Last night's dinner was another fantastic experience, with the wonderful personality and attentiveness of our server Jenna. Service here has always been fantastic, but she was really outstanding, and the table next to our felt the same way, as it was their first time eating here and asked us our recommendations, etc. Got the picture of the white sangria and it was delicious. Light and fruity. The garlic knots were polished off in minutes, and the pizza was incredible, although I let my husband enjoy the leftovers for breakfast this morning!! My chicken pesto with accompanying veggies was also tasty, and serve as today's lunch. Yum yum yum read more

Had a wonderful lunch today. Our server was Madison. She was friendly, competent and attentive. We ate outdoors and the weather was just right with a light breeze - a treat for late April. We started with mozzarella sticks and garlic knots. Be sure you like garlic if you get the knots. I had the meat lasagna and it was great - a large portion with lots of meat. My wife had a cheeseburger - cooked right - and fries and there was plenty to eat. Our friend had the 10 inch pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms. Very tasty and cooked just right on a thin crust. Only one complaint - no Diet Coke was served, so my wife tried the Pepsi Zero. She did not care for it. read more

Recently checked this place out due to the "gluten free" signage. The staff are friendly and great at alerting the kitchen about food allergies. I usually do not like sitting indoors due to how loud it often is, but the sound level was really nice here, and it is easy to keep a conversation going at the table. The food is delicious too. I was delighted that they had a whole menu for gluten free options that are not just the typical salads that most places offer. I had their gluten free pizza, and was very pleased. Also want to give a shout out to our server, Phil, who was wonderful! Absolutely coming back. read more

We ordered pizza, cheese bread, and wings for delivery. They said it would be about 45 minutes but they had it delivered in less than 30. Food was hot, delicious, and affordable!!! I love this place because I see them support our community all the time and I like to support businesses that are privately owned!! read more

I ordered the linguine with clam sauce, which is one of my favorite italian dishes, and was a little disappointed. The sauce was good but there were a lot of clam shells in the dish with no clams in them. The few clams there were in the dish were very small. I've had this dish elsewhere and I've never seen clamshells with no clams in them. I did not feel the dish was worth the money. read more

Great food. Service was excellent. We were checked on frequently. We had chicken parmigiana, meatball sub, and baked rigatoni. Generous portions and served hot. Will definitely eat here again. read more

I really liked the pizza and the pasta I get, BOLOGNES I think. I hope everything is fresh, it kinda has that systolic or Gordon's taste to some things. I still love it for a night out. Great service and ambiance. read more

This place was recommended by my in-laws, my wife and I went and it was great! We started with the Fried Zucchini Basket which was so good, the right amount of crispy outside and it was hot. I had the Lasagna which was big and good, I do wish it was a bit hotter but that's just a personal preference with most of my food. My wife loved the Chicken Parm which came with spaghetti and was also a nice big portion. Staff was hospitable and made sure to grab dirty dishes quickly. It was a chill vibe inside with tvs around the whole place, overall will visit again! I really want to try the pizza next. read more

We love Ferraro's and the food is always great. We usually get the pizza, it's a fun place to bring the family!

Great outdoor seating. Pretty flowers along fence. Wonderful pizza. Got the chicken cutlet pizza; it had lots of yummy cheese & toppings. Nice staff. I liked the spinach ravioli too with bolognese sauce- the bolognese sauce does have a tiny bit of cream in it. Jessica was our waitress- she was very sweet & helpful. read more

Delicious date night at Ferraro's. Happy hour wine is super affordable! We split the Riggatoni and the pizza. Both were hot and flavorful! Would definitely get the pasta again and try other combos of their pizza. We also love their catering! Great job Ferraro's ! read more

Ferraro's is easily the best Italian spot around. You can tell it's family-owned by the warm, immediate welcome you receive at the door. Between the cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and outstanding food--including great gluten-free options--it never misses. I highly recommend the Nonna Maria pizza! read more

I finally tried Ferraro's Italian Grill, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. You can tell right away when you're in a legit Italian restaurant--and the red sauce here seals the deal. I had the chicken Parmesan and the fettuccine Alfredo. The chicken parm was outstanding: generous portion, perfectly cooked, and smothered in rich, melty cheese (which I love). The red sauce had real depth and flavor--clearly made with care, not rushed or generic. The fettuccine Alfredo is my second measuring stick for Italian food, and this one delivered. Creamy, balanced, and full of flavor without being heavy. Both sauces were dialed in, which is not easy to pull off. This was my first visit, and I was honestly blown away. It feels like a family-owned place where people take pride in what they're serving. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. Bottom line: you don't become a great Italian restaurant by accident, and this is one of the best I've been to. I'll definitely be back. read more

Stopped by and had the lunch special of pizza, salad, and soda and it was excellent. My daughter had the gluten free pizza and gluten free cheesecake and liked it as well. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The pizza is NY style and the ingredients are great. Three TVs playing various things (sports mostly). read more

Got a cauliflower crust pizza to take out and it was delicious. Ordered online and it ready in a timely manner

