50 Best Italian Restaurants near Maywood

“Rosario and his staff are the best! Consistently great food and service!! Always smile , a joke and a great meal!! Maywood needed this place!!!“

“I was about to place an order with this place since I've never tried them. I live locally once going through their menu online. I was shocked to see and I'm trying to figure out how they can charge $10.40 for an order of french fries. When you can go to Chick-fil-A and get fresh cut literally french fries a large fry for $4.25 just shocking the price along with other items on their menu like I'm missing something are these magic french fries maybe God cut these french fries buy hand maybe that's why they're so expensive. Oh well.I never ended up placing an order so I can't rate the food“

“Absolutely amazing !! Convenient coat check. Beautiful environment. Food was just incredible and coursed out perfectly. very affordable, considering the experience and quality of food and comparing to other restaurants in the area. Loved the complementary dessert tasting at the end of the meal. Would totally go back to do the tasting menu, but we will not be in town - we're from WI and visit the city often. Will definitely come back.“

“Casa Lever is simply one of the absolute best Italian restaurants in New York City. Every time you go, it’s a sure thing.

The ambiance is beautiful. The room, the lighting, the artwork, everything feels elegant and thoughtfully designed. It’s classic New York with a refined Italian sensibility that runs through every detail.

The food is spectacular. You can tell they use the best ingredients and care deeply about quality, down to the smallest touches. Everything feels intentional and elevated.

The service is equally exceptional. Antonio, the maître d’, is wonderful. He is friendly, accommodating, and genuinely welcoming. The entire team makes you feel taken care of without ever being overbearing.

And the attention to detail really extends everywhere. The bathrooms are immaculate and always have an attendant, stocked with beautiful products from Santa Maria Novella and Diptyque. It’s a small thing, but it says a lot about the level of care they bring to the entire experience.

As part of the Sant Ambroeus family, Casa Lever represents the very top tier of what they do. It’s a true New York staple and has been for years. In my opinion, it’s one of the best.. if not the best Italian restaurant in the city.“

“Solid neighborhood spot. The downstairs is more of a bar (but still serving real food), while upstairs is sit-down and family friendly. The orecchiette was tasty, and the pesto had a nice fresh flavor. The sopressetta and hot honey pizza was a great balance of flavors and a touch of heat. For dessert, we had the banana bread pudding, which was cinnamon-y and cozy.“

“Staying at the hotel, Bocca di Bacco Chelsea was a great choice easy to get to, cozy, friendly staff and the food was absolutely delicious. It felt comfortable and welcoming like a place you’d happily go back to again.“

“Truly lovely experience all around. We were welcomed into this cozy spot by a friendly staff with Kimi taking extra care to make our evening pleasant. Seating is limited with reservations becoming necessary to guarantee a space, but honestly the space is the perfect set up for good conversation. The wine list was nicely curated—we chose the 2017 Super Tuscan, which was smooth, rich, and paired well across the meal. We began with the antipasto. The quality was immediately apparent... the prosciutto was buttery on the palate and the house pickled veggies added a bright, fresh note. For the mains, the cacio e pepe had the perfect creamy texture (I need the chef to teach me their ways for this!), well-balanced salt to black pepper, and good bite to the pasta. My husband was lucky enough to snag the final duck ragu special of the evening and (wow!) we're so glad to have done so. Perfectly cooked with tender meat and flavors that transported us right back to the osterias on the streets of Italy. We ended with the tiramisu (light and creamy) and a pistachio affogato, which did get a bit outshined. Hospitality was top notch here making this is a “must add” meal experience for your list. We will definitely be returning for more.“

“Some restaurants radiate warmth the moment you step inside, and this is one of them. From the seating to the final farewell, every staff member was polite and professional. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the pasta was easily one of the best I've ever had.
Oh, and don't miss out on the cocktails! We ordered the ‘Vagabondo’ and the ‘Espresso Martini,’ and both were absolutely delicious.
Truly a place I want to revisit on a special day.“

“I mean, what can I say? I sat at the bar, like a lonely weirdo, and the staff was amazing. Fun people, great food, great service, and every one of the staff members has a great backstory. I’m only here four nights, I’ll probably come back four times.“
