“This is by far the best restaurant on the island. I'm well aware that Amelia Island has many phenomenal restaurants. However, David's is the best of the best.”

“Food was very good. Only shortfall was an under seasoned short rib. Service was good, room is a little cramped. They need to get a liquor license. A pre meal cocktail would be nice.”
“We ate in the courtyard area. It was peaceful and quiet (with excellent ?). The food is absolutely amazing. We've been following the owners career for many years and are always excited to eat anything coming out of his kitchen✅?”

“Amazing atmosphere and delicious food! We loved every bite and got a second round of small plates because it was that good! Tell me what other restaurant you can go to where the owner greets you and guides you through the entire menu board in extensive detail, answers any questions, then checks on you 3 times during your meal… Nathalie Wu and crew you are more than 5 stars! We will definitely be back!!Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere plenty of space for everyone.”

“We visited here twice during our stay on the island. As my 7 year old said when asked if she liked the food, it was amazing. We had the privilege of meeting the owner who couldn’t have been nicer. This is Cuban food with a modern twist. All very good and fresh. We will make this a regular stop when we visit.”
“On N. 3rd St, Fernandina Beach, FL. Good seafood choices at fair prices, shaded outdoor seating only and some beer choices. Public parking across the street. Baja boxes with grilled shrimp/tuna (10.99 each) were very good.”

“We went to Mason's in Fernandina Beach, Florida. The clerk taking our order explained what each lobster roll contained and how it was prepared. We ordered lobster rolls and my spouse ordered lobster bisque and I ordered the New England clam chowder. Being from New England, I was anxious to see if their chowder measured up to "real" New England clam chowder. It was as good as or better!! The lobster rolls were toasted perfectly and full of lobster-they didn't skimp. We ate on their porch - a nice spot to enjoy lunch and people watch. Wish they'd open a spot here in New England!”
“Number one with my family!! Warm, courteous, caring service. Food is off the chain great! Innovative Mex cuisine!! Never disappointed with welcome, food, drinks, or service!! MamaJama!! ”
“Best burger we've had so far! The wait staff is extremely friendly!Kid-friendliness: My 17 year grand daughter and 7 year old loved the burgers and fries! Great place to eat! We will definitely be back!”

“Loved Mocama Beer Company- and my wife was so happy they had a full coffee bar!The brewery and tasting room was beautiful and clean- even the flight boards were immaculate.The beers were delicious, my favorite was the Cosmico IPA, though the Dune Garden- an unassuming lager was a surprising treat and probably one of my top 5 lagers ever.The staff was welcoming, and we chatted with a few members of their team, including the head brewer.I highly recommend a visit to Mocama when visiting Amelia Island.”

“Grilled Mahi and Shrimp were EXCELLENT!!! Sooo much food, I had to take half of it home. Wonderful food, wonderful service! I highly recommend if your looking for a good meal.”
“Had dinner here one evening on our vacation- got in quickly & our server was friendly. Strong food and beer selection. Overall, food was general beach bar fare: seafood, burgers, etc. My son did get the gator bites, but tasted more fried breading than meat. Great location on the marina- I could imagine there's a great happy hour or late night atmosphere.”
“The pizza here is amazing! Crust is thin and crispy. White pizza was the best I have ever eaten. A must order. This place is in a random strip plaza. Don't let the outside deter you. Definitely will go back on our next visit to the island.”
“I wish the young girl on the counter was trained in how to communicate politely with customers. Would have improved this experience considerably. We were excited but underwhelmed here.”
“During my vacation in Fernandina Beach I visited this place where you can have an exquisite Cuban coffee, some sweet AND savory delicacies And the best thing is that they speak Spanish ?”
“This place has it all: Excellent food, relaxed friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices. We’ve dined at several places on Amelia Island and felt either sick from cheap bar food or snubbed by pretentious places. Bar Zin left us full and happy. Menu choices; curry ceasar salad, shrimp and crab dip, chicken picada, scallops, snapper. Yum!”
“One of the best mexican restaurants around Fernandina/ Yulee area! Pretty outside patio, beautiful scenery, good priced food and margs! The staff is also well trained and very patient! Will always come back!”
“Vegan breakfast burrito on Amelia Island, that says it all. They've been a stalwart here for years. New owner in the last year apparently but vegan options are still good. They included a to -go butter with the food, which is a no-no, but the food was tasty and fresh. Great outdoor sitting space too in addition to nice are inside.”
“So happy Hofbrau Amelia joined the many fabulous restaurants here. We attended the Oktoberfest last year and last evening ate there again. We lived in Munich, Germany 3 yrs where we often had gulaschsuppe…never had any better than what I had right here. The meat was so tender and not a greasy soup. I will order it every time. And, btw, the beer is great!We’ll be back often when visiting Fernandina.”

