“from the moment you step into Vitolo you are greeted by a friendly outgoing staff. our server Alejandro was on point, checking in with us to make sure our evening went well. We have been to Vitolo's a few times and as always everything was delicious. My husband and I enjoyed our cocktails and ordered. Alejandro suggested the Caesar salad and it was delicious. We opted to share since the portions are more than enough and had the chicken parmigiana which is pounded thin and absolutely perfect. we decided on the in house Tiramisu to finish out the night. it was superb as was my espresso martini.“

“From the moment we walked into Casa D’ Angelo, we knew we were in for a special lunch. The ambiance of the place promised an authentic Italian dining experience, but it was our server, Eduardo, who elevated our visit into something truly memorable. Eduardo greeted us with a warmth and sincerity that immediately made us feel welcome. His approach to service was personal and attentive, perfectly balancing professionalism with a genuine desire to connect with us. He was patient and thoughtful, offering to give us extra time with the menu while also sharing insights into his own life that added depth to our interaction. The highlight of the meal, without question, was the off-menu special which was home-made pasta prepared using Tito's vodka. As someone who has had their fair share of Italian cuisine, I can confidently say the pasta at Casa D’ Angelo is the best I've *EVER* had. But it wasn’t just the food that made our experience; it was Eduardo’s guidance through the menu, his knowledge of the dishes, and his personal recommendations that truly made our lunch stand out. In summary, Casa D’ Angelo isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey curated by people like Eduardo, who bring flavor not only to the food but to the experience itself. Whether you're a local or just passing through, a visit here promises not just a meal but a story worth remembering.“

“I've been attending the monthly wine pairing dinners at the Pompano Beach location, it is so much fun and very delicious. We've also made a few new friends at these dinners.“

“Anthony’s is simply great! They were able to accommodate us with a last-minute dinner reservation, and as always, the experience did not disappoint. The food was fantastic, and the service was top-notch—Diana in particular was amazing! The staff is consistently attentive and friendly every time we visit. Tonight, we started with the Calamari, Caesar, and house salads. For our mains, we had the Mussels in red sauce, Eggplant Parmigiana (do yourself a favor and ask for it with the Bolognese sauce—absolutely worth it! Thank me later!), and the Mussels & Clams in champagne sauce. We wrapped up with a perfectly done Crème Brûlée for dessert. The drinks are strong, tasty, and always hit the spot. Every dish was delicious, and not a single complaint from anyone in our group—which is rare! We’re already looking forward to returning soon.“

“Here is a review of the restaurant Pasta And... in Margate, Florida: Pasta And... in Margate, Florida is a hidden gem that serves up an exceptional dining experience. As a first-time visitor, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the attentive service. I had the pleasure of dining at Pasta And... while working as the DJ for a wedding being held in their event space. The room was beautifully decorated, creating a lovely atmosphere for the celebration. While I was there to work, the staff went out of their way to make me feel like a VIP guest. The star of the evening was Chef Luigi, who demonstrated his culinary prowess throughout my time at the restaurant. Though I did not know he was the chef at first, he made sure I was well taken care of, offering me a bottle of Pellegrino and various food tastings. When I finally told him to just bring me whatever he recommended, he delivered an off-menu dish of tender, flavorful lamb chops in a delectable sauce, accompanied by fresh, grilled vegetables. The food was truly exceptional - it melted in my mouth and left me craving more. I was amazed that this restaurant, which I had never heard of before, could produce such a high-caliber meal. What really sets Pasta And... apart, though, is the service. Chef Luigi went above and beyond to ensure I felt valued and appreciated, even though I was there solely in a working capacity. His hospitality and the special treatment he provided made me feel like a VIP rather than just a wedding DJ. I look forward to returning to Pasta And... in the future, this time with my karaoke skills in tow so Chef Luigi and I can put on a show together. Based on my experience, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the Margate area looking for exceptional Italian fare and unparalleled customer service.“

“I have been coming here since they opened a hundred years ago. I had to meet my brother who lives in N.E. Ft Lauderdale and he suggested we go there for lunch.

