“Outstanding service, atmosphere, and live music !! Every dish was stupendous! 👏👏👏👏“

“The most amazing Italian restaurant ever. The food is absolutely amazing. Family owned and they make you feel like part of their family. Could not recommend a better place.“

“4 of us had dinner at Belle and Maxeell’s Saturday night, May 28, 2022. This was our 2nd visit. It won’t be our last. As before, the food was extraordinary. Unfortunately, as so many restaurants, right now, they were severely short handed however, we truly never noticed. The servers took exceptional care of us. Topping off our meal was THE BEST RICOTTA CHEESECAKE we’ve ever eaten. Thank you Belle and Maxwell's for making my Birthday special.“

“My son and I had lunch at Mister and it was extraordinary. We started with the Greta salad: the lettuce was fresh and the cucumbers, olives, and cheese were amazing. the dressing was flavorful and it was light and fresh. The margherita pizza was awesome. The crust was extremely crispy and thin and the cheese was perfect too. The basil and tomato sauce finished off the flavor to make this a positive experience. We had the Nutella Pizza and it was the most amazing treat; nutella and an excellent crust that we have never tasted before! Just awesome; We can't wait to return again to experiment a different pizza! return soon.“

“Had a great meal as usual. Food is superb. Service by John was outstanding. Our favorite restaurant“

“If you like Italian food this place is very good, catch them for the Early Bird Specials and you'll be amazed at the amount of food you get. The garlic rolls are absolutely the best. Enjoy, I usually have the Chicken Parmesan but this time I had the Chicken Scarpariello, can't go wrong with either. The restaurant and restrooms are very clean.

Tom was our server, he was very personable and knowledgeable. He gave me some butternut squash soup to try, which was delicious. Great choice for a dining experience!“

“. I have tried many Italian restaurants in the area and Mattiello’s is the best by far. His is authentic Italian dining He is set up in a food truck on Federal with outdoor seating or takeout. The best lasagna ever!“

“Friday night live music makes fora fun night. The guy who sang is really good!“

“The ceiling was dripping on us the entire evening..I asked servers many times .. all they did was twice came over with something to wipe off the a/c outlet.. I will hesitate to revisit this restaurant, seriously they cannot control the condensation“

“Absolutely exceptional restaurant! The food and service are Amazing! I had risotto al limone with scallops was divine! Also try the veal meatballs for appetizer. Their super Tuscan Il Bracitto wine was perfect! ❤️ Raffaele Ruggeri and his wife are truly an Amazing Team! Thank you! FIVE STARS! Michelin quality food and service!“

“Nice local Florida chain that makes limited pasta dishes and wood fired pizza place. Daily specials. Plenty of outdoor seating, very limited indoor seating. No prices on the wine either bottles or glasses. Service was efficient. The food was good, with a very nice fresh salad and a well cooked wood fired pizza that wasn’t over sauced. We would go back to this location if the weather is conducive to eating Al fresco.“

“As native New Yorkers and Italian foodies, this place is by far the uncontested best Italian food we've found in Florida to date! Savannah our waitress was lovely! And owner Joey is a hoot! And by the way, the prices won't break the bank! Come check it out!! Mangia!!!!“

“Excellent Service & atmosphere! Dinner was delicious! Highly recommend!“

“I’m not a pizza snob, but I love pizza. I’ve had New York’s best like John’s on Bleeker and Ceres.
But I’m telling you…. 👀 The fig jam pizza might be the best pizza in America. If your tastes match Portnoy, this is the place. Wood fired, no flop, perfect crust.“

“Nice spot, good food and the staff was nice. Plenty of parking. Definitely try it!“

“We couldn’t have been more thrilled with Rollatini Catering for our wedding! From start to finish, Victor and his team went above and beyond. They made the entire process—from the tasting to the big day—seamless and stress-free. Their kindness, attentiveness, and fun-loving attitude made us feel truly taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks were fantastic all night long. What really stood out to us was how accommodating and responsive they were. They listened to every detail and were always eager to make sure everything was exactly what we envisioned. The staff even left us a surprise memory: a fun group photo from the 360 photo booth that we’ll cherish forever. It really showed the spirit and dedication of their team. Rollatini Catering is top-notch, and we felt truly spoiled by their incredible service. If you’re looking for a caterer who provides both exceptional food and outstanding service, look no further!“

“We love going to Casalina because of elite staff members like Marsha, Claudia and Reid. They are SO good at their jobs, they treat us like royalty. They’re professional, charming and totally attentive. We feel at home when we’re there. The good food goes without saying, but if it were not for these incredible people we would go somewhere else.“

