50 Best Italian Restaurants near Roxbury

“We always love ordering from La Gratella. For big parties we like to order a tray of Cavatelli and Broccoli with chicken in their garlic sauce, it's absolutely delicious! Their lunch specials are also great, my favorite is the chicken francese sub!“

“We went last night to celebrate NYE at Rosie's... the food was delicious, however we did not get our dinner until 10:45. We arrived at 8:30. In fact, our table was last to receive each course of the meal, and it was just too slow. The bill for 4, with tip, was $650, which is too much to receive such poor service.“

“ordered a tomato pie and Italian sub, the pizza was fantastic and the sub had fresh quality meats and the roll was terrific. I would highly recommend this place to any one who enjoys authentic Italian food. Nice job.“

“Delicious food! Great staff!“

“Beautiful alfresco dining weather permitting. Dinner never disappoints all selections excellemt. Best mussels ever. It’s not about the mussels but about the sauce which is FABULOUS.“

“Best pizza in town. Also better than 90% of pizza in NYC. My family loves Enzo's Pizza.“

“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!!!“

“We were there several times. It was great. Service was great as well.“

“Little Nicki’s was wonderful. The food was delicious and presentation was beautiful…wonderful atmosphere very friendly. Victoria gave us great service. And the owner Dom was delightful. Will be back real soon…“

“Fabulous food. Honestly don’t think there are many restaurants who can beat the food quality. If you haven’t tried it, you should.“

“Four of us enjoyed this hidden gem in Randolph this evening. All four appetizers and entrees were superb. In both taste and presentation. Great value for the price and the services was superior. I recommend this restaurant highly for all.“

“I recently held a birthday dinner for about 30 guests. I cannot express enough my sincere gratitude and appreciation for a wonderful event. David, Engin, and Nicole were invaluable throughout the planning process as well as executing the service and bar for the party. The chef did an exceptional job with the food and the amount of choices available to me was incredible. The service throughout the night was impeccable. There was never a dry glass and the food was served promptly and efficiently. I am so happy I chose Zola's for my husband's special day. We are frequent patrons of this restaurant and have always loved their food. This party exceeded my high expectations. Thanks to all who made this a memorable night. I highly recommend this restaurant for a great meal and or special occasion.“

“Had dinner on 6/2/22. We had a party of 9 all together. Sat in the back room. Both the food and the server were fantastic. Sorry I didn't get her name. Come here maybe 3 or 4 times a year. Never disappointed!!“

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

“I have had two bridal showers at Portofino in Oak Ridge, and not only did everyone love the food, but Nancy and the entire staff is outstanding. They go above and beyond to help you in any capacity that they can. I highly recommend Portofino either for lunch, dinner or any kind of event you have whether it is big or small. You can't go wrong with Portofino, I can't say enough great things about the staff and restaurant!“

“I have switched to getting my pizza here on Fridays after work. It's convenient for me & my family who are picky about their pizza, love it. I've been very happy with the light, crispy crust, the sauce is delicious & we like how the cheese melts right into the crust. They even make 2 slices for me with just sauce, no cheese. Most pizzarias won't do that. I recommend you give them a try.“

“The pizza is out of this world. The sauce is incredible and my favorite has to be the Brooklyn MVP and the Portney Bar Pie! Whole menu makes it so I can mix it up but I seem to always go back to the Brooklyn MVP! Great spot, great menu, amazing food!“

“Very accommodating, great food, great atmosphere and wonderful place to dine“

“Thank you Sapori for the amazing food you made for my family Father's Day party! The Baked ziti was so cheesy good, the green salad fresh & crisp, bruschetta was crunchy & lots of topping, & shrimp scampi garlic yum! the service was so friendly! Many Blessings to your family from Ken & JoAnne Betz xo“

“I loved this experience very good. The real tall blond lady helped me with my walker and walked me to the door. Such a kind and caring soul on gods green earth. Blessed thy heart!“

“Table 42 is a traditional Italian staple and a true gem in Dover. While we will always miss Chuck, we hope the new owner preserves the incredible ambiance and vibe that keeps the regulars coming back! There's simply no other place like it. A huge part of why we return is Mauricio the Chef, who makes the best pasta fagioli, and the wonderful servers like Joannie. We go for that unique feeling as much as for the fantastic food. Table 42 reminded me of Cheers, I truly hope it doesn’t lose its uniqueness.“

“Always good food…soup is always fresh, they carry great empanadas too!“

“Ron's did our banquet of 160 people and everyone said the food was excellent. We found the staff on time with the food, extremely helpful, fairly priced and very generous with amounts. We will be using Ron's going forward. Thanks so much, Ron, it was great!“

“A Hidden Gem in Wharton That Keeps Getting Better!

