12 Best Italian Restaurants in Port Charlotte

“Great service. Good portions. Nice atmosphere!“

“We are regular customers and always loved Donato’s. Tonight’s dinner was disappointing. The fresh mozzarella is our favorite and it is usually spectacular. Tonight, not so much. It obviously was not pulled fresh as usually is the case and what is advertised. It was dense and obviously not fresh. The entrees were fine but my wife’s lobster Ravioli showed up about ten minutes before my veal parm was brought to the table. Overall, dinner was fine but it wasn’t the usual experience we are used to. We will be back because the thought of having to stop dining at Donato’s because of a decline in quality is depressing.“

“We always enjoy Olive Garden. Soup and salad is our go to for lunch. Chicken gnocchi soup did not have any gnocchi and we were finished our salad and breadsticks before the soup made it to our table. That is the only issue that we ever had. The waitress was very apologetic.“

“Went to see damon wyans 600 show. Really funny. Service not enough wait staff. By the time i got all my food at the same time it was cold. Waiter Alex didnt care. He was getting tip. When something isnt right you would think they try to right you. They dont!! Food very good!!“

“The bartender, she is amazing. Friendly and funny while working steady to take care of all her customers. We will be back.“

“Small Italian deli/market inside a gas station here. The NY style pizza is good, and they have premade stromboli and calzones available, but they don't always stock the deli anymore. I used to buy this interesting coffee-flavored soda that they stock, but the last bottle I bought was actually spoiled, so no more of that.“

“We had the Caesar salad, garlic knots and the Little guys pizza. Everything was delicious!! 🍕“

“Great experience, food is always fresh and delicious. Very friendly and professional staff.“

“I have been dissatisfied with every single pizza I've had in Florida until going to Gina's. The crust is amazing! Crispy, flakey with flavor not flimsy or hard, burnt on the edges. Service by Diane was top notch! After 6 years full time in Punta Gorda we have finally found our go to pizza place. We did order bruschetta, zucchini fries and focaccia as our appetizers, again wonderful. All our food was hot and fresh. We will be back often and getting take out for the rest of football season. Very clean restaurant and a full bar.“

“Love the coal fire pizza 🍕“

“We’ve been there twice. Both time the food was outstanding and the service was excellent. I highly recommend trying them out. We love the Melissa Coleman band!“

“Their advertising is very misleading and the food mediocre. The 1/2 price Lasagna was also a 1/2 portion and it was cold in the center. I have been there several times the past couple years and always recommended it to friends. Not anymore.“
