50 Best Italian Restaurants near West Springfield

“Love this location! I have only ever done carryout so I cant speak to the dinning service experience, however the staff is always really nice, for pick up they are always ready early. If you have never had Ledos pizza there are three things that make their pizza both unique and amazing.
1. A slightly sweeter tomato sauce than traditional pizza sauce
2. A thin buttery crispy crust, think of the texture and thickness of a thin crust pizza but the taste of more of a pan pizza, but less greasy.
3. They just load on the toppings. Its to the point where the weight of the box will shock you. Despite this each peace never seems to be overloaded or fall apart and their pizzas are always consistently delicious!“

“I cannot recommend this place enough! The atmosphere is fantastic, the food is delicious and the staff is superb. Our entire experience was something special. My father had the table side carbonara, my husband had the braised short rib lasagna and I had the famous chicken parmigiana ala vodka. The staff paid attention to our every need and made this dining experience so enjoyable. Next time we are in the area we will be sure to come back.“

“Our dinner was just amazing tonight! Everything was so fresh and delicious, and you were all so friendly, thank you so much.“

“Friendly staff -great food !“

“Friendly staff, very creative menu, no too big just the way I like it. Highly recommended“

“Fantastic food cooked by award winning chef Roberto Donna. Welcoming owner and friendly atmosphere. Our seafood calamarata and shrimp rice risotto were outstanding.“

“Great food and service we were at the Woodbridge Virginia location celebrating the end of our daughter radiation therapy treatment and we had Amanda as a waitress wonderful service and then they congratulated us and didn't charged us for the full meal. Not about the money but we still have love ❤ out there.“

“Delicious Food, Divine Wine, Lovely Evening! We shared appetizers, desserts & wine while we visited this wonderful restaurant!“

“I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Vaughn, and I can’t say enough about how wonderful the experience was. From the moment we were seated, Vaughn went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. He was friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely cared about making our meal enjoyable. This was our first time at The Farmhouse and Vaughn deserves recognition for making our visit memorable. I would absolutely recommend asking for him if you want top-notch service. The food was superb. There was not a single item that did exceed our expectations!“

“As part of the US Army, I was sustained in Italy many years ago. I have struggled until now to find quality, amazing tasting Italian food. Mamma's Kitchen in Alexandria surpassed all expectations. Every course of the meal was just what you would expect when dining in Italy. Thanks for the great experience and for the memories it brought back.“

“Vegan pizza and garlic knots“

“MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO THE ENTIRE STAFF AT MAGGIANO’s, SPRINGFIELD, VA! There are not enough word in the dictionary to describe my experience in Maggiano’s! From the time I make reservations through walking through the front door of the restaurant, the service, the managers, the chef, the food, to serving the BEST ITALIAN CUISINE SINCE ITALY, and cleanliness in the restrooms. Look, I live in Old Town Alexandria, VA, where there are some of the best Italian restaurants on the East Coast but those restaurants do not compare to my Maggiano’s. I seriously have to drive out of my way, Springfield, to get the Best Italian on the East Coast. It’s worth every second. The cuisine inside this Maggiano’s tastes exactly like my Italian grandparent’s cooked it. I frequent this restaurant at least once or twice a week. Thank you Mo, (manager), Jessie (server), and the rest of the staff at my Maggiano’s! Dana Neese, 12-23-2023.“

“The food was amazing, the husband and I shared an order of spaghetti and sausage, fried zucchini, and garlic knots. Everything was very good but the garlic knots are out of this world.“

“We love this place, never a bad meal! Made from scratch. We’ve been dining here for over 7 years! 🥗 🍝“

“Wonderful experience. Great neighborhod restaurant.Good service, great food, handicap accessable, lots of parking, fair prices.“

“Enjoyed the food immensely!“

“This establishment is outstanding and the service is exemplary. Jenn our bartender was attentive and on point. Highly recommend!“

“If in Washington, D.C. or Arlington County, Virginia, the Italian Store is a cannot miss choice for great subs, sandwiches and pizza“

“great sausage and pepper pizza!“

“We are from chicago, here passing through visiting family. This place was recommended to try by family so we did, it was near our hotel. I had my doubts because it was a chain and reading some of the reviews but to each there own, it was actually great, we loved it.
Both pepperoni pizza and wings were good. Its a Saturday night, the pizza was half off so prices were great. We went there late right before they closed so no one was there, order was done quick, the gentleman that took our order was helpful and very nice. We did carry out but you can dine in. Place seems very clean. Plenty of free parking, they are open till 11pm on Saturdays. I would recommend this place for some good pizza.“

“Anthony's Restaurant is such a lovely spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with a comforting yet refined touch. The atmosphere feels cozy and stylish, and the staff are friendly and attentive. Definitely a place I’d return to for a casual, chic meal.“

“The best pizza I've had in this area. What a hidden gem this place is!!“

“We love the food… we eat here often when in Alexandria. Spaghetti Carbonara is one of my favorites! And, my 7-year old grandson gives the kids spaghetti 2 thumbs up!“

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

“Corso Italian is a nice little restaurant that has a lot of potential but execution is a serious problem. The appetizers and pasta entrees we had for dinner were pretty good. They say they make all their pasta in house but, again, though it was good, it didn't really impress me like house pasta usually does. For appetizers, we had focaccia and ricotta to share and arancini. Both were good choices. I ordered a Caesar salad and the orecchiette, sausage and broccoli rabe. The pasta dish came before the salad and they just stuffed everything on the table. The Caesar salad was pedestrian at best. The pasta dish was very good. I thought the value of the meal was reasonable mainly because the prices seemed reasonable as well. Drinks were $16, about what you expect these days but apps (~$9 to $12), soups and salads (~$10 to ~$15), entrees (~low $20's to mid-$30's) and sides (~$6-$9) seemed below average prices these days.“

“I’ve been coming to Luciano’s in Oakton for years, and it never disappoints! This place has been a staple for me whenever I’m craving authentic Italian food, and their pizza is hands down some of the best in the area.

