17 Best Italian Restaurants near Woodway

“We have been ordering from Marco's for a minute. Love their puzza and salads!! We had a small issue arise. I did bring it to their attention and sent in a detailed account with a picture. Well the owner contacted me directly, he was friendly and professional. He proposed an equitable solution and it was accepted. I have highly recommended Marco's Pizza in the past...by word of mouth. However, I believed I needed to give a proper shout out and thank them for their attention.“

“Such a gem! The food is always on point, but the service is consistently impeccable! From the carpaccio, bruschetta, roasted beet salad, and burratta to the fish entrees , pastas, & and cocktails, I have never been disappointed.“

“We enjoyed our time here! Great food and service for our 22nd anniversary! We will definitely be back!“

“Ordered for a group of around 50. Food was phenomenal. Every single family style tray was great!“

“John didn’t just serve our table, he completely elevated the entire experience. From the second we walked in, he operated on a level you’d expect from a true fine dining establishment. His welcome was warm, confident, and intentional. He immediately took ownership of our experience. He didn’t just take our order, he curated it. The way he described each dish and offered recommendations made everything feel thoughtful and elevated. And the food absolutely delivered. The chicken parmigiana creamero was incredible! Perfectly cooked, rich, and full of flavor. You could tell there was care in every detail, and John made sure we didn’t miss out on one of the best things on the menu. What really sets him apart is his presence throughout the meal. He anticipated needs before we even had to ask, his timing was seamless, and he struck that perfect balance of attentive without hovering. It felt effortless, but you can tell it’s not, it’s skill. John isn’t just a great waiter, he’s a leader. He sets the tone, takes pride in the guest experience. 10/10 experience. Ask for John, you’ll be glad you did.“

“Anytime we get a craving for pizza, Italia Express is always gonna satisfy! The SIZE FLAVOR of the pizza is always gonna keep us coming back! They also just got LEMON PEPPER wings and we’ve been waiting forever for this!! The wings were so good and flavorful, hopefully they keep them on the menu!! 10/10 ?“

“First time to eat here and what a wonderful experience! Owned by an Italian family and food is very authentic. The waitress was wonderful and very attentive and the food delicious! The bread was wonderful, not bread sticks, but baked to perfection brushed with garlic oil and parmesan sprinkled on top. I had the salad with chicken and the portions were plentiful, the salad fresh and crispy and the chicken was seasoned. So tasty and so very happy to find this great restaurant. Highly recommend.“

“I know I’m in the minority with people under 50 but I actually like the ambience. I like the music and I like the fact that the place is not super super busy but that could’ve been too because I was here early afternoon regardless I’m writing to commend my server Diana she was very good. There were three people in her area one was a family of four people part of that family spoke Spanish. She communicated with them beautifully, and there was a couple of younger girls. She handled them beautifully as well, and she took care of me. Also very good. She was attentive smiling to time. I was very impressed by her work.“

“Excited for the classic sampler!“

“Moroso Italian delivers truly authentic Italian cuisine. Had the Margherita pizza and it was amazing. Moroso does a great job with authentic Italian food, and their Neapolitan style pizza is some of the best I’ve had. The crust was light and flavorful, the ingredients tasted fresh, and everything came together perfectly. Great atmosphere and great food. I’ll definitely be back.“

“the food is always fresh and amazing!!!! very friendly and fast service!“

“Delicious pizza, great variety!“

“I cannot say enough great things about Armstrong’s! I usually get the crawfish étouffée and it’s ALWAYS delicious and only $10 for a generous portion. Today I ordered the gumbo $13, and it’s equally amazing! Their portion sizes are great, food is consistently delicious, and the service is fast. Definitely a great place for good Cajun cuisine in Waco, located amongst the many great restaurants/food vendors in Union Hall.“

“I got delivery, hot honey pizza was recommended from Ritchie was fantastic, then I got a cheese and steak, had mushrooms on it gross, I talked to Katie and she had an actual steak and cheese delivered promptly, the delivery drivers were fantastic, very reasonable priced overall I would recommend, as a well travel person from New England to Oregon. Customer service was the best I have had in Texas in the three months I have been here. Thank you to the team. They should all be commended and rewarded for their customer service. I'm only here to settle my mother estate. So if I do order pizza again while I'm here believe me you I'll be back like the Terminator.“

“So yummy I’m going tonight!“

“Oakley’s is one of my favorite spots in Waco. Great food, cold drinks, and a vibe that’s perfect after a long day. The wings and hog balls are a must-try. Staff is always friendly and the dance floor is a nice bonus. Whether it’s brunch, late night, or just drinks with friends — Oakley’s never disappoints. Highly recommend!“
