50 Best Italian Restaurants near Greenville

“My husband and I split the pappardelle bolognese as a takeout meal. Even though it was takeout, we could not have been more impressed with the flavor, presentation, and quality. Some of the best food we’ve ever had! The bread and butter that came on the side was exquisite. Seriously, our best meal in Rhode Island! We are looking forward to returning to try more of the menu, we would recommend this to anyone! Can’t praise Giuseppe‘s enough!“

“I held a rehearsal dinner at Maria’s and I cannot say enough how great it was to plan with the help of Chris Spertini. He made the whole evening a success by guiding me with food choices and seating arrangement. Our server was excellent. She was extremely attentive to our guests. This will be my go-to restaurant. If you have not dined at Maria’s you are missing out.“

“Great atmosphere! And Christine our server was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. She checked on us consistently- thanks! I only got pics of our appetizers as we were hungry and chowed on our mani courses. Started with a 1930 DAQ, Wawtuhmelon and a Vino Rosso Gaio - all drinks were tasty! We started with the Truffle fries and the Crispy Duck Meatballs- oh my both were great! The flavor in the Duck meatballs was amazing! The sweet chili glaze just hits it out of the park! On to dinner I ordered the Steak Frites - excellent flavor and cooked perfect! Wife ordered the Chicken Picatta - very tasty with a great lemon flavor! Daughter ordered the Pink Vodka - also really flavorful with interesting noodles I had not had before. Thank you for a great experience- we shall be back! Thanks Chef Max!“

“Outstanding meal! There were 7 of us for a family gathering (we met in the middle for CT + MA family) and everything about our dinner was exceptional! The food, the wine, the calamari + dip, the bread, the olive oil + balsamic dip were all delicious, but the lobster ravioli and caramel gelato were to die for. Omg! Our server was perfect too. We will be back. Thank you!“

“A wonderful experience and the best Italian restaurant in Rhode Island“

“Been patronizing Angelo's for years (years & years) - it's my 'Go To' place in Providence for Italian. There are plenty of good Italian Restaurants but Angelo's treats you like family . My favorte server is Thera - always smiling - always friendly - and always flying around the resturant making sure everyone is happy. My recommendation - ask for her :-)“

“One of my favorite restaurants on “The Hill”. The dining experience at Massimo is always a 5 star experience. Yesterday afternoon we had Janelle as our server and she was superb- it made it a 5 star PLUS visit. Blood orange Cosmos, eggplant appetizer, chicken parm, pistachio cannoli, tiramisu- all excellent. Highly recommend“

“I have numerous food allergies, making going out to eat an anxiety filled experience for me. We found Cassarino's while looking for a safe place to eat while in Providence. I've struggled with finding an Italian restaurant I'm comfortable eating at for years! Our server, Morgan, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe while eating here! I would happily take the 45 minute drive down here to eat again.“

“The food was incredible the service was great it's BYOB was our 1st time we will come back“

“Wonderful Anniversary dinner! The server was professional and personable and the food was delicious! Nice atmosphere in the dining room.“

“Our dinner at Iannuccilli’s was absolutely exceptional! The food was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The service was superb—our waitress was attentive, kind, and genuinely personable. Nick Iannuccilli, the owner, took the time to visit our table, offering a warm and sincere welcome with a friendly chat. We highly recommend Iannuccilli’s Restaurant. The King is back! Thank you, Chef Nick!“

“This restaurant is awesome but if Cosa Nostra had any f****** balls whatsoever they would get a list of all the members of the temple of Satan/Set from facebook and start rounding them up like veal.“

“A group of 4 of us went last night for my husband’s birthday. We randomly found them online and figured we would give them a try because the menu looked unique with lots of different options. The atmosphere was intimate and cozy, the drinks were great, our server Cookie was great and the food was amazing! We will definitely be back.“

“The part of me that wants everyone to feel what it's like eat at your nonna's house where they think you are the greatest thing that ever happened, triumphed over the part of me that wants to keep this place a secret so there isn't a line out the door every day. Giovanna clearly knew what she thought each of us should eat but tried hard to not let it show "but, eat what you want...." She was excited in the way only a Napolitana can be when we chose her recommendations, osso bucco for Mike and lobster raviolo for me. It was amazing food wrapped in a childhood memory.“