“Stopped to here for dinner with family. Exceptionally friendly hostess who sat us almost immediately despite them being busy on a Saturday night. Nicely located in a cute little downtown area. Food was very good from an entrée standpoint. We ordered calamari was a lot more breading than actual calamari and was a little overdone. Other than that the chicken Parm entrée was outstanding, the shrimp and scallop Diablo was very good. Would absolutely come back here again. I would say the only true downside outside of the calamari is once we were seated. It took a little while for a server to come by and take any order. Still if you’re in the area don’t let that distract you from going. We will be back.”
“Upscale breakfast, John, our server was wonderful. Whitty and attentive to our needs. Food was delicious and visually pleasant. Well done interior adds to the ambiance. Will bring friends on the next visit.”
“Absolutely delicious! Definitely the freshest pokè bowl I’ve had in a long time. Even while incredibly busy, the service was great. I’ll definitely be back!”
“It is a great local sports bar style that offers tasty BBQ and several fish choices. There is ample room to relax and a total bar area to watch games.If you are in the area looking for tasty sports pub food, this is your go-to. Nestled between resorts. Locals, and Onward to Fernandina Beach. #904food”
“Sadly, Joe's 2nd Street Bistro is permanently closed as of January 1st 2024Service is always excellent at Joe's 2nd Street Bistro and food is delicious! Great place for Sunday lunch yesterday. They are carefully practicing social distancing even though it is too cold for their lovely outdoor seating. The courtyard is a treat in the summer - shaded with a tinkling fountain. House wines are nice and very fairly priced. Everything from big burgers to local shrimp entrees. Really a great place to relax and enjoy your meal.”
“Have been enjoying sushi here for almost three years now. Creative, fresh, and delicious. Staff is first rate. It’s a gem .Parking: It’s in a shopping center so parking is no problem except on rare occasions and there is lots of it.”
“Absolutely hands down one of our favorite restaurants on the island and the absolute BEST for steaks. Gordon is an absolute riot and Graving is phenomenal. You cannot go wrong requesting either as your server and Rachel, the manager is absolutely fantastic...and has an amazing jewelry business on the side. If you want a steak do not go to Baxter's unless you'd like poor service and rubber.... Bob's has a wonderful atmosphere, friendly, attentive staff that remember you and make you feel special (and in Gordon's case you get a free comedy show), and incredible food. I highly recommend the mushrooms as well. Bob's is our go to for fine dining and a fun lovely yet friendly intimate atmosphere. Make sure you take a moment to relax by the fire pits and enjoy the march/golf course views.”
“It was the first night that pizza was back on the menu. 12” pies had nice slightly charred and chewy crust. Our server Liam was excellent. Both he and Llew were helpful with suggestions for one in our party that has dietary restrictions.”
“First time there. I ordered the filet special to go and was beyond delighted with the quality, freshness of the vegetables and flavoring on every item in the dinner. It was DELICIOUS! Far better than a few other places, in the same range of food type, locally. I could not recommend it more.”
“Great Thai food and eclectic atmosphere and friendly service ? ? ? and hospitalityVegetarian options: Thai or Asian vegetables etc etc ?Dietary restrictions: Avoid peanuts ? or nutsParking: Good parking in the plaza of the Ahan Thai Kitchen ?Kid-friendliness: Can bring children”
“Hands down the best Chinese food in Amelia Island!! It is take out only but still excellent! The owner has great customer service skills.Really cool guy and phenomenal food!”
“The food was awesome and they had a vegan choice which also was very good!!! We had wonderful friendly service and we were asked how our dining experience was which I thought was extra special. I would highly recommend this restaurant.”
“Really the best of Chinese food in Fernandina! They will prep/ make / cook just the way you like it…. Very friendly place, goes out of there way … dine in or take out option…. Oh delivery also!!! All I’m saying is give them a try, just a small business you will be supporting. ”
“I am always hesitant to try hotel restaurants but after coming here I was so impressed. The food was exceptional and presentation is lovely. I had arrived back to Omni late, so I had dinner an hour before closing time. The baked oysters were the most delicious I’ve ever had from any place. The shrimp and grits so hearty. My stomach was so happy. I highly recommend you have at least one meal here during your stay at Omni Resort.”

