The RibEye wasn't available at that time, we settle for New York. Still, one of the best steak that I had. Hope to try their Ribeye soon. Their pasta is good for sharing. You definitely have to try their Seafood cioppino. You can taste their mussels and clams!
Everything was on point once again on this visit to Italianni’s restaurant, one of the premier brands of The Bistro Group. My only minor complaint is the price; it’s an establishment you can’t afford to visit all the time. We were four, and our bill was around Php 3,000.
We started with the Italianni’s Salad, packed with greens and some fruits. It was superb but could use more servings of avocado given its tag of Php 595.
My favorite here was the Herb Roasted Chicken, a platter that’s complete with protein, veggies, and carbs. I love that the poultry was spiced and well-seasoned.
If ordering pizza, I recommend going for the Quattro Staggioni. It’s four kinds of thin-crust slices in one go- pepperoni, mushroom & artichokes, shrimp & black olives, and all cheese.
On pasta, the Bolognese was good but too sweet for me. My companions did like it.
food were as great-tasting as it looked, although the seafood cioppino couldve been more tasty. im rating our overall experience a 5 bec of the fantastic service from our waiter. im really sorry i forgot his name. my toddler accidentally bumped his head on the table and the waiter immediately took the initiative to offer an ice pack. thanks so much.
Compliments to the server, Sir Lester, and the floor manager for being accommodating and very attentive to the needs of the guests. Delectable dishes, salad was excellent, the dressing was on point, ribs were fall of the bone, the sauce they used were not too spicy, balanced flavor of spices, ending this great feast with their boconne dolce di mango.
Italianni's is a safe choice when you're looking to eat Italian food. The service is good and the waiters accommodating. There's a lot to choose from on their menu. The seating is a bit cramped but overall good experience.
Good food. That crust is divine and the freshness of that pomodoro sauce is awesome.
Good ambience.
Attentive wait staff (although they like approaching to ask questions when I'm about to put food in my mouth or are chewing).
A bit expensive though, really.
We were seated immediately when we got there. The menu was given promptly. We ordered a lot of food like the ribs, some marinara and pizza but I particularly liked the Truffled Chicken and Mushroom pasta. I enjoyed our meal but the downside for me was when one waiter approached us to offer a membership card for the group of restos that Italianni's is a part of and did that before taking our orders. Other than that I think everything went fairly well.
Worth the price! Their pasta serving is good for 2-3. The chicken we ordered is yummy perfect with the rice! Pricey but tummy fulfilling! A must try!!
I went here with friends without reservation, but since we arrived during "dead hour" we got a table because there are only few people dining here. For appetizer we had the truffle chips which are so good I wish there's a commercial version of it. The pizza and pasta are delightful as well. The staff is friendly but I wish the one selling their membership card of the restaurant group be not as annoying. Ambiance is good... as long as there are only a few people in it. Well to be fair I think that our table was the noisiest during that time. It shows that we enjoyed a lot.
This one’s a busy branch, we dined at off peak hours on a Sunday but the restaurant’s bustling. We almost had a hard time catching a server’s attention so we could order, good thing 1 of their managers came to our table to assist us herself. That was greatly appreciated.
Calamares solo was bitin for my hubby and I since it was so good. Best paired with the red tomato based sauce it came with.
Sicilian salad was as usual very good but I had to commend that their version in this branch is more colorful and has more mangoes! I love that the mangoes were very ripe and sweet as well as the grapes. We requested for grilled chicken to be added versus the usual chicken chunks they offer, we just had to pay for the add on.
Carbonara was yum. Solo was enough for us though since we were trying to lessen our carbs intake as much as we can.
We were able to use our BFF card and it was so sulit as usual.
Great service and authentic food. The manager had a great eye for the operation and took her time to teach the staff about the standards in service.

