50 Best Italian Restaurants near Briarcliff Manor

“Excellent food and service“

“We took my husband and dad out for Father's Day looking for a wonderful time. With any holiday you know it's going to be busy and we anticipated some wait of course. Boy we were left more than disappointed with the overall experience with this restaurant. We had a reservation on the deck, but after being initially seated inside, my husband mentioned the outside status and we were gruffly seated to an outside table. The menu looked delish and we ordered some mimosas which the waiter said came with the specials. We got the drinks right away but had to flag down our waiter to place our breakfast order. Everyone around us got bread and olives and when I asked if we were getting it he said it just for lunch, but it was brunch! Everyone around us who came before us is getting their meals and we are just sitting there. We didn't get our food until over an hour later and mine and my dad's order was incorrect. When I got up to mention this and speak to the manager, to add insult to injury the manager can't show his face, he sends another waiter to talk to us. The waiter apologizes on his behalf and says that in order to make us happy we will be comped for my dad's and my meal. We say thank you and tell him we feel horrible he was to be put in this position. We get up to use the bathroom and get things going with the check and the waiter hands me the bill. The manager is standing right there. I see that there is a charge for the Mimosas. At this point I am really upset and I say "You said that they were included". The manager then rudely gets in my face and says "No, no, no. The drinks are Not included today". I tell him that the waiter told me so and he says no again. I then give him a piece of my mind of the whole experience and how it put a damper on the whole day. To this he curtly says " We are busy today miss, good day". This place has the potential to be excellent with the right manager and staff. To be disrespectful this way and then on Father's Day to boot was downright awful. Be a man and own up to making a mistake, don't send another employee to make things right.“

“The food was very good. Everything was fresh and had great flavor. Wide selection of options so good for families. The service was not good. It took forever to get menus (we had to ask eventually) and it was almost half hour before we got our drinks and placed our order. Even more odd, we never knew who our waiter was. Normally they introduce themselves but I felt like we ordered from two or three different people. The value and quality was great. The amount of food we got for the price was enough to feed more than our table of 5. This is good value spot for big families to get an affordable and quality dinner Overall, not a terrible experience and would try again. If the service had been on par, this would've been a 5 easily.“

“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!“

“We have been going to Bosfa Restaurant since it opened . The food is terrific. The seafood is so fresh. I can’t say enough about it. The service great. What more can I say.“

“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.“

“Mambo Italiano was such a great find...Awesome, authentic food. Everything is made from pastas to desserts. They also have a secret ingredient and warm and welcoming staff who clearly love what they do. Thank you.“

“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! Chef visited every table which is key! Service was very friendly and attentive. The interior space was beautiful and inviting. It's a must go to, thanks Chef and Westchester Foodies!“

“On December 12th my law office had their holiday luncheon at this wonderful restaurant. I also ordered a tray of meat lasagna for Christmas. If you have never had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant, I suggest you run - do not pass go - and get your butt there and eat the most delicous food on this planet. The chef created the meat lasagna - a simple dish - and elevated to something that just melts in your mouth with deliciousness. LOVE LOVE LOVE this restaurant!!“

“Delicious food and great service!“

“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“

“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.“

Really Beautiful Restaurant, with great staff! The owners love what they do and it shows! My favorite entre is the homemade squid pasta with seafood( get it in the garlic white sauce) Really great! They also have very good steaks for the carnivores out there for one or two people(no need to go into the city to a steakhouse when this restaurant is in the heart of Hartsdale NY, across from metro north! Benny makes the best drinks! They also have a "Really Good Happy Hour"! Whatever you choose you will not be disappointed!“

“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!

“Outstanding service and everything we ordered was excellent and delicious.“

“Spent a date night at Via Garibaldi, and it was absolutely lovely. We arrived around 6pm, and it wasn't busy, but by the time we left, the staff was busy with a full house.
We ordered a handful of dishes, with the lamb being the shining star. It was perfectly cooked, and served sizzling. My favorite, though, which caught me by surprise, was the bread. It was doughy, moist, and baked in the pizza oven. I could have sat all night eating just bread!
The service was on-point, and the atmosphere was classy but warm. We will be visiting again, and would 100% recommend!“

“I had an amazing experience at Sapori Restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish exceeded our expectations.

A special thank you to Zakaria, who truly made the night exceptional. His service was outstanding — attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. He made sure everything was perfect and added such a positive touch to the entire experience.

Highly recommend Sapori for both the incredible food and the top-tier service. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Absolutely delicious. Will be back!“

“We just came home from Sunday Brunch at Basso by PXK...the "Pots, Pans and Pasta" Brunch. Two hours, a dozen or more courses, one better than the other! Great food, great service. Peter Kelly dropped by each table to welcome us. So happy we went. Will be back for dinner...but it will be difficult to decide on one meal after such great variety.“

“Grazie di tutto! Twice, recently, I dined at I'l Fresco with friends and family members; The words they used to describe Il Fresco were: -Fabulous - dinner was scrumptious -Phenomenal restaurant and staff -Tastiest sauce in the world - delicious hot bread out of the oven. -An Exceptional dining experience. -Amazing homemade tiramisu - wonderful desserts -Best meal ever - better than the meals I had while visiting Sorrento, Italy. From my cousin who went back to Belfast, Northern Ireland: I am keen to get back to visit again and hopefully we can visit the fantastic restaurant again, can't remember the name otherwise it would be getting a 5 star from me. Frank, Henry, Marissimo, and the entire staff always go the extra mile to provide "5" plus Star service. Thank you also - to the wonderful chef and staff behind the scenes. Thanks for everything! Kindest wishes, Colleen“

“Always reliable, we've never had a bad meal here. Warm ambiance, servers and all staff are friendly and accommodating. The only drawback to this restaurant is the noise level; when the dining room is full it is very loud and hard to hear your dinner companions.“

“I have Celiac disease, and it's difficult to find a restaurant with good gluten free food. Pastina's is definitely the place to go for a great meal. Pastina's has a gluten free Chicken Marsala dish that is delicious. This restaurant also has other gluten free options which I've had, that are equally as delicious.“
