Italian Restaurants near Mequon

“Everything you'd expect when dining at a quality Italian restaurant in Mequon, yet pretty well-priced. According to the bill, our server at table 31 last night was a young guy named "Alexander N" whom was really pleasant and well trained. If management reads these he deserves an attaboy.“

“As a former employee, I still eat there sometimes. Not as often as before, because their food is expensive. They have really yummy pizzas, pastas, fries, and desserts. I’ve worked there for 3 years. Loved my job. Got laid off because of covid, which wasn’t my fault. This wasn’t their fault either. I felt sorry for these former employees, especially my former coworkers. Now, the service experience has changed. It’s not the same, but it’s still pretty decent. The female manager was friendly and welcoming to me. So was the female servers, hostess, and bartender. They are so kind and they deserve the best restaurant experience. So by doing that, I’ll give them a 5. Thanks for the yummy foods. I’ll be back again.???Kid-friendliness: There’s a kids menu, but it’s quite expensive. Hope the kids eat their foods. They do get hungry.Wheelchair accessibility: It’s easy for wheelchair people to enter and exit the movie theater.“

“This is by far the best pizza! You must order the deep dish. Even people that typically do not like deep dish love this one! The crust tastes like my grandma's beer bread she used to make. The ingredients are fresh and they are not stingy with their toppings. I even had my friend's mom (from Italy) dine with me there and she said it was exceptionally good. She said the sausage is excellent. It's a small, cozy place. A great place to dine with friends. The bartenders are always friendly. (You order at the bar and they tell you when your order is up.) My latest visit was recently. We drove from the airport, all the way to Tomaso's in the snow to enjoy their pizza, (we even ordered a par bake to take home) then drive an hour back home.“

“always enough toppings, staff is great but they need to upgrade the use of credit and or debit cards so you can leave a tip for the staff. they only have a tip jar for cash. I for one do not carry cash most of the time anymore due to a lot of businesses can be cashless. i wish he/they would update. As i am told it is not a difficult process to change over“

“Whenever a restaurant comes under new ownership, there is always a question of what will happen with the recipes that made it noteworthy. Lucky for us, the new owners (Hannah and Dean) kept what worked and added their own amazing additions, backed by their own developing culinary backgrounds and experiences. For example, along with the traditional sauce that made Lisa's pizza so delicious, there is also Hannah's own dessert recipes, an espresso martini made with Dean's own cold brew coffee recipe and the garlic bread, also created by Dean. While small changes have been made to the interior, with more slowly on the way, you will still find the dining room dimly lit and intimate. Although service was a little slow to start, our girl who seemed to be running the whole show did the best she could. Then Dean arrived, and he did an excellent job engaging and assisting us. He was kind enough to answer all our questions and make recommendations. The large cheese, sausage, mushroom and onion pizza we shared was fantastic and made with a generous amount of toppings. The combo plate veggies had a crispy coating, which kept their texture tender but not soft. The cheesy garlic bread was to die for. One of, if not THE best, I've ever had. DO NOT go here without ordering some! Then there's the Tiramisu. WOW. You could taste the coffee, although not overwhelmingly so, and the cream was fluffy and not overly sweet. Lisa's has been a Milwaukee staple, and it was wonderful to experience the classic flavors that brought us back, as well as new flavors that will keep us coming back for more!“

“Ordered pizza, lasagna, and garlic bread for a small gathering at our house. Staff was very helpful in helping us figure out how much we would need, and getting things ordered (especially, Sam). Everything was hot, ready on time, and enjoyed by all… especially the lasagna/garlic bread. Even the small bit of leftovers we had the next day was delish ?? ??“

“Mrs Shea and her husband catered our home wedding ceremony. As we’re already regulars, we knew we had to serve her food to our guests! She really paid attention to the details, helped plan a menu, and went above and beyond in service & quality!! The reviews from guests were outstanding. (Especially our pup that she also spoiled!) We made sure to include her greens & Mac as options, two of our favorites! She did a follow up call to ensure customer satisfaction and take feedback. I highly recommend Lily Bell’s!!“

“Some of the best Italian food I've ever had in my life. And I frequently go back to New York, which arguably is known for Italian food. The atmosphere is wonderful. The owner is usually there and he's a steel trap of memory. He knows who we are you feel like family when you go in there. Did I mention it's the best Italian food I've had in a while. If you haven't tried it you have to try it even if it's just grabbing a pizza to go.“

“Gave this spot a try. Ordered a large pepperoni, basil, and garlic extra thin. And a small pepperoni and black olive thin crust. Also ordered garlic bread with marinara sauce. First let me say. Their thin crust is basically hand tossed and the extra thin is a thicker version of a thin crust pizza. Both pizzas graded out to be about a 6.2/10. The cook on them was good. Not undercooked like many chain places do. The sauce is zesty with little to no sweetness. We preferred the sweeter sauce at Demarinis. But if you like a zestier sauce, you will most likely prefer Pepinos. Pizza was a tad greasy. Basil was dried basil, and not fresh unfortunately. But overall, I’d choose this place over any chain. The garlic bread and marinara was a bit confusing. They forgot the marinara unfortunately. So we just got the bread. The garlic bread looks to be French bread with sesame seeds on the bottom. Definitely different as the bitterness of the sesame doesn’t really mix well the buttery flavor of the garlic. 3.5/10 on the bread. Not my favorite, but not my least favorite. 6/10 overall experience.“

“Gallioto’s is, quite simply, a wonderful restaurant. The food was served piping hot, everything is fresh/scratch made, and they are very accommodating of special requests. The service was impecable, prompt, and personable. Anthony is one of the best servers I’ve ever encountered. He is so kind and friendly, and he always anticipates the need. Tonight we had one of the best Milwaukee dining experiences that we’ve had in a very long time. I’m only upset that my husband and I JUST realized that this restaurant exists just 10 minutes from our house! It’s the perfect spot for a date night.“

“Started having Marcos pizza when I worked at the Delco Electronics plant in Oak Creek approx 35 years ago. Still eating it to this day. Only on the Northwest location now. Quality and taste has not changed. Still the best pizza in town. Joe“

“I’ve lived here in the falls for over 15 yrs. I’ve know about GRINDERVILLE for several years but never ate here. I did a few weeks ago and have gone back 3x in a matter of 2 weeks. It’s fast, fresh, delicious, reasonably priced and overall just a great experience each time.“

“The staff was very professional, or waiter, Kao, I think, was very helpful, informative and polite. I would highly recommend this place.Wheelchair accessibility: We have a son in a power wheel chair. There was plenty of room to get him out of the van and into the resturant.“

“Our family loves Rosati’s. If you enjoy pizza you will definitely have to visit. The golden rule is the sauce and crust define the pie. They have nailed it. Great customer service and smiling faces welcome all. I have not tried other menu items but I would be inclined to say they have to be just as tasty as the pizza. Great job guys for staying consistent.“

“My Uncle's favorite restaurant, and we were there for dinner after his funeral. Everything was top notch. I had the petite filet, with new potatoes and sauteed mushrooms. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. Lovely server, took care of our every need. Will recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or every day.“
