50 Best Italian Restaurants near Irvington

“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.“

“Great service and legit delicious food. MUST EAT HERE!!!“

“First met Danny & his family at their restaurant in Upper Nyack, Casa del Mare. It was our hometown favorite & sad when they closed. THEN we found him here, in Irvington! No place better for pizza, garlic knots & many other favorites. They treat you like family & are always happy to see their Rockland families. It’s worth the trip over the TZ Bridge!! Go & see for yourself! 5 stars for sure!!“

“You probably wanna order take out or delivery, but I ate inside anyway. It’s warm and friendly and Tony, the owner and his chef are amazing gentlemen. The food is five star, if there’s any such thing for a spot like this. I got half house special and half pepperoni. One word = DELICIOSO!!!!!!! New York/Irvington/Tarrytowne’s finest. You WILL NOT be disappointed ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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.“

“Excellent! Food was so fresh and fabulous and so was the service. Pizza crust was delicious and light. Everyone was so very nice and accommodating. Great atmosphere and concept of Pizza by the foot. So good that weekends are packed, so make a reservation or try a weeknight. You will not be disappointed!“

“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.“

“Wonderful food. Wonderful service!“

“Go for the reviews - leave shaking your head saying “those reviews were on-point”. The only annoying part, and not worth deducting even 1/4 of a star, is the pushy “ we need your entire order right away because everything is made to order” jargon. They do it to speed you along as you can’t get your apps until you order your main meal. But even with that and not having a reserved table ready on time - this place is 100% worthy of ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!“

“We had a wonderful meal there - all four entrees were excellent, the service was perfect, and the price is very reasonable. I wasn't expecting such a tasty meal!“

“I would’ve gave them more stories, but this is the max they allow the service. Here was amazing. The waiters amazing the host amazing person and the food completely delicious. I recommend anybody who’s in town driving around or even wants to make a trip to this place. You won’t regret“

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“the food is so amazing. this place never disappoints.“

“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.“

“Excellent place to have a party! Eddie and his staff were amazing!! Can't wait to have another celebration there again 😊“

“By far the best new restaurant in Mamaroneck in years! great food and service.“

“Simply Great“

“loved service and food expectacular“

“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!“

“Incredible. The warmly furnished dining room of Osteria Sardenga was immediately welcoming, and the service only enhanced that feeling, never rushing or interrupting the dinner. But more than the service or atmosphere, the food was the true star, and the meal I had tonight was one of the best I have had in months.
For appetizers I tried the meatballs(juicy and flavorful with a pecorino accented tomato sauce), the Sardinian flatbread(crisp and cracker like covered with cheese and peppery herbs), and the Artichokes which were the best thing I ate that night. Tender and sweet poached insides, contrasted with a crisp and nutty fried outside, and drenched in a lemony sauce; If you order nothing else, order the artichokes.
For my main I had a pasta dish called Malloreddus, which I later learned refered to the small shell like pasta shape and not the rich beef ragu that coated it. And the pasta was the star of the dish, each pleasantly chewy shell scooping up generous amounts of meaty ragu.
As for desserts, I was able to try the chocolate cake(decadent), the tartufo(baseball sized with a generous snappy chocolate shell that melted in the mouth), the pistachio cheesecake(a unique and delicious version that had three layers, one of cake, one that was creamy and white, and a pistachio layer with little crumbles of pistachio in it), and the tiramisu which was maybe the best rendition of tiramisu I had ever tasted. And I'm sure, as the owner said when he slipped the dessert menu in front of us, that there were no bad desserts on the menu. In fact, at this point I would be surprised if a single dish on the menu, or on the extensive specials menu, wasn't good. I will definitely be coming back.

Some small critiques at the end, although my mom won't stop talking about how good the meatballs were, having only two felt a little sad. And my pasta dish was a touch too salty. I wouldn't want this to scare anyone away from ordering either dish though, as both were still excellent.
Also there's a small parking lot in the back.“

“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!“

“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 🤩“

“service was excellent, Food was delicious and the atmosphere was relaxing“

“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“

“I order pretty frequently from Dom’s in Nanuet since I work nearby. Yesterday, when we got our order to Sloatsburg, there was an omission in the order ( we really should have checked before we left). As always, Dom’s went above and beyond to make this right. They drove my order to Sloatsburg and included several delicious extras! Their catering always makes our events delicious, but yesterday they made it extra delicious. Dom’s has amazing food and even better service.“

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

“Very family oriented and wonderful owners thank you“

“My wife and I have been there 4 times in a row and each time have had a fantastic experience! The food , drinks, service , and the staff are excellent. It’s a very affordable place to Dine out. We highly recommend this restaurant! It really is a hidden Gem in New City. Go and invite your friends, you will all be pleasantly surprised!!! Reservation is definitely recommended…it get busy! Enjoyyyy😎“

“Great food and service. Highly recommend.“

“Great atmosphere, organized party, excellent service and staff, amazing food, very relaxed party planning that led to a stress-free gathering of 80 people. Spacious, modern party room with nice furniture, lighting, and air conditioning. Highly recommend throwing a party here! Thank you Tesoro’s, you were awesome!“

“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.“

“Best Ravioli ever! Especially when just made vs frozen. Creamy insides drive my kids crazy, so we have to get them midweek for dinner.“

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!“

“I have patronized Angelina's for many years. We have had luncheons and retirement dinners over the years. The food and service is outstanding! Louis and his staff are a pleasure to work with! Thanks!“

“BEEN COMING HERE FOR 25-30 YRS, NEVER A BAD MEAL, BAD SERVICE, EXCEL IN EVERYTHING !!“

“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.“

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

“I loved the ambience. Music was great too. I ordered Clams Casino and was very disappointed. Tasted dirty and had no toppings; no bread crumbs and no bacon. You can tell they did not put much effort into the clams. Husband ordered Shrimp cocktail, though they were not bad, we’ve had much better. They were unappetizing. After we finished our appetizers, we so as I’m writing this review and asked our waiter twice for our food, they keep saying they are very busy; not cool. Not inclined to come back and wait 30 minutes after appetizers for my dinner. Still waiting…Valentine’s Day has been ruined for us.
I have to edit this review because of the excellent response the manager or maître d’ Kensey had when he found out our disappointment. He immediately came to our table and asked us what we were disappointed with and how he can fix it. He offered another dinner and it was cooked immediately. He came back with a Filet Mignon with mushrooms, potatoes and vegetables. They also comped our Lamb Chops dinner and our drinks. Thank you for your excellent customer care! We will visit again on a day they’re not so overwhelmed with business. BTW loved the free Valet Parking!“

“Wonderful experience, beginning to end, with the star of the show being the excellent and tasty food. We each had something different, didn’t wait long for the meal, and it was excellent all round. I had the Chicken Fontanella and the mashed potatoes and it was exquisite. Thanks for the wonderful lunch.“
