42 Best Italian Restaurants near Indian Trail

“This place never fails to impress and satisfy. Things don't go perfect anywhere but the difference is that they correct those things with a different integrity. My Stromboli was left behind during pickup right before closing time. They dropped it off at my house just as fresh as if it was never left behind.

Dietary restrictions: Allergy friendly cooking if made aware by the customer.“

“Exactly what you want from a strip mall Italian restaurant. Great service and atmosphere, good food, not too expensive.

The menu isn't too extensive, they stick to the classics. I had a calzone and it was tasty, nothing to write home about just a good meal for a good price. The patio is nice, the trees form enough of a barrier between you and the road so it feels like sitting in a shady little courtyard. The flowers in little planters hanging on the plastic fence are real. The dining room is typical discount Olive Garden style, cozy and clean. My server Zachary was very friendly, polite, and attentive, and the hostess was also polite and professional. Rossini's gives nostalgia of going out with your family after church.“

“Excellent food, wonderful service. Reasonable prices.“

“You have to try the Mozzarella presentation with the Roasted Sicilian Red Peppers and the Chicken Parm with a side of fettuccine. Large portions!“

“The food is amazing here. We did have a small incident where we did not get what we ordered. My husband called and spoke to the Chef and he told us he would correct it.

We loved the mozzarella sticks, house salad, spaghetti with meatballs, Hawaiian pizza and chicken piccata!!! Very easy to find the restaurant! Wish we saved room for dessert! Thanks for a great meal! Excellent service!!!“

“The food, service and ambiance was excellent.“

“A mystery. Outstanding ambiance, looks and feels like nice casual cafes we ate at in Milan and Tuscany. Once inside can't believe it's in an outdoor mall in NC. Friendly service. Chicken marsala with mushrooms as good as it gets. Hearts of palm salad not on many menus but was delightful. The customers seemed to be enjoying a relaxed, quality dining experience without the pretense of a fancy place or buzz of a large busy place. The mystery-why was it only half full on a Friday night?“

“My husband and I have been going to Marios/John’s place for over 30 years and have never had a bad meal. John has done an excellent job from his managers to wait staff and to the wonderful tasting food. I recently had a private party there and every person raved about the food and the hospitality of the restaurant. I cannot thank John enough for making everything perfect. You are definitely missing out if you don’t go there and have a wonderful dinner.“

“This place is my fav pizza place. Anytime I miss being in Naples, I head here to get the flavors that satisfy my longings. I just wish they would adjust their pricing structure a bit…my son and I can’t ever get outta there for much less than $100 bucks (including tip)“

“Best pizza and wings in Charlotte! Great people and a great atmosphere.“

“Alfredo spinach pizza great BUT they still charge for chicken when I requested no chicken. So I had to pay more for the dead ingredient that makes it expensive being a vegetarian. Boo-hiss!! Excuse: "No option on computer to deduct chicken" Lame, lame, lame!!!“

“I had this pizza years ago when I was in the shopping center in one day for lunch and I remember it being yummy finally had it again a couple weeks ago and it was even better than I remembered. start again tonight and it was just fantastic the sauce is delicious the pizza is cooked perfectly and the prices are reasonable.“

“hard to find good NY pizza thank you Hawthornes i just found the slice that reminds me of home.“

“A new family favorite! We just visited for the first time yesterday and everything we had was so good that we went back today! They have a great selection of well-priced goodies and even savory items, and their staff was very nice and helpful. Excited to try something new again next time :)“

“When I walked in the very 1st time I was greeted with such sincerity. (I felt like I had been going there all my life.) The 28" pizza was as amazing as the people preparing it. Luckily I had trunk space to get it home. I've since tried a few things on the menu and everything has been great. I highly recommend Big Guys for an amazing family owned restaurant that provides exquisite food, service, and atmosphere.“

“We came in for lunch and Tam took the absolute best care of us. Had a pep + sausage pizza and it beat the socks off any local shop I've had in the last four years. Came from about 20 minutes away and it won't be the last time! Thanks again T!!“

“While the food is fantastic, the people who own and manage this place are what keeps us coming back. The staff is ultra attentive to customers. I come in with my two toddlers frequently, and the staff is always asking how they can make things easier. Wonderful people all around, complementing the great food.“

“I remember the first time I walked in. It wasn't completely what I expected. Please do not let the name fool you. The surprise was quite refreshing and much needed. It is NOT you typical Italian pizzeria type place. It is in fact, a Spanish restaurant. I discovered this the first time I placed a pickup order while looking at the menu. It was confirmed when I picked up my stromboli. It was rather large, and quite delicious. I have been saying since that very first time I was going to go back and try some of the other dishes they offered. They do have your traditional Spanish fare, including tacos, burritos, quesadillas, fajitas, among quite a few other items. They also have a typical subs, pizza, calzones, and as I said before, Stromboli. This time I decided to try the item in the picture. I decided to get that because it was rather late and I didn't want anything that was heavy on the starch. (Anything with a lot of rice, beans, or bread.) When I tell you I was the farthest thing from disappointed... It is a soup and I did ask about the types of peppers shown in the picture. Those are no longer a part of it. It is large tender chunks of beef, carrots, cabbage, zucchini, onions, carrots. There is also a type of vegetable in it that is shaped like an apple. I did ask what it was called because I was curious and the waitress thought for a minute but then stated that there really isn't a word an hour language that it would translate to. I didn't mind because it was absolutely delicious. On the plate you have your scoop of rice, chopped corn, cilantro, diced jalapenos, and a lime. When my food got there I immediately got excited because to me, this was presented like Vietnamese Pho! (I was super excited to try this!) It was full of flavor and did not disappoint. It's quite a large serving of soup as well. Depending on your level of hunger you may need to take some home. The waitress was super nice and so is the rest of the staff. The restaurant is also equipped with a very lovely bar and they do take out, delivery, and dine in. I am so happy that this place is not far from me at all because I will be going back to try more!

Parking: Free parking as it is in a shopping complex. Since it is on the end, there is parking down the side and across the front.

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is located on the end of the complex where the sidewalk area you'd use is parallel to the ground.“

“Best Pizza in the Charlotte area!! The Buffalo and Hawaiian slices are always on point and they have good beer on tap or in cans. The garlic knots are yummy too!

Brooklyn Pizza makes better pizza than all but one of the pizza places in my hometown of Kingston, NY - and it ties the best place in Kingston.

One of my overall favorite restaurants in the Charlotte area.“

“best pizza in town and the BIGGEST!“

“Absolutely amazing pizza!!! GREAT PRICES! I ordered at 30 mins before closing. They were more than willing to help me even with closing coming close.“

“We’ve been twice now and both times we had great food, great service and can’t wait to try more! We’ve had pizza and pasta, my mom tried the eggplant parm and dad tried the Mama’s Feast - all great portions and flavors were amazing! Will be back!“

“Everything tasted amazing! Loved the fried ravioli appetizer. Great crust with just the right amount of crispness and extremely generous with toppings. I highly recommend and can't wait to come back!“

“great pizza! 4 tvs, Labatts sold here.“

“2nd time here because the first time was excellent. This time, however, was lacking. I ordered the calzone. The cheese was at one end, the frozen spinach, canned mushrooms and raw onions were at the other end. Not edible.“

“I just had the Meat Balls for the first time.. They were amazing. I also got a favorite that I get every time I go the Diavola Pizza and it was cooked great.“
