Italian Restaurants near Mounds View

“I went in and asked for fresh breadsticks because my wife was craving them. The guy at the counter was super nice and said no problem, but the breadsticks we got were hard and deflated. We've never had problems here before. Just really disappointed 😞

Edit: Update: I called and they had me come back and and remade the breadsticks for us and they came out great. They apologized for the inconvenience.“

“Best pasta in the Twin Cities?????? Cavatelli with Rabbit Sugo was marvelous. We swapped and tried each others and I was equally floored by all of them. Wonderful service. Our server was friendly and helpful. Delicious drinks and cheesecake for dessert (ate immediately, not pictured). Absolutely will come back- hopefully soon!“

“Everything we had was great! Normally we enjoy steak but this was a great change that he and I both enjoyed! Friendly staff also at the bar!“

“Thank you for superb service and wonderful food. Best lasagna I have ever had!“

“Amazing atmosphere and the food was incredible. I had manciotti with the homemade meatballs and they were outstanding. Amazing food and service“

“My favorite pizza in the cities“

“If you need your party catered, this is the place to go. Staff: Easy to work with, on time, good prices, friendly and very accommodating. Food: Gorgeous/amazing presentation , fresh, hot, professionally packed. I ordered from Red Rabbit in Saint Paul for my work holiday party. Everyone LOVED the food and the portions are generous. I was able to easily and beautifully display it. The timing was perfect and everything went smoother than I had hoped. This is your one stop shop for all of your party food needs. Hats off to the chefs and management for making our party wonderful.“

“Food, atmosphere, and drinks were all fantastic. The Owner/Chef Joel has created something special at this gem nestled in a Minneapolis neighborhood. We had a large party for a friends pre-wedding dinner and the staff handled it great. From the apps to the desert, you can’t go wrong with anything you pick off the menu. We were all tasting each others food by the end of the night wanting to try EVERYTHING! Some have stated a smaller menu and prices, but then say the food blew them away…I for one like to pay to keep amazing food and ingredients an option. Can’t wait to bring my wife and other family members in the Twin Cities to do it again.“

“Food was very delicious, service was top notch. Would definitely go back to try more of the options. Our Waiter was great and very informative.“

“Excellent manicotti and the best homemade bread! Service was great!!“

“What a treat!! My whole family loved it!!“

“Amazing food!! I would definitely come back up here from Fargo to eat this pizza. Definitely best in town“

“Vegetarian options: We went to Olive Garden for my birthday and everybody found something to eat. The service was top notch and our server attentive. Even though it was a busy night, I never felt neglected. Oh, and I got tiramisu to take home as my birthday dessert.

Dietary restrictions: I think that Olive Garden can accommodate just about every dietary restriction a guest might have.

Parking: On a busy night beware of the parking... You might have to walk a considerable distance to the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. Our server weren't out of his way to make my son feel very special on my birthday... I'll be honest: I was a little jealous. 😄

Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely wheelchair accessible.“

“Outstanding as usual!! Fabulous!“

“Incredible homemade italian and such an incredible, incredible value for the price. Best italian food I have had in a long time!“

“Wanted to write this to specifically shout out Michelle my waitress from last night. I came in for the Eclub early access Never Ending Pasta. Michelle was beyond helpful with knowing exactly what email I was referring to and giving me a menu and recommendations for the early access special. Always made sure I had refills in a timely manner and was truly one of the best servers I’ve ever had.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, my server Tommy recommended a breakfast special he created as he also is one of the chef’s, and it was so so so good. An elevated food experience that lives up to the Minneapolis food scene’s reputation. Decor is awesome too. Thanks for the experience and recommendations Tommy, you’re the homie!!“

“food hasn't been that great since the old place was torn down. sorry she can't handle an opinion. hard pass. better Italian places around town not to mention better owners that don't come off like a rich snob. he family sold out and she inherent a business and it isn't all that great now .“

“Our server was first rate. She was attentive and responsive, and she offered menu suggestions in response to our questions. The food was delicious and authentically Turkish. Would definitely go back!“

“we had Sandy's grill and Italian ice food truck at our corporate event. they served about 135 meals within 2 hours. amazing service food was beyond excellent. I would recommend them to cater any event. we're hoping to have them back next year. Thank you Sandy's for all the great work you did for us.“

“Great vibes. Good cocktails. Food options are limited but great taste. I ordered a salad which was listed as v for vegetarian but it came with prosciutto. Admitting the mistake, they waived off my 5 drinks from the bill which was great gesture. Also, the manager apologized atleast 5 times for the mistake and assure to make corrections to the menu. They also have a bakery and deliver cakes and pastries to your table at the rooftop which is really awesome.“

“Very good food, try the steak and cheese panino!“

“Great pizza napoletana and a lovely staff. We have been patrons for over 20 years. Our family is from Campania and having Punch is a wonderful reminder of home. Grazie mille!!!“

“Best pizza in MN, not sure if the people that gave bad reviews are on drugs, or they just have bad taste. Best pizza, wings, and tacos available, hands down. But to be fair, of you think $5 pizza is yummy, you won't like Hometown...only quality food items served at Hometown.“

“Very cool spot! Had great reviews so stopped in for dinner with the family. We had the cheesy bread with marinara which was good. We also ordered the grilled vegetables appetizer that we enjoyed.

