Italian Restaurants near Hurstbourne

“I was having a really bad day and stopped in for some lunch. The entire staff was amazing. Had an amazing time and met some really great people. They all need big raises and full benefits! You can't find people to work like them these days.“

“The food and service at Volare never disappoints!“

“Very friendly people. The restaurant setting is really nice and clean. I didn't feel rushed when I was ordering. All the food looks and smells amazing. Definitely recommend to anyone.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch with my wife. The service and food were fantastic. Our Server Jennaliegh was super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Everyone we met was friendly!!!“

“I lived in Naples Italy for two years and this is the first pizza I’ve had that’s as good as what I had there. Congratulations on wonderful Pizza at Lupo’s.“

“This place hands down the best pizza place in town! They make you feel like you’re part of their family! You get more than just great food, you also get great service and wonderful conversation!!!“

“Amazing Italian comfort food, can't wait to come back.“

“Was picking up some ingredients and decided to grab lunch. 4 stars solely because the chicken parm sandwich was not their best creation. It's a warm sandwich and the flavors just were not there for me. It got a little soggy and I think my picky eater gene just turned on. I think I'll stick with cold sandwiches from them. I did finally get to try their focaccia, and OH MY GOODNESS. Why did no one tell me that I would sell my soul for a piece of garlic-y bread?? Their garlic focaccia has got to be the best one. It does have large chunks of cooked garlic in it, so if you are not a garlic girl I would maybe try the plainer ones. Also picked up some cannolis-- I'm not sure how frozen cannolis manage to stay so crispy and crunchy but they do. I seriously love this place, whether I'm picking up individual ingredients or grabbing lunch, it's such an amazing spot to go to.“

“Great pizza shop! Very thin crust, good quality cheese and a local place with an extremely friendly owner. It was a tad salty for my taste, but I also tend to be a bit sensitive with that.Overall I would definitely recommend it and get a takeout pizza again!“

“Had a large party. Lots of different entrees & apps. All looked amazing & those I tasted were delicious. If you haven't been, try it!!!“

“One of, if not the best bourbon bar in the country.It's a museum that you can drink with some of the best bartenders in the business. The food menu is spot on. The cocktails are all superb and the knowledge of the staff tops this place off.You can go to this incredible venue to just stare at the collection... or spend a bit and actually try it.I cant even remember all the drinks I've had here... but I've never had a bad experience.This is a must go to spot if you're in the Louisville area... or a bourbon aficionado.“

“Absolutely tremendous food!! A bit off the beaten pathway but 100% worth it!“

“I had never heard of this restaurant until a family member from out of state sent me a link as a suggestion to cater our grandson’s first birthday party. We were expecting 80 people (adults and children) - he is a miracle baby and this was a big celebration! We wanted to make sure there was enough food that both adults and children would enjoy. Paula was so patient and gracious to us as we went back and forth about what we wanted, even changing the menu at the last minute. She was also extremely helpful and gave us the perfect suggestions for a crowd our size, with something for everyone. She even made a low sodium option for my husband who is on a renal diet. We ended up with two pasta dishes and two kinds of panini sliders, with garlic bread bites and a complimentary tray of cookies. Everything was incredibly delicious, and we had tons of food! Everyone raved about it and commented it was like food at a wedding reception. The panini sliders were a huge hit! This is not your typical Italian food - it is high quality cuisine, and you can tell it is “made with love” as my husband says - and very reasonably priced especially for the quality. Lastly, Paula’s husband, Anthony, delivered the meal all the way to Bernheim Forest where we had the event. We were running behind and it was so chaotic when he got there - but he was so gracious and helpful, and even brought a birthday gift Paula had gotten for our grandson! Our entire experience with them was wonderful. They served us well, and we’ll definitely go back. They are busy, so if you don’t get a call back, be patient - it will be well worth the wait!“

“the food was yummy n the staff was very nice place. can’t wait to go back“

“Birthday for Granddaughter!! Did not disappoint!! Service was Wonderful !!Food excellent.“

“Great pizza. Great Crust. Great prices. Will be back. You gotta try it!“

“When I lived in Louisville I ate here about four times a week for lunch. I was so happy to come back and see Gary and everybody this weekend. Hands down the best pizza joint in America.“

“I've been coming here for 20+ years and the food is constantly consistent for their main dishes —chicken and salmon. The cost had gone up significantly and the portions have decreased. The add-on price if you request anything extra is new as well.“

“Some of the best pizza I've eaten came from Coals. The ambience is as good as the food! Their prices are in line with what you get and they have a good selection of beers, cocktails, wines, and sodas. We'll definitely recommend and return to Coals. Great food!Kid-friendliness: Great place to take behaved kids.“

“Amazing friendly staff and exquisite food.“

“Has a fresh and tasty pizza. The wings are just as good with great sauces. If you like bourbon they also have a broad enough selection too.Vegetarian options: It's pizza and you can have a vegetarian option or build your own. For Italian style dishes it can be hard, but there are some other vegetarian options too.Kid-friendliness: They have pizza, how is that not kid friendly. Also there's enough seating for families.Wheelchair accessibility: It's all 1 level with low bumps so wheelchairs, walkers, etc can all have access.“

“This is a good place to visit great customer service thanks to Anthony outdone himself took care of everything I needed.“

