“This is your 5 star with classic, real family ties, food. The service is always above what you would expect. You still see chef Angelo. Menu items have family roots. Fresh is always key but the food is hand selected. Pistachios from certain regions. Pork chops of a specific type. Prosciutto aged 24 months. Top notch! I’ve been dining here for over 15 years and have never had a bad experience.“

“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.“

“Pizza and garlic rolls are delicious, great atmosphere.“

“From the moment I stepped into Cucina Italiana, I knew I was in for a treat. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between elegance and comfort, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Our server was both knowledgeable and attentive, recommending the perfect pairings for our meal. To start, the bruschetta was a symphony of flavors, with the freshest tomatoes and just the right hint of garlic. The main course, homemade fettuccine alfredo, was nothing short of spectacular, showcasing the chef’s expertise with perfectly cooked pasta and a creamy, rich sauce that was flavorful yet not overwhelming. What truly set Cucina Italiana apart was the attention to detail. From the perfectly timed courses to the subtle yet inviting decor, every aspect of our meal was thoughtfully curated. As for dessert, the tiramisu was a delightful end to our meal. It was airy, with just the right touch of espresso, leaving us thoroughly satisfied yet longing for our next visit. In a nutshell, Cucina Italiana is not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey that I would recommend to anyone seeking an exceptional Italian dining experience in Dania Beach. It’s a must-visit for locals and tourists alike. Bravo! Feel free to adjust this review to better match your personal experience at the restaurant!“

“Always check to see if Buca is at whatever city we are visiting, never disappointed“

“Don’t sleep on the Lunch Menu… those paninis are mind blowing. Everything from the fluffy, crispy bread, amazing fillings, and condiments blend together perfectly. It’s quieter and brighter at lunch, so a completely different vibe. Highly recommend!! Hubby loves short rib panini and I crave spicy vodka chicken or ya sista’s cutlet.“

“Rarely review. But had the best pasta dish I've ever eaten - rigatoni a la Norma - at this intimate, quiet gem near (but just far enough) from Las Olas. The owner even explained quality ingredients, how to make it at home and report back, though quite sure it won't taste this good. Excellent wines. Try any of their specials (the Norma) but also the lasagna Bolognese - the owners' regional specialty - or the Vongole, pizzas. And desserts - panna cottas and tiramisu. All made fresh 🙏“

“When we got stranded without baggage and only the gym clothes on our back for a night, these folks welcomed us in with open arms when no other restaurant in the area would because we didn’t meet their dress code. Food was wonderful as was the staff. Thanks y’all!“

“Delicious food and attentive service.“

“The food is amazing and incredibly well done. Portions are very generous for a very reasonable price, but the service was the absolute clencher for me. Our server was the absolute best and so friendly & knowledgeable of the menu. She made it a pleasure to be there and I couldn’t get enough of the amazing food from the starters to desert. Come here and enjoy an amazing meal with the absolute best service and atmosphere.“

“This is the best Italian cuisine in Broward County and the state of Florida for that matter!“

“Love the food and ambience.“

“As a local of 40 years with 27 years hospitality experience, Livello’s is hands down the best Coral Springs has seen! Chef Bruno is a creative genius when his meticulous and well crafted menu. Your taste buds are in for quite an experience!“

“Everything tastes delicious! From the bread, the salads, the pastas, the steaks, the fish and desserts! Served with great attention! I love it and wished they had a restaurant downtown Fort Lauderdale!“

“We had lunch at Cucina Alfresco this week and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the portions were very generous. The garlic rolls were some of the best we ever had and the pizza was perfectly prepared. We finished the meal with a wonderful homemade Tiramisu. I highly recommend Cucina Alfresco. You won’t be disappointed!“

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

“My husband and I are always in the lookout for good value lunch specials in our area and we read about this place on Facebook, so we decided to try it - so glad we did! The food was fantastic, ingredients tasted SO good and fresh, wonderful service and we even got to meet and chat with Pablo, the owner. Can't wait to go back to try the pizza and pasta options as well - such a hidden gem! Photo: baby stromboli.“

“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!“

“Awesome people great food!! They really care that both you get good service and good food!! Love them!!! 5 stars ⭐️“

“I recently visited Elvis Italian Grill and was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional dining experience. The restaurant has maintained its reputation for providing high-quality food, meticulous attention to detail, and professional service.
The chef personally greeted each guest, adding a personal touch to the dining experience. Elvis Italian Grill has become my preferred destination for Italian cuisine in this area. The freshness of the ingredients and the overall quality of the dishes are truly exceptional.“

“Delicious food, great atmosphere, and wonderful service. My family and I love this place.“

“Unbelievably great food and service My Wife hosted my 70-birthday dinner at Capriccio's and all I can say was it was one of the most enjoyable dinner experiences I have had in a very long time. Capriccio’s is a warm, friendly place, with fabulous food and an unsurpassed wait staff, led by William. Having my family and friends celebrate this occasion with me will be a wonderful memory. Everyone attending could not stop raving about the food. Needless to say, Capriccio’s has some new customers!“

“Charming place with amazing food. Enjoyed the whole atmosphere. Great service. Would definitely recommend. Went out of their way to make my wife's dish just the way she wanted, even though it was not on the menu. Top notch...we will be back.“

“All 3 of us had amazing meals, awesome dessert, and superb service. The menu had such great sounding options that it was difficult to choose. One person had received suggestions from friends, which we then followed. We were rewarded with delightfully flavored and presented meals that satisfied us and pleased us from first bite to last. It is not common that I or my meal mates repeat such comments, but we did. We all decided a return visit is justified...actually, MULTIPLE return visits! This restaurant is truly a KEEPER. Check it out!

The parking was a bit of a challenge, but they have valet parking. We got lucky and had someone back out just as we arrived.

The atmosphere is very comfortable and upscale. It fit well with the food and service.“

“Used to be an Antonio’s in Weston that had an incredible Stromboli. Thinking maybe these are the same owners because I got the Stromboli and it was just like back in the day - the best and amazingly delicious. The sauce that came with it was also perfect. Can’t wait to get it again!“

“best Italian food I have ever had I got the baked Lasangna with meat sauce it was to die for and excellent rolls with garlic sauce highly recommend“

“Fantastic Food and cleanliness! The service and food here is excellent and I highly recommend the pizza, sub sandwiches, and their tiramisu!“

“Everything they make is wonderful! From the desserts to sauces, absolutely authentic.“

“Take out order was a medium pepperoni pizza, garlic knots and eggplant parmigiana. My favorite was the garlic knots, very soft and garlicky. The pizza crust was not too thick or thin. The eggplant was the least favorite as I felt it was too bland and too breaded. The pasta that came with it was good. I’ll definitely be getting my pizza & garlic knots moving forward.“

“Great service. Quality food.“
