46 Best Italian Restaurants near West Allis

“Great place for dinner. Food delicious!!!!“

“As a patron of Caterina's Ristorante and having traveled the world and enjoyed many different cuisines, the taste of Italy's cuisine at Caterina's is a true epicurean experience along with a service level that is as good as it gets, in my humble opinion it is as good as it gets. The value, the portions, the attentiveness, the cocktails are superb, and 2nd to none. Whatever the occasion is, you and your guest will encounter a dining experience that is memorable, and quite tasteful.“

“everyone there is always very friendly. we love eating there“

“Excellent meal! So happy we tried this cute place! Highly recommend!“

“Nice little spot with good service and great food!“

“We got our 1st pizza from Cataro’s Pizza last night at 11:15pm after seeing the band Without Annette at Da Bar nearby. We were hungry so we searched pizza open late near me. That’s how we found this amazing pizza. The owner had closed the dining room early because business has been so slow but he offered to make us one to go. It was so good! I highly recommend this place. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I went in person to order my pizza because i was near by. Pizza only took like 15min to be ready. But their entrance, floor and carpet and ordering area is dirty. Filled with grease and flour. Young boys at the front are very nice and polite.“

“Fried zucchini and steaks are very good so is the spaghetti very friendly people“

“Excellent food excellent service Nice change to have a professional serve us and a professional cooked food highly recommended this restaurant“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we walked in, everything was exceptional. The wine selection was fantastic, and every dish we ordered exceeded our expectations. The eggplant appetizer was absolutely fabulous, and my stuffed filet was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. What impressed me most was that the kitchen customized my entrée on a busy Saturday night—something you rarely see, even at high-end restaurants. My best friend ordered the Frutti di Mare, and it was outstanding as well. The portion sizes were very generous, and we both left completely satisfied. What truly sets Safina apart is the ownership and service. Both owners came to our table multiple times throughout the evening to make sure everything was perfect. They were even helping bus tables and assisting the staff. That level of hands-on hospitality is something you simply don't see very often, even at many five-star restaurants. The food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail were all top-notch. Safina has earned loyal customers in us, and we can't wait to come back! Bonus: Sal is awesome!!!!“

“My food was absolutely delicious. I went for brunch and ordered the El Mexicano Bowl. I highly recommend this place. It’s nice to see a great restaurant finally take over the old Trocadero building.“

“Just ate here with my girlfriend's and it was very good. service was excellent and food was delicious! Adding some pics“

“Our third time and the anniversary couple's first time (55 years!) and we were all thoroughly impressed! The food is so authentic - better than any dish we had when we visited Italy! Made with love and fresh ingredients, served by staff who care, and presentation and waitstaff well worth the price. This is not inexpensive, but for any meal with ambiance, and never disappointing, I recommend it highly. Five star everything. We cannot say enough. Thank you for contributing a wonderful Italian option in Tosa area.“

“Very good food, great service. Drove 45 mins out of my way to try this place, will be back!“

“Staff was very attentive. Food was fantastic. My only complaint is the price, but you certainly get plenty of food for what you pay.“

“Cannot say enough about the food, the staff and the ambiance. Whether it is pregame, post-game, special night out, day drinking and dining or late night cocktails and dinner after a late flight this place never, ever disappoints. Its been that way for years and hope it never changes.“

“an amazing dining experience! food and wine list on point, and the atmosphere is amazing! 10 out of 10 would recommend!“

“Great stuffed pizza. One of our favorite restaurants for many years.“

“We had the best service with Lisa this past Wednesday late evening! She was excellent and recommended the best Swordfish Special and pizza for the picky! Go and see her and eat something special!“

“There is nothing that I did not like about tonight's experience. The atmosphere was lovely. The service was fantastic and friendly. The food was delicious. The wine was divine. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cheesy garlic bread 👍Salad was fresh and tasty. Generous portion. Steak speidini with angel hair pasta was perfect. TIRAMISU was one of the best I can remember. GRAZIE 🇮🇹“

“One of Milwaukee’s better pizzas but the coldest dining room of all! I give the pizza an 8. Pizza flops, crust could be stiffer.“

“delicious food, large portions, friendly staff“

“The overall experience is amazing. The waitstaff, chefs, owners, and sommeliers all make you feel welcome. Each make sure you have an experience to remember. We love sitting at the chef’s counter. Each visit is different and always a great time.“

“Delicious pizza with great service! Highly recommend!“

“I had heard great things and had never been. Was heading to see a show at the Marcus Center last night and we opted for dinner here. Being a foodie, I had asked for recommendations in some of my foodie groups. I heard the meatball appetizer was a must have. It wasn’t on the menu for some reason, and I’m glad I asked as Frank, our awesome bartender/server who is in the family didn’t realize it wasn’t. I have zero idea how you get meatballs light, fluffy, not dense, but these were them. And the sauce! Beyond fresh, light, and delicious. Eggplant Parmesan fries were also super light and served with the same delicious sauce. And then the pasta… Capellini alla Caprese (which was Frank’s recommendation). From their menu: “Handmade angel hair pasta tossed with sweet Roma tomatoes, genuine Prosciutto di Parma ham and an Italian soffritto (olive oil, onion and garlic), finished in a light chardonnay-cream sauce and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.” This was also super clean, light, and just delectable. The bruschetta appetizer we did not order, but the people next to us did, and I asked to take a pic. It looked amazing, and the girls eating it absolutely raved. The tiramisu - not much to say other than chefs kiss! I literally want to go back and try everything on their menu. This was for sure one of my favorite new (to me) places and I will be back for sure! Also a shoutout to the other bartender Shea… she was an absolute gem. All of the staff we met were super friendly and helpful. Love places like this!“

“Had a lovely dinner. Service and food were excellent and the 3 for $35 is a great value. We enjoyed our evening“

“Nadi Plates came highly recommended on our venue's preferred vendor list, and after working with them, we would confidently recommend them to anyone getting married in the Milwaukee or Southeast Wisconsin area.

