The owner sometimes surprises guests with a complimentary dish, adding a special touch to the experience. Reservations are recommended, especially during busy seasons, as the restaurant can get crowded and tables turn quickly. The staff, including waiters like Jose, provide friendly and efficient service. The vibe is energetic, with loud music and lively conversations, creating a fun, authentic Italian setting. Guests enjoy classic dishes like fried baby meatballs, chicken parm, ravioli with Sunday sauce and long hot, and veal parm with hot and sweet peppers, all prepared perfectly. The restaurant’s atmosphere is lively, and the service is consistently praised, with Jose often highlighted for his fantastic service. Many visitors have been dining here for almost 20 years and find that food and staff never disappoint. The owner, Steve, is a familiar and welcoming presence, adding to the friendly environment. The desserts, such as cannoli and pistachio cake, are highly praised. Overall, Cafe Martorano is recognized as one of the best Italian restaurants in South Florida, rivaling those in NY/NJ, and is known for its great taste, quality, and fun while maintaining a classy feel.