“The coffee is great and the space is beautiful! However there are always random children running around. idk why parents would bring their toddlers to a literal brewery.”
“Visited the deli while I was here for work. Wonderful owners helped me with my deli needs. Decent selection of meats. Recommended some brats that I needed to try.”

“Just wanted a great sweet for after dinner. Coconut creme pie was outstanding! We were hoping to get a specific pastry but it was sold out. Never thought I'd love the pie as much as I did. Perfection! Thank you!”
“On 4th St, downtown Fernandina Beach, FL: Small place (4 tables inside, 2 outside) that serves very tasty salads and sandwiches, e.g., reuben, roast beef & turkey and amelia club on bread choice - ciabatta, rye or white.”
“I didn't know this sliders also housed a Tortuga Jack's. Very pleasantly surprised by that lol. We got there just as they opened, so everything was fresh and hot and really good. The only downfall, was today the weather was on the cool side. I'm quite sure it would have been a much better experience had it been warmer outside. It was really nice though. We will be going back.”
“Service was pleasant and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their food selections. Irish Beef Stew was rich and hearty. The fish and chips were delicious and well portioned. The Reuben sandwich was piled high and very tasty. Nice selection of brews, not many but varied enough to make everyone happy. We were inside but there was a band playing outside. It looked like everyone on the patio were enjoying themselves go back again.”
“I've been living here in the state of Florida for over 30 years. I'm originally from Ohio and I got a gyro. It was the best I've had since I've been living here in Florida. That is the place you want to go if you want a good ”
“I love fancy sushi! such a nice spot to eat. I have been there many times since we moved and even before we moved we loved it from the start. The service is very nice I love that they offer some appetizers before the entree its always nice and the sushi is always so good! They are also very friendly.”
“Brayden is super sweet and conversational! He makes great ice cream, but I was kinda disappointed to see that he was the only one working when the store was very packed with families! He definitely deserves a raise.”
“We ordered The catch of the day BLT, Lobster Roll sandwich, beer & a White Peach Sangria. The food was great. Lobster Roll was full of meat. My 4 comes because the Sangria was very watered down & not much flavor ..like it was pre poured & the ice melted. We sat for over 10 min before our server even acknowledged we were there, after passing by several times. The atmosphere was fun! Live music. We will be back for sure.”
“We were visiting Amelie Islands and saw the restaurant from far away and we had to visit.It was a great choiceLocation, food, live music… ocean, birds were stealing our fries but we had fun with it.Food was really tasty. Everything came quick.I highly recommend this placePrices are reasonable ♥️”

“Great location, incredible atmosphere & superb food! Taco Tuesday offered a solid buy one margarita, get your next one 1/2price special! This place is known for a superior tequila selection & definitely does not disappoint. The real winner on Tuesday was the Taco Flight- choose 4 tacos for only $15!!The Birria tacos are by far the best around with the Chorizo Queso coming in a close second.”
“Amazing Food with Amazing History. We love eating here and have been for 20 years. The food is always incredibly good with unique options that satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. We have had some less than awesome service the last couple of visits but we don't expect it to be the norm. Hours are limited so make sure that you double check to ensure they are open. This is hands down the best Brunch on the Island and unlimited mix and match Mimosas/Bloody Maries for only $10 makes it even better. We highly recommend this place and think you will love it. We Recommend the Shrimp and Grits or "The Hoss" but literally, everything on the menu is excellent.”

