50 Best Italian Restaurants near Medfield

“Having dined at Basil Restaurant last night, I must say the ambiance was top-notch. The dim lighting and cozy seating made for a pleasant atmosphere. However, the service was a bit slow, as it took quite some time for our food to arrive. Nonetheless, when the dishes finally made their way to our table, they were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the basil-infused pasta, which was bursting with flavor. The prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food, but I do wish the portions were a tad larger. Overall, Basil Restaurant offers a decent dining experience with room for improvement in service efficiency.“

“This is the go-to pizza place in Medfield, but I think it is under appreciated for its other food. The curly fries here are amazing - crispy and always hot. The pizza is okay, but nothing crazy, it’s a little thin and dry. I would recommend getting one of the sandwiches and definitely the fries. Get the fries.“

“Amazing birthday dinner for my husband today! We had chicken Parm and veggie pizza (no cheese I'm vegan). Best part our server Scott! He is amazing, attentive. Remembered what I like to drink from the last time I was in. Will be back! Hope you will too“

“Everything about Jinnys is perfect! From the food to the drinks to the staff! Unique pizza combinations that need no substitutions - and they really don't even allow them! I love this Newton Centre staple. The menu changes based on seasonal ingredients but there are a few constants - so there is always a reason to come back and try something new!“

“This place is the best authentic Italian restaurant in the area, hands down. You won't find chicken parm on the menu, which is perfect in my opinion. The service is awesome because it's a family business and they all genuinely care. The ambiance reminds me of a typical place you would find in one of the little hill towns in Italy. The chef and owner will accommodate any requests within reason! Love this place!“

“This place is an absolute gem. The employees are extremely friendly and welcoming. My family has just recently moved to the area and have eaten here a few times. Every time the food has been top notch. I highly recommend this place to anyone who lives nearby or stops in for a meal ???“

“There are subs and then there are Lola's subs, second to none in my opinion. Always completely stuffed, you can always get two meals out of one, unless you're me of course. Their freezer section is always stocked with such great stuff to take home too. I have to say though, the real star here though is the standing they make, to die for!“

“Luciano is still actively involved in the restaurants' operation and he makes the rounds through the dining area ensuring that all his guests are attended to. The food is always amazingly good, my wife and I always go there for our special dates, in this case our 61th anniversary. I have had many meals all different and all have exceeded my expectations. we actually held our son's wedding rehearsal dinner there, everyone had a great meal and enjoyed the evening. You can't go wrong with taking your favorite date to Luciano's you both will be delighted by the attentive staff and the quality of the cuisine.“

“Thought the waiter was top notch, we had 14 people in our party, a few provided feedback on what they ordered. The fish tacos were underwhelming, lacked flavor as did the chicken Marcello which was very bland. The fish and chips were a big surprise, large portion of fish, rather than the typical large portion of fries! My seafood with angle hair pasta was good, but a bit too much oil, and scollops were slightly over cooked, but I would order it again.“

“Saw a neighbor post about this spot recently and checked it out for dinner - delicious! The service is excellent - the folks I spoke to were all kind and conversational, the food was ready quickly and it was hot and delicious! It's hard to find non-Greek pizza in the area and it's a fabulous option to have handy. The buffalo chicken pizza and bread sticks were the star of our meal - can't wait to go back!“

“Giovanni’s takes the definition of amazing, phenomenal, out of this world- and tops it times 1,000,000. The Greek Salad Wrap with Chicken absolutely healed my heart, soul, and muscles with the amount of chicken, they did not skimp! But nothing on the menu would disappoint you. Literally… nothing. Brian is truly the epitome of what a business owner should be. Customer service is top notch. GO TO GIOVANNIS AND FIND YOUR NEW FAVORITE PIZZA PLACE!“

