A beautiful cozy spot off the boardwalk. Warm friendly staff met us on the sidewalk and welcomed us in. We were just looking for martinis at the bar, and were well taken care of by a seasoned bartender. Next time: dinner from a wonderful looking menu. read more

Excelente cena , la comida excepcionalmente buena con una barra de licores de calidad y muy buenos vinos.

I've been coming here for a while, Anna the owner is nice and always there but something is always wrong when we come here. First time we ordered a middle course and all food landed on the table, pasta and 2 steaks. Big mistake. I think all servers we had are inexperienced or just have so many tables coz we constantly have empty glassware, the food hits the table before having cutlery changed and just have to flag someone down for things. This is a high end establishment and I think these errors should not occur. Cocktails are always on point! Yay Next time I really wanna try some of their desserts I'm just always so full that I just cannot possibly. We had their coffee before and it was good. Overall I am not crazy for this place but my friend is, so I will comeback for him, not for anything else. read more

Went for the first time time on my Birthday , May 21. Was looking forward to my first Veal Chop Parm. Nice cozy spot, family feel. Drinks were nice ,a bit pricey, to be expected. The Shrimp Tempura app was very good as was the Carbonara. However the $70 Veal was not white meat veal, but dark grey and tasted old and salty, big disappointment. Fish was good, small portion served on top of cold potato puree, but well prepared.Service was very good. I regret not complaining but otherwise nice meal. At those prices they know better. read more

I have recommended this amazing steak house to anybody that will listen. I work in the resort industry about 300 feet away and have eaten here on several occasions. The food is perfect every single time and the old fashions are best in the city. Prices and atmosphere are far superior to the bigger guys a few blocks (those are great too, for diff reasons). If you're in the area and want a fantastic steak dinner, this is the spot! read more

I've never had a single guest that I've introduced to my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE place to eat ever say anything but "this is wonderful" and over the years we've ordered everything. I've entertained clients across the country at only the best restaurants and right here in my back yard I find THE BEST. The flavors in ALL the dishes just make me close my eyes attempting to enjoy the tastes just a bit more. The "Gnocchetti Sardi" is amazingly succulent with flavors, I find it difficult to order anything else. Homemade pasta with braised veal shank that lingers in your memories wishing I could recreate. read more

Had dinner on the balcony with some colleagues. Unlike other restaurants in the area , this one is more cozy . We had the calamari with spicy marinara sauce , Greek salad ( they put avocado which makes it more of a mex salad ) to share . I had the lamb chops ( cut is a bit on the thick side and wished it's grilled rather than with sauce ). My colleagues had the meat pasta , veal scallopini and branzino. The winners were the veal and branzino. I tried the pasta which I thought was good. The servers had a good sense of humor and made the dinner more fun ( company excluded ). I like that this feels like more of a place that locals would go to . read more

To put it simply from the beginning hostess was rude. When you arrive at a place and are greeted poorly that sets the tone for the rest of the experience. read more

We've been here a few times, and it never fails us. The ambiance is very romantic, and the building is gorgeous. I do wish they would implement a dress code, since a lot of people go dressed up, but then you'll see someone in jeans and sneakers or shorts and flip flops More importantly, the food. The food is amazing. They served us a complimentary rosemary focaccia (I think)... delicious! And once you place your order, they roll out with some complimentary soups, which vary, but are all DELICIOUS! This time we had some kind of garlic cream soup We ordered the ribeye covered in mushrooms, it was perfectly cooked and such a tender and juicy cut! It could've used a bit more salt, but I like things on the saltier side. We ordered a Ceasar salad, which was nice. Also ordered the carbonara which was soo good, super creamy, and loads of pancetta! Ordered the Nebbiolo which was an easy drink, full bodied, it was great, and didn't break the bank, at only $62. Ordered the croquettes as a side. They were big, crunchy, and creamy filling. But, all in all, not a show stopper. Could've used some salt and acidity. We finished with the cannolis, also very good. Perfectly sized, not too big, not too small, not too sweet, and crunchy. It brings 3 pieces fyi. You can never go wrong coming here, great for a special occasion or date night. Can't wait to come back! read more

