50 Best Italian Restaurants near Lebanon

“Wonderful restaurants, great service and delicious food!“

“Three of us dined there 6/27 and chose different chicken entrees. Each meal was exceptional. This BYO is better than many of the Italian restaurants in the area. Can’t wait to go back. All three of us agreed it was 5 star worthy!“

“Our local go to spot. The drunk grandma pie is our favorite. They also offer a vegan pizza which is greatly appreciated because my daughter is allergic to dairy. The staff is very nice. I called to place an order and asked if they had rice balls. They said no, but when I went to pick up my order they had made them. Very nice gesture.“

“Food is always fantastic! (Especially the arugula salad with goat cheese!) So lucky to have this hidden gem in our community!“

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! The food is absolutely delicious!!!! This Italian Restuarant, in my opinion, is the best in Clinton. The owners and staff are customer focused and if you need an ingredient changed in a dish ordered, they are more than willing to go the extra mile to make certain that you are satisfied. The atmosphere is warm and quaint which leaves one feeling very relaxed and comfortable. Be sure to dine in this restaurant, you'll be glad you did!“

“Awesome - love the broccoli rabe and sausage appetizer - so good Great pasta and chicken dishes also.“

“Had catering for a party and the food was excellent! Great job 👏 👏👏👏👏 from Tony and his staff. Plenty of leftovers!“

“I can’t say one bad thing about this restaurant - the food, the service, even the greeting at the front door was all great. As soon as my friends and I walked in we felt comfortable. We shared eggplant rollatini and bruschetta to start, and each had pasta dishes (chicken parm & lasagna) for our main entrees. We each brought half our dinners home so we could share a dessert :) which was also wonderful (fresh baked chocolate chip cookie in a cast iron pan with ice cream). We WILL be back. This place is a gem!“

“Attended a party there. Great food. We had Caesar salad, meatballs (giant), fried calamari (really good!) and our choice of entree. I chose chicken parmigiana, first off as a joke I asked the server if this was for the entire table, a huge portion! Two large chicken breasts atop a good size serving of linguine. The red sauce was excellent. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Got married there over a decade ago and have been coming out ever since. Many restaurants are good businesses and in addition to this, Demos and Jimmie show their passion for what they create. My fav is shrimp and scallops over pasta in a great cream sauce… steaks are great and Demos is a wizard in the bakery.“

“What a find! We are local but this was our first time here. Been going to the nail salon near by for years and decided to try the restaurant with friends! It is now my favorite restaurant and not only near because it is near by.

Can't wait to go back and try more from the menus. The Supa de Pesce was spectacular. Fresh and delicious! Service was great as well! Can't wait to return and try some other items on the menu! As a pescatarian this may well be my new favorite restaurant and being local
Is a bonus!!!“

“4th time we've had lunch, most recently this afternoon. Cant say enough about food prep, presentation, and taste. Lunch specials vary from light to regular entres. Menu provides enough to suit most palates. Very clean and quiet with many seating options.“

“Delicious food, great service and nice ambience!“

“We held our wedding rehearsal dinner at Dora’s and overall had a great experience! We were already frequent guests and knew this would be the perfect venue. The food was absolutely delicious, and everyone especially loved the Dora Ravioli. They allowed us to rent the entire restaurant for our party and were very accommodating, arranging the tables as we requested and placing our menus out for us. It was BYOB and they even allowed us to drop off our wine prior to the event, which was very helpful. Thank you Dora’s for a memorable night!“

“Best tacos in flemington!!!“

“Food was amazing … Fast and delicious“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“This place catered one of our company's Xmas partys and it was absolutely delicious! So much so, that I ordered several dishes Saturday for the weekend. When I picked up the food they offered me a bottle of wine, and wished me a merry xmas! (How nice was that??) I got an order of Nonna's meatballs (I'm sure there's an Italian Grandma in that kitchen stirring a big pot of homemade meatballs in marinara. No lie.) Broccali Rabe w/sausage (fantastic), garlic loaf with cheese (try adding a meatball on a slice, with that incredible sauce-🤯), a ginormous burger (tonight's dinner, but I know it'll be great) and the star of the show... the Eggplant Rollatini. (Just WOW!) Several huge slices of eggplant, crammed full of ricotta, rolled up in a pasta blanket to keep it all tucked in, swimming in a sea of incredible marinara and penne, coated with globs of melty mozzarella. [THIS dish alone should have you heading out the door immediately, to get you some!😉] I don't know HOW they can give such big portions of incredible, high quality foods for much less they you'd expect to pay, and not only stay in business, but also give away cases upon cases of free wine to their customers. My eggplant was only $23. (I swear it alone weighed 5lbs.) So far Ive gotten 3 meals out of that 1 dish and there's STILL 2 servings left. You're not finding a better value on delicious homemade food, and will not be disappointed!“

