13 Best Italian Restaurants near Troutville

“My wife , me and grandson family stopped there to eat. He and his family had already had eaten there previously. Highly recommend it. The food and service was excellent.“

“This is hands down the best family-owned pizza place in Roanoke! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm, friendly service that makes you feel right at home. The owners and staff truly care about their customers, and it shows in every detail.

The food is absolutely incredible. Their pizza is out of this world—perfectly baked with a soft crust, generous toppings, and rich, flavorful sauce. The steak sandwiches are packed full of flavor and cooked to perfection, and the manicotti tastes just like something you’d find in a homemade Italian kitchen. Every dish is fresh, hearty, and made with so much love and pride.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite with the family or sitting down for a relaxing meal, this place never disappoints. It’s the kind of spot you can’t wait to come back to again and again. Roanoke is lucky to have such a gem!“

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

“Great local, family owned restaurant to use for catering events. Easy to work with, VERY reasonable pricing, delivered at no charge, and, of course, delicious food!“

“Had a long day at the office and was craving a creamy ceaser salad and some firm breadsticks, and well let’s just say after a wonderful customer service experience with their waiter Daniel, I was craving another kind of breadstick if you know what I mean. Whooo weee. Daniel has a face that belongs as a contestant on Love Island and customer service abilities well beyond his years. He was caring, attentive, and very generous, all great qualities to have as a man (P.S ladies he’s single 🤭) anyways I slammed a few glasses of wine with my meal, and walked out the door very pleased and aroused. I was overall very pleased with my experience and will be revisiting this Olive Garden again!“

“They have very good Chicago pizza. It’s the best pizza I have ever had. Best place to order pizza from in my opinion. Get the Chicago. It will make you smack your grandma.“

“The pepperoni/sausage pizza I ordered was quite authentic and WAY better than the big chain pizza places. Owners are friendly.“

“My husband and I decided to try this quaint family owned Pizza Restaurant. I loved the decor and dining atmosphere! We ordered the 16” Supreme pizza and it was really good! The crust to me was perfect, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside! All around great place and can’t wait to try other menu items!“

“Got just a cheese slice which is nice. Nice crisp. Minimal flop. Good under carriage. Service was great very nice server. Franks is the closest to true NY style ive had here. Most places are either a sloppy floppy mess or 2 inches thick like a casserole and still doughy besides the crust. But in Frank's i trust.“

“If you love a local Italian place that isn’t pretentious but has great food this is your place. Ate here tonight with my husband and toddler. It wasn’t very busy for dine in which was great for us. Food came out in a timely manner and was hot and delicious. We had the meatballs to start and my sometimes picky toddler was asking for more! She had the pasta with Alfredo and was a fan. I had a calzone which was HUGE (and delicious) and my husband had what he describes as the best Philly cheesesteak ever. We cannot wait to go back and try the pizza. As for the service it was very good and the people who own it and work there are so kind and welcoming.“

“OUTSTANDING FOOD AND PHENOMENAL STAFF! Seriously even their ranch dressing is so good they sell it because it’s a favorite!

We were treated by Jordan, daughter of the owner Frank who spoiled us and made us feel like family through our whole dining experience. Legit NEW YORK Italian place - we loved it so much we brought our cousins the next night back to enjoy even more of their delicious menu!

Will be going back anytime we are in town. YOU MUST GO!!! Excellent restaurant especially for other college parents like us who are staying to visit on weekends from out of state!“

“Stopped overnight in Roanoke on our family road trip vacation, and had supper here. The food was awesome! Great grinders and pizza, and the staff was super friendly! Definitely hitting them up again next year when we roll through!“

“Went there this evening. They said new management. Hmm! Well, the service was prompt & thorough. Very efficient! Knew my needs before I did. I got a calzone & my partner got spaghetti w/meatballs. Both were excellent!!! Portions were great. (We both brought home plenty)

We will go back & would highly recommend it.“
