37 Best Italian Restaurants near Avondale

“Just face it most of the pizza in Pennsylvania is God awful. I am from New York so I know what I’m talking about. If you disagree with me it doesn’t matter because no matter what you are wrong. Bravo is ONE OF TWO places that I can honestly say the pizza is up to NY standards. The cheese is high quality
(Grande probably) and the pizza dough is spectacular. The guys behind the counter are so nice and bust their behinds so you can eat well. Show your appreciation for the good food and hard work Bravo provides. Love your pizza guys! Makes me feel like I’m home! Thanks so much!!

“Awesome as always ♥️ Awesome as Always 💚“

“Great food and atmosphere!!“

“Excellent food and wine!! Kind to identify which items could be made GF. Nice atmosphere. Best Chicken Marsala I’ve had in a long time. Quiet booth in the back. An enjoyable evening with my favorite person! Thank you @Cafe Napoli! All the best! —just passing through, but pleased“

“Great pizza with eggplant! As I was leaving I saw a display of arancini (rice balls filled with meat and cheese) which I added to my order. They were excellent, highly recommend them! I will ask Luigi to make a few more of these!!“

“The manager was extremely kind and helpful. We arrived very late and the kitchen was closed but he offered us a few pizza options and we were more than grateful!! Pizza was delicious and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. We can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu and really appreciate how customer friendly everyone was.“

“Gnocchi were delicious. Next time there I'm getting something with meatballs. Friend gave me a bite of her's and it was perfect.“

“Enjoyed the lunch special of half a sandwich with soup. The Milanese Panini was quite flavorful with generous portions of chicken, vegetables, provolone, and pesto. It is a bit messy to hold and eat - have your napkin ready. The wedding soup was fine and came out piping hot. Service was great.“

“We ate here during a glamping trip. We ordered a cheesesteak sandwich, eggplant parmesan hoagie and french fries. We were not expecting much because it looked like any other pizza joint but what we got was very good. It’s very hard to get a good eggplant parmesan anywhere these days but we took a chance. Usually it’s made with frozen breaded eggplant patties. Which doesn’t make sense because you already have the hoagie roll. This eggplant was not breaded. Don’t know if it was prepared ahead of time but honestly pretty darn good. The cheesesteak was very good. It was prepared fresh to order. The steak was tender. The bread for the hoagie was crisp and fresh. The cheese and sauce was of a good quality. The french fries were made to order and very crispy. The staff were friendly. The place was clean.“

“Excellent service and delicious food at reasonable price for the quality.“

“On the main drag of the city. We had a fine meal at Rocoo & Anna's. Staff is friendly, not too loud, nice old fashioned family restaurant. Bar at the back of the restaurant. Parking in the back. Half carafe of wine available. Bread basket comes with the meal. Veal was yummy. Simple pasta & red sauce also hit the spot.“

“Tonight’s visit was very nice. Our server made our meal enjoyable. Prompt, professional and she enjoyed our cheese jokes. Thank you for a wonderful dinner“

“Had a retirement dinner party at Brio last night. My experience planning with Christine, the Regional Sales Manager and with Miranda, one of the Managers at Brio was beyond my expectations. They were both a pleasure to work with. Miranda did a great job preparing the room and was available with her charming smile everytime we needed her! Our servers; Lawrence, Sofia and Erin were just as wonderful! Shoutout to Erin for helping me connect Smartview with the TV when we had a technical glich!! If you need to plan a party and need a private room for 50 people or less, with delish food, drinks that are not watered down, and great customer service, I highly recommend Brio!!“

“Was not our first visit. We started with the olive app and the beet salad. Both were very nice. Entrees were the veal roll up and spinach/barata risotto. Perfectly delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. We'll keep returning to this lovely gem.“

“A rare gem with a farm to table feel. This venue gave a perfect balance of modern and rustic decor with a staff of old school American hospitality and excellence. The owners at the Sovana must have taken great care in hiring, training, and maintaining their staff. Brendan, the manager, and Even, our server, took every available measure to ensure that our two person party was given a dining experience that would become one of our greatest. We came for the charcuterie boards and nothing was left to chance. Each component was fresh, proportionate, and expertly paired with just the right additions. The pickled carrots quickly my favorite. The number of cheese options was unmatched! I have had boards in and out of the country, but I’ve never come across a menu with so many options, cheese variations, and or customizable side boards. By the time we left, Brendan had welcomed us into the Sovana Family, Even had filled our bellies with a meal to cry over, and on the drive home my husband and I planned our next visit. This experience will become a recurring part of our self care.“

“I don't come here enough! The food was exceptional, and the specials list is always kept fresh! The wine list has something for everyone, even the most discerning oenophile! Formal setting is great for dates or business meeting, and service is always above part! Great experience all around!“

“Going to Tony's is always a wonderful experience. The owners and staff are amazingly warm and friendly. And of course, the food is mouth watering delicious; the very best around.“