“Angelo’s never disappoints food fresh & yummy.“

“The best food, service, and reasonably priced. Family meals are a great value when you don't feel like cooking. I have also catered parties here. Thank you, for helping us out with our Girl Scout troop!!“

“We love coming here for pizza! It’s absolutely delicious! My daughter always requests to come here for lunch. The gelato and sorbet is yummy too!! Richard and Alex always serve us with a smile. Such a nice vibe.“

“All .. salad pizza is my favorite“

“My wife and I had the Margherita pie on the olive oil crust tonight for lent and it was sinfully amazing. It was so good I think I will have to go to confession. Joe and the team are rocking. Thank you for being dedicated to great food. I try pizza all through NJ, CT, NY and PA to search out pies that are above average (haven't found a great pie in PA - sorry). Great pies are all different - there are many styles, but a really good pie is a really good pie. And this is a really good pie. I hope you enjoy it, we will be back to try the other offerings.“

“This is our GO-TO place for catering when we have parties. They are so accommodating, they can make anything on or off the menu, great pricing, and they are truly appreciative for the business! Every single time we order, our guests RAVE about the food. We went out on a limb and ordered a large cheesesteak Stromboli last night and people couldn’t stop eating it. HIGHLY recommend!“

“The food is awesome on both sides! Shabo and family are wonderful hosts! We love NY Pizza and Monte Casa!“

“Excellent food and better people. Food is very tasty, fresh, and great 'inventions'. Love Angelo, Lorenzo, and Emilio. They treat you like family. You will find homemade scones made by Angelo which are very good. No one makes a better white pizza than Angelo. All the pizza is very good, the bacon chicken ranch one of my favorites. And the dinners, Jim loves the seafood, are always very delicious. No better server than Lorenzo. He knows you and will recommend for what you might like. Love the hugs. Couldn't ask for a better gem in Flemington. It is my happy place, which is what is saved on my phone.“

“Rose and Joe run a top notch bakery. All of their stuff is fresh and delicious. If you want bread get there early though! It sells out quick! ❤️“

“Delicious thin crust pizza! Came upon this shop while wandering through Jersey. Originally local to the New Haven ct area, so am hard pressed to admit any place compares, but the pizza was amazing. Wonderful staff, very friendly. Loved the white pie, and took home the chicken bacon ranch for the kids. Will definitely pit stop here again while passing through Jersey. Will give Jersey the pizza win for the day.“

“Great food. Pizza and dinners“

“Love their food one problem they always deliver to my house on a Sunday I called up ordering for delivery the guy told me that they don’t deliver to my area Told him your boss told me you do he asked his boss he then said oh well we’re backed up so why don’t you order from the Hillsboro one the Hillsboro one is further away from me then Flemington location I will give them another shot because I like their food but I’m making it clear I’m unhappy with their staff and the way I was treated when all I wanted was a pizza Sunday night“

“Not only is the food delicious but the people are wonderful! They always remember our name and make our kids feel so special. If I could give it 10 stars I would, can’t possibly recommend this place enough!“

“everything! they are the best around❤“

“I love there buffalo pizza 😋so delicious“

“Broccoli on pizza was tender flowers. Very good overall!“

“Great food awesome staff great owners👍“

“I never give five stars for anything, as five star would be perfection. Guess what, this is the best Italian food I have had outside of Italy. Produce is obviously fresh and high standard. I'm a bit of a foodie, and I've eaten in some expensive restaurants that don't have food as good as this. I won't go anywhere else.“

“While your food is delicious, your customer service need work. Some of the younger kids rush you off the phone and when you pick up your food its even worse. no thank you, no nothing. just sign here and they walk away. almost short of bring rude“

“Union county in the house! The best pizza in the area here in warren county .Compares to none other. Tried them all in the 20 years since we moved here. We Always ask for thin crust and it never disappoints. Mangia mangia!“

“The food is always delicious, highly recommend the 420 Burger, and the chicken and Swiss panini, or the blackened ribeye. And just tonight I tried their special for a loaded baked potato and it was huge and delicious I hope they keep it on the menu. And the staff is always friendly and the delivery drivers are awesome.“

“Very good Pizza and very friendly staff. We went as a group and they took care of us with no problem. When I am in the area again, this will be where I go to eat...“

“Got 6 pizzas from gabbys for a bounce city birthday party. My son has a severe egg allergy and they promised to mark a pie and take extra care with it. He was able to eat it without any issue and we all enjoyed the pizza a lot. Thank you Gabby’s!“

“Very good normal pizza here.

Quick and easy, in and out. I found this to be a great spot to stop in for a single slice while walking through Chester.

Bella. You might be wondering, “how can I get another star?”

Well, I recommend starting communications with either BCG or McKinsey to find ways to unlock value within your business. It’s definitely there, just needs some work.“
