My mushroom pizza tasted like nothing. I needed to add salt badly. The rest of my party complained that their portion of pasta was very small. I'm not a local but I wouldn't come back.

Went at about 7:30-8. There was only one waiter and he wasn't expecting to be so busy. At first it took a while for him to serve us and we weren't thrilled but once he did the service was phenomenal. The food was outstanding. We had pizza and pasta and the bread as well. Hector B was our waiter. He had to deal with a busy crowd and a rude family but handled everything well. Thank you Hector for the great service. If we are ever back in Fort Lauderdale then we will for sure return!

We had it delivered, I am not sure if it's better to eat in. The pizzas we ordered were soggy but the time it arrived. I love Italian cuisine but it came short to me. I will give them another shot.

We were nervous when we got there at 6:15 Tuesday night and there were no other customers. How lucky we were. The place is in the middle of a strip mall, and therefore not very visible. It was charming inside. Our server was terrific, and helped us with our selections. The warm seasoned pita was an unexpected surprise. My wife and I both had the branzino, and it was excellent. My pasta was good, and her potatoes were some of the best we’ve had - certainly Not what we came when selecting an Italian restaurant, but we will definitely be back and will have them again.

Overall, the experience was poor. I believe they were short staffed tonight. If I didn't form that opinion from what I over heard from some of the staff, I could have easily formed it from the lack of attention from the waiter. From the moment we sat down until we gave up and left it was a struggle to be served. We ordered an appetizer, salad and entrees. We waited over 30 minutes for the appetizer and after more than hour never received the salad. No one ever asked if we wanted another drink or anymore water. We finally left some money for the glass of wine and the appetizer and walked out. We ended up at Shake Shack.

The best pizza of Fort Lauderdale!!! The crust is thin and crunchy, the right amount and quality of cheese. We are pizza lovers and we are so happy we found this place near by. Pastas are amazing also, we had the Penne with Salmon and the pizza with truffle and mushrooms.

The absolute BEST Italian food in South Florida hands down. Everything is home made from the pizza dough to the tiramisu! I am from Boston (we have outstanding Italian food) I come down to Florida to visit family often and if you know Florida you know it's hard to find quality service and FOOD. This is the best I've been to yet in the 20 years I've been coming down. The best pizza out of a real oven, the best FRESH Branzino (NOT FROZEN), the best tiramisu (made in house). I mean I'm a critic (been in the restaurant industry for a long time) and I have literally nothing bad to say, not even constructive criticism!! Don't spend your money on any other Italian restaurant in South Florida. Oh and the service.. just as amazing as the food, family owned, OUTSTANDING. Seriously South Florida is lucky to have a restaurant this good! I am so happy to have found this place and very much looking forward to my next visit.
Amazing food, great service, fresh ingredients. I studied abroad in Italy for four months- I haven't been there in a year and this restaurant makes me feel like I'm back in Rome. From the menu, the food, and the desserts it's the best Italian restaurant in south Florida!!

Outstanding service and food! A hidden gem in Sunrise well worth finding! I'm sorry I did not discover this restaurant years ago!!! The best Italian food I have eaten in Florida and as close to real Italy as I've ever had. So fabulous! Spotless. Delicious. Well-oriced. Great service. Could not give it a better recommendation.

Love this place. Sister restaurant to Osteria Acqua & Farina downtown Fort Lauderdale. Casual atmosphere with fresh ingredients and fantastic service. So glad it's in the neighborhood and we don't have to drive so far south to get great food.

Came here with my cousin and her husband since they were visiting from out of town and hadn't had good pizza yet. This pizza did not disappoint! Very well balanced and delicious. Customer service was great too! Our server was Sarah and she outlined all the specials and recommended this pizza. I should also mention that I love the open kitchen. You can see your pizza going into the huge oven, which is definitely a cool feature of this place.