“thank you for the complimentary limoncello and for Mathew's birthday dessert. the scallops and risotto were absolutely delicious and that roasted garlic was to die for. very well done. staff was pleasant as well.“

“I would like to share an experience I recently had at Christy’s liquors in Cranston. In a world where there is so many youths drinking underage it was great to see a group of young adults carded and refused alcohol at this liquor store. It was apparent to me that the staff are extremely cautious when selling alcohol. In addition, I am in a wheelchair and was so appreciative of the customer service and help I received getting to my car. The prices were great! I would highly recommend Christy’s to anyone.“

“Their Broiled Scrod is the most delicious I have ever had and the portions are generous! ❤️“

“BEEN DINING HERE SINCE THE 70,S..!!! GREAT FOOD, GREAT STAFF, ALWAYS THE BEST.!!! THANKS TOM .!!! MANY YEARS TO COME.. ! BE BLESSED.!! THOMAS...“

“Went there last Friday As usual everything was excellent We had the dinner special you cannot beat it for the price and the martiniAnd wine at $5 a glass It's a must try“

“Bella was fantastic! The food was delicious, and the portions were huge. Three of us ordered the vodka pasta, and everyone loved it.

The atmosphere was great, and the service was excellent. Our waiter, Joe, was attentive, friendly, and very helpful throughout our meal.

We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back!“

“went to 39 west oct 11,great food and great service.i highly recommend going“

“Exceptional service and incredible food—I'm especially fond of their pasta!“

“This place is absolute garbage. Food in never hot and if you ever walk by the open kitchen you’ll see how disgusting it is! Never again“

“The baked fish is delicious! My boyfriend loves the pasta with olive oil and seafood“

“I'd like to express my deepest gratitude to the staff at Roma for providing my grandfather, Bobo, and his friends - the last remaining Italian immigrants who grew up on the Hill - with a warm and welcoming space to share stories and reminisce about the old days. The kindness and hospitality shown by Roma's staff have turned every visit into a memorable experience. By embracing my grandfather and his friends as regulars, sharing in their coffee and memories, Roma's staff have demonstrated exceptional compassion and understanding. This kindness and acceptance will never be forgotten, and we're grateful for the special place Roma holds in our hearts.“

“Amedeo Restaurant & Lounge in Cranston is truly a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and top-notch service. A big shout-out to Isabella, who was absolutely outstanding—she was running around taking care of multiple tables, yet always kept a smile on her face. She made sure we were well taken care of the entire time, and it was clear she genuinely cares about her guests. Joe was equally fantastic, always ready to lend a hand and keeping a watchful eye to make sure everyone was happy. When Amedeo himself walked in, it was no surprise to see him being his usual professional and kind self, greeting guests and ensuring that the atmosphere was nothing short of perfect. The entire experience was warm, welcoming, and filled with positive energy. If you’re looking for a restaurant with amazing food, friendly staff, and a truly inviting atmosphere, look no further than Amedeo’s. Highly recommend—this place is a must-try! Thank you to Isabella, Joe, and Amedeo for making our night so special.“

“I was there doing utility work and I was offered a free lunch. These people are kind and their food is great.!“

“What do I recommend….Absolutely everything ! This is the Italian restaurant experience everyone should have. You’re treated like family. The food is absolutely delicious. Every dish that came to our table looked and tasted like the main ingredient is love. If you are fortunate enough to go when Mama’s stuffed squash flowers are on the specials menu, you better try them. Isabella our waitress was absolutely amazing. This place made me and my family feel like we were regulars. It’s that place. Just go. You’re gonna love it !! 💯❤️“

“Love it“

“We have never been disappointed with our dinners. Just like Grandma used to make!!!!“

“Sorrento is hands‑down the best authentic Italian food I’ve had since moving from Boston. The portions are huge, the flavors are truly authentic, and the staff makes you feel right at home. The restaurant is spotless, and the handmade mozzarella sticks (my long time favorite snack) are unbelievable. A North Providence gem — highly recommended.“

