Italian Restaurants near Monroe

“I love this pizza and the breadsticks. I used to eat here a lot but the manager would leave you waiting at the counter for ten to twenty minutes without service. He would see me and not bother helping or acknowledging me. I liked when Mark worked. He was always kind and helpful. I finally stopped going because I never knew whether I would be helped or not. I went in a couple of days ago with my son and Mark was working. He was kind and pleasant like in the past. Too bad the other person wasn’t as helpful. I really love the food. If Mark is working I will stop and eat. If the manager is working, I will keep on walking. Not sure how he keeps his job.“

“I've eaten at Carusos twice now, six months apart and each time the food was spectacular. I had the chicken alfredo. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The fettuccini was cooked properly, slightly al dente with the alfredo sauce beautifully creamy and again, seasoned perfectly. The price was $$$ our of $$$$$. The quality of the food was absolutely worth the money we spent. Our waiter, Sam, was friendly, professional, punctual without hovering, efficient in his service. I cannot recommend highly enough, whether you want a quiet, romantic dinner for two, or a gathering of friends looking for food and atmosphere, Carusos is a wonderful place to be.“

“Ive been working in this area past few days and have been trying a new grinder every day. This place has the best hot subs Ive ever had, Just the tip and the Balboa are top tier!!Friendly and caring service, cant go wrong stopping here for lunch. They need some french fries though!“

“Food was great. The wait staff was excellent. I would highly recommend making reservations and visiting this place. Small and dimly lit. The bruschetta, lasagna, and chicken parmesan were all excellent!Parking: Large parking lot next to building.“

“Great little pizzeria and Italian kitchen. Not your average pizza place, they have chicken parm, stuffed manicotti, lasagna. I had the cauliflower crust personal pizza which is outstanding! Crisp crust savory seasoned sauce, generous toppings, perfectly cooked. Super friendly guys as well.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust pizza fantastic“

Every bite was a delight and don't miss out on the heavenly tiramisu for dessert.I highly recommend for a satisfying dining experience!“

“Such a great restaurant with delicious food and friendly employees!! Stopped in to try this Piada location the other day and am so glad I did. The seating area is open and welcoming with many options, both inside and outside! The employees greeted me when I entered and were so friendly the entire time. I also really appreciated the student deal they offer! All in all, absolutely DELICIOUS food and such kind people that work there. I would definitely recommend supporting this establishment and can't wait to return!“

“The server's name was Warren. I mention him 1st, because he took great care of us!As you can see from the photos the food looked delicious! I had ole faithful, the tour of Italy. My mother had her ole faithful, thin spaghetti with marinara and a salad. A little skimpy on the serving of lasagna, but the food was delicious. My mother loves this place... Lol“

“Honestly just love Italian food and had no idea this place existed but so glad we found it. Connected to a golf course but such a hidden gem! Please go out of your way to try this place. The food and service are great! Almost no wait for a thing and nothing but smiles for anything you ask of the staff. Was so nice enjoying a nice dinner with no TVs playing and just gentle music and laughter from everyone enjoying themselves. Can't wait to come back.“

“Ambiance, food and staff were great, don't remember last time I was in a restaurant for more than 3 hours, it's a total experience including going after dinner to their speak easy. Is my wife favor restaurant !!! And we do travel a lot, great work Middletown.“

“Skip an I stepped out the other night to get a drink, haven't done it in a while. Had NO IDEA that it wasn't called Jen's anymore but that didn't make a difference we still had a good time! We have some friends that had told us about the "BIG" burger that you serve, an that we needed to try it lol!! Did we took their word for it and tried it, it was really good, not as big as we thought but the flavor was really good!! The service we got was great and really friendly an our food was fresh and hot, just like we like too lol!! We'll be back to stay a little longer than we got to stay that night (not sure we got all of it out that night lmfao)!! But THANK YOU to the Township Tavern (formerly Jen's) for making us feel comfortable and welcome, can't wait to come back!! ??“

“Consistently good and love their Detroit styles deep dish with turbo crust. It the only pizza where I enjoy the dough/crust just as much as the pizza itself. Prices are very fair, especially with the quality and quantity that you get, I can normally make 2-3 meals out of one large...and it taste just as good a few days after. Highly recommend Jet's Fairfield.“

“Went out for an early Easter dinner with Skip, he surprised me lol, I didn't have a clue! But it was a nice surprise, staff was great, didn't have no line to wait in at all, which was also great, our waitress was very nice, polite, funny and easy to talk to (always a plus in that line of work)!! Only little problem we had was that my guys wasn't cooked correctly so I had to send it back but thankfully it didn't take too long and we was able to eat together. Thanks Olive Garden for the great Easter diner we got to have, we had a wonderful time!!“

“We visited for the first time tonight for my mom’s 50th birthday and had an amazing experience. Our server, I think her name may have been Conner? Went above and beyond to make sure we were all helped and we had a pretty large party. We also lost a balloon that floated to the ceiling and the staff brought out a ladder and got the balloon down. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I could not have had a better experience at a restaurant. Food was prompt for the size of the party and everything tasted amazing.“

“I love Richard's salads. The Greek is my go-to, but I usually substitute artichoke hearts instead of black olives. They were able to make the switch easily, and I appreciate their attention to detail. Richard's onions are the best. They are really sweet and don't overwhelm the balance of flavor. This location has been my parents' regular spot for pizza takeout, and they always enjoy them. They especially appreciate the whole wheat crust option. Richard's is a solid choice for a meal; I highly suggest it.“

“We were able to get a same day reservation and were seated within 10 minutes. The ambiance of the restaurant was very nice and open. It was a busy night so the service was a tad slow, but our waitress was very friendly. The food quality was good! The calamari was delicious :)“
