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.“

“Yo this burger place definitely surprised me. The burger was juicy, fries were crispy, and the milkshake honestly slapped 😂. Food quality was easily the best part of the whole experience. Service was still solid but the wait time took a little longer than expected during dinner rush. Atmosphere was fun though and the restaurant felt clean and comfortable. Definitely coming back because the food alone was worth it 🍔🔥🥤“

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

“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. ☺️♥️“

“excellent“

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

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

“This was a great experience after seeing the sign for this restaurant from the Dulles Toll Road. We opted to sit outside and Aria did a terrific job of taking care of our table. We had a nice Nebbiolo selected from the extensive wine list to go along with our spaghetti & meetbals, as well as the veal. The arugula salad along with a grilled sausage appetizer were amazing. We highly recommend Davios and we will be back soon!!“

“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“

“Doesn't disappoint from walking in to finished meal. Classic Italian, top notch service, worth every dollar spent.“

“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!“

“Our first visit to Cafe Renaissance and will not be our last. Wonderful staff, menu and food. The wine list is extensive and overall dining experience could not have been better; it was a super evening.“

“This place was incredible. The service was excellent and everyone was super friendly. The servers were knowledgeable about the food and the drinks and were able to make recommendations when asked for them. On top of the food, we tried 3 different alcoholic beverages, their seasonal white, a sparkling rose, and limoncello. Each was incredible and paired great with the food. The entrees were really flavorful and unique and the desserts were perfectly balanced. Special shoutout to our waiter Angel for being incredbly kind and friendly! He really made our experience better.“

“Not a chain style pizza. Local owned. Food is made fresh to order.“

“I recommend everything about this place. Pieros corner is a true neighborhood restaurant authentic Italian restaurant. Everything on the menu is absolutely amazing. The owner, the staff, the servers everybody is excellent at this place and the food is phenomenal, especially their pizzas and their seafood.“

“Today Italian Gourmet was amazing getting a tray of sandwiches ready in very short time. They are the best!“

“Service was awesome. Food was good, especially sesame bun when we sat down, and good tomato brushetta. Not a fan a dogmatic menu statements against substitutions, etc. Also my wife was not impressed with having to ask for (and pay extra) for a tiny bowl of side pasta for chicken parm. Tables seem to be too close together. Overall OK experience being our first time there.“

“Small place, 3 tables at least. But let me tell you, best sandwiches around. Basically a small mom and pop shop and a must try in Leesburg. It's a system in place, you have to know what you want when it's your turn, fast pace and get ready to order.“

“Lucia's is my favorite Italian restaurant. Lasagna,Ravioli,Pizza, fresh baked bread and the best Steak and cheese subs !“

“Excellent food and the owner aims to please her customers!“

“Best Italian around with the friendliest staff who are always right there to greet you and make you feel so welcome!“

“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.“

“Great bar atmosphere and bartenders.“

“You need to try the chicken sub from this place especially made by daddy . It’s very delicious !!!!“

“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.“

“it's nothing at all like a NY pizza dough is not hand tossed . It's basically like any chain style pizza . service was quick and cooked properly. typical pizza for a kids party etc .“

“We had never eaten there before. Tried it on the 11th of July, '26 for lunch. The gentleman named Michael was so helpful and personable. There is a lot to choose on the menu: Salads, Subs, several Italian dishes, and of course, Pizza. We ordered Chicken Wings, A Steak and Cheese Sub, and Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. ALL 3 meals were fantastic. This is going to be our go to place for subs from now on. We look forward to trying the Pizza. If it's just as good, this will be our go to take-out/delivery place. 5 stars for food and service.
I rated it a 3 for atmosphere, but only because the eat in section is small and VERY basic, but, hey, it's primarily an order food business.
Highly recommend.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Love this place Great food!“

“Fantastic employees, management and owner! This Marcos location is the best.“

“stopped by here for lunch since i drive by all the time. i was highly impressed. it’s a small shop but the food it’s incredible. i think it was the owner who helped me out he was very friendly and made everyone coming in smile and laugh.

now for the food: i got the reuben and it honestly was the best one ive ever had. the bread was soft while the edges were crisp. and it had alotttt of filling. it was a messy sandwich but i’d get it again and again. also got a side of fries and putting the fries inside the sandwich was honestly really good too.
the desserts looked really good so i couldn’t resist i ended up getting a hazelnut mouse. oh my god. it was really good it reminded me of a ferrero rocher but it wasn’t crunchy it was incredibly smooth and silky.
the verdict is i highly recommend this spot, they also have wine to sip and non alcoholic drinks as well. i definitely will be coming back soon for another lunch.“

“Only problem so far is fire alarm went off at 430am“

“The staff was incredibly accommodating for a small birthday party. They made sure we ordered food before everyone arrived so we weren't waiting long. 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.“

“Kim was absolutely amazing! From the moment we were seated, she made us feel so welcome and taken care of. She was friendly, attentive, and had such a positive attitude throughout our entire meal. She checked on us at just the right times, made great recommendations, and truly went above and beyond to make our dining experience special.

You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests, and it made a huge difference. We really enjoyed having Kim as our waitress, and she is one of the main reasons we’ll be coming back. Thank you, Kim, for your outstanding service and for making our visit so enjoyable!“
