    Florentine Benedict, with hollandaise in the side
    Lesley F.

    Wonderful breakfast! After bike ride we landed here.. they have a nice courtyard to dine al fresco. The menu was big and had many things to choose from. I had the Benedict Florentine and it was delicious. Our server weds very friendly and kept our water and coffee filled. Located in Harbor Bay Plaza. It is Renatos in the evening.

    This was supposed to be a la vodka. As you can see there is next to no sauce. Do better, josephines.

    This was supposed to be a la vodka. As you can see there is next to no sauce. Do better, Josephines. Also, they forgot my bread. Incredibly disappointed. I feel jipped.

    Great option for indoor or outdoor dining in Sewall's Point. My group of friends had a great breakfast and all of us were very pleased with our meals. Our choices ranged from skillets to oatmeal. Service was attentive but a little slow. We found the food worth the wait.

    What a wonderful experience. Service was attentive and professional. The highlight of the evening was the incredible Veal dishes. Highly recommended!

    The food here is unbelievable. Food is to die for

    Great selection of quality salads that I had to go. Nice ambiance and good service. Small handful of craft drafts. The best part is they have the Lava Rock cooking set that they break out on Saturday nights. Looking forward to that experience. More to come.

    Delicious!

    The food was fine but the service was painfully slow. If you don't have a couple of hours for a sandwich then this is not your place.

    Fantini's Italian Restaurant is an absolute gem and a must-visit for anyone who truly appreciates…read moreauthentic Connecticut-style pizza and classic Italian done right. The pizza is phenomenal--perfectly crisp, thin crust with that unmistakable New Haven-style bite, top-quality ingredients, and incredible flavor in every slice. This is the real deal, not a knockoff. If you know Connecticut-style pizza, you'll recognize immediately that Fantini's nails it. Beyond the food, the atmosphere really sets this place apart. The carriage adds a unique, charming touch that elevates the entire dining experience--comfortable, inviting, and memorable. It's the kind of detail that makes a night out feel special, whether you're there for a casual dinner or a celebration. Service is warm and professional, the menu is rock-solid from start to finish, and everything feels thoughtfully done. Fantini's doesn't just serve food--it delivers an experience. If you love Italian cuisine, great pizza, and a place with character and charm, Fantini's deserves a permanent spot on your go-to list.

    We had such a great experience the first time here that we brought our friends for dinner. I…read morepreviously had veal that was very good, but had heard great things about their pizza. There were four of us, and three ordered different small pies, while one had Shrimp Scampi. Before i go further, i should mention that we had a new server, so there was a general acceptance of the need for patience. That said, we ran out. The Shrimp Scampi came out first, so we encouraged our friend to eat. About 10 minutes later, two pies came out and we were waiting on the third, which never arrived. Several requests were made and the response was that it was working. Well, after about 20-25 additional minutes the manager came over and apopogized. Apparently, the order was never placed. He ended up having it made anyway, and gave it to our frustrated diner to take free of charge. Very disappointing for all involved. I will say that the bartender was awesome snd the place has a great atmosphere, but...
