  • Bravo! Cucina Italiana

    28889 Chagrin Blvd., Woodmere Eastern Suburbs

    216-360-0099

    Reasonably priced, family-friendly dining inside an upscale, Disneyesque facsimile of ancient Roman ruins is this Columbus-based restaurant's claim to fame. The menu focuses on pasta, pizza, or wood-grilled meats; for dessert, the partially caramelized cheesecake, in a pool of crème anglaise, tastes like more.
  • 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.

  • Café Toscano

    215 W. Garfield Rd. (St. Rt. 82), Aurora Kent/Portage County

    330-995-2333

    This snug, suburban oasis features a casually upscale vibe, a gregarious Roman chef and an expansive, entrancing menu of Italian eats, with options ranging from savory antipasti platters, seafood, and strip steaks to gnocchi, lasagna, and homemade pappardelle with wild-boar Bolognese. Assembled from first-rate ingredients and served with grace in a gorgeous dining room, Café Toscano's food hits all the right chords.
  • Casa D'Angelo

    893 E. Aurora Rd., Macedonia Akron/Summit County

    330-467-9699

    Despite its small size, Casa D'Angelo has a remarkably large and varied menu of Italian meals, including some you aren't likely to find anywhere else. Excellent choices include lemony Chicken alla Palermo and the creamy Veal Gamberetti Luigi with shrimp.
  • Casa D'Angelo Mentor

  • Chinato

    2079 E. 4th St. Downtown/Flats/Warehouse District

    216-298-9080

    Chinato makes diners feel special with redefined Italian dishes served in a contemporary setting. Start with glistening crudo or a bowl of unabashedly salty seafood fritto misto. Chinato's pastas are lush, dreamy and (fortunately) available in half portions. Entrées include buttery skate wing, Amarone-braised beef and brilliant porchetta.
  • Cibréo Italian Kitchen

    1438 Euclid Ave. Downtown/Flats/Warehouse District

  • 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.

    216-321-7355

    A fine choice for families, this bright, contemporary pizza parlor offers freshly made pies, wholesome salads and a concise selection of beer and wine, including eight microbrews on draft. Friendly staffers take small fry in stride, and while Mom and Dad unwind, the kiddies can safely watch the chefs at work from behind a glass partition.

  • 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. $$$
  • Ferrante Winery & Ristorante

    5585 St. Rt. 307, Geneva Eastern OH

    440-466-VINO

  • Giuseppe's

    32 W. Aurora Rd., Northfield Akron/Summit County

    330-467-1108

    Blink your eyes as you zip through town, and you're likely to miss this little Italian restaurant — and that would be a shame, because the selection is broad, the preparations are sophisticated, and the prices are reasonable. For dessert, don't miss the mascarpone-dense, barely sweetened, homemade tiramisu.
  • Guarino's

    12309 Mayfield Rd. East Side/University Circle/Little Italy

    216-231-3100

    Established in 1918, Guarino's is one of Cleveland's oldest restaurants and is still a family operation. While the decor tends toward Victoriana, the kitchen's pasta, veal and seafood dishes are all Italian.