“Outstanding Italian food and wonderful service! Ask for John!“

“They raise the level of dining out to an art. The food is extraordinary. Service is excellent, friendly, not stiff in the slightest. It's like you've been invited into the home of someone with the best wine cellar in FL.“

“Great service and the BEST Pizza and Great Wine!!“

“We frequent this restaurant because it is simply excellent. The food is incredible and the staff goes above and beyond. We held a private party at the restaurant last night for a celebration of life with 40 people. Most of the people had never gone before to the restaurant and just raved about it. They couldn’t have done a better job. I highly suggest trying this restaurant out if you haven’t gone.“

“i absolutely love the pizza and garlic rolls here!! it’s all so fresh and full of flavor and the garlic rolls have real fresh garlic on them and it’s just absolutely delicious!! they also have lots of pasta and salad options and i definitely recommend the cesar salad it’s so yummy!!“

“I can happily say, my grown children and I have been enjoying Fiorella’s delicious food for over ten years. We have eaten over a hundred meals and have never had a disappointing dining experience. Every time my children come into town, we are always going to have at least one memorable lacto-vegetarian dinner.“

“The food was mostly good. I had the Branzino which was excellent. My husband had the pork, which was average. We tried the Calamari appetizer special which was a little too dark but tasty. The wine list had some good options, but it was extremely over priced. Service was good, but the lacked a little communication between the waitstaff. The atmosphere was very lively which I normally love, but we had to sit outside because it was just too loud inside. The acoustics are horrible. You literally have to scream at each other to speak because of the bad acoustics a very loud music so if I had to dine indoors I would have lost my mind. Overall, sitting outside was a good experience.“

“Pizza & Ceasar Salad was Amazing“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“I was there on Saturday with a large group and the food and service were excellent. Our server Jackie was the best!!! I will definitely be back 😊“

“The Margherita pizza is off the charts here. Better than any I have had in NY or NJ“

“Fantastic lunch!! Thanks!“

“Buon Appetito! “Savior the Flavor”. Campi most definitely lived up to the hype. We heard so much about the new restaurant around the way at the Ray Hotel in Pineapple Grove, downtown Delray, so we had to check it out and see what all of the fuss was about. Upon entering the chic, upscale, and aesthetically appealing establishment, we were greeted at the door by two extremely friendly and personable hostesses who immediately sat us at our table. Luckily we had the good fortune of meeting Luca, one of the GM’s, as we made our way to our seat, He graciously welcomed us with a round of sparkling Rose champagne. That set the tone and mood for the evening. A mini charcuterie board consisting of italian salami, chunks of freshly cut parmesan cheese, and an assortment of olives was served along with a basket of freshly baked, hot, bread. I highly recommend dipping the bread and other items in the flavorful olive oil. Our waiter Sebastian was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the menu and made a few recommendations that were home-runs! We started with the caesar salad which was one of the best I’ve had in a while. The lettuce was cool and crisp with the perfect hint of anchovies topped with the right amount of freshly shaved parmesiana cheese. Oh and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the sweet roasted mini tomatoes which were the perfect complement. Next up we had their lasagna which is the talk of the town. It was served as pinwheels, which was unique, and the homestyle sauce, meat, and other ingredients were so flavorful. It did not disappoint. We took a few minutes to digest and then it was time for the main courses. My wife ordered the pistachio crusted salmon with pesto and our guest JB and I shared the chicken parmesan and short rib agnolotti with fresh horseradish and crispy garlic. Each and every entree was perfectly prepared and presented, and they even split the portions for us. The showstopper was definitely the agnolotti!! After dipping multiple pieces of bread in the various sauces, I finally had to wave the white napkin and surrender. Unfortunately, we had zero room for desert but promised to indulge during our next visit. We will definitely be back! It was truly a special night at this exceptional, fairly new, player to the Delray scene. Lastly, Campi certainly lived up to the reputation of its family restaurant, Campagnola (on the Upper wast side of Manhattan). We cant wait for our next meal at Campi!! RobandegEats rates Campi (4.5)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5“

“Every time I go, the meal is amazing from start to finish. From the bread and the appetizers to the main course and the desserts. It is very rare to find a restaurant that is consistently good and has great service. It’s family owned and operated and you can tell.! Beautiful decor as well - this is definitely a hidden treasure in Boynton Beach and there is nothing else like it anywhere in the area“

“The food is great. I love it!!!“

“Tramonti is simply one of the best restaurants in Delray Beach. Exceptional Italian food, wonderful service, and genuine hospitality make every visit special. Consistently outstanding and forever one of my favorites. Thank you for the countless exceptional experiences that keep me, my family, and friends coming back!“