“Yes Daniel.. there is a dress code, no beach ware. This is a private club. The service is amazing. I have no idea how people are commenting on Long Point, if they are not members. If they are members their comments should be directed to the Long Point manager, who is always there for lunch and dinner. Our family loves Long Point, and I have never heard a negative comment from any Club member.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“We called way too close to their closing time but they still had amazing customer service. The person on the phone was super helpful and answered all of our questions. Our food was delivered fast and was so so so good! I’m glad we ordered from here and will keep ordering from here whenever we are in town visiting.”
“Best subway ever! The man working and the lady were both very sweet and organized and prompt! Also my sandwich was made with love :) thank you guys so much for the pleasant lunch on a Friday afternoon.”
“Wife & I went for the first time. Ordered the Stromboli. Wow! What a treat. Best I've ever had! Service was amazing, Place was clean & ambiance was relaxing. Definitely going back!”
“Amazes me to see cars lined up 10 deep at the other coffee place down the street when 7Brew serves better drinks with no long lines, and friendly staff on every visit. 7Brew is the place to go.Parking: Easy parking or drive-thru”
“i wanted to leave a review bc these people are so nice and patient!!! i work out in amelia island and have started going there on my breaks and 3 days in a row they were so kind and patient. the woman who is running the window/drive thru lately is such a sweetheart and so lovely. love this place!”
“We’re visiting from out of town & I’ve been a huge Taco Bell fan for years, so much so that friends & family give me Taco Bell gift cards for birthdays & Christmas. Every town I go to in the US, I always have to have Taco Bell & I will say this specific Taco Bell (023699) is probably one of the best in the country. I’ve been 3 times in 4 days. The first 2 times I went around 11pm - 12am & both times the food was on point. The refried beans weren’t all dried out like they tend to be, the ingredients were spread throughout the entire length of the burrito as opposed to all on one side. I thought maybe it was just the same person both nights making the food, but then we decided to stop & get it again on our way out of town today at around 12:30pm & it was the same! I’m very impressed! Keep up the great service!Vegetarian options: You can literally veganize anything on the menu.”
“Friendliest, fastest service! Can't get through the day without my coffee from these amazing ladies! Thank you Tasha, Alisha and Natasha for brightening my day!”
“I had to wait for my order of 4 meal combos, which was fine and when they brought my food they gave me 2 meals vouchers and free cookies. That was going above and beyond so thank you guys.. yall are doing an amazing job!!”

Cheap Eats
“Amazing Taco's for Sure! I highly recommend this place. First off, Noelle and Jared are SUPER AWESOME PEOPLE! Very friendly service, and the food was Absolutely Amazing. The way they fry the tortillas makes them super crunchy with a unique texture (I don't know how they do it) and they are out of this world! I had the number 1 comb, 1 chicken w/green sauce, one beef w/ red sauce. They come with Rice and Beans. The quality is outstanding! I could easily eat there every other day and never get burnt out on the food or the fellowship ? Sorry I didn't take any pictures...it smelled so good that I never even opened the container ?✌️Parking: They are located right on the side of the road. You can just pull off into the grass or gravel, easy peasy. If you pass it, just turn around at your safest convenience.”
“A local favorite! Really fresh food and great service. The menu has many great options. My fav is the Shack salad. Fresh! I wish more places would use fresh avocado and celery in salads.”
“Reasonable prices, good food, service decent. They sometimes are slow because they get crowded and don’t have enough staff. You know it’s good when you look around and it’s mainly older people. I love going here, and recommend this place to anyone. A hidden gem on the island.”

