Classic NY style pizza. I ordered pepperoni and sausage and it was very good. The sausage was Italian style. If I lived locally, it would be a regular place for me. read more

Last night we chose Renzo's on Federal Hwy in Boca, and as usual it was terrific. We've been eating at Renzo's for about 15 years There are two dining areas.. The one up front casual and certainly less formal than the back room which is a little more formal, with a piano player, softly lit etc etc etc. Same kitchen for both rooms, same service, and whichever you choose, you can't go wrong Drinks, Caesar salad, lasagna,(might be the best in town). meatballs and spaghetti, veal Francis's.....all terrific. Renzo's is a proven winner, and with season upon us, I'd suggest that you plan ahead. Prices are good, ambience is that of fa nice Italian restaurant, anywhere in Italy Bravo Renzo!!!. read more

Pretty standard fare for a Boca pizzeria and Italian restaurant. We arrived early Saturday evening before the valet arrived. We parked our own car. Parking lot is tight so I understand why they need the valet. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. We didn't have a reservation but got a table. The dining room filled quickly. Found out you could call for a reservation. The piano player started around 6. Our waiter was very friendly, knew the menu, and took great care of us. Started off with a basket of hot garlic knots. We split a salad and they plated it for us. The veal chop was huge and tender. I had the combo pizza. Too full for desert. read more

Disclaimer...came here for a private event so you experience may differ. We were here for an out of towners dinner the night before a wedding. What I experienced was special friends & family catching up in the perfect setting. We love the energetic old world Italian vibe it fit the group we were with. Started off with red and white wine for the table. FYI everything we had was served family style. Fresh salads , New York style pizza ( my current obsession ) and pasta al-a-vodka chicken parmesan and chicken marsala. To finish the night off we had coffee and canolli's with the piano playing in the background. All of the staff treat more like family than patrons. read more

Amazing authentic Sicilian food. Everything was great. You gotta try it! Very fresh food and the owner is super nice.

My family has been going to Renzos for over 20 years both at the current location and the previous location. Their food is always consistent and delicious. last evening we enjoyed the Caesar salad as well as the baked eggplant and veal piccata . The garlic rolls are perfect! The atmosphere is warm and inviting and Renzo seems to always be there in the evening as well as lunch greeting customers and keeping a watchful eye over his restaurant. Thomas at the piano has been there for years with with easy listening music as well as Broadway theatre numbers. With its warm atmosphere and friendly staff, we always feel welcomed. Highly recommended over some of the newer fast paced restaurants in the area. read more

Stopped in for a casual lunch and really enjoyed it. We were seated in the front room. There is a back area reserved for dinner service. The 12-inch pizza was spot-on. A thin, crisp crust and perfectly cooked through. The mussels marinara were excellent. Plump mussels in a light, bright red sauce that had tons of garlic and herb flavor without being heavy. The burrata appetizer was fresh and creamy, served over a bed of greens and tomatoes with a nice drizzle of balsamic glaze that tied everything together. Ordered a shrimp parmigiana hero. It was a little too dry. The tomato sauce was heavy and not as flavorful as the marinara. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices felt fair for the quality. Definitely a solid neighborhood Italian spot. read more

Oh boy, Renzo's in Boca! It's been ages since my last visit, so when my friends suggested we hit up "some Italian restaurant we've never been to," Renzo's was the first thing that popped into my head. I thought, why not? A couple of years later, it'll feel like a brand-new experience! We didn't bother with reservations, seeing as "the season" has passed. We rolled up around 7:15 PM and as a note for first-timers, it's valet-only parking. Free valet, but still valet only. We approached the valet, asking which door was the main entrance. He pointed us to the restaurant up front and the piano bar out back. So off we went to the front, only to find an empty room with employees who promptly directed us "to the back." Back outside we go, where the valet looked baffled to see us again. We explained, "they sent us back here." Yep, confusing. Inside the back entrance, we discovered a cozy little spot with a small bar, a few tables, and a piano player tinkling the ivories. We got a table right at the door--not exactly the best seat in the house, but since it wasn't busy, we didn't have to dodge traffic all night. Our server, Bea, swooped in with some mouthwatering homemade plain and garlic rolls and took our drink orders. The menu was a wild ride: pizza, stromboli, pasta, steaks, seafood--you name it. Many items, including all the meats, were market-priced. Entrées averaged $25-$30, and if you wanted a house salad, prepare to fork over an extra $7. A few $12 Tanqueray and tonics later, our meals arrived. I dove into a veal piccata ($28), while my pals opted for baked ziti ($20) and chicken marsala ($27). Portions were on the smaller side, and soon enough, I glanced around the table and asked, "is anyone else still hungry?" Cue the unanimous "YES!" So, what's the natural response? Dessert, of course. We savored some orange sorbet and a couple of cannolis before calling it a night. All in all, the food was decent, and the service was lightning-fast--we got there at 7:15 PM and were out by 8:00 PM, not exactly my thing as I like to take it slow. Bea was a star, making sure everything ran smoothly. read more

