Super awesome pasta combined with Zomato's best offers make it a best bet for a dinner outing.
Pizza lovers will definitely love this place.
Little Italy is the chain of Italian restaurant in Pune and Mumbai.
Location - Their outlet in Shivaji Nagar is huge, spacious and classic. Best place for family dining, office gathering and offcourse for a romantic date.
Food - we ordered ravioli nero al and risotto 4 Formagi and last but not least pizza mellino along with two cocktails
Taste was amazing, ravioli was a surprise to taste buds and delight to our eyes.. risotto was damn.. full of flavours..
And pizza was delicious..we ordered it thin crust wood burn pizza.. vegetable toppings chosen were blending in perfectly with humungous amout of cheese (we asked for some extra of it)😋😋
P.S. - Zomato gold made all of these come into our budget!

It was pretty serene when we visited this place. It had just rained and was very beautiful. The food was quite up to the mark and zomato gold made it under the budget. I specially liked the ravioli.
Craving for authentic Italian, we ordered from Little Italy during the lockdown. The limited menu in their language was relatively extensive in ours 😀. The staff was very courteous. And the delivery person very polite. Food was as usual, very tasty. We esp loved the Barbaresca Pasta and the Arrabiata. Instructions were followed to the T and delivery was hassle free and on time. Special Thank you to Lojo and Mohnish for their really prompt responses and interaction which was genuine.
Been their before lockdown. We have ordered 2 pizzas. The size of pizza is fair as per price.
We have ordered
Classic wood burn - fantasy pizza: It comes with lots of cheese and vegetables.
Pizza Bianca e nero: It comes with black base and was not that much tasty as expected.
Service -4/5
Ambiance- 4.5/5
Value for money. Thank you
Brilliant food, whatever you may plan to order.... Although we were expecting something very different when we ordered hummus... It was a flat bread pizza! So do take along someone who understands how to read their menu!
Yet, it was another wonderful experience and they sure know how to make their customers happy :)
All in all we had a fabulous time which i feel is truly exceptional for a pure veg restaurant! Thank you Little Italy!
Excellent service by towseef good cake

We went there on some weekend and the reason was actually winning the #FitzaChallenge perhaps instead of eating diet food we also ate the normal food and yes it was irresistible.
In most good parts of Pune, we have Little Italy. I wish i had visited Bund Garden Road branch perhaps Shivaji Nagar, next to Pune Central it was.
But really an amzing place.
well, now i hv started categorizing my reviews in Location, Items tried, Recommendations, Price, Food taste, Ambience, Service and finally the overall ratings. so here goes my review -
1. Location : As mentioned above Ganeshkhind road one. Near PuneCentral, Shivaji Nagar and Chinchwad. You can find branches all across pune in Lulla nagar, Bund garden (very 1st branch across the globe) and off course Shivaji Nagar. So we can say they choose prime areas and are really good to go. Locaion gets 4.3/5.
2. Item Tried : Now like other upscale italian places they do have index-numbering system for each of the menu served. We tried Soup of Mushroom called "Al Funghi Cappucino", then in starters we tried "Pale Di Potato" and Nachos with Cheese Salsa. From the starters section the Cappucino made from Mushroom was beyond amazing. My food partner being fan of (Non-Veg first) Mushrooms (then) loved it. The potato starter was good with the sauce served and made of only potato skin although a bit spicy for all (We 6 people went for this dinner) of us. Moving ahead, Nachos were best. I have tried them at many places but this surely stands on the top, very first on the list of " Best Nachos Serving Place".
Now about the main course : We tried Sicilia pizza from healthy menu section as well as the normal one, we had Pasta Barbaresca one in Penne and one in Ravioli, Pizza Bianca E Nero and Pizza Mellino. So Pasta somehow the sauce wasnt juicy or may be to me no one beats "Le Plazir" / for that matter even Prem's so they couldnt win my heart here in Pasta but Ravioli was really nice. Best stuffed and drying sufficiently made it really REALLY good. On the other hand, i never loved Pizza this much. Sicilia obviously we tried both the healthy and normal one and without any doubt the later was better. Then comes Milliano with Brocolli was also really nice. We asked them if we can get thin crust and they made it for us. So fantastic Pizza. Now comes hero of the Dinner taaaaa daaaaaaaaaa "Bianca E Nero". Now let me tell you this was made from Edible Charcoal and was in BLACK COLOUR. The very first time i ate a pizza in black color. Amazing this was. Perfect amount of cheese and veggies. To make someone happy they have the recipe of this amazing Bianca Pizza. Surprisingly, everyone from the visit their loved this Pizza. Sagla fikke padel ya Pizza chya samor. Really nice. Noiceeeeeeeeeee!
