I'm not sure but something has changed. We've dined a few times recently before I've updated the review. The pasta is overcooked, the sauces are flavorless, the seafood overdone. The new'ish server was rude and messy. She had our food on her sleeve, tried to pour our wine in regular glasses and even though the place was almost empty, she was nowhere to be found when we needed her. We'll wait a few months before trying again. I don't want to give up since they've been on the top since they opened but something is going on and it's not a good change. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute restaurant with rustic Italian decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Found myself here for dinner and immediately noticed that they bake their own panettone and were cooling/wrapping them up in one corner of the restaurant. To start, five of us shared the arugula salad which was simple and fresh, but oddly came without dressing (which we asked for upon realizing it was dry). We also got the garlic bread. I would recommend skipping the garlic bread all together because its not very different from the complimentary bread. For mains, two of us had the chicken parm, two of us had the cannelloni di carne, and one had the gnocchi. We also shared two bottles of wine which seemed fairly priced. Overall, the food was ok but certainly pricy for what we received. The service was polite but inexperienced and inattentive. There were some mistakes with our food but nothing major and they were able to rectify. We also got a panettone to go ($25 for the medium) - yum! read more

Hidden Gem alert! Silvio's has no business being as fantastic as it is. It would be easy to discredit a restaurant attached to a grocery store, but you would be doing your tastebuds a disservice! Food: everything was probably the best version of that dish I've had in a while. Caesar salad; pricy, but could feed 2-4 people for an appetizer. The real Italian Romano cheese, coupled with what I suspect was sourdough croutons (homemade), really elevated this salad. Chicken Parm: my husband ordered this, and I thought it was better than any chain Italian restaurant version. Loved that it was not sweet like so many other marinaras. You can tell it is made in house! He appreciated the amount of chicken, but prefers large chicken breasts, instead of the smaller cutlets. Farm Fresh Burger: I know, I went to an Italian place and ordered a burger, but when I read the description of it, I swooned. It was probably the best burger I've had in years! Loved the flavor and texture. Gluten free friends, though they have GF pastas, they do not have a a GF bun, so you'll have to go bunless. The accompanying salad was equally as delicious. Just had to get the tiramisu, and there are no regrets! Silvio's is close to being as good as The Chop House tiramisu. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance: pretty chill for a Tuesday evening! Nice outdoor area. Loved dining inside, did not feel like a restaurant in a grocery store at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wish the service could have been better, the waitress was not great at knowing the menu, and was not prepared for questions. It seems like this may be her first job though. All in all, Silvio's Trattoria e Pizzeria does a superb job with choosing quality ingredients, and you can taste it in every bite. Looking forward to dining her again! read more

My husband started with the garlic bread. It was a nice size piece, and was buttery and garlicky. I loved it, though it was a bit strong on the garlic for my husband. Not for the faint of heart! I decided to try the lasagna and was glad that I did! It was some of the best I've ever had. All of the layers were melty and delicious - none of that chalky ricotta here! Silvio's advertises that make their own noodles, and that always makes a huge difference in texture. I would definitely order this again. Truly crave inducing! read more

This is a great spot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Adorable ambiance and live music along with authentic and innovative food options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]While I was studying the menu, a man began playing a flute like instrument and sang beautiful Italian songs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I started with a few unity vibrations raspberry kombuchas which were fab. I then proceeded with the arrosticini which is the most tender lamb skewers. These were phenomenal and I highly recommend! For my main, I took the server's suggestion and went with the rotating pizza of the month. It was a brisket and asparagus pizza. Bomb! The brisket was the most tender that I have ever had. The cheese topping was hard to pinpoint. It was almost like a soft , omelette texture and it was the perfect base for the finely chopped asparagus. The service was a little slow, but I'll definitely return to try some vegan and seafood options. read more

