50 Best Italian Restaurants near West New York

“The owner is from Sicily, he uses his mom's recipe for the meal I had today. I can't pronounce it, but it was a bowl of pasta with Parmesan, tomatoes, peas, beef and bread on the side. I finished the meal and got the recommended espresso. This exceeded my expectations and I have never tasted anything as rich and authentic. I highly recommend this place for takeout, or a quick bite and espresso. Incredible.“

“My office catered the food today it was so delicious that everyone in the office took left overs home for dinner! Speaks volumes no food in the office left! Thank you Everyone at REMAX VILLA left the office with a smile & a full belly!“

“I highly recommend this place!!! Those of you who live nearby should eat nearby? Go here haha

The store is a local pizza place where many locals eat and take out.

The owner is very kind and smiles while greeting me in Korean.

The most important pizza! We ordered a large pepperoni & mushroom pizza. The pizza was made right away, so it was warm and the cheese was delicious. This is a place where you can experience the true value of American pizza.“

“We had the pleasure of trying New Pizza on the Block while we stayed in West New York. Our sons wanted pizza and we wanted something Italian with past and it did not disappoint! When I tell you it was the best past we ever had, we aren’t joking. The sauces and chicken were cooked to perfection and the pizzas were just delicious. A couple of days later we tried a famous Italian restaurant in Little Italy, which was good, but couldn’t compare. Amazing!“

“By far the best pasta and pizza ever! 👅💦🍕🍝“

“rica comida mexicana y los panes son delicioso también ❤️😍🔥“

“"Excelente atención y servicio rápido en esta pizzería cubana. Los precios son asequibles y, en general, las pizzas y espaguetis son deliciosos. Sin embargo, en mi último viaje, las pizzas estaban un poco quemadas, lo cual fue decepcionante. ?Espero que mantengan su encanto y continúen ofreciendo comidas deliciosas en el futuro."“

“Been ordering from here for years, and the food is always consistently amazing. I have dined here as well getting delivery and in both situations I can honestly say that I received excellent service. Some of my favorite foods there are their mozzarella sticks, their chicken wings, their cheese wonton, and so so much more. Bottom line their food is top-notch - give 'em a try if you haven't already!“

“Delicious food, speedy service, their prices are really affordable too. All around great restaurant. My favorite dish is their churrasco!“

“Great Italian food and a decent menu, not much choice but not too much. It's located next to Post Office 34 and is very trendy. The view and service are great, but it's noisy as there isn't much to absorb the sound. We ordered focaccia, roasted peppers and pasta. Everything is great and super fresh.“

“Absolutely the best food in NYC we finally got a bar seat this past Saturday was in the city for pride we have been trying for years everything was spot on crysathenn salad, the stuffed flatbread and lasagna and cocoa tiramisu“

“Excellent quality, service and ambiance!“

“The cocktail selection is phenomenal, it’s balanced and delicious, even the people sat next to us agreed! My favorite dish is probably stuffed farfalle with snow crab. It’s creamy and just the right amount of crab, flour and sauce to balance each bite! You’ll be amazed!! Another go to is definitely steak. It’s lightly fried on the outside but juicy inside which is not overly oily, spicy crunch on top adds an Asian style kick. A gem place for sure!!💕“

“Easily one of the best meals of my life! Crazy creative! Only 16 seats, very special in all ways.“

“Went for our anniversary!! Had an amazing meal!! Wonderful service and great atmosphere!! Highly recommend!!“

“cameriera italiana con capelli corti. scortese e molto maleducata. non tornerò piu. non ha saputo ne servire il cliente oltre al fatto che dovrebbe farsi un corso di corretto italiano prima di parlare con un cliente in quel modo. pessima pubblicità al locale. peccato e mi dispiace ma non tornerò più.“

“Pleasant less formal atmosphere, but very efficient service. Delicious pastes. I highly recommend :)“

“This place is amazing the food is so authentic and filled with flavor, BUT I WITNESSED THE PREP COOK, he wears glasses directly in front of the bar counter. He met a female customer in the bathroom they were gone for at least 5 to 8 minutes together. It’s sad because this behavior would stop me from visiting this place with my family. He needs to be gone this is not a brothel to be intimate with customers. It turns out the female works across the street from the restaurant. Food is great but he just makes me and my wife very uncomfortable“

“Spectacular meal! Best veal and Taglioni that we have had….

Noli was excellent and we had a Barollo we will search out when we get home….

A perfect end to a first day in NYC of museum and a show….“

“I just love this place... !“

“I have been at least a half-dozen times, and they never disappoint. Service is nearly perfect; the food is absolutely superb (fish last night may be among the best I've ever had -- and I eat out a lot), and the personal attention is so appreciated. I'll be back --- and I HIGHLY recommend it!“

“El personal es muy amable, atentos y deliciosa comida.“

“The wait staff and food were absolutely amazing.“

“Atmosfera e cibo top! Consigliassimo“

“Cadre très sympa et pizza au top !“

“We had high expectations for Via Carota, but our experience was mixed. The first fungi dish we received was clearly burned, so we sent it back. The staff handled it professionally and brought us a replacement, but unfortunately the second one was only average and still not as good as we expected.

