23 Best Italian Restaurants in Birmingham

“Wonderful food and awesome service!“

“Always consistently delicious food and great service. One of my top 5 Birmingham restaurants!“

“Every visit = perfection. The service is impeccable and the food is delicious. You can’t go wrong with the Burrata, Kale Caesar, and Calamari!“

“The food was amazing!! Our waitress was not good. I go to lunch with friends once a month. For me good conversation and good food is important. Restaurants that don't have any soft surfaces to absorb sound are very loud. We could not hear others across the table. If the restaurant ever decided to improve noise reduction I'd be a regular. The food was really exceptional which is not easy to find in Birmingham.“

“We have gone to Freddy’s many times and always had an amazing experience! The service is always amazing, the wine plentiful, and the food delicious and consistent. We had a party for my husband’s birthday this past weekend and were so impressed by the execution of service. If you want to be truly taken care of, come to Freddy’s!“

“Excellent food and service 😊“

“Went to Amore tonight for our anniversary dinner. Our waiter, Robert, was outstanding explaining the specials of the day and suggesting a great wine which really complimented our dinner of shrimp and lobster linguine which was cooked to perfection. Our dessert of crème brûlée was spectacular! The best meal we have had in a while and I highly recommend Amore for a truly enjoyable experience.“

“I have been looking for an authentic Italian restaurant since I left my home town in Italy and I finally found Le’ Fresca! I felt like I was home again! Marco, the food and his staff are amazing! Highly recommend going there! We’ll be going back very often!“

“My first time at Bellini's and it has a lovely atmosphere. We had one in our party with a red meat allergy. Someone other than our waitress brought the food out and when she came back to the table she was very concerned and conscientious, making sure the correct plate was delivered to the correct diner. We also had a 19 month old with us and our waitress was so sweet to accommodate the baby as well. There was just enough crowd noise that we didn't feel like our toddler was disturbing anyone. The food was delicious all around. We will definitely be back.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First Visit – Absolutely Incredible! The atmosphere was cozy and elegant, and the staff made us feel right at home from the start. But the highlight of the night? The food—hands down some of the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. Every bite was full of rich, authentic flavor, and you can tell the ingredients are top-quality. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. This place is a true gem and we’re already planning our next visit. If you haven’t been yet you’re missing out!“

“Amazing. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Birmingham. The freshest, hand-made pastas with wonderful ingredients, to the Roman style pizza, daily soups, and crave-able desserts will keep you coming back for more! The service is top notch too. Love their delivery option. Perfect every order! *get the daily special! *daily soups are a MUST! Ragu is insane.... Cacio Pepe.... Heck, it's all fantastic!“

“Love this place! My favorite place to eat in Trussville. Service, food, price have always been wonderful!“

“Wonderful staff, great food and family owned! What a great combination.“

“First dining experience with the food truck tonight at Irondale’s Fun Day at the Tracks. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! I had the chicken bacon ranch pizza taco. Everything was fresh, the chicken was tender and the pizza wrap was perfectly toasted. Soft enough to fold, crispy enough to bite! My only complaint is why haven’t I eaten there before!! Is there a more than 5 star rating??? 🏆“

“Fantastic food. Great atmosphere. The pasta…. Every variation 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼.“

“This us our favorite O.G although it's about a 90 min drive and today's visit was another awesome one, Mary is a FABULOUS server, so attentive, kind and helpful. When we come back (in the next 2 weeks) I will be asking for her section. Thank you!“

“Great food and exceptional service. The best Tiramisu I’ve ever eaten. You have to check them out.“

“The absolute best deli sandwiches in town! Family owned since the early 70’s and I’m pretty sure none of the recipes have changed!! Try the Rich man’s Poboy (you can thank me later)!!“

“AMAZING!! Fresh ingredients, great combination of flavors and the bread was outstanding! Highly recommend“

“Came here with my daughter for my birthday, we had Amber as our server who was exceptional! She helped us choose a fun drink to celebrate, food was wonderful, and she gave us a free tiramasu for my birthday. Go see Amber at North Italia!!“

“Hubs was craving pizza tonight so we thought we’d try something new & we were not disappointed at all! Friendly people, good food & great atmosphere! We will make the trip back soon!!“