1 Star - Got Severely Sick and Treated Poorly When I Called I've been ordering from Renzo's for a long time and never had a problem until now. Yesterday, my fiancé and I ordered pizza and wings from them. the only meal we ate all day. Around 4 AM, we both woke up extremely sick with vomiting and diarrhea that continued for hours. Out of concern for others, I called the restaurant to let them know what happened so they could check their food. Instead of showing any concern, the employee I spoke with became defensive and dismissive. When I said he was making me feel like it was my fault, he said it wasn't but kept arguing that their food was fine and it wasn't their fault. I asked several times to speak with the owner, Renzo, but the employee refused to connect me. He even tried to discourage me by saying the owner would be "mean" to me, which was completely unprofessional and made me feel intimidated for simply trying to report a serious issue. We're now on our way to the ER because the symptoms haven't stopped. I've always supported this restaurant and never left a bad review before, but this experience was unacceptable, both the food and the way the situation was handled. I won't be ordering from Renzo's again. read more

After finishing dinner, my partner and I left the restaurant through the side door near Valet. An employee wearing purple pants, arriving for work barely swiped me. I spoke with Valet asked them the name of this woman and they refused. No "adult" manager was available. I spoke with Paolo, his response was you didn't get hurt how can we move on....This was a very dangerous situation. I will not return. He told me Renzo is out of the country and leaves these idiots to run his restaurant in his absence. On top of it the food is mediocre. It's gone downhill, as I've been here almost 30 years and I've eaten here and their other restaurant numerous times. Good luck...most of the reviews have gone downhill. read more

Very good neighborhood place Pizza, pasta both very good and you don't have to take out a loan to eat there

Food was great many delicious choices. Service was very good. Loved the energy here. We had a show to make at wick theatre, no problem

We came here for dinner - ordered salmon (I wanted just grilled with lemon and it was ok, not great.) The others ordered eggplants and veal and really liked their choices. So that's how it averaged out to 4 stars. It is a neighborhood place so I know we will be back. They are usually known for their pizzas which are very good! read more

Went on a Saturday night it was very crowded. We sat in the back with Piano player who was wonderful to hear. Had to valet park which we never like to do. Service slow food just ok, we have lived in Florida for 36 years felt like a snowbird.. very noisy. read more

The food is supposed to be good just like the bed in a hotel is supposed to be comfortable. That alone won't bring people back. The place is cramped take out is mixed in with people eating. The staff is very dismissive. Every interaction with a customer can bring referral's and or opportunities for future business. No future opportunity here for me if you don't care about people I don't care about your business. read more

If I could I would give zero stars. It's a shame the Italian food is not bad for f Florida. But then again there are plenty of other Italian restaurants in the area. The whole experience from parking to eating dinner service should be with out any problems. O.K. Let me get to the main issue THE VALET GUY !!!!!! Seems to be a real problem and pattern after reading other reviews. I was parked by the front doors with enough room for car to pass taking on lane . As we were putting our food in the back of the vehicle and just about to leave . He knocks on my window and rudely with an attitude tells me to move. I told him give me a minute you can clearly see we were putting my take out food that I spent $120.00 in the back of the car.and just about to leave. He then called me stupid!!! I think there were other employee outside who saw the incident and did not want to get involved. I then left.i called back the next day regarding the incident spoke to the pizza maker frank who was really nice. I left my phone number for the owner to call me back expecting an apology but was never called back . To me that is very disrespectful. I guess this VALET GUY must have some blackmail on the owner. It's amazing this guy still employed there. I was told the owner has NO BALLS!!!! From where I come from respect is everything. Anyway you lost my business. read more

Had a wonderful dinner at Renzos tonight. The stuffed artichoke was excellent with an ample amount of stuffing, broth, and quite a meaty artichoke. My husband had pizza, one of his favorite here. I ordered the chicken sorrentino.....3 huge pieces of chicken with eggplant and mozzarella. It came in a sherry reduction sauce which was outstanding . Cant wait to eat the TWO days worth of leftovers! The side of angel hair in the same sauce was also terrific. Leaving to go North soon and already looking forward to coming back to Renzos upon our return, This has become our "go to" restaurant for the last several years. Service was great and ambiance was typical pizzeria.....we ate in the pizzeria section, not the back dining room. read more

