13 Best Italian Restaurants near Olive Branch

“We are always looking for a mom and pop family pizza place. Dana's did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed with a friendly smile. We ordered a medium Hawaiian pizza and bread sticks, grabbed 2 coke and sat and waited with excitement to dig in. The team was taking call after call and helping so many hungry costumers walking through the door and our order came quickly and was delicious. Do yourself a favor and give them a try.“

“Hear me out - I visited Olive Garden in Southaven about 5 years ago for the first time and concluded that it was overrated and not what I expected and very much bland and basic. Fast forward to now - I decided to give it another try and let me tell you THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! They changed my mind at this location for sure! Everyone was so kind, I was seated quickly and probably had the best server in the building. She was so attentive to my needs and checked in every few minutes. The building was packed with a work engagement happening so I figured the food would take a bit to come out… it did not! Food came out lighting fast! I had barely eaten my appetizer when my main dish was coming right out! Everything was hot and fresh. Like burn your mouth hot. It was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. I must say, my mind is changed and I now love Olive Garden. I feel like I have to come to this one every time now for this experience lol. 10 out of 10. Staff and cooks are on their stuff here.“

“We have been going here for years and the food and service was starting to decline over the last year. We went again last week and everything had improved tremendously. Apparently new members of the original family took it over and everything was really good again. The food was excellent as was the service. The atmosphere was much brighter as well. We are going again tonight.“

“I’ve picked food up and had it delivered, and everything was fantastic both times. I’ve already referred several friends and hope to join them there to dine-in soon. If you haven’t been yet, I encourage you to give them a try.“

“Every detail about this place was outstanding. Our waiter, Blaze, gave us excellent suggestions: we tried the Pinnelli pasta, lasagna, garlic knots, veggie pizza, Caesar salad, and tiramisu. Delicious food, excellent service, great atmosphere. I only wish we lived closer so we could eat here regularly. We will return the next time we are in the area.“

“My husband and I love Bella’s! Their food is so good and so FRESH. This last visit I got lemon pepper wings, a small chef salad, and a slice. I crave their salads because they’re always so crisp and you can tell all the ingredients are fresh. My husband got the spaghetti and meatballs. The portion is huge and their sauce (made in house) is light but flavorful. It was all delicious and always consistent! If you haven’t tried Bella’s I would highly recommend!“

“My server was Diago, and he was very polite to my dad and I (saying mamm/sir). The food was amazing, and it did not take long at all, but it was not very but also not slow but over all 5 stars and definitely recamend.“

“I ordered togo....it was our first time eating at this place....I was however disappointed that the calzone didn't come with marina....it made for a very dry dish. the spaghetti noodles need work but the chicken parm was good. side salad was good.“
