One of my all-time favorite restaurants in South Florida (or anywhere for that matter haha) Rita and chef Franco have done such an outstanding job, creating a vibe to me that is so pleasant and welcoming when I come I feel like I'm home Chef Franco's food is just outstanding some of the best Italian hands down And Rita has created a loving environment, happy awesome staff and done an outstanding marketing job. It's hard for me to come and not get the SACCATINI (Pasta purses stuffed with pears and cheese in a pink sauce) And Pounded veal Milanese But after coming for years finally got some new dishes and everything was nothing short but amazing. If you haven't been your missing out, if you have you KNOW! (Shout out as well to Angela such a wonderful host. And Philip and Sasha incredible servers ) read more

All four of us ordered Veal Picatta and it was melt in your mouth delicious! It came with bread too! We had cheesecake with gelato for dessert. We all went home happy. Service was great! read more

This is a charming, comfortable Italian restaurant with a Sicilian chef/owner. They are a great "go to" local spot. We were warmly greeted upon arrival. We had a calimari platter, mozarella en carozzo, eggplant parm and chicken parm. Each item was comfort food prepared to be enjoyed. Oh, and the bread is good too! read more

After a solid day of work; the family decided to take us somewhere nice for dinner. Browsing around, we decided to take a turn at the Sette Mezzo Ristorante! Going inside, we got in at the nick of time, and were seated immediately. For dinner, we ordered 1x Meatballs, 1x Caprese Tower, 1x Chicken Sette, and 1x Veal Parmesan. Moving on with my review, we had mixed feelings about the food this evening. For starters, I forgot to snap photos, but we were courteously served hot crusty bread with cold butter which was delicious and tasted fresh made! The meatballs were soft to the touch of my fork, also both savory and creamy - definitely order these! The caprese tower came with some kalamata vinaigrette which I thought added a nice salty unami touch and mozzarella was indeed fresh! As for the entrees; the Veal parmesan wasn't grisly, and nicely tender, but I do think the sauce here was to acidic for our liking and could be more balanced. The Chicken Sette was a huge letdown as it was very tough, and the "bechamel" (if you can even call it that) was very bland. Despite my criticism, our server, was very attentive and friendly! Overall, we think the food was above average, but could use some improvements. For this reason, my final review for now is 3/5 stars. read more

Quaint authentic style Italian restaurant located in Coconut creek. The chef is known from being born in Sicily. The inside was decorated nice and had a clean feeling. The food was fresh and flavorful and the portions were large. I ordered the chicken Parmesan entree and totally recommend. The service was spectacular. I definitely recommend this Italian eatery. read more

A tale of three eggplant parmigianas tonight. If I could only pick one, it would be this one. Chef Franco Filippone knew this wasn't our only stop tonight, but boy, he did his best to keep us there. Honestly, I will stay the whole evening next time. First, on Saturday night, the place was packed. We waited a bit and ended up at the chef's table directly behind the pass. This is where all the action is -- don't be afraid to take this one, especially if you are a foodie, because you will see all the great dishes going out. And Franco has an eyeball view of you there. While we waited, I ordered a negroni -- a 1:1:1 ratio of gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth -- I can't argue with it, and it sets the stage. Franco knew we were hungry, so he sent out a cannellini bean, baby shrimp, and arugula with Calabrian pepper (!!!) over crostini app in a garlic sauce, which was fabulous and had a kick -- my plate had the business end of the pepper on it so I took the seeds out and cut it up and redistributed it. If you were to pop that in your mouth whole without doing that you'd be in for a surprise. The eggplant. It's honestly hard to do a better job with this. Nice thin discs (rather than strips) of nicely seasoned and breaded fried eggplant, with a tangy, acidic sauce made with San Marzano tomatoes. Beautiful mozzarella with a nice cheese pull. Perfectly cooked spaghetti in a classic marinara with table parmigiano cheese grating service. This eggplant parm is a fusion of an Italian American version with nice Italian ingredients that is executed perfectly. Would order again and again. We were about ready to pack up, and head over the next victim, but he sent out a pistachio ricotta cheesecake that is to DIE for. I had a bite, asked Rachel to stop eating it and had it packed up with the rest of the eggplant. We're finishing it later. Sette Mezzo is a top Italian restaurant in a sea of Italian restaurants in west Broward. Don't underestimate the food there. read more

