Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Very very very rude with terrible food and service.

Best Pizza around in Northeast Ohio. Quality ingredients, great staff and a variety of classic Italian dishes. I lived in a lot of places around the country and it is hard to find the quality of pizza in the Cleveland area and Scotti's is on the the top of that list. I have tried almost every item there and I never had a bad choice.

I've been looking for a halfway point between downtown and Mayfield Hts., and here it is! Just in time to take advantage of the beautiful outside patio, filled with pots of flowers and a nice, casual ambiance. This place is great for a casual meal. All the prices are reasonable, and you can choose between pizza, calzones, and plenty of Italian dinner options. I'm a calzone fan, so I had to try the one with mozzarella, basil, tomatoes, and prosciutto. I'm not sure how I feel about the prosciutto in a calzone, but other than that, it was delicious! Very bread-y and melt-in-your-mouth good. I also had a side of the cavatelli pasta, which was alright, but I'm not a huge fan of the sauce. It's pretty average, and not as sweet as I like. Nothing wrong with it though! Everyone seemed satisfied with their food, and the service was really good. They even brought us some OFF when the bugs started biting. Check it out, and definitely get here before summer ends!

There are A LOT of Italian restaurants in Cleveland. Little Italy is chock full of excellent restaurants (I'm a fan of Anthony's and Mia Bella myself), but those are more upscale. If you are looking for a solid yet delicious Italian meal, Scotti's is one of the best. I have tried nearly everything on the menu, and it is all wonderful. Best of all, the prices (for food of this quality) are exceedingly reasonable. Three things of note: 1) They do not take credit cards, so stop at a bank machine (or raid your mattress) before you go. 2) Parking, when it's busy, is a challenge. There is a post office across the street with parking spaces which is available, and it's a hell of a lot easier to park there than at the restaurant. 3) If the weather is decent, go sit on the patio. Not only is it a gorgeous space, you will have absolutely no idea you're in the middle of a busy industrial city or a neighborhood. I can't rate the patio highly enough.

Was seated on the patio. Place was half full. Waited 20 minutes and not one server stopped by our table to even take our drink order or ask if anyone had even helped us yet. Walked out after waiting 20 minutes.

A really great place to enjoy solid Italian cooking. Parking in the lot can be difficult if it's very busy. The veal dishes were really top notch and the draft selection features some local breweries such as Great Lakes and Portside, but they also have Newcastle English ale on tap.

Great pizza and fantastic service. I make it a point to eat here when I am in Cleveland.
(5)Stephanie S.
Got to dine today at one of my favorite Italian eateries tonight. Everything on the menu is good, but my favorite is still their pesto pasta.
(5)Roxanne O.
Solid, neighborhood (cash only) Italian fare. I used to live in Euclid and used to frequent Scotti's and I'm happy to report that it's still a nice little Italian restaurant featuring pizzas, pastas, calzones, and very traditional Italian fare. They provide fresh baked focaccia bread with every meal and I think I could eat my weight in it. I was able to veganize a side salad and a calzone. They took off the cheese for me without a fuss and I built myself a pretty tasty calzone. I washed it all down with a glass of local white wine and left a happy camper. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a good Italian meal. And for the love of God, please pick a restaurant like this over the Olive Garden. Your tummy will thank you for it. I promise.

Great whole in the wall place. I don't live in the area, but I will go out of my way to eat at Scotti's again and again.
(5)Jonathan W.
Good pizza! Lots of sauces to choose from. Cash only. Nice wooded decor with an open kitchen. Nice back patio too!
(4)Khaleedah L.
My family loves Scotti!!!! The staff is very nice and the owner always ask if we need anything. The food is GREAT and priced right. The bread that they have is AWESOME!! I LOVE that place. The only thing I would say negative is that they only accept cash, and the decor is a little outdated. But I have been to beautiful restaurants inside and either the people are nasty, the food overpriced, or the food doesnt taste good, I have never had any of those problems at Scotti. Its WORTH THE DRIVE, all the way from the westside. My daughter LOVES coming here, and everyone is friendly. After my daughter therapy tonight we are going there for dinner. Keep up the good work!!!

Food is just ok. Prices are a little high but not outrageous. Portions aren't all that large but aren't extremely small or anything either. Just don't expect the greatest-tasting food or portions to make up for it if you are just hungry. Management: How about some lettuce with the salads, please? Better care with the meatballs too.
(2)Danny D.
A great and authentic Italian restaurant on 185th. Service is welcoming, courteous, and accommodating. Their patio looks awesome also. Props to their rooftop garden
(5)Ralph M.
Always a pleasure to dine here for lunch or dinner. The calzones are a work of art. Never skimpy on the filling. Excellent prices. Nice wine list, attentive service. Enjoy this local landmark. Remember that it is cash only.
(5)Kim T.
A truly fantastic Italian restaurant. Everything here is delicious! Eggplant fries, pasta, pizza, calzones, desserts, whatever. Nice casual atmosphere, great service, reasonable priced, yummy yummy food! I will drive across town for a meal here. Go to the ATM beforehand, because it's cash only.

