30 Best Italian Restaurants near Apple Valley

“Great pizza, crust, sauce, toppings are all quality stuff. Fast, friendly service. Very clean restaurant. Definitely coming back!“

“If you're looking for authentic Italian deli fare, Brianno's is the real deal. The location wasn’t quite where I was expecting—tucked away and easy to miss if you’re not familiar with the area—but absolutely worth finding. I was genuinely impressed with the sandwiches – packed with flavor and clearly made with quality ingredients. The price point felt fair considering the portion sizes; I easily got two hearty servings out of just half a hoagie. The taste was incredible – rich, fresh, and satisfying in every bite. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu! Highly recommend for anyone craving a true Italian deli experience.“

“Invite your family and friends and they won’t be disappointed.“

“Amazing food always. Owners are very lovely folks“

“Good food, great time😊😊“

“With my wife being out of town, I was flying solo for dinner. She left me a gift card for Olive Garden that I decided to use.\n\nI went early (5:00 PM) to avoid the usual dinner crowd. I was greeted at the door by three friendly, smiling faces. While at the table, I was given a menu and saw that they still had the soup/salad and breadsticks on their menu. That is what I ordered. The minestrone soup was equally as good as what my wife makes at home. My wife is a fantastic cook, so that is saying quite a bit.\n\nDuring my brief stay, my server was very attentive without being overbearing. She refilled the items that I was low on. I was pleasantly surprised by her attentiveness. \n\nThere are those that will ridicule Olive Garden stating that their Italian food is not real Italian. I had zero complaints about my food and would recommend their wait staff to any one of their competitors.“

“I am from Massachusetts so I have never had your food before. Placed an order earlier in the afternoon for a kids meal and a side of meatballs. Unfortunately the meatballs were not ready so I left without them. The pesto pasta kids meal was outstanding - so when it came time to order dinner I went back. The same gentleman who took my first order - remembered me and asked if I still wanted the meatballs - I almost didn't get them - but I am so glad I did! Some of the best meatballs and sauce I have ever eaten. I'll now be on the lookout to visit your other locations if there are any where I travel. What a terrific experience and a great way to end my visit! Maybe one day one of your places will open in Massachusetts - what a wonderful day that will be.“

“Me and my 2 friends were in last evening for my birthday. We were given a complimentary salad a slice of chocolate cake with a candle for my birthday. I ordered lobster ravioli which was delicious.

“BEST FOOD IN THE AREA!!!!“

“Party of 12 had a blast and the fettuccine was not bland at all! The sirloin steak was fabulous! The Strawberry Margarita was perfectly made. Chicken was not soggy. The minestrone soup was excellent and the salad was perfect. Pleasantly surprised with this Olive Garden visit. Servers were so attentive.“

“We used to live in Roseville and would get Carbone's often. Now we live out of range - so when we saw the restaurant next to our hotel, we jumped at the opportunity to eat their pizza.
Still good. Didn't like the Christian music videos on the TV, but dug the big fish tanks.

Wheelchair accessibility: My daughter is in a wheelchair and she was able to get around pretty easily.“

“Excellent Italian Hoagie!“

“I’ve been coming here ever since I was 6 years old, I moved away from the area a few years after and still to this day make the hour long trip it takes to get here for the food it always tastes exactly how I remember it the cook is always consistent along with the service it is genuinely my favorite place on earth absolutely must try!“

“Had the House Special today and it was WONDERFUL! My old boss use to order from the Mendota one & it was great...this at Edina was just as good as I remembered the one's my boss brought into work... yes, I'll be back!“

“Phenomenal 🔥 Consistently coming with that top quality product we thoroughly enjoy! Yum 🤤“

“One of the best pizza places around! They always have great food. My sister and I went on a Friday evening, which we knew would be busy. We arrived at our designated time only to find out that they were behind on orders. The first thing I noticed was how hard your employees were working. They looked so overwhelmed and stressed out, but we’re still able to give us great customer service. I saw the order receipts flowing in by the bunches to the point they had to put them in a huge pile on the countertop. Please limit how many people can order per time slot online. Your employees are working so hard for indoor dining as it is.“

“I can't say enough about this Pizza Man! Their pizza is #1 in Eagan. And they really know how to take care of their customers. Thank you Chad for all you have done!! We have been customers since you opened and we are not changing. You guy are AWESOME!!“

“Stopped in for lunch and the pizza is absolutely fantastic! Shout-out to Aaron for personable, attentive service. He was telling me about how they are under new ownership and things are really headed in the right direction. If you have never been here or haven't visited in a while, I fully recommend this shop!“

“Traveling from Green Bay for business. I called the competition first but they didn’t deliver. Boy am I glad they didn’t. Had a salad and a 10” Reds special. Great pizza.... that sauce though! Has a little bite to it. Amazing. Definitely my go to when I come to Burnsville. The driver even had peppers and Parm packets. Great job! ...... Go Packers 😜. Sorry. Had to go there. Totally recommend Red’s!!“

“1 cup of dressing and 4 croutons for my $7.50 “Caeser salad”? Where’s Ashton Kutcher because I’ve been punked. 🤦🏼‍♀️“

“Yum! All I need to say!“

“I love that they are close to home and the pizzas were great, but they are horrible with getting back to customers when there is an issue with an order. Less than a mile from our home and the pizza was cold upon delivery. Messaged and emailed the email listed and no response at all. Pretty much a one and done for us.“

“Sbarro's offers a fantastic selection of pizza with a wide variety of toppings to choose from. The food court provides ample seating, ensuring you can easily find a place to enjoy your meal. The restaurant is conveniently located, making it easy to access, and the cleanliness is commendable. Overall, I would recommend Sbarro's for a satisfying and pleasant dining experience in the food court. Whether you're in the mood for a quick bite or a relaxed meal, Sbarro's delivers quality and convenience.“

“I don't understand why the reviews are not higher. Sarpino's has really good pizza. Make sure you sign up for their loyalty program and watch for coupon codes and then you'll find it isn't that expensive. I like the Midnight Express pizza the best and the garlic bread is delicious. Service and delivery has been great and I have had no issues.“
