20 Best Italian Restaurants in Cape Coral

“First time dining at Gusto and the food was amazing. If you’re looking for a place for authentic Italian food you won’t be disappointed. 5 Stars for this restaurant.“

“Beautiful presentation and even more amazing food! What a wonderful little hidden spot at Tarpon Marina! We will always go again! Love, Love, Love!!!“

“I wanted to take my wife somewhere special for our anniversary and this is it!!This is upscale dining! They only have one kind of steak - Filet Mignon. but have 8-9 different variations but if you love plain steak ,they will cook it for you that way to perfection. The lamb shanks were excellent.
The menu covers appetizers, starters, pasta, seafood, deserts and wines.
Old Italian atmosphere.
Not cheap, but if you want somewhere special, this is it!“

“This was our first time at Two Meatballs. The food was absolutely delicious. Service was great. Prices were average for the meals we had. The restaurant was busy but not overwhelming. I am sure in snowbird season it will be packed. Parking was the only drawback. There are so many establishments sharing the same lot that I could not find handicapped parking or anything nearby. That minor inconvenience will not stop me from returning.“

“Our waitress Taylor was amazing very kind and made sure we had a pleasant dinner. The food was good especially the canoli cake. I recommend it very highly.“

“I can't say enough about this restaurant. The food was amazing. The atmosphere and love was beyond what you would expect. I can't wait to go back. I want to try every single dish on the menu. I read the review about the vodka sauce and the recovering alcoholic. Why the f....k would you even consider ordering that dish in the first place??? You are playing games with yourself. Really, you cried at the table?? The owners are hard working people. There are erasers on pencils for a reason. Or maybe you don't know what an eraser is. I would have thrown your a** out wah wah wah!! And the other idiot with the chicken wings, you don't come to an Italian restaurant and ask for chicken wings. Go to Kentucky Fried chicken you arsh hole! Anyway I loved the gnocchi with cream sauce, which is what I had. I needed to sample the gravy, (yes we Italians can it gravy), so I had a meatball too! Totally recommend! Jill the owner is the sweetest person you will ever meet. Make a reservation it fills up real fast!“

“This pizza is beyond amazing, give them a try! New remodel makes experience much better. Great place“

“Food and service was fantastic! Cannot wait to come back!!“

“We’ve been here twice. We had the Churrasco steak both times, so yummy. Black beans are excellent. Our waitress Dayelin was great! We eat out quite often, this will be added to our rotation.“

“We have just moved to the area and we're exhausted and very hungry from unpacking all day. From the moment we walked in we were treated like family no request was to big or to small. The service was exceptional and food was absolutely delicious. Luigi and his staff went above and beyond. Definitely our go to Italian Restaurant.“

“Leo was hands down one of the best servers we’ve had in a long time. He introduced himself to everyone at the table, was super friendly, and made us feel welcome right away. He was incredibly attentive without hovering. Our drinks were always refilled before we even had to ask, and he checked on us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. He also took the time to chat with us and made the whole experience feel more personal. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers. Great attitude, great service, and just an all-around kind person. Leo made our meal even more enjoyable, and we’d be happy to have him as our server again!“

“We are Sicilian decent wanted to try for my birthday. We ordered a Marguerita pie , eggplant parm, two seafood dishes and some soup. Staff was very nice and attentive. I liked that the food was not salty at all and you can add your own. My parents are hard to impress but my father loved it. He said “this is real pizza”. Set your expectations, this is not a brick oven pizzeria in Sicily. It’s a humble place in Florida , very clean and simple , reminds me of Nona’s food. Ohh the cannolis were 😚 yummy !! Crispy shell. I would go back just to have them !! You won’t be disappointed!!“

“baked ziti, excellent white pizza, excellent those garlic rolls.... incredible 🖤 Our new GO TO“

“Absolutely the best Italian food we have had in all of Southwest Florida in the 23 years we have lived here. I can’t believe that it’s taken us this long to come here. Being from New Jersey, we are pretty picky about our Italian food. This restaurant is absolutely incredible. We even took a dessert to go home, because we were too full from the main course to eat it there. You will not be disappointed with anything you pick from the menu. It is absolutely delicious. Everything tastes like your Italian grandma just cooked it. Do yourself a favor. Don’t wait 20 years like I did. Just go.“

“Food is amazing! The specials are always delicious! we enjoy coming at least once a week, all of the staff are great! never had a bad experience or dish and my husband has probably tried almost the entire menu!“

“Thank you so much for the complementary garlic knots!!! 🥰 I always order extra garlic and they remembered me“

“Love this place.. it’s definitely my neighborhood go to. We especially love Brook!! She’s like family to us, she is professional, curious, and has a wonderful customer satisfaction rating.. the place was updated tasteful and didn’t skip a beat as the transition was flawless! Very proud to shout out praises!!!“

“We're visiting from Pennsylvania and have gotten pizza from here twice this past week. SOOO good!!! The 8 corner pizza is where it's at!!!!“

“Much has changed, like they gave up on the patio. I enjoyed the outdoor patio and live music but now there is little of it. The servers are nice to me and my dog. The menu is simply but good. The drink prices were reasonable and the beer is cold. Hope they get better.“

“Food was delivered quick and fresh. We ordered the detroit style. It was great!“
