    Food and pastries are delicious. I recommend any of their ice creams, especially the berry ones! Quick and friendly staff.

    I stopped in for a few pastries, and the owner was super kind. As he was putting fresh trays of cookies into the display case he showed me the cookies I was looking for with almond. The eclair was phenomenal. The cookies are my favorite as always, and the cannoli was heavenly. The cappuccino was excellent!. I usually don't drink cappuccino past 10 o'clock, only espresso, but why not this one was really good and I had not had breakfast yet This shop has the most authentic Italian pastry in all of. Broward County. They use ingredients imported from Italy. Yes, the prices are a little bit high, but the quality is so worth it! Soon they're opening a Panini shop next-door. I can't wait to come and try it! Now they will have sweet on one side and savory on the other. I'm not embarrassed to say that several times I've driven from Pembroke Pines over here just to get a couple of my favorite cookies. When you're in the area, don't miss out on this amazing shop!

    Wow, the amount of different pastries, pizzas and focaccia here. It was amazing. It smells so beautiful inside. But extremely pricey, I was just passing by on my way to the airport and had heard about this place. Not sure if it's worth the hype and money,but my treats were very tasty. I brought them back on the airplane to share with my daughter back in California. Service was fairly quick, considering there was about 30 of us inside in line. The only thing I didn't like was about 20-30 different pastries were sitting on the counter and you're speaking to the cashier over them, which was pretty gross. Authentic Italian pastries worth giving a try!

    Pan'e Dolci is my absolute must stop every time I'm in Los Olas. Truly an authentic Italian bakery. Everything is so fresh and delicious which makes me crave it even more. Next time I promised myself to taste and review their krafted pizzas

    We returned after 6 years as our cruise ended and we had time to kill. Still tasty but the bathrooms were a disaster zone tho, service perfunctory --where's the Italian joy??

    I hadn't been here in a while and they remodeled. Made it bigger which is great! Their service however is still the same as before. They are slow to help and even though they had more space for seating.

    Pan'e Dolci is an Italian bakery, gelato and coffee shop located in downtown Fort Lauderdale. The space inside looks upscale, from the very shiny floors, to the crystallized chandelier. You will find a huge assortment of house made gelato flavors, cookies and pastries. I got the Stracciatella gelato. Stracciatella is a vanilla based gelato with some very thin layers of dark chocolate throughout. I got the small, their small is very small, most places call this cup a "kiddie" size. To be fair, they really did jam pack my cup. This was $8.00, which was pricey, but to be expected for this part of town. This was very tasty, I especially enjoyed the larger chocolate pieces, they offered a nice crunch, among the very smooth and creamy vanilla. Pan'e Dolci in Fort Lauderdale will deliver some sweetness for your sweet tooth.

    We stopped here to get some sweet treats after a long walk around downtown. The lady behind the counter was working alone and she did not look very happy about tending so many people....any way, we got a fruit tart and the eclair. The tart was nice and well balanced...not too sweet, not too tart. A treat that I would get again. The eclair on the other hand tasted fake and not good at all...it tasted like day-old pastry. Overall an OK bakery, not one that I would go back again..... There are some seating inside and outside.

    I visited this spot with my wife the atmosphere was relaxed, coffee shop vibes. The pastries were good but over priced, nothing extraordinary in my opinion.

    Pan'e Dolci Italian Bakery is on another scale. It's not large, but it is packed with authentic Italian sweets, pastries, coffee, and gelato. I had the Chocolate Cake Gelato and it was fabulous. So creamy, the perfect amount of infused crunchy chocolate cake, and a generous serving for a small. I highly recommend Pan'e Dolci and am certain that you'll enjoy every item that you'll order.

    Pan'e Dolci is is a small chain of Italian bakeries founded in 1998 by Italian born pastry chef Roberto. In addition to this location on Las Olas, they also have a bakery in Lauderdale by the Sea and Oakland Park. Pastry Chef Roberto was born in Viareggio in Tuscany where he learned to make bread, wedding cakes, Italian desserts, cookies, and cakes. He then went on to assist the Master Pastry Chef aboard Princess Line Cruises. After working in Seattle Washington and Las Vegas, Nevada he became the pastry chef at Gran Forno, on Las Olas Blvd before opening his own bakery, Pan'e Dolci. I had previously been to the Lauderdale by the Sea location and loved my visit. I was introduced to this location by a friend who treated me to one of their pignoli cookies, a favorite of mine. This is a very authentic Italian bakery, They have a great selection of gelato, baked goods, sandwiches, and coffee drinks. You order at the counter and then can sit at the one of their tables although this location feels much smaller than Lauderdale by the Sea. I enjoyed popping in for a sweet treat during Christmas on Las Olas. I especially adore their cannoli.