Then my wife and daughter ordered a pizza with tomatoes, feta cheese, harissa and fennel sausage which they really enjoyed. My son is a basic pizza kid so we split a pepperoni pizza which we also enjoyed. We all liked the coal fired approach which reminded us of some of the places we enjoyed when we lived in CT (New Haven).

Service is going to get its own section here in the write up because it was exceptional! We had an Asian guy (apologies I can't recall his name) who took care of us who was fantastic! Positive attitude, super upbeat and friendly. Very helpful with menu suggestions and beer suggestions as well. Very attentive, refills were timely, never had any long stretches where he disappeared (and they were PACKED). Really stayed on top of everything and provided a great experience overall.

Excellent meal and experience and I highly recommend you give it a shot if you're in the area.“

“Great service staff. Food is excellent. Great atmosphere.“

“A really nice place to eat. The lasagna was excellent. I'll be back.“

“Glad we tried it. Great pizza and service was awesome and fairly quick. I couldn't make reservations online but when called, no problem at all. When we got there, it was dead so unsure why reservations were needed, but better prepared than sorry.“

“Went out to eat with a few coworkers and we had a great time. The food was delicious, the price was low, and the service was speedy. We sat outside and enjoyed the sun. The only other thing I could of asked for was a bigger picnic table haha.“

“First time!! Discovered in the skyway downtown Minneapolis. IT IS SO GOOD!!! 😋“

“Best pizza ever, hands down. Service is always good here and good location and good parking, nice patio.“

“I got my food, the order was correct, the cashier was courteous and I didn't get carjacked. it was a good day“

“First time!! Discovered in the skyway downtown Minneapolis. IT IS SO GOOD!!! 😋“

“Amazing food especially for the price point it’s at, $18 for some of the best pasta and sausage I’ve ever had“

“After we had posted a less than stellar review the management reached out to us and invited us back in. This experience was what we expect from Nonna Rosa's and we will be going back often. Brenda“

“Lots of plant based (PB) options at Broadway! I ordered the PB pepperoni, PB red sauce, PB cheese, mush, grn olives and onion pizza, and it was delicious! A lot of other PB options too. Thank you! 🍕“

“Great place to eat brings me right back to Italy!!! Was a great lunch and great service.“

“The new Red's Savoy Roseville location in the Lund's/Byerly's strip mall is out of this world. As good, if not better the original Savoy on 7th st. Excellent customer service, and a beautiful clean new location.“

“I have been ordering from Umbria pizza for at least 7 to 10 years best pizza hands down ever I just wish I lived closer Nick and his family are a great team“

“The best pizza ever!! We hadn't ordered in a long time, got a craving today and it is as good as ever!! House special, light on the peppers.. oh man I'm stuffed but a happy lady!“

“I always take the kids for the buffet. Salad is fresh, and pizza always comes out hot a fresh, and tasty. Wish they had more then one type of soup to have. Lately the chicken wings were a little dry from sitting to long after we arrived to the restaurant. BBQ sauce shouldn't be almost rubbery.but that that not all the time.service is great,always friendly, and willing to help you if you would like a certain type of pizza made.nice atmosphere, place is clean. Definitely a family place.i Definitely recommend this place to try.oh and buffet is only 11am-2pm I believe. Try it.better then pizza ranch for sure.“

“I love Pizza Luce, this location is big and comfy. The staff were so nice and answered any of my questions.“

“We discovered this gem while visiting Florida a couple of months ago and again thos trip. I miss bacon egg and cheese on a roll, a on the go breakfast when I worked in NY. Best breakfast sandwich and their pastries are to die for. We'll see you in February.“

“Group of 12 was feed most of us first timers we had fun.“

“The special is amazing!!!!“

“I was here a little while ago, on the way to work, when I thought to see if they any inexpensive lunch specials. To my surprise they had 2 slices and a can/bottle for only $5, as one of their lunch specials. I thought it was a good deal, especially since they offered to warm up my pizza slices for me. What was to my surprise was the slices were deep dish, which is one of my favorite crust styles. Of course waiting for a few minutes I was perusing the menu, and thought that I will be coming back sometime to try one of their calzones, salads, and maybe even some of their cheesy bread as well. Of course when I did have my my pepperoni slice it was actually pretty good sized. Enough for me to have a good snack or small meal. Yet, I do plan on going back, since the employees were really friendly and cool to chat with.“

“I love their Chicken breast sandwich and my kid loved their Mac&Cheese but they have many options with pasta, pizza, and salads. The staff were very welcoming and patience with our order. They have seating upstairs for extra tables. The only issue was the parking. Lovely restaurant!

Kid-friendliness: My kiddo loved their Mac and Cheese. They have refill drinks as well.“

“Always hot and ready when I order ahead. I use the app and have no issues when selecting pick up as an option. Love this place! The pizza is the best and their calzones are to write home about! Sandwiches are pretty good and even their salad options are decent. 10/10 would recommend! Best place to grab some take out in town!

There is no where to eat inside so take out is really the only option. But better than dominos if looking for some decent flavor :)“

“Totally passed the vibe check. Worth the $$$“
