50 Best Italian Restaurants near Reston

“Gregorio’s is somewhere I can always feel at home with friends and family. The food is excellent and the feeling is always welcoming.“

“I had a great experience at Paisano’s Pizza, and I especially want to recognize Gaby for her excellent customer service. She is incredibly patient, helpful, and genuinely takes the time to make sure customers understand their options before ordering.

What really stood out to me was how attentive she was with elderly customers and people who were unsure or confused about the menu. She never made them feel rushed or uncomfortable she calmly explained things and made sure they were taken care of.

Customer service like that makes a real difference. Gaby is a great representative of Paisano’s Pizza, and she deserves recognition for the way she treats people. Highly recommended!“

“Restaurant for the family. Nice environment!!!!“

“excellent“

“They have the best food, quick delivery. Even ice cream delivered for desert! Yum.“

“Pupatella is a great spot for delicious food! Order the cannolis. The zesty lemon flavor with the creamy ricotta and salty pistachios was to die for! I’m ordering them to get delivered to my hotel for the second day in a row. The shells are yummy as well. Great place- good people- wonderful food. ☺️♥️“

“Great food, great service, very clean. I found my new favorite place in Reston.“

“Excellent. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Price was very reasonable. Would definitely return again! Their bread is like a huge cheesy chou pastry that is crunchy on outside and moist on inside. Carpaccio was delicious as was the Philly cheesesteak eggrolls. Gnocchi was sooooo delicious. Butter cake and warm chocolate cake worth trying for sure.“

“The bread was bussin, the calamari tasted like fried egg but in a good way. The mozarella sticks on the other hand could use better breading. The server was friendly but a bit pushy when I couldn’t eat everything. Which is understandable. Gotta be a conservationist. But lesson learned for next time. Just get the bread and calamari. 👍🏻“

“Amazing food great atmosphere and they except reservations“

“Stopped in on a whim, in the area and looking for something decent for dinner. Dolce Vita Italian is outstanding, from atmosphere to desert and EVERYTHING in between. We got the chicken marcella and filet tips gnocchi and both were off the hook good, their bread and an oil is also fantastic. The lemon martini and DV & sour drinks were very tasty. To top it all off we felt like we were in an authentic Italian restaurant in Italy and the staff were just fantastic. If in the area this place it’s tops. Yes we left with some chocolate cake to go!“

“Excellent place to dine. Very fresh food. Some of the best tasting Italian i’ve had. Also not too expensive. The wine is great too! Great restaurant!“

“Now THIS is a sandwich! The semolina sesame bread is only made better by the STACK of meat they generously pile on, plus all the toppings. I had the roast beef and turkey, and my friend had the eggplant parm… both fanTAStic. Regret I have to drive all the way from Fairfax to get here (we don’t have good sandwich places in the Frfx Sta/Burke area), but I will just to try everything on the menu. Special thanks to the guys who run it - they obviously enjoy people & their job - their friendliness is big enough to fill their small establishment. Take your appetite and GO!“

“Had a wonderful dinner with friends here. The menu has a great selection. The food we ordered were all delicious. We had the scallops, meatballs and crab dip for appetizers. Lamb chops, crab cakes and ribeye for main course. Mango sorbet and cappuccino creme brûlée for dessert. We liked all of it except the risotto that accompanied the lamb chop. Our wonderful server was fantastic. I give this restaurant 5 stars for quality of food, price and service.“

“We had the calamari which was absolutely delicious. Followed by chicken dishes that we both enjoyed very much. I would’ve given this restaurant five stars however there was one thing that we did not enjoy at all. It was the overwhelming scent of cleaning fluid and wet floors when we walked in. I felt like all those chemicals were burning my nostrils. Restaurants, please clean your floors at night as part of the closing duties. Don’t clean them in the morning when you have patrons about to walk in. Strong smells ruin the dining experience. Also, the floors were Dangerously slippery.“

“This is the best Ledo's Pizza in the area. I live in Arlington and only get my Ledo's Pizza at the Fairfax location. Muhammad always makes you feel like you're part of the family. Makes your pizza exactly the way you ask for it to be made.“

“My favorite pizza place.They know what I want. Great customer service too.“

“Love this place Great food!“

“5/5 stars for an incredible birthday celebration!

The Birthday Vibe:
We chose Olive Garden for its family-friendly atmosphere to celebrate a birthday. It is our go-to spot for important milestones, and they didn't disappoint.

The Service:
Our waitress, Mariela, took care of our large group and she was a total rock star! She was professional, warm, walked us through the menu, and perfectly answered all of our questions.

The Appetizers:
We started with the Lasagna Fritta and Calamari—both were fantastic and disappeared quickly.

The Soups:
Out of this world! The Zuppa Toscana (spicy Italian sausage, kale, and potatoes in a creamy broth) had the absolute perfect taste and seasoning. We also loved the Chicken & Gnocchi, and the Minestrone was a wonderful, vegan-friendly option for our table.

The Main Dishes: Everything we ordered for our entrees was absolutely delicious.

Great staff, amazing service, and excellent food. We will definitely return!“

Shout out to Mike and his sister who helped us arrange everything for a fun get together! Pizza was delicious and hot. Highly recommend the cookie tray for birthdays.“

“The most tasty Pizza in the area. It is so authentic and good. nice atmosphere and a very clean restaurant. the owner and the workers are so sweet and friendly. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.“

“The staff here is truly incredible! I accidentally placed an order for the wrong day, but they were so understanding and got eight pizzas and appetizers made for me in 20 minutes, and helped me get it all to my car. Outstanding, outstanding service all around, will definitely be ordering here again (on the correct day this time)!“