When my friends & i ran out of dining options to choose from, we went for our default choice, which was @italiannisph because you can NEVER go wrong with their food! They’ve been serving the Filipino palette for years! I have personally never encountered a bad visit whenever I dined there. Food and service remain conistently great! Last night, we went with unconventional toppings on our pizza: proscuitto, peaches and balsamic glaze. 🤤💕 It was definitely the highlight to our meal, which was perfectly paired with classic favorites, the Sicilian salad and fried calamari 😍 This isn’t a sponsored post! 🤣 I just love eating here whenever I get the chance. 😁👍🏻
Was invited to Iraluani’s and I just enjoyed the place food portion is awesome service is great atmosphere
Put an order and it did not take that long they are on top of you when it comes to your need Love it
My favorite pasta place!!! Though it’s a bit expensive but I think that its worth it. If I can eat here everyday, I would! Bit I can’t do that because I don’t think its okay to spend almost six hundred pesos for a plate of pasta. But you can eat here may once to thrice a month, it really depends on your preference.
The staffs here were very friendly and polite. Super love their service as well as the food!
Dish : Baked Ziti
Competent dish, good for two. Couldn't really taste any pesto sauce, they went light on the chilli flakes too (I prefer more). The accompanying garlic bread was nothing spectacular.
Good service.
Oh we love the fresh bread, the pasta, chicken, the salmon. Italiannis is one of the few strong restaurant in the industry with all the restaurants sprouting all over the place. I say classic is still good. Glad theyve maintained it.
Had lunch with my mom and my little girl just today...we get to eat here once in a while..had my cravings here when i was pregnant last year...anyways we ordered pomelo something hahaha omg 🤔....its the newest in their salad...its a MUST try. its delish. it has white cheese...and watermelon...YUMMY! the main course we had the chicken and spinach angel hair pasta....its so delish as well...mushroom..tomatoes and chicken...perfect blend...and lastly for dessert we had the mango panacota. flavorful...tasty! 🤗🤗 and i had fresh fruit shake watermelon for my drink. another satisfied food lover hahaha...thinking where next 😆...the staffs were accomodating and the service is fast with a smile...

Pros: Courteous staff welcoming you with warm smile and greetings, place is not busy, awesome ambience excellent for meeting friend or even dining alone, delicious food! A little bit pricy but worth it.
Cons: waited a little for the staff to take my order. They don't roam around a lot and I think they are understaffed.. mind you, I was there during lean hours so I can't imagine at peak hours!
Overall, I enjoyed the experience. The food (Chicken Italianni's) I ordered was filled with different and exploding flavours! It was steaming hot when the staff served me my food but lo and behold, I didn't even notice because it was just right in so many levels. I can also taste the freshness of the ingredients and I got fully convinced about the authenticity of the dish. It was totally not rushed at all. It can be a good venue for dates or meeting friends but I might think twice if I want to just casually dine being a bit pricey, nor go here to celebrate something momentous as I don't think it's grand enough.
I went here to celebrate my dad's birthday. The service was a mixed bag, but generally good. The front waiter or manager was gracious enough to ask if I wanted to keep the cake I brought in their fridge. I obliged and asked if they could sing/greet my dad. To my surprise, I didn't have to cue them since after our meal, the waiters came with the cakes (well, their complementary was ice cream) and they sang the Italianni's birthday song. It was definitely entertaining.
For the food, almost all were good except for the ribs. I don't know what part they serve, but it wasn't the usual ribs. It was just off, dry and not tasty at all. I'll stick to their pasta and pizza next time.
I like some of the items on the menu. Some are overpriced for the quality of the dishes. But overall still one of the better Italian bistros in the country.
I want to acknowledge the staff at this particular branch. Nice and friendly. 😊
This place is great! The treatment we got was unbelievable. My son was given an ice cream worth 110pesos for free so that he would stop crying. He was also given worksheets to color so he can relax. I love the generous servings of the complimentary bread. In totality, we had fun. Their food is perfect.

