The lunch menu has a variety of options from pizza, to pasta, to sandwiches, at a reasonable price. You also get this delicious soft bread and oil to start with. I had a grilled chicken panini with garlic fries and it was delicious. If you like cheese it was a lot on there, just the way I like it. The garlic fries with the dip was really good as well. I was able to eat half and was full. As it was our first time, some staff brought cookies for us to sample. It was a really nice touch and a sweet bonus. They were all really attentive in picking up plates and asking if we needed anything.

It was an easy, comfortable, and enjoyable time and meal. Order at the counter, find your own table, and the food is brought to your table. Our large party chose the outdoor seating with ceiling fans and a nice breeze. While the playlist was loaded with fun and notable songs, our location allowed us easy conversation. My wife and I chose the Vegetariano, a half panini, that also included fries, a cup of soup, or a side salad. Because we didn't state specifically, the sandwich arrived with heaping fries. However, my wife and I enjoyed the grilled veggies on the toasted multi-grain bread, and were satisfied with splitting the generous-sized sandwich. Complimentary light and airy focaccia bread along with an olive oil dipping sauce arrived prior to the entrees, to the surprise and enjoyment of our family. The servers brought out our dishes in quick order and with pleasantness. A children's and lunch menu is available. Look for Daily specials on the menu. Adult drinks include beer, wine and sangria slushy. Desserts served include house-made gelato, cookies, cakes, and pastries. My wife and I will return.

The food is just so delicious, I have loved everything I've ever tried here. I always start with a side Caesar salad. I love their homemade Caesar dressing. Their homemade croutons are addictive. I sometimes ask for extra just because I love crunching into them. Tonight I got the gnocchi alla vodka and added meatballs. Those meatballs are so big, they are a meal in themselves. The vodka sauce is definitely one of my favorites around. So creamy and has a lot of flavor. The gnocchi were tender and I couldn't stop popping them in my mouth. We enjoyed a glass of wine with dinner, which helps complete the Italian atmosphere. Surrounded by good friends, delicious wine and great tasting food, what more could you want?!

As you walk in there's a large bar with a decent amount of seating, and to the right a mix of tables. Take on the limited outdoor seating at your own risk during Florida's storm season. I started with the Sunshine State cocktail. The gin cocktail was a little more lime forward than I prefer, but I'm still a fan! To follow it, I tried the Negroni Bianco. It was on the sweeter side and had a lot of floral flavor. The Bruschette Caprese has so much flavor, I couldn't get place if the tomatoes were marinated, but I loved it! For dinner I couldn't resist the house special, mustard spaghettini. It was creamy, and mustard marinated noodles the perfect balance. As you'd expect with the setting and price point, the service was professional and attentive.

It was nestled right in the downtown of Winer Garden. This felt like such a special place for a date night! The food was delicious! We started off with the bruschetta tomato and it was spot on. I love a classic bruschetta and it's hard to find one without cheese in the US (there were other options with cheese if that's your thing). I was so excited to order it and it did not disappoint. For our main entrees my husband ordered the pasta carbonara and I ordered my favorite pasta bolognese. WOW this is the best pasta bolognese I've found so far in the United States. The flavors brought me back to Tuscany and the pasta made in house was perfect! My husband enjoyed his dish but he is not as big of a fan of the large pieces of pancetta, but that is more of his own personal preference. We ended our meal with decaf espressos and dessert. My husband had the cannoli and I had the tiramisu. It was the best way to end our meal and we enjoyed every last bite. We are excited to come back and try some of the other dishes, the pizzas looked so yummy! Highlight: We had a table right in front of where they make their pasta. It was so cool to see it being made. My husband and I were mesmerized by the process.
