13 Best Italian Restaurants near Lino Lakes

“Good but why put the toppings under the cheese? The cheese slides right off and the vegetables don't get cooked. Had an incredible amount of raw onion under the cheese that even after scraping all the onions out it still tasted of strong raw onion. I like crispy pepperoni on top not a stack under the cheese lol. Confused but still think it's pretty good.“

“The food was amazing! I got the parm chicken sandwich and added the Italian Fries. Chicken was cooked perfectly and the marinara was fabulous. I ate it open faced, trying to cut down carbs and it was still amazing. I shared the fries with the husband and we both liked that they were seasoned well and thick cut.We will definitely return!“

“Amazing food. I had the spaghetti and meatballs and was impressed with the flavor. Not over or under cooked and full of flavor. The restaurant gives you cheese bread and with the main entree, garlic bread. Both prepared and executed perfectly. My co driver order the raspberry cheesecake and said it was amazing. Looked very fancy and gourmet. Also the waitresses are very cute. Excellent environment, service and food. Very recommended and will be back.“

“First time here. Made a reservation. Hosts there don't seem like they want to be there. The waitresses were friendly. You walk in and it doesn't seem like a restaurant, layout is weird. Looks like an ice cream shop. Then they take you to the dining and you see pink panther stuffed animal decor.The bread that comes with the dinner salad was pretty decent. Got the ravioli appetizer. A little bland on the inside but the sauce and outside were decent.Service was a little slow and the pop was flat. Great portion for the pasta. Had leftovers for the next day. Deep dish pizza was good and very filling.It was a good try at something new but I probably won't go back.“

“We ate on the 2nd floor balcony tonight and everything was absolutely amazing! We were greeted the second we walked thru the doors, given advice on the best pace to sit, and our server, Thomas, was very knowledgeable about everything on the menu. We ordered the wagyu steak and butternut risotto with blue crab cakes and Caesar salad to start. The food was perfect! The service was incredible, at the atmosphere was homey and romantic at the same time. 10/10 will recommend and we will be back!!“

“Nice place! We’d never been here before, but looked for an Italian place Friday evening to break up the fish fry monotony. They seated us right away, service was great, the restaurant is clean, and the food was tasty! Great job Giuseppe’s! We’ll be back again!“

“I ordered the chicken and shrimp carbonara and it was phenomenal. Their salads are pretty weak though consisting of lettuce mainly, couple slices of tomato and a handful of tiny carrot slivers. pretty decent portion sizes for the price as well.“

“We have both eaten in and taken out pizza from this location. Same great Savoy's pizza like we used to get down in St. Paul. Unlike Blaine, this location has an eat in area with big booths and tables. There were few eat in diners, but a fair amount of take out. It was nice for a little birthday pizza get together with family. Everyone enjoyed the food. Beer is available and soft drinks. The family deal comes with cookies. I was expecting fresh baked since they have the ovens but instead you get 4 big prepackaged cookies.“

“This pizza place is way better than the two star average it currently has, from reviews that are super old. We order from here frequently and haven't been disappointed once (well technically my husband thinks they don't bring the cheese close enough to the outer crust, but that's stemming from his teenage days working in pizza shops-the rest of us don't notice). The pizza is delicious, and delivery has so far been really quick. Like really really quick-the last time was less than 20 minutes from ordering to our doorstep. Nice job, guys:)“

“I don't often take the time to write a review of a restaurant, but I would have felt guilty if I didn't in this case. Seriously great pizza, with the perfect crust, sauce and toppings - piping hot and served with a smile. The cleanliness of this pizza joint was awesome, the staff friendly and, even though it was super busy, the attention to the customer and product was spot on.Thank you for a great experience and a "perfect pie".“

“Will return again.I'm truly sorry for not providing photos of this establishment for those needing to see what the place looks like. Maybe, next time I go I'll provide photos.Parking: Parked close enough to the restaurant and was also able to use handicapped sticker.Wheelchair accessibility: I felt like there were enough spots in the restaurant for any person with many wheelchair users they'll be able to move around.“

“This is the kind of place that no matter what you order you will not be disappointed. In the past I have had the ribs(10/10 would recommend) and the fried chicken it amazing. Tonight I opted for the meatball hoagie and I wish I could have two, it's unbelievably good“

“Our entire experience was very good.. Our server, Maria, was amazing. She made us feel very welcome, checked on our needs regularly, and kindly got us anything we asked for. The food and dessert were delicious. I had two guests with me that were unfamiliar with this restaurant and they were very pleased as well. We had an excellent visit. Thank you!“
