Milano’s Italian Restaurant has been a staple of the Italian food scene in Columbus for 40+ years. Originating on the north side of town, the concept moved to Reynoldsburg in 2000 and the Milano’s sold in ’21 to a young, experienced couple who believe in the same family traditions and values the Milano’s had brought to it’s guests for years prior, including keeping the delicious recipes and retaining as much staff as they could. We are constantly updating the space, working on new methods of providing our delicious Italian-American food across town. We are capable of hosting events, parties, and celebrations as well as offering an affordable menu, both catering and dining. Give us a try and we are sure you won’t be disappointed.
This family-run eatery with a full bar doles out hearty servings of classic Italian dishes.

Dinner last night at Milano’s! Total cost was about $55. No drinks. The spaghetti carbonara was amazing. The wedding soup (you have your choice of soup or salad with the pasta meals ) was the best I have ever had. The dish swimming in the red sauce was cheese ravioli. My wife said it was excellent, but that the sauce was spicy. I tasted it and I agree. I don’t think it used to be like that. Like always, the portions were huge with enough to take home for lunch the next day! Unfortunately at 5:30 PM they were already out of the prime rib, which is the Wednesday special. Not shown is a piece of limoncello cake that we took home. The absolute best dessert I have ever had! Service was great! Atmosphere depends on where you are seated. We were seated in the back close to the kitchen. We had them turn the house music up to drown out the noise coming from the kitchen. That’s why only three stars for the atmosphere. And yes, the breadsticks are perhaps the tastiest breadsticks we have ever had.

Quaint restaurant at the end of a strip mall. The inside was rather warm (in winter) but crazy but noticable. Our food was quite good. We order chicken parmesan and fettuccine alfredo. The bread sticks though, will bring me back. They tasted like they were made out of funnel cake batter!
My biggest gripe was sitting in the back by the kitchen. They had their own rather loud music playing and some colorful language also was very noticeable. It greatly took away from the ambiance of the room.

Wow, very impressive! We stopped in for lunch, I had the Prime Rib with pasta and it was excellent. Very tender with lots of flavor. I really liked the pasta sauce, just the right amount of sweet. The breadsticks were fantastic too. Service was great, very friendly and welcoming. We’ll be back!!!

I dont get the great reviews of this place. My brother got lasagna and I got fettuccine Alfredo. The cheapest frozen lasagna from Walmart would be the equal of their lasagna and cheap Alfredo out of a jar would match the quality of the Alfredo. We asked for extra bread and found a charge for extra bread on our bill. Truly, that was the last straw. The only bright spot was our server, who was absolutely wonderful. I would not consider returning.
In response to my bread comment, the owner mentioned that food costs money. I get that, but Fazolis, Olive Garden, Texas Roadhouse and on and on all can afford to provide free bread. When you are serving up $2 worth of pasta and cheap sauce and charging roughly $25 for it…don’t nickel and dime the customer.

This place is too beautiful and nice to have such bland food. The bread was surprisingly good it was a sweet treat of fried breadsticks but the sauce for the parmesan and fettuccine was very bland it was like plain sauce out of a can and there was only table shaker Parmesan cheese. The service was amazing and the ambiance and fireplace is so nice but the food really needs an upgrade.

Great food! I could have made a meal from the bruschetta alone! It was that good!!!! The lasagna was good, as well. The service was pretty slow, but there were 2 large parties going on, including the one I was in, so that’s why I gave it 3 stars. The atmosphere was better in the main dining area. The back room we were in was okay, but we had a large party. I would give 4 stars for atmosphere for the main dining area. Also, my husband likes old fashioneds. He couldn’t drink whatever it was he was served (that we paid for). He went to the bar himself to order a 2nd one, but it wasn’t really an old fashioned. I would highly recommend trying Milano’s. I do want to go again with my husband so we can eat in the main dining area. I’m sure it will be a better experience.

Milano’s Italian restaurant is located east side of Columbus at 6916 East Broad Street. It’s a nice romantic Italian restaurant. Perfect for a date night or a quick lunch with the family.
Everyone here was more than kind and my service was top-tier. A big thanks to Megan by the way who was my waitress.
The food was absolutely amazing, I can tell you right now, it did not disappoint! We started off with Balsamic Caprice Bruschetta which looked incredibly beautiful and tasted exactly how it looked, phenomenal!
My House Sirloin was cooked to perfection and I got to try a bite of my friend’s Chicken Piccata, it was zesty and delicious.
I ordered a Caesar Salad and we shared a wedding the Wedding Soup. One of thee best Caesar side salads I’ve ever had, now it is a couple dollars more but do yourself a favor and spend the extra money. It’s well worth it!
Hands-down, my favorite dessert was Limoncello Cake even though I ordered the Classic Tiramisu we actually split our desserts but hey, we all have our favorite ya know? Honestly you can’t go wrong either one! Everything here is freshly made and you can tell!
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to try any of the mixed drinks because I was driving this evening.
What I thought was really cool was, it use to be an old bar called. “The Snug Pub” but changed hands in 2000 to the Milano family. Which I loved the history and thought that was really cool.
I highly recommend Milanos Italian Restaurant! Also just look at my pictures!

Great little Italian restaurant! The food was fantastic, the bar looked wonderful and the staff was friendly, quick and helpful. It feels like a trip to visit your aunt and uncle in Italy. We had the daily special chicken piccata and the homemade lasagna – both were wonderful. Nice big portions and reasonable prices.