The atmosphere is charming and the service was friendly, which we appreciated. However, for a restaurant with such a strong reputation, the food didn’t quite live up to the hype during our visit. Hoping this was just an off day.“

“repas poisson excellent et canolli extra“

“Great food, warm and welcoming staff.“

“This is a great restaurant, last year (2023) we came twice and Ram was great, his service and attitude was fantastic, and this year (2024) we came back again just to see him (and of course to have some drinks and great food).“

“Amazing food, service, and atmosphere! Made a special celebration that much more momentous. Do not skip the prosciutto with ricotta or octopus apps-delicious!“

“Wonderful Christmas Eve dinner on our visit to NYC. Service & Food were both excellent. Lovely family setting.“

“An amazing time! Atmosphere was very warm and the food was incredible!“

“It was our first time visiting New York and da Toscano came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint! One of the best meals we have had in a very long time, and the service was second to none! Thank you for a wonderful evening 😊“

“Came to a wedding and the food is absolutely phenomenal!“

“My husband and I have been going to Daphne’s since we moved back to Brooklyn. While food and service have been excellent without fail, Jackie is who keeps us coming back month after month. Her warmth, kindness, and knowledge are unparalleled, and we can’t imagine having a better time at dinner with anyone else.“

“We had our wedding at Rialto and couldn’t imagine a perfect ceremony and reception.

Dominic and the Rialto team were incredible. Super attentive and went out of their way to make sure our day was as special as can be.

We have no idea how but they managed to make sure the food was always fresh and hot when served, even the branzino, which is not easy to do all at once for ~75 people. Seriously impressive.

They really outdid themselves and we will definitely come back to Rialto for dinner which now holds a special place in our hearts. ❤“

“Amazing dining experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We tried a few dishes from the menu, and everything tasted authentic with generous portions. The ambiance is cozy, and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. Definitely a place worth visiting if you're looking for quality Italian food. Highly recommended!“

“Visited on Tuesday evening quite late and had such an amazing experience at Osteria Nonnino. We shared a pizza to start, followed by fish and the vodka pasta for mains – every dish was absolutely outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and we felt so well looked after from start to finish. The food was honestly second to none. Such a hidden gem, would highly recommend to anyone in NYC.“

“The staff were amazing and so was the food! My Mom has a very restrictive diet and she was able to eat and didn’t have a reaction afterward which is rare for her unfortunately. We came into the restaurant 5 minutes before closing and was able to accommodate our large party. Cannot say enough good things!“

“Had a fabulous first time at Il Gigante. Sat at the bar - shout out to Matthew and Kayla for taking such good care of us. Great ambience, not too loud, but still a fun atmosphere. Food was exceptional. The pasta and all the ingredients were fresh and portion sizes were hefty! Great price for the food and drinks. Just all around fabulous! Cheers!!!“

“We went into Cafe Mars with little knowledge beforehand and we're pleasantly surprised by our experience there. The food was overall excellent. We went when they had the Japanese Italian fusion menu and loved most of the inventive dishes. The salt bread was our standout favorite and the tofu time was solid.

We loved that the staff and the ambiance made it feel like it was a fun celebration of dining. From the first seating through the plating and music, it felt like a welcoming and positive environment to enjoy inventive dishes.

The staff was friendly and professional. It made me feel like if the staff are this happy with there, then they must be treated well by the restaurant ( I hope).“

“By far our favorite restaurant we visit in the city. Have been here over 500x and the tagliatelle with sheep’s cheese cabbage and shrimp will never get old ! Carmine runs a beautiful establishment on the UWS“

“Food is wonderful, vibe is warm, and service is excellent - was so nice to talk to a real human being when trying to schedule a group dinner (rather than an AI bot as some other local restaurants use). Still thinking about the spaghetti pomodoro“

“Atmosfera e cibo top! Consigliassimo“

“We came here last night at the last minute - no reservation. Doing that on a Saturday night in the trendy west village usually results in a firm “no” from the maître D’. Instead , our party of 4 was welcomed into a lovely restaurant , quiet yet lively with a very friendly and attentive waitstaff. Had a great time and would definitely return.“

“Food is yummy! My go to place in Brooklyn! Coda is excellent and the flatbread are also yummy! The Sangiovese red wine on tap is also nice! Highly recommend and make reservations in the weekend“

“Excellent Roasted Chicken. Burrata, Garlic bread and Brick Oven pizza. The vibe is really nice and service is excellent.“

“Delicious food good service“

“This is some of the best food and the best dining experience I've ever had. Everything was so exquisite, thoughtful, flavorful, surprising, lovingly made without any frills. All you really need to do is glance at the kitchen to get it.“
