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!“

“Our son recently moved to Arlington and he said this was the best Italian food that he ever had! Last night we went there for dinner and couldn't agree with him more. We had some initial issues with our service and seating , but the General Manager, Stefano and our waitress Shandra took care of us and the service that they gave us was outstanding; probably the best that I ever had at a restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious! We will be back every time that we visit our son. There are so many dishes that I cannot wait to try and the pasta is all homemade. Thanks for making our dinner so special. We love it here!“

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

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

“Friendly staff -great food !“

“We were tired from touring all day and the clerk at Springhill Suites recommended an Italian place “just around the corner”. As we got closer, we could detect delicious smells in the air. As we entered, a cheery staff greeted us, and the cozy space was decorated with lots of photographs and traditional green and white checked tablecloths. We were offered fresh garlic bread while we looked over the menu. We both decided on the “individual” pizza, but let me tell you, us 2 ladies could’ve easily just split one! The veggie pizza was soooo fresh and yummy. If we’re ever in the area again, would definitely go back!“

“Delicious food and the wait staff is fabulous!“

“Amazing food great atmosphere and they except reservations“

“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.“

“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.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Paisanos Pizza in Woodbridge, and it was a fantastic experience! The pizza was delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors and a wonderfully crispy crust.

What really stood out was the exceptional service from the store manager, Tony. He was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and that our visit was enjoyable. His positive attitude and genuine care for customers made our meal even better.

I highly recommend Paisanos Pizza for anyone looking for great food and outstanding service. I can’t wait to return!“

“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 sausage and pepper pizza!“

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

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

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

“Enjoyed the food immensely!“

“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! 🥗 🍝“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Place was clean, quick, orderly and calm. Want nice pizza or a darn good salad in a reasonable amount of time? Go here, they got standards and work hard, and a good manager.

Vegetarian options: They can put bo meat on a pizza or salad, simply ask. They are honest, upfront and can tell you the ingredients.

Kid-friendliness: The people here are nice and focused on their job, want a good meal, large portions and a quick stop with the fam. This place won’t disappoint.“

“Awesome place. Food is beyond amazing. Staff was professional and kind. Can not say enough about this place. Will come back very soon.“

“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!“

“I love coming in here especially when Evelyn is working. She is always so kind and helpful, she really makes this store feel like such a warm environment, Javier is another families face I see when i pick up, it’s obvious that he really loves his job and he is commuted to what he does, it’s rare that you see a boy his age be such a hard worker. Paisanos is definitely my favourite pizza in town, the employees are just an extra plus.“

“Great brunch experience. A restaurant does not have to be perfect to have a great experience and meal. My wife and I decided to try brunch and had a really nice time. Clean and friendly with nice decor and better atmosphere. Food was top notch! Fresh ingredients, well prepared, and appropriately seasoned. I have had eggs Benedict the world over and this was one of the best I’ve ever had.

Two issues were our server, and most of the service team honestly, seemed a bit inexperienced and our peach Bellini. It definitely was not a peach Bellini.

I would definitely be willing to give Corso a try if in the neighborhood.“

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

“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.“

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

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

“We got delivery. We tried all of the soups, and all were great!

We also got the Shish Kabob and Eggplant Parmesan. Both were ok, nothing special about either. The prices were very high so for the entrees so I expected better quality; however, .the portions were large.

We also got the Tiramisu and Cheesecake. Both were very good.“

“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!“

“We’ve been meaning to dine at Dolce for years and finally had the opportunity to do so recently. We wish we did it sooner. The interior atmosphere was authentic and personal. It wasn’t made and genuinely felt like an authentic Italian restaurant.

The food was absolutely delicious as well. Their house salad was balsamic based and it was fresh and delightful. We also especially enjoyed the shrimp scampi. We look forward to visiting again and trying other dishes.“

“Wow! First time at this Olive Garden and I was very impressed from the very moment I walked in the hostesses were kind and the management was kind and my server Aaron was absolutely wonderful! I was here on Monday May 26th at around 4:00 p.m.“

“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!“

“We had a birthday dinner at Pistone's, and everyone in attendance enjoyed the experience. Our host reminded me of the travel writer/TV host, Rick Steves. (If your lucky to have him wait on you, you'll know what I mean.) He was so gracious and very patient and attentive to all. The food was delicious. We enjoyed appetizers of caprese and bruschetta prosciutto, and entrees of gnocchi, spaghetti carbonara, eggplant parmigiana, and a margarita pizza . You cannot go wrong by ordering the eggplant parmigiana, it is fantastic! Mangia!

Vegetarian options: The kitchen prepared a dish upon request without meat. It was still delicious.

Wheelchair accessibility: I was able to wheel one of our party into the restaurant. There are two sets of doors, you might want a second set of hands to make this easier.“

“Came here with my family and my server was Brayden. He was very nice and helpful with everything made sure we had everything we needed. Food was excellent i loved the pizza. Food and Service was a A+“

“I was looking for some food before going to the Curio game store next door and saw that this restaurant had an Italian sub with mortadella! I think all real Italian subs should have mortadella but none of the others do, some deli's don't even know what it is! My Italian sub was delicious! Thank you guys!
Great first time experience!“

“A spacious Olive Garden location that offers all the familiar Italian dishes the chain is known for.

The service we received at this location was lack lusty but the food was delicious and we left satisfied with our meal.

I enjoy paying on the mobile kiosk to save time.

There is plenty of free parking in the adjacent parking structure. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible.“

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

“good food and good employees 👌“
