Italian Restaurants near Antioch

“It’s absolutely the best pizza in Southern Nashville and it’s cheaper than most commercial spots like Domino’s.“

“We had a lovely experience at Pelatos. Our entire party was gluten free. Although the gluten feee menu was limited, each course absolutely delicious and enjoyable. We had multiple servers with Danny taking lead - each equally attentive. Make your reservation - you won't regret it!“

“First time at the new location and thoroughly enjoyed it. The ambience is great and service was outstanding (Thank you Grant). We had the Frutti di Mare and Veal Saltimbocca and both were equally outstanding. Nice wine list as well. Dress business casual as most fine dining restaurants are, so best to avoid dressing overly casual (Swartz, flip-flops, tank tops, caps, etc).“

“probably the best Philly cheese steak I've ever had“

“We were in Nashville for a concert & found Little Hats online & decided to check it out because the reviews were so good. We were not disappointed at all! The customer service was phenomenal! The two beautiful ladies at the front were super friendly & helpful & very easy to talk to. The food was so good that we had to go back for more the next day to take back home to Indiana with us! The bolognese was some of the best pasta i’ve ever had! We found several things in the market area to take home & make for ourselves & the sandwiches we got for the cooler for our trek back home traveled well & were still delicious hours later. We are so glad we found Little Hats! Thank you for the awesome dining experience! 🖤“

“Went twice while in Nashville and both times were a delight. Great staff and the pizza was phenomenal!“

“The staff were very friendly and the food was amazing.“

“We had an incredible group dinner at Sinatra’s! From start to finish, the food and service were absolutely outstanding. As Nashville natives who have tried countless restaurants around town, Sinatra’s is hands down our #1 spot - whether for a full dinner or just cocktails. The live music is phenomenal, the vibe is top-tier, and the service is truly unmatched.

Nicholas was the first person to make our experience at Sinatra’s exceptional, and we’re so grateful - not only to visit him at our favorite restaurant, but to introduce so many of our friends to this amazing establishment as well.

Our group enjoyed the shrimp cocktail, chicken parmesan, meatballs, Caesar salads, and many other dishes - and everything was served perfectly.“

“Excellent food, wine and service. From our server to the guys working the kitchen, we had a blast and awesome meal at the pizza counter seats!!!“

“Friday night after a few drinks late night at some local bars and not wanting to drive far from our hotel, we ordered from here and LOVEDDDD it. Pizza was hot, fresh ingredients & we ate every single slice. To top it off they graciously added a 2 liter of sprite to our order that we didn't even order & let us use their restroom. That following Sat we decided to try something different on the menu & we still were more than happy. The small calzone was HUGE and full of ingredients but not too much. The cheesesteak hoagie was a great portion too. 4 people ate just those 2 things and we all we FULL! And again we were offered a free soda. We now all have this placed saved for our return to Nashville“

“I'm a New Yorker in Nashville. In this Neopolitan wood fired era, this is different. It takes time, but usually good things do.

And like a good New Yorker, I picked this ezzo pepperoni slice up to eat it. That is a skill, from me and the chef.“

“We had the best evening trying Iggy’s for the 1st time. Jenna our server was absolutely a delight. She helped us navigate the entire menu and everything she recommended was absolutely delicious. Everything came out perfectly. We hadn’t been out in a while and we were not rushed through our evening at all. Amazing atmosphere. Definitely will be back and I will tell everyone about this restaurant!“

“I went to Mangia last night for the first time, and it was beyond expectations! The environment and service were both 10/10, and the food was off the charts incredible. *of note: I have issues with gluten and 90% of the menu was already gluten free. The gf pasta and bread options were delicious, and I didn’t feel like the odd one out at any point (because I could eat the same dishes as everyone else with a slight modification)! The team really does make it feel like you’re at a family event. The dancing mid meal is super fun and makes finishing the rest of the meal easier lol! 12/10 ✨ and I am already thinking about when we can go back 🥰🤣“

“We’d worked hard and decided to try an Italian place we hadn’t tried before. We chose Salento Italia and what a good move! The service by Taylor was superb and the spaghetti with cauliflower was delish and my husband’s shrimp scampi was yummy too! Great place!!!“

“Upon arriving to Carrabba’s, my stomach was rumbling. This was my first tine using carry-out at this location . The food was ready, hot , packaged. A lovely gentleman Alex greeted me at the carry-out window. As we were going over my order, I noticed I made a mistake. Alex re-looked at my order to understand where the error was and quickly got helped to fix it. A lovely manager by the name of Patricia went over and correct my order. Great customer service!! I’m a Carrabba fan for life!!“

“We've been here several times and consistently have a good experience. Asked for some help picking out the charcuterie and it was great (hot honey goat cheese was my favorite). Old fashioned was good. We got several of the small plates to share and those with the hot honey was enough of a meal for the 2 of us. We've tried several of the pastas and entrees before and enjoyed those, just didn't have room this time. Usually busy at dinner time so I always try to set up a reservation. Will definitely be back.“

“We had dinner here tonight. Good ambiance and excellent service. We enjoyed the fettuccini, pesto and rigatoni. ♥️“