The younger waitresses are horrible and need training. They sit you at those small tables then serve you with so much food that there is no eating space. They aren't socialable or friendly, they just do what they can to seat you and turn over to the next customer. And don't complain, your service will further decline. The locals highly recommend which is why I went but wow, what a 1 star clef pallet they had. read more

I got a pizza the other day from there and it was terrible. Burnt crust hardly any cheese was like eating cardboard Kris rose read more

Another great meal at Ferraros, casual Italian restaurant on 301 in Parrish . Arrived on a Saturday afternoon at 4:30 ..busy but seated immediately . Ordered the Rigatoni Sinatra which was very good .. sweet Italian sausage in rigatoni in a creamy vodka sauce , wife had the shrimp scampi - shrimp were tender and she loved it , house salad and bread - large portions took half of each entree home . read more

Attentive service and good, simple Italian food. Nothing really stood out to me but I would come back.

Wear an overcoat if eating at this place it's always very cold inside. On the good side the pasta sauces are great especially the Rigatoni Sinatra. However salads leave a lot to be desired. The Caesar is the toughest small parts of the Romain lettuce. Iceberg is in the other salad, very inexpensive. Then the small bread sticks, no butter, Cost cutting. Wine Chardonnay house at $22. Was good but no ice bucket. We will go back but it's not one of our favorites read more

Amazing service and Chicken Parm. Was great! Would go again snd want to try the pizza too, looks delicious!

Love Ferraro's! Ellenton locals favorite. Pizza and pasta options are all great. I would stay away from any pizza that doesn't have red sauce though. The CBR can feel like you're just eating cheese and bread. Alfedo pasta is great and so are the wings! After the hurricane when no one had power Ferraro's was feeding the community at full force. Appreciate all they do! read more

Never again! Ive had frozen pizza that cost less than 10.00 that taste better than this garbage! $25.00 it cost and I picked it up! No delivery fees on this bad boy! This is all in the cost of a two item large pie that was suppose to be well done, but instead it was soggy and as limp as an over cooked noodle and completely tasteless! How they manage to stay in business is something of a miracle. If you look it at pic it reminds you of the joke vomit you seen as a kid! Maybe their pasta and $7 beers keep them a float, but it can't be the pizza! But then again maybe the pizza is saving them as this is maybe, maybe, $2.50 at cost. Hot garbage! read more

Different servers from old crew guess it will take a while to get used to them. Food still good.

While visiting family in Florida over the years, I've passed by Ferraro's quite a few times. Last week, I had the opportunity to stop in for dinner. It's always difficult being from NJ to rate Italian restaurants in other states, you don't want to be overly critical. At the table, 2 of us ordered hot sandwiches and 2 ordered chicken entrees. I had a chicken parmigiana sandwich which was ok at best. My father-in-law had a cheesesteak and thought it was good. The chicken entrees I'm told were ok. If I go back here, I think we'll try the pizza to see how that is. Service was ok, but it did take a while for someone to come to our table to acknowledge us. Prices reasonable. Parking easy. Plenty of TV's with sports on. read more

The portion size and price made the dining experience a very good one Overall Value - very good. read more

First time customer and was happy we found a table on a Sunday afternoon. Our server was quick to take our drink order while we looked over the menu. Appetizers, salads, pizza, pasta, and sandwiches make a menu easy for me to choose, as I could eat something from every group. I settled on the gnocchi with marinara sauce, and shared an order of meatballs with my husband. My food arrived nice and hot, and looked good. Took a little while for our garlic sticks to arrive, but they eventually did. I am a fan of gnocchi, and these were good. The meatballs were exceptionally good and also a good value. read more

Stopped at the Big Red Bus event and took advantage of the free personal pizza offered at this place. The pizza was decent and the choice of crust was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting a cheap, promotional-size serving but the pie was worth the blood-letting. What really impressed was the antipasto salad and the golden Italian dressing suggested by our server. An order of wings rounded out the order. What a great meal to supplement the NFL Divisional Playoff games. My only disappointment was having to ask for the drinks we ordered while we waited for the take-out order. I thought that should have been a given. I will definitely return to try other Italian classics and let you know what I think. read more

Great food service was spectacular and I feel like I was in little Italy super great atmosphere!

One of my favorite restaurants in the Parrish/Ellenton area. We go there about 2 or 3 times a month and we truly enjoy the atmosphere, the service and most of all the food. read more

Service Our server Marissa was very sweet and was present during our time. Other servers often came by and checked on us for refills or to clear plates. Ambiance At 5:30 on a weekend, there were 2-3 tables open. The tables are pretty close together but nothing bothersome. The decor was quaint with unique Italian city scenes. Food Tried garden and cheese pizza. Thin but tasty. Apps were definitely yummy, jalapeño poppers were crisp in the outside and creamy inside. Rice balls were the same but a little bland for my personal taste. Fries were listed as claiming to be the best and man oh man, double frying was delish!! Cute spot we tried and will return to keep supporting small businesses! read more
