Very good! My party…read moreand I called a couple days in advance to make a reservation for a weekday night. This place has not too many tables so it's best to call if you're really set on going a certain time and day. The inside is cutely decorated. They provided some garlic bread for free. The bread was light and good and the garlic flavor was very mild (which I prefer!) We also got the meatballs as an appetizer which were very good as well. We got the eggplant parm, lasagna, vodka pasta, and the cannelloni. The lasagna was GREAT. The pastas all had a good flavor and portion as well. Inside while we were eating, lots of people came in for takeout or to dine in and it seemed like the employees knew everyone. I thought it was nice that they value their returning customers so much. I will definitely be back here again the next time I'm wanting Italian.

It's…read moresmall, cozy, and family‑owned, and the service makes you feel like you've been coming there for years. I ordered the chicken Parm sandwich, and it was fantastic--crispy, cheesy, and full of flavor. The homemade potato chips were a great surprise too. My girlfriend's penne with vodka sauce was so good she barely looked up from her plate, and my other friends loved the ravioli with the butter‑sage sauce and the spaghetti bolognese. The portions were a good size, and we took home leftovers. The desserts were also to die for. I had a hazelnut cake that was light and delicious, and my girlfriends had the tiramisu. Nothing was left. Plates were cleaned! Overall, it's the kind of place you're so so happy to have nearby in Pembroke Pines. Great food, warm atmosphere, and a team that clearly cares. I'll definitely be going back.

I go to Sicilian Oven in Weston all the time for the chicken parm lunch, which always comes with…read morepasta and a salad. So imagine my surprise when I ordered three chicken parm dinners for the first time and discovered that the dinner version comes with no pasta and no salad -- just the chicken by itself. It makes no sense. This is not a family‑style restaurant; charge a few dollars more and include the pasta like every normal place does. To make things worse, when I placed the order, I said "no sauce on the pasta."So I received 1 order of what looked like 1/4 cup worth. As usual -- because this happens at lunch too -- they took that to mean no sauce on the pasta AND no sauce on the chicken. I have no idea how that keeps getting misinterpreted. Even the staff at lunch can't understand why the kitchen repeatedly makes this mistake. When I called, the young woman who answered was polite and explained the dinner policy. Fine. Then came the manager, Chelsea, who seemed more focused on repeating that policy than addressing the fact that my family's dinner was wrong. Instead of acknowledging the issue -- that we drove there, picked up the food, drove home, and discovered the same mistake they've made countless times -- she doubled down on the pasta explanation like it was some groundbreaking revelation. Her solution? I was "welcome to come back." Because after driving there, picking up the food, driving home, and discovering the same mistake they've made countless times, what I really want is another 20‑minute round trip so they can finally put sauce on chicken parm. Do yourself a favor and go to the Sicilian Oven in Plantation, where the management is competent and the kitchen actually understands basic instructions.

My mother-in-law planned a lunch After my father-in-law's memorial. We were 35 people. They managed…read moreto not have enough seats at our table. So four of us had to sit at a separate table. They brought three, what they call focaccia, but are actually Pizza. Do you think three small pizzas can feed 35 people? Then they brought four salads, which are individual sizes, maybe enough for two people. We didn't get any, there wasn't enough. The calamari was definitely from a frozen bag. If I'm wrong, then they need a new chef. It was cheap and fishy. And we had to order an extra one of those too because they brought two for a table of 35. It took a long time to receive sodas or coffees. Three of us had wine, it came immediately. Thank God. Lunch was a choice of three dishes, and it took about an hour from ordering them to receiving them. The rigatoni with meatballs: I'm almost speechless over the horrifically disgusting, rubbery, loaded with filler, mealy consistency of the meatballs. They were embarrassing. The gnocchi were mushy, over boiled. I think they should sauté them instead of boiling them. Just my opinion. I think the chicken Parm was decent, didn't see people complaining about it. But I didn't have it. Dessert and coffee, then took another interminably long period of time. And the reason I mention this is because there was a party coming in after us. And they couldn't get in, they all had to wait outside in the heat, and all because the service was beyond, ridiculously slow. So I felt badly for them. I do have to say, however, on a good note that the servers were very pleasant, all of them. Which was much appreciated in the midst of the general debacle that this memorial lunch was. In retrospect, It is possible that not enough food was ordered by the host, however, the restaurant in knowing that they were serving 35 people should have informed my mother-in-law that what she ordered wasn't enough food.

I had such a great experience here tonight. The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish…read more We started with the calamari, which was cooked perfectly--light, crispy, and not greasy at all. The garlic rolls were insane... honestly some of the best I've ever had. We shared a house salad, and it was huge--definitely big enough to split. Everything tasted super fresh, and the balsamic dressing was perfectly drizzled and flavorful without being overpowering. For my entrée, I ordered the chicken parmesan with angel hair pasta. I'm pretty picky about marinara sauce (and I'm Italian, so I hold places to a higher standard), but everything was completely on point. The flavors, the sauce, the portion--just really well done. What made the experience even better was the owner coming over to talk to us. She shared details about the food and the restaurant, which made it feel really personal and welcoming. They also host special wine tastings at the end of the month with a curated menu, which I definitely want to come back for. We didn't try the pizza this time, but I already know I'll be back. They offer thin crust and even a deep dish that you can order ahead (about an hour in advance), which sounds amazing. It's a smaller place, but it's cozy, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the service was excellent. I'll definitely be back--and next time I'm saving room for dessert (if I can stop myself from eating all the garlic rolls again).

Curious how other items are on the menu so I may come back.

Our server was pleasant, but once we had our food, he kind of disappeared. He took an especially long time when we were waiting for the check. As for the food, the best part of the meal was the bread. It was warm and delicious and our food runner/bus boy even gave us a fresh loaf to take home. My kids ordered plain pasta, which was fine ($7 each so not too bad). I had the chicken francese with pasta with marinara sauce. The francese sauce was too eggy and not nearly lemony enough. The marinara sauce was really more chunks of tomatoes than actual sauce. I will say the portion size was large. My husband ordered the salmon special with vegetables. The salmon was fine, but the veggies were hard and not at all seasoned. Overall, our experience was okay, but there are so many local Italian restaurants that I wouldn't come back to this one.

The restaurant opens at 4:30 and it's located in the embassy lakes plaza shopping center. It's not very big inside and reservations are highly recommended. I didn't have any reservations so I got lucky when I arrived at 6:00 and was able to get a table for two. Soon after the restaurant started to get very busy. I noticed the huge wine collection they have and how every table had either a a glass of wine or a bottle of wine. Immediately I knew then I had to try a glass. We started with the burrata Siciliana. This was not what we imagined but it was huge and yummy. I was craving soup so we shared the pasta fagioli soup. This tasted exactly how my MIL makes it! And then I got the Pappardelle with salmon and shrimp. I can still taste how delicious this was. Every ingredient was perfectly blended together with a flavorful sauce. It was cooked to perfection. All the meals were incredibly delicious and huge! At first we felt rushed to order, but that changed after we got our appetizer. Our waitress was attentive and checked in on us from time to time. This is such a good restaurant and I can't wait to come back!
