22 Best Italian Restaurants in Grand Rapids

“Grant was phenomenal. My wife was looking forward to the meatballs in the spaghetti. He went out of his way to make sure she could have them as they're having difficulties getting supplies. Made sure for our takeout that there was extra supplies. Very personable. Love Palios! Highly recommend“

“I had a wedding rehersal dinner that exceeded expectations. Hailee our hostess was the best ever at making guest feel at home. It set the tone for the weekend. Guest were treated to a 5 course plated dinner menu. If you live in the Grand Rapids, MI area, make this a stop for true italian cuisine. Thank you Hailee and Molly for making our dinner experience so pleasurable.“

“Our first time trying Greco's. The Pizza and Breadsticks were delicious. My only complaint is I ordered two extra sauces and I ensured she heard me. She even repeated it back to me as well. My husband picked up the order and they told him the extra sauces were in the boxes (also on the reciept). He didn't check and trusted them and they were not. Disappointed as we ran out of sauce for our breadsticks. We will still order again most likely.“

“First time here and we really enjoyed it. The bruschetta was super good. I had the confit chicken rotini pasta that had pesto and pine nuts. Not very much chicken or pine nuts on the dish for a $24 meal but it was really tasty. My husband has the salmon and said it was really good as well. We both enjoyed our wine and some gelato. We will return! Service was great and it was a nice atmosphere! Just took one star away because it was a little on the pricey side. 2 glasses of wine, 1 appetizer, 2 meals, and some gelato was over $100.“

“Delicious pizza, my kid gave them 11 stars!“

“The best pizza around my dad showed me this restaurant. It's got the best pizza I've ever had and the team there is great Gino and the rest of the team are always so great to visit with they have real genuine ingredients in everything that they do.“

“We went for brunch on Easter and everything was perfect…from the drinks to the atmosphere to the food and especially the service! Our server Shelby was impeccable and we loved her! Highly recommend!!!“

“Walking by and spontaneously decided to get a pizza to take back to the hotel (Tuesday evening 5:30) . The host kindly directly me to the takeout counter. The very friendly young man took my order, everything came out perfectly. I was glad he offered utensils because I forgot to ask. We got the thin crust pepperoni - it was fantastic! Crispy edges, nice cheesy pull, great taste. Very glad we stopped. Great service and food!“

“We ordered two mediums while visiting Grand Rapids. It was very delicious and good fresh ingredients. Better priced than chain pizza places too! We would recommend for any traveling through the area to eat here!“

“I went to this olive garden with a few of my friends and the waitress we had was absolutely hilarious. Alyssa was super humorous and personable and was so transparent about everything going on in the kitchen. She helped us through working the kiosk while taking our order and explained we were supposed to check out on them. The four of use unanimously decided we hated the kiosks and thought we were better served by the waitress because the kiosk were a hassle. If it were up to me I would remove them entirely because they took away from the olive garden experience. New employees should learn from Alyssa's serving skills because she's incredibly talented and delivered a very pleasurable experience at Olive Garden.“

“Another great GR restaurant. We've been in twice now. If you find seats at the bar while waiting for your table expect prompt friendly service. They are definitely on top of things. Table service has been a bit mixed. Sometimes it's great sometimes you wait 15 min for salt and pepper when it's not busy enough to warrant that. On our first visit we had a delightful server, Jordan. She was a great help to me communicating with the kitchen and exploring some dinner options that I could have with my allergies. We started with the Focaccia. For dinner I decided to go with the Rigatoni w/the sauce from the Ravioli as it was allergy friendly. The sauce was nice and not sweet thankfully. I've had this dish a few times and the only thing I can say is that the Pasta is a little too Al Dente even for this Italian girl. My husband went with the Rustica Pizza. He liked it but wasn't blown away. He also ordered the Bolognese on a different night. He thought it was more of a meat sauce than a traditional Bolognese which has less tomato to it. He did enjoy it though. Cocktails and Wine selection are good. Definitely going to keep this in our rotation“

“hilights as always is the food. big portions and Great flavor. ask for Shawna when being seated, one of the best waitress in G.R. Enza and Sam are super owners and will make sure your visit is enjoyable.“

“A wonderful and excellent experience. Delicious food and the attention from our waiter Garrett it was extraordinary!“

“Been trying to find a good pizza in the area for over 6 months and I finally found it. Great flavor, nice customer service, and fast delivery. Will be ordering from here again!“

“The best taste pizza (all the food are sooo good)I have ever tried in Grand Rapids!!! Looks normal, but unbelievable rich taste. Even my son's kids-menu ice cream surprised me. A touch of sweetness, but very rich milk flavor. I am planning to come regularly in the future. Amazing food, and very attentive service too. So good ?.“

“some of the best pizza in GR with great staff that always make you feel like you're part of the crew. You can't beat the prices they have for the quality“

“Best beef we’ve had outside of Chicago“

“Stopped in for a late lunch/ early dinner, was seated right away. Our server Troy was immediate, attentive, and thoughtful. All dishes delivered quickly and at appropriate times. Food was hot and delicious! Kudos to Troy for separating our entrees before they reached the table, as we shared meals. All in all a very nice and pleasant experience!“

“Had so much fun here for my birthday. Food and drinks are excellent and vibe is eclectic and fun. The live music was also top notch!“

“more on the expensive side but it’s always excellent pizza. If you are a veteran you get a discount but riding with the app does not have an option to apply the discount. the work around is use the app but select pain at store. when you get there let them know you are.vet and they will adjust the price before you pay. Famous deep dish corners is great too“

“Best NY style slice I think I’ve ever had. I’ve been in the pizza review game for a few years and that perfectly cooked crunchy crust, with the sweet sauce and fresh motz. It was cooked perfectly and I almost want to cry when I realize it’s all gone. You guys know how to make pizza and it shows in the product. I’m giving Florine’s a solid 9.4 out of 10“

“Great food and great service!“