This evening we had a truly wonderful dinner at Reno’s Pizzeria and Restaurant in Wharton, NJ. From start to finish, everything about our visit was top-notch. Our server, Shirley, was incredibly attentive—friendly, prompt, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. What really stood out, though, was that Reno himself came by to check in and ensure we were enjoying our evening. It’s not every day you see that level of care and pride from an owner, and it absolutely elevated the experience.

We started with two fantastic appetizers—the eggplant rollatini and little neck clams in marinara sauce. Both were delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. For entrees, we chose the mahi mahi in mango sauce special and the shrimp scampi over linguini. Each dish was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. Compliments to the chef—truly excellent work in the kitchen!

We ended our meal on a sweet note with the mini cannolis, which were perfectly crispy and bursting with flavor.

Although Reno’s (formerly Maria’s) has been a staple in town for some time, their recent expansion into a charming sit-down dining area has added so much to the local dining scene. It’s cozy, welcoming, and a perfect spot for a relaxed and satisfying dinner. Reno’s is a real asset to Wharton, and we’ll definitely be back! (PS It's BYOB!)“

“Thank you, George and staff Always aiming to make things right.“

“i love the pizza and pasta“

“To be fair, my rating is over 4. It's more like a 4.6 since 1 of us 6 mentioned a slight negative about the flavor of her chicken. And our per person cost was about $50. I expected that, but that's okay. The sights outside were very nice. The grandchildren enjoyed themselves which is a plus. If you have a boat, you can actually dock it at the Windlass and order a meal. They also have several cabana looking coverings along the dock which can be reserved so you can enjoy your meal there. My wife noticed that the seating can glide forward and back.“

“Carmine's is our go to place whenever we crave Italian or a cheesesteak. Husband and I were there yesterday for late lunch. Excellent pasta fagioli soup, huge slices of pizza, and overstuffed, cheesesteak. Great service and reasonable prices. We were informed there is an extra charge if you're not paying cash. This is becoming a common practice and we were informed of it. Server was excellent and made us feel welcome. I was asked if I knew of any pizza parlors served gluten free and of course I recommended Carmine's.“

“Just started ordering from Anthony & Sons all the way from Northeastern PA and couldn't be happier with the selection and fantastic service. Excited to incorporate their breads and rolls into our menu.“

“The food here is outstanding & delicious! You must try the Sicilian Grandma's Pizza. The crust was amazing as is how they make a Sicilian slice of pizza. It's the right balance of crust and fresh ingredients without it being overpowered with dough. The salad we had was delicious too. Everything so far we had here is just phenomenal as is the customer service, staff & owner. Definitely go and check it out!“

“We had an absolutely spectacular lunch at Olive Garden! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, and best of all , we enjoyed a great meal with great friends.

Our waitress Yuly, excellent, friendly attentive and made sure everything was perfect throughout our lunch. The manager, Tai, also stopped by to check on us and made sure we were happy, which was such a nice personal touch.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. Great food, excellent service, and wonderful company made for a fantastic lunch experience. We will definitely be back.“

“I truly am so excited about this restaurant. Me and my fiancé moved over a year ago and we kept trying pizza places and kept getting disappointed. I saw a post about this place and was skeptical because of all of our previous experiences with food in this area. PAISANOS DID NOT DISAPPOINT. This is the best take out in this area hands down. Thank you so much for putting so much love in your food.“

“Great food awesome staff great owners👍“

“Great aesthetics, pleasant friendly staff, great bar menu and drink specials also the Diner menu is available and the food is Amazing every time, The prices are fair With many options. There is spacious parking, handicap accessible (no stairs) the bathrooms are clean!!“

“DELISH! I ordered a full tray of chicken Parm and of baked ziti. My family devoured everything and asked to take a dish home. Very generous servings and delicious. The phone order was soooo nice and the delivery was timely. I would recommend for your next catering need.“

“We love this place! I've never once gotten something from here that I didn't like. Simply the best in the area!“
