35 Best Italian Restaurants near Manotick

“Had my 50th bday party here, and it was everything I had hoped it would be. Sacha was super accommodating with our requests and the setting was just perfect for my 65 or so guests. The food was wonderful, the drinks were tasty, and the service delivered. I also was charged a very fair price. If you are looking for a classy yet modern vibe for your special event, I can wholeheartedly recommend Angelina.“

“I had been searching for the best pizza place in Ottawa for years. Mano really take pride in their work. The ingredients they use are all top quality. Even the dough, simply delicious.

I reheated some at home and it was as good as when I bought it the previous day. Cheese was superb and the sauce was perfect. How rare is that.

The only time I had good pizza was when I would drive to montreal. Now that I found this place, this will no longer be the case. To me, this is the best Ottawa Pizza.“

“We celebrated my mother's 85th birthday at Mr. B's last night and it was fantastic. The food was amazing, our server was amazing and really seemed to genuinely enjoy being there. The owner was very accommodating and attentive and came by several times. We will be back for sure.“

“Super nice service and very delicious food. The carbonara was a bit of a surprise for me, as I lived for a while in Italy, but never had a Carbonara with onions before,... but maybe it's a variaty of a specific Italian region 😅😎 which I haven't heard of 🤔 Overall : it's a five star experience with brilliant staff and atmosphere 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 👍🎉❤️“

“Hopefully will return one day 😢 best Italian restaurant Ottawa has had by far!“

“I stopped by for lunch today, with two of my new colleagues. From the moment we walked in the restaurant to the moment we left to return to our work of the day, we were treated to some amazing customer service. The food was delicious and well prepared. We had something diferent: Pizza with chicken. It was delicious. I highly recommend this place for the food, but mostly for the service.“

“Had a Italian Meat Panini....Pfft Forget about it.....Best sandwich I've had in years!!! Awesome...“

“We had a wonderful Anniversary Dinner last night, and will ABSOLUTELY return! Thank you for you attention and for a FANTASTIC meal. Thanks again“

“I visited recently with my extended family for my aunt’s celebration of life. The staff were amazingly considerate to our needs. My son and I have a number of anaphylactic allergies, which we made the staff aware of in advance. The staff were so kind as to point out which items would be safe for my son, and which to steer clear of. I then asked if they might be able to make me a dish that was no longer on their menu, and they obliged. It was just as delicious, if not better than I had remembered! 10/10 service, and 10/10+ food! We’ll be back soon, my son is still talking about the delicious Mac and cheese!“

“Had a wonderful time at the new Barrhaven location. Food was good, staff was friendly and overall it was a great experience.“

“Listen up Roy!! I never knew i could have such a positive dining experience. Our server, Des, was so kind and and helpful. Des has served us a few times at this restaurant and every single time the cheese is plentiful and the salads are unending. We truly felt the spirit of Mario himself. Thank you so much.“

“Such a little hidden gem. The food is good and there is something on the menu for everyone. We tried their Donair Sub And meatball sub which were both fantastic. Based on the marinara sauce and the meatball sub, I bet their spaghetti is really good. The owners are very lovely And the prices are fair.“

“The service was top-notch. The waiter was very respectful and nice.

The food was good overall, but unfortunately the poutine contained pieces of meat with a strong, overwhelming charcoal taste. There were also many black pieces which I had to separate from the rest of the poutine. You can see an example in the second image at the bottom left and pieces in the poutine.

Other than that, the food was great. I especially liked the regular fries.

Parking: Good size parking lot, there is an area that can be used as a drop-off if needed.

Kid-friendliness: They were friendly to children.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are no big obstacles inside the restaurant to wheelchairs, although it may be a bit tight getting through to the seating area.“

“One of the best meals I’ve ever had from East Side Mario’s!!
Fresh, tasty, and well made.
I know it’s a chain restaurant which is usually not my thing, but we gave it a shot.
Place was very busy.
They have new items on a menu, partner got a spicy chicken and pasta dish, really enjoyed it.
( I’m lactose intolerant and everything on the new menu was covered in cheese)
Big portions also.“

“Awesome sandwiches! Fast too!“

“Highly recommend this place.The original authentic taste of food.“

“I absolutely recommend Dalmoro’s Fresh Pasta To Go.. the freshest pasta that one can ever find in Toronto. their pesto is my all time favourite. Their housemade classic Tiramisu and Nutella Tiramisu deserves a special mention !!!“

“Fantastic First Visit – We’ll Be Back! We had a great first experience at this lovely Italian restaurant. The atmosphere was classy yet comfortable, and the food was excellent. We shared a tasty calamari appetizer, I had a huge gourmet personal pizza, and my husband enjoyed the shrimp linguine—everything was delicious. Despite a busy restaurant and patio, the two servers handled it all with speed and care. Service was attentive, and the prices were very reasonable for the generous portions. We’ll definitely be returning!“

