36 Best Italian Restaurants near Scituate

“I almost didn't come here because I saw a review saying the food was bland. I'm so glad I came anywags, I got Chicken Parmesan with Pink Vodka sauce and Linguine, it was AMAZING! The portions were massive and I got about two whole breasts worth of chicken and the sauce was so so yummy, I had about 2/3 of my meal as leftovers. I'm definitely coming back here!“

“Updating my review because I last submitted a review in 2016. Some of the staff have since changed and they are under new ownership. The food and service at Merola's Granite Farm are better than ever! I often order their chicken parm dinner, minus cheese, because it's the best chicken I've ever had. Their tomato sauce is fresh, bright, and delicious. If I'm not in the mood for pasta, I order an eggplant grinder with sweet potato fries. The eggplant is crispy on the outside and velvety on the inside - phenomenal! Sweet potato fries are always good. I'm usually not a fan of breakfast because of my food allergies but I LOVE their breakfast items! I usually order a bunch of sides. Their carved ham is fantastic, their homefries are excellent, and you can't go wrong with their cinnamon baked apples or a grilled English muffin. Staff are personable, attentive, and friendly. You have the option of eating near the cozy bar, or in the larger dining area. Very beautiful. Love it here!!“

“The food was excellent. Coconut shrimp app, veal parm, chicken parm, and grilled salmon for the three of us. The sauce on the parm dishes was terrific. We shared two desserts of the blueberry and lemon cake and the hazelnut gelato. Service was very good, although a smile was difficult to receive.“

“Please, PLEASE stay open later???? Mangiamo has THE best sandwiches around! Bread is so fresh, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, the meats and ingredients fresh and TOP-NOTCH! SO filling~! Excellent prices, too. Don't forget to try their pizza strips... the best tasting strips I've had in the state. Desserts are incredible, but sadly,m they're only open until 3 pm... We order at least once a week...“

“This is a 5 star for us all the way! You can’t get more authentic Italian food than this. It’s one of those hole in the wall places that simply blow your mind. The owner and chef stands about 4’8” and he is an absolute sweetheart. The food is cooked perfectly and tastes amazing. You must try the sizzling sirloin! Abbondanza folks! ❤️“

“Nice place. Small bar but the place really isn't that big inside. I ordered a garden salad which was a decent size and fresh. No black lettuce to be found. Lots of cucs and olives. I also ordered a small cheese and meatball pizza which was done nice. The only thing I wish I ordered was a little extra sauce on pizza. Other than that, it was really enjoyable and would definitely return.“

“Small Family style atmosphere restaurant.BYOBEach dish is prepared ? ?If you are looking for a quiet romantic dinner, this is not the place as this place is usually full of cheer laughter family and friends being themselves.Reservations are highly recommended .Always a great experience for us as well as our Family and FriendsParking: It is common to block those who you dine with in so that it frees up space for others.“

“The bottomless mimosas were nothing short of delightful. The quality of the champagne and freshly squeezed orange juice was evident with every sip. The generous pours and prompt refills kept our brunch flowing smoothly. Dianna was always there to check on us, ensuring we had everything we needed without being intrusive. What truly stood out was Dianna's genuine hospitality. She took the time to engage with us, recommending her favorite brunch dishes and sharing some insider tips about the menu. Her enthusiasm and passion for her job were contagious, making our dining experience truly memorable. Overall, I can't recommend Terrazas enough for their incredible bottomless mimosas, but what truly sets them apart is their exceptional service, especially from Dianna. She is a true asset to the establishment and made our brunch experience one to remember. We will definitely be returning, thanks to Dianna's outstanding service! Diona, I love you with passion!“

“We order at least once a week, every week, from Cowesett Pizza! My family loves the way they make pizza to order. We also love the sandwiches and appetizers. Can't say enough wonderful things about this place. The staff is always friendly and the drivers are our favorites. We have tried many pizza places and Cowesett Pizza is the best!“

“Stopped in for a quick meal a few nights ago and can't say enough wonderful things about them. The owner and staff are warm and welcoming, the food is delicious, portions are generous, and prices are reasonable. We've only been there a few times and yet are treated like family every time we walk through their door. We need more places like Sherri's.“

“I love this restaurant but I did have an issue last night I ordered the Margarita pizza with anchovies, unfortunately your chef either didn’t have them or didn’t know but gave me sardines instead. I ate two pieces saying no problem to the waitress and took the rest home. Had to throw it out today. Smell was overpowering Sorry, just explain the difference to your chef. ?. Joy D’Ambra“

“I have loved West Valley Soup and Sauce since they opened! The food and service are phenomenal! And they recently came to my rescue on Easter Sunday when my escarole soup flopped. Luckily I didn't show up to The Feast empty-handed... and they loved West Valley's soup better than my own!!! And "The Family" was extremely excited to know they could get delicious soup and tasty food nearby!!“

