50 Best Italian Restaurants near Ridge

“Portion sizes have downsized for sure. $5.75 for 1 white slice seemed high. Asked for garlic knots over plain bread several times but no ONE Is listening. Take out orders need more attention. We are in full renovation and are relying on Alfredo's“

“We've been coming to Orto since it opened, and have brought family and friends several times. My husband proposed to me while we dined there four years ago and we recently went back to celebrate our anniversary. Every meal has been wonderful.“

“First time here. Made reservations. Table was ready. Bar is very small. Food was good. Service was excellent. Had the special flounder fillet with shrimp. It was good. Fish was ok. Rice balls were delicious. Restaurant is in a house. Very quaint.“

“My family bought me here for Mother’s Day and it most definitely did not disappoint.“

“Excelente comida y pizzas italianas 💥💥👍🏻👍🏻“

“The food here is great and the people are amazing. My husband and I had our wedding catered by CP Lamannos and I can’t even begin to tell you about the compliments we received. Michelle and her staff are the best!!! Please don’t take my word for it come down to the restaurant and try it for yourself.“

“Happened upon this restaurant while visiting Port Jefferson. And glad we did. Got here early enough that we could get a table right away. Steve took great care of us without being overbearing. We started off with the stuffed mushrooms, which were so freaking good. For main course my husband got the Chicken & Sausage Scarpiello, and I had the Veal Scallopini - both were delicious. We finished off sharing the Rainbow Cookie Cheesecake. This exceeded my expectations. Everything was so good that my husband wants to go back tomorrow!“

“BEST FOOD EVER, ALWAYS FRESH !!! FRENDLY STAFF . A MUST TRY!!“

“Love the food. Service and atmosphere.“

“I have loved everything I have eaten here. The only thing I am not a fan of is the pizza. Staff makes you feel like family. The dinning room is small yet spacious. Every time we eat there we end up talking to other tables. I drive quite a distance to eat here. If you go you have to try the baked clams. They only serve cherry stone clams. So so good.

Parking: Medium sized lot“

“This is my all time favorite place. Great for a quick bite or a sit down. I recently had a birthday dinner celebration here and not only did everyone absolutely love the food and atmosphere but the service was phenomenal as well. The owner is the nicest restaurant owner I have ever met. Every time my boyfriend and I dine there we say we just had the best meal of our lives. Then we go back again and it just keeps getting better. I am excited to continue living so I can keep eating their food.My top three entree picks:Penne Castello, Shrimp Fra Diavolo, and the Rigatoni alla VodkaAs an additional note: I am an Italian woman that's been eating Italian food my entire life... and this food is UP there.“

“Fantastic food , beautiful restaurant very friendly staff . will defiantly be back“

“6 of us had dinner ,don't understand why this place isn't packed each night. The food here is always fabulous. Had a lovely waitress and the food did not disappoint. Rice balls and sausage with cherry peppers as appetizers both excellent. Chicken franchise was tender and the side of spaghetti is usually a throw in but this place makes it special.

Parking: Plenty of parking.“

“I attended an event Friday night and this place blew me away on so many levels. The food was amazing, but the service was even better. Between Kaitlyn giving me a sample of one of the wines because I told her I was picky about wine and Zack accommodating an absolutely ridiculous request, they were all just amazing people. I’m autistic and I make some ridiculous requests sometimes, but Zack didn’t even bat an eye. I have pet rats and I saw that broccoli rabe was on the menu as a side, so I asked if I could take home like a single piece and he didn’t even blink, he just said to remind him before I left. I will definitely be patronizing them in the future“

“Great Italian restaurant in Rocky Point“

“This place is for the foodies! We dinned at the Patchogue Location on a Saturday 4pm and had the place to ourselves which was nice. We ordered The Sals fried chicken bowl with caesar salad, it was so good! we also ordered the mac & cheese and this was probably one of the best i’ve ever had, 10/10 must try. The parmesan truffle fries are perfectly crisp and delicious. The risotto balls were also very good! Our server Gianna R was so sweet and attentive. Highly recommended this place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️e“

A hearty commendation goes to the chefs, whose talent is evident in every dish. The quality of the food is undeniably excellent, with each ingredient reflecting unparalleled freshness.“

“Rocco's Pizza is a 5/5. I have been going there 10 years+. My eldest son was the first fan of the Buffalo chicken and Marsala pizza slices when we first moved to Patchogue. Now my youngest son also loves the Buffalo chicken slices. The atmosphere is friendly and the employees greet you with a smile! The prices are affordable and the food is delicious. I definitely recommend Rocco's of Patchogue!“

“Meatballs-tasted almost identical to when my Italian, childhood best friend’s grandma would slow simmer them ALL day long every Sunday!! The grilled chicken in the Greek salad was very moist and soft. Loved their 6 slice pizza too-great cheese and perfect amount of sauce that’s way less acidic than other local pizza, maybe partially because they use less sauce. Staff were very kind too. Highly recommend.“

“Best Sicilian slice around“

“Was out east today and stopped at Brezza for lunch. Pizza was very good and staff was friendly. found a new place to eat when in Wading River. Will be back for sure!“

“Italiano Pizza & Food Co. is not only super accessible due to the parking in back area for a quick pick up but it is a clean and easy to navigate space! I recently ordered a grandma chicken pie to go and stopped at Standard Rec for a Peaches and Herb while I waited ??anywho, I enjoyed my drink and picked up the pizza to go and it was AMAZING! I don’t know how to describe it but my family was also so happy and my brother (he’s very picky!) loved it! I am adding a pic and you should go there and try it! I would recommend Italiano for sure. “
