Best Italian Restaurants in Madison South

We started going to Nostrana right after it opened almost 20 years ago-the service,food,cocktails and wine selection have always been excellent • Many of the dishes would fit perfectly in Sorrento or Firenze ,while others have a PNW style •all are delicious ••they have a great selection of Italian wines & Amaros and tasty cocktails-we prefer looking at the Amalfi Coast or Golfo di Napoli but Nostrana is on par & everyone speaks English unlike many other Great Italian Restaurants •it’s generally a 5 star experience in my opinion (and I’m fairly critical)Definitely worth a try if you’ve never been

We used to go to Lucca often until we moved to Beaverton now it's more difficult to get there. We have great memories of the food and service and those still are very much a part of the experience. The service was top notch--friendly, helpful, and going beyond what was expected. The wine list seems smaller and less interesting. The cocktails were more interesting. The food was quite good but not outstanding. We enjoyed returning and will almost certainly go back again.

I am obsessed with the food here! I have to say the Brûléed Squash and Burrata was soooo tasty!! The crispy chicken confit’ also was amazing, it was so tender. It just fell right off the bone. The skin was perfectly crisp. We were celebrating our 13th anniversary and they brought us a couple of complementary glasses of bubbly with some Italian wedding cookies. Grazie Mille!! Will definitely be back

We love this restaurant. The restaurant is always excellent, professional and friendly. We have eaten here at least a half-dozen times and never not enjoyed the experience. The food is always very good, authentic and fun. But, the service is exceptional.

Great food and friendly service. Everything was perfect.