An amazing operation where they have 5 people behind the counter in a production line making the food.

I like the Italian sub which comes in a Small 8" or Large 12" on White or Wheat Bread. Ham, Genoa Salami, and Cappicola, choice of cheese plus all the fixings.
Great“

“We had Chicken San Marco and Snapper Franchese which were both excellent. Our server was fast, effiicient and very friendly: altogether a wonderful experience. We will be back with company.“

“Me and my family came to celebrate my birthday a couple weeks back. The owner, Fabio runs an amazing staff and is very warm and personable always smiling and making you feel like family. This cozy authentic Italian restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide wine list and wonderful desserts. I Highly recommend!“

“Another fantastic meal at Sapido! We started with the bruschetta — beautifully presented and packed with authentic Italian flavors. The gnocchi was spectacular: light, delicate, and full of soul. The service is what truly sets this place apart — warm, friendly, and so genuine, it felt like we were dining in a small trattoria in Italy. It's an intimate, unpretentious spot where we always feel like part of the family. Sapido is everything we look for in an authentic Italian restaurant — a rare and special find in Fort Lauderdale!“

“Honestly, the best little Italian spot in Oakland Park.
The lunch specials are a great deal, the pizza is perfectly crispy, and the bolognese tastes just like it should… rich, hearty, and comforting.

Definitely give it a try! You can’t go wrong with the pastas or the pizza.“

“Good place! I recommend it to everyone!“

“Love it here always a pleasure“

“The BEST Italian restaurant on Las Olas Boulevard!!“

“We loved La Fuga. It didn't seem like much when we saw it from the outside, but the food and service were excellent. The offering of sliced lemons, limes, oranges, and cucumbers for water was such a great idea. Prices were reasonable for the quality of the food. We don't live in Ft. Lauderdale, but would definitely go back here if we did!“

“So yummy and light .. what a refreshing desert“

“Hands down the best Italian food I have had outside of Italy in a decade. Highly recommended this for locals and travelers, it’s worth the trip 😋“

“Complimeenti! Una vera pizza napoletana, degna della nostra grande tradizione.“

“Just home from my fouth dinner at Mama Mia's with a group of friends down visiting from Rochester NY. Like my first review and my last two dinners (for which I'm remiss for not having reviewed), didn't disappoint. The food cooked Torino style by Mama, delicious, try the meat balls!, and Fredericka, Mama's daughter, and Gerald took great care of us table-side! Such a special new place! The fourth with many more to come!“

“Atendimento excelente, ambiente agradável e pizza igualzinha a do RJ.“

“Excellent food!!! Un restaurante Familiar, la mejor comida Italiana. Las mejores empanadas, golfiados , cachitos ,etc Venezolano“

“The best pasta in Pompano, but don't forget the veal and chicken. We saved a bit of space for desert as well. They bake their own bread and you can tell. They also have gulten free options. Make a reservation be its not as big of secret as you you would think. You will be really happy.“

“This place was an amazing find! The food is excellent! The staff, especially Theresa and Diego, we’re knowledgeable. The portions of food are perfect and prices are fair. I’m excited to bring my friends here for a great authentic Italian experience. One of the chef/owners came to speak to us . The whole atmosphere and vibe is incredible and timeless fun for all ages!“

“Service was very slow. Portions were small and I am not a bog Ester. Prices were very high considering the paltry size of the serving. Desert menu, particularly the pie and Gelato was also very expensive, consiering the tiny size of the serving. Having said all that, the food what little there was. Is very good.“

“My sister and I are here on vacation and tonight was the best food we’ve eaten so far. The service and the food was amazing! Maria the owner is awesome! It was an honor to meet you and your family tonight. See you again soon! The Jersey sisters 🇮🇹😎“

“A group of 4 of us dined at North Italia Ft Lauderdale last night. We all had a wonderful time. We arrived a few minutes ahead of our reservation and were seated immediately. Our server Teanna (I hope the spelling is correct) did a fabulous job, she was personable, knew the menu very well and helped us to navigate the menu. Special thanks to the manager Natalie for taking hospitality to the next level. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and we will be back!“
