Italian Restaurants near Powell

“We ordered the fried mushrooms, chicken Alfredo, kid's spaghetti, taco pizza, and carrot cake.The fried mushrooms were my favorite part. They arrived hot and still crispy with a thin breading that was really tasty. I wish I'd gotten a few more mushrooms for the price 9/10The Taco Pizza is loaded with toppings on a very thin crust. It made it a little difficult to eat without falling apart, but the taste was pretty good. 7.5/10The chicken Alfredo was what I was really hopeful for being good. The chicken was really salty, but that actually works for me. The fettuccine noodles were cooked really well; not overdone like so many pastas you get to go. The sauce honestly tastes like the jarred sauce I've used at home (Bertolli) which doesn't bother me... It's just something to consider if you're craving Alfredo sauce that tastes more like cream/butter/Parmesan. It was a pretty good value since it also came with a salad and garlic bread 8.5/10The kids spaghetti was a really good size for $3.00 with well cooked noodles and a robust marinara. 8/10The carrot cake was moist and sweet. We got a good sized piece, too 7/10Conclusion: I would order from here again! The delivery was within the expected timeframe and the food arrived hot. I definitely need more of those fried mushrooms!!!“

“Do they need another 5 star review?? I must include another! Amazing Fungi pizza.. just so good! Friendly & knowledgeable service by Fahed .. Carmel or pistachio gelato will take you to another level. Weekday late evening was an easy entry to an obviously popular dining spot.“

“Hands down the ABSOLUTE BEST ITALIAN IN KNOXVILLE. I am super picky with who makes my food, however Uncle Sam's has completely set the bar for what food service should be!Glad to have you in Knoxville, this is now my families favorite restaurant!!!“

“I had my first visit at Pizza Inn tonight and I was really impressed. They were packed but I decided to wait. What I noticed was a host that was keeping things moving along and keeping guests being taken care of. I noticed he was writing things down the old school way, on a piece of paper, and people were sat so quickly. It was nice to go to a buffet and feel like I was back at the first mom and pop pizza place I ever worked at. I even heard a waitress call a guy by name and not even have to ask his drink order! Way to go guys. I’ll definitely be back! Oh and p.s. the food was wonderful and hot the spot!“

“DEEP DISH in TN!! Authentic deep dish in TN. So tasty lots of cheese and a nicely done crust. Wife had calzone and it was nicely done and loaded with cheese as well. Even the spaghetti passed kid approval. Dining area is small only 3 tables. All in all definitely worth the stop!!“

“Gondolier prepared our rehearsal dinner for our son’s wedding recently and it was absolutely delicious and everyone loved it! Their staff was so helpful and courteous and when we arrived to pick it up everything was fresh and packaged nicely complete with serving utensils. We totally recommend! Thank you Gondolier!“

“Visiting from San Diego and blown away by the quality of their pizza and garlic knots. You can taste the difference in their quality of cheese and their marinara sauce is noticeably superior. I almost never dip my bread in marinara but the I couldn’t get enough of this savory sauce.“

“this was a very fun and unexpected find, stumbled upon it, and glad we did. the decor is lively, the staff is charming and the food was delicious. really enjoyed the pesto gnocchi...the pesto was rich and a bit spicy, nice touch with the roasted pignoli. also tried the pear ginger cocktail and it was refreshing as advertised. thia is a fun place I'll seek out again if i drive through knoxville again one day.Vegetarian options: the kitchen was kind enough to make mine without meat, there were other options, but how can one resist gnocchi?“

“Love the meat sauce pasta. Great salad. Love the half n half cold ice tea. Great prices. The serving size is giant . Food is so yummy. Ordered from intercom and they delivered my order to my car. Kinda a blast from the past eating in your car. Nice people, great food, and awesome prices“

