  • Angelo's Pizza

    13715 Madison Ave., Lakewood Western Suburbs

    216-221-0440

    There are pizzas. And then there are Angelo’s pizzas: plump, fragrant works of art, from the thick provolone topping all the way down to the rich, yeasty crust. The chicken club is good, the veggie is great and the creamy, cheesy seafood pizza, topped with lobster cream, shrimp, crabmeat and fresh spinach, is the stuff of which our dreams are made. Salads, sandwiches, wings, a few pasta platters and a worthwhile beer list round out the menu at this good-looking spot.
  • Barbarino's Restaurant

    23871 Sprague Road, Columbia Station, Western Suburbs

    440-235-1830

  • Behind the Woods

    21919 Center Ridge Rd, Rocky River, OH 44116, Rocky River Western Suburbs

    (440) 333-9663

  • Buca di Beppo

    16677 SouthPark Center, Strongsville Western Suburbs

    440-846-6262

    Part of a national chain that attempts to recreate the experience of a boisterous Italian wedding circa 1950, Buca di Beppo is crowded, noisy and fun. The wall-posted menu includes gargantuan appetizers, salads, pizza, pasta, veal, and chicken dishes made for sharing. The food is good, even if it is overshadowed by sheer portion size.

    23575 Detroit Rd., Westlake Western Suburbs

  • Carrie Cerino's Ristorante

    8922 Ridge Rd., N. Royalton Western Suburbs

    440-237-3434

    Live oldies, rock, and blues invigorate the weekend crowds at Under C's Lounge, the spacious basement club adjoining Carrie Cerino's Italian restaurant.
  • Corleone's Ristorante & Bar

    5669 Broadview Rd., Parma Western Suburbs

    216-741-0220

    If “youthful” and “edgy” are what it takes to toss your trenne, this snug little restaurant at the far end of a Parma strip plaza may not be your kind of place. But if good-tasting Italian fare, brought forth in large portions at reasonable prices, is what makes your Alfredo creamy, look no further than the dimly lit Corleone’s.

  • Eddie's Pizzeria Cerino

    7305 Broadview Rd., Seven Hills Western Suburbs

    216-236-6007

    Too often, Italian joints go heavy on the comfort and light on the quality. Not so here where owner Eddie Cerino approaches traditional Italian food less like a grandmother and more like a chef. The result is food that looks familiar but tastes modern. And thanks to half orders of salad and pasta, diners have control over portion size and price. $$$
  • Pepper's Italian Restaurant

    12401 Detroit Ave., Lakewood Western Suburbs

    216-226-6191

    Flavorful, home-style menu: chicken piccata, eggplant parmesan, broccolini (fettucine with a broccoli sauce) and specialty pizzas. It’s intimate in the dining room, but there’s always takeout.
  • Players on Madison

    14523 Madison Ave., Lakewood Western Suburbs

    216-226-5200

    From the elegant crowd to the complementary gourmet pizza served on the hour during happy hour, Players is top-shelf, all the way.
  • Romeo's Pizza

    2064 Clague Rd., Westlake Western Suburbs

    440-331-1155

    You've gotta love Romeo's award-winning pizzas, made from mountains of savory toppings slathered in sweet and tangy sauce and loaded onto thick but remarkably tender crusts — and so delicious that they've taken pizzameister Sean Brauser all the way to the World Pizza Championships in Italy. Romeo's also offers calzones, stromboli, salads and sandwiches, but keep your appetite in check: It's carryout only at this bustling little spot.

  • ’Stino da Napoli

    19070 Old Detroit Rd., Rocky River Western Suburbs

    440-331-3944

    "Delicate," "precise," and "beautifully balanced" are just a few of the terms that spring to mind when we recall the preparations at this little gem of an Italian restaurant. While nearly every dish is as close to perfection as any kitchen is likely to come, the ephemeral gnocchi, the fork-tender veal, and the homemade desserts are so exactly right, they nearly make us weep.
  • Wood & Wine

    38790 Chester Rd., Avon Western Suburbs

    440-934-WINE

    Wood & Wine will never be a romantic Italian ristorante. But that doesn’t bother the west-side diners who fill the place almost nightly. The star of the show here is thin-crusted, wood-fired pizza. Round out the meal with hearty, flavorful, and justly priced pasta dishes. A handful of steaks and fish are available for the carb-phobic. Extensive wine list with more than few gems.
