28 Best Italian Restaurants near Johnson City

“My wife and I came into town to run some errands and found them through a quick ‘Italian restaurant’ google search. I’m so glad we did! The wait was estimated about 20-30minutes, but we were offered seats at the bar without any wait! To our surprise there was $5 spaghetti night and what a nice welcome to find an affordable meal! We got a Moscow mule, Diet Coke, and a double shot of Tito’s vodka. Our meals were spaghetti with a meatball, rigatoni Bolognese, and crab stuffed mushrooms. The meals both came with salad and house made Italian dressing (delicious!) and complimentary homemade bread. Everything was absolutely perfectly cooked and seasoned. The bartenders were both women, and extremely quick and attentive. We had such a great experience and loved the atmosphere. The bar is very old school wood, really made you feel at home. We will be returning, I’ve heard great things about their ‘Steak Tuesdays!’“

“Went to Rossis in JC last night and had the best turkey sub. It was so fresh and delicious...best sub I have had in a long time. The lady that made my sub deserves a high five!!!!“

“Hidden gem for sure; Id highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for excellent handmade NY style pizza, and their fried dough bites are unforgettable! The service is warm, friendly, and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back!“

“The pizza is so good here. I love the variety and the crust. Check out meatball parm pizza for starters. You can get slices and drink specials or order a whole pizza. Check out their menu for other options. This place also has seating as well.“

“the pizza is always delicious and the sauce is great and the owner and workers are very nice and polite“

“Among our very favorite place for food in the area. Really wish it were easier to get a reservation, but they did just recently open up for Tuesdays which is great, and they do offer carry out.“

“Amazing food and service ❤️“

“Fabulous food that makes you feel good! Avocado Bowl Is the Bomb, thumbs Up!“

“We couldn't be seated right away due to a large party so we sat in the lounge. While we waited the owner, Frank, came over and chatted with us for a while. When it came time to eat the food was incredible the wait staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was inherently romantic. It was raining that day, but next time we hope to dine on the patio out back.“

“Great authentic Italian restaurant- hidden gem!💎“

“The food is just simply amazing! The flavors are phenomenal. You can tell they take pride in their craft. You should definitely check them out.“

“I love this place. Amazing food. 100% would recommend to family and friends. Great service. Friendly staff.“

“Great meal and service. We arrived on a Friday about 5:30pm and got seated right away but there was a wait by 6pm. I'm guessing a bunch of people arrived close to 6pm trying to take advantage of the Happy Hour specials. The specials were pointed out by the great wait staff. We ordered a pizza and the chicken tenders and the food was seemed quickly and hot, both great. Service was very good.“

“Went to Tony's last evening for our anniversary. Staff was great but unfortunately the veal parm was tough and chewy. Definitely a sub-par quality.“

“We Love what’s on their menu . . . And no matter what you order it delicious and fairly priced. . . Endicott is known for its family owned Italian cuisine and The O.P. Is one of them with their own family recipes and items on their menu.“

“Everything was Excellent !!! Service !!! Food !!! My Compliments to the entire staff !!!“

“Great wings, locally owned by great people! Like the cheers of 2026. Try the wings they’re delicious.“

“so first of all don’t let that one ⭐️ review from 2 months ago stop you from going here! First of all we are not in Italy this is an old school Italian American corner. deli it’s as North side of endicott as you can get “little Italy 🇮🇹 .”
the woman working I think was one of the owners was very nice it was my birthday and was looking for tiramisu they did not have any but had a lot of other stuff I ended up getting Reggiano and some fettuccine for my birthday dinner, she directed me to another place up the street where I could find it.
as for other customers there was a cute husband and wife having lunch and her birthday was the day before, we had a but lovely banter about our birthdays.
if your looking for old school deli charm this little corner deli has it!
you can tell that years of love and hard work have gone in to this place.
the sad truth is during shut down a lot of these awesome mom and pops did not survive,
wich speaks volumes igor the ones that did during those trying times.
I don’t know if it is just me but I think they deserve all the credit!
as for not real Italian bred you can’t get more Italian American then Romas bread it is a house hold staple in most of endicott.
if you like near old Italian American Deli’s you should check this one out.“

“We came here to celebrate 2 birthdays! Ambiance was excellent! Friendly waitstaff! Food was exceptional - all delish! Grilled octopus, Tuna tartar tower, Fried asparagus, Orecchiette with spicy sausage and broccoli rabe! Yum! They gave us 2 warm cookies with ice cream in top, with flasher candles. Great experience.“

“The food was great. I had the five cheese ziti. The experience would have been better if me and my daughter were not put in a cubby with a loud large family. The main dining area would have been nicer and maybe our server would have had just as much time as our neighbors.“

“Met a close friend for dinner after work. The place was packed but worth the wait! Food was awesome and worth the price!“

“It's good pizza when its actually good. Sometimes it can be doughy. At times you can tell they are not cleaning the pizza oven they reheat in and the pizza will taste burnt or like another sauce from another pizza. The kids working there could be friendlier and not act like customers are bothering them when getting food. Makes me not want to go there.“

“This is the place to be for great food and Italian culture.“

“Consistently a favorite place to eat. I've introduced multiple coworkers to this place to help boost the business and I'm never disappointed. Great food, good cocktails, solid rare bottle selection for beers. Bar staff rolls with the punches and knows their stuff. Whenever I'm in town and have free time, I'll grab food here, and a par-baked pizza to-go for my freezer.“

“Love the bread, pastries, and pretty much everything they sell here. Pizza's are amazing, and the absolute best white chicken spiedie pizza ever made, is sold here!“

“Excellent food any time of the day or evening!“

“I got a half sheet 6/5/25 at 11am. One of the best chicken wing and half white broccoli pizzas from here to date. Whoever made it did the crust a little thicker and the entire pizza covered in toppings. I get pizza here a few times a month and the last 2x were great. My family goes to the vestal parkway nirchis and has been disappointed last couple times with there pizza. I tried there's and they definitely changed up the wings sauce 1 out of the last 2 wing pizzas. My family goes to Canada to visit family and always brings a couple sheets of wing pizza per there request. I always recommend Taft Aves. 👌“

“Always the best experience when in Binghamton.“