“Absolutely incredible service great atmosphere! I did eat my food like 30 mins late (not their fault )so I didn't get the best first impression of a Jersy Mike's but I liked the menu and I'll be ”
“Good Ole home town cooking with a wide variety of country favorites that are all done to perfection, Mike and Kim put out such a spread of food for prices you cannot pass and I guarantee you won't go home hungry.”
“It was outstanding! Hands down the best bbq in Northeast Florida we've had since moving here many years ago!We got ribs, 1/4 chicken, and pulled pork. Beautiful bark, very tender, and perfectly cooked. Sauce comes on the side and it was good but honestly, the rub they use is so flavorful, you don't even need sauce. I can't wait to be hungry again so I can come back!”
“I dropped in for a late breakfast today and was very pleased with the service and meal I received. I had the everything bagel with bacon and egg and cheese. The bagel sandwich was amazing and the service was friendly. I got my meal not long after ordering. The decor inside and out was very cool with neon tiki's and an island theme. I would definitely recommend Aloha Bagel and Bakery.”
“My friends and I eat at the Hidden Crab every Friday night it's become our place to chill and unwind from the week. Our waitress knows exactly what we want everytime we come in. Love it!!”
“I was here in February 2020 and got great service. But I was the only one here. I do wish they would bring back the chocolate peanut butter ice cream! But I guess that isn't under this location's control. The only thing I could have asked for is chocolate ice cream. They didnt have straight chocolate ice cream for sale, which is odd since they had Pistachio. Yuck.”
“Lovely ladies in the store. Very friendly and polite. Waited on me with patience. I give them 10 stars if I could. And bring a tag if they don't have it you'll get a free double scoop of ice ”
“We ordered pickup for dinner tonight after a crazy day. The guy on the phone was friendly, helpful and funny too. Seriously the best lasagna I've ever tasted. My daughter got pizza and my son got spaghetti, they both loved theirs too! 5 stars. Every time.”
“Fun experience. Just to sitting at a 120 year old bar was amazing by Florida standards. When we asked about certain mixed drinks our engaging bartender Johnny explained the difference between a saloon and a bar. Basically a Saloon doesn't have all the ingredients for fancy drinks. Hence we defaulted to a very well made old fashioned and, gin martini. We definitely look forward to returning!”
“The service was great - even though the place was busy we got our food quickly and it was amazing. Everything tasted so great and we can’t wait to come back again.”
“We were the only ones at 130p. Guess th3 crowd was gone. We met the server at the bar, placed our drink and food order. Wings and Pizza. 10 minutes later she served us. Probably some of the best wings I have ever had. Great flavor, great presentation. I got the spicy ones, did I mention great flavor? Pepperoni Pizza was flavorful, little greasy, but nothing a napkin couldn't soak up. Can't wait to get back to the wings! Keep up the great flavors!”
“We were visiting Amelie Islands and saw the restaurant from far away and we had to visit.It was a great choiceLocation, food, live music… ocean, birds were stealing our fries but we had fun with it.Food was really tasty. Everything came quick.I highly recommend this placePrices are reasonable ♥️”
“Great location, incredible atmosphere & superb food! Taco Tuesday offered a solid buy one margarita, get your next one 1/2price special! This place is known for a superior tequila selection & definitely does not disappoint. The real winner on Tuesday was the Taco Flight- choose 4 tacos for only $15!!The Birria tacos are by far the best around with the Chorizo Queso coming in a close second.”
“Wonderful atmosphere! Lee, our guy was good...great humor, great attitude, very attentive and to me that says alot! Charcuterie was amazing, enjoyed the outside patio with a good happy hour! Definitely coming back.”
“We love the pina coladas…The app and badge system is confusing and a downgrade from our original card system. I’m sure we’ll was meant but it needs help. Fish tacos were just …ok. Pool is not crowded and kiddie pool is available.”
“Alisha is always so wonderful. Sometimes I just don't feel like cooking dinner. Just ordering from her makes my evening easier. I go home with dinner and a smile.”

“Ate here twice during my stay. The first dish was the tuna bowl. It had good flavor but could have used a little more dressing. BUT they had some sort of chip or breading in the dish but it was extremely hard (or stale). It hurt my teeth everytime i bit into them.Second day i had the street tacos. The fish of the day was mahi and it was delicious. The shirmp taco was kinda boring and the chicken was enjoyable but not super great.Friendly staff with great service! Flore was our server!!! Give her a raise! ;)”