And lastly we ended it with Tiramasu. OMG! How can this Tiramisu be thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis amazing. Yummmmm and beyond. Amazing and beyond. Delicious and beyond. Relishing and i still relish and can sink in that plate of tiramisu. Beautifully decorated. They made this tiramisu with maybe a strong layer of cheese in the bottom and then whipped cream layer, huge one above it, sprinkled with cocoa powder and powdered sugar and with 2 choco ganache balls or mayb nutella balls or dont know what it was but was too too too gooooooood.
In this way my Food Journey to my Tummy was Happy at Little Italy. Ratings 4.8/5, for the wide range of options yeah!
3. Recommends : Al Funghi Cappuccino, Bianca Pizza and Tiramisu.
4. Price : Well, as i say its an upscale or top notch place the price rises accordingly. Each good Pizza with average to optimum toppings will cost you approximately 800 Rupees. Pasta near about 600-800 Rupees. Soups were for 300-350 and they said one cannot make one by two of it. Desserts around and above 365. So overall we can say its an expensive but worth a visit. I have decided to reserve this place for "Exclusive Special Events" and this means i am omitting my B'Day from it since its this expensive. Ofcos, if anyone wants to take me out for lunch / diner i am ready. :D :P :D and also if they assure me to provide some good amount of discount. Considering that I write reviews and am verified. ehehhehe. Jokes apart , here they get 2/5.
5. Ambience : Wonderful. Welcoming. Systematic. Well organized. And Smiling. The people wokring here specifically guys are so so so handsome. Where r u guys getting them from? Italy iteself? So tall, so handsome and so wonderful. Anyway, the lights are little low but really good. They have USB lamps kept on each table. Chairs, Tables and overall everything is comfortable. Also very spacious. You will never feel crowded here. Very nice place. Mister Towseef was our host and he did his job perfectly. Wil rate him and them 4.2/5.
6. Food Taste : Needless to say they serve amazing food. More to try!! 4.6 / 5.
7. Service : Was good. People are welcoming and very polite. Soft spoken staff. All good. 4.1/5.
8. Overall Ratings : So overall they get 4/5.
Asif Mir gave us really good service and the food was amazing.
Amazing taste and great service by Mr Towseef AH. Very good response and nice suggestions by him.
Would love to visit again.
Towseef was amazing . Well mannered .
Towseef ah is very good to help us
It was a great experience overall. Aasif mir was very courteous and helped us in ordering the special dishes which was suitable for our pallette. All in all, this is the best option for having authentic Italian food in pune.
Aasif Mir was our server. Pasta was good. And the attitude was polite and good.
Great Food and specially service from Towseef.AH was really good.
Great experience with Mr Asif mir
Aasif Mir and staff have been very hospitable. The food was excellent and I'd totally recommend this place.
Visited this branch during a friend's party and it was a really huge branch. They have a dance floor for holding small private parties and dancing. Their food isn't ever a disappointment for me. Loved it here.
Authentic Italian food. Soup was fantastic. And we ordered black base pizza which was thin crust and minimal toppings, the toppings were nicely balanced, 5/5 for the pizza
Lastly the dessert was good 4/5 could have been better
Really very pleased with the Service provided by Mr.Towseef AH .
He has a good knowledge of the variety of Italian dishes and suggested a few of the very nice dishes .
Attended v well by manager Tawseef H. Helped in customising child's food.
Great place and specially one person name TOWSEFF Ahmad.. He was a great guys and suggested best italian pasta and 🍕.. Overall great experience.. Love to come back..
The food here is really tasty. The service provided is excellent. Mr. Touseef has been very kind and keen in his services.
