful that I had to order it for myself.
Everything was tasty we had the shrimp we had Shallots we had the orange roughy everything was made to perfection
The bread was so delicious so hot so good. Everything is on point. Perfect. They also gave you butter and olive oil with seasons in it.“

“I love this place. One of my favorites at all times. Best food, friendly staff and atmosphere is just perfect. 10/10“

“I recommend going to see Stephanie. She was more than attentive we were never in need for anything! She gives a new meaning to service with a smile. My wife and I have been back many times just for her good cheer she seems to pass on to all around her! 5 stars for Stephanie and Como’s for having such a great staff!“

“I had the Chicken Athena tonight. Outstanding! Fresh ingredients including fresh olives, and chicken. You could pay 2-3 times more at other restaurants, and not nearly as good as Christine's. This place is a real find!“

“Great server great good. Love this place“

“It’s delicious! Service is always wonderful!“

“Our server Jazzman was great and very professional … on top of being “Stunning” Food was absolutely delicious ‼️“
