Quarantino's

The Crab Rangoon pizza, a Detroit-style rectangle with creamy crab filling and sweet chili heat, is the kind of thing that gets people talking. Quarantino's runs a tight menu of bold, inventive pies on a properly blistered, thick-edged crust that holds its shape when you pick it up. The pickle sticks and sourdough bread with hot honey are worth ordering alongside.

Greco's Pizza

★ 4.7(1,071)· $

The Pesto Portofino is the specialty order to know, and the garlic cheese bread gets its own fan club. Two pizzas and pepperoni rolls run about $35 with leftovers to spare. Takeout and third-party delivery both work, though calling ahead gets you more flexibility on the menu.

Bistro Bella Vita

★ 4.6(2,101)· $$

The Beef Brisket Bourguignon ($36) is the draw here, slow-braised and saucy in a way that earns comparison to the best pot roast you've had. The brick oven turns out Margherita pizzas that reviewers stack up against Naples. Busy on Tuesday nights, but the patio seats walk-ins when the weather cooperates.

Licari's Sicilian Pizza Kitchen-No.1

★ 4.6(1,585)· $$

The Sfinciuni and Schiacciata pizzas are the reason to come to Licari's on Leonard St. Riccotta Balls show up in more than one review as a standout starter. Families roll in after weekend sports games, the pizza earns repeat visits, and the pasta is a secondary concern.

Nonna's: The Trattoria

★ 4.6(802)· $$

The Chicken Scallopini and calamari draw repeat mentions, and the lamb shank with a round of sangria makes a strong case for a longer evening. Nonna's runs a seasonal menu alongside the regular one, so there's usually something new to order. The dining room is small and fills fast. Reservations are the move on weekends.

Martha's Pizza

★ 4.6(293)· $

The margherita pizza, whole basil sprigs and all, is the place to start. Martha's runs a thin but sturdy crust, and the garlic oil-based Webster with roasted garlic and pine nuts is worth a separate visit. Call ahead during the weekday dinner rush (4-8 PM), or swing by for a slice on your own schedule. Gluten-free crust is available.

Monelli's Italian Grill & Sports Bar

★ 4.5(2,962)· $$

The bang bang shrimp and spinach artichoke dip with pita chips come up repeatedly, and the fettuccine alfredo has at least one committed regular. Dining room and bar are separated by a wall, with the dining room running dim. Service gets uneven reviews, and the takeout option has its own fans.

Herb & Fire - Grandville

★ 4.5(1,647)· $$

Wood-fired pizza is the whole point at Herb & Fire, and the menu runs deep: numbered pies like the #4 and #8, build-your-own options with unique toppings, and gluten-free crust available. Reviewers warn the cheese is heavy-handed, and topping coverage can be uneven slice to slice. Salads get solid marks if you want something lighter.

Noto's Old World Italian Dining

★ 4.5(780)· $$$

The veal Milanese and polenta with locally sourced mushrooms are the kind of dishes that explain a 4.5-star average across hundreds of reviews. Marble staircases, statues, and a wine list thick as a book set the room apart from any other Italian spot on 28th Street. The wine cellar and private banquet hall handle parties up to 20 or more, and several reviewers have looked into booking weddings here.

Two Sons Pizza

★ 4.6(166)

Two Sons does New York slices. Long, foldable, properly leoparded. The meatball and Grand Pepperoni slices come out on flimsy white paper plates, which is exactly right. Garlic rolls are buttery and salty in a way that works. Pinball in the back and plenty of seating round it out.

Papa K's Pizza

★ 4.6(164)

The cherry chicken pizza has a loyal following at this Ada neighborhood spot, and the Papa K's Special gets called out as a match for any chain's deluxe. Regulars also swear by the garlic parmesan boneless wings. Good, straightforward pizza from a place that's been earning repeat customers for years.

Lombardo's Pizza of Wyoming

★ 4.5(410)· $

The 24-inch pies are a regular for work lunches, and the Sicilian-style sauce earns the kind of loyalty that travels. Subs get attention too, with fresh-baked bread showing up in multiple reviews. Pizza by the slice runs during lunch hours.

Myrth

★ 4.5(265)· $$

The pork and bacon meatballs are a strong start, but the honey pie at the end is what reviewers keep coming back to mention. Pasta dishes get consistent praise, and the Leelanau raclette pizza drew its own fans. The outdoor patio is worth noting if the season is right.

Cottage Inn Pizza Grand Rapids Eastown

★ 4.5(208)· $

The deep dish at this Eastown Cottage Inn runs fluffy and properly cooked, and the antipasto salad with house-made Italian dressing is worth adding to the order. It's a chain, but this location has a loyal following since reopening in Grand Rapids. The staff moves quick on phone orders.