Overall the restaurant is really amazing.
Tauseef Amhed was extremely polite and helpful in suggesting the best dishes as per our taste. Very friendly also
Tried this outlet and food items for the first time. Ordered Passato Di Verdure soup. A different kind of vegetable soup. Liked it. Later had Pasta Del Barone and a Quesadilla. Food, ambience and service very good. Will visit again. ❤️
However, the valet services are some thing to be concerned off, I left my car with the valet with a full tank of diesel... N when going back ¼ tank was empty .. it's like they stole diesel... Or were using the AC without our permission.. just coz one has a car given in the valet does not give the staff the permission to use the car as their own!
If you crave for a amazing white sauce pasta, this is your place to go
I've been going to this place as a kid. Love the food especially the pasta. The place is suitable for people of all age groups. The ambiance is amazing. The chocolate boom is a must try!❤
Little Italy has always been the family’s favourite for enjoying authentic Italian cuisine. We change our menu every time we go so that we get to taste different pasta or pizza besides they have Mexican too if you are in the mood. With three branches that I know of, we can quickly get into the nearest one,whenever we want to. And for dessert, all of us dig into their caramel custard with gusto
Good place with really good ambiance. There is a great variety of Italian dishes . We tried cheese loaded nachos and two different varieties of pizzas , the taste was very authentic. As well as the service there was really good. So far ,a really good experience.
Authentic Italian food
Would suggest go for buffet.
They serve various types of salads, dips and sides
Also there is a live counter. Ask for 'today's special menu'
Hello ,I would like to thank Ali Hussain the guy who was helping us with food. He was very courteous, and was there all throughout the meal. I have never seen someone so concerned about the guests like he was and making sure we got the food at the right time. Cheers to him .
Also wanted to highlight , when we gave him tip someone conveniently grabbed that and took it away. Please reward him for his service and nature and make sure that he gets his tip.
One of the best Italian in Pune. Being a non- vegeterian person, there are very few vegeterian restaurants that make up to the same level and little italy is one of them. Courteous staff, great ambiance and delicious food makes this restaurant a must-visit.
We tried,
Cheese nachos(4.5/5)
Sicilia pizza(4.5/5)
Pink sauce pasta(creamy) (6/5)👨🍳
Flat bread (3.5/5)
Tiramisu (6/5) 👨🍳
Choco Bomb(5/5)
The best place to have pasta, nachos and desserts to have in Pune.
Recommendation- pasta barbaresca (raviolli), chocolate bomb, nachos with cheese.
Go to place for Italian food in Pune. Very good food and a wide variety of options to choose from. Their mashed potato is also delicious in addition to the enchiladas, pastas and pizzas.
Ravioli was perfect !! Cannoli is a must have dessert which was nicely plated ! Garlic bread was good too !!!

One day we were craving Italian food and to satisfy that craving our feet took us to Little Italy, one of the most recommended and reputed restaurant for Italian Food in Pune. We were greeted politely at the door and were given seating promptly. The menu had many Italian items and ingredients listed on it, which promotes the understanding of Italian cuisine and it was fun to Google those words to satisfy my curiosity.
Now for the review:
The food- We ordered Sicilia, a contempory wood burn pizza. Sicilia comes in two bases either thick or thin, we asked for the thin crust. The pizza was topped with fresh tomato sauce, mushrooms, garlic, pickled onions, sundried tomatoes, chilli oil, fresh basil and mozzarella. It was my first time trying a pizza with garlic on it but the garlic added a lovely flavour to it. The pizza was enough for two people and very well done.
The ambience- The restaurant had golden lights and soft instrumental music playing in the background.
One tiny thing which irked us was that the plates which we were given were not clean so we had to request a change which was promptly taken care of.
The staff- The person taking our order was courteous, helpful and polite and kept a vigilant eye on our needs.
I will definitely visit Little Italy again to try some other items which caught my eye! :)
If you are a lasagna lover then you must definitely try it here. Finely layered, cooked cheesy lasagna that will melt in your mouth. Indeed a myst visit place.
This place has got perfect ambience.. Even food is also good...