“This was our first time ever ordering pizza from here and it was a great experience. I ordered via text and it was easy. I ordered two 8 square deep turbo pizzas and they both were delicious. Took them to a party and everyone that ate some love it. Crispy delicious crust! I would have taken a picture but we all ate it pretty quick. I'll definitely be back.“

“Solid pizza place. Their green chili chicken pizza is my fav, I would rate that alone 5 stars. We were lucky enough to be seated in a room that was quieter than the main dining area, and that made it so easy to have conversation and enjoy the ambiance.“

“2024 Update: Still a popular restaurant in Middletown. The entire staff are so nice & friendly & the food is yummy!!!Coals Artisan Pizza in Middletown is a favorite. The pizza are cooked in "coal-fired oven", which makes a uniquely lighter tasting crust. There are lots of great choices & many different toppings offered. The pizzas are regionally named for Louisville Metro area neighborhoods. Our favorite pizzas include the "Middletown, Crescent Hill & Brownsboro pizzas". There is a nice dining room, outdoor patio and a party room which can be reserved which has a large TV that accommodates up to 40 people. There is a nice wine list and excellent local draft beers choices as well.Highly recommend & as always the staff do a great job.“

“Ate lunch at southside of Louisville Kentucky. Very friendly and very clean. Debbie S. Is great. She took our order and brought it to us with fresh breadsticks. She was running the front of the restaurant ( by herself) and had everything under control. I wanted to share and hope the company is aware of her exceptional service. Cooks are great too. Food was fresh and hot. Wish we had this where we lived.“

“We had a great time! Every dish that we ordered came out perfect. Our waitress was very attentive and her recommendations were spot on. The owner was super friendly and he even shared a little history about the restaurant. The bartender was hilarious and you can tell he takes pride in his craft.“

“This restaurant is AWESOME not only in terms of atmosphere from the time you walk through the front doors and smell the atmosphere of Italian cuisine. The food gives you full variety and delicious. Your waiter or waitress has been trained to be the best. I'm rating this restaurant a 10 because for an Italian restaurant it gives you full variety of food and drinks. David M“

“This is a great little neighborhood eatery that features panini, pizza, sandwiches and some larger entrees. The food is carefully crafted, the service friendly and attentive. There is a decent beer list, a good wine list and specialty coffees on offer. Don't miss the frites, deep fried to perfection!“

“The food is always delicious“

“Really a great spot. We were there in between lunch and 5pm so it wasn't busy. The beer was cold and the appetizers were hot. Really good toasted ravioli. And the service was perfect. Worth going out of your way to eat and kick back for.“

“Last 2 curbside visits have been very very wonderful, I really appreciate how lovely the customer service is and how they have been going above and beyond to make us happy. Thank you! Food was hot and fresh! The employee he was super friendly and fast very attentive and atmosphere is always great when we visit inside this location.“

“First time customer from Mt. Washington looking for something different. We ordered the grilled buffalo on thin crust and meatball on hand tossed by pick up. Pizza was ready upon arrival and the staff was friendly. Good pizza with the right amount of sauce so it's not messy. We will be returning for dinner on the patio.“

“Great food and service. Pizza slice is a great value.“

“I go to the one on Hubbard's Lane and this is the best pizza in the city.“

“I love Martini's The food and company are spectacular. I have tried. a mixture of many dishes and they all have been wonderful. The wait staff is fabulous and friendly. Jason an s Kya are incredible. They make me feel like one of the family. It is worth every penny!!!“

“Arrived at the Barstown Rd location near Kroger's store. The menu was huge, from standard pizza, deep dish crust and BUILD YOUR OWN Options with all kinds of cheese and toppings. We got the chicken BBQ Deep dish, it was the BEST IN LOUISVILLE. TRY IT, YOU'LL LOVE IT.“

“Fantastic service from employees! Love BEARNO’S!!! Highly recommend“

“Wow--my son and his friends did a scavenger hunt for his birthday. Jet's was the lunch stop. Not only did the employees let me write a clue in the pizza box, they gave him a bonus dessert with the order. So kind, thoughtful, and special. Thank you!!Oh, and the pizza tasted great!“

“Even though I arrived late, I received GREAT SERVICE and FELT WELCOMED by my Server. (Please forgive me I am horrible at remembering names, it's the onset of Dementia). She was a delight, and did not make me feel the need to hurry. Upon leaving the Management seemed a little put out. However, they did not speak down to me. No words, just a little show in actions! And I could have been wrong! But that's fine. I just remember Years ago, when you "shopped or went out to a fine Restaurant for a nice Dinner", employees did not stand with disgusted looks on their face when it was 30 minutes before closing. Now employees act as if they are doing you a favor if they help you, or if it was closing time they were polite in saying it was time to close. Now it's "if you're not in line you will not be checked out"!!!! Usually said in a very harsh voice! Stores are not doing YOU a favor YOU are doing them a favor buying in that store". I will not tolerate that treatment, but many will. This is NOT the case of the Olive Garden. It was a nice diner and Server I will return. I'm“

“I am in love with their gluten-free crust. It is crispy and very close to what a regular for crust feels and tastes like. They always ask me if it is because of an allergy, and since it is, it's very important to me that they take this allergy seriously. Such a variety of toppings and styles of pizza. Service is always good!“

“I've never bought a pizza here that wasn't delicious! Try before you listen to the negative reviews!!!“

“Great food and service, waiter was very good and food was delicious“