The team was wonderful to work with leading up to the big day. We met with them multiple times in Milwaukee to prepare, and they worked extensively with us to accommodate all of our guests' dietary restrictions, which gave us huge peace of mind.

The food itself tasted absolutely amazing, especially the Rigatoni Pasta course and the late-night pizza at the end of the evening. Because they made all the food fresh on the premises, they never ran out of a single thing and were able to remain completely responsive to our guests' tastes and preferences throughout the night.

If you want phenomenal wedding catering and a team that genuinely cares about your guests, please consider hiring them.“

“Absolutely great Italian market. I definitely love all their sandwiches and their pastries are phenomenal. I only wish it was closer to my house.“

“I was here today & had a fantastic Milwaukee pizza, garlic bread & a glass of wine! I was shocked to see how big it was inside! It’s also very nice & I can’t wait to use the outdoor patio when warmer! Rob was so accommodating & helped me to my car with my food as I’m disabled! Can’t say enough about this place!! The whole area has been revitalized & is really beautiful!! Thank you for an enjoyable dinner!!“

“Great discovery of a great pizza place!“

“Classic Italian done right!“

“Worked at Armelis many many years ago. Had a craving for it tonight and it’s exactly how I remember it from 15+ years ago! My husband had it for the first time and said “WHY HAVENT WE ORDERED FROM HERE BEFORE?!” So we will definitely be ordering again!“

“We often dine at Olive Garden. We have always enjoyed the food and service. Today was somewhat disappointing. It was raining pretty hard outside and as I entered the foyer of course there is going to be a wet floor, I slipped and almost fell. Luckily I caught myself. Three hostesses look and never tried to help or ask me if I was okay. On that note they never even greeted us as they were too busy talking. I said maybe someone should wipe up the water on the floor or move the mats closer to the door. No response. When we were being seated I saw a manager and mentioned it to him. He was also very disinterested, also. I hope nobody falls, especially the few older people with canes and walkers who were dining. Thank goodness for our server Jason who made our dining experience very enjoyable. VERY disappointed with the rest of your staff!!!“

“Our food and service was amazing! There was a worker organizing silverware near us that was extremely noisy and distracting from our conversation and the live music. We mentioned this to our server and he took care of it immediately and gave us complimentary dessert for the inconvenience which we did not expect. That was a very nice gesture. We would definitely go back again. Very nice place for a date night.“

“Absolutely fantastic. I ordered on a whim , en route home from work. I never heard of the place before , but it slapped harder than nonna with a hot spoon. The food was ready before the pick up time. And it was phenomenal. Would smash again. Definitely. 🤌🏻🤌🏻“

“I absolutely love Ann’s! Pizza, fettuccine, lasagna are all delicious. Last night I had Ann’s penne with chicken and it’s my new favorite! Our waiter, Logan, was amazing also! Definitely a must check out!“

“Expensive and delicious :-)“

“I grew up eating Pietro’s Pizza. It was the only place my family would eat pizza from. 30 years later I got to enjoy a delicious pizza. It was like taking a step back into my childhood. Love, love the pizza.“

“Juan our server did a great job. Excellent service and the food was delicious“

“We went to Stella Van Buren for a date night and had such a wonderful evening! ❤️
First, a little tip if you’re visiting: the restaurant is located on the 3rd floor of The Westin Hotel, so we recommend using the valet parking. It’s only $10, which makes things much easier.
We started with an Old Fashioned, which was amazing! I also had their version of a Cosmopolitan, and it was absolutely delicious. 🍸
For appetizers, we had the meatballs and spicy tuna—both were fantastic! Then we finished the night with tiramisu and chocolate tart, and they were so, so good. 🍰
Everything from the drinks and food to the service made our date night really special. Thank you, Stella Van Buren, for a great evening! We truly enjoyed it and will definitely be back. ❤️“

“I once owned an award-winning take & bake company on Hilton Head Island, so I am a self-admitted pizza snob. The take & bake pizza at Scardina Specialties is the only pizza I’ve found that is as good as the ones we made. Definitely give this one a try!“

“Delicious Italian American cuisine!!!!!“

“My daughter took me to lunch and we encountered the manager (Jason) who seated us. A very, very pleasant person! I ordered calamari and chicken Marsala, both so salty I couldn't eat it and I informed staff. I did bag it and bring it home. My daughter had the spinach artichoke dip and mushroom ravioli in which both were excellent. I wasn't looking for free food, I just wanted them to know how salty the food was. We paid for everything and then the manager came over a few minutes later and offered a gift card. That was so nice of him. I do want to give kudos to the manager (Jason) he has a great personality for the position he holds. I hope I have the manager's right name. I will visit again..“

“My best friend and I have been visiting for 8+ years, since we were 14/15 years old! The fusilli is our absolute favorite, and we never go without a cheeseboard or the flourless chocolate cake. We have always had great service and it has made every celebration worth visiting Onestos! ❤️“

“While I’ve been here before, this was my partners first time, this experience wouldn’t have been 5 billion stars without Hudson (the best server we’ve ever had). He made our anniversary special, engaging and attentive to us throughout the night.

We’ll definitely return!

Also - Hudson, thank you, and the Sala team, for the anniversary card. We have a card for you too (upright)!“