Average at best Italian Food, definitely nothing special. The service was great by Johny ,but the food was just average. There is definitely room for improvement. The $74 filet mignon came out with nothing else on the plate just a piece of meat on a plain white plate like something served at an Ikea. Come on guys, whos the chef here?? Will we be back ? Definitely not! read more

We were disappointed when we arrived to find that the wines listed on their website were not the wines (by the glass) that were being served. There was no Cab available without spending $125 for a bottle. Dinner service was excellent. The homemade pasta was amazing! Atmosphere was quaint and romantic. However, music was loud and not the genre you would expect for a relaxing and romantic dinner. read more

For 2: Burrata (Smoky, soft, creamy), veal chop parmigiana (crispy, tender), Gnocchiette Sardi (light pasta, truffle butter, super tasty), tiramisu (love). Outstanding, absolutely perfect meal and well executed. Service was perfect. Ambiance was perfect. Can't wait to come back for more! read more

This place is on a side street that is a old 3 floor House. Very old school in decor. What you expect from an Italian Steakhouse. Dinner was with 2 coworkers. In town for meetings and we always go grab a good steak. Sardelli did not disappoint! Had the 22 oz bone in ribeye, twice baked potato and the meal also came with a soup. Was told it was a vegetable bisque. Very good. My coworkers both had the 8 oz fillet and shared s Cesar salad. They enjoyed their meal as well. Other items on the menu included a few Veal dishes, lamb chops, lobster and several fish dishes. Not inexpensive, but worth it. read more

Excellent food but ridiculously overpriced. How could someone compare there food with an Il Mulino or others. Answer_ you can't. The hype was very disappointing. It was loud and the ambiance lacked any. We were thrown into a table and sat in this place - so crowded. As a true Foodie I'd say save your $$$$ and take it where you have time to savor great food for the price. ‍ read more

What a sweet secret hidden steps from the Hollywood Beach Boardwalk! This large 4 story building/home houses an elegant, charming and understated restaurant. It was so unexpected to find a restaurant worthy of special occasions, date nights or local's regular stops in a beach town known for its super casual boardwalk. I was sooo happy about this discovery! The sweet woman Carmen, who answers the phone and seats guests at their tables is just lovely. She is the Matriarch of the family and the business and her love of the restaurant shows. I heard she does the baking and I saw her leave with cake pans sticking out of her purse. Adorable!! The first floor room is small, dark and cozy. The bar area and chandeliers create a vintage supper club feel. We sat at a corner table in front of a window that let in the last moments of light before sunset. It all felt so right. Our server and his team were wonderful. They were so attentive and offered professionalism reminiscent of a long career of caring for diners. I could not have asked for more when it came to hospitality. Our martinis were shaken to perfection and the wine list was diverse and interesting. The menu offers classic American cuisine and interesting Italian options. The Chef/Owner and the kitchen team were spot on. A lovely cream of vegetable soup was brought out to begin our meal complimentary. It was creamy yet light - delicious. One of the specials was Avocado Salad. It was a beautiful mix of veggies in a light vinaigrette. The presentation of the Smoked Burrata was fun. We loved everything we ordered. I felt so sad hopping on the plane the next day back to Chicago. Not because I was leaving the beach but because I knew it would be a while before I could visit Sardelli again. read more

Old style Italian food with great ambiance. Price are not inexpensive but you get what you pay good

Verdict - 2 out of 5 Ribeyes The restaurant is set in a beautiful styled house with 3 floors right off the main road within Hollywood, Fl. As we had reservations, we were immediately seated and greeted by our waitress. She was very friendly as she announced each of the specials. Ordered a variety of appetizers, each were delicious with great presentation. Between appetizers and entrees, we were surprised by complimentary bowls of vegetable soup by the chef. The soup was tasty alongside the appetizers but the entrees were good but not to the level of expectation for the price that you paid. The lamb chops were mainly fat and the mushroom ribeye lacked flavor. It smelled good due to the fungi but lacked flavor. Short ribs and pappardelle were definitely the winners and fresh. I initially request "Happy 65th Birthday" and to be given after desserts or after-drinks are given but was immediately after dinner with no resting break, my mother-in-law was given molten lava cake and vanilla ice cream alongside written "65" for her birthday before the rest of the table ordered dessert. The reason for the rating is due to the quality of food that reflected the price of the evening. unfortunately,If was not justified. In a location that is nearly a drive away from Aventura, Fort Lauderdale, or even Miami that is littered with established restaurants... especially one that are not constantly adjusting the lights. read more

