22 Best Italian Restaurants near Germantown

“Great Italian food! Very friendly people. They make you feel like family. Try every thing on the menu. Start with the meatball sandwich. Bring back memories when my grand mother made meatballs. You also need to try the pasta. Will go back any time I am in that part of town.“

“After traveling and enjoying fine Italian food I came back to Memphis with a craving of gnocchi.. quick google search brought me here !! And I’m so glad it did !! The fried green tomatoes and cornbread were delicious apps to start off !! A few mixed drinks and a glass of wine soothed the mood . The Gnocchi did not disappoint and the “ blue crab “ spaghetti was a pleasant surprise!! But the desert!!! The CHOCOLATE STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING ….Let me be clear … BEST DESERT IN ALL MY TRAVELS !! Cannot recommend Andrew Michael’s enough“

“2 thumbs up!! The food is out of this world incredible and the staff makes you feel just like family! I would make a suggestion of what to eat but so far I can't narrow down what has been the best!! If I HAD to make a suggestion it would be to just visit this eatery as soon as you can. You won't regret it. From the pizza, pasta, the apps, and even the euro sports on the TVs will have you feeling like you were transported to Italy!!“

“They did a wonderful job accommodating my lunch group of 25, from making the initial reservation to giving us separate checks. The space was cozy, the servers quickly anticipated our needs, and the food was so tasty. I will definitely eat here again and recommend it to others.“

“Hog & Hominy, located in East Memphis's Brookhaven circle, welcomed me for brunch for the first time. Booking a table was easy via Resy, with plenty of options for a Sunday. Street parking was the only choice, but the friendly welcome and quick seating made up for it. I tried their strawberry and sprite Mocktail, which was delicious. The smoked salmon hash brown was a bit unusual for my taste, so I also ordered a pancake and crispy bacon to satisfy my hunger. The atmosphere at Hog & Hominy was lovely. I enjoyed that the noise level was just right, allowing for a more intimate experience. Whether it's a girls' night out, brunch, lunch, or dinner, it's a great spot for various occasions.“

“Ciao Bella has to be 1 of my favorite restaurants in Memphis! Every dish I've had has been absolutely delicious! I try to save food to take home every time, but it never makes it! The service is amazing and I love how they designed the new restaurant! It's elegant but still very much inviting. I like to think of Ciao bella as my little well-known secret that I don't like sharing.“

“This is one of our favorite restaurants! I used to work here years ago and know the chef, Marty personally. The food is authentic Italian and ingredients are very fresh! The atmosphere is very chill, posh feel. We went for my 30th birthday dinner, and Maryna took care of my entire party! Everyone enjoyed their food and the ambiance!! The chef Marty came out to introduce himself, he is very personable yet professional. My husband says he needs to order red trout to-go after work. My bolognese eggplant parmigiano was cooked to perfection! I have missed the realness and rawness of the flavors and ingredients! Super thumbs up, my family and friends will be back along with us!Parking: If the parking lot in front of the restaurant is full you can park right next door at shared lot.Kid-friendliness: Not a kid scene but are welcome. My one year old niece joined us and was accommodated just fine.Wheelchair accessibility: First level seating with no steps.“

“The Walker Avenue location hosted our church basketball team’s pizza party and did a PHENOMENAL job. The staff was very accommodating of our large group and provided us with everything we needed. The food was delicious and we will definitely look to them for future group events!“

“Absolute burst of Italian excellence! The flavor is oozing out the doors of this place. Each bite is better than the next I cant recommend this place enough. 5 stars if there were more Id give them more. Staff and support staff are amazing catering to your every need. The atmosphere is a total Italian village vibe. I cant wait to go back“

“Came in today for my Mother's birthday. We did not have reservations because our original venue could not accommodate us even with a reservation. From walking into the door to exiting, everyone was on point from the hostess to the server and food runners. Everyone enjoyed their meal and experience. I had the Scallops and they were delicious. The only thing is that there was automatic gratuity which I'm completely fine with but it did not allow for an additional tip on my credit card. Your servers might have the opportunity to make more if you add an additional tip line to your credit card receipts. Luckily I had cash on me and was able to tip what I wanted which is well over 20%. I believe our server was named Kendrick and he did a great job.“