“The cannolis dessert is so good except too little strawberries n berries. A little bit more will be perfect. The main courses so delicious! The chefs should be at Casino Lac Leamy.They lack Michelin star chefs at Lac Leamy. Cheers to the chefs at Caffe Italiano.👍👍👍“

“you have to try the prosciutto mushroom pasta.... omg... it is deliiiiicius !!! creamy... perfect! everybody loved their meals... Hidden gem in west Ottawa. Friendly service as well.“

“amazing food and very generous portions, and the prices are very good too!!“

“ordered pizzas for a party - they came exactly as scheduled...extra appreciation, however, goes to Allison? who realized that two identical orders came in and she took the time to phone me to verify if this was correct (which is was not - a computer glitch)....now THAT is great service!! Will use again!“

“Good food and nice atmosphere. This restaurant is one of our first choices for dining out. Thank you Maddi for your excellent service.“

“Friendly staff and great selection at fair prices. Everything we tried was delicious - would 100% recommend and go back again. My only wish would be to one day have a delivery option 😉 but that won’t stop us.“

“Was heading downtown to the Colonnade but the traffic was backed up at Woodroffe Avenue so decided to try the Carling location. Ended up being a very good decision. Italian salad and pizza as good, if not better, than downtown. Our server, Roman, was excellent. He provided great service and you can tell he enjoys what he does, many thanks. No more trips downtown!“

“Spent 15 minutes trying to reset my password and creating an account. Can’t reset my password and my phone number is tied to an account. Called 8 minutes ago to order 2 medium pizzas. I was told I could not get the special and pay for extra toppings. I gave up an ordered from somewhere else. Like c’mom. Gave you 4 stars because I didn’t want to mess up your rating but perhaps this can help you sort out what seems to me like issues that could make the experience better.“

“Huge thank you to Carling location Dominos Pizza for their generosity to us Queensway Carleton Hospital nurses on med/surg. We ordered today and was told that it was on the house! THEN was given a free lunch voucher because, and I quote, “we want to keep supporting front line staff and let you guys know how much we appreciate you”. SO KIND ♥️ thank you so so so much!“

“We've been loyal Pizza Pizza customers for a long time, especially at the Bank and Hunt Club location, and they consistently deliver! The pizza quality is always top-notch. This time, we ordered for both our immediate and extended family, and everyone absolutely loved it.

What makes Pizza Pizza even better are their ongoing special deals, which make their delicious pizza incredibly affordable. Plus, their rewards program is excellent, adding even more value. It's why we keep coming back!“

“Of all the "Gabriel's" pizza outlets in this part of South Ottawa, this one is the very best.

"Tony" and his team are friendly, helpful and they cook great food. The restaurant is always clean and well-heated or air-conditioned.

They make not only the best pizzas in the area (which are generously sized and well-topped), but also the breakfasts at this location are legendary for their quality and deliciousness. Breakfast sessions on the weekend are nearly always full to capacity - so arrive early, or arrive about noon.

Highly recommended venue!

Dietary restrictions: Can get orders with low-carbs, gluten-free, etc.

Parking: Good-sized lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kids welcome.“

“Exvellent pizza. Closest I found to Windsor style pizza in Ottawa since I moved here from Windsor, Ontario which is known for the best pizza in Canada. Glad I decided to try your place.“

“The staff goes above and beyond with their pleasant and attentive service. Beyond serving great pizza, this hidden gem offers an amazing menu that makes it worth visiting any time of day. The friendly team creates a welcoming atmosphere for every guest.“

“2 Medium pizzas(pepperoni lover's and grilled chicken rustico), cheesy pull apart bread, 16 chicken bites, cinnabons and 3 dippings sauces for $65... a fair price.The pepperoni lover's pizza was good, I find the pan crust to be too thick but my partner enjoys it more than the handmade crust.The grilled chicken rustico was really good, I recommend it with the handmade crust or even thin crust would be good, I'm guessing.Chicken bites were really good, they have many options to choice from. We went with salt and pepper and garlic parmesan both very delicious.The pull apart bread was really good too. I was expecting it to be heavy but it wasn't. Quite enjoyable.The cinnabons missed the mark. You can barely taste the cinnamon. The icing appears to be made with powder sugar, there wasn't much flavour. Can't recommend.“

“I stopped and took a small Greek pizza. Got it home and it was terrific. The crust and all toppings done perfect. Well done ?“

“I go to different Pizza Hut locations and this is the best location for service. Tonight I made a mistake on my order and the staff at the counter felt bad for me but as it was my fault, there wasn't much to do. The manager came by and asked what happened and together they made the situation better than right. Very nice staff.“

“Today we had large Excellent,Veggie Pizza with 3 extra toppings, + 3 Drinks under Combo Deal, at my request it was “well done” throughly enjoyed & wonderful service from Nitesh,Shraddha & Swayam ! Very sincere & dedicated to serve Excellent Pizza to Customer! Excellent Pizza enjoyed!👍“
