20 Best Italian Restaurants near Miramar Beach

“On our way to Tampa with a storm restoration crew for Hurricane Milton. We finally got in the area after traveling all day from North Mississippi. I got them settled with somewhere to stay but I needed somewhere fast that could take a large order for my entire crew. I needed it to be fast and good! They went above and beyond for us. Not only did they make 15 delicious pizzas quickly, they also gave us a foam cooler full of ice, plates, napkins, and loaded it all up for me. I couldn't thank them enough for all the support! Great people and an amazing experience!!“

“Coming from a large Italian family, I know good Italian food and Tuscany Italian Bistro ranks at the top of the list of Italian restaurants. I had the grouper and scallops risotto and my husband had the chicken fettuccine Alfredo. He said it was the best he ever had. The toasted raviolis were so hot and perfectly fried and the marinara dipping sauce was delicious! I will definitely be back!“

“The pork tenderloin dinner with mash potatoes and broccoli was delicious….the fig sauce made it excellent plus whatever spices you add to the broccoli made it very tasty too. Your happy hour is excellent too. Thanks!“

“Honestly- best pasta I’ve ever had. We had the Alfredo pasta, and it was to die for. Highly recommend!“

“Just had an amazing breakfast !! Beyond delicious and Holly our waitress completed the amazing experience. Thank you for the menu suggestions and friendly kind conversation. Will definitely come back on our next vacation. Yall try the Quich!!“

“Such a beautiful place! The food was delicious and the service was wonderful. We will definitely visit again the next time we are in Destin.“

“We enjoyed lunch so much that 8 of us are going back for dinner! Lunch was Pappardelle De chef which was delicious and a chicken piccata. They were making the bread at lunch for the evening so we did not have any. The Pappardelle would have been so good with fresh bread! We will make up for that tonight. Our server from Equidor, was wonderful. Tonight I will try the Burrata as an appetizer. We were here a year ago and keep coming back!“

“Wonderful meal and wine selection“

“We were there for dinner this past weekend and we were blown away with the pink sauce and a antipasto salad! Great atmosphere and awesome service - the bar served me an espresso Martini that was just perfect! We will be back!“

“We got take-out for 20 people. The food was classic Olive Garden, very good. It was advertised to feed six. The portions were very, very generous.
I tried to order on-line, but the app kept freezing and closing. After the third try, I just called. I should have just called to start with. The lady was helpful, friendly, very sweet, and very informative.
A great experience overall.“

“Best authentic Italian restaurant in Destin . Been there dozens of times and always completely satisfied“

“Best coffee in town, do not leave without visiting!“

“It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed every single thing that was ordered at the table. And I love to eat. All types of foods.

We ordered
- crab salad
- arancini (risotto balls)
- manicotti
- veal chop over spinach

Nothing was overly greasy or heavy with cream like most Italian places. The pasta was definitely handmade… it was so thin and tender it was almost like a crepe. The lump crab was fresh and not fishy at all. The arancini, although fried, was very lightly fried. The veal. Very rare to have a chop at a restaurant. It was well seasoned and had a beautifully seared crust. The spinach, still crunchy, not soggy. And lastly, I’m not a huge fan of marinara sauce typically… but theirs was different. I would definitely eat here again.

The only one “knock” I’d say is that the food does take its time to come out. You order one course at a time. However, when things are made to order and taste this good, it’s worth the wait. Pretend you’re in Europe without a schedule and come hungry.“

“Highlight of our trip! Chef Patrick catered an in home dinner for our family celebrating my parents’ 50th in June 2023 at the house we rented for the week. He worked with me on the menu, accommodating varying adult preferences and making sure our ages 9-15 kids were well fed too. We had so much fun watching him cook and talking that we never actually went to the dining room and instead chose to sit around the kitchen counter. The food was amazing, beautifully presented, and he made sure the kitchen was spotless before he left. Although it was a bit of a splurge, it was worth every penny and we would have Patrick back in a heartbeat!“

“Absolutely deeeelicious chicken parmigiana sandwich - again! Great job Niceville Hungry Howies!“

“First time I trit was Destin Florida amazing now they have here in Phoenix Arizona“

“I've been here many times already, and this is my first review. I usually get the Meat Lovers Pizza because it is amazing. It's perfectly cooked and delicious every time. This time, I got the steak sandwich, and it was pretty good. The steak itself was pretty bland, but the Au Jus helped. My daughter doesn't like their meat sauce very much because it's typically very runny. Overall, it's a great place to eat with great service. I'll definitely be back for more pizza.“

“This is what, from what I recall, what Pizza Hut pan pizza crust used to be like in the 90s.

Pizza was delicious. Crispy on the bottom and soft. So good.

Way better than little Caesar’s Detroit style.

Did not get firm and dull 10 minutes after it being out of the oven.

There is no dine in; however, there’s a large table outside of the establishment.“

“Fantastic food! Would highly recommend their Chicken Alfredo or Pizza/Wings! Excellent customer service!!! Please consider this establishment when out shopping in the Sandestin/Destin area. They are a local small business and that’s what we all need to be supporting, especially during this pandemic. Most all small business owners are struggling and they are truly the backbone of our economy. Please support! ❤️ We will definitely be back! ❤️“

“Great location. Good food!“