This was a "so-so" experience for me. I have many friends who have recommended this spot, however I must say I was a tad disappointed. Let's start with the good! The atmosphere is very unique- the restaurant is located in a townhome type building right on the beach. It's very pretty, and valet was incredibly easy. When entering, we had no wait and were taken to our table right away. Service was prompt, and the waiter was very knowledgeable. We started with espresso martinis, which were great as well. Now, onto the food.... This is where I started to become a little less than impressed. We ordered the steak tar tar as an appetizer. This is one of my favorite dishes to have at a nicer restaurant/steakhouse. When Sardeli's version of this dish came out I was a tad confused..... celery and tomato in a steak tar tar?? It seemed like a chicken salad but with minced steak instead...... flavor was ok, but it just wasn't something I would get again. We also decided to share the rigatoni which was really yummy! I was happy with that dish. Lastly..... we got the 8oz filet. This was absolutely TERRIBLE! We had asked for it medium rare. Upon cutting into the steak, it was cooked blue. It looks like it was put on an overly hot grill, seared on all sides, and then put on the plate. The inside of the steak was completely raw and cold. We each tried a bite anyway (of the outside of the steak) and it tasted very game-like. This is really odd for a steak.... Makes me think it was old/bad. I would never get a steak from this place after that experience. Too many other good spots to risk it. I would come back here for a drink and maybe some pasta, but the "meat" portion of their menu I would never re visit. read more

The food was not good. My pasta was dry, the fish was dry, the veal and the chicken Parmesan was tasteless. The mozzarella was not melted. It was poor quality. we had to send back the calamari. it was soggy and soaked in a hot sauce, spicy sauce. The service was slow the ambience was nice. The drinks were good. The wine was delicious. Just don't order food.. We expected to pay for quality, but we did not receive it. read more

Service was exceptional! From Jason the host getting us our table to Julian the waiter taking care of us, they made my wife and I feel special.

This place is a very cute and delicious hidden gem! The atmosphere is great. The service was a bit slow, I'm not sure if that's the norm or if it's because we were on the third floor so it took a while for our server to come back and forth. You have to put your appetizer and order in at the same time. They don't come out at the same time, but I guess this is to alleviate space in the 1 small elevator. One server left to see if there was gluten free pasta available as one of us has a gluten allergy. She took 15 minutes to return and told us gluten free pasta was available but couldn't say what other items on the menu were gluten free, so that took another 15 minutes. It was close to a hour before we could put food in, which was annoying only because they have that rule about ordering appetizers at the same time. Finally, we were able to put food in once she was able to provide more information about the menu. Cocktails were very good and food was delicious. I would return again, in hopes for better service especially for the prices here. read more

This restaurant was recommended to me some time ago, so I bookmarked it & am just getting around to visiting! I feel like paying my colleague for the recommendation! LOL! That's how much my friends & I enjoyed it. I was a bit skeptical when trying to make the reservation, since they r not on Open Table. The reservation was taken, but I was told someone would call back to confirm, especially since I requested a private room. No one called back, so a week later I called to confirm & was told I would b put on the 3rd or 4th floor for a private room. Unfortunately, they never mentioned it was going to b a $100 charge & tried to add it to the bill. They were really good about taking it off the bill, with no fuss! Our server was Carlos & he was so attentive, funny, & just an all around good guy! He made me a drink that was so yummy! I told him I wanted something sweet, but not too strong! It was perfect! We all enjoyed our meals! We had lamb chops, yellow tailed snapper, short ribs, & NY T-bone steak. We were served complimentary tomato soup, which was so yummy, I wanted to lick my plate! We will b back, Sardelli's!!! What a hidden gem u r!! Thx for the wonderful evening!!! read more