“Food was delicious! We had a little bit of everything since my whole family decided we wanted some sandwiches. We ordered 2 Italian sandwiches, 2 pizzas, 1 cheeseburger, chicken wings and fries, and a ready to go pasta. Needless to say everyone had a piece of everything. My family loved the food and can’t wait to come back!“

“I would say the food and the service are very good. We came here for the first time after having a bad experience in another Italian restaurant in Norwood. We can't complain. Food is always fresh, the hostesses are pleasant and make you feel welcomed. Thank you!“

“Unparalleled customer service. You won’t find a restaurant where you feel more taken care of (well except their sister restaurants in Waltham and Juniper in Wellesley). I’ve never seen my mom eat so much at a restaurant before. Whatever the wait time is - WAIT - it’s worth it!“

“First time I tried the pizza by Pizza by Rocco and let me tell you guys, I absolutely loved it , the sauce taste amazing it was cooked just about right not burned or light cook like most places , just on point , I will definitely be coming back and I have my eyes on the Buffalo chicken on next ?Good job keep it up guys ??“

“The food has always been excellent and the service, impeccable. I've met the owner several times throughout the years and he is just a very kind, welcoming man. As is the entire staff. Always look forward to going to my favorite restaurant in Framingham!“

“First time going on a whim we were looking for a place and this popped up. The first thing I asked is this north shore roast beef the very friendly person behind the counter did not hesitate and said a resounding yes. I ordered a super beef 3 way and it was delicious the only slight if the beef was just a little warmer it would be 10 of 10 but 9.5 is still great.“

“This place is outrageous. They have the best pizza it is so hot and crispy. It is impeccable.It is so immaculate I definitely recommend this place if you want to satisfy your tummyThis place has such nice prices and they have the best employees“

“Good afternoon, I had called the place an order for a chicken Parm sub and two cookies, and it was close to closing. I truly apologize for not getting there in time and happy you make the food. My wife’s tire popped on route 9 and she called me to change it. Please forgive me for not getting there in time. I am still going to pay for the food. Once again, I truly apologize.“

“I’m live on the north shore and finally made it down to Capella. Shame on me for waiting so long. It was worth the drive! If you don’t like driving but are ever in the area, make it a point to stop in. If you live in that area and haven’t been.. GO! The rigatoni with vodka sauce is fantastic and the Chicken parm is one of the best. I can’t wait to go back and try the lobster fusilli dish. The owner/chef Rob is on the floor in the kitchen at all times overseeing each order. His team and staff are top notch. Highly recommend!“

“Good food, there weren't a lot of options for people with dietary restrictions though. It has gotten a lot easier to eat out with a dairy/nut allergy lately so I was surprised at the limitation, especially at such a central location. Our server was very attentive and didn't rush us at all, even though we stayed until close. He was great.“

“My sister and I decided to dine out. And we had amazing time last night. It started with the atmosphere. Inside the restaurant was beautiful . Our waitress was Kimberly S. She was friendly and professional. I'm a foodie.... So let talk about food?? So, I had salad name Insalata di Spinaci was so gooood delicious. Short Rib Gnocchi was my main course. My first time trying it. Beautiful presentation. But don't like the texture. I know That it would be so soft. Kimberly S ask do I like it and I told her no. But I will keep it. Because I don't them to wasted. So she went and told Dami. Dami is the The manager at the restaurant. She came and asked again can she get me something different I explain to her why Im willing to keep it . As I just came back from a mission in South Africa. And saw some many people without food. And it breaks my heart to waste food. She understood my feeling and allow me to take the food to give to a homeless person. Then, Dami convinced me to get a different pasta dish name Fettuccine alla Bolognese. This was so good and I was very happy that she convince me to try it. ?? So my sister enjoyed Arancini ball dish with pink vodka sauce which was amazing. We both will order this next time we come. My sister main dish was salmon with a creamy rice sauce and artichokes. She said it was good. After eating all this...We decided on cannolis and tiramisu as our dessert. Then, Dami the manger came out with a big dessert platter. That surprised us with cannolis had a delicious creamy inside, and tiramisu was delicious. Which is one of my favorite dessert. She also add a slice of cheesecake with a blueberry sauce. Yummy Yummy! What we couldn't finish we took home. We left full and very satisfied. I give them ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!! Because ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️stars is not enough. A Big Thank You to the manger Dami????“

