50 Best Italian Restaurants near Seaford

“Went in with a party of 10. 4 of us eat gluten free. The owner came over and explained everything we could have, which was a lot. They have gf pasta. And said that if we call ahead they will make custom meals like gluten free chicken parmigiana. Joe took our order and remembered everything perfectly. We will definitely be back!“

“What a great place to enjoy a delicious authentic Italian cuisine Friendly staff and very welcoming“

“Delicious food and excellent service. My husband and I had a lovely dinner and we didn’t feel rushed. We will definitely return.“

“I live down the block so I'm happy this is a quality pizza place. Their regular, square vodka and chicken bacon ranch slices are great and you get good value for your dollar. The chicken bacon ranch is the best i have ever had. I would have given this place 5 stars if they made the Buffalo chicken and bbq chicken slices like they do the chicken bacon ranch. Unfortunately, those are usually my go to slices but for some reason they take a very different approach than they do the chicken bacon ranch and it definitely doesn't work. I recommend giving this place a try especially if you live in the neighborhood.“

“Delicious!! Beautiful family !! Wonderful staff.. I highly recommend 😊“

“Im visiting family in May- will definitely stop by and try the pizza, and sausage & peppers. Can't wait!“

“We picked Rialto to try for a last minute dinner and had a great experience. A friendly and professional server brought our drinks quickly and made a great wine recommendation. We split the stuffed artichoke which was tasty and a perfect size so we were still able to enjoy our entrees. Husband got Osso Bucco over saffron risotto and I got shrimp and spinach rigatoni in a light tomato sauce. Both were delicious and I was surprised how many shrimp were included. I couldn't even finish them. Overall, we had a great night and look forward to a return visit.“

“Atlantic Pizzeria on Atlantic Ave in Freeport NY- It was my first time visiting this restaurant today and though I don’t normally write reviews, I felt compelled to state what a wonderful establishment! My daughter, who is very shy, spilled a drink in there and the workers replaced it immediately at no charge and cleaned it up right away! As a parent, this meant the world to me because I did not want her to feel uncomfortable.. thank you and we will be back! Please support!“

“The food here was absolutely outstanding! My mother and I visited, and we were both blown away. She had the four cheese ravioli with vodka sauce, and I had the pollo zingarella—both dishes were seasoned to perfection and tasted incredible. Even though it’s Italian cuisine, the food felt surprisingly light and fresh as we ate.

We travel often and consider ourselves serious food critics, and this place is hands-down the best Italian food we've ever had. In fact, it's now on our short list of the best meals we’ve enjoyed anywhere in the world!

The service was equally impressive—very personable and attentive. We even had the chance to chat with the owner, who was incredibly friendly and shared some great tips on how to make a high-quality Marsala sauce at home.

Highly, highly recommend coming here. I’ll be making trips to Long Island just to eat here again and try more of their menu!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Dining Experience
My daughter Victoria and I stopped by this Olive Garden at 1246 Old Country Road, and we had a wonderful experience. Our server, Ariana, was excellent—very attentive, friendly, and professional. The manager, Margarita, was also amazing and made sure everything was perfect.
The food was delicious and came out very fast, which we truly appreciated. We enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and the outstanding attention we received throughout our visit.
We definitely will be coming back. Highly recommended!“

This week we had our company Christmas party and everything was amazing, everyone loved it...Thank you to Mike and Stacey for all you do to always make it a wonderful experience. Highly recommend Mangia e Bevi“

“We had Thanksgiving dinner here with my two boys. The service was absolutely outstanding. Our waitress was amazing . The food was beyond what I expected. Well done!!!! The portions were beyond believable and believe it or not the take home portions were just as amazing as they were when first brought out. More than 5 stars. Excellent evening and the price was ridiculously resendable. Great job to all the cooks and the people that don't get the recognition they deserve in the preparation of this fantastic meal.“

“The owner is great, the bartenders are great, Kerry the manager is so kind and nice and accommodating. The food is delicious; there’s too much food there’s always at least two meals for each order the food that you make. The overall ambience is fun as the patrons that frequent this restaurant are regulars. There’s just a homey and fun tinge to this Bellmore Classic.“

“Hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner here and we are SO glad did - everything was perfect! Everyone could not get over how delicious all the food was. Danny worked with us to create a menu that was tailored to us and our guests and we got SO much food included in the package we did. He also worked with us to create table arrangements that worked best for our event. I was worried at first that the space only being partially private and not a true private room would be an issue but it was not at all! We really didn’t need it and were happy to still get to enjoy the Sinatra singer that plays for the restaurant that night. He even came over and sang for our party and had us dance which was not expected but a fun surprise that we loved! Overall we had a great event here and I am so happy we chose them to host it!“

“Want to thank the folks at Tre Scalini for helping me organize a funeral luncheon for my brother in law’s mom. They are not from the area and tasked us with finding a place near Pine Lawn. The team was easy to work with, accommodated all of the family’s allergies and was affordable. We can’t thank them enough! Highly recommend.“