“Not the best photos because I was eager to dig in. The food was really amazing! I had the lasagna and I grew up in Rome for couple of years. I learned that the best bolognese lasagna should taste the sauce more than anything. The sauce was 10/10. In addition, the risotto… It hits right home for me. It was delicious!! I was surprised that this gem is in Southaven!! We will be coming back!“

“Food was hot and delicious. Service was great! Although it was a busy weekend, we didn’t wait long for a table and food arrived quickly!!Parking: Needs a bigger lot we had to drive through a couple of times and wait for someone to come out.“

“Great pizza friendly service, cold beer, what's not to like? The front dining area also handles carry out orders. If it's warm enough, there's tables outside. There's also a bar that is accessible just past the front room entrance.“

“Very glad I stopped in here tonight. I said at the bar and Addie was my server/bartender. She had great recommendations and I loved her energy. I will definitely be coming back to see her. Also, the food was amazing! I was so so happy to find that the lobster was fresh buttery and delicious!“

“I enjoyed every second of my experience due to having the best server in the building Chester! He was so attentive and knew the menu like the back of his hand and had great suggestions. The food came out fast and drinks were lovely. I highly recommend this location and request Chester for the best experience❤️!“

“Once a week we buy a take home heat and eat dinner from Lucchesi’s. This time I came for Italian Sausage Lasagna with a stick of bread and side of spinach for two.Kid-friendliness: You don’t have to drag them in by the collar if it’s your second trip to Lucchesi’s.Wheelchair accessibility: So many good things to bump into.“

“It’s been a while since I’ve had pizza so I was looking for something for dinner and I googled something about foods in the area where I was an saw Dana’s Pizza so I thought this would be a good change. So we stopped by and I glad that we did, Very Very good pizza and the people who worked there were also very nice well worth the stop and when I’m back in the area and have pizza on my mind I will be stopping by Dana’s Pizza“

“I ordered online to pick up, I live over 30 minutes away but it's definitely worth it. Ordered 3 large pizzas, all 3 the pizza maker(s) did a great job generously applying the various toppings. Also in orders 2 orders of wings, one honey bbq and 1 mild. The honey bbq was fine, nothing really to write home about but not was a nice thick sauce, not runny or anything. Now the mild, that was a really well done Buffalo sauce. I walked in, gave my name, the cashier got my food (I had paid on the website) and I was right back out the door and headed back on the road for the 30+ minute drive home. Everyone was quite happy with this dinner and I will definitely visit this location again!! As far as inside seating it looks like there's just a few tables so it's not really designed to be an est in place more of a take away.“

“Ordered online for my lunch break, co-worker ordered too. Got there at the scheduled time and there was a sign on the register that said short staffed, please be patient. Had to wait about 10 minutes. There was one employee, taking orders, handing out orders and making pizza. He was doing an awesome job, and when I made it back to work everything was correct. GREAT JOB!“

“Excellent food value, clean operation, spot on service. My favorite part of my meal was listening to a family of four in the booth next to mine have a normal, loving family night out. That was something missing from my childhood, real conversations, involved parents, normalcy. Next time, I want to be seated close to the kitchen for the mouth watering smells. From the chilled salad plates to the freshly grated parmesan, Olive Garden has much to offer.Parking: I appreciate the security detail. I parked at night by the closed bank. Parking may be tighter during the day when neighboring businesses are open.“

“Listen Memphis and tourists! This authentic Italian restaurant has everything on the menu. The food is incredible from the stuff shells to the white pizza to the stromboli. The garlic knot bread is delicious! Excellent service, food, quality and quantity. Highly recommended for Italian foodies. You don’t want to miss The Boss!“

“Great customer service... When I call in my order I'm always greeted with a nice voice on the other end very friendly and when I arrive for my order it's always on points. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my salad plus the customer service is excellent. Briana is the best.“
