50 Best Italian Restaurants near Cooper City

“Delicious food, great atmosphere, and wonderful service. My family and I love this place.“

“I never thought I would write a bad review about Vita. But they have really Changed. I was one of their first customers and have lived right down the street from them for 35 years. I go in for lunch usually 3-4 times a week and we go to dinner about 5 times a month. Many times with friends. I of course am in their computer as a regular customer. Which shouldn’t matter and didn’t. They had coupons and one was buy an entree and get the 2nd one for 1/2 price CASH ONLY. It’s NOT the 1/2 off but the principal, attitude and being money hungry not caring less about the customer. I told them placing the order on the phone. I only had a $100 bill. “NO PROBLEM” was the response and she never asked about the tip. The total using the coupon was about $31. The driver showed up and they didn’t give him enough for the change after order and tip. Instead of a $7 tip I would have had to make it $34 with the money they sent him with. Or reduce his tip a lot. I told him I could pay with a credit card and would even pay a few percent to cover the credit card fee. They told the driver to charge $46(adding $2.25 that didn’t figure with the 2 now full price entrees, delivery fee and tax???) now eliminating the coupon. I just paid him as it wasn’t his fault, he said he was new and had other deliveries getting cold as today there is record cold. The driver at no point even wanted the coupon. I called Vita after he left. Not only was the women who answered rude. She first transferred me and after 6 minutes someone just picked up the phone and hung it up. I called right back, transferred again and after 8 minutes a man who refused to give me his name answered. I am sure the food was cold by then. The idiot at Vito told me to wait and after the driver was done with deliveries, went back for change and then would come back to me. I then could pay cash and they would cancel the credit card charge. I asked how long and the answer was “I have no idea, but he’s busy wait OUTSIDE for him”. I simply said the food was probably already cold and would be useless by then. If I wanted a microwave dinner I would have paid a lot less for one at Publix. He said “F… YOU” and hung up. None of this was my fault. I know the old Vita would have probably said just keep it and we won’t charge you. No matter how good their food maybe when NOT cold. The way I was charged, spoken too and treated is totally unacceptable. No matter how busy or anything else. I am still the customer and told them I just had a $100 bill. What I and my wife was left with was a $54 credit card charge just for 2 entree with one supposed to be 1/2 price but wasn’t(FYI a soup or salad was free with each meal and there was 1 salad and no soup when we ordered 2 soups no salad also no garlic rolls), cold useless food and indigestion. Also a restaurant we, our friends(we introduced to Vita over many years) and neighbors will never use again. Also at anytime they could have called back to make this right. I waited 4 hours to make sure trying to give them a chance to realize what they have done before writing the review. Nothing from them. However, checking online they did put the credit card charge through. Vito can find this review on every site including Next Door, Cooper City, Davie, Facebook(5000 friends many local and over 100,000 followers), Davie/Cooper City Magazine and their own web site. It’s a shame how some businesses just ask to lose customers especially reading other reviews. The whole exchange with the driver including sound was caught on my camera. Please try Luv’N Oven right across the street. East and the food is just as good with no problems or drama. The prices are also cheaper. The only difference is Vita is next to Publix. So a little more convenient.“

“At SoFlo Cinema Club, we love pairing our movies with good food & Mister 01 was the place to do it.

It was 7/8 of our first time there & we were surprised at how good it was.

I personally got the “Mimmo” pizza & it’s still on my mind days later.“

“Don’t sleep on the Lunch Menu… those paninis are mind blowing. Everything from the fluffy, crispy bread, amazing fillings, and condiments blend together perfectly. It’s quieter and brighter at lunch, so a completely different vibe. Highly recommend!! Hubby loves short rib panini and I crave spicy vodka chicken or ya sista’s cutlet.“

“When we got stranded without baggage and only the gym clothes on our back for a night, these folks welcomed us in with open arms when no other restaurant in the area would because we didn’t meet their dress code. Food was wonderful as was the staff. Thanks y’all!“

“Excellent place for a business meal or date. Everything was homemade & delicious. The duck ragu will knock your socks off! Nice wine list too.“

“Complimeenti! Una vera pizza napoletana, degna della nostra grande tradizione.“

“Amazing place! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The food was fantastic, the ingredients were fresh, and every dish was full of authentic Italian flavor.
Our waiter Ruslan was exceptional—kind, attentive, and genuinely cared that we had a great experience. He gave great recommendations, checked on us at just the right moments, and made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers.
If you’re looking for delicious Italian cuisine and first-class service, Lemonica is definitely worth a visit. We’ll be back for sure! 🇮🇹🍋“

“Kudos to you guys. Murano by Ferraro is an upscale yet casual Italian dining experience which offers an elegant, comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The wine selection is outstanding and is accompanied by an array of truly delicious authentic Italian quizine for even the most discriminating palates.

We went for my Birthday and was exceptionally attended!!!