“Went to a baby shower and everything was lovely! I spilled my Italian dressing and someone cleaned it up quick. The food was delicious and the service was top notch. As someone who also works in food service, this place was wonderful. Down to earth staff who will have a meaningful conversation with you.“

“We stumbled across this place tonight without realizing it was entirely Vegan. We're not Vegan ourselves, but our daughter is, so we eat a lot of Vegan cuisine. I ordered a zucchini "steak" dish that sounded unique, and my hubby got the country "chicken." Both were extraordinary - the best meal either of us has had since we moved to RI (and we've had some great meals). The food was honestly bursting with flavor, and the quantity was just right. The service was perfect, too, attentive without being intrusive. We debated getting dessert, since the dinner flavor left such a satisfying taste behind, but we couldn't resist the gluten-free chocolate brownie. It came with raspberries on top and a trickle of raspberry sauce, in a combination that was again perfect - crispy edges, a gooey center, sweet and rich but not too much so, with the raspberry flavor offsetting the chocolate in a way I've never tasted in my entire not-particularly-young life. It was so, so good, and to my surprise, it blended well with the dinner flavors. I've been sitting here all evening enjoying the last remnants of the taste, reluctant to go brush my teeth, and I thought I should take a moment to leave a review on the various sites. We will absolutely be return customers, and we can't recommend this restaurant enough!“

“Just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who helped my mom this past Saturday night, if it weren't for everyones quick response I'm not sure if my mom would be home today making a full recovery. It's a blessing she was with my niece and at the right place for something like that to happen. Once she is back to herself and off restrictions I'm sure she will be back for dinner to Thank you all in person!! Very grateful! Thank you again!“

“Everything about the place“

“Se buon sangue non mente, sarà un Bar Eccezzionale. In Bocca al Lupo Vincenzo & Ciao Joe ;-)“

“Quite possibly the best meal I’ve ever had, in or outside of a restaurant. I had one of the specials, a Portuguese-style steak, which was cooked perfectly medium-rare. Juicy, smothered in a delectable sauce. The portion was incredible for the price. The service was perfectly paced, the staff were attentive and friendly. I will be coming back, and inviting everyone I can!“

“Great food!!! …you do need to invest in real Martini glasses!!!“

“Excellent food and staff!“

“Stopped in from out of town with no reservation and they quickly accommodated us with a most amazing dining experience. Daniela was an extraordinary server who while handling a large party was also able to keep check on us without any delays. Having true Italian foods that had such bold tastes made our trip more special. We would highly recommend Trattoria Romana as a must visit when you are in the New England area.“

“From the soup to the main entree the food was excellent, been 5 or 6 times and every time it was excellent. ***** 5 Stars *****“

“Every dish is delicious. I ordered Veal Picatta over Bowties..it was incredible. Their pizzas and Calzones are terrific too. I've never been disappointed with anything on the menu.“

“Just left. Only problem was deciding what to have…. I can’t believe what a great job these folks are doing here!! Top Notch Food, People, service and even the customers!! What a gem!!! Can’t wait to go back.“

“Great bar service and awesome food!“

“Best pizza in RI. The BEST“

“We went on a Sunday at 5p. The restaurant had a few dining parties, but not full. The atmosphere was very nice; a bit upscale, but not formal. It was not loud so you could hear the conversation at the table. The service was friendly and attentive, but not rushed. The food was absolutely delicious. We started with a shared appetizer of Fig and Prosciutto Flatbread which everyone enjoyed. I had the Lobster Ravioli which is what I get when it is available, so I have had this dish in a number of different restaurants. Pat's was the best that I have had. The restaurant has limited hours of operation, so I highly recommend making reservations so that you are sure to be seated. It is well worth it! Abbondanza!“

“Ever since I've been to the one atwells Ave few years back have been going back to have that Brooklyn pizza taste. I finally made it to the Cranston one and did not disappoint. Definitely need to try the pizza and other great items they have. Need to go more often when I can.“
