We didn't have a reservation, and they had us #2 for bar seating. Cane was our bartender and had our wine to us in less than 2 minutes of asking. We waited about 20 min when a large party left and they were able to offer us a table, restricting us to an 1 and half. That was plenty of time. It was just me and my husband. We started with the arancini balls and they were great. Our server, Shamar was amazing and recommended the calamari and soppressata pizza with hot honey. Everything was AMAZING!

My original goal was another Italian restaurant, but there was no parking. So we ended up here and…read moreI couldn't be happier. There was ample parking. As I walked up to the door I started having second thoughts. The dining room was set up for fine dining, but there was one other table. The host greeted us warmly and we were seated promptly. Sergio removed the extra place settings, a sign of a good restaurant. He offered us either still or sparkling water as we received our menus. The price points were very affordable. You could easily find these meals for twice the price elsewhere. We started with the mini meatballs. Scrumptious! You must try them. The bread, oil and herbs presentation was impressive and tasted great. I ordered the Penne Bolognese and my guest ordered the crab ravioli. The Bolognese tasted like it took all day to cook. So good, and piping hot. The pasta was perfectly al dente. Sergio brought us a complimentary vegetable soup to sample, and the we were offered dessert. I chose the Lemon cake, and my guest tried the cheesecake. Both exceptional. Then were given a complimentary amaretto shot after dessert. Sergio was the best server I could remember I. A long time. This restaurant should be full every night, folks. I hope that you'll check it out!

While visiting the Fort Lauderdale area to see my girlfriend, she insisted on taking me to her…read morefavorite Italian restaurant. She's lived here her entire life and is very particular about where she eats. She says a lot of her longtime favorite restaurants have really gone downhill over the years, so I was excited to try one that has remained consistently good. The restaurant is located in a shopping plaza, which is pretty common in South Florida. Once you walk inside, though, you forget you're in a plaza. It's beautifully decorated with a warm European feel that makes it inviting and cozy. It's a good-sized restaurant, and my girlfriend mentioned it's usually packed. Since it's currently the slower season, it wasn't as busy, which is a little sad to see, but hopefully business picks back up when the snowbirds return. We were seated right away, and our waiter was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. The menu had an incredible selection of authentic Italian dishes, along with several specials listed on the board that all sounded amazing. We decided to share the meatballs and the Bolognese, and that ended up being the perfect choice. I also ordered a glass of Pinot Grigio. At $15 a glass, I definitely cringed a little because I always think about how the whole bottle probably costs around $20, and one glass is never enough! They also brought out fresh bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Let's just say I ate far more bread than I planned because there was absolutely no way I was letting any of that incredible meat sauce from the Bolognese--or the rich sauce from the meatballs--go to waste. The food was absolutely spectacular. I honestly can't say enough about how delicious everything was. Every bite tasted homemade and full of flavor. For dessert, I skipped the sweets and ordered an espresso martini instead. They did a fantastic job. The last upscale restaurant I visited in West Palm Beach served one of the worst espresso martinis I've ever had, proving that just because a restaurant is expensive or considered "high-end" doesn't automatically mean the quality is there. This restaurant absolutely delivered on both the food and the cocktails. Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience. This is definitely a restaurant I'll be coming back to whenever I'm in the Fort Lauderdale area, and I can certainly see why it's one of my girlfriend's favorites.

There were a few "bite" food items, cocktails and wines on their HH menu. They really mean "bite size" when they say bites because the portion sizes were small (of course, they were items from the HH menu). The Limoncello Martini was delicious with just the perfect amount of sourness! In addition to the HH bites, we ordered the Pepperoni pizza and Spaghetti Carbonara. All of the food was delicious and tasty. Service was good, but a little slow as the bartenders were busy. Overall, a good dining experience at a restaurant with good food!

This is not your typical Chicago Italian style restaurant. The menu is varied and I was able to find something to order. I am very picky about the Italian food I eat. The Angelo salad was delicious. For my entree, the fettuccine bolognese was just not to my taste. My husband had the Caesar salad which he enjoyed. The sauce on the ravioli was different and, again, not to my taste. There was some confusion on the dessert we ordered, but the correction was quickly made. The restaurant is large but the parking lot is a nightmare. Fortunately we were in an Uber but while waiting to be picked up after we had eaten ~ crazy busy with limited parking spaces. I tried for months to make reservations so be aware you can finally make a reservation about 6 weeks in advance. The restaurant is busy and even offers pick up service and they do have valet parking. I would return and hope they could make a simple butter sauce for my pasta.

A storefront restaurant specializing in Sicilian cuisine. My wife ordered the Eggplant Polpette , Sicilian style vegetarian polpette, eggplant, egg, bread pecorino, parmigiano, and caciocavallo cheese. It was an appetizer priced at $ 24. She thought it was just ok. They are known for homemade pasta so I tried the Tagliolini alla Scoglio, Homemade Tagliolini with Mussels, clams, shrimp, calamari, parsley, splash of white wine, garlic and e.v.o. oil. This the white sauce version but I opted for the red sauce version. It was very good but priced at $45.

The staff worked as a team and the servers were on point. Vincent was delightfully funny. The calamari app and the main meals were perfectly cooked and chef Anthony brought them to our table. He enjoys getting to know his customers when time allows. I highly recommend the tiramisu.

Inside is very dim it and a little loud but very sexy and elegant ambience. I would say that it is closer to fine dining. Here we always order the chicken Parm, which is HUGE and shareable, as well as some alla vodka pasta. DAISY, our server really made this experience for us! She was so friendly and bubbly, giving great recommendations at having some real genuine human conversation. I enjoyed this small chitchats when she came to visit our table. For this particular occasion, we were dining in for a small birthday celebration a party of two - at the end we received a complementary tiramisu dessert. Everything was YUMM If you can't find street/meter to parking around the surrounding area, they also offer valet that is slightly discounted if you dine in at the restaurant.
