25 Best Italian Restaurants near Sylvania

“First Italian restaurant I have been to since I have been here. This place is awesome. Nicole took care of me and she was awesome. Best service I have had since I have been Ohio. Food was excellent. The couple playing live music, were fun and sounded great. I loved everything about this place.“

“Service n food was outstanding“

“Very cozy atmosphere. Interesting & diverse menu. Love everything from their freshly made soups to salads to pizza to pasta to stromboli!! If you just want appetizers & a glass of wine you have LOTZ of unique options!! Good wait staff. Nice neighborhood dining spot.“

“The food here is always fantastic but the new expansion just elevated our experience. Stellar service by Anika and one of the new owners stopped by to chat. Bonus: everything was toddler approved! Will be making this one of our regular spots.“

“A few years ago I won a gift card to Piada Italian Street Food. Honestly, I had never even heard of the place until I won the gift card! I finally remembered to use it while I was in Toledo. I ordered online, and my food was ready when I arrived, which made pickup quick and easy.

Since it was my first visit, I also got a free Parmesan Piada Stick, which was a nice bonus! I ordered a Classic Caesar Salad with Chicken Fritte and the Marinara Pasta with rigatoni noodles.

The Caesar salad was fresh and delicious, and the Chicken Fritte was a great addition. The marinara pasta had good flavor, although a few of the rigatoni noodles were a little undercooked. Overall, it was a good first experience, and I'd definitely stop back to try more of the menu! Oh, and I can't forget the Summer Fresca drink. It was refreshing and a perfect addition to the meal!“

“My wife and I went there for our anniversary. Little bit of a wait for the food but we expected it out of a smaller kitchen and one chef. But boy was it worth it. It’s not listed below to select but, I had the Butchers Ragu and it was fantastic.“

“I came with my 84 year old mom in a wheelchair. Not only were they on it opening the doors for me to get in and to leave. They even comp the appetizer and drink meal that we got there just because. Service was also outstanding. Thanks Beth!“

“It was my first time to visit. I was hoping for a patio table and one was available. My Server, Sheldon, recommended a splendid wine to pair with dinner. The ambiance was perfect, my dinner superb and service was excellent. An excellent dinner venue for so many reasons.“

“Have been going here for along time. First time ordering pizza though. I ordered extra sauce which I did not get and only ate a few slices. I asked to get extra sauce to take home and the waitress said it would cost $2.00 more. But she wasn’t sure. We had to ask again about the sauce after we paid the bill. She said they would not give us extra sauce!! Hmmm!! Really? So for all you that like extra sauce on your pizza… they don’t do that! Also, the waitress never took any of our dirty dishes away.“

“Excellent hummus and lemon chicken soup. I bounce back and forth between the shawarma and tawook, but they are both great!“

“I’d say "try at your own risk." Our first visit today was a bit of a letdown. We were seated at a very cramped table despite plenty of booths being open and only a party of two got them. ​As for the food : ​Chicken Flatbread: Good flavor, but the bacon was too hard to eat. ​Chicken Alfredo: Very dry and lacked seasoning. ​Spaghetti w/ Alfredo: My daughter found her meal way too greasy to enjoy. ​Shrimp Al Forno: Very poor value—only 3 shrimp in the whole serving. ​It wasn't a "terrible" experience, but we definitely won't be rushing back.“

“My boyfriend and I celebrated my birthday at Mancy's for dinner last night, and it was a seamless experience from beginning to end. I made a reservation online as it was a Friday night, and we were seated immediately upon arrival. We had the meatballs with ricotta and marinara as an appetizer, I had the lasagna pinwheels for my entree while Chris chose the diavolo, and we shared an affogato for dessert. All of our food arrived fresh and in a timely manner despite the busyness of the clearly popular restaurant on a Friday night before the holiday weekend.

We unanimously agreed that our server, Dina, provided us with the best service we've ever had (and we go out to eat quite a bit). While always remaining professional, Dina was also kind, attentive, and very intentional, even remembering our names and wishing me a happy birthday. She truly made our experience what it was. We were also taken care of by Brandon and Kim at different times, who were both awesome as well. We definitely will be back! :)“

“I have a gluten allergy and was so impressed with staff and the service. They knew exactly how to handle it and it meant the world to me as someone new to managing an allergy. Along with the staff being professional and working hard, my food was handled with care and experience. I will be returning soon :)“

“Great presentation and toppings on the Greek Pizza! 10/10“

“This is my first time trying your veggie pizza and it is the best I’ve ever had. Thank you for the great experience and the awesome pizza“

“Pizza is ALWAYS delicious!! Staff is super friendly & helpful! Can never go wrong with a BBQ Chicken pizza 😉😍“

“I have eaten here twice and both times was really good. I don't live in the area but my son does so when I am in the Toledo area this is my go to for amazing bacon cheeseburger pizza and cheesy bread that comes with 3 dipping sauces at no extra charge. I have also tried their specialty bbq pizza and it to is so delicious. All good praises for this place. This last time I made my pizza a stuffed crust and it was fire. P.S. I opened the car door to check my pizza when I pulled in and to people in the driveway area was like man that smells amazing.“

“We had a Celebration of Life for my brother Jeff Fyock on Saturday July 27th. Everyone was so impressed with the event & how the girls we had kept me informed all evening. Growing up in South Toledo alot of our guests said that your pizza tasted like the old Gino's on Arlington Ave. This is my 3rd event that I've had @ Capers. Please give your staff a high five for helping my family make memories.“

“This is undoubtedly the best pizza I have ever had… I could seriously become addicted to this pie!“

“Perfect date night meal! Food was excellent and prices definitely reasonable. Service was good, and the time waiting for our meal was pleasantly spent watching the game and chatting. We will be back for sure!“

“hands down the best Gino's in the entire city. if you disagree, I can't trust your judgment on pretty much anything in existence“

“I can't speak for the food/order just yet but the person I spoke to on the phone - Doyle, was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. If I had a business and needed someone to answer customer calls - I would want to hire him! Hoping all goes well tomorrow with the order!!“

“Great food and decent service. They go a tad heavy on the sauce, so I might ask for light sauce next time but overall I love going inside with my family. Not many people go in and eat so its noce and chill and relaxing. The best tasting ginos today.“

“I highly recommend this location! My family & I order from here all the time, and we’ve never had a bad experience. Andrew, G, and one of the girl managers who usually works nights (I don’t know her name) are always friendly and provide excellent customer service.

Our orders are usually on the larger side, and everything is always handled with care. I order from this location quite often and usually my orders are spot on. On the rare occasion something is incorrect, they take care of it quickly and make things right. I actually have another pizza place less than 2 minutes from my house and still choose this location becuase the food is always fresh and I know what to expect every time.“

“Big menu.... Great food.... Great prices...And the GM is pretty sweet!!“