    Everything was mediocre. For the price, I expect quality, if not flavor. The set up leaves much to be desired as well

    Hi everyone and hope you are all gearing up for a great weekend. Last night we decided to head up…read moreto Fort Lauderdale and checkout a family owned Italian / Latin fusion restaurant called Tamarindo Harbor Italian Bar and Grill as we heard a he food was very good. I have to say that we were not disappointed. The food was excellent and the service was spectacular. Upon arrival we were seated very quickly and drinks were arriving within a few minutes. Was a light drinking night for us but happy to report that they do have a full bar so no worries if you want to dabble with the libations. After reviewing the specials with our server we opted for the Arancini Guava Goat Cheese appetizer, Cucumber Soup, the Chicken Parmigiana and the Special Salmon Champagne Risotto. Everything was fresh made to order and delicious. I have to say that you can tell this is a family owned business as the owners came by to make sure everything was to our liking and brought us some free appetizers and a dessert on the house as well. Not expected but was tasty and a nice touch as well. Was not aware but they have another restaurant in Hallandale if you don't want to come to Fort a Lauderdale but either way you should check them out. Atmosphere was very nice as restaurant was jumping and looks like they have live music in certain nights as well which could be a plus. They are located in a small plaza on North Federal Highway and parking should not be a problem either as there was plenty of it. The prices were also very reasonable as well which always helps. So if you find yourself in Hallandale or Fort Lauderdale and have a craving to visit an Italian / Latin fusion restaurant, well I highly recommend you check them out. I don't think you will be disappointed. Enjoy and Bon Appétit mes amis!

Our actual server, however, came across as a bit short and impatient. Live music was a nice touch. My mom loved it. The main complaint from several people in our party of 10 was that the entrée portions were small. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with the size of our party, but it was disappointing. The food itself was good, but I left still feeling hungry.

Coming back years later, it still didn't disappoint! From the incredibly tender tripe to the pasta alla vodka, lemon chicken, and gnocchi with truffle sauce, everything was delicious.

Authentic, flavorful Italian food and a wonderful evening--this time with the approval of another Italian!

It's worth going to - that's the bottom line. Especially if Adelina is your server. She kept order in taking our food/beverage requests and delivering the food. She made sure our glasses stayed full and actually asked everyone (we were 26 people) if everything was good/did we want anything. She had it together and made our experience golden. Before we went, I looked at the pics on Yelp and thought that the nosebleed prices for simple ingredients and the casual decor didn't seem to go together. And the menu is limited. I thought we were about to waste a lotta money on basic dishes - because we don't eat meat or chicken, our choices were even more limited. But we were part of a large group and we were looking forward to seeing our friends there. So we went and had a GREAT TIME! Look, I was wrong to suspect that this was a casual place with casual food. Its the best of both worlds because it is on the casual side but the food is formal as hell. The pinot noir that my husband ordered and the Don Julio 1942 tequila that I ordered over an ice ball were just right. The bread and pasta are made inhouse. I think the desserts are too. The sauces are the secret to the sparkle of each dish. Our friends ordered the zucchini flowers and went nuts dragging the bread in the gorgonzola sauce. I had the Pasta Siciliano, a fat, heavy, fresh ruffled pasta holding a sauce made of caramelized onions cut so thin they were like feathers, roasted and sauteed eggplant, black olives that were still hard, reduced tomato sauce and a dollop of ricotta. Clearly the person who put the cheese on top of the pasta knows I love fresh ricotta. My husband's grilled salmon, done exactly medium as requested, was a bullseye. I'd order that in a second. He said the spinach and roasted potatoes on the plate were 'delicious'. We split a tiramisu, which was a lightly flavored, fresh dessert. After dinner, we were serenaded and encouraged to join, which our table of 26 gladly did. It was a little post-dinner relaxation with dinner-mates. OR a bit loud and disorderly, as if the whole restaurant was a little drunk. I think it was that the food was great (seriously, we already plan to return), the service was freaken stellar and it was worth every penny, as shocking as it sounds. I am a believer now. It was that good.
