    Caesar salad
    Jennifer D.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Short answer? YES. We finally tried it and are all so glad…read morewe did; delicioso! Our server, Megan, was so cheerful and helpful that we were immediately put in a good mood (though, tbf, I was pretty excited going in); they've got diet Dr. Brown's Black Cherry... always a good sign! The St James tea is a nice drink, too. Megan brought out some dough bites with a marinara and a vodka dipping sauce and, sorry, but they put everyone else's garlic knots to absolute shame! Nice cracky crust skin with crazy moist soft fluffy interior for every bite, a little heat from the garlic, and both sauces were tasty. The 16" pies are bona fide large pies, not 14" masquerading as full: We got the NY OG and the Vodka. The crusts are ridiculously good; super thin, with a crack on 'em, but still also moist and chewy, with a nice burn (not over-done, just enough charr). The NY OG toppings are light but there and have good mozz flavor; the vodka had a bit of bite once it set and the toppings are a bit heavier dollops. We (three of us, all originally from NJ and two of us with another 25 years in NYC under our belts) all loved it- genuine NY style pizza (we settled on thinking it's a combo of Patsy's and Mikes with better texture than either alone). Place is cute, super clean, though not much parking out back (of course, it's downtown Boca in the heart of Mizner, though apparently they offer valet at night anyhow). Like Arnie said, we'll be back.

    So I'm not really sure why everyone thinks this is a great pizza place, We tried it for the first…read moretime today hoping for an amazing pizza. In my opinion it was not good. The biggest thing was that the crust was totally burnt. We were hungry so we just delt with it. I could go on but I'll refrain!
