15 Best Italian Restaurants near Swartz Creek

“Comfortable family place that's been around since 1974 serving up tasty Italian dishes and pizza a little West of I-75 just South of Flint. Large parking lot. Great for couples, family or groups with 3 separate dining rooms. Good pizza ( I'm a Chicagoan who knows good pies) and great Italian dishes featuring a zesty marinara and plenty of cheese. Especially like their baked pasta dishes which are served in generous sized portions at reasonable prices and are accompanied by either soup or salad. Another plus is a fair assortment of craft beers on tap. Can't comment on desserts as even taking leftovers home, we're always too full to order any.“

“We love Zippy’s - so much that we actually burned ourselves out. Tonight, we were in the mood again. I noticed their chicken parm states ‘never frozen’ and baked fresh. I hate frozen chicken on my chicken parm, so I took the chance. It should say the pasta and sauce isn’t frozen but the 2 small chicken tenders are definitely frozen. Plus, they were tough. We added meat to the spaghetti so it was almost $18.00. For $2 more, I could’ve ordered Pestos and got freshly breaded. The description is very misleading & we wouldn’t get it again. Our pizza was also burned around the crust. We love the business and we love their pizza, but it seems like every where we go, we don’t get what we paid for & I’m tired of just not saying anything.“

“Huge portion with very innovative ingredients. Very tasty. The dessert was out of this world fantastic. Will definitely be back to try other things. Service was top notch as well.“

“We stopped here after attending the Renaissance Faire in Holly. We only waited about 5 minutes for a table. We were in full costume and were treated wonderfully which was appreciated considering most people there at the time were dressed up in dressy attire. Our waitress was phenomenal. She was attentive, sweet and constantly checked on us. It was a wonderful meal. The food was delicious too.“

“Big Johns is a Flint icon!! If you want a tasty, belly filling sandwich, this is it!! It's Not the cheapest, but, it is the best. I highly recommend the steak and onion, the club and other sandwiches are great as well. Though, their reputation was built on the original steak and onion!!!“

“Great place to eat and relax. Great staff and owners .“

“I got the plain cheese pizza and it was the best pizza I've had in years. The crust is perfect, flaky and yummy. The pizza sauce is yummy.

“Ruggero's catered my mother's 80th birthday party for 50+ people. The food was out of this world and the prices were very reasonable. People kept coming up to me asking where the food was from because they loved it so much. We all agreed it was the best lasagna we'd ever had. The staff was amazing to work with as well. Thank you, Ruggero's!“
