46 Best Italian Restaurants near St. Paul

“We have come here for years , some people will like and some not, not crowded you can actually talk to each other and not have kids running around and a bunch of racket. great place for a teenage guy to take a girl on a date that they can talk to each other. Entrees are large.“

“Went there last night, awesome service, amazing food, the stuffed mushrooms were off the chart, along with our entrees! Staff made you feel like you were in Italy. Best Italian I have ever eaten. Hopefully we can get back out that way again soon!! Might have to have dessert the next time!!“

“it was our second visit to Besa's The food was absolutely wonderful !! Great service !! I had the Spaghetti, the works and my hubby had penne pomodaro. No hesitations about going back“

“My wife and I tried Tutto for the first time today after finding it online. It’s takeout or delivery only but don’t let that stop you from ordering! This is the most amazing Italian food we have had, and we have tried a ton of highly rated places. We won’t be going anywhere else from now on. Everything we ordered was hot, fresh, and made with high quality ingredients. The kind of home made food that makes you close your eyes for a moment when you take a bite and just savor it. It’s that good. The waiting area is nice and clean and the staff is friendly and inviting. Great job Tutto.“

“First time here
I can give them four stars in total.
But the garlic bread we ordered wasn't even close to garlic bread.It just looked like a bread with butter.
The cheese bread was good .Also we ordered spinach calzone it was just ok .“

“10/10 food, Go and enjoy!“

“Here to say we've ordered a variety of items from Dough a half dozen times now and they have proven to be consistently delicious 🍕. Tonight we had a pepperoni jalapeno pizza and a veggie alfredo pizza. Yum!“

“I would highly recommend this Olive Garden location. The manager Brandon was absolutely amazing. Not only was he checking on the tables he was helping clean the tables and also helping bring out food. He went above and beyond what most managers do. Our server, Sam was a very sweet. Always checked up on us made sure we had everything we needed and even gave us really good recommendations.“

“Food was hot but not seasoned well. Staff was friendly and attentive“

“Pizza Getti was okay overall. We ordered wings and drinks, and everything was decent but nothing really stood out. The wings were cooked well and the drinks were what you’d expect. The service was fine, and we didn’t have any major issues during our visit.

It wasn’t a bad experience, but it also wasn’t one that left a lasting impression. If you’re looking for a casual place to grab a meal, Pizza Getti gets the job done. I’d consider coming back, but it’s not at the top of my list.“

“The Olive Garden on Stacy in Allen Is outstanding whether you want to dine in or order to go. Liz and the ladies at the front desk are delightful! They are so helpful making everytime a great family time. I even made a mistake on my order to be delivered and Liz called me up tp make it right and easy to correct! That's service Above and Beyond! Thank You All for great service and Fabulous food ALWAYS!“

“Our experience at Mint Rowlett has been excellent! The whole staff is open and friendly and concerned that they do everything right. Aaron, who cleans my teeth, is not only good at his job but also, well...see above - open, friendly and concerned about my comfort. The decor is also bright and welcoming, not like the old-fashioned 'trip to the dentist.' My wife and I highly recommend Mint in Rowlett.“

“Super delicious food and the atmosphere is very nice and comfortable, and the owner is the nicest❣️“

“The kids have been under the weather for the last week so we finally got out of the house today and I decided to take them to Jim's PIZZA! Restaurant for lunch. (Mostly cause I have heard they have a killer salad bar.) and despite my daughter dropping her full plate of pizza, my son screaming and the giant mess we made on the floor..it was a great experiebce. Ten out of ten for customer service, ten out of ten for the salad bar, and ten out of ten for the sweet lady who asked if i needed any help. What an awesome place and I highly recommend! Also to whoever bought my next meal there-a huge thank you!!! A little kindness goes such a long way and you truly made my day. 😊 Also, Scott's awesome!“

“This place was on point. Great value for the money. Quality of food and drink was good and staff was friendly and attentive. We will be back!“

