29 Best Italian Restaurants near Hilton

“The food was excellent. Our fish was cooked correctly and did not taste fishy. My husband had the fish fry and I had the Cajun broiled haddock, also definitely get the fresh cut fries. The service was great, from hostess to waitresses to busier. The team work is evident, even (what I am assuming was the owner or general manager) helped out by delivering food, drinks and even clearing tables. Go check them out.“

“I need to make you aware of a wonderful diamond in the rough on Rochester’s west side. My wife and I visited this quaint Lower Manhattan style eatery with my brother-in-law and his wife. This unassuming place from the outside pleasantly surprises once you enter with its quaint bar area, blacked out ceiling and twin open kitchen stations. First litmus test is the quality of bread with a full complement of spices to prep your own dipping oil. Check! Special of the day, Seared Halibut on a bed of risotto, didn’t disappoint, nor did my samples of homemade Rigatoni à la Bolognese (just like Mom’s Sunday sauce) or the Chicken Milanese! Completed the meal with an ample slice of homemade Ricotta Cheesecake with Berry Compote. The owner checked in with us several times. The table service was perfect. The glass enclosed wine cellar in the middle of the dining area completed an impressive ambience and dining experience. Run don’t walk to this most pleasant gastro treat!“

“Ann was an exceptional waitress. We will definitely request her on our next visit. On point with great service.“

“Went there for the first time tonight, everything was excellent! I ordered the Filet and it was melt in your mouth delicious, I also had the crispy potatoes and they were yummy. My husband had the chicken prosciutto and he said that was very good but my steak was better. Service was great as well. Would highly recommend!.“

“Your food went way way down the way outside is so long it's ridiculous then the food is cold doesn't taste like it should taste you should get back to cook she had there when you opened the ones who came from fornataros. Got to go food for Thanksgiving no one touched it the the artichoke French looked like chicken nuggets terrible look like it was baked not sauteed the clams casino were as big as to Wegmans water bottle caps I took a picture was going to even send it to them but you know they don't do anything anyways we got 25 clams casino maybe a total of those clams were four clams that's all small they were nobody even ate them I'm going to be calling to take them back but someone said don't bother they don't care about their food coming out they think because they had a name that they were good you got to keep up that good food otherwise people stop coming“

“Highly reccomend. It was our first time bringing our kids here last night. Usually my husband and I go here for dinner alone. The owner and waitress were extremely kid friendly and attentive. The owner brought out crayons and coloring for the kids. Our waitress was very attentive and kept checking in with us. Food as always, outstanding. Love the family style salad and toasted bread with oil. Great meal, service and atmosphere! And kid friendly too!“

“Just an outstanding dinner. I recently moved to the west side of ROC and sniffed this place out for my wife and I to take our cherished friends to. Something about the menu and the vibe just told me that we should try it. Just, wow. Our friends live right on the west coast, and they said they've possibly never had better calamari. The table bread was great, almost like a sourdough ciabatta vibe. I got the short ribs, a dish I'm no stranger to, and they were phenomenal. Our party of four was extremely happy with the quality of food for the value, and would absolutely recommend.“

“They catered our 100 person baby shower and the food was amazing. The price was great and so easy to order. They let me know exactly what we needed and were so kind and helpful. 100% recommend!!!!“

“Best catering service I've ever experienced“

“it was good service was great“

“Absolutely one of best Italian restaurants ever frequented. Exceptional“

“great food, great people THANKS“

“Ordered delivery the other day and had the manicotti. It wasn’t what I ordered, but mistakes happen, especially with delivery service so no big deal. The food was phenomenal and I will DEFINITELY be dining there again.“

“Love dining or getting take out from Mangia Mangia! The food is always delicious, the service is great, and it is a reasonably priced meal! I love their sauce and their meatballs are so perfectly done. My family and I order the “Family Meal Bundles” for an easy weekday dinner. It’s always packaged so nice, warm and tastes delicious. It feeds us all and provides leftovers to enjoy again! Definitely one of our favorites!“

“Oriens Café is a rare find — a place where you can enjoy proper gelato and well-made cakes, which aren’t always easy to come by in the U.S., especially outside major cities.

They offer a wide selection of sweets, and it’s such a treat to have this level of quality available without needing to travel far. The fact that you can enjoy it all in a casual setting, alongside a full food menu, makes the experience even better.

While the prices may not be low, the quality absolutely justifies them — these desserts are on par with what you'd expect from a fine restaurant, but in a much more relaxed and accessible setting. I'm genuinely glad this place exists nearby.“

“SERIOUSLY?!?!
This place is close to where we live but just tonight we ordered pizza for a party for the first time! We're seriously kicking ourselves for not trying this place sooner. This pizza seriously blows away all competition. It's seriously delicious!!!
YOU SERIOUSLY MUST TRY IT!!!!“

“Food is excellent, Server was exceptional, wait time was a little too long for my likely and I'm a very patient person.
I would have given a 5 star review however our wait was just too long. We waited 45 mins after being told 20 minutes.
Had we not been celebrating a very important birthday or I personally would have left.
My only suggestion is to make a ghost kitchen for pick up orders and leave the restaurant kitchen to ones who actually want to dine in. In my opinion I'm sure this will help the wait and most likely the staff/cooks as well.“

“I had Ciaccia’s cater a work event today with Boxed lunches to make it easier for those traveling. Boxed lunches isn’t something they typically do, but when I asked if they could, they did not hesitate to say yes! All I can say is they KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK!! You could see the thought and time that was put into making these lunches and everyone was very impressed! Lots of compliments on the tastiness of the food and presentation of the boxes! Extremely happy as always with Ciaccia’s and their team! Highly recommend!!!!“

“Amazing seasoned to perfection! The best rice and beans! The jibarito plate is an explosion of flavors!“

“Highly recommend, went last night and the chicken French and veal parm was excellent!“

“Too expensive in the food's not as good as it used to be“

“Mama Napoli Foods is a family owned specialty producer of Authentic Arancini (stuffed rice balls). Mama Napoli Foods is the only place that offers gluten free arancini. They are primarily a wholesale operation but do have a small store front where you can purchase their products. They also offer catering for your events.“

“The Sicilian pizza is amazing! Best we ever had! The owner is authentic and brings a piece of Sicily here! A must try! Thank you for a slice of Heaven“

“At Spencerport Salvatore’s, you’ll find more than just pizza; it’s a culinary gem (try the plate!). The flavorful dishes, warm atmosphere, and top-notch service set it apart. Whether you’re a local or passing through, Salvatore’s in Spencerport is a must.“

“We didn’t get a pizza. Just went in to try out the Ice Cream Shoppe that sell Hersheys ice cream.

A lovely young lady named Kayelyn was very helpful as I sampled out a few flavours I hadn’t tried before.

The Salted Caramel Truffle was delicious and the kids portion size was humongous! I am ow experiencing a food coma.

My partner had the Chocolate Chip in Cake Cone and he loved it.

There is plenty of seating.

Lots of free parking is available“

“Always excellent!!!! A true gem in the neighborhood! Doesn’t get any better then this.“

“The pizza and hot subs are amazing here. The staff very friendly and nice. Specially the Andrew guy at the check-out. Andrew is the reason I'm writing a 5-star reveiw for djs:}“
