Best Italian Restaurants in Norfolk

The food was excellent, just overpriced compared to other restaurants of the same level. The menu also needs an update. I wish it were more like Corfinio which is your other property. You need to include those amazing Brussel sprout appetizer that they have at Corfinio. Also, get rid of the TV, nobody wants to see the news while they are out enjoying dinner and trying to escape. We were seated directly across from the kitchen. While it is fun seeing things prepared, all the food runners, delivery orders, etc were all happening inches away from us which made the atmosphere less romantic.

We went to the resturant day after Valentine's day was very busy and our reservation was at 5;15 but we were seated right away never felt rushed. Our waitress Chloe was excellent so pleasant very attentive even with all her tables. There was no parking , but they actually had a van thst you followed and then was brought back and forth to your car very nice especially was snowing . Everything was delicious and hot even with the amount of patrons. The seafood stuffed mushrooms were to die for. Mary Ann P

Our server, Michelle, was terrific! Didn’t rush us but was there when we needed something. We were there at lunch and there aren’t too many Portuguese options on the lunch menu but you can ask for the dinner menu. It was almost full at lunch time -great to have really good Italian food nearby!!

We arrived on time and were greeted with a big smile from the hostess, Linda. Our table was waiting and Theresa, our waitress, came over and brought water and took our drink order. We had some delicious Pinot Grigio (Fini) and started with clams casino, which were cooked perfectly. We then had salads which were crisp and fresh. We both got chicken picatta served piping hot. For dessert we had the crème brûlée. The restaurant had a nice crowd and the dinner was a perfect 10. My friend and I were catching up and never felt rushed. Theresa knew exactly when to check on us and always made sure we had what we needed. Basil has always been a favorite of ours and as we walked out we made plans for our next visit. People say this is a hidden gem in Medfield and they’re not wrong. Outstanding experience!

Luciano’s in Wrentham is hands down one of the best Italian dining experiences you can have! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm, elegant, and inviting—just what you’d hope for in a classic Italian restaurant. The staff was exceptionally attentive, making us feel like honored guests, and the service was flawless from start to finish. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolute perfection! I had the bone-in veal parmesan special, and it was beyond incredible—perfectly breaded, tender, crispy outside and smothered in rich, flavorful tomato sauce with just the right amount of melted cheese. Every bite was divine! My mother had the Frutti di Mare special, and she couldn’t stop raving about it. The seafood was incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and beautifully plated—a true taste of the sea. What truly made the evening special was the personal touch. Luciano himself made the rounds, warmly greeting each table with such genuine hospitality. He even stopped by to say hello and personally wished my mother a happy birthday, making the night feel even more special. It’s rare to find a restaurant where the owner is so hands-on and passionate about ensuring every guest has a memorable experience. Between the exquisite food, impeccable service, and warm, welcoming atmosphere, Luciano’s is an absolute gem. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving authentic Italian cuisine, this place is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back! Grazie mille, Luciano! 🍷🍝🎉