“Had a pasta and pizza and they were both amazing. We are from Australia and found it hard to find a good restaurant in the Marina bay sands area and this did not disappoint. 5 stars“

“Hands down the most delicious Italian food I’ve ever had. My husband and I came up from Georgia to celebrate our anniversary/Valentine’s Day, and we were welcomed with a hand-written card and impeccable service. We can’t wait to come back.“

“Dishes are VERY cheesy. That is endemic of Italian, but it could be toned down just a little. Every appetizer was delicious. The drinks were on par.
The service was awesome! We had a large group and the waiters were excellent. It has dark wood and seemed very popular.“

“This place is a rare find where EVERYTHING.. from the ambiance to the food is on point. The standout feature? They make their pasta from scratch, and you can absolutely taste the difference. The Chicken Parmesan is a must-try, with perfectly breaded buttermilk chicken that's tender and juicy, topped with their homemade marinara and melted mozzarella. The pasta that comes with it is, of course, made in-house and cooked to perfection. It's comfort food at its finest. Speaking of comfort food, their Mac and Cheese is hands down one of the best I've ever had. It's creamy, cheesy, and has just the right amount of crunch. You can tell it’s made with love, and the scratch-made pasta elevates it to a whole new level. And for those who crave a taste of Chicago, their Italian Beef Sandwich is a revelation. The beef is thinly sliced, piled high, and soaked in jus that’s packed with flavor. Paired with their house-made giardiniera, it’s the kind of sandwich that you’ll be dreaming about long after you’ve left. The atmosphere at Nicoletto's is cozy and inviting, with a warm, rustic vibe that makes you want to linger over your meal. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, eager to guide you through the menu or offer up a drink recommendation. In a city full of dining options, Nicoletto's stands out not just for its fresh, homemade pasta but for the love and care they put into every dish. Whether you're a pasta purist or someone who just loves good food, Nicoletto's is a place that deserves a top spot on your must-visit list. 😋“

“The food was so delicious. There were 17 of us and everyone enjoyed their dinner. staff were amazing. thank you for a lovely evening.“

“amazing food and service!“

“The quail tonight was phenomenal!“

“Fantastic LOCALLY owned restaurant a block off of Broadway! Do yourself a favor and stop by! Excellent drinks, service, ambience, and FOOD! Best steak I've ever had in my life. Definitely don't sleep on Villa Castrioti!“

“Have been looking for restaurant that has similar taste to what Italy has. We ordered the Marinated olives, bread and meat balls as appetizer, flat iron steaks and finished with tiramisu. Everything was delicious! The olives were so good that I bought a jar of them to bring home. Will be back!!!“

“North Italia was a hit for our Christmas meal. I did not want to spend half the day in the kitchen this year and wanted convenience and a great meal. I found the family pack to go meals while searching online and it’s a excellent deal. We chose the lagsagna family pack which included a large Ceasar salad, huge loaf of garlic bread, lasagna for 4 to 6 and tiramisu. We picked it up last night to heat and seve today. Bravo North Italia. This meal was absolutely delicious and there is plenty for 2 people to have for 3 nights. At the time of our purchase it was only $65.00 plus tax. We will do this again. Thanks again to the young lady that took my order and to the Manager Zane that called to confirm my order.“

“The stromboli and pasta were amazing. The service was fantadtic. We drove 45 minutes to eat there and we will be returning!!“

“Delicious food, great service!“

“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!“

“Fantastic standard dishes as well pizza. Hot has a kick. Will be back.“

“We were in town for Christmas and we went to dinner the day after Christmas. Claudia was a very attentive and friendly server, offering meal suggestions. I ordered the chicken piccata and I have to say it was the best I ever had. Large portions and very fresh. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I highly recommend“

“Our server, N**a, was amazing! She was so kind and helpful, my baby girl gave her the flashy bracelet she was gifted with upon discharge from Vanderbilt Children's Hospital as a token of appreciation.. So, it was obviously nothing short of amazing, God bless you girly !! (hope you get to see this review) 😁💓“

“Food was great, staff was very friendly.“

“It's has been one of the best Olive Garden's I have ate at. I'm seated within 5 minutes walking in. My server, MJ, is awesome. I don't have to ask him anything, he just does it! My experiences have been at 10/10. I usually come after work around 4:00 pm.“

“Food was amazing! Everything was fresh and hot. The server Savanah was amazing 💕 Definitely a great spot for a nice date night or a simple solo date. 10/10 across the board.“

“WONDERFUL! Went today to the Franklin location for my birthday and sat in the kitchen so my son could experience it, and WOW! The service and food were amazing, our waitress was great and Kevin the manager really made our day, he was AMAZING!! I have been going to Buca for many years but this experience was one for the books!“

“Just found this place and have eaten there twice. Food is delicious.. The outside will fool you as it’s next to a liquor store and discount beer store. The interior very clean with white table cloths and comfortable seating. My husband usually has wine with his meal. They don’t serve alcohol but said fine for folks to bring their own bottle. Family owned. Very sweet family, really good food at a reasonable price with comfortable dining . Can’t ask for anything more.“