“Took grandkids to 896 Pie today after a swim in the pool. Great service and amazing pizza. Brent is the owner and he was so friendly and engaged with his customers. All the grandkids and two adults enjoyed the perfectly cooked pizza. Thanks for a great visit“

“They have the freshest mozzarella and prosciutto I have had from a restaurant in awhile. The service was fast and friendly. The garlic bread is TO DIE FOR! You won’t be disappointed!“

“Have been going to the owner's restaurants for years now. I've always been pleased with the food. My favorite to get is the crab bisque soup with an Italian hoagie. My mouth is watering just thinking of it.“

“It was really good thanks!“

“A nice little pizza shop, I’m happy to have found today at work. They serve a crisp thin crust pizza that isn’t too heavy on the sauce or cheese, and therefore not overly greasy as well. (I know pizza is subjective but that’s exactly how I like it). I thought it was delicious and will likely try a sandwich next time. I’d love to see a chicken ceasar wrap on the menu someday, but there’s plenty of options there now. Very friendly people, and fair prices too. It appears to be take-out only, but there’s a few outdoor tables for nice weather. Ample parking, order from the kiosk inside, credit accepted/cash appreciated. Highly recommended.“

“Great place! Site of our first date, were back last night. Great experience at the bar, capped off by Patrick buying us dinner as an engagement gift. Thanks all, but especially Patrick!!“

“The gluten free pizza is delicious and safe for those with even the most gluten sensitivity! Highly recommend!“

“❤️Oh my goodness! We’ve always loved Casa Italia. Their food is delicious, and their staff are very friendly and courteous. They are our go-to restaurant for ordering pizza and more. So when I saw a FB post asking about pizza place recommendations of course I said Casa Italia! 🙌🏻 🍕 Then tonight we placed a pizza order and what a sweet gift! Surprise Cannolis! 🌸If you haven’t ordered from Casa Italia yet, you’re missing out! Not only is their menu fantastic, but they truly care about their customers. We love Casa Italia!“

“Ordered $150 worth of specialty pizzas and wings for the Eagles game and was absolutely disappointed with the lack of toppings that should have been on the pizzas. It was so bad I took it home and thought I got the wrong order. All the pizzas just tasted like bread and cheese....“

“Always been a fan for years, but only eat from here every so often cause of their prices compared to the many regular pizza shops around. I'm glad they became available thru GrubHub recently out here in Elkton! Sometimes the sizing of the Large size pizzas can be debatable which shouldn't be an issue at the pricing. Love Anthony's!“

“We’ve been coming here for years but this is the first time I’ve been compelled to leave a review. We dined in last night (11/30/24). Our food was delicious, but our waiter, Nathan, was THE BEST. It’s so hard to find good help anymore, and he was a gem! I hope he stays around for a while!“

“Delicious food! Enjoyable atmosphere and the staff were great!“

“Love the team at Pasquales Pizza in Cochranville! Michael and Peter and the staff are so personable. It's like coming home to a family dinner without having to cook or clean up. The taste of the ole-country is here! If you haven't grabbed a pizza, a cheese steak, a cannoli, from Pasquales, you are missing out on a quintessential Chester County dining experience. Every night doesn't need to be a black-tie affair. Grab your date, and a pizza, and enjoy the best in local casual dining & take-out. The online ordering works pretty well too! <3 Tracey & Drew Cope <3“

“Good food. Love the chopped chef salad.“

“One of the best cheesesteaks that I had in a while it’s really good bread nice warm and crispy the meat not dry and now chewy to and the onions still have some crisp to it I will say the 12 inch is quite big and the side of ranch dressing that I ask for pretty big but it wasn’t the best ranch that I had but over all pretty good“

“Best hoagies EVER“

“A little on the pricey side but all in all a good visit. Ordered the premade pizza (Chicken Alfredo/Cheese Steak). Not great. To be fair, it was end of night, regardless these should have been $1 slices on principle. Real Mozz Sticks, if you have read 1 of my many reviews this is a +. Marinara was tasty & had some seasoning. Cheeseburger Sub was heavy, toasted which was fine but the lettuce was ehhhh… The hot items were piping hot!!! The food was done in under 10 mins, the counter guy was good & … this is the first pizza place that gave me napkins. The little things count!!!“

“There aren’t many places to choose from where one may get and eat a Cobb salad in the dining room at 9 PM. This is one and it was good. The salad was large, fresh, and included generous portions of grilled chicken breast and gargonzola cheese. It really didn’t even need the salad dressing which was offered to me. I’m happy I stopped here and didn’t subject myself to the readily available disaster called fast food.“

“It was around 10:00 pm at night after a card show and my friend and I were hungry. We called to order even though they closed at 10:30 pm. They happily took our order and told us about 20 minutes. The food was hot and fresh, but it tasted like a frozen pizza you would just heat up but with more toppings. Overall it was good for what we needed. We also ordered the old bay wings and they were very good. Overall check this place out.“
