16 Best Italian Restaurants in Oshawa

“It’s amazing food that comes in big portions for such a great price! Instantly found myself craving for more the next day“

“As usual the food is always fantastic! The only negatives were booking online, which really didn't do anything for wait times. It was pretty much whoever showed up first was helped first. Online booking didn't do anything. Also they seemed short staffed. Looking around there were plenty of open tables, some which needed to be cleaned and stayed that way for quite a while. Some of the waiting customers lost their patience and left. Another good thing was that the kids got free meals with our entree orders.“

“We had Amy as our server and she was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The food arrived quickly, everything was delicious, and the overall service was excellent. Amy went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience, and we really appreciated her warm personality and professionalism!“

“So took one bite of my pizza and was taken away, immediately took out my phone to ensure I had it ready for this review. It was just so tasty, the dough so light, everything I look for in a pizza. I will give myself some credit for ordering the best pie on the menu (in my humble opinion). The olive oil and bread before the food is also incredible, mainly the oil doing the lifting. Best Pie in the 'shwa-- I'd say! Will return!!“

“Hands down the best caesar salad I have ever tasted!“

“They were pleasant and very nice! They had my meals done within 15 minutes and when I got home they were amazing! Cooked the chicken tenders perfectly and the pizza and garlic fingers were on point! Thank you and would reference anyone to this location!“

“Have been ordering from there since they opened and have never been disappointed. Best pizza hands down“

“I ordered during a street festival that I was a vendor at - and not only did the Oshawa location call to give a heads up about the event, they even hand delivered it to my booth and then even followed up to ask how it was. The food was incredible and the customer service is unmatched. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back soon“

“We stopped in for a spontaneous lunch, not expecting much more than a quick bite—but our experience was elevated entirely thanks to our exceptional server, Jenn. From the moment we were seated, she struck the perfect balance of attentiveness and warmth. She was incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuine without ever being over the top.

What stood out most was how naturally she anticipated all our needs. From drink refills to thoughtful suggestions, she seemed to be one step ahead without hovering or interrupting our family time. It’s rare to encounter service that feels both effortless and deeply considerate, but she managed to create exactly that atmosphere.

She made what was a casual, last-minute lunch feel relaxed and comfortable, and we left with full hearts as well as full stomachs. A true professional who clearly cares about her guests—she’s the kind of person who makes you want to come back again.“

“This establishment offers a delightful selection of pizzas with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The crust is perfectly crispy, and the sauce has a wonderful balance of flavors. The service is friendly and efficient, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend trying their specialty pizzas for a unique and satisfying experience. Overall, a fantastic place to enjoy a delicious meal.“

“The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail of our dining experience was perfect. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside and delightfully chewy on the inside, providing the ideal foundation for the delicious toppings. The service was top-notch.“

“Ordered online on a Tuesday for pickup. Unfortunately, they had a $2 personal pan pizza special which attracted too many customers that were occupying the entire entrance in the store. All orders were delayed because of the overwhelming number of people walking in for the special. This special should be rethought and implemented differently.“
