16 Best Italian Restaurants near Clayton

“This is one of my favorite restaurants. I was delighted tonight to find out that they added a few more menu items. Their brisket burger was absolutely delicious. I am very impressed with all the flavors in every dish, and how healthy the food seems.“

“The most amazing food. Always delicious at ALL locations, friendly service and wonderful atmosphere.“

“I already love Saks Deli for their restaurant (the Mad Mushroom Philly with Cooper is my all time favorite), but this review is all about the wonderful part they had in catering my sister’s bridal shower. Matt and his team provided turkey & provolone pinwheels, chocolate-covered strawberries, and cream puffs — everything was delicious and such a hit with our guests! As always, Matt handled the order professionally and on time, making the whole process easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Saks Deli not only for catering special occasions but also anytime you’re looking for a great meal in Clayton off Hwy 70.“

“It’s on the pricier side but it’s damn good pizza. Real, authentic, with a quality dough and crust. Great crisp on it as well. The toppings were amazing. Pepperoni tasted great so did everything else. The sausage chunks were large. The cheese was lovely too. Sauce was flavorful. All around a great pie, can’t wait to try more of the menu. Great spot for a high quality pizza. The deserts in the display also look heavenly.

Pizza was also ready within the estimated time and was still hot when I got it. Made it home at the perfect temp to eat.“

“AMAZING pizza! I ordered delivery & it was still amazing when it got here. We're from up north & when we moved to North Carolina the pizza was lacking to say the least. Just weird pizza places around here haha. But this, this is true NY style pizza! We got their 18inch cheese & the New York style pizza (steak, sausage, pepper, onion) and they were AMAZING! The slices are huge, reminds me of Sal's (not the ones down here, the ones in NH are different.) the pricing was fair as well. Is it dominoes price? No. But it's also not dominoes quality. It's not the cheapest but it's also not super expensive, it's definitely worth it IMO.“

“My definite go to on any day!“

“FUQUAY LOCATION Creme de le creme italian restaurant!! This has quickly become one of our favorite Italian restaurants. This was our second visit, and it was just as impressive as the first time we came with family. The quality of the food really stands out. I had the New York strip which was excellent and easily one of the best steaks I’ve had, second only to my wife’s steak. The atmosphere is consistently inviting, with well-balanced lighting and calming music that makes it perfect for a relaxed evening out. The staff is friendly, attentive, and contributes to the overall great experience. Dessert and coffee were also highlights and a perfect way to end the meal. We’ll definitely be making this our regular date night spot and look forward to coming back again.“

“Not since dining on Terrania's shores have I tasted a pizza as remarkable as this. I can't recommend Amore Mio any higher, would gladly give more stars, but we're limited to 5.“

“I went in tonight to place my order face to face because the last few phone orders were not as expected. I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak fresh toasted bun with ONLY cheese, onions and light green peppers and we ran through it twice only for me to get home and I look and plenty of mayonnaise up and down the the top.. (HATE IT) the bread I could barely bite making it chewy (OLD) . I give up , the convenience of the location, and cost for me isn’t worth me NOT being satisfied in the end. They were perfect for me at one time but all good things come to an end.“

“Large Beef Pizza!! Soooo Goooood!! Great Customer Service!!“

“First time!!! Will not be the last!! Wow!!!“

“Staff is great and friendly. Location is clean. I have gotten take out here many times and every time the food was great. I have gotten subs, wings and today the deluxe pizza which is fantastic. The steak sub was very tasty and the deluxe pizza had a generous amount of items. I have had Marcos pizza a few times and it was ok but I much prefer Bella Roma. The crust is like traditional Italian crush and the sauce was very very good. Marcos sauce I found to have a bitter after taste and didn't agree with my belly. This location on New Hope is some of the best pizza in the general area. I highly suggest eating here or for take out.“

“Phenomenal food at a family owned business. So glad my wife & I found this hidden gem today. We were very pleased with our tasty food, large portions, & great atmosphere. We will be back.“

“My definite go to on any day!“

“This is my go to restaurant for pizza. They are fantastic. Quality, consistency, best in the area. Friendly and professional.. They may be a bit pricey but they are worth it. Their pasta dishes are also great and the portions are huge“

“30 dollars for a small pizza and a sub half a sub the delivery driver woke up my neighbors because he's halfway down the road I specifically added my address as well as the color car and driveway but yet he was down the road yelling at me for delivery. Call the store and got blown off because it's a franchise and she can't give up the number to the owner because they don't want to be bothered. Crappy service crappy food don't order from these people“
