There are a couple bad reviews but I can't believe it myself. I eat there often with my Niece. She gets the super delicious shrimp Alfredo and it delivers every time. I always get something different. Last time I had the duck. It was cooked to absolute perfection. Also all the pasta is home made, made from scratch, which is why it tastes so smooth, rich and delicious. There’s nothing like homemade made from scratch pasta. I watched Marcello pulling the homemade spaghetti noodles from the machine. Store box pasta just isn’t the same as made from scratch.The next day we came back and I had the super delicious rockfish. Like I said, we eat there often and always leave satisfied!

Good food I found randomly on Google maps, because my wife lasy name is Maldini. The downside was that as we enter the person at front said in a lil stresful way: we are full right now, we will have space available until 15 20 minutes. (But no hello, welcome etc).
Later at our table she was calmer, she breathe in and help us out as we ordered.
So maybe service needs to handle the stresses of the moment better.
But the food was delicious. Great pizza and great gnocchis. Would recommend.

Best Italian joint I’ve ever been to! The food was phenomenal and service was speedy. We even had my special needs brother with us who can only eat puréed food and drink milk and the owner sent someone out to get milk for him from the store and made a custom puréed meal for him. In the 19 years of my brothers life, we’ve never had someone offer to custom make his food so that he could eat with us as well, it really touched my heart and made out stay in Richmond that much better. Stand up restaurant with phenomenal staff and service.

Maldini’s truly has the best pizza in Richmond. Authentically Italian, relatively thin, perfectly soft but crusty crust, never too much sauce. Toppings? Don’t even worry, a large cheese is perfectly delicious. Price? I would pay anything for this pizza. It does not matter.
After being very ill, Maldini’s pizza has somehow cured me four times in a row. It truly is a miracle of a pie. I may never move from the area simply so I can continue eating this pizza until I die.

Hadn't been in forever. When I lived in Forest Hill Terrace, it was one of my go-to restaurants. My experience May 11, 2023 was excellent. I had the seafood; my dining partner the chicken. Easier on the wallet than many current Richmond restaurants these days, which I appreciate.

We had a great experience here! The pesto pasta and chicken parmesan were delicious. The prices were reasonable and the atmosphere was nice. Our server, Ashley, was kind, attentive, and very helpful with recommendations. 10/10!

Exceptional. We went for the first time 3 days ago. We have been back each day since to try new things. So happy to have this in Richmond. You can taste the love.

Always delicious and wonderful staff! We ordered delivery on Valentines day and it was running a little late, they called us to apologize to us and explain that they were busy (we forgot it was valentines day and one of the busiest days of the year for restaurants). I order takeout many times a month and encounter issues often, but am never called and apologized to. Food was delivered hot and fresh and they included free dessert! The pasta was delicious and pink for valentines day! We always have such a great experience when dining in or ordering delivery from Maldini’s. Will continue to visit often.

Absolutely wonderful experience here. Had the best vegetarian lasagna I’ve ever had. The sauce reminds me of my dad’s from when I was growing up. Took home some tiramisu and that was also a dream. I can tell just from these that they make all the food with love. Our waitress was excellent and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be back!