“I have been going here since I was 18, now at almost 26 I will always be a fan of their food.Comforting, good quality, and decent prices.Feels like I’m ordering food from a family home.If I’m having a hard day this place never disappoints!“

“We had Luigis cater a birthday party event at the Carousel in Roger Williams Park. They were absolutely fantastic. The 2 servers took care of literally everything. Thank you Jaime and Francesca! Food was delicious, service was beyond expectation. Everyone was delighted. I highly recommend them for catering.“

“Love Wise Guys!! Their service is exceptional and a very friendly staff!! My go to is a grilled chicken pesto pizza (this is something I put together) it's a large ? with grilled chicken, pesto, marinara and fresh mozzarella!!! They have hands down nailed this pizza!! Great place for both sandwiches and pizza!!“

“I have ordered from here many times. Everything I have tried has been excellent! The fish and chips are the best I have ever had. A single order is large enough for two people. The meatballs and sauce are delicious. Their large square pizza is one of the best pizzas I have had in the Coventry area. If you like Twin's in North Providence you will love Pagliarini's pizza. Pagliarini's crust is slightly thicker and heavier but in a positive way. I am a huge fan of New Haven style coal fired pizza, like Frank Pepe's, but when I want a thicker style crust Pagliarini's is where I go.“

“This is my 87 y/o mom’s favorite pizza place. Thin and crispy and well done is her preferred meal with a garden salad with chicken. The salads are fresh, the house dressing is perfect- oil, vinegar & herbs. The calzones my favorite are fantastic! There’s over a dozen to choose from- my fav is the sausage, mushrooms, sauce and cheddar cheese with wheat dough. This spot is a family favorite, neighborhood favorite restaurant with a variety of pasta, salads, sandwiches, calzones and pizzas. The couple sitting next to ours had pasta dishes I couldn’t keep my eyes off of! There’s also a bar with 2 large TVs. It was busy and the waitstaff were working hard.Kid-friendliness: There’s a kids menu.“

“Really good food and large portions. Service was slow, but they appeared to have just one server. One member of our group was finished eating before the rest of us even got our food. The fries were salty, just the way I like them. The fish was delicious!Definitely will return to try a couple of dishes that looked good. Just perhaps earlier when it isn’t so busy.Wheelchair accessibility: I didn’t see a ramp, but the stairs are wide and easily accessible. It was raining, so if there was a ramp, I just missed seeing it.“

“This is our second night out at The Harris and our experience was excellent, again. The atmosphere is busy in a vibrant, good time, almost celebratory way. The staff is welcoming and attentive. As a guest, you feel like everyone involved cares about your experience. The food is tasty, well seasoned and cooked just right. Even the sides are well thought out. I had the blackened shrimp, for a second time since it was so good. Love the mashed potato with the skin left on. My husband had a huge prime rib cooked just right and my daughter had the cod. Definitely going back to explore more of this menu. Great way to have a well done meal and have a good time close to home.“

“I actually was going into the plaza, to do something totally different. I went inside and everybody was so nice! I checked out the menu and noticed they have specials every day as well entertainment on Wednesday as well the weekends.I've been in PR how, many years. How they handle their specials as well as entertainment is the way an establishment should be conducted. I liked it so much, I wanted to share their menu on my Facebook.I do have a large following and I'm always more than happy to help promote.Keep up the great work!“

“First time here and it was very good. I tried the swordfish and it was not bad. The service was outstanding. I'd recommend sitting at a table unless your a skinny person. I'd recommend if you're looking for a place to have a romantic dinner with that special someone. Not too loud and they take good care of you.“

“The sandwich I ordered, Number 18, was absolutely delicious! The meats were fresh and flavorful, and the onion rings on the side were a great complement. What impressed me just as much was the exceptional service from the staff - friendly and welcoming.I'll definitely be back! ?“

“Best Italian Prepared Foods! My entire Christmas Eve dinner was prepared by Mario's Italian Deli and everyone raved about how excellent everything was! The clam sauce was hit! The snail salad, stuffed clams and baked stuffed shrimp were all delicious. Mario's is now a part of my holiday tradition every year!“

“A strange location for a restaurant, have always driven past this location and wondered hmmmmmm maybe next time. I'm glad I did because it definitely was worth trying out. The bread with evoo was delicious I have to say a bit better than any other locations that give you some. ??“

“What a hidden gem. We couldn’t settle in a dish because they all sounded appetizing. Clean, quaint, and homey. Can’t wait to go back.Dietary restrictions: Perfect for someone gluten free or keto. Opted to put my dish over a bed of zucchini instead of pasta and still felt full.“

“Stopped in today to try out the new spot! I was impressed! First we tried the Pineapple Cosmo and the Pink Spritz! Both were delicious!! Well shaken for a cosmo. Bartender was super friendly and attentive! When we got here there was only the brunch menu available....we ordered the deviled eggs and Maple and Cider Bacon! So great! We decided to stay and then get the Seafood Tower....also good! We didn't love the bread, although we wanted to! It's got a great vibe, easy location and everyone seems happy and friendly! Excited to try this again and come for dinner!“