Incredible Pizza – The cheese pizza is a Must-Try

I’ve tried just about everything on the menu, but I always come back to their White/Cheese Pizza—it’s absolutely perfect. The crust is just the right balance of crispy and chewy, and the combination of garlic, olive oil, pecorino, and mozzarella makes it rich and flavorful without being too heavy. If you haven’t tried it, you’re missing out!

Great Ice Cream & A Solid Wine Selection

After a great meal, I always make room for their ice cream—it’s smooth, creamy, and a perfect way to end dinner. They also have a decent wine selection, and while it’s not the most extensive, they’ve picked quality wines that pair well with their dishes. A glass of wine with a fresh pizza or pasta dish just hits differently!

Warm Atmosphere & Friendly Staff

One of the reasons I keep coming back is the consistency—the food is always great, and the service is warm and welcoming. Whether I’m grabbing a casual dinner, dining with family, or just stopping in for a quick bite, Luciano’s always feels like home.

If you’re in the Vienna/Oakton area and love Italian food, this is the spot. After all these years, it’s still one of my favorites, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon!“

“In shop dining: October 2025: Stopped by and had a steak and cheese sub and fries - very good and recommened. One draw back was there is only can sodas. I like the fountain drinks much better than can or bottle. Overall pretty good meal and did not break the bank.

Delivery October 2024: Very good, tasty pizza.“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting your restaurant for the first time and truly enjoyed the experience.The food was delicious! However, I wanted to kindly suggest reconsidering the presentation of your tiramisu. Serving it on a bed of Hershey's chocolate syrup overwhelms the delicate flavors of the dessert, and not all guests enjoy chocolate—myself included. Tiramisu shines best with its classic balance of espresso, mascarpone, and a hint of cocoa. I believe many guests would appreciate it more in a more traditional form. Thank you for considering this feedback!“

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

“We have been twice now and loved everything we ordered. The food is fresh and homemade. The service was great too. We will definitely go back, especially for the stuffed pizza.“

“I had one of the best pizzas of this year at paisanos!! I’m personally a pizza guy I could eat pizza everyday but usually is hard to find a good pizza place, I was visiting family that live in Arlington we decided to get some pizzas for dinner when the food arrived i was surprised on how fresh and good that Bacon chicken ranch pizza was, nice and humble people working there can’t wait to eat this pizza again when i go see my sister again, Wish we had more places like this in Houston :(
Highly recommended“

“Thank you so much to Martha, Tom, Jason, Sarah, and the entire team who made my gathering at Alta today so special!! Martha really went above and beyond by arranging to have the surprise decor, balloon bouquet, and party favors for my guests and me! I was so overwhelmed by her thoughtfulness.“

“Had a great evening catching up at this amazing Italian spot. Reservations are recommended, but we sat at the bar and had a fantastic time. Will definitely be back to try more of the delicious food. Amazing staff, always smiles, never made us feel rushed and gave us lots of laughs.“

“Great pizza and salad. Friendly and accommodating staff. Wish we were local so we could eat here again!“

“The service is warm and pleasantly engaging and the food and beverages are outstanding. What’s not to love about Lupo?“

“⸻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great experience at Olive Garden! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Big thanks to Mr. Brayan for being so kind and attentive — he really made our visit special!“

“We were negatively greeted as a party of 6 without a reservation, g given a table next to a control for a lift which my niece had to maneuver all night. Oddly enough the restaurant did not seem that full because we were there early. The hostess was a little snarky. Service was good. Food was Excellent which saved the family evening. We were in town for a funeral and could have used some consideration. Food Excellent“

“Dinner here on our last night in the DC area and it was delicious! You can’t go wrong with any of the dishes, we are a family of 6 so tried several but the gnocchi and penne pollo were excellent! The pizza was also a hit. Even if you’re stuffed, try a dessert. Again, we loved them all. The tiramisu, cannolis, chocolate cake, and cherry gelato were the perfect ending to our meal. Great, friendly service with a cozy atmosphere and exceptional food. Definitely recommend! All 4 kids agree!“

“This is my spot! Been coming to La Casa for over 40 years and the food has always been on point. It's a great feeling knowing we have a local family owned small business in Alexandria that is successful. Thank you for the many memories you all have provided over the years through great food, and atmosphere. Keep up the great work. Thank you.“

“The high tea on Saturday was fabulous. The staff was top notch and the food and beverages delicious.“

“We ordered a large catered dinner from Ruffino’s this weekend and couldn’t be happier with the food and service. They helped us determine what quantities were needed, worked with me over phone and text to finalize details and make last-minute adjustments, and delivered piping hot food exactly when requested. Food was delicious and we’ll definitely use them again.“

“I’m gonna tell all of you… If you have seen this place and have not got in you’re wasting your time. I have professionally been eating food in Northern Virginia for over 20 years and I will tell you my first meal here is not my last. This is a definite top five in the area and takes the cake for being by far the most authentic Italian American restaurant I’ve eaten in in the area. Next time I’m bringing my 1979 Cadillac Deville and parking in the front. The Perrone is on draft enough said.“

“good food and good employees 👌“

“Excellent food; great variety!“
