As it gets colder outside, nothing beats comforting Italian food. Whether you are in the mood for chicken parmesan, chicken Alfredo, or ravioli, tons of great Italian food restaurants are serving up delicious meals in Louisville. Here are the three best places to try near our apartments in Louisville. 

Ciao Ristorante

This neighborhood spot is so close to the Axis on Lexington, you could walk to pick up your meal. All the dishes are carefully thought out and offer plenty of food. No matter what dish you go for, you really can’t go wrong, but locals rave about their homemade deep-fried ravioli and their huge meatballs. For your main dish, try the gnocchi alla vodka or the chicken parmesan. All the pasta is homemade and the portions are huge, so you’ll have leftovers for days! As an added bonus, you can order wine or alcohol to complement your meal. Ciao Ristorante is open for carry-out, curbside pickup, or delivery Monday-Saturday. 

The Comeback Inn

No list about Italian food in Louisville would be complete without mentioning The Comeback Inn. The old-school Italian spot has been a mainstay of Italian food in town for years, consistently earning the title of the Best Italian Restaurant in the city. Their no-frills authentic menu earns them the title. Customers praise their sandwiches and pizza, but what really shines is their homemade pasta. Regulars also rave about their jumbo ravioli and the chicken Alfredo. The Comeback Inn is open for carry-out for dinner only, daily. 

Porcini

Another long-time local favorite, Porcini offers quality Italian food to Louisville locals. You’ll love their handcrafted dishes. Try the Gnocchi Con Salsiccia or Penne Carbonara if you want something a little more traditional. They are open for carry-out for dinner only, Monday-Saturday.
