Italian Restaurants near Mounds View

“The guy behind the counter was awesome, the bigger dude making the pies.....the the guy taking it out the oven, cutting it, and placing it in the smart oven....all had a perfect synergy together that handled that kaotic lunch rush, plus us dashers, and I'm assuming grubhub“

“Phenomenal dining experience!!\nDifficult to choose from so many choices!! Quality is amazing, portions are generous, and scrumptious!!\nWe enjoyed the octopus, bruschetta with ricotta and tomatoes, mushroom confit, branzino and pasta with tuna. \nOur served, Sidney, was professional, kind, and very careful with our food allergies. She’s an incredible asset to your restaurant!!\nWho would have thought you could get such an incredible Italian meal in Minneapolis? This place is a must!!“

“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.“

“The meals are consistently fantastic. I’ve never had a bad meal at this restaurant over the last few years. The ingredients are high quality, fresh, and well prepared. The dishes come out delicious every time. It makes dining incredibly easy when I know I can choose anything on the menu and it will be great. The service is also incredible. Knowledgeable, prompt, and friendly staff. The dining and bar areas are equally beautiful in distinctive ways. Very pleasing to the eye. Zelo is a must try downtown, and if you do, it will become one of your go to restaurants for a nice night out.“

“Excellent food and staff!!“

“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.“

“They support their community. Real American values.“

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

“Best cheese bread on the planet and make sure to order double crust pizza you won’t be disappointed!“

“Outstanding as usual!! Fabulous!“

“Great service! Food was excellent. Prices high but I expected that so it was no surprise.
I always choose the endless salad but my guest ordered the soup and it looked great. I plan to try it next time.
The restaurant was very noisy, though we had a booth in the back and that cut some irritating sound. I'm older, so perhaps I'm overly sensitive.
Overall, it was a wonderful time!“

“Visited here with three companions for an early dinner. I arrived early and was seated in a nice booth, informing Maria, my smiling happy server, that I would like her to order for me. After delivering a basket of the pleasantly salty/garlicy breadsticks (the first of three) my companions arrived and ordered. My diet coke with fruit was served up, and the big bowl of Caesar salad arrived (the first of two) fresh and delicious. Maria surprised me with a plate of Steak & Shrimp Bucatini, the best thing we ate that day. Also ordered were the Lasagna Fritta as a shared appetizer that received unanimous approval, the Chicken Parm, and Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara. My only complaint was that my was served very warm instead of hot. It was definitely a pleasant experience, Maria was perfectly attentive and helpful, and we ended up taking up space in that booth for almost two hours laughing and having a great time.“

“Living nearby, I know they’re a busy place, so a cold, snowy Sunday was the perfect day to try their brunch. The food, and the minimal crowd, were delightful! I had the classic breakfast, and the sausages were the clear standout, absolutely delicious. And I can’t forget the coffee! I’ll definitely be 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.“

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

“This restaurant is very inviting and comfortable and the food was delicious across the board for our group of eight. We lunched. The service was very attentive. There were too many interesting choices, that I had a difficult time deciding... Had the salmon club sandwich and it was quite delicious. My co-workers were raving about the endive salad. Reasonable prices and close to a lot of downtown.
We'll go there again for sure.“

“Small and cozy place. Not many tables. We were there on a weekday between lunch and dinner. Got an impression that the place is very popular for take out, people were in and out constantly. Their portions are very generous. Their lasagna was delicious. Their garlic bread is also very good. Recommend it. We'll go there again for sure.“

“Went to try the buffet served on Monday nights. The salad bar was fresh and delicious. The Pizzas came out quickly and often and the area was kept clean and stocked. The staff was friendly and hospitable.

The tater tots on the buffet was an odd choice but went well with the chicken wings.“

“Hey if you have not sought out a Davanis in a while go here!! The Manager Zack, this guy is just amazing. I order for delivery all the time. One time before Xmas my food was all messed up. I did not complain, it was Xmas and I was feeling joyful and giving. Fast forward to today. Feeling just down, and finances have hit me to the ground. I pulled up to my davanis and told Zack what happened,(I still had photos) explained how sorry I was for not mentioning sooner and without questio. He remade my sandwich and here is the real KICKER. THE STORE IS CLOSED. I CANT BELIEVE THIS ANGEL TONIGHT. Thank you Zack and your team as always just amazing. Side note. Don't just show up and lie for food. I have been ordering g from here since I moved to this area. It is really just a great team of humans!!! Team Zack all the way“

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

“We ordered Delivery, our order ETA was about 70 minutes. After 10 min past the estimated time, I gave them a call. They explained it was just coming out of the oven. I asked was it normal to have such long Delivery times... The CSR told me that they were short staffed on in house and driver's. It came about 90 minutes total time. The pizza was nice and hot. And the BBQ bone in wings we're really good. It was all around delicious. They are trying their best and the food was good.“

“I've ordered Marcos twice from Doordash, SO GOOD. Hot, fresh and tasty pizza. I've had pizza, their cheese bread and wings. I'm not sure what the negative reviews are about, but Marcos is far supreme over ANY chain.“

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