29 Best Italian Restaurants near Mechanicville

“I have been coming here for 25 years. My favorite is Antipasto and a Pepperoni Pizza, calzones. Always fresh, hot. Sometimes there is extra grease so make sure to have extra napkins. Owners are very nice and welcoming. There are a couple of booths to sit at. My order is always ready in 20 minutes. Always a good experience for me. Recommend.

Parking: The pizza shop is in a type of strip mall with a huge free parking lot. So plenty of spots.“

“Great happy hour spot. Don't arrive during happy hour for a dinner table without a reservation on a weekend night. High tops are seated for dinner guests only when guests finally are done with the long happy hour.

Drink specials at happy hour are worth the trip but someone has to wait in line at the door at 4:30 for high top seating. Meeting people at happy hour is easy because seating is close and you can hear everyone's chatter.

Well staffed. Good service. Catering takeout is easy and consistent.

Parking: EV charging for a fee.“

“Great apps, amazing entrees, decent wine list, and omg those desserts! Our waiter was awesome. We shared the garlic bread and calamari, we all loved both. I had the veal parm, so good. For dessert I had a pistachio ricotta pie that was out of this world. Highly recommend checking Anthony’s out asap. Great new space too, I had only been to the original restaurant. Love the addition of the salad bar too!“

“Being in the service industry for 15+ years, I will have to say that this place is top notch. The food was absolutely delicious. The timing of the apps and main course was perfect. My filet was cooked perfectly at a medium rare. The Utica greens are amazing!The service was phenomenal. Our server was on top of her game, making sure our drinks were never empty and checking in at the perfect times. We will be back for sure!“

“The BEST deli/sub shop in the area! Whether it’s cold cuts, homemade salads, subs, homemade hot dishes, Pellegrinos of Malta does the best and truly cares about the product they’re serving their customers. These hard working people just do it all right and in the best way! Look forward to going there every week.“

“Great menu....great food... courteous service....fair pricing...Great people! I've never been disappointed with my meal.“

“We love olive garden to start with, but this evening was amazing. We had a FANTASTIC server, Mo, who was the most personable and friendly person we have had in food service in a long time. He checked on us consistently, and made great recommendations. Honestly, every time he came by the table my partner and I commented on how nice and good at his job he was. Food was excellent as well. Overall, a wonderful casual date night!“

“From the moment I walked in, I could tell this restaurant was something special. The welcoming atmosphere was undeniable; even the other customers were eager to share their wonderful experiences and enthusiasm for the place. The menu was full of great options! The food; Every bite was delightful! Did I mention the espresso martini, made with fresh espresso!🫶🏻 The dessert menu was equally impressive—each option looked so tempting that deciding on just one was almost impossible. I ultimately chose the chocolate cake, and it was nothing short of divine—the best I’ve ever had. As for the staff, they were simply incredible: fun, energetic, attentive, and full of positive energy. My entire experience was unforgettable, and I can’t wait to go back!“

“So this was my first time here…we had a birthday celebration for my boss! About 13 people. Reservations were for 6:00pm. I came about 15 minutes late, and some people had drinks already. We waited for our waitress to return and it was almost 1/2hr. She took our second drink order, and seemed annoyed. The restaurant was very busy (which we were told by other servers) another 1/2hr pasted and finally she took our food orders. At this point, we were very hungry and disappointed-I guess our server had another big table.. So our salads were dropped off but another female server (who seemed very professional and much nicer than our original server) After that things seemed better. Food was good! I just thought about the customer service of the first waitress. She seemed like she didn’t want to be there. I work in customer service (which is very important especially for first impressions) would i recommend this restaurant yes, food was good. Service was not so great.“

“I usually order a white pizza with sausage, onions and roasted red peppers. I get a Gino's salad and on occasion a piece of cheesecake. All excellent choices, and I recommend them highly. Less than 30 minutes from call to pick up!“

“Delicious and HOT food!! The greens and beans and lasagna as delicious! We will be back!!!“

“Brooke's Pizza is an absolute must-try for anyone looking for delicious, authentic Italian cuisine. With their fresh, high-quality ingredients and mouthwatering menu items, Brooke's delivers an unparalleled dining experience that will leave you craving more.“

“Pleasantly surprised! Stopped in for slices to go, never had pizza from Caputos. Delicious! The shop was busy, the staff greeted us and despite how busy they were, took the time to wait on us and were genuinely appreciative. Will definitely visit again!“

“The pizza is some of the best in the capital district if you like a bit thicker crust. The wings were pretty dry and I was not a big fan of the peanut butter and jelly wings flavor. I wish there was a better seating area because it's not close to residential areas and the pizza won't survive a 10+ min drive home without getting mushy.

The picture is after the pizza had been out for 10-15 min so it's not the most flattering picture“

“My bestie recommended Clifton Park Pizza Shop and it did not disappoint 🥰 I ordered the Lasagna and it is hands down the best lasagna i have ever had! The sauce is so good. You can definitely understand why this small place is always so busy!! Highly recommend.“

“Great pizza with fresh ingredients and a nice crispy crust! The menu has a good variety, and the calzones are delicious. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. The only reason for four stars instead of five is that service can be a bit slow during busy hours.“

“Food was delicious and delivery was fast! Super impressed!“

“First time trying Napoli’s. We are new to the area from Long Island. The Margherita pie and meatballs were good. ( It’s hard to please a Downstater who’s Italian)!? The sauce was very good. We will definitely return. They were polite and efficient“

“I ordered the grilled chicken sub and the tomato slices were thicker than the chicken!!! Why would you think it’s ok to send this out?“

“My sister and I came for Sunday brunch. Our server Max was fantastic. The options for both food and beverages were impressive. Everything was prepared perfectly. This is the second time we've come for brunch and we will definitely be back.“

“The food has been solid for years now. If you order the pizza we'll done it gets a wonderful fresh bread like speckled crispy bottom. While unfortunately no longer availible daily, you can put in an order of chocolate cover cream puffs and they are absolutely fantastic.“

“I'm sorry to say that I didn't try Mick's sooner because I read some negative reviews, and I deeply regret it. I've ordered from them three times now and everything has been delicious. The prices are reasonable, especially once you see the portions (one piece of lasagna was three meals!), and they don't skimp on the toppings.“

“They have a new pizza maker he is very good and the pizza speaks for itself“
