It has been many years since we went there The service was excellent and we ordered the frittatas, Dave had the Sombrero Frittata with potato salad and the sour dough bread. I had the Nordic Smoked Salmon Frittata with potato salad and sour dough bread too. Both frittatas were cooked perfectly with veggies and herbs. I had black coffee too. It was one of the nicest breakfasts that we had in a long time. The price was quite high $56 with a tip. The quality and the service were worth it!

My husband and I just had breakfast here, and unfortunately it was one of the worst breakfasts…read morewe've ever had. I used to come to this restaurant years ago and would rave about the food, so this experience was really disappointing. I do want to say the service was very good, our waitress was very sweet and attentive, and I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the service. However, both my meal and my husband's meal were awful, especially for the price we paid. The quality just was not worth it. Maybe it was just the two meals we ordered, I'm not sure, but if this had been my first time visiting, I would never return. I much prefer writing positive reviews over negative ones, but I felt people should know about our experience. Sadly, after this visit, we will not be coming back.

This is my first time to a Brazilian Bakery! I had zero expectation and just explore this bakery…read morewith an open mind! We were attracted by the colorful signs and their outside tables and plants in front of their store front! As we open the door, several well-placed Bolo de Mandioca and other sweet breads were on the stand and greeting us! Nice! Green palms or vegetation were painted on the wall with good number of tables. The tables were spotless clean! The young lady behind the display cases were smiling and friendly! Hey, we got the right place! The bakery appeared to be family owned! With my limited Brazilian knowledge, I know what coxinha, kibe and brigadeiro are but what the hell is Camafeu de Nozes or Cocada Cremosa. With Translate in my phone, I quickly discover Camafeu de Nozes (Walnet cameo) and Cocada Cremosa (Creamy Coconut Candy). I loaded my order with total 12 pieces of Coxinha, Kibe, Brigadeiro, Beijinho, Pao de Queijo (cheese bread), and one more. We have them as lunch and snack! They are simply amazing and savory! The Coxinha is best Coxinha I had, I think it is Coxinha com Catupiry (Coxinha with Catupiry cream)! My wife loves that Beijinho and my favorite is Brigadeiro for dessert! There are sweet breads, sandwiches, and other Brazilian items with juices, coffees and drinks available. We will try them on our subsequent visits. This is a good way and good place to experience Brazilian culture without flying down to San Paulo! Promise made, soon, I'll write a review how the Bolo Mandioca taste likes!

I didn't give a 5 because it was hard communicating with the employees every time I go there. I think they don't speak English but since I'm bilingual she kinda understood Spanish but I believe Brazilian language is more Portuguese if I'm not mistaken? Anyhow I used sign language that always works too lol I just pointed to what I wanted. They have a nice selection of pastries and hot coffee. I did want an iced coffee, but they didn't have. It's ok I still support local small business. Thank you guys anyhow for the friendly service!

One of my favorite places to tour in Mexico is their local bakeries. I would take samples of their…read morepan dulce. When I saw Aroma Bakery and Ice Cream, I just wondered in and took a few samples. Aroma Bakery is not a big bakery and only has a few tables for coffee, ice cream, snacks and pan dulce. Today, I did not touch the crusty Bolillo or "Pan Frances", churro and concha. I picked up a cemita (sesame encrusted bun), Orejas or Palmiers (Elephant ear), Beso (Kiss), puerquitos (pig-shaped Mexican cookies) and a forgotten cookie to go. The cemita has a texture similar to brioche. I normally made a sandwich with this bread but today, it was just put in a microwave oven for 15 seconds and enjoyed the slightly sweet, airy, and golden-sesame crusted bun. Wife loves her Orejas or Palmiers. It is puffy, and crunchy. The Beso or Kiss is a dome shaped dough joined with a jam or jelly and rolled with fine shredded coconut. It is little on the hard side. I like the puerquitos or piggies. It is pig-shaped cookies with ingredients like flour, eggs, piloncillo, cinnamon, baking powder and an egg wash for its shiny finish. Please note that pilocillo is a unrefined sugar from boiling the sugarcane juices. Puegquitos has a soft, chewy texture with a touch of cinnamon and honey, making them all together a not-too-sweet treat to enjoy all day. This is my first visit. The staff is very friendly. He informed me they made Rosca del Reyes (King's bread) in early January. Wow, I'm sure we'll return for more!

As someone who appreciates authentic Italian, not Italian American food (Olive Garden etc) this…read moreplace is phenomenal. I stumbled upon it when looking for pizza for a little family get together. The caprese was fresh and delicious, high quality ingredients. The pizza was amazing as well, fresh clean high quality ingredients. Owners are from Italy and you can tell that they take pride in the food they serve. Only mediocre/bad reviews for this place I can imagine are coming from people who wouldn't know authentic Italian food if it slapped them in the face.

What a wonderful establishment to visit for our 35th anniversary…read more The food was excellent, service like family and special attention like we were VIP's. Having only been open for 4 months, they have nailed it. We were so happy we chose this place. We went with the gnocchi with oil, garlic and cheese, fettuccine ragu bolognese and meatballs appetizer. As declared in previous reviews the meatballs were tender , tasty and the sauce spectacular. I've always loved a good gnocchi, but this was the best ever. My beautiful bride loved the fettuccini ragu bolognese, I tried it and found the noodles to be firm, but she told me it is dead on authentic as experienced in Italy. I highly recommend Trattoria Alvito. I guarantee you'll like it or I'll eat it for you .

This place is the heart of Matlacha. It's a central meeting place for locals, visitors and…read moresnowbirds alike. Staff is incredibly kind, compassionate and courteous. The food is fun, because there's a little something for everyone. Yet the staff is kind, thoughtful and relaxed enough to make accommodations. That's rare these days. Parking may be tight, but it would be silly to rely on your car in Matlacha. There is a gorgeous park nearby with a large pier and plenty of parking. From there, the Perfect Cup is a short walk and ideal mental reset to transport anyone that visits Matlacha into the prophetic and elusive "Island Time." The bubbly and enlivening environment is enough to recharge you for a play day in Matlacha. It is inspiring to see how much this small community of even smaller business manage to survive and thrive all along a 1000' strip of delightfully walkable roadway. I encourage everyone to take advantage of the honor and privilege it is to walk through the doors of places still standing in Matlacha.

I want to share my deep disappointment regarding my experience at your restaurant. We waited over…read morean hour to be seated, only to watch multiple parties of two walk in and be seated within 15 minutes, while our party of three was ignored. In my opinion , a well-managed restaurant would offer to accommodate a party at a smaller table or provide updates to improve the situation. Furthermore, my husband is handicapped, and while we were not seeking special treatment or free items, it was upsetting to see our place in line disregarded so blatantly while other tables were prioritized ahead of us. While the food was acceptable, it did not justify the long wait or the unfair seating system. I hope you take this feedback seriously to ensure other guests do not have a similar experience. I won't recommend anyone to this restaurant and one of your signs says what happens here we talk all week! I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT WHAT HAPPENED THERE WE WILL TALK ABOUT IT FOR A LONG TIME, AND MANY OTHERS WILL READ IT!!!
