17 Best Italian Restaurants near Newcastle

“Ate here for the first time tonight. Absolutely loved it and Brett our server did an amazing job! Will be coming back for sure.“

“Doni’s is a fantastic family-owned Italian restaurant that truly stands out! The food is absolutely excellent — every dish tastes homemade with love and authentic flavor. We’ve tried most of the dishes on the menu, and every single one has been outstanding. The garlic knots are perfectly baked and impossible to resist, and the pasta and meat dishes are divine — rich, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can really feel the pride and care that goes into every plate. A warm, welcoming atmosphere and incredible food make Doni’s a must-visit!“

“This is hands down the best location. They always have the cleanest restaurant. From the salad bar to the tables to the restrooms. They always have the best salad bar. The service is always friendly. If you plan on eating mazzios, I highly suggest this location.“

“Pizza ordered was completed wrong. Took a long time to bring out right pizza. Everyone else in the party was finished once correct pizza was brought out. Also, restaurant was not crowded, but 9 adults were crowded into a place for 8 people.“

“Had some delicious pizzas and great service during our most recent visit.

Frozen lemon pie desert for my appetizer 😉 followed by pizza. Mmmm.

Hand tossed crust was nice. Light and fluffy all the way to an easy to fold/chew or dip into ranch dressing “bone”.

We all tried house specials except for one standard cheese pizza lover!! No complaints and empty pie pans with only 4 slices to go when we were finished.

Mason took good care of us and we look forward to our next visit.“

“Great food. Nice atmosphere great service. The owner is very nice. Our first time eating there and will definitely go back.“

“Thank you for feeding our baseball team yesterday! The food was amazing and the service was outstanding.“

“Food was great--service needs improvement. Wasn't very thrilled to be told by the app that my food was ready then upon arrival, told the food wasn't even made and had to wait an additional 20 minutes on top of 27. I didn't fuss because that wouldn't do any good and I know the kitchen staff were doing what they could. Had the timeline been accurate, I would have no complaint.“

“Okay, Mazzio’s — y’all crushed it! This was seriously the best pizza I’ve had from there. I meant to take a pic, but I blinked and it was gone… that’s how good it was! 😂 You could literally taste the love in every bite. Shoutout to Grace, the shift lead — she was SO sweet and super helpful. Amazing customer service and even better pizza? Yes please. I’m already thinking about my next order. 🍕💯“

“Probably the best Mazzios buffet we have ever visited.
We were greated at the door and welcomed in.
This place was very clean and the smell of pizza filled the room.
The buffet was clean and fresh with a variety of offerings.
While dining, we were approached numerous times asking if we needed anything.
The food was great and the service was incredible.“

“hello. i have been coming to mazios since i was about 4 years old and its been amazing every time ive came. its a small clean and nice space also everyone who works there is super kind! i always order french fries and a large thin crust pepperoni pizza. its always good, and let me tell yall this… the claw machine is not rigged like the the other places. almost every time you play you win something and its super cheap!“
