17 Best Italian Restaurants near Chardon

“My husband and I went to Cremona’s last night for dinner and it is our new favorite place! Made from scratch pasta, large portions, excellent service and the owner/Executive Chef, Alex, brought our food to our table. We watched as he checkingIn with other guests to see if they were happy with the food. Where does that happen? We loved the intimacy of the smaller venue. We were seated at the front window overlooking Chardon Square and enjoyed watching the snow come down as we ate dinner. This is a table I will request in the future. Our server, Joe was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, wine, and specials. We can’t wait for the new patio to open so we can enjoy the outdoor space! Thanks Cremona for a memorable evening!“

“I met my friend here last night after not seeing her for a long time and her losing her son. We were sat in a nice area away from the bustle. The food was excellent and our server was also wonderful. We sat and cried and caught up until they were closing. We didn’t feel rushed nor were we rushed at all. Wonderful experience. Will be back again!! Thank you Joey’s Italian Grill!Parking: We each found a parking spot but it was crowded which is a good thing I guess!“

“We ordered our meal on the website which was quick and easy. When we arrived our food was hot and ready. We had pizza, bbq wings and a salad. Everything was made just as ordered and the person at the counter was friendly. They even supplied us with plastic utensils and napkins. I would and will come again.“

“I was taken to Nonna's for the 1st. time to celebrate my birthday recently. The ambiance and servers are exceptional. Before ordering Nonna came out to introduce herself and wish me a happy birthday. I had the veal marsala. Every bite melted in my mouth. Then she came out with my favorite homemade tiramisu and enough cannolis for my family to enjoy. If you haven't experienced Nonna T's Restaurant make a reservation and get ready for some pampering. And you will definitely be taking some food home with you as her portions are like family style. Grazie Nonna see you again soon ??❤️??“

“I've had takeout before- but I've never been in myself. It's really like walking into a little piece of history. Love the atmosphere- clean and neat and the smells! I picked up a selection of pizza slices (love that is available & ready!).. and an order of chicken Parmesan which was plenty for 3 meals. This girl at the front (she must be part of the family) - took great care of me - everything was AWESOME! Tip big people and EAT LOCAL!“

“There appeared to be one server taking the whole dining room. So no fault of hers, but it was slow getting started orders, drinks. Food was good, however the menu is a tad bit pricey for what you would expect in Middlefield Ohio. We got the chicken parmesan special on Tuesday it was 10.00. The meal was delicious. The dining room was very clean and nice decor, they did a nice job converting a Wendy's into a dining room. Overall a very nice experience“

“Had the fettuccine alfredo....the best I ever had. The portion was huge, so was the salad.I've eaten at many Italian restaurants, to me, the best. Great atmosphere too. I can't wait to go again! ?Kid-friendliness: The waitress was awesome. At the end of dinner the owner introduced himself. I liked that a lot. Made you feel like family.“

“This place was absolutely wonderful. We had tried two other places previously, and couldn't get a table. The owner was so kind and caring, taking the time to make recommendations about the rest of our stay, and the food was simply amazing. It felt like we were family even though we had just met. I don't often leave reviews, its rare anymore that a place leaves that big of an impression. This one definitely did. If you are in the area, you would be cheating yourself to not visit.“

“The name says it all! I was very impressed with the unique flavors of the Mediterranean pizza. The flavors all went together splendidly. The additional vinegrete dipping sauce was the cherry on top! I can't wait to try another unique specialty pizza! The aspect that led me to this restaurant was the sourdough pizza dough. I had never heard of something like that. As someone who has made home-grown bread with just flour, water, and salt and a little time on the counter, it piqued my interest. I was not disappointed.“

“I had the chance to pick up a pizza from Angelo's Friday evening. I was very pleased with their pizza The crust is thin and hand tossed I prefer pepperoni and mushrooms with lots of cheese. Their pizza sauce is not too sweet and very flavorful. I'm looking forward to another visit to eat in their dining room to enjoy one of their bougie boozy milkshakes.“

“The food was delicious as always. I was disappointed that the food had to be taken out, I miss eating at your restaurant. I ordered garlic balls. I got some bread that had to be pulled apart. There wasn't any garlic on this bread. They also gave Italian bread. Chicken Marsala was delicious with real big mushrooms!“

“Fawn was a great server as u all know!!! Thanks again for another great visit, brought my grandson this time!Kid-friendliness: Equipped with high chairs, booster seats, server would find crayons sure if need be.Wheelchair accessibility: 1st level easy cheesey“

“Great pasta dishes in a restaurant that resembles its rustic Italian name. I got the Chicken Diavolo and it was very good. There is one page of the menu that features what says is daily fresh made pasta...want to try some more of those. Prices are a bit high compared to other Italian places in the area, but portions are pretty good and food seems pretty high quality. Service was great at the bar. Restaurant is pretty large but it was busy and pretty full when I was there on Saturday. Will definitely go back again.“

“Alas, another empty pizza box. What do you think that means?Such a gooooood pizza (I went Andy Griffith there on ya).Tremendous service, cold beer, really good food.If you’re reading this the ? Parm sandwich is also out of this world. Especially during the Monday Lunch Special.Nothing but Goodness ?….“

“Everything about this place was amazing!! We came to town for the eclipse. We had couple different restaurants we wanted to try & none of them were opened. Zappitelli's was one of the only locally owned places opened that wasn't another chain restaurant. I am sooooo glad we ended up there. The staff was so nice & professional. The atmosphere was nice & comfortable. The food was REAL!! I can't say enough good things about this Restaurant. It's a must try!“

“I grew up on this pizza and it's still our go-to spot. Love their pizza, the Big Italian sub, cheesy bread, pastas and Ultimate Chicken Salads. Prices are reasonable and service is always good. The Lake Shore location has a private room for events and Mentor Ave has a great patio when it's warm. The Longo Family has always been a great community partner.“

“What an amazing, beautiful , and delicious pizza. It's been a few weeks since I had a pizza and this by far was the best. The delivery was excellent and the pizza arrived hot considering the distance from the restaurant to my home. I ordered a deluxe that had multiple toppings. The pizza was not soggy. Awesome crust. Great flavor. Thank You Zeppe's.“