“The first thing to know about this place is that the ambience is perfect ! It's such a beautiful little place with a lot of charm! 10/10 on ambience! My boyfriend and I split an appetizer salad and it had baby spinach salad with strawberries and a soft mozzarella cheese ball in the middle. We really enjoyed that. My son had a kids portion of spaghetti and meatballs and he scarfed it down with the quickness so we gave that a 10/10 as well! For main entree, my boyfriend had the veal and I had the lasagna. The menu said spinach noodles with the lasagna, which made me a little nervous but I was surprisingly pleased with the way it tasted. The veal was good but it did not come with a sauce only lemon wedges so it was somewhat plain but the breading was delicious and it was perfectly cooked! We also had a side of Brussels which were very good and crispy! For dessert we had tiramisu, it was served in a rocks glass and was delicious! Lastly, our server Jade was fantastic! She had a great southern flair and a cute Tennessee draw that we loved . She was super attentive and took good care of us! We would give this place a 4/5 and we would def return again! Thanks Jade for a great dining experience on our way through Knoxville!“

“I had a wonderful dinner at Altruda’s last night. Our server, Mia was fantastic. She was attentive, kind, and went above and beyond to ensure my boyfriend and I had a great experience. I look forward to trying a new dish the next time I’m there.“

“Came in for dinner last night, service was good and food was delicious. Thought it was a bit odd when we walked in and there was a younger hostess eating breadsticks behind the small counter and looking up at us. I saw her seating people after I went to the restroom. Great overall experience though“

“Food was great and affordable, has a cozy Italian atmosphere. I believe my servers name was Grant and he did an excellent job and was very funny. A server named Marybeth was also doing a great job but she was not as funny as Grant. Matt is a great pizza chef too. 5/5“

“Only sad face, and loss of a star was that they used to bring out more bread sticks and check on their guests. That didn't happen. To busy chatting, I guess? I mean, it was seriously yummy, and filling. And at the counter they are super great.They bring your meal out, on real plates. You get real cutlery. They bus the tables. It's very clean. But once they bring your meal, you never see them again. So only 4 stars.This was 6.99. so very worth it.“

“Our host/hostess/server Shaya really made our first visit memorable. Have been by SPP a million times but never stopped. We wanted pizza and beer this afternoon and randomly picked Sargent Pepper Pizza. The service and food was as good as it gets. Recommend the Buffalo cheese dip as a starter. We’ll recommend SPP to everyone and it’ll be our new pizza destination. Thanks Shaya and crew. See ya soon!“

“I’ve never been disappointed with any of their food. Pizza is amazing and so is everything else. I would recommend their pepperoni pizza and some buffalo wings with fries. Also their customer service is top notch. I’d definitely recommend going here for lunch/dinner“

“Great food and a great atmosphere with perfect lighting. The music was great and at a perfect level. Acoustics were great. You can hear each other talk and it is not loud I. There. To me this is the quintessential “old Knoxville” great restaurant. We are lucky to have it.“

“Solid local community Italian joint. Food is good services good atmosphere is good prices are good nothing really to complain about. It may not win a Michelin star anytime soon but you always get consistent and quality food and service here. They also have good hours as compared to other places “

“So tasty Italian style!! The bread and oil before dinner...yum. The salad, me, and the Italian Chicken soup...so good! I had the chicken piccatta.... excellent ?. My guest had the Italian Trio...so much good food. Our bartender was most excellent with some great suggestions. Such a vast menu, great servers and tasty food... it's worth a visit!!!“

“It was our first time ever going to one of these restaurants and we decided last minute to get Italian food for our anniversary.The restaurant was closing in an hour and we decided to go anyway.The ambience was lovely, the Italian music was a nice touch, and we were greeted very enthusiastically by our server Beau. He was so friendly and didn’t seem the least bit annoyed to have us show up so late. We both have worked food service and try not to put others in the situation but with young kids we can only get out every once in a while.Beau showed to our seat right as we walked in, got us our drinks right away, and was very helpful in explaining the menu and what the favorites were as well as his personal favorites. We took his recommendation and the Esalata della Casa and the Chicken Bacon Flatbread were both delicious as appetizers.We decided to order the Margarita Pizza and the Fra Diavolo pasta. The pasta is amazing and the pizza unfortunately came out with a hair on it but my wife noticed it right away and not only did they remake it but they took the price of our order.I usually don’t care too much on service as long as it’s polite and the food is good but this time the care was exceptional and the food was amazing.We mentioned that it was our anniversary and Beau got us a dessert for free (we weren’t expecting it so it was even better). Even though they were getting close to closing he was also happy to make us a little extra bread to go since the portions are ginormous and we couldn’t finish it all.Overall I’d give it an 8/10 but if you can get Beau I’d say 10/10 go absolutely.Oh and the dessert we got (also a recommendation from Beau) was the cheesecake and it was delicious!I couldn't have asked for a better dining experience.Bravo! is an apt name for this restaurant!“