“Went on the weekend for brunch. Called ahead for reservations. When we arrived, most of the tables had reservation signs. Filled up as we were there. They have a good size bar as overflow seating but no bartender on duty, just regular wait staff. Reservations are a good idea.The Corned Beef Hash Benny was great. You get a choice of English Muffins or Hash Browns. I got it on the Hash Browns. It's different but delicious. The odd thing is that you get home fries, too. Potato everywhere. Maybe with Hash Browns, you could have a non-potato side?Parking: They don't have their own parking lot. But if you look on their website, they show at least 3 parking lots very close by that allow Brickhouse Cafe customers to park for free.“

“The pizza is amazing!! Besides that I took my 79 yr old father and you can stay and eat. It’s handicap accessible. Bubba’s pizza is out of this world and his staff is so friendly and courteous. I recommend this place to kids and adults of all ages!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I absolutely LOVE this place!! To the point where I ask for a calzone for my birthday every year instead of a cake ? The chicken fingers are my absolute favorite in Millis and the spicy fries are to die for! Marinho’s has been my favorite for a long long time“

“We have been ordering from Omega for years and love the drive thru. We have probably tried just about everything on the menu and have not been disappointed. The pizza is great and the mac 'n cheese or chicken parm dinners are huge portions. Love the garlic flat bread too!“

“I usually only do online orders for pick up, and even these are usually doing down hours, so it's always very quiet when I come in, and no one is immediately managing the pick up register, still I never have to wait long for someone to notice me, and the food is always delicious.“

“I've been coming here for a while now, but a recent event impassioned me to leave this review.Let me start by saying that firstly, the food here is ALWAYS delicious and cooked to perfection. Never have I ever received something done badly, spilled, or over/undercooked.Secondly and lastly, the employees and manager here are very kind and understanding. Today, I put in an online order for a pizza, but through either my error or my phone's internet connection error, my comment of "no mushrooms please!" did not attach to the order. When I arrived, my order had mushrooms on and I told them that I had put "no mushrooms." Without fuss, I was told that they would make another pizza for me right away. While I was waiting, I realized that the comment did not attach for some reason, and quickly apologized for my error. They were entirely understanding and even let me keep the second pizza free of charge!This interaction of them "honoring" MY error was wonderful and will keep me coming back for a long time! Combine that with the fact that I heard they give free pizzas to the elementary school students nearby, I gotta say that this restaurant has become one of my favorite places to come to. Delicious food and good company, what more could you ask for!“

“We had a delicious dinner tonight!Not only was the service wonderful, but our friend is handicapped and CARLOS, (manager) and another gentleman were so kind to help her out to the car. I can’t thank you enough for your compassion,LOVE THIS RESTAURANT!!“

“1st Time, 1st Pizza. I got the Melanzana Large 16", Regular Crust. The price was as expected for a gourmet pizza. It was fantastic. Fresh ingredients and just the right ratios of toppings. My pizza came out of the oven just as I arrived. Just found my new favorite local Italian Pizza place.“

“Spiga is a culinary gem tucked away in the heart of the city. With its inviting ambiance and attentive service, it promises an unforgettable dining experience. From artisanal pasta dishes to flavorful seafood and mouthwatering desserts, every bite at Spiga is a celebration of Italian cuisine at its finest. Whether you're enjoying a romantic dinner for two or gathering with friends for a special occasion, Spiga invites you to savor the flavors of Italy in a warm and welcoming setting.“