Our server was outstanding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very good ambience attached to a bush market, which says in my mind that the food was totally fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This restaurant is a hidden gem. More people need to know about it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is simple but appropriate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The light in the restaurant are dimmed but not overly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I hate restaurants were it is so dark, you can barely see the menu.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went to a special event there this year. The theme was "Mushrooms". Every course was mushroom based. With dinner came with wine and no glass was ever empty. I enjoyed this event and will look forward to going to another even there. Now let's talk about the specialty of the restaurant. Pizza. They use a special flour and method to make the dough and you fully appreciate what they have done. Try this place. You won't regret it. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A lovely restaurant and a seemly great find. Very nicely decorated and a talented live musician providing nice music too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Food, was only ok...it'd been best if actually brought out to our table when it was ready, instead it waited for our waiter to return to the floor under a heat lamp for ten minutes. Our waiter, meantime on a long break in the bathroom. Finally out, our food was brought to the table. Waiter never returned again, too busy checking out the Asian waitress' ass, had to flag down another staff member to get our bill, get a box for our cold food, and leave. Not even a refill offered by our waiter after 20 minutes when we stopped eating. So, due to the waiter... this place sucks. We won't return or recommend! [[HIGHLIGHT]]By the way, NOT busy at all, guess there's a reason.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]There was only about 27 people in the whole place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We sat down at 6:15. Our food did not come out until 7:40. Our waitress said she was cooking and I saw her tending bar. This is sad, I really wanted to write a good review today. read more

First time for us here. Food was mixed. Whitefish was just ok. Spaghetti was good! Bread and olive oil were both great! But here's the rub. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have music on Friday and Saturday nights. The music was two high school boys playing a guitar and a sax. IT WAS SO LOUD YOU COULDN'T BELIEVE IT![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We couldn't hear a thing anyone was saying at our table. The staff couldn't hear what we were ordering.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We asked to be moved and they obliged. I still couldn't hear much of the conversation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't go on a Friday or Saturday would be my advice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We had the worst Mother's Day brunch yesterday. $150 for three people. There were barely any staff. Not sure where to begin... all of the food tasted bad. Pasta undercooked. Sauce tasted like it came out of a can. Sausage and bacon were extra greasy and fatty. The bacon actually tasted off, as did the pizza. No one touched the eggs - at first I thought someone had Mac and cheese, but no - that was the eggs. The salad wasnt mixed and we were at the back of the line, so by the time we got there, it was pretty much just lettuce and raw asparagus. The "carving station" was a joke. The mimosa bar didn't have any OJ and you had to make it yourself. There was no one to offer coffee. The dessert tasted like it had been sitting out for days. And not one person said happy Mother's Day. Never going back. Looking around, most everyone else seemed to have the same expression on their face, wondering how something could be so bad. read more

Being originally from NY I've been looking for authentic Italian food like I'm used to. Michigan seemed not to know what real Italian food is. I heard about Silvio's from a server from a restaurant in Saline I frequent. She was on point. The food is old school Italian. As good as Carmine' in Manhattan. I kid you not. I had to drive from Milan but I'd gladly do it again. Pizza was excellent as were the rice balls and Lasagna. My entire family loved the place. We will be back. read more

I love a good margherita pizza, but this was definitely not the place for that. Gave it another shot and came back hoping for a better experience. Instead, we stood waiting at the host stand for someone to acknowledge us. When the guy finally walked over, he just said, "We are full," with a confused look--no estimated wait time, no suggestion to check back, nothing. So we left. And we won't be back. Anyone raving about this place must have never been to Cantoros or any decent Italian restaurant. read more

Food was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was excellent and the music was a nice way to dine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is small but has a full bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pizza was like we had in Italy instead of what you get in the states. Italian family-owned and operated business. read more

The food here given the price you pay is underwhelming. I don't mind the portion sizes themselves but if you are going to charge what they charge it better be really good and wow me. For example, I ordered the cannelloni for $22. It's good not the best food I have eaten by far and that doesn't even include a salad or soup, I think you can add on a side salad for $4.00. The service was ok. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I can't really say much about the ambiance, it was a Monday at 5pm so not very many people were there, plus it was before a Lions Monday night game so I wouldn't expect there to be.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unless my family wanted to go back, I don't think I would ever pick this place. read more

REAL food! I had the seafood pasta which was so satisfying and my friend enjoyed the porchetta sandwich; we shared arancini and meatballs. Meatballs were great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed a long leisurely lunch mid-week.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I also ordered a prosciutto piadini which my husband loved. Both sandwiches came plated with a fresh, perfectly dressed side salad. I will be back! read more