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
This place is a heaven for authentic Italian cuisine lovers, truly a fine dine experience. Valet parking is available. The seating is comfortable and the ambiance is very classy with peaceful music. We chose the buffet instead of ordering.
Cream of Mushroom soup: highly recommended!
Salads:
Caesar salad- a classic
Roasted tomato salad- smokey flavour
Spicy corn salad- yum
Appetizers:
Cheese corn balls- loved it!
Nachos with salsa and cheese- best I've tasted so far
Sauteed mushrooms- again, one of its kind
Assorted canapés were also very tasty
We tried two vegetarian pizzas which were mild in taste with thin crust- just the way I like it
Enchiladas with beans was also very tangy.
We tried Ravioli with spinach and ricotta cheese and a tomato based sauce- one of the best pastas I've eaten
Also we ate Penne pasta in red sauce- again wonderful
Desserts which i tried and loved:
Tiramisu, Pancakes, Chocolate bomb with icecream, mocha cupcake, blueberry cheesecake.
Overall, i had a great time. Highly recommended!
Pizza, lasagna and mocktails are a must try.. definately an expensive place.. some of the dishes like bruschetta is not worth paying 400-500 odd rupees.. i wont recommend this dish at all.. for foodies who doesn't matter about money can definately try this place but for those who are searching value for money place, this isn't worth it..
As always Little Italy never fails to disappoint you .Being the best they can be ! 🥂
Legit Italian fare. It is so legit that I had to Google the dishes to know what they were before placing the order 😀
We visited for dinner and the restaurant was fairly occupied. They have ample tables with two seating sections. There is a valet so you don't have to worry about parking woes!
I order the special tacos and the tortellini with mushroom stuffing in cheese. The pasta was great. The mushroom stuffing going v well with the cheese sauce. The tacos was okay. Had the charcoal lemonade and fruit punch in drinks and both were well made.
The service was quick. No complains. Will visit again to try their wood fired pizzas.
Right next to Central mall, I had the best white sauce pasta here. This place could definitely hurt your pockets a bit but that would be worth it. Also, try the tiramisu cake here. Loved the food!!
The staff is very courteous and professional. Do not miss chocolate bomb for desserts!! All pizzas are good.
Pasta! 😍 It is certainly a Little Italy in there keeping in view the food 😉
Ambience was super good. No complaints. No complaints on food as well. They provide awesome cake for birthday as well. I ordered a mango flavoured cake. It was small one and it was overpriced but it is definitely good.
Little Italy is my all time favorite Italian food restaurant ! Their nachos are absolutely THE best. Apart from that , their various pizzas and pastas and desserts are amazing too! Their lunch buffet offers variety of good options ! The staff is polite and friendly! Their chocolate bomb is a must have
Food -9/10
Service-9/10
Ambience-10/10

Worth mentioning are following food items:-
1. Minestrone soup
2. Bruschetta
3. Live salad counter serving hot salad.
4. Primavera pasta
5. Tacos
6. Brownie with ice-cream
Rest all the food items in buffet were good too.
Extra-ordinary and warm service by the staff.
Good Ambience.
A place worth visiting in Pune.
Heaven for italian food lover, mouthwatering food nice ambience, Courteous staff. Had tons of varieties here. Pizzas, Pastas, Risotto, Ravioli, Cheese balls to name a few. Everything was awesome.

If you wanna have amaxing Italian or Mexican food. Do turn only to Little Italy. We ordered. Mediterranean pizza and Chimi-Changa, both of which were completely amazing and made us lick our fingers! The ambience and service is also highly appreciated
The best italian ever had the best chain hospitality was too good the food quality was very good ambiance was good loved the chocolate bomb a lot
Italian Food Galore!
Loved the peaceful beautiful & welcoming ambiance. Each dish ordered was served very quickly and had a very authentic taste. Staff was very courteous.We in a group preferred a-la-carte system and got prompt table service.
The menu has a good selection. Most of the pizzas are very tasty.Their pastas are out of the world it never fails on the expectations.
Little heavy on the pocket but worth it!!
In Frame📸 : Nachos with Refried beans with quesadillas and mocktails
It's a nice place with average ambience serving authentic Italian. Advance reservations is recommended as waiting is there. Valet parking is available. However on the downside service was very slow and washrooms were dirty.
