12 Best Italian Restaurants near Brookline

“Super allergy friendly! They will modify almost any of their menu items for people with dairy, gluten, egg and fish allergies.“

“Very good lunch spot! Great tasty sandwich! Cute atmosphere.“

“WOW The red sauce at this Italian restaurant is amazing! Why did I take so long to try this restaurant and I had heard great things about Giorgios. The chicken parmigiano was delicious, but the meatballs were the closest to my own special homemade recipe. The atmosphere is lively with just the right lighting. Clean and the staff is friendly and upbeat. Can't wait to go back!!!“

“This place is amazing! My bestfriend and I make a point to go a few times a month. The food is absolutely delicious, we’ve never been let down. The staff is so friendly and makes it a personable experience. I recommend this place all the time! ☺️“

“Food is always amazing, also the architecture is on point! one of the nicest restaurants in the area if you like the bar scene, they have a 30 seat bar with wonderful cocktails and appetizers too 🍾🍻“

“We are frequent flyers at the BrickHouse. Perry and his staff are quick, professional and very friendly. Staff always looks happy and the food is always amazing. This past weekend I had an event planned and we quickly had to find another location. I reached out to Perry and he was able to accommodate all of our guests in the wine bar upstairs. Even while hosting another event downstairs. Our bartender was great and the cocktails were amazing. Perry checked in with us often asking if we needed anything else. I highly recommend hosting an event here and be sure to check their Facebook page for the weekly entertainment they have.“

“Great food every time! Last night my husband picked up your take home chicken pot pie and I’m a big fan, couldn’t have made it better myself!!“

“Just WOW! My family and I just moved to the area. We’ve tried a couple places in the area, but we are a large family and everyone has their own taste. I drove past Marc’s last week and wanted to try it. This was the BEST pizza I’ve had in a long time. And the FRIES (especially if you like them thin cut like myself). We came from the city where there were multiple pizza shops, but none compare to Marc’s Pizza and Subs. My family of 10 ALL loved it, so that’s saying something! I would’ve included a picture but we devoured it before I even thought of it!“

“The Bianca Formaggi pizza was spot on!!! Great job!“

“Went for the first time yesterday. Ordered a small sausage pizza and a veal parm sub. Was ready faster than they had said. The pizza was the best I’ve had in a long time! Perfect crust and good amount of topping. Just took a bite of the veal sub and it’s soooooo yummy! Real veal cutlet, not that patty crap. The prices are very reasonable. Can’t wait to go back and try more! 😋“

“New to the area and stopped in for an impromptu lunch after church. Food was amazing, cozy mom and pop feel, and what stood out the most was the customer service. It’s becoming hard to find places that treat their patrons well. C & S Pizza nailed it. We will definitely be back.“

“The food is always pretty consistent, but unfortunately the prices charged are not. We order from here pretty often & order the same 2 sandwiches but the prices are different almost every time. Example, tonight the total was $ 18.32, the last time it was $19.43 & before that it was $ 18.87 & so on & so forth. If the order is always the same, the charge should be the same as well. I've been here in town for 40+ years, I remember when this location was called "The Pleasure House". Everyone there should be on the same page when it comes to ringing out a customer.“
