22 Best Italian Restaurants near Troutman

“Tonight was our first visit here and the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was inviting. Having the owner come and introduce himself and talk to us says a lot about him and the restaurant. Will definitely be regulars. We’ve been looking for good Italian food in the area and we have now found it.“

“We come from New York and lived in Boca Raton and have now lived in Cornelius for four years and the food here in North Carolina is horrible to say the least! Acqua Ragazza is finally a place where you can find an excellent dining experience! The only downfall is that the prices are a bit high for the area where it is located and to add insult to injury when we asked for additional bread, they charged us a whopping four dollars which after what we were charged for the meal was shocking to say the least! Aside from that unless you either live in The Point in Mooresville or The Peninsula in Cornelius, very few people in this area will be able to afford the prices! Just a Point to Ponder for Management!“

“Amazing food and service.“

“After reading most of the reviews I can personally attest that many are accurate. We have been 3x , one lunch and 2 dinners. Lunch was good, no complaints at all but will agree the $$ is a bit high but what isn’t today. Now on to the dinners , both times it was 2 couples I would rate the first visit a 1 and the second a 4.5. The first experience was not pleasant. Slow service, cold dinner the list goes on. We decided to give it a go last week and a complete 180. Very good service very good food and our guests loved it as well. Everyone has an off day so very glad we tried it again. Next time it will be another lunch visit.“

“The food is really good. The restaurant was clean. The waitress was friendly. The problem was management. A family near me had finished their meal. The gentleman had scooted his chair out to get up. The chair leg broke and the gentleman fell on the floor. The only people to check on him were the other patrons. No one came to see if he was hurt or the see if he needed another chair...NOTHING!! The waitress came by to give them their bill and asked how he was and that was it. I was upset for the gentleman and the family. They handled the situation with grace. If a family is in the customer service industry, take care of your customers.“

“Wow! Delicious food and great service. We are new to the area and decided to try out Bambini late on a Sunday night. We ordered carry out with a 20 minute drive back home. Food was hot when we sat down. Salads were fresh. Salad dressings both seemed to be made in house... both very good! The bread they give you was warm and soft. Restaurant looked clean and service was excellent. Gentleman at the front made sure the order was correct before I walked out the door. Will definitely be back for both carry out and sit down.“

“My favorite restaurant in downtown! The service with Nikki is always great and the food is always delicious! What makes it even more special is the kindness of making “pizza” for my daughter - bread topped with a little mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce toasted in the oven. Love this little gem so much!“

“We LOVE Vesuvios. We drive from lexington just to eat there. It's our favorite Italian restaurant we have been to yet. They always have friendly, attentive service who take care of whatever you need! The food is just beyond amazing. If you can make a garlic knot that good, the whole menu is bound to be amazing! Working our way through it one meal at a time 💓 *edited to add, we also had Tiziana for our NYE dinner, and she was sweet, attentive and very kind. As she always has been when we've been in the restaurant*“

“We had Pomodoros tonight and it was absolutely fantastic. The services was amazing! The prices add very reasonable, the food is to die for, and the owner really cares!! The steak special today was a real treat!!“

“We went online before we arrived to be added to the waitlist, but it was still a little wait to be seated (It was a Friday night). The hostesses seemed a little off and confused (maybe they were new).
Once we got seated, it took a few minutes before our server came over to introduce herself and then a few more minutes before she came to take our order. She seemed very frazzled. She was nice but seemed nervous. Every time she sat something down on the table, she slammed it down (hopefully not on purpose), but it was loud enough to be startling.
The food was ready surprisingly fast, and it was all accurate and very good.
We would likely visit again, but maybe not on a busier weekend day.“

“Amazing Pizza, Great Owner“

“First time here and at first glance we thought this place was misleading (it’s inside a Raw Bar). This place was awesome. The service was amazing and the food was top notch. We had the calamari that had a balsamic glaze which I have never had in calamari before but to my surprise it was amazingly delicious. Next I had the salmon. If you are not a mushroom lover I would not recommend but since I am it was sooooo delish. The salmon melted like butter. The green beans were also cooked to perfection. My favorite part of the whole night was the crème brûlée….honnneeyyyyy it was out of this world. I wish it came in a large size(that’s cause I’m greedy but it was oh so good!! The wine selection and drinks were also very good. Overall, we had an excellent night. I would recommend this place 👍🏽 we will be going back soon.“
