50 Best Italian Restaurants near Ardsley

“Chef Scott Fratangelo had a special the evening we dined there of chicken with tarragon velouté, shaved Brussels sprouts, crispy fried artichokes and pine nuts. It was as sensational as anything you would get in a 2 Michelin star restaurant. Simply superb. I preceded it with a spicy basil Margarita made by Francisco and a little gem salad with cubed sweet potato, radishes and feta with a delicious dressing. Serving us was Javier, the gold standard in his field. Kevin manned the front of the house that night and he was as charming as ever. Fratangelo is an incredibly talented chef and his wife an equally as gifted pastry chef. I urge you to sample their food. You will not be disappointed.“

“Love this place. The food is delicious. The staff is wonderful!!!“

“I am a registered nurse and after a long day I was on my way home from work to buy something they recognized my profession during this pandemic and thanked me and gave me something free of charge it was touching thank you kind people That made my day!!!!“

“The food and service are outstanding. The restaurant part is small and really part of the main takeout and quick service area. Although all of the previous lends to the charm of this small family style Italian restaurant.
Attentive servers are quick and ready and the food come right from the kitchen about 5' away, so it's fresh, it's hot, and it's tasty!“

“We just discovered this place - I think it’s still a secret. You must understand that I do not like most Westchester Pizzerias. This place is different . They have, hands down the best tasting Pizza Crust in Westchester - better than Johnnys, better than Nonnas, and it’s not even close. Their Broccoli Rabe and sausage pie knocked my socks off. Their Gelato is good, too. Pistachio and vanilla were both great.“

“My friends raved about this place and brought me. It may have been expensive, but it was well worth it! My friends were absolutely right to rave about this place! The food was phenomenal! The service was impeccable! The atmosphere was exquisite! I have to come back again!“

“Wonderful food. Wonderful service!“

“The place is absolutely beautiful, with exceptional warmth and elegance. The staff's service is among the best I've ever experienced, and as for the food, I'm simply speechless. Without a doubt, this is a magical and incredible place!“

“I will recommend to all Friends and Family“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

THIS PLACE!! After a long international flight into JFK and driving back to Boston with hungry kids, I stumbled on Da Giorgio, and it changed everything. The restaurant was packed but we were seated in minutes, surrounded by people talking, laughing, and enjoying themselves.

Our waiter was attentive, dinner started with fresh homemade baked bread and churned butter. Everything looked handpicked, fresh that day, and every dish was outstanding. My wife’s seafood fra diavolo was the best she’s ever had, my kids devoured their pasta, and my spaghetti and meatballs were so good I had to admit (sorry Mom in heaven), even though I'd get slapped for saying, they were the best I’ve ever tasted.

The chef even came out to greet guests.. a rare and special touch. I’ll be stopping here every trip into the City, and I can’t wait to dive deeper and deeper into the extensive and authentic menu. Truly amazing!“

“We finally made it to this Gem 💎 Italian restaurant. The authentic Italian food was a true delight Rich in flavor. Special thank you to Nicholas, who made our first experience top-notch, attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable service.  TyJason Michael for the great recommendation. “

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“I took my family to la riserva last week. We had an amazing dinner. My girls loved the pasta fagioli!!! They also enjoyed their meals; pasta with marinara and the chicken parmigiana with green beans. My husband and I equally enjoyed our meals. The service was great. Our waitress was knowledgeable and everything came out in a timely manner. I will definitely recommend la riserva to my friends.“

“Phenomenal from start to finish!! We were lucky to have the place to ourselves for an early dinner. Dani, co-owner & chef, greeted us with a warm welcome. You could tell right away she had a genuine interest in making our experience special. We started out with a creamy, simple burrata that came with homemade focaccia. The bread was SO perfect. We each had salmon with Israeli couscous and broccolini. The salmon was cooked to perfection and paired nicely with the wine suggested by Dani. Then dessert…it was so difficult to pick just one!!! So we got three! Ana, the other owner, is the evil genius behind the to die for desserts!! Tiramisu, mascarpone cheesecake (we took it to go) and an apple cider donut with vanilla ice cream. (The donut was so absolutely divine that my boyfriend ordered a second serving!!) And can I just say the cappuccinos were on point! My mouth is watering just thinking about it all again! I hope others visit and enjoy the fabulous food, service and atmosphere at Mambo. We don’t live around the corner, but will definitely make the drive back because the whole experience was just that good. I wish Dani and Ana much success. You can tell it is a true labor of love for them. Cin-cin ladies!“

“Chef Sergio and his staff are warm and welcoming! The food reflects his love of serving authentic dishes. The ingredients were top quality and the taste was flavorful. Every dish at this tasting was perfect and represented the menu perfectly. The artichoke was pure bliss, hand made parpadelle magic, branding delicious and so much more!