“This place could be so much more, but because of the lazy owner, it has trickled down to a lazy staff. The food is horrible and some of the staff are lazy, not all, but most. The drinks are in small glasses and food is very processed (frozen stuff they just heat up) They NEVER advertise in advance to show what bands are playing and if it weren't for the bands in the first place and the fact that there's no other bars in the area, they'd be out of business. It's the bands that keep them in business, not to mention that there isn't anything else (entertainment wise) anywhere near, so they have a monopoly by default. If they had competition, they'd be done. worst customer service and food around. Also, there's no dance floor, so if you want to dance, you have to move chairs and tables yourself or just sit at your table and chair dance.“

“North Knox favorite for good American Italian food lots of cheese, spaghetti sauce. The salad and dressing were homemade and very fresh. It’s good family eats. I worked here for several years when it was Arthur’s through college to pay tuition. Arthur made lots of jokes about college boy that can’t spell when I had to post specials on the marquee- that was me. Good times and free captains wafers and ranch for servers.“

“This Jets is always awesome! The jet 10 is one of the best pizzas all around at the best price! Thank you to the owners including their Pizza Perfect Pizza magic making amazing son & crew! everyone in our family absolutely loves the ranch. From this location it has never came to us any other way than perfect and it's always fresh! Thank you for that as well.Vegetarian options: They have fresh salads anything that that is partial vegan like vegetable pizzas and maybe sandwiches!Parking: This location is in a strip mall that is accessible and easy to maneuver with a traffic light on a busy busy main road it also makes it easier that there is slower businesses closer to the busy businesses it seems to be strategically placed in such a Manor can you wear the traffic flows naturally at the most busy times.“

“The best calzones in Knoxville. In fact, if you are visiting Knoxville you should definitely eat here before you leave. They make their own crust and marina, both of which are off the chain! If you can eat there right after it comes out of the oven, it is even better!“

“Always good food, however I was surprised at the cost. I had only one bowl of soup and usually adjustments are made since the printed cost is for unlimited refills which due to gastrointestinal surgery I can't eat more than one. So for one delicious watermelon sangria, one bread stick and one bowl of soup, including tip I paid $22. Sadly I don't think I will be back.“

“Am from New Jersey New York . Everyone I. Knoxville claims the have the best pizza. I have tried them but this place is the best pizza and bread sticks I have ever had in TN. If you are in the area stop in and try it. I even met the owner and what a great person he is and use the products on the food he makes. I will drive the 35 mins to eat there again. Oscars reulws“

“Our group of five had a wonderful dinner served by our outstanding waiter, John. Every dish at the table was individually excellent, with well-balanced flavoring - fresh and beautifully prepared. Our group can recommend specifically the Artichoke Fritti, Local Caprese Salad, and the Warm Castelvetrano Olives in the antipasti appetizer category. As main dishes, we just loved the Pollo ‘Al Mattone’, the Pan Roasted Sustainable Salmon, the Pork ‘Milanese’, and the Gnocchi Amatriciana. The Butterscotch Budino and Dark Chocolate Torte merit their own visit if you are just in the mood for something sweet and sublime in a pleasant, conversation-friendly atmosphere. We will return very soon.Dietary restrictions: There are at least two premium keto-friendly options on the menu (not salads.)“

“We are new to the area. Best Italian I’ve had in a long time. Everything is so fresh. The meatballs melt in your mouth. Oh my goodness the cannelloni was out of this world. The dessert all homemade absolutely delicious! Everyone was so kind and helpful.“