“Seating for 2 was tight. Table filled up fast with water, bread and oil dip, cocktail when the salad came we had to shuffle to make room. Could easily reach dinners on either side of us. The food was great,hot bread, cold salad plates. Entrees were large and well prepared. Our server was prompt and very personable. Overall great meal!“

“Stopped in to check this place out, & decided to stay for a quick bite - ordered the eggplant fries (these are the 'steak fries' of the eggplant world) Delicious & the marinara was just right. Hence the 5☆ for food on this visit, wife & I WILL return soon for a full meal!“

“Anna is the best! She was so informative, helpful made all these delicious drinks and guided us to the perfect dishes. I highly recommend. Also, I am gluten free and I was able to order so many different dishes, bread, desserts and drinks. They really took the time to make sure all was gluten free for me“

“This restaurant has been on my bucket list and I was finally able to experience it. The service was great, I had a party of 5 on a very busy Saturday/holiday weekend and they were able to accommodate my family within 5mins of calling. They pulled a table aside and made sure it was set on time, even with a kids cup ready to go. We ordered several apps: Cheesy Garlic Bread, Calamari, and Mozzarella Triangles. The mozzarella triangles were the best out of the 3 apps ordered. The Cheesy Garlic bread could use some more cheese. I also got a chicken soup and Caesar salad on the side. The pasta in the chicken soup was a bit mushy but had good flavor. The Caesar salad dressing wasn't very flavorful, pretty basic but the lettuce was crispy. My family ordered the Christine, Bolognese, and chicken parm with pink vodka. All of the entrees were the shining stars and absolutely delicious. Very big portions! This is a great family style restaurant with plenty of seating. The restaurant was very dark inside but had a cozy feel. Parking was also very easy.“

“Pats Italian Restaurant in Coventry, RI, offers a commendable 8/10 dining experience. @patsitaliancoventryGrowing up in an Italian household in Rhode Island, I am particularly discerning when it comes to Italian restaurants, often finding myself unimpressed with many establishments in the state. However, Pats stands out as one of the few Italian restaurants that I can genuinely recommend.With locations in Johnston and Coventry, Rhode Island, I prefer the dining experience at the Coventry location. I gotta tell ya that the design of the restaurant does not distinctly convey an Italian aesthetic.Despite its unassuming exterior, the interior is clean and inviting, featuring a spacious seating area that also serves as an ideal venue for family dinner parties.The welcoming and attentive wait staff adds to the positive atmosphere. Pats offers an extensive menu with delectable options, ranging from the beautifully plated Veal Sorrento to the skillfully prepared Shrimp Scampi. The consistency in the quality of each dish, served in generous portions, reflects the chefs' dedication and love for their craft.Highlighted recommendations for appetizers include the Rhode Island Calamari, Mozzarella Triangles, and Italian Egg Rolls. For entrees, the Chicken Parm with Homemade Radiatore Pasta (substitute for pink sauce), Chicken Christine, Chicken Milanese, and Crispy Chicken Alfredo are standout choices.Although seafood and eggplant are not typically in my culinary preferences, my family raves about the vast selections available. Pats also introduces new specials each week, ensuring a variety of flavorful options.With a friendly and personable staff combined with a plethora of savory dishes, Pats Italian Restaurant guarantees an excellent dining experience!FOLLOW ME ON IG @IGTYFOODDietary restrictions: Gluten Free Options“

“People here like the pizza. I think the Sicilians/largest are good and remind me of my ole days making Siclians at Robertos PizzaHowever, Tommy's entrees are the best thing here. From Chicken Marsala to their Risottos, Cod dishes, etcBill Clinton came here several years ago. A staple if you live in Oaklawn“

“The food was delicious and portions are big enough you can split an entree! The breakfast burrito was my favorite!!Service was good! Our waitress was kind but had a lot of tables so didn’t get as many refills as you might like.Atmosphere was quaint and lighting was perfect for breakfast and made cozier by all the Christmas decor!“

“We had Keith this evening in Warwick. He was a phenomenal server. Very knowledgeable and charismatic. We wanted for nothing and he was on point with pace and attentiveness. Food was delicious too!! Thank you Keith - we will be back for you!!“

“We dine here weekly. The food , service , and atmosphere is awesome. I hope the owner's appreciate the amazing people that work so hard for them !!!

The cook's don't stop they are hard workers too !!!Kudos to All !!!Please tip these people that work so hard to please all of us. Thank you to ALL AT AT THE GRILL ❤️??????“

“I had take out pizza here before but it was my first time dining in. The calamari appetizer was delicious. Living in NH now I don't get good calamari, below average at best. I ordered the veal Parm. It had a tasty red sauce and the veal was cooked perfectly. The Alfredo sauce I had on a side of pasta was a bit dry. Very nice wait staff. I will definitely go back.“
