36 Best Italian Restaurants near Derry

“Such a friendly staff, we had an amazing meal!“

“We ordered Rig A Tony’s catering for my son’s 1st birthday, and it was amazing. They even pulled off our order during the crazy Thanksgiving rush and everything still came out perfect. The chicken cutlets and sauce tasted just like my Papa’s homemade meals —so good. Our guests loved it, and we’ll definitely be back for our takeout nights. Highly recommend!“

“Drove 50 minutes to meet friends we haven’t seen in a while, only to be told upon being seated we had only 90 minutes. All through meal an underlying sense of being rushed. No offer of dessert or dessert menu, just told someone was waiting for our table. Minutes later waiter started clearing glasses, silverware off table in front of us. Food was very good, too bad experience was“

“Excellent pizza! Had my first pizza last night and I will be having many more!“

“Hardly five stars. Deleted my complaint . Nice owner. Charged me 3 times for 2 pizzas. Guess she needs 64 bucks more than me. I find that to be poor business and the woman could not even be bothered to contact me. Will never go back nor will I recommend the place. Too bad cause the pizza was not bad and Jess is quite lovely. Owner should take customer service lessons from her. My previous complaint was deleted!!“

“We have come to Villaggio three times within the last six months. This place is excellent and we will be returning again and again. The service the food and the atmosphere everything is five stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Have always enjoyed the food, eating in or take out. During covid when open we enjoyed many a meal and always felt our business was appreciated. Tonight my wife called to place an order ( of roughly 200.00 to 250.00) for our family. Understandably it took a while for the phone to be answered and when it was and my wife said " hello I would like to place a take out order" received " we are not taking take out orders this eve" and was abruptly hung up on. We have been loyal supporters of this establishment pretty since it opened. Never spending another penny here. Our money was great when things were lean, sadly unappreciated. Thanks.“

“The corned beef sandwich just dripping with mustard was loaded with sweetness. My husband can’t pack a sandwich like that. I stop their twice a week.“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The service is always an A+ The food is always an A+ We drive all the way here from MA for dinner 🩷“

“Great visit! 5 stars, bartenders are very friendly. The new guy is awesome! Food excellent!“

“I'm not quite sure why this post says I'm recommending because unfortunately it was a horrible visit. We had been there before and enjoyed the food, cocktails and atmosphere. This particular night our waitress was great at first but after sitting there for two hours and eating the free bread,an appetizer and an entree along with two cocktails we were told we could not get a dessert martini. She claimed it was a "new rule". Strange because we have done this before. She offered us dessert, we said no thank you. We were already disappointed with the Chicken Primavera and my fiance's under cooked ravioli. She walks away without offering the check and has her coworker come over with takeout boxes and starts boxing up our meals. I asked if most of my meal could be put in the box without all the excess oil because my food was drowning in it. The brunette with glasses made the comment that the oil will get absorbed by the pasta. So rude!! Don't get!! It's oil not water and my food was drowning in it. I have never felt so kicked out in my life!! It was 6:30 on Friday. Thanks ladies.“

“What a wonderful experience… Exceptional service by Anthony, our server… Gluten free food was delicious and the desserts are spectacular…“

“The food is amazing and the atmosphere is lovely. Favorite and best Italian place around town.“

“I had a great overall experience and would still give this place 5 stars. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and well-prepared, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.

The only downside was the service time — it took quite a while to receive our food, and the wait exceeded expectations. However, the staff remained polite and attentive despite how busy it was, which I really appreciated.

Even with the longer wait, the quality of the food and the overall experience made it worth it. I would definitely come back again and recommend it to others!“

“Two fantastic visits - 1/31 and 2/25 - for my wife's birthday and then mine. Patrick provided awesome service, and our food was AWESOME! I had seen bacon-wrapped scallops on the appetizer menu and knew I was getting that! Main courses were also fantastic, and Patrick conversed with us about the paranormal events experienced there, since we are ghost hunting fans. AWESOME EXPERIENCE!! Can't wait to go again.“

“Always a great value and service at the bar is the best! Teddy remembers what you drink and eat. Always happy when I go to 900 degrees!“

“Piccolo Restaurant on Elm st Manchester Nh - the absolute BEST place for Italian! Lunch or dinner ! We’ve been for both!“