The service was good the crew were very attentive and accommodating. The price was slightly more expensive than others, but still fairly priced because the food quality is amazing. The Pizza tastes fresh and natural and not overwhelming with dairy. The Spinach and Artichoke dip was creamy and rich. The BBQ Ribs was so soft and tender it literally falls off from the bone, the sauce has just the right amount of spice, it's a bit sour sweet and spicy just the way I like it.
Everything that we ordered were great in terms of the quality of the ingredients and taste, except for the Spaghetti Pomodoro which lacked flavor (the al dente pasta was still perfect though).
The service was slow - we had to wait for more than 10 minutes just to get our bill.
Super love the Italian cooking... And I tried something new to me few days ago. It's a ginger lychee beverage, surprisingly so good and I want some more. Thumbs up and friendly staffs...
Yep, another late review:😜
Bf and I spend valentines dinner here. Signature Ribs, Parmesan Crusted Fish and Pesto rice. Succulent and scrumptious ribs, smokey, tender and savory. As for the fish, it's crispy on the outside, soft and creamy on the inside with tartar sauce. Pesto rice was complemented the fish and the ribs.
Every thing was satisfying with food and service. The only downside was the "outside seating" was kinda filthy which was kinda unlikely with Italiannis.
#LATEPOST
I personally think this branch is like any other Italianni's. Ambiance and service is good. Food as always maintained quality and taste.
For those who haven't been in an Italianni's before, it's basically an Italian restaurant that serves pasta, rice meal, and other food.
Great pasta! The servings are also big, so you'll get full. I don't mind that they're more expensive compared to other pasta places because the ambiance is good.

Located at the scenic 2nd floor of Eastwood Mall, Italianni’s is my go to restaurant when I have that extra cash and craving for some large and authentic servings of pizza and pasta. Amongst my favorites are, Sicilian Salad with extra Chicken, Truffle Chicken and Mushroom Pasta and of course, Caprese Pasta. Most items are good to share. Plus, they give unlimited serving of their freshly baked bread – love when its hot off the oven and you dip it in dark vinegar and olive oil. For dessert, my favorite is the frozen cheesecake good to share for 2 or hungry sweet tooth.
My favorite restaurant in Eastwood. I go here often and order their seafood and rice =)) I know, it's not really their specialty but it taste super good so who cares!? :)) I never really liked their pasta, salad or pizza though so it was quite disappointing. Their calamares is good too! :)
Date with the wife and we have to wait for a few hours for the movie. We went around Eastwood mall to see where we feel like having lunch. After standing in line for an hour to purchase movie tickets (BvS) my wife wanted a place where she can sit on a couch. We checked out a few restos but most of the couches were occupied except this place. Again not my first time and I wanted to try a new place but she was adamant in sitting on a couch so we went in. We ordered ceasar salad and pepperoncino/chorizo pasta. The salad was above average but the pasta was excellent. It was a new item on the menu. The one thing that they need to improve was their air-conditioning. I know its summer and the heat is sweltering so all the more they should do something, right?
I had a quick lunch at #ItaliannisPh #EastwoodMall before going to David's Salon Eastwood Branch for a haircut. I grabbed a Smoked Salmon Sandwich ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 served with Truffle Fries ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 and I made my own English Breakfast Iced Tea ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
Heaven! 😜 The Smoked Salmon Sandwich taste like Caviar Pie, maybe because of the Cream Cheese they used. And the Truffle Fries... speechless. Yum! 😍
I used my Premium Bistro Card and Discount Voucher to avail discounts and the total bill is Php39.00. Not bad! 😜 Smart right? Hehehe 😃👏🏻

Took my special lady here for Valentines Dinner. The pork chop was fantastic along with the mushrooms, potatoes and grilled spinach. My lady had the grilled chicken. The food was very tasty and cooked just right. The service was great. The cost of the two meals and one glass of wine was super great and considered to be well under priced for what we received. Looking forward to eating here again.
I liked the food! The place is a bit small but cozy. The servers were kind and accomodating. I loved their salad! Over all, a good place to eat for a large group...it's fulfilling!