I returned to give another try. I was very happy with the service while dining in. The staff was really Friendly and I got pasta which seems to be a strong point for menu options. They have a lot to choose from such as gluten free . My dinner mate got the blueberry pizza and loved it. We both drank wine. Thank you for a great experience . I'm happy I gave them Another chance . read more

I don't know how anyone would rate this less than 5 stars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has the cutest atmosphere, perfect for a casual lunch but also for a nicer date night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They seem to be very family oriented with their hiring too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bread and olive oil is to die for, and the food was out of this world. We actually had 2 things missed in our order and didn't even notice because we were so happy with the food, until our server apologized with a complimentary dessert, which was also amazing! Can't recommend this place enough. You have to try it. read more

I visited Silvio's during a visit to Ann Arbor in February 2020. You can find my review here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/silvios-ann-arbor-2?hrid=r-4yFFcJ7uHn9pXlqXqnWw&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) I loved Silvio's when I was at the University of Michigan and was happy to see that it was still in business. Silvio's has since moved to Canton and is in the same building as Busch's Fresh Food Market. Quite a change from a big university campus to suburbia, but the new restaurant is more spacious with outdoor seating. I ordered the Patate Pizza. It is the potato pizza with gorgonzola cheese and rosemary. It was good but tasted a bit plain. There was also a bit of crust bubble and burn. If I order it again I will ask for additional toppings like sausage or truffle oil. My opinion hasn't changed from February 2020. I was more impressed with the food when I was a student but it is still a good place for organic Italian cuisine. read more

This is our first dining experience at Silvio's, we're really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, it did not come anywhere near our expectations. We tried the gnocchi dish, which was overly soft and mushy, and only given flavor by the salt. We also had the cannelloni which was supposedly made with a crepe but that was notably, thick and doughy. I would much prefer Rose'srestaurant just kitty corner from Silvio's. Much better in my opinion. read more

Niece had New Year's Eve luncheon for family there. Bread was perfect with great crust and olive oil- kept bringing it. Caesar salad excellent. Pasta pomodoro was perfect. Chicken piccata tender and wonderful. And the desserts were great- mini cannolis and other pastries. Heading back there when we are in town! read more

Got take out from this place to celebrate my home bound mother's birthday. Unfortunately it was so disappointing. We paid $26 for a tiny 3"x3" piece of lasagna that was just mushy (pasta didn't hold up to being reheated by the restaurant). Other dish had black spots in the pasta but I don't think it was pepper. Definitely won't be back. I'm very sad that we had this horrible (and expensive) meal for a celebration dinner :( read more

Silvio and his whole family and staff are excellent great food at a reasonable price the food is so good I felt like I wasn't paying enough for the meal I received do your self a favor and go eat there and if they don't like it your an idiot! read more

Easily the best, AUTHENTIC Italian restaurant around! This place is truly a hidden gem. The restaurant is on the side of Busch's Grocery Store and it's a 10/10 experience every time. Handmade pastas, high quality ingredients, and genuine Italian food. We always start with the Arugula Salad, and it's big enough to share with 3 people. The prosciutto, the Romano cheese, and balsamic are so perfect together, simple ingredients but so harmonious together. My boyfriend raves about the prosciutto quality it tastes very fresh and quality. The pastas are all handmade, we ordered the carbonara, the gemeli pesto pasta, the chicken Alfredo, and the owner Silvio was sweet enough to make a Cacio E Pepe even though it wasn't on the menu. All of the pastas we tried were incredible! This is the type of food where you don't feel terrible after eating because it's not processed fake food. We also came back to try their margherita pizza and I remembered that I forgot to write a review so I'll add that to this one... OH MY GOSH! Not to be dramatic but that was the best pizza I've had in a long time. It's Neapolitan style, so it's like a thin doughy consistency and everything tastes fresh, the tomato sauce the basil the mozzarella it's amazing. The service is ridiculously good every-time that I feel guilty that I didn't write this review sooner! Thank you Phil & Francesca for always welcoming us and being so sweet, and thank you Silvio for coming to say Hi to us and making me the cacio e pepe. read more

Plain calamari and lasagna was average. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Uncomfortable seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good tho, will need to try again