“This is one of the very few restaurants that will make you immediately feel at home! You can tell right from the start how much everyone and everything is appreciated and cared for which I believe is the benefit of a family owner restaurant especially when the family is as welcoming and caring as this one. From the martinis coming from the bar (with friendly service from Krista), especially my favorites the homemade creamy limoncello martini, their REAL espresso martinis, and their lemon drop to name a few, to the made to order dishes that you can customize to meet your preferred tastes or needs- everything is just done right! The appetizers are literally to die for- the eggplant a la romana will melt in your mouth, the world famous seafood mushroom are definitely world famous and the clams casino are 👌! For dishes I would recommend their double pork chop alla Nicola with truffle fries, their chicken or veal francese, their Marsala, saltimbocca, chicken langistino on their specials, and their amazing eggplant parm. Make sure you get their homemade pasta which they have 3 to choose from! If you truly know when a restaurant is overall special, then you won't have a hard time choosing the Colosseum for your next dine out experience. Despite when they get busy, I don't think they disappoint. Well worth the wait!!“

“We came to town on business and found ourselves hungry and no idea where to go. The great reviews led us to East Side Grill and we were so happy we did. The food was fresh and tasty. Ample in size and made just right. The staff not only is friendly, they made us feel like they were genuinely happy to serve us. They will be our first stop next time we are in town.“

“I just had a neighbor give me some lasagna that his son brought him. Best lasagna I've ever had, I've never been there but, just tying one bite I'm hooked. The sauce is so good I could drink it. Pasquale's is a MUST TRY! 5 🌟 Star“

“I put Capri at the top of the list of Windham area establishments! The pizza sauce is easily the best flavored sauce around! I’m also a sub connoisseur, and their Italian subs, as well as their steak n cheese is amazing! I had a ham n cheese calzone with pepperoni the other night that was my favorite calzone ever! I can go on and on!“

“They have the Best food“

“Great service! Smiling faces and quick to make a great pie. Got the Casablanca and it was flawless.“

“They sling a good Roast Beef 3way“

“absolutely the best pizza around. friendly. clean they work hard and deserve every succesd“

“Amazingly crafted sauce recipe. I normally get heartburn off of red sauce but this one is good.

This is THE BEST crust you will get within at least 25 miles. I’d honestly say that this is the best pizza you will get between Boston and all of New Hampshire.

Friendly people and they work hard to keep these pizzas and other food coming out top notch.

If you are looking for a 9/10 rating pizza, you call them and pay them. Tip them too… we need these pizzas to keep spinning!“

“The good is always great and hot! The pizza and wings are the best. The best thing about Rocco's besides the delicious food is the service. We always ask for Patrick the waiter. Never had a waiter that is as awesome as he is. He truly loves his guests and is a pleasure to talk with. Rocco's has a gem with Patrick working there.“

“First time customer. Was craving chicken fingers. Went by reviews. We got the family pack of chicken stix and the amount of food is overwhelming, in a good way lol I’m super picky about my chicken and this is so good. We got it with JoJo potatoes and I’ll never be able to enjoy a regular french fry again. The pack also came with a hefty portion of coleslaw, which was very tasty. Food arrived hot, and is a great value for the price. Thank you Uncle Joey!“

“We love what the Tuscan village provides our local community. Great events to bring Salem together!“

“Awesome as always! Love them!😊“

“Amazing owners amazing staff and great food!!!“

“I moved back to Nashua after years of living in Orange County, NY, and North Jersey. I missed the pizza I had grown to love there. I got talking with someone I met here who grew up in Jersey and he recommended Soprano's. I gave them a try today and I am in love! It really is the closest here in Nashua that I can find to my beloved pizza back in Jersey. Highly recommended!“

“Not only are their gluten free cakes beautiful , they are delicious. For people with Celiac Disease having a beautiful cake to celebrate with is a difficult task. We are so grateful to Luciano’s. I highly recommend them.“

“One of my favorite Moes locations. I drove back to NH from TX for a motorcycle competition. I had to stop here. They were nice enough to make a pair of deconstruction subs that I could put in my cooler and share with my wife after driving back to TX“

“Not sure how else to add a new review. Loved the old owners. New owners need to update the site since it is no longer relevant and belongs to the last family. Not a good look for you. We loved this place. When it changed hands we stopped ordering, was not good. I think they needed time, as expected. Second time ordering since new owners. Update the site with current info. Let ppl know its under new ownership. Shows better. Its not italian but Indian ownership. With that being said, delicious. Glad I gave it a second chance. We waited ample time. Not greasy, lots of toppings, full of flavor! Amazing. Im glad we tried again. We will be ordering again! We love Suppas but this is equal for sure. So happy!“

“I went in for a slice of pizza a few minutes before they closed. They had some pepperoni left. Man was that a good slice of pizza, even for a piece that was not as fresh as a whole pie. I am excited to try a whole pizza, nice and fresh. Secondly they make cookie oreo brownies, inhouse from scratch. I had to grab one and let me tell you just how worth it it was. Chocolatey and thick and delicious. The staff is very sweet and the owner is an incredible lady.“