“Its Olive Garden, you can pretty much expect the same thing from any location. Cant go to olive garden without getting the salad and breadsticks. For the main I got the chicken alfredo either tortellini pasta. I wasnt expecting the tortellini to be filled! The flavor of the sauce and the pasta was really good, and the chicken was so tender. You get a lot of food for the money, from this plate i was able to make 3 meals out of it! Service is really good at this location. You cant really go wrong here.“

“Great birthday dinner for my in wife. Italian food is great! Their polenta appetizer is to die for. Jsmust a quick FYI they do not have pizzas at the moment. The birthday cannoli was a great end of meal treat! Staff was extremely helpful and made great suggestions.“

“To the manager at Napoli's in Wylie. I want to compliment you on your staff and the service I received the last couple of times I've been there throughout the Christmas holidays. These young people were very friendly to all customers both in person and on the telephone. They were busy about their task at hand. I never saw them cutting up or just standing around. They were all working. I want to give a special compliment to Joseph our waiter who checked on us several times throughout our meal even though it was crowded. He was very kind and respectful.And also to Caitlin or Kaylan who took my phone order. She was very friendly and helpful. If you have the funds I think these young people deserve a reward of some kind. Thank you for hiring and training your employees to treat customers in the way they would like to be treated. Have a great holiday season.“

“We went today with 4 young kids and 4 adults. We were treated like royalty! Food was delicious, owner brought out a complimentary slice of chocolate cake for my 4 year old grandson and gave all the kids a quarter for the skittles machine. Our waiter was very polite and accommodating. Our lunch was so delicious and generous in portions. We have been fans of Napoli for years!“

“awesome food. great service. we had lasagna“

“oh my God this is a family run business. these are down home folks they make you feel like family The food is phenomenal the restaurant is tidy and clean. The people are warm and wonderfully friendly I can't wait to come back and see my NEW extended family !!💘“

“So happy that AZ's best pizza has come to Texas!! This place is amazing. The pizza dough is thick and delicious, the cheese stretches, the sauce is so good. The lunch deals have unbeatable prices, but even for dinner, it's so worth it. I love Barro's!“

“Family owned and operated Italian food thats amazing! Always fresh, great service and super friendly! We love this neighborhood restaurant!“

“We ate La Bella Italian Grill & Pizzeria with the family and it was delicious as usual! Great food, great service, and great prices! This is definitely my go to favorite Italian restaurant as of recent! Also, this is a great place to relax and watch the games as they have multiple tv’s showing the top football games of the day! They also boast a decent selection of wines and beers for your relaxing enjoyment! Tonight I had the Meat Calzone, and my wife and daughter shared a cheese pizza! 🍕 Washed down with a delicious (couple of glasses of) sweet tea! If you haven’t already been to La Bella Italian Grill & Pizzeria, I definitely recommend, you won’t be disappointed!!“

“Yummy. Best pizza in town“

“It was very good and great service!“

“Call the Lucas store, they answer the phone, take delivery orders, and not send you to the website. Supper friendly, fast service and the best pizza around. These guys are my Go to Lunch or Pizza for the game guys. They treat everyone like they are a special guest! I cant say enough good about them.“

“We stopped by for lunch and took advantage of their lunch specials. My wife grabbed the Greek salad and a bottle of water, while I chose a small thin crust pepperoni pizza and a 20 oz. bottle of Mountain Dew. We had outstanding customer service and we got our food very quickly.“

“I’ve never tried their pizza. But I have tried their pasta and it’s a slam dunk. Just don’t order any cheesecake for that, You can go to Walmart and pay cheaper because that’s exactly where it came from. It is not homemade and it’s dry. That’s why I don’t go to Walmart to get it. So for the 5.95 I paid I’ll now have to Dr it up a bit to eat it“

“excellent customer service. the guy at the counter is always friendly and helpful.“
