21 Best Italian Restaurants in Roanoke

“Lil Cucci's is hands down the best spot for pizza! Their Sicilian style pizza is out of this world—crispy on the outside, perfectly fluffy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The people there are genuinely awesome; they make you feel like family from the moment you walk in. Plus, the Christian music playing in the background adds a warm and uplifting atmosphere that you don't find just anywhere.

My only selfish complaint? I cry during the week when we're craving pizza, and they're closed! But trust me, it's worth the wait.

Highly recommend!“

“Samantha is a wonderful waitress, exceptional service !!“

“What a great culinary experience! We had the lamb meatballs, house bread, and the fennel pizza. Amazing flavors. We had no reservation, but sat at the bar, which turned out to be perfect. The bartender was so nice. I’m not much of a drinker, so she made a mocktail drink for me based on a few flavors I told her I enjoyed. Then, we had the “Salami” dessert, wherein the chef mixes and chills chocolate, pistachios, candied orange pieces, and almond, and when you slice it they look like salami slices. It’s paired with an olive oil shortbread that was so soft and crumbly. It was one of the most creative and tasty desserts I’ve ever had.“

“Great italian place in Bonsack“

“Love their food and their pizza is awesome! I always enjoy their eggplant Parmesan and my wife had their chicken Alfredo. My son wanted a cheese pizza and we got some toasted ravioli to start the evening. Excellently prepared with outstanding service. No issues with the order and nothing but tasty goodness in each dish. This is one of our go-to places in Cave Spring!“

“Will return for the hummus alone! So tasty. Everything tasted fresh except the table bread. Did I mention the hummus? I need to buy it in bulk.
I didn’t love our server’s bodysuit but service was good. I love that you can see the cooks. Also appreciate the vegetarian options.“

“My Sister took me out to eat here yesterday and it was delicious, our server was Jacy she was fantastic. Food was nice and hot. Bravo Olive Garden you did exceptionally well. I should surely come to have lunch again sometime in the future thank you.5*****“

“The management at Montano’s is amazing. When we arrived my son walked past one of the fridge doors that holds the alcohol and got slammed in the eye. We had to rush him to urgent care since he was bleeding pretty bad and needed stitches. The manager was very apologetic. Not only was he willing to pay our medical bill, but also invited us back after our son got stitched up for a free meal. The food was great, service amazing and we will definitely be back.“

“The food & service were outstanding. Great place to dine“

“My loved ones threw my baby shower here yesterday and I cannot brag enough on how great everything was. The food was delicious, and they catered so much for us! Sliders, sandwiches, potato and pasta salads, drinks, and of course pizza! I am not a bit pizza person, but this pizza was the best I’ve ever eaten. Truly! It was SO good and everyone I saw yesterday cleaned their plates and bragged about how good it was. We have held soccer banquets there, as well as just been customers to come enjoy the food and yesterday (as they always are), the staff were so kind and attentive. I highly recommend coming and enjoying a meal (or a get together here), they do a wonderful job.

Thank you all for such great food and such a great environment for our baby shower (and all other events we see you for). We are so glad to have you in our neighborhood! ❤️“

“Lovely atmosphere, great food, amazing wait staff. Cannot recommend this place enough especially if you're open to more traditional Italian. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable on both the food and cocktails! Will definitely come back.“

“Ay, que delicioso! A mí me gusta mucho.“

“The excellent service matched the quality of the food. Highly recommend this restaurant and will return. My mother was excited to be able to order 3 gluten free items from the menu! As a vegetarian, I was easily able to identify food to eat.“

“I’ve been here twice now and both times I absolutely was not disappointed. I absolutely LOVE the food. First trip we tried the Buffalo chicken pizza and deep fried mushrooms. The pizza and the cheese just tastes so fresh. Then the ranch is also sooo creamy and good. Second time I ordered a pizza with cheese, tomato, onion, pepperoni and mushrooms, a grilled chicken salad and deep fried mushrooms. The marinara is on point… everything tastes so fresh. Keep serving up this amazing food! I can’t wait to try to rest of the menu!“

“Very good pizza and timely service we will return!“

“Fantastic pizza! Great service!“

“Great Italian grinder! Delicious!“

“The owner is a true Italian and does it right. He uses fresh ingredients and is not lacking on portion size. The Chicken Parmesan was delicious and I plan on trying many other things.“

“bad people working there who acost customers, and make 🐂💩 accusations. As you can see most of the recent good reviews are scams and spam good figure.“

“We visited on April 1 & ordered the Sicilian Hawaiian Pizza & garlic knots & it was delicious. We didn't eat at the restaurant but we did go in and order & the staff were very friendly. The place is under new management & so far their doing a great job. If we're ever back in that area, we will definitely stop in & try it again.“

“Our table of 4 had a good experience. Great spot to stop by before grabbing ice cream or bowling, just down the street!Service was incredibly personal and helpful. A+ representation of a family owned business.Food was fresh and tasted great. We felt that the preparation could’ve been done a bit better. For example ricotta cheese missing from the calzone, no scoring, possibly some presentation or color to the pesto pasta, etc. little things that would certainly make a big difference.We did especially appreciate the discount received for buying 6 beers ?? to finish off, the cannolis are delicious.We plan to return in the future! Hopefully they’ll have some music playing and tables full.“
