30 Best Italian Restaurants near Saint Paul Park

“The pizza is always perfect. The delivery drivers are on time and super nice.“

“Great Italian food at very reasonable places. Highly recommended. I try to make a trip there every time I'm in the area.“

“Great pizza! My mom was the first server at the Woodbury location.“

“Hyacinth is a keeper. Creative food, well prepared, small but extremely well chosen wines. Portions were large, a bit too large in my view. Hyacinth is one of the few restaurants in the post Covid dining world that is daring to show us how innovative dining can be done.“

“Our first time here, we've been meaning to try this place out for a while now and I'm glad we came. Our server was great, he took great care of us, very informational on the food, drinks, and dessert, he didnt miss a beat. Wished I would have gotten his name - but he had long blonde hair that he put up. The food all came out at once, obviously we asked for the appetizer to come out first, we had no complaints on the food, everything wad delicious. We left home satisfied with everything. Only thing that my husband complained about was the parking lot - kind of small and if it became busy, you'll have to park elsewhere.“

“Mama's has the best food for your event - from Pizza to Mostaccioli and a superior Antipasto Salad. Thanks Tony for taking care of me for my Christmas Eve dinner. Brian J“

“Delicious bread, pasta, and drinks. Good prices at lunch. Free validated parking. Great and friendly server.“

“We frequent Yarusso’s and will always be a favorite! Decided to have them cater my girlfriend’s 40th and Jerry absolutely knocked it out of the park!!! First class food and service that is unmatched“

“My daughter and son in law visited Sunday, May 25th, 2025. Everything, with the exception of salad and Tour of Italy was awful. I had Create Pasta with Mushroom Sauce. Terrible watery, no flavor. Daughter had Zupa Toscan which was tasteless and watery. Her entree was Chicken Margarita flavorless with many green peppers on top. Such a disappointment for a reputed good eatery.“

“Andiamo has outstanding food and service. It's one of my family's favorite restaurants. Way better than Olive Garden. Highly reccomend!“

“We had a party of 16 at short notice who needed to be accommodated and we were very well attended to. Little Oven Staff knocked it out of the park! Thank you all!“

“Mucci’s was a fantastic romantic dinner spot. The appetizer meatballs had a unique texture that I preferred over other meatballs. The fall pasta special was incredible and paired perfectly with the tagliatelle that was the perfect blend of lemon and cream. The pasta noodles tasted homemade and were so good.

The patio was pretty and was packed by 7pm. We got a reservation for a Tuesday night and would recommend making one.“

“Found this amazing restaurant on our way home after a weekend spent in Minneapolis. The variety of options on the menu is wonderful and you can definitely tell everything is homemade!! We started with the trio dip and homemade chips. Delicious salsa, guacamole and queso.. and the chips!❤️ We had homemade steak alfredo and the sliders, both were super yummy!! Loved the decor and our server Michael was so kind! We will definitely make this a stop when going through Hastings again!!“

“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. The food and the service was excellent. The food server was very attentive. Thank you for making my birthday special.“

“After an issue finding a table because we arrived early, we had an absolutely wonderful meal. It was a Saturday night and it was a little bit noisy as it was busy, but putting that aside the food was wonderful in the service was very good. I can't wait for spring because the outdoor patio is what makes this place amazing it's a good value. Try the Bronzino.“

“Friendly staff and very kind! Doubled checked time for my in store order and made sure it was ok with me, also threw in a free beverage for my son and I!! Thanks awesome people!“

“Our experience from start to finish was great! Pam S., our waitress, was attentive, not hovering. She knew what we needed before we did. Our grandchildren were with us and their food, as requested, came out first. The food can’t get better and the prices are fair for the portion size. Always a great spot to get great food!“

“Always the BEST Pizza and antipasta Salad!!!“

“Brinley put her soul into an avocado piada. I came a little late to pick up my order and was expecting a cooler more soggy piada but I was left speechless tonight. The wrap, chicken, and vegetables were crisp, the sauces perfectly placed with great proportions and the warmth still resonating. She deserves a raise.“

“Didn't eat in but seems to have a good vibe. Really Italian style pasta. Steak was ok, high priced for quality. Son said his burgers was great and he is picky. I got a chicken parm and it was done perfectly noodles where cooked to the right firmness, sauce was flavorful without a bunch of additives and chicken was cooked perfect with a perfe t amount of breading. High in cost but everything is these days and food quality was good.“

“Base price for pasta no longer includes SAUCE! I ordered pasta with three veggies, chicken and Alfredo. I paid $10.99 for the pasta (a price increase) PLUS $2.99 for the SAUCE! Total over $15.00. Deceptive pricing practice. I normally order the spicy rosa (now $1.99) with sausage, which is delicious and recommend. This time I opted for the alfredo. It tastes suspiciously like jarred alfredo. Not worth the price.“

“Excellent quality, found it to be very impressive.“

“I have probably ate here 50 times over the past ten years and it’s the best pizza and salads period. It always tastes fresh and consistent. The reason I keep coming back is because the price has stayed (around) the same for the past 7+ years!
There is literally no where else you can get a whole fresh pizza and a small salad for around $16. I really appreciate that they keep it semi affordable. These days McDonald’s costs that much!
The food is much better than pizza Luce or toppers, any of the surrounding area competitors, which are just ok to me.

This tastes like you took a mini vacation to Italy EVERY TIME ! Pizza usually comes out within 5-8 minutes as long as it’s not insanely busy.“

“The food is delicious and the staff is super nice and funny. Would definitely recommend and will be going back.“

“Very impressed! Pizza was delicious and a really good price!! Workers were super friendly and helpful and everything was great. Only issue is it was super busy (nothing they can help) and it must be because the pizza is on point, but I'm craving some more.“

“The place needs a good cleaning!!“

“I have never had a bad experience at Cassinis. I used to deliver for them and the owner is a great guy, really enjoyed my time there. Pizza dough is always made fresh and I feel like the sauce is really the stand out for me. I absolutely love their sauce! Family Meal deal is always my go to! I read some of the negative reviews here and I understand that everyone has bad days, customers… employees… we are all human. But I will ALWAYS recommend Cassinis. The best pizza 🍕“

“Did not eat at bar but had drinks and the Tony and Jay were our bartenders and were fantastic, very friendly and attentive to our needs. It was my son’s birthday and he enjoyed the great service. There were a lot of customers and it’s nice they just flow don’t make it look like they are over whelmed and serve everyone in timely manner.“

“Ordered pizza for my sons 3rd birthday. Arrived early and they were very nice, everything we needed was given to me. Pizza was great. Ordered a Caesar salad and it came with olive and tomatoes. I’m not complaining because I like both but just curious if this is the norm. Never have been given a Caesar salad with tomatoes and black olives. Over all would def order from them again. Staff was wonderful. Food was equally wonderful.“
