47 Best Italian Restaurants near Richfield

“Coolest atmosphere. Consistently delicious food (delivery, takeout or in-house!). Excellent staff. We've mostly been enjoying our Lucé at home the past few years, but had a teen visiting and wanted to give them the full Lucé experience. I made a reservation requesting a booth because of hearing loss and sensory sensitivities in our family. We were given a booth back in the corner and we haven't had an evening out that was so pleasant as a family in years! Staff was excellent - for us and the family at the next table with a high-energy toddler who had a spill that was cleaned by cheerful staff who assured the family it was no problem. We used to be that family, so I appreciated this! Everything was clean and the restaurant looks to be in great condition. The artichoke dip was the best ever (I swear we marvel this every time we have it). We tried two new pizza types - the Classic and Wild Mushroom - both were excellent, though Athena and The Lucé will still be our go-to choices. The greek salad was high quality and very fresh. The slice of cheese pizza we took home to our youngest was good (as always - it's the picky little dude's favorite pizza!) Another word on staff - We appreciated our host and server's clear communication; I'm unsure if they did this because of awareness of our noted hearing issue, but thanks to that and the booth placement, I don't think any of us had to ask for repeats. Thank you Luce for honoring the booth request and being consistent with excellent food and service - it made a world of difference for our whole family! ("Tubular" as our visiting teen said)“

“Best deep dish pizza in the area. Lots of cheese and toppings.“

“My kids just treated me to a birthday dinner at Italian Eatery! It was a fantastic experience all the way around - food, service, and atmosphere. The entrees were delicious (we ordered a variety and shared!), and my dessert - the crostata al limone (a lemon tart) was out of this world! This was my first time at Italian Eatery. I’ll be back!“

“My husband and I chose to celebrate our one year anniversary here today. It was both of our first times dining at Broders’ and we enjoyed everything about this wonderful experience! Upon arriving we were attempting to take a selfie photo outside and one of the employees opened the front door and asked us if we would like him to take our photo. Tyson so kindly took several photo angles and opened up the door for us as we walked in. It truly felt like we were being welcomed into someone’s warm and inviting home. Our sweet waitress helped me select the most delectable glass of wine I have ever tasted. Words cannot explain how delicious the pasta was… we lapped up every single drop and were in absolute food heaven. To top it all off… we were treated to a free dessert of our choosing along with two chocolate cocoa truffles on the house!! After we finished our meal we went across the street to their storefront to purchase some pasta and sauce to enjoy at some point in the coming weeks. We will definitely be back for all special occasions and certainly for our two year anniversary. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience and meal this is the place!! Enjoy!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“Great service and food!!!!“

“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!“

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

“This is one of the most delightful little restaurants I've been to. It reminds me of an Italian cafe of a side street in Italy. The food and service amazing. You can tell by all the locals that come in and the staff knows them. Make a reservation if you can. They do get busy, but also take walk-ins“

“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.“

“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.“

“BEST fried chicken I’ve ever had!! 🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗“

“Average little place in what looks to be next door to a bowling alley. Warning: They serve authentic Italian hoagie, so if you don't want your gums to bleed, get a different type of bread. Food great, but the markup probably isn't worth the return trip.“

“Outstanding as usual!! Fabulous!“

“Truly impeccable service and such a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel so comfortable. The menu provides such vibrant dishes that carry you through a story that gives each bite with such flavor. I’ll definitely be back, I was happy to be introduced to this establishment by Jaelin, it is places like this that you absolutely need to try.“

“Great food. Homemade taste. Locally sourced. Affordable. Friendly, efficient service.“

“I have only eaten one thing repeatedly and it is excellent, their burger. I can’t speak to anything else on the menu. Service is fine, but sometimes laid back to the point of indifference. Atmosphere might be a little too trendy and hip for some people, but the space is attractive and well situated especially when going to see a show at Latte Da.“

“Amazing food always. Owners are very lovely folks“

“What a wonderful place. My boys took me here for dinner last night and it was fantastic. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was incredible. I will be back again and again. Thank you!“

“They support their community. Real American values.“

“We had a great dinner last week with our family of eight! Bethany was our server and she was fabulous!!“

“Good food, great time😊😊“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Hendrix & Siena last night . The beautifully lit dining room made you feel at home the second you sat down. I could see from my table the kitchen crew busily preparing the food with love and it was ever so apparent by the constant smiles on their faces that they loved what they were doing. Now for the food... we started with the lemony beans which was so refreshing and well seasoned. I ordered the lasagne duefoglie and it was amazing......you must try it! Others at the table ordered the asparagus caesar salad that had perfectly marinated sea beans and asparagus and the Sorpresine with a carmelized cream sauce to die for. I highly recommend this restaurant and I plan to be back!“

“Had a very special celebrations here recently and it was amazing. Staff was awesome, food was delicious and ambiance was top notch.

“Date night. Food was good. Wine was good. The waiter could be more attentive. He did not even ask us once how the food was and if we needed anything. Had to get extra sauce from the girl who brought out our food.“

“BEST FOOD IN THE AREA!!!!“

“My steak was just ok. Not very seasoned. But he Alfredo was spot on and so was the Zuppa Soup. My server was amazing. I cannot remember her name but I overheard her telling another table she was a kindergarten teacher. So if you see this, you rock 😍“

“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.“

“Stopped for dinner before a show at the Orpheum. The bartender made the drinks to perfection and recommended some great food choices for us. Will definitely be back to try some more off the menu. Friendly service!“

“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!!!“

“This is literally one of the best places I have ever eaten, that I have to write a review more than one place 😂 Absolutely everything is amazing, and I always get it when I have guests in town, to blow their mind 🤯 I am amazed at their quality, especially with delivery. You guys are beyond impressive!! ❤️“

“Always delicious! A real treat.“

“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.“

“The chicken Alfredo was amazing! It's honestly hard to find good food and you guys deserve your recognition and flowers 💐👏🏿 Shout out to head culinary chef at MOA in Bloomington 🤘🏿🤗“

“The BEST pizza!! Always delivered fresh and hot from the oven!!“

“The server we had was above par. He was the nicest and best server we've ever had. A very handsome Hispanic gentleman that really made my mother's birthday so much better. We wish we would've asked for his name because idk that we'll be back unless he's working and is our server. I highly recommend the stuffed chicken marsala.“
