Mediocre quality and slow service. Pasta dishes at an Italian restaurant should be incredible and they're just bland now. Heard it used to be good years ago

If you like Italian food this is such a great place to go! I’ve been here many times and it’s always so good. They have an array of food options to choose from, you can’t go wrong with any. If you are in the area or live in the area, I highly recommend I visit!

One of the best Tiramisus i ever had. It was like eating a cloud. Their breads are also amazing - complimentary breadbasket and pizza base. Loads of vegetarian friendly options. Would highly recommend.

This little gem lives up to its name with a homey welcoming atmosphere, good service, and classic Italian food. It's not fancy, but it's quite comfortable and the food we had last Sunday night was quite good.

Stopped by this place for lunch enroute to castle rock state park. This is cute Italian restaurant that has indoor and outdoor seating. Their warm bread with spiced butter was irresistible. Started with the prawns sorrento ;prawns in lemon butter sauce. The sauce was creamy and paired well with the bread. For entree ordered the linguine Portofino and tagliatelle bolognese. Both were cooked well and tasted great. The portofino was slightly salty but generous with the crab meat.
The menu also has a wide variety of vegetarian pastas along with an extensive salad menu.
Overall great restaurant. A little on the pricey side

Not sure where to start but pizza here is mediocre at best. Their Margherita Pizza is questionable because when you think of margherita pizza you envision sliced mozzarella ball melted and then fresh basil (whole leaves) on the pizza, this was not the case. It was shredded mozzarella and diced tomato with cut up small pieces of basil. Their Florentine deluxe pizza is also okay. Outside of the pizzas the pastas were good. The calamari was quite small, not a great value. Crab cakes were good. The best thing we had was the steamed clams. Overall, I’d say give it a try but I’m not sure about going back anytime soon. Also, charging 22% (automatically) for a party of 6 or more is a bit much, I typically see 20% for some high end places or even 18%.

Been dining with Florentine's for years and have never had a bad meal. Everything is always delicious and they are very accommodating to certain requests. (a family member is not a fan of tortellini and they kindly swap for linguine when requested) Extremely grateful for the delicious flavors and outstanding service.....and oh, as mentioned by many, their bread is the BEST!!!

This place used to be amazing. Had great pastas, salads and the bread with cheese sauce was next level. It must have new management or owners…the servings are tiny, spaghetti had very little sauce, meatballs were dry and flavorless. The bread is still good but they give you 1/10th of the cheese sauce they used to give you for a full round. After coming here for 20+ years I will no longer be coming back.

I used to love this place. So disappointing. 3 of us were there for a birthday celebration. They brought us their bread basket which was good but with one little plastic cup of cheesy butter. We asked if we could have some more and the waitress, practically rolled her eyes and had an attitude. Had the seafood salad but just not good. Service was not good. They literally had an attitude when we asked for more water which they never refilled. Could not order reg coffee only espresso which came in a lg coffee cup. Chinese chicken salad was sub par with an unexpected dressing. The service and food did not match with their pricing. Service was just really bad. We will not be back.
