8 Best Italian Restaurants near Crystal River

“Been coming here since last Thanksgiving and truly enjoyed the experience and food. Best Italian food I’ve had in this part of Florida by far. Friendly staff and Chef Garcia cooks up a mean dish. Never a bad experience.“

“The only reason I give it a 1 is because the Lasagna was good. Otherwise, it would get a 0 because of the way this arrogant owner treats his customers. Aside from being made to wait at the entrance while he clearly noticed us before finally coming over and saying “Whadda ya want?”, it would take too long to describe his confrontational attitude in response to simply asking about the Lasagna for takeout for four people. You also have to know that you will likely be overcharged. The menu says for $1.99, you can get a salad as a side with an entree. We ordered four salads with the Lasagnas and were charged $5.99 for each…a $16.00 overcharge. I don’t know how he stays in business being so rude and dishonest. We will never go back.“

“I love their food. Everything is perfect every time. Ryan and his crew definitely put love into their food

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp near the entrance and the door is big enough to get a wheelchair or electric scooter through.“