I've probably been here a dozen times in the past few years, and I've never left disappointed. The food is fantastic, especially over lunchtime. They always start you off with bread and dipping oil. The thing I love about their dipping oil is the pink peppercorns they serve it with. I recommend any calzone. If you are not like me and have the discipline to stop eating, a large calzone could feed you twice. Another tasty option is their portabella mushroom salad that comes with their delicious house dressing, a creamy vinagrette. The price is reasonable for what you get. The service is okay... The atmosphere is nice, but nothing special (unless it's a nice summer day and you can sit on their patio). But it's the food that keeps me coming back. One drawback - the oven that cooks the pizzas and calzones is near the dining area. This means your clothes end up smelling like the tasty goodness they serve up. This may be just me, but I like to eat my food, not wear it.

Found this wonderful, small place while living on the east side for a couple years. Now that I am back on the west side, I still drive out there every couple of months because the food is excellent! The service is a little iffy at times. I never had a bad meal here. From the homemade dipping bread, starter salad, pizza, pasta and seafood dishes, everything is amazing. The food always tastes so fresh and the atmosphere is laid back, but warm. Eating inside the restaurant can leave you smelling like the place, which normally I would hate. However, there are always fresh bouquets of Peruvian lilies on every table and usually a bigger bouquet at the hostess stand by the front door. The patio is a great place to dine in the summer. There is a high fence all around, lights and plenty of flowers and greenery. It feels like you aren't really in Cleveland. Love, love, love Scottis!!!!

Scotty's is our favorite restaurant. We've been going there since it opened however many years ago. They never fail to provide good friendly, efficient service and really delicious food. They have a patio out back for the good weather and a clean well run dining room. You can see the kitchen and even better smell all the wonderful smells. Worth the drive from wherever you live. Well lit safe parking and easy access from anywhere. A hidden gem on 185th st.
(5)Ben H.
I'm slightly biased on this review because I know the owner & he is truly a great guy. If you're looking for a quaint little place to eat some good Italian food - this is the spot. The pizza is good, the beer is cold (& cheap) & the service is top of the line. Also, if you're into disc-golf, be sure to mention this to Scotty as the leagues are played at Sims park up the street & everyone eats at Scotty's afterwards.
(5)Jim P.
A solid Italian dining experience... THE UP-SIDE: Pretty damn decent Italian food. The atmosphere inside is average, but the outside back patio is quiet, private, and really quite nice. The staff is always, always friendly. THE DOWN-SIDE: This isn't "upscale" dining. THE SUM-IT-UP: Go here to eat good Italian food while you sit on the back patio.

carb heaven, please widen the door so i can officially be rolled out.... Scotti's is always consistently down to earth, cozy, no fuss Italian food. So if you like that kind of thing (a warm fuzzy feeling brought on by copious amounts of pasta, cream sauce and chianti) for sure check it out. If Bucca di Beppe originated by ripping off a place - it was probably Scotti's. It has that kind of feel, but with out the requisite "flair". Thank god. Homemade bread - hot, fresh with dipping sauce. They dont even mind that I untop the parmesean cheese shaker and mix with the oil & vinegar (try it!). But the gluttony doesn't stop there....first add wine: nice little wine list with some good inexpensive basics. Come on, get a chianti!! Then you must pick your pasta... the man had the lobster stuffed ravioli which came out tricolored, very cool and very yum, especially with the alfredo. Me, linguine with the red pepper pesto (oh god is it good) with a side of alfredo. You can never have enough cheese. Repeat, there is never enough cheese!! They give you a huge portion, and believe me, take the leftovers home. I put the fork down shortly before they had to unhinge the door,. Stuffed and happy, like a ricotta shell..... and an hour later at home? Well, lets say there was a fork fight to the finish :)

Walk into Scotti's and you're looking at some of the top calzone and pizza in one of the most friendly, pleasant settings in Northeast Ohio. From eggplant parmigiana to chicken marsala, a caprese salad or pesto gnocchi, you won't go wrong with anything on this menu. (Seriously: close your eyes and make a pick. You won't be disappointed!) Scotti himself makes you feel like a welcomed member of the family, and the food could have been prepared by someone's Italian grandma (if she were a gourmet, that is). I read in another review that the "downside" to Scotti's is that it's not "upscale," but I guess I'm over the fluff dining scene. I want all the quality food -- nix the price-tag excess (pricey light fixtures, snooty people)! -- in a clean, relaxing environment. A place like Scotti's enables me to really enjoy my food AND my company without having to worry about an uppity scene. It's still neat and classy with my food-enjoying experience at its core.
(5)Justin L.
Really great Italian food. Everything I've had there is great. Cold Peroni on draft makes it even better. Only complaint is that their bread is loaded with fennel seed, and I'm merely "meh" about that. My wife isn't a big fan of it, but she really loves warm bread, so it's always disappointing to her that she can't enjoy the bread. If you like fennel seed, the bread's amazing. Warm and soft and delicious. The lasagna is to die for. Service is always very good or great.

I first went to this place about 10 years ago, and it has been my favorite Italian place to eat at since. Not only is the food absolutely delicious, it is fairly priced for the amount of food you get. When you first get there, you get bread and an oil/vinegar mix. It is amazing. It is hard not to fill up on it! I have gotten numerous dishes here, but my favorites are the veal parmesan or angel hair pasta in basil pesto sauce with mushrooms. But I have had other dishes that were fantastic as well. This is a great date night place, or just a place to go with family or friends. The servers are super nice, and it's a casual place, so no need to dress up!