Very authentic Italian and Mexican food experience. Service is very good too. The portion size is very small, so we have to order accordingly. There are different types of menu from Monday to Friday and Sunday there is lunch buffet which is worth spending on it

"I recently visited Little Italy Restaurant for their Mexican Food Fiesta, and it was an absolute fiesta of flavors! The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, with colorful decor that set the perfect mood. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had a memorable dining experience.
The variety of Mexican dishes on the menu was outstanding, offering something for everyone's taste ,every dish was a burst of authentic Mexican goodness. The flavors were rich and well-balanced, and the ingredients were fresh.
The highlight of the feast was their perfectly crafted margaritas, which complemented the meal perfectly. Whether you prefer classic lime or adventurous flavors, their margarita selection will not disappoint.
The portions were generous, leaving us feeling fully satisfied by the end of the meal. And to top it all off, the dessert selection was simply divine, especially their indulgent churros!
Overall, Little Italy Restaurant's Mexican Food Fiesta was a delightful experience. If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine or just looking for a great dining spot with a lively ambiance, I highly recommend paying them a visit. I can't wait to return and try more of their mouthwatering dishes. ¡Viva la comida Mexicana!"
🎉 My partner and I toasted my birthday at Little Italy 🇮🇹, an experience worth raving about! 🤩 Our culinary journey kicked off with a refreshing Apple Juice & Elderberry Sparkle Mocktail 🍹 and a unique Charcoal Lemonade 🖤🍋. The star of the night? Napoli Pizza 🍕 - crispy, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable!
Service? Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our waiter was attentive, ensuring our meal was perfect. The restaurant's ambiance? Like a snug Italian hideaway - warm, intimate, and oh so charming! 🕯️🏰
All in all, Little Italy was a birthday hit 🎂 and a spot we'd heartily recommend for any occasion. Whether it's a celebration 🎈 or just a meal with dear ones, it's sure to delight! 😊
I recently dined at this restaurant and was blown away by the quality of the food and service. The staff was friendly and attentive, the ambience was great with both indoor and outdoor seating options, and the Italian and Mexican dishes were delicious. I highly recommend trying the Pasta Barbarresca and Sicilia pizza. Additionally, they offer a Sunday buffet that is definitely worth checking out. Overall, a fantastic dining experience.
We had an afternoon brunch buffet. The service was good and the food was also decent. Lots of great options. Though I would like to try the a la carte menu next time. Unfortunately, the outdoor seating was quite warm despite having coolers(which weren't that great tbh) along with lots of mosquitoes :(
Good Italian dishes. Only Vegetarian food is available.
Italian entree quite good. Liked risotto. Couldn't get lasagna but ravioli excellent. Rich taste. No complaints about food quality.
Service was slow. Especially on buffet tables, as lasagna container was empty all time. Many items needed refill but weren't. Diners had to wait for items including cutlery. That was Sunday, may be no such problem on weekday.
Ambience was good, mood lighting and spacious seating. It's good for young folks but elderly folks in family wouldn't like much.
Nice place for authentic Italian food. Service was excellent. Captain was very helpful and attentive.
I ordered pasta Barberesca and cheese Nachos which were very good in taste, one must try. Atmosphere was awesome. It was bit expensive and on top of that they charged 5% service charge which do not make sense to me.
As always the recent experience at Little Italy was quite satisfying... We went there to celebrate a birthday, and got a special 15% BD discount. The staff clicked some nice pictures to make our visit memorable.
For Ganeshotsav, Little Italy has come up with a special modak box. It's quite cool!
The food is delicious, must try their ravioli pasta, cheese balls, and blueberry cheesecake. The service provided by manager Siddhik is outstanding.
A vegetarian place so good that It's my first preference always for the best Italian in town.
These guys had recently come up with the Mexican fest and we absolutely loved the food they served.
We started with the feta and Spinach quesdillas which were fantastic followed by a tex mex Burrito Bowl which I just couldn't get enough of 😋
Also had a nice mocktail that went well with the delicious food and ended the meal with a fantastic italian tiramisu.