“Outstanding food at this cozy, rustic restaurant in Mamaroneck! Wide choices in every category. Everything is impeccably fresh, and beautifully presented by chef-owner Andrea!“

“My husband and I went for dinner. We had a reservation and was greeted by the hostess, Madeline, who sat us right away. She was such a delight. She checked on us during dinner to make sure everything was going well. The chef also came to say hello and to make sure everything was to our liking. It totally was!! We ordered too much food because it was hard to decide on one thing. Shrimp cocktail and calamari appetizers. So good! Each was more than enough for two people! We ordered dinner from the 'specials' menu. Hubby had the 12oz grilled ribeye... and couldn't eat it all. I ordered the beef short ribs...sooo tender! Everything was delicious, including the drinks! The servers were awesome and very attentive! We'll definitely be back!!“

“Went for my daughters 30th birthday We had a table outside for 12 people Staff and the owner Dean went out of their way to accommodate us Everyone enjoyed their food The staff and Dean are very friendly Having the waitress sing Happy birthday with her beautiful Voice was extra special“

“Was there last night. Vlad is awesome. His Martinis are excellent and his service is top notch. Had the ravioli which was amazing. Will definitely be back.“

“My experience at Allegria Ristorante involved attentive, courteous and friendly waitstaff, a clean and well designed environment, and food that was superb. My friend and I both had the minestrone soup and the fennel salad with shrimp, expertly prepared and perfectly seasoned. Capping off our experience, our reservation was intentionally set for 6:30 PM - in August 2024, Saturday dnnertime entertainment is jazz standards in chord melody form expertly played by Raphael Silverman on a gorgeous Gibson Johnny Smith archtop guitar through a Henrikson Bud Six amp. Nice clean tone comes through very well in this setting .“

“Friendly owner/manager and great service“

“Benny was flaunting his massive balls on my plate of egg plant parm. Definently would c** back if given the oppurtunity.“

“This location i have come to a few times. It has progressively become better and better.
The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and quite, while there is a great social bar, with very nice accomodationimg staff and the downtown has become much better than it use to be that this hotel is right within.

Only downside I've experienced is the up charge fee for late checkout. Normally around the world a late checkout there is not a secondary charge of you request up till 1-2pm. Unfortunately this hotel is going with the US trend of charging consumers for needing a later checkout even if you checking at 11pm bc of late travel etc.. Only down on have to say, but hotel it top notch“

“Beautiful restaurant! Food very good except for one time. Service also usually good except for one time. Reasonably priced as well. I've been there 4 times & plan to be going back soon!“

“The pizza was great and the service was friendly!“

“My good friend and myself stumbled into Dolce Vita not too long ago when it was the only restaurant in Nyack that was opened very late. We struck gold. We have been back several times and the food, the service, the owner, the atmosphere are the very best . All are wonderful.“

“Great service and incredibly tasty food !!!!! If you haven’t been you’re missing out!!!!💯 Food and service was outstanding, thank you for an enjoyable afternoon 😊“

“We love this place! We started going to Antoninos years ago so we were hesitant to try it just being a creature of habit. And just like Antoninos,Alessias DID NOT disappoint! Our server Marco and Host Melissa are always top notch, so welcoming and friendly! The food is beyond amazing 🤩“

“Good Pizza Great service Good Beer“

“We chose Risotto to celebrate our anniversary, confident the food and service would be top-notch—and it didn’t disappoint! The surprise highlight? A beautifully presented complimentary dessert from the owner that made the evening truly memorable. If only we lived closer—we’d be regulars! Until then, it’s a must-stop every time we’re in town.“

“My wife and I were there for a political function combo meeting and Christmas luncheon. This establishment is super clean, bright, and cozy. The food and wine were delicious. I had chicken parm. Was fantastic. Was batted down thin and breaded and seasoned to perfection. VERY tender, I only had to use my folk to cut. The marinara was fresh semi chunky lite delicious and perfect. The fresh bread came in handy to clean up my plate. My wife has a fresh pasta marinara dish and NO complaints there. The waiter and waitress were professional, non obtrusive, thoughtful and caring about their service to us. Thank you iL Portico for having us and making us feel welcomed! Merry Christmas!