“I’ve eaten here twice. Great. Here’s the thing about less than impressive reviews: if there’s one or two that are not great, out of 50, I don’t give them credence. No one or service is perfect for everyone all the time. Like all us, right?“

“Just love this place! Came here for the first time a few weeks ago with a friend and enjoyed a late lunch again today with my husband. You’re welcomed with open arms from the moment you walk in, just sweet, friendly, warm people! Now the pizza, on a whole different level from pizza we have had, and we have had many. They make it just as requested, and we like thin and well done. Freshest ingredients are used and it shows in the flavor! Will be back and back again! Thank you so much for putting your all into this pizza place!!!“

“My husband and I really enjoyed everything! We tried the Honey Hot Pizza and it was sooo good—the sweet and spicy combination was on point! 🍕🔥

And that Italian ice?! Whew! 😋 I got 2 scoops—Blueberry and Strawberry Lemonade together, and that combination was FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥 So refreshing and full of flavor.

We definitely enjoyed our experience and will be back! ❤“

“Lunch 'specials' are good, fast and a great value. Our "Take Out" Pizza is consistently excellent. A very convenient neighborhood restaurant with good food, a friendly environment and very reasonable prices.“

“Manicotti was delicious. house salad dressing is the best!“

“been customer's of Rudi's pizza for years! has brooklyn water dough that makes a NY style crust ..delicious! Tony adds his special touch. the linguine w clam sauce is outrageous..and plenty of tiny clams..so is stuffed shells..Rudi's marinara has a bit of sweetness and tops all his dishes with flavor. my favorite house salad comes with the best balsamic house dressing I've ever tasted. and the staff, Derick, Owen and Jasmine are always polite, attentive and accommodating. Kudos all around! 5+ ☆☆☆☆☆☆“

“Been here many years and never ate there thought it was just a senior place,with cranky adults,even though i am a senior i usually don't go to that type of restaurant,,last week we ordered for delivery at avellinos,the food was great i enjoyed it,eggplant Parmigiano, and my husband had chicken marsala,and they offer your choice of side dishes,they were also very good,the delivery was asap aka delivery dudes,was prompt abd food was very hot,so all in all had a very good experience on all levels“

“I happened upon this restaurant when looking for Italian food for dinner. The woman serving us was lovely. She was very personable and made my children feel right at home. We were lucky with getting a table without a reservation. Next time, I will definitely call ahead to reserve. We all had pasta dishes and they were flavorful and perfectly cooked. My children loved the penne caprese and I thoroughly enjoyed the cannelloni rossini. The chocolate gelato was delicious and my kids could have licked the bowl! The atmosphere was great- relaxed lighting, quaint dining area, and the tables were nicely laid out.“

“Eataly in West Palm beach Florida is a very nice place to visit. We sat at the bar to dine and had exceptional service from Ivanna. She is very knowledgeable and offered different options to pair together. The pasta and pizza had great flavor. Make a fun day or evening of it. Add a dessert and a glass of wine.“

“Their Pasta Fagiolo soup is delicious. You get that with a salad for $7 and it fills you up. What a deal!“

“We found Mom’s by accident a few years ago We forgot where we were at the time, however we kept trying to find our way back. We were at Sylvester Cancer Center in Deerfield and had a conversation with a couple from out of state. They said they had the best breakfast and would be going back until they leave to go home. We asked and once they described Mom’s Kitchen we knew we were back. Now six months later we are there probably 3 nights a week for dinner. Missing the diner style home cooking restaurants. We drive from Boca…..it’s so worth it. The food, the service the atmosphere. Wow!“

“We have visited Renato's numerous times while in Palm Beach. Situated close to Worth Ave, Renato's provides a selection of excellent Italian cuisine, featuring both pasta and seafood dishes. You can choose to sit at a table either indoors or outdoors. It is advisable to make a reservation, as it tends to get quite busy. The ambiance resembles that of an alfresco dining experience.“

“It's Olive Garden, it's not great, but it's good. We ordered the toasted ravioli as an appetizer, and those are amazing. We ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, and the endless salad, bread sticks, and soup. The soups were ok, the bread sticks are nice, but the salad always wins. The spaghetti and meat sauce was not that good. The sauce didn't have mich flavor amd they didn't give you enough. Bit, the meatballs are good. Next time I'll just order the meatballs parmegiana.“

“Dined at Rose's last night,,what an absolute delight,,now in my top 2 Italian restaurants between Boca and Delray !!! Am I am very selective“