I know that Itallianni's falls under fhe commercial type of restos but it's just so sad to see that their prices are that high for something that are not well seasoned. However, I do give points for their generous serving and fresh ingredients. But hopefully they step their game up. They may be getting a bir "old"? Hopefully they add something to entice their loyal customers. That includes our family, btw. We always eat here and sometimes it bums me out because some dishes are under seasoned for our family's palette.
However, if you do request them beforehand to add a few spices here and there, the dishes turn out pretty well, especially their pastas. :)
Our old time favorite italian place. We rarely visit italiani's anymore because of newly opened places that we must also try... but when we do, it never fails to satisfy our expectations.

One of my dad's favorite restaurants. We often dine at Italianni's when my dad's around Eastwood and even though I wasn't a fan before, I have come to like this restaurant because of their big servings that come with big Italian flavors.
My dad loves calamari so we always make it a point to order fried calamari for our appetizer. I think this rule applies to all restaurants, and I have a feeling that my dad is secretly out on the lookout for the best fried calamari platter in town. I would have to say though that Italianni's serves really great fried calamari. Very lightly-coated, not chewy at all, plus their marinara sauce is such a winner. Squeeze a little lemon juice on top of the calamari, dip in marinara, and you're all set.
All-time favorites include Margherita pizza, Lasagna and Herb Roasted Chicken. I was able to try their Truffle Fries Di Lussi before and they were great as well. And their Tiramisu is definitely a must-try!Always a good time with Italianni's. Wouldn't mind going back again and again!
I went here for my birthday. The food from the salads, pasta and chicken was exquisite. The staff were very competent. I got a free cake and a huge discount through their discount card.

Italianni's has been a long time family favorite, even way back when it was not as popular. I remember eating at Italianni's Eastwood when it was still located in front of Cybermall in an open space with a big parking lot. That was about 8 years ago I think? But then to make a better review for Zomato, I decided to go back once again.
The place has indeed grown more popular through the years. When we got there, at the second floor of Eastwood mall, the restaurant was filled and we were second in the waiting list. Inside the smell was incredible! When finally we were seated, we got a basket of bread served with a dip of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We usually add the parmesan cheese to this and dip the bread in it, the perfect combination!
For starters we got their Stuffed Mushroom which was roasted mushrooms topped with meat and various herbs, in a plate of creamy, cheesy sauce. We also ordered their Farmer's Bundle which came with a Rack of Baby Back Ribs, Herb Roasted Spring Chicken and Spaghetti Pomodoro. We also ordered Caprese Flat Bread which was like a thin crust pizza topped with tomatoes, basil and lots of mozarella cheese, and another pasta dish, a penne pasta with cheese and prosciutto on top. Finally, we got their grape shake, which is one drink you would see in only very few restaurants.
The Stuffed Mushrooms appetizer was so good! Yummy and kids didn't even mind that they were mushrooms! We were fighting for the last piece, haha! The penne pasta was yummy, but I wish there was more of the cheesy, creamy sauce. The chicken and spaghetti were just okay, but we loved the ribs! It was different from the BBQ sauce marinated type of American ribs - these ribs got their flavor from all the herbs and spices rubbed in them which matched perfectly. The way the ribs were cooked was also perfect! Their location may have changed but Italianni's still offers great food, fun to share with the whole family.

Italiannis is still one of the best Italian Restaurant I have ever dined in! Though their service is a bit slower than before but of course the food is still awesome!