I have found at the best Italian food comes from these Mom and Pop locations where the family lovingly creates old family recipes and offers these dishes proudly to their community. The national chains continuously fall short mainly because their choices are made by a corporate board and not by a family's favorite recipes. Silvio's Trattoria e Pizzeria is one of those restaurants that faithfully serve their community consistently good food in a warm and friendly environment. You honestly cannot go wrong with anything that you order here. The pizza is good, as are there more traditional Italian main course dishes. The next time that your family is craving you good Italian food, I would recommend driving right past Olive Garden, Carrabba's and all the other places and heading this way. You know your family will be sorry for this choice. Not only that, you will become a faithful and regular customer. read more

I have ordered the blueberry pizza adding grilled chicken for lunch. The chef actually upgraded the chicken to add rosemary with garlic and it tasted great. I'd like to try other dishes too! read more

Insanely delicious!!!!! THANK YOU for giving me a taste of Italy in the U.S. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I felt like being back in Roma again for a moment![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] the owner talked to me at the bar for a little bit and you could tell that everything is made with passion and authenticity! I met his daughter as well and she was pleasant and sweet. Thanks guys, I am definitely coming back with hubby and maybe even whole work crew since it's so close in the area. 10/10 Recommend!! read more

Not much flavor there afraid to put much sauce very watery & way over PRICED for what you get

BRAVO!!! I've never had a more gastronomical celebration of flavors, Selections and creative dishes in my life. Although traffic and distance would slow me down, Silvio's will be a regular in our lives. The staff were incredibly attentive. The chef amazed us with his genius. I had the orange roughy special. A ricotta pie & Another amazing dessert...a light pizza filled with fruit , Nutella & custard. Wow read more

I've eaten here a few times after shopping at Busch's grocery store since it's adjacent to the store. It's solid and the drinks are delicious. The server I always seem to get (Phil) is the friendliest guy ever and he does a really great job of being attentive but not overbearing. He makes this place special. I usually order the grilled lamb- cheese balls with sauce and the lemoncillo martini... and this is a nearly perfect meal ( just need to add a salad) read more

Silvio's Trattoria e Pizzeria - Arancini & Pallotte is always DELICIOUS - Pizza Near Me - Canton, Michigan

Silvio's was practically an Ann Arbor landmark when I was in college. Wasn't too impressed with them back then, but now that they've followed me out to Canton, I decided to give them another try. So glad I did! We've both gotten take out and dined in over recent months, and it's become our go-to Italian restaurant. The food is made with care and curiosity (they have some really unique dishes like the blueberry pizza here as well as more traditional fare), and the service is the best I've had in a while. Favorites here include the truffle fries, meatballs, margherita pizza, and omg the arrosticini, which are little lamb skewers that they grill outside and come highly recommended if you are a meat-eater. Phil took amazingly good care of us when we dined in, too. Really bumped up the experience to a full five stars. read more

Horrible service and terrible management. Second visit with mass disorganization of staff. It did not appear that there was a shortage of front of the house staff. It was that they were all stepping on each others toes and far from friendly or hospitable. The wait for food is unacceptable particularly when despite self righteousness of management (see next comment) the food is not up to par. This is a family run business which I respect. Apparently the owners daughter is the "manager". Don't even think about bringing a concern to her attention. You will be met with excuses, denial, unprofessional behavior and outright disrespect. Stay away. read more

I come here for the pizza, which has always been fantastic. However the past few times it seems like it is very understaffed. Most of the time, the waiters apologize but most recently a particular waiter (son in law of Silvio) was rude and it took over an hour to get our food. Can't justify coming back if the service is so poor. read more

This family owned and run Italian spot right next to Busch's has flavors that will make you think you're in Napoli... or maybe Brooklyn... or South Philly. No matter where you hail from, the menu cries out "Molto molto bene, mangiare!" Whether you dine in enjoy a fantastic selection of wines and well-stocked bar or take an order to go, you better stop looking and go here. Since moving back to Michigan from the East Coast, Philadelphia, the city certainly known for its Italian food and culture (there's a restaurant and every corner out there), I haven't had a chicken Parm that flight got it perfect. An Italian American classic, Silvio, Phil, and Fran have it spot on. If you're looking for something more traditional, the gnocchi and more than a few pizzas offer something authentically Italian. This is the place you are looking for. The burger is low key delicious too, just in case you're in the mood for one. read more
