My wife and I ate here for my birthday. It was pretty good! The stuffed mushrooms were very big. The garlic knots were good but tasted microwaved vs baked. The Calamari was tasty. Our meals came with salad (option of soup), I had the Baked Rigatoni and my wife had the Tortellini Alla Romano. Our entrees came out fast and were good size portions. For dessert my wife ordered a Cannoli and they comped it since it was my birthday. That was really nice of them they sang to me and everything. Overall, very good experience. I would recommend this place to others. Just a heads up they do not take reservations.

Meh... we were told this was ""The Place"" to go for Italian food. Very disappointed. The manager on duty looked and acted like he didn't want to be there, and it reflected in his staff. Our waitress took our order and we never saw her again until we flagged her down to ask for our check. We ordered stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer and the special, which was chicken parm for 2. The mushrooms tasted like dirt, and the chicken parm was very thin and also dry & tough. Not the dinning experience that we were told about.
I was really looking forward to trying their dinner menu a couple weeks ago, had heard nothing but amazing things about this restaurant, but when my husband and i walked in close to the end of our wait time we were instantly treated badly by one of the seating waitresses who proceeded to roll her eyes multiple times and told us if our entire party was not there in time we would be taken off the list and would have to wait another 30+ minutes to be seating. We had already been waiting for over 30 minutes and the rest of our party showed up around the time we were to be seated.. in fact even before this i had put my name on the list and asked politely about what their wait list protocol was and again I got rude remarks and eye rolls by the same women.. my husband and I both quickly decided it was not worth staying for dinner and we all ended up going elsewhere. I’m extremely disappointed about how we were treated as I am a huge Italian fan but honestly that experience left such a bad taste in my mouth I’m not sure I’m going to want to go back.

This is one of my favorite places in Fort Myers. Everyone knows about their garlic knots but the pasta is fresh and delicious, pizza is also worth a try or take home par-baked to bake at home....worth a trip. The prices are reasonable, service is excellent. I have not had anything on the menu that has ever disappointed me. This is a definite place to take visitors when they come to see me. If you come once I promise you will come again.

Great Italian restaurant. We have eaten here a number of times now this year. This place is very busy from 5:00 on, so you might have to wait to get in, but the wait is worth it.

Tourist trap....the cheese in this pizza had a rubbery burnt taste....i don't expect a lot for florida pizza but I've had better pizza in a gas station. Both pies where nasty and thrown away.

Hadn't visited in a while, and tonight's visit really made me ask myself, "Why"?" Enjoyed great meals with friends after a short wait. Our server was Jeff and he was super and full of great ideas. My husband and I chose the fixed price meal for two: manicotti and Italian sausages, included salad or soup, main course and desert ;$29.99 for two! Ample servings and leftovers for tomorrow. REALLY GOOOD. Our friends ordered Veal parm and Saltimbaka. They both loved their choices, also! Great atmosphere! Great service. Thanks again, Jeff. we will request you next time. Ninos is truly a great choice for quality of food and service. Awesome! Maureen & Phil
