21 Best Italian Restaurants in St. Catharines

“The atmosphere was calming, cozy and the staff welcomed us with smiles on their faces and all of them were very pleasant. The meal came in timely manner and presented well! We had spaghetti and lazagna and both were delicious. Our server Amanda was friendly, warm, and came to our table at least 6 times to check up on us if we needed antything else or to take our dishes away. Other staff members helped her and she helped other and to clear the tables they all helped each other and they were done fast and efficient. We would definitely go again. The dessert was sooooo good that it melted in our mouths.“

“For the first time ever, we ordered a takeout Thanksgiving Dinner for our group of 10. We decided to try Valentino's. We had ordered individual meals there before, but not a big meal like this because our Italian family is difficult to impress. The meal was exceptional. Everything was cooked just right and packaged in a way that was easy to serve. I will definitely order it again for other holiday meals.“

“The pizza and sandwiches at Pizza Pizza are absolutely delicious!

The pizza is always fresh, with a perfectly baked crust and generous toppings that make every bite flavorful and satisfying. The cheese melts just right, and the ingredients taste high quality.

Their sandwiches are just as impressive — warm, well-filled, and packed with flavor. The bread is soft yet slightly crispy, and everything tastes fresh and well-prepared.

If you're looking for tasty pizza and satisfying sandwiches, this is definitely a great choice!“

“Fantastic place to enjoy a delicious meal. Cafe Amore has now risen to the top of my list of favourite restaurants. The first time I was there it was a summer dinner outside. I experienced the Black and Blue pasta. Simply delectable. Last night we returned for an early Valentine’s Day dinner. This time I could not resist the Steak Gorgonzola. So incredibly decadent, so delicious. My wife had the Penne Alfredo with Lobster and Crab. Also a beautifully presented dish that was delicious. The Caesar salad is definitely worth the upgrade too. Cozy and warm dining experience with a great staff. We are looking forward to coming back soon. There’s just too many delicious options on that menu. See you soon!“

“Love this place and it's so convenient...Lots of parking, food is good and service is too.“

“I did not know Pizza Hut moved a few blocks down, found it. 😀 Mahadi was very nice taking my order, I just wanted a simple order and pizza for a low price under my budget. He made me a small pan dish pepperoni 🍕 with a bottle of Pepsi. I was happy with it, hot to bite in but still a good pizza. Pizza Hut for me is just a quick go to place for a pan dish. Haven’t had it in more than 25 years. So 4 ⭐️ from me out of 5.“

“This place doesn't get credit for how busy it is or that it's a fast food place. People rate harshly for miner issues. Obviously They have never worked in this environment. I get it, things get messed up, happens to every business. What sets this one apart is that they actually go out of their way to fix it! They forgot cheese on my breadsticks and send another order. This costs them money. They answered the phone, and were kind and helpful. Even wrote sorry on the box. In the end we got our breadsticks and they also offered a credit first.
For all this 5 stars. Food was hot, perfect and customer service was great! Thanks again!“