We'll be definitely back... Thank you“

“By far the best & our favorite pizza (we’ve tried a lot!) and the gelato was absolutely amazing. Don’t miss it if you’re visiting South Florida! Can’t wait to visit again. I wish you could ship your pasta 🥲❤️“

“Everything tastes delicious! From the bread, the salads, the pastas, the steaks, the fish and desserts! Served with great attention! I love it and wished they had a restaurant downtown Fort Lauderdale!“

“Found this great little homemade pasta restaurant on an internet search. Thank goodness! A wonderful ambiance supported by an interactive staff and superb food. The manager was very engaging and certainly proud of the menu and their homemade pasta. The entrees (see photos) were great and the Bruschetta was fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience.“

“From the moment I stepped into Cucina Italiana, I knew I was in for a treat. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between elegance and comfort, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Our server was both knowledgeable and attentive, recommending the perfect pairings for our meal. To start, the bruschetta was a symphony of flavors, with the freshest tomatoes and just the right hint of garlic. The main course, homemade fettuccine alfredo, was nothing short of spectacular, showcasing the chef’s expertise with perfectly cooked pasta and a creamy, rich sauce that was flavorful yet not overwhelming. What truly set Cucina Italiana apart was the attention to detail. From the perfectly timed courses to the subtle yet inviting decor, every aspect of our meal was thoughtfully curated. As for dessert, the tiramisu was a delightful end to our meal. It was airy, with just the right touch of espresso, leaving us thoroughly satisfied yet longing for our next visit. In a nutshell, Cucina Italiana is not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey that I would recommend to anyone seeking an exceptional Italian dining experience in Dania Beach. It’s a must-visit for locals and tourists alike. Bravo! Feel free to adjust this review to better match your personal experience at the restaurant!“

“Ian made our night at Cucina Moderna. He was friendly and attentive without ever hovering, knew the menu inside and out, and his recommendations were spot on. Everything came out on time, our drinks never ran low, and he genuinely seemed to care that we were having a good time. Great service like this is hard to find, and it's a big reason we'll be back. Ask for Ian if you can!“

“We get takeout and the pizza is always excellent! They listen to how you want it and make it to perfection. Their garlic rolls are sooo good too! We recently ordered their Greek salad and it didn’t disappoint. Love that they are just down the road!“

“Am amazing place for meeting with friends and enjoying a great traditional east european and italian cuisine. The music is making the atmosphere even more immersive. Many thanks Michael for your service and to owners for hospitality!!🥰🥰🍷🍷🧆🍛“

“Cozy restaurant & great food. Reasonably priced too. Can’t wait to return for Lisa’s Spicy Chicken. It was fabulous !“

“We had lunch at Cucina Alfresco this week and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the portions were very generous. The garlic rolls were some of the best we ever had and the pizza was perfectly prepared. We finished the meal with a wonderful homemade Tiramisu. I highly recommend Cucina Alfresco. You won’t be disappointed!“

“So yummy and light .. what a refreshing desert“

“What an amazing small restaurant!! all homemade YUMMY food and wonderful ambiance!! An absolute must if you are in the Hollywood, Florida!!“

“Wow! So I have had my fair share of Italian food growing up with a family in New York and this place gives the best of what I have had a run for its money. Did take out last night and got home to discover some of the best food I’ve had in a very long time. The sauce is outstanding and they don’t skimp with it. I love a very saucy veal parm and was nervous that the online ordering did not have an option for extra sauce. I was very relieved when opening my order that I didn’t need it. Can’t wait to eat in person because the restaurant has an extremely cozy and intimate atmosphere. Don’t sleep on this place. Head over now!!“

“Highly recommended! The pinsa was delicious, with a light, crispy, and flavorful crust. The pasta was excellent, and the tiramisu was absolutely amazing. Andrea, our host, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and incredibly welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Antonio's Pizza-Rant is absolutely the premier Italian restaurant in all of South Florida. Every pizza is unparalleled in excellent quality, authentic taste, and impeccable flavor. My friends and I have been coming here for years, always greeted by name and with a smile from excellent servers. Anthony, the owner, is clearly a great man of his family and community who does everything he can to provide a positive experience for all visitors. There is so much care put in to every meal. Antonio's is truly the perfect spot for any assortment of friends and family. Whenever I'm in town again, Antonio's will be the #1 place to be!“

“Great service. Quality food.“

“Unbelievably great food and service My Wife hosted my 70-birthday dinner at Capriccio's and all I can say was it was one of the most enjoyable dinner experiences I have had in a very long time. Capriccio’s is a warm, friendly place, with fabulous food and an unsurpassed wait staff, led by William. Having my family and friends celebrate this occasion with me will be a wonderful memory. Everyone attending could not stop raving about the food. Needless to say, Capriccio’s has some new customers!“

“El lugar es muy acogedor, y la comida es muy buena e innovadora.“

“The pizza is so good and fresh. I would definitely recommend this place. The only thing that’s better than the pizza is the service. I mean the owners are some of the nicest people. if you’re thinking about trying this place do it or else you’re missing out.“

“Outstanding service lovely indoors“

“Celesse was AMAZING!!!!!!! it was decorated adorable. The food was good. The ambiance was nice but having an incredible waitress really made the experience that much better.“

“Just home from my fouth dinner at Mama Mia's with a group of friends down visiting from Rochester NY. Like my first review and my last two dinners (for which I'm remiss for not having reviewed), didn't disappoint. The food cooked Torino style by Mama, delicious, try the meat balls!, and Fredericka, Mama's daughter, and Gerald took great care of us table-side! Such a special new place! The fourth with many more to come!“

“We had the most delicious pizza and salad today paired with incredible garlic rolls. Everything was so flavorful without overpowering the food itself. A special thanks to Debbie, our server. She is so friendly and easy to talk to, attentive but gave us time and space to fully enjoy our meal. Italian songs on the radio made us feel like we transported there. Andrea the manager was very welcoming too! Thank you Don Marko’s chef!“

“Good food and nice atmosphere“

“Ate dinner at Gioia and it was sooo good! They have Gluten Free pizza that tastes so good and fresh. And the Capresse Salad was wonderful. The Montepulciano wine was great also!