Peppino's Sports Grille & Pizzeria

★ 4.4(2,053)· $$

The sweet-sauced pizza pulls repeat visits at this Kentwood Italian sports bar, where Hawaiian, pepperoni, and combo pies come out of the kitchen alongside wet burritos and Italian meatballs. Lots of TVs everywhere you look. Happy hour runs on weekdays, with daily menu specials that reviewers say are easy on the wallet.

Vitales Pizza of Ada Inc

★ 4.4(1,755)· $$

The gnocchi with Parmesan cream sauce gets consistent praise, and the mozzarella and pepperoni cheesy bread reportedly steals the show over the pizza. Wings land solidly too. The pizza itself draws mixed opinions, with a few reviewers putting it closer to chain-restaurant territory than a neighborhood Italian standout.

Palio Grand Rapids

★ 4.4(1,090)· $$

The tableside parmesan wheel on the fettuccine is the draw at Palio, a sit-down Italian spot on Michigan St with validated parking and reservation availability. Groups of 8 have been seated without much fuss, and a happy hour selection gets a mention. Service pace is inconsistent, and some dishes run underseasoned, so order strategically.

Fred's Italian Restaurant

★ 4.4(1,090)· $$

The deep-fried portobello mushrooms and generously topped pizzas are what keep regulars coming back to this Plainfield Ave staple. Cheese is loaded on everything, and the lasagna and calamari round out a menu that runs from Italian classics to burgers. A full bar with 16 TVs and a seasonal patio give it range beyond a typical pizza spot.

Salvatore's | Italian Restaurant & Pizza

★ 4.4(1,023)· $$

The veal parm arrives smothered in red sauce and melted cheese, with a side of spaghetti, and multiple reviewers single it out by name. Portions run large and prices stay reasonable, which keeps people coming back. Carry-out holds up well, and the chicken marsala gets strong marks too.

Harmony Brewing Company

★ 4.4(688)

Wood-fired thin crust is the draw at this East Hills brewery, housed in a converted fire station. The Pizza Flight lets you sample six signature pies, and the Friend of the Devil (goat cheese, building heat) is the one to watch. Summer patio is dog-friendly and gets busy.

Florentine Ristorante/Sportsbar Grandville

★ 4.4(659)· $$

The Super Sub is big enough to split, and reviewers say it rivals anything in the area. Private dining booths line the upstairs room, and the all-you-can-eat fish comes with automatic seconds without asking. A Grandville staple that's easy to overlook from 28th Street but worth the stop.

Testa Rossa Italian Ristorante

★ 4.4(303)· $$

The chicken piccata with asparagus and prosciutto and the tiramisu both get repeat mentions across reviews. Spaghetti squash swaps in for pasta at no extra charge, which is a small but real touch. Service has been uneven, and the wine list runs Italian-only.

Uccello's - Grandville

★ 4.3(2,178)· $$

Uccello's in Grandville runs as a sports bar with an Italian lean: lots of TVs, a lively room, and a menu that covers pizza alongside American standards. The lemon martini and espresso martini both get called out by regulars. Takeout packaging drew specific praise, and the counter staff throws in a free dessert on your birthday.

Vitale's Pizza Grand Rapids

★ 4.3(1,938)· $$

BBQ chicken pizza and buffalo wings get repeated praise at this Leonard Street spot, and the cheese pizza comes out thick with a nicely browned top. The rigatoni and cheesy breadsticks round out a menu that goes well beyond pizza. It gets busy, and the wait can stretch.

Uccello's - Downtown

★ 4.3(1,365)· $$

The pickle pizza gets mentioned by name and keeps people coming back. Portions run generous here, and the outdoor patio has a bar when it's operating. A short walk from DeVos Performance Hall makes this a natural pre-show stop downtown.

Peppino's Pizzeria & Sports Grille | Jenison

★ 4.3(1,093)· $

The lunch buffet at Peppino's runs 4-5 pizza options, warm breadsticks, and a pasta station (the Alfredo chicken gets called out). Fried pickle spears in a thick breading are a recurring order at the bar, and the drink pours run strong. Multiple TVs and plenty of seats make it a reliable sports-watching option in Jenison.

Hall Street Bakery

★ 4.3(720)· $$

Hall Street Bakery is a neighborhood staple on the southeast side, known for its croissant sandwiches, scones, and a full coffee bar with drinks like the raspberry truffle mocha. The outdoor seating is set back from the road with some shade, making it a decent stop on a nice day. Takeout and delivery are available, though order accuracy can slip on delivery runs.