We met up after work at the Eastwood mall in Libis, and we decided to try out the Italianni's there. We don't usually go to this place (at all) because it's expensive; but then we had a discount card :D. It was a busy place at the dinner hour, service was a little slow. It took a while before they got us the bread appetizer. Two slices of regular white bread (ciabatta?) and something with more herbs in it (also ciabatta?). It had an olive oil-balsamic vinegar dip and helped stave off the hunger for a while.
We had some of their Sicilian Chicken salad to start with. The dressing had a creamy and onion-y taste to it from what I remember. All in all very savory. Chesca liked the mix of romaine lettuce and sweet fruits. And I liked the fact there was meat in this dish. Win win for the two of us :). Also pretty filling.
I wanted to get my Garfield on and tried the Italian staple lasagna. It was nice and meaty, with a good amount of pasta layered in between. Rich and creamy sauce, too. If only there was like a tray of it. Maybe I'm just being a glutton, but I kind of like having twice as much lasagna in one sitting. Just me :D
With the discounts, the bill almost hit 800 bucks. Italianni's is a nice place to visit (and also an easy place to go since most malls have one), but I don't think you'd want to always eat there. Unless you're swimming in cash. Or you have a discount card. Regardless, you can almost always count on good food reaching you at an Italianni's. Just be prepared to pay for it :)
Italiannis offers great selection of pasta and salads. The servers were really nice to assist us to our table. Servings were good for two. Italian inspired restaurant that will surely make your stay memorable and will make you comeback for more.

The official website of Italianni's Philippines has the following as an introductory: "Traditionally, Italian restaurants have been owned by families using recipes and cooking skills inherited from the old country and served with warm-hearted hospitality. Italian restaurants have become synonymous with warmth, friendly atmosphere which aims to please their guests and make them feel right at home. At Italianni's, we believe in making our guests feel like they're in an Italian family villa."
We had a small gathering dubbed as a Christmas party with a few acquaintances and friends at an Italianni's Restaurant and I have to say we enjoyed all the dishes served to us - from the large pizzas to the tasty Sicilian salad with grapes, from the crunchy and soft Tuscan bread slices to the exquisite colorful drinks of bright red, orange and blue with slight mixes of alcoholic drinks, it was a delightful afternoon meal shared with old and new acquaintances.
Italianni's Alaskan Crab Dip, rich and creamy with chunks of white crab meat, perfect with the buttered garlic bread and pita. Its a great addition to Italianni's list of starters.
The contrasting flavors and textures of the Four Seasons Salad was a combination of fresh, crisp lettuce with seafood, fruits, cheese and a light vinaigrette.
The Sicilian Chicken Salad was the combination of sweet mangoes, grilled chicken and a sharp lemon mustard vinaigrette still makes this old favorite a standout.
Perfect for seafood lovers, the Creamy Crab Spaghetti with with chunks of crab meat in a rich white sauce was an excellent choice.
Too bad I don't have souvenir pictures of the three colorful drinks they served because everyone took a sip already before we realized we should be taking pictures to immortalize the memories...hehehe
The branch also offered an Italian ambiance that is conducive to a relaxing dining experience...Not so bright lights and plenty of decors to keep you interested. But the best of all, the servers are always there to assist you with a smile.
We had a great time, not just because we each came home with gifts from our generous sponsors, but also because we had a great meal at Italianni's Restaurant. The restaurant was an excellent choice for our mini gathering. Great food and service at Italianni's!
FYI - They also serve breakfast!
I love pasta and italian cuisine, and thats why I love Itallianis. They have this one of a kind recipes that you will definitely got hooked with. From pasta, salads and other meat recipes. We always order Baked Ravioli as a starter, Wiuld Mushroom Alfredo for pizza, Roast Pork Ribs Italian Style as main course and Caesar Salad. The food is really good and the taste is really awesome. I also enjoyed their Choco Espresso Frost, indeed its taste is very exceptional and italian. Definitely perfect for yourself and your family. The place will let you experience an Italian styled restaurant. And also the kids will love the place, because they allow the kids to design their own pizza. My three year old niece really enjoyed her time as we eat here.
Italiannis is always on the first list, we keep on coming back to this place because we really enjoy their food.
The place is very italian so you can feel that you are in Italy.
We always start with stuffed mushroom for 450php. And because we love fast food we ordered shrimp and asparagus Alfredo for 625php. Best this in italiannis is their pizza, where its regular flavor up to their specials the taste of their pizza is delightful. Wild mushroom alfredo 450 php.
Another good thing about them is they offer food for kids like create your own pizza. In that way kids also enjoy their stay in italiannis.