“This store is a wonderful place to shop and since the manager has gotten rid of some employees that were not a good fit for this family store it is so much better the guy named mike and the one who wrote the last review is who i am talking about. Keep up the great job.”
“Anytime I can break away and head to the island before 2 pm, this is my go-to spot!! Even when crowded, the service is always great, and the food fresh and delicious”
“Number one with my family!! Warm, courteous, caring service. Food is off the chain great! Innovative Mex cuisine!! Never disappointed with welcome, food, drinks, or service!! MamaJama!! ”
“Stopped to here for dinner with family. Exceptionally friendly hostess who sat us almost immediately despite them being busy on a Saturday night. Nicely located in a cute little downtown area. Food was very good from an entrée standpoint. We ordered calamari was a lot more breading than actual calamari and was a little overdone. Other than that the chicken Parm entrée was outstanding, the shrimp and scallop Diablo was very good. Would absolutely come back here again. I would say the only true downside outside of the calamari is once we were seated. It took a little while for a server to come by and take any order. Still if you’re in the area don’t let that distract you from going. We will be back.”
“This place has it all: Excellent food, relaxed friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices. We’ve dined at several places on Amelia Island and felt either sick from cheap bar food or snubbed by pretentious places. Bar Zin left us full and happy. Menu choices; curry ceasar salad, shrimp and crab dip, chicken picada, scallops, snapper. Yum!”
“We ordered The catch of the day BLT, Lobster Roll sandwich, beer & a White Peach Sangria. The food was great. Lobster Roll was full of meat. My 4 comes because the Sangria was very watered down & not much flavor ..like it was pre poured & the ice melted. We sat for over 10 min before our server even acknowledged we were there, after passing by several times. The atmosphere was fun! Live music. We will be back for sure.”
“We LOVED this place. Everything, from the way we were greeted, to the creative menu, to the caring wait staff, to the exceptional food and wine / cocktail selections were top notch. If we could give it 10 stars we wouldVegetarian options: Easier if you are a pescatarian, as we are... But you would be fine”
“Dining outside with my family while the sun set with live music out on their patio felt more like a short vacation than dinner. Staff were very attentive and the dinner was savory and dessert was tasted like it shouldn’t have been shared.Kid-friendliness: We all danced to the live music along with another family and their toddlers. Bathrooms were clean and spacious enough to bring three kiddos at a time to wash hands.”
“Visited the deli while I was here for work. Wonderful owners helped me with my deli needs. Decent selection of meats. Recommended some brats that I needed to try.”
“So fresh and so delicious, we can't wait to go again! We dined on a weekday night, and it was an excellent experience. Our server had great knowledge of the menu, including great food and wine suggestions. She even taught us about the chef technique regarding the vibrant green of the pesto, very fascinating. The best southern Italian food in the area, the chef and staff truly enjoy sharing their love for Sicily with guests and it shines through their service and food.Vegetarian options: Several dishes do not contain meat, for example the Pesto Gnocchi.Parking: Free public parking lot right across the way, as well as free public street parking.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pasta available upon request.”
“Adorrableee outdoor seating, with live music, and delicious food! The drunken cheesy bread is a *must* do, then I got the berry salad and it was exactly what I wanted, fresh and delicious! The tuna special that night was a 10/10 for my boyfriend. Also our server, (Jackie I think) was insanely sweet & efficient, really the best server we had on vacation there, so shoutout Jackie you’re killing it. Would love to go back!”

“On N. 3rd St, Fernandina Beach, FL. Good seafood choices at fair prices, shaded outdoor seating only and some beer choices. Public parking across the street. Baja boxes with grilled shrimp/tuna (10.99 each) were very good.”

“Amazing atmosphere and delicious food! We loved every bite and got a second round of small plates because it was that good! Tell me what other restaurant you can go to where the owner greets you and guides you through the entire menu board in extensive detail, answers any questions, then checks on you 3 times during your meal… Nathalie Wu and crew you are more than 5 stars! We will definitely be back!!Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere plenty of space for everyone.”

“One of the best mexican restaurants around Fernandina/ Yulee area! Pretty outside patio, beautiful scenery, good priced food and margs! The staff is also well trained and very patient! Will always come back!”
“Here's another restaurant added to my favorite restaurant to go back to in downtown Amelia Island. Amazing view of water topped it off with a nice lunch and friendly crews. My husband had the shrimp po boy and I had the Buffalo shrimp salad, both are exquisitely tasty. I also tried the crab hush puppies- I tasted a touch of crab in it but I was expecting more of crabs. But overall, I liked what ww ordered. The nice view and tasty food made it very easy for me to rate it 5 star. With an appetizer (crab grit au gratin) and 2 meals plus 3 drinks totalled $97 without tip.”
“Had a most delightful lunch with my sister. I ordered the blackened chicken tacos, a perfect portion and was delicious. Best of all was the service by Chrissy. I suggest you go try and ask for Chrissy..”
“We visited here twice during our stay on the island. As my 7 year old said when asked if she liked the food, it was amazing. We had the privilege of meeting the owner who couldn’t have been nicer. This is Cuban food with a modern twist. All very good and fresh. We will make this a regular stop when we visit.”
“We went to Arte pizza on the Booze & Bites Tour. The food was amazing! We had garlic knots, pizza, and canolli’s. Everything was delicious! Jimmy took great care of us. He made great drink recommendations for the table. He was a great part of our tour!”