Alfano's Pub and Ristorante

★ 4.3(706)· $

The 18-inch pizza is the move at Alfano's, with a sauce reviewers call less salty and less acidic than the competition and pepperoni that actually has some heat. The manicotti draws repeat visits too. Takeout is set up in a separate section from the dining room, and dinner is busier than lunch.

Joe's Pizza King

★ 4.3(640)· $

Joe's Pizza King has been running on 44th St SW for over 50 years, and the stone oven is the reason people keep coming back. The 14-inch 3-topping special at $14 is a recurring order for regulars, and the crust gets consistent praise. Delivery can be hit or miss, so pickup is the safer call.

Cottage Inn Pizza Grand Rapids

★ 4.3(101)

Cottage Inn is a Michigan chain, but this downtown location on Ionia has earned its regulars. Reviewers single out the consistency and fair pricing as reasons to skip the Dominos-and-Pizza-Hut circuit, and the delivery operation runs fast even on bad weather days. Friday dinner rush can stress the staff.

Peppino's Downtown

★ 4.2(2,434)· $$

The pizza is the reason to come to Peppino's Downtown. Breadsticks and deep-fried pickles round out the bar-food menu, and plenty of TVs make it a reliable game-day stop on Ionia Ave. Big groups should know that service can buckle hard under pressure.

Florentine Sports Lounge

★ 4.2(1,133)· $$

The pizza has kept regulars coming back for decades, and the 9-inch two-topping on the Munchy Menu (everyday 3-6pm and 9pm to close) at $8 is the value play. The Coach's Choice Burger, seasoned with Montreal Steak Seasoning, is a legit alternate order. A private dining room handles parties up to 50-60 people without breaking a sweat.

Fratelli’s Italian Kitchen

★ 4.2(1,016)· $$

Nonna's Gnocchi and the fettuccine alfredo with grilled chicken draw repeat visits at this Bridge Street Italian kitchen. Portions run large across the board, and the cheese and meat board is worth starting with. A birthday discount through their rewards program sweetens the deal.

Wealthy Street Bakery

★ 4.2(535)· $$

Blueberry scones and cinnamon rolls are the regulars' anchors at this Wealthy Street neighborhood bakery. The "yesterday's bakes" rack near the door offers discounted day-old pastries, and the kitchen handles big custom orders too. Bread bowls for 50 people, custom cakes, table-delivered lunch. It's a working bakery, not just a coffee stop.

B.C. PIZZA LAKE MICHIGAN DR

★ 4.2(343)· $

The lunch and dinner pizza buffet at $15 a head (drink included) is the move here. The salad bar is back in form under new management, stocked and fresh. Soft crust, not the cracker-thin stuff, and a large three-topping with breadsticks runs around $20.

Big Bob's Pizza

★ 4.7(669)· $$

The Mediterranean pizza keeps regulars coming back, and the meat lover's with garlic has its fans too. Breadsticks and complimentary popcorn round out the table. A 4.7-star neighborhood spot on Croswell with a loyal following and a beer list worth noting.

JT's Pizza & Spirits

★ 4.6(1,110)· $$

The Beer Cheese and Pretzel Bites are a 10/10 according to more than one regular, and the pizza holds up too. Reviewers call out the fresh cheese, loaded pepperoni count, and crust worth eating to the end. Lunch deals let you grab a slice and a fountain drink without much damage to your wallet.

Allora

★ 4.1(141)

The squid ink pasta and Linguine Al Nero Di Mare show up repeatedly across reviews, and the Delizia Di Limone, a lemon cream sphere on a sugar cookie base, is the dessert people keep mentioning. Formerly Reserve Wine and Food, this coastal Italian room runs on the pricier side (dinner for two with tip near $300 is common) and the $10 bread service has drawn some eye-rolls. The ribeye gets outsized praise for a place that leads with Italian.

Bar Down Grill

★ 4.2(823)· $

The house special pizza gets strong reviews, with regulars calling the crust and sauce some of the best in Michigan. There's also a drive-thru window, karaoke nights, and wings on the menu. Service has been hit-or-miss in recent reviews, with attentiveness varying quite a bit depending on the night.

Vito's Pizza

★ 3.7(1,456)· $

Vito's on Fulton has long been a late-night delivery staple, the kind of place regulars hit on Saturday nights when they don't want to drive. Recent reviews flag inconsistent quality across the board, with complaints about doughy pizza, hard buffalo wings, and under-filled stromboli. Garlic knots draw consistent praise and hold up as a reason to keep the number saved.