“Franina's Restaurant, one of the premier Italian eateries on Long Island, offers consistently fresh, high-quality cuisine and attentive, friendly service. Their extensive Italian wine selection, housed in an impressive cellar, complements any meal. Customers are guaranteed satisfaction, no matter their order. The only potential drawback is the sometimes challenging parking situation.“

“Awesome food great friendly service one of our all time favorites“

“We had our daughter’s first birthday here and they knocked it out of the park. Anthony and John and the rest of the staff are awesome. Food was incredible. Highly recommended!“

“The atmosphere was great and food tasted yummy. Since it’s my first time here, I don’t really read the menu and the staff was very patient to explain everything to us, especially to remind us not to order too many since we’ve only got two people.
Strongly recommend the mussels😋“

“I had my son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Zona last night. I was originally booked to have the party on Saturday, but the bride came down with the flu. Gianna was so helpful and accommodating. She was able to change the date for me without hesitation. The day of the affair, the staff was so helpful in getting the room set up for us. Our waitress, Jodi, was absolutely incredible. She made sure that our guests had a fresh drink before they even realized their drink was empty. The food was delicious and plentiful. But most of all, the service that Jodi provided to us was outstanding. I would book another event at Zona without hesitation.“

“Absolutely the best! Treated us like family! Authentic as is it gets! 5 stars!“

“My wife and I recently hosted a baby shower for our daughter. To say the party was excellent wouldn’t be accurate. It was more than excellent. The food, the service, the staff could not have been better. All of the 55 guests raved about every aspect of the gathering. Many of these guests had never been to Bacaro before but now said they would definitely be coming back. If I had to come up with one negative… I couldn’t. Thanks for making a special day everything we could have hoped for.“

“The restaurant is so charming, and the service was excellent , excellent choice on food ! I'll definitely be back“

“Here for dinner with family for wifes birthday. Both food snd service were outstanding! Been meaning to get here awhile ago but finally did and well worth it! We definitely be back again.“

“Fun time with friends! Our waiter Puma was excellent!“

“Note of Appreciation: Luncheon Service Jan 8, 2025 Dear Sean B & Trento Staff, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the impeccable service and care your entire team provided during the recent funeral of my brother, Steven Blair. On what was undoubtedly a difficult day, your professionalism and attentiveness stood out, creating an environment that allowed our family to come together in remembrance and support. The timeliness of events, while never guaranteed, was handled with such grace and efficiency by your staff, which brought us immense comfort. I would especially like to commend Sean for the exceptional management of the logistics and preparation. The quality of the food and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and it sincerely exceeded our expectations. Your efforts contributed greatly to making a solemn occasion feel warm and inviting, allowing us to focus on celebrating Steven's life. Thank you once again for your unwavering commitment to excellence during such a challenging time. We are deeply appreciative of all that you have done. KMB“

“Best place to celebrate a birthday, yesterday we.celebrated to my wife with the people’ church and some friends, and it was great experience, the delicious food, the gourmet gastronomy, the service is the best, the kindness people and the excellence of the place was wonderful, highly recommended, it’s the favorite place to have a dinner with my family and friends“

“**update**

Sadly this restaurant is not the same anymore. The bread wasn’t fresh, was too thin and crunchy whereas it used to be soft and fluffy. The pappardelle bolognese is nowhere near what it used to be. The paninis aren’t pressed enough and have lost their delicious taste. The chicken francese was very salty. The dining experience is not cozy anymore, it’s awfully loud to the point you cannot have a conversation. I write this review in good faith in hopes it can be restored to its previous glory. Sadly I will not be coming back.

Please re-open soon! We miss this fantastic little restaurant.“

“EVERYTHING !! Best Italian food on Long Island“

“The food, service and staff is excellent. This is one of my families favorite restaurant to always go“

“If you like screaming a conversation while eating your dinner this is the place to go. Food was alright, not the best for the money spent. Service was okay, I don't know how you can have a waiter for a table of 15 also helping other tables.“

“BEST FOOD IN THE AREA!!!“

“My husband and I had Chicken franchese, Gnocchi sorrentino, Sides of caesar salad and penne ala vodka. Everything was delicious. Even the oil to dip the bread in was amazing. I loved everything! We can’t wait to go back and try the family style dinner.“

“Took the family to dinner and it was the first time for some family members eating there. They could not stop saying how great the food was and how nice the atmosphere was. We will definitely be going back. For anyone thinking about going to ZuZu's...I highly recommend going.“

“They always have great bands.“

“Great service. Great food. If you are looking for a great Italian mean, you can't do better than here. We had the Lingine with clam sauce and a fried calamari appetizer. The were superb.“

“Returned to celebrate our friends birthday. We had an amazing meal. Appetizers were baked clams , clams posillipo and mozzarella all crazy good. Veal parmigiana and veal Milanese both delicious and basically all the desserts !! Needless to say roll us out.
Forgot the softest fluffy Gnocchi with meat sauce on the side !! Don’t forget them !!“