Fantastic service and food. We dined on a busy night but were seated upon arrival and the service was excellent. I had the linguine and white clam sauce and it was a generous portion of beautiful clams in a delicious sauce. My wife had the eggplant parmigiana and loved it. Again a generous portion that was wonderfully prepared and presented. We finished with tiramisu to celebrate our occasion. It was our first time and we can't wait to go back. read more

The service was impeccable, clean, bathrooms clean, we didnt wait to be seated, entrees came out perfectly, we didnt have to wait long, price was very reasonable , we will definitely be back!! read more

I had the worst experience with the valet. The parking lot was flooded and after parking and wading through ankle deep water I was told I was parked in a pick up zone. Then when I moved my car to another spot after parking I was told I couldn't self park and instead of taking the keys in both instances I was told to move and rudely... I and my friends were so disappointed with the way we were treated. The restaurant and the staff are great!! I think they should think about the first experience customers have when they arrive. Won't be returning... read more

We had takeout last night. I got the veal piccata and it had no flavor! I didn't eat any of it. My friend got chicken Parmesan, and it was blah. My other girlfriend got lasagna. How do you messed that up? Again, no flavor. We're not Italian, so not hard to please. The pizza was just OK read more

We love the old neighborhood Italian vibe . We've have fish, chicken Parma , Baked ravioli and garlic rolls . The sauce is great. Great service Husband get the house Cabernet Always busy I don't like driving in and seeing the kitchen staff through the side door but oh well read more

We had dinner Saturday and we were really disappointed. I ordered the shrimp and scallops dinner served over angel hair pasta. It had 3 tough shrimp, overcooked, and 2 baby scallops over a ton of mushy pasta drenched in a pink cream sauce! The grouper was a special and were told we could have it prepared anyway we liked. First asked for blackened,waiter came back and said chef thought it should be prepared another way. So we asked for piccata. Waiter came again said perhaps another way, asked for francaise. It came also overcooked, soft and it fell apart. It was a cross between francaise and piccata and full of oil, the saving grace was the broccoli rabe. We shared a Caesar salad which was good. Not sure what happened this time as we have been there before and enjoyed it in the past. Maybe try it again in another month or so when season slows down read more

best pizza ever. closest thing to CT new haven pizza. 10/10 would recommend. servers were so nice and speedy

One of the best Italian restaurants I've ever been to, affordable prices across the menu especially the pizza with lots of different options. Great service with friendly staff. Highly recommend! read more

Shame on you Renzos !! Stuffed artichoke was like trying to eat ROOF TILES with a mushy breading top . They served it in a bowl of salt water that the artichoke sat in . This was the worst articoke ever and it was not edible . The stuffes clams came at the same time as the artichoke and they were mushy commercial frozen disgusting also . I will be posting this everywhere so the public does not walk into this nightmare restaurant ! They could fix it but refuse to and there are other artichoke reveiws with same complaint ! They should take it off the menu or better yet just dont eat here ! DO NOT EAT THE ARTICHOKE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Be careful with seafood/clams also order at your own risk !! read more

Absolutely love Renzo's. We tried it for the first time after we waited over an hour at another restaurant (even with a reservation) before finally giving up and deciding to come here. What a difference! We were greeted immediately and service was stellar. Food is absolutely delicious. Even with the many options in the Boca area, we know that we can rely on Renzos to consistently provide great food, great service, and ultimately, a great time! read more

Excellent food. Ambiance is mediocre but have always had good service and food whether you eat in or takeout is very good. May have best chicken parm in the area. read more

Always great pizza when I order! Stretchy cheese and great flavor thanks guys! I haven't ate in yet, but I pick up my orders and a cozy atmosphere. read more

Nothing special. Had a cheese slice which had an odd taste. Suprising cause most of the cheese slices I've eaten have had no taste or not enough flavor. I remember having had a cheese slice at their now defunct BOYNTON BEACH location about 8 years ago which had no flavor at all. That location existed for about 3 years. From what I understand RENZO'S originated in BOYNTON BEACH about 37 years ago then moved their location to EAST BOCA which still exists today and is a dine in Italian restaurant and pizzeria. RENZO'S then returned to BOYNTON BEACH with a second location which failed. Shortly thereafter RENZO'S opened this take out/pick up location about 8 years ago. read more