“South Street is my favorite pizzeria in Massachusetts. I moved here eight years ago after growing up in Brooklyn and Queens New York. I am a huge pizza snob. Most local places in this state do bad imitations of what they think pizza from New York is like. South Street is a different style but the sauce the cheese and the crust are always delicious and cooked perfect. wat is just as important. Is that George and the other crew here treat us like family. This is my go to place for birthday parties for ordering pizza for my students at school or for family pizza nights. We just moved to Norton and still come here for pizza because it’s better than anything else in our new town.I should add the buffalo wings are my favorite local wings also. And the chicken parm hero, they call it a sub here, is amazing.“

“We picked up food early on Friday night. How classic is this place? Vinnie was at the table near the pickup counter having his dinner and getting ready for a busy night. We had salmon, veal Parm, steak tips with Lobster Ravioli!When I return to the area I want to go for a sit down dining experience.I loved it.“

“We went there on a Saturday night in April, after initially wanting banh mi from the place around the corner. When we found out that the place around the corner didn't have restrooms, my wife and kids and I consulted Google maps and landed on Foxboro House of Pizza.When we walked in, I kind of immediately had my doubts, as there was the one bartender, and one lady at the takeout counter. And the place had a fair amount of people in it. But, there was a restroom, we were about an 90 mins from home, and needed to eat - so we stayed. Lots of New England decor - Bruins, Pats, Red Sox. I didn't see any soccer stuff but didn't look too hard.The one guy at the bar came over and immediately took our order, which was impressive. We got a large veggie pizza (my daughter's choice), 2 kids spaghetti meals, one philly cheesesteak with lettuce and tomato, and an order of onion rings. The food was plenty, and we left happy. The kids meals are a good value for the amount of food you get. Bartender guy was very friendly.Fast forward to when we get home, my wife realizes she must have left her purse there. I call, and yes, they have it. Too late to drive back before they close, so I go back Sunday morning at opening, and they have the purse. Nothing missing out of it. So to me, that's 5 stars.To sum it up, this seems like a locals joint, on first glance it may seem short staffed, but the food comes out fast and the employees appear to be honest, good people.“

“It was the Most Wonderful Time Of the Year. The Entire Family looks forward to this Christmas Event. The Buffet is Absolutely Delicious And no short of food For everyone! The Children enjoyed the Fun Activity’s And of Course their he was the big man - SANTA CLAUS! The kids Eyes lit ? up he paused and even gave a few Moments of his time to speak with them. It was Truly a Magical Time with the 8 of us! Looking forward to this Tradition next year. ?“

“Always love the food here! There are a ton of delicious, reputable pizza places right in my own town, but we drive an extra ten minutes away just to get La Toscana's. (Currently, the restaurant is doing renovations, so that's the only reason I gave three stars for atmosphere). Enjoy!“

“Best Parm in Norwood. If you want the best chicken parm, veal parm or eggplant parm then this is the place to order it from. The sauce is so good!! The meat or eggplant is cooked to perfection. Plenty of pasta to go with it. Never disappoints. The guys that answer the phone and who deliver and always polite.“

“We have ordered all over Norwood and after the same routine we needed something different. After just trying this place once we are hooked ... fresh food ... amazing service ... this will be a staple in our lunch orders from now on!!! Highly recommend!!!“

“This was a wonderful food experience but they have some work to do on the restaurants appearance. Maybe better lighting some paint on the ceiling where the skylight is. A little work will go a long way. Overall we had a nice experience with a super waitress.“

“A lovely place for lunch or dinner, beautifully decorated with a smooth, relaxed vibe. The staff were attentive and welcoming and the food was amazing! I ordered the tuna tartare and it was amazing. Sliced tuna pieces were surrounded by cucumbers, an avocado cream sauce and a delicious spicy sauce, very much like a spicy mayo, served with wontons. I would recommend this to anyone who appreciated sushi, especially. My friend had a cheeseburger, which was made from perfection, medium rare. This place must be experienced.“

