17 Best Italian Restaurants near Riverdale

“Ceanbrianna was our waitress tonight and she was on point! Best service we’ve had anywhere in a long time. Food was great, place was clean despite being busy with graduation parties. Tried the new Calabrian Steak and Shrimp Bucatini and it was sooo good. A little heavy on the sauce, but flavor was on point!“

“First time here and was totally happy with the entire visit from service, food, and atmosphere. The server was on point there when needed and disappeared out of sight. The music was great for the environment not to loud to interrupt our conversation. The food was great from the bread to the main course. The Lasagna was amazing recommend it to anyone. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their food and we definitely did too. The food was well worth the price and again recommend all to try this place out. Will be back in the future“

“My husband and I wanted to try a new restaurant for dinner tonight! We decided to give Napolis a try, we were not disappointed.. We were seated almost immediately and the service was great! We were greeted served drinks and fresh hot bread within 5 minutes of sitting down! The food was delicious and hot! The portion sizes were great and the prices reflect accordingly! Growing up with Italian grandparents and having authentic Italian food all the time, I tend to be a “ snob” about Italian food.. Napolis did not disappoint! If you’re looking for fast service, hot fresh food and great pasta.. I’d give this place a try!“

“We had a great lunch today! All the food was good and the staff were friendly and fun! We will definitely be back!“

“Authentic Italian. Meatball Parmesan was amazing. Pizza too. Oh, and the cheesecake!“

“Okay! First off, Kris (I hope I spelled her name right!!) WAS AMAZING!! She was the kindest and sweetest person ever. She made my partner and I’s night.

She made sure that all of our questions were answered and she made the absolute best Vanilla Lemonade🤤 1000000/10 service.

Will be returning and looking forward to having Kris be our server again!“

“Service has always been what sets Ligoris apart for me. If you have a request, they'll find a way to fulfill it. They've always come across as a pretty friendly bunch, too. It's refreshing.

For me, the best aspect of the food is the price. It's standard Italian fare (pasta, pizza, etc.), but the price just feels *right*--not too high, not too low. The flavors are on par with what you pay. Nothing here has knocked my socks off, but nothing's been a complete disappointment either. I like the chef salad: it's huge and loaded with ingredients that double as pizza toppings.

The restaurant itself is appropriately decorated, but the harsh and bright fluorescent downlighting can feel uncomfortable (especially if you have a migraine). Curb appeal isn't fantastic, but you know where you're at.

It's worth noting that, quirks and all, Ligoris has become an Ogden classic. You'll most likely eat here at some point if you live in Ogden for any length of time. Ligoris also caters and assists with fundraisers.“

“The food is amazing. The owner truly cares about her customers. The staff was slow and didn’t greet us. I will definitely go back, only because the owner cares and will make things better if you have a bad experience.“

“As a former Chicagoan who has spent over 20 years searching for a decent pizza in Utah, I had almost given up hope of finding anything that could satisfy my deprived heart. Enter Taboo Pizzaria, a local gem I stumbled upon just last year... although not Chicago pizza, it’s been an absolute game-changer for me. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. But the real magic begins when the pizza arrives. The crust strikes the perfect balance - crispy on the outside and delightfully chewy on the inside. The sauce, bold and vibrant, is clearly made with love, and the cheese? Melted to perfection, stretching with every bite like a scene straight out of my pizza dreams! Lol! Their menu offers a variety of creative, mouthwatering options, but you truly can’t go wrong with a large, extra marinara, spicy sausage, pepperoni, green olive and jalapeño pizza. Each bite is a symphony of flavors that proves Taboo Pizzaria isn’t afraid to break the mold while staying true to what makes pizza such a beloved comfort food. Taboo Pizzaria has restored my faith in Utah's pizza scene, and it’s become my go-to spot whenever I need a taste of something extraordinary. If you’re on the hunt for pizza that’s anything but ordinary, give Taboo Pizzaria a try. You won’t regret it! :)“

“I happened to stop by, walked in to get a piece of pizza and see what it was like. Went in the door for the “family dining,” very small and dark and no one there. A Tuesday evening at 7 pm. The owner came out to great me and invited me to come to the other side. He took me around but warned me if I walked one way I’d have to become an employee . Pretty funny.

Around the bar counter were about 10 people, think all men, (I’m married 60s female) watching 3 different games at the same time, hockey, basketball, and football. Cheering loudly and having a great time. Appeared to be regulars. All the booths were empty, but 2 people were sitting at 1 table in front of the TV. I looked around and decided I didn’t want to eat alone, so asked to join them. After looking at the menu, everything so reasonably priced, I chose a personal pizza. It was great, almost like a wood fired one at TiAmo in Bountuful, but way cheaper. Definitely better than Pizza Hut. Really wanted a beer but was driving. Has a great conversation with man and woman at my table, turns out she was the owner and he a former employee. There were many other places to watch games, look at sport paraphernalia etc. It’s not the brand new chain owned look or feel sports bar. Feels like people you’d meet out and about, former Hill employees, etc. I think they were older men at the bar, but I didn’t really notice much. T had interesting stories to tell about working at Hill. So if you want to feel like you aren’t just another customer, but part of an extended family, then this is the place. Had no other food but the male customer said he won’t eat pizza any where else.“

“Z Brothers pizza discriminated against an disabled employee. The manager short lady short hair at the Layton store sent a disabled employee explicit videos while at work 2025. this employee never asked for it which she claims this employee "begged her" to send it which was a complete abhorrent lie. this employee asked the owners Matt and Jake Thompson for a meeting about the disgusting video and disability accommodations from a Doictor note. they determined to let "bygones be bygones" And that "life isn't dair!" and do nothing about it. the manager completely lied about it, and other incidents of harassment directed to the former disabled employee. gas lighting them to take all the blame so the manager would avoid any responsibility. This former employee filed a case with the Utah Labor Commission and the EEOC which is still in litigation as of 2026. another former employee saw the manager talking with employees about private medical information about this employees disabilities. another employee who was discovered smoking weed in the restaurants bathroom while at work in the Layton store and would come to work under the influence on several occasions. That employee is now charged with a crime as of February 2026 for threatening this former employee about what the manager told them about the case. The owners Matt and Jake Thompson continued to look the other way of the managers despicable lies about the former employee and believe these despicable lies. the owner Matt Thompson verbally harassed and retaliated against this employee calling them " the worst person they have ever met" and is recorded in a lengthy phone call. the Utah Labor Commission and EEOC case is ongoing and will continue through June 2026 potentially further. the owners need to be held accountable for disability discrimination retaliation and harm caused by the Layton store manager.“

“Food is great but its all teenagers that work there so dont expect much for service. We stood at the front waiting for someone to seat us for 5 minutes with several other groups and the restaurant was pretty empty. I only saw a couple tables with people at them.“