“Food was wonderful though portions were average size for the price point. But overall really good! Our server was excellent, but once it started getting busier and their was not enough staff at the time the attentiveness of service dissipated. Overall, I would go back again as the experience was excellent“

“Alta Strada has an updated Tuscany menu for the season. It is exciting and the food choices at Alta Strada are always outstanding! Also, the famous Alta Strada cocktail back and is better than ever. The service and atmosphere are both always top notch!“

“It's the only Italian place in medway and its holding their own, it's a quick little place to eat if you live on the west side of Medway and even if you don't it's still a great place to eat. I'd rate the food 8.5/10 it's not the best thing I've ever had but it's still really good and they get the food ready very quickly.“

“We love this place. We come here when we visit our friends and take a trip to the outlets. This is our third time back. When the weather is nice there is outdoor seating. Inside is small but quaint. It has a homey feel to it. The gentleman sat us very quickly and we were greeted immediately. Water was served with warm bread and garlic oil to start, which is one of my favorite things here. My fiancé ordered the Tagliatelle con Salsiccia e Pollo. It's one of my favorite dishes, I only wish it came with more of that pasta! This time I tried the Pollo Mediterranean. The chicken and eggplant was great with the ricotta. I wish the pasta was tossed in the sauce as it was a little bland on its own but better once mixed in. I would love to try this dish with tagliatelle!“

“We loved our meal on Friday night. It was so wonderful to have Jessica wait on us. We were able to sit back, relax, and enjoy our meal. The service was excellent and Jessica should not only get a raise but should also be considered for leadership positions because you want someone who leads by example. Thanks for the great meal and great service. We’ll be back.“

“Everyone in town loves Kosta's: A family owned business with consistently good food. I frequently get the Greek salad with their incredible fresh pita bread. Delicious! The Greek chicken wrap is also a favorite. Kosta's family is running it now and carrying on his tradition of good food at reasonable prices. Sure prices have increased in the last few years (where haven't ithey), but quality continues to be the best in town. It's a cash business but if you forget, there is an ATM in the restaurant now. Lunch can be busy but they know how to move quickly so you are not left waiting long. I'm looking forward to my next visit to Kosta's!“

“BrickFire Pizza Co. ROCKS!!! I called from Nashville and ordered a surprise pizza delivery for my sister's birthday ( y'all went above and beyond...) The staff was AWESOME on the phone and upon delivery! So friendly and helpful. And the food was perfect! Not only were the pizza and wings delicious, but delivered hot and on time! They even wrote her a Birthday note on the inside of the box top! I highly recommend all my Boston friends (or if you are visiting the area) try out BrickFire Pizza Co.!!!!“

“I ordered a Hawaiian pizza well done on the bottom. They did just what I had asked for! The reason for 4 stars is that I also ordered a baklava, not at all impressed. It had no taste what so ever. I don't think you should buy that here for a dessert.I went on their website to order these items. I got a pop-up message saying I had to purchase $20.00 worth because of where I live. SMH. I live down the street! So I called and ordered my food, she didn't say anything about it. I just paid under 20.Their food is really GOOD. They are cheaper than Franklin Pizza and Deli.I ordered a club sandwich from both places..this is the best place and it tasted a whole lot better and it cost me $6.00 cheaper.Not every place is jacking up prices here they haven't, but Franklin Pizza and Deli has by alot!“

“This place is fantastic. Almost like a hidden gem, some people dont realize they pass by frequently but once they try this little deli, they're impressed. Ive recommended to many and all say great things also. Great quality, selection & prices. Freshest subs in Dedham.“

“Ordered a mushroom and olive pizza as well as a pepperoni pizza during the storm seeingwe couldn’t get out and food shop and we wanted a “game day” food. Their pizza is out of this world. I still can’t believe how fresh the sauce is and has a little sweetness to it! Sooooo good! Definitely will be coming back more often!“