Would not recommend. The steak pizziola was terrible, tough steak, very bland sauce. Salad was plain. Will not be back! read more

We really enjoy this restaurant and come here several times a month, but lately the bar seating situation has been frustrating. The last few visits there have been multiple empty bar seats that are being held for people who aren't there yet, which leaves guests standing and waiting even though seats are physically open. We mentioned it to the host tonight and ended up leaving because we couldn't get seats at the bar. Just wanted to share the feedback because we like the place and hope management can find a better way to handle bar seating for guests who are already there. read more

I hate to give a locally owned place so few stars but diners need to know. First, positives: very nice service. Yummy small sourdough loaf. I preface this understanding prices for everything are up - for everyone including diners, + especially restaurants - this was gouging. Two of us ordered a chopped salad. I had expected the ingredients listed on the menu with lettuce + lots of flavor. I added grilled chicken. Welp - There was lettuce - and the most minuscule representation of chickpeas, peppers, cabbage and whatever else was supposed to be in there. We were laughing, "Oh look I found a chickpea!". In contrast, for the same price this week I shared a grilled chicken Greek salad at D'Vash with a friend, brimming with all the elements of a Greek salad and the chicken. Most egregious was the side. I asked for a side of zucchini and a taste of their sauce. I received nicely seasoned green and yellow squash - about total size of half a zucchini - in a small dish. Zucchini is anywhere from .99 - 3.99 a pound retail. When I saw my bill - my head blew up. $12 for half a zucchini!! Again, I know prices are up but what???? The server said "all our sides are $12" - which I may have missed on the menu while chatting. So the small dish of sautéed spinach, similarly priced retail, would be $12??? I expressed my surprise because I really was surprised! Zero effort to reduce, and I didn't ask. My friends were waiting. read more

The calamari dish with mushroom and zucchini slices was absolutely amazing. I had the eggplant parm, which was also excellent, and my partner had the saccatini, which were delightful and just the right balance of pear to cheese. Drinks were delicious, and ricotta cheesecake and ice cream for dessert did not disappoint. Will definitely be back for more! read more

Damn... Damn.... The portions at this place are amazingly large and they fill you up. But the best is that everything is so fresh and so good. The flavors of real Italian is in all the dishes here. The specials are fabulous and filling. The pasta is always dead on and so good. We come here often with friends and every time we order 6 meals and split it up between us all cause the dishes here are so good. You will not be disappointed. You will spend a bit of cheddar here but will get a bunch of Parmesan in return. read more

Had a wonderful dinner here recently. We read that the chef was born in Sicily and raised in NY. I ordered veal piccata (capers and lemon sauce) with a side of rapini (broccoli rabe) while my wife had rigatoni alla Norma (breaded eggplant, pomodoro sauce, and ricotta salata with grilled shrimps as protein add-ons). The Peroni beer went very well with my dish. For dessert, we had coffee and shared tiramisu. Perfect! The ambiance, pricing, and service were all very good. When in Coconut Creek, make sure to visit... read more

I can't believe how many times I've driven by this restaurant and had no idea it was there. I heard about it on a an episode of the show Check Please and it looked good. We usually eat out on the weekends in Ft. Lauderdale or Delray, so it's not a place or in an area that we otherwise would have tried. We Finally got around to trying it tonight and it did not disappoint! The waitress was very friendly. All of the food is clearly made from scratch and to order. We had the baked brie wrapped in Italian bacon for an appetizer and it was outstanding. We then had the lobster pasta special and the lasagna and both were excellent. We had it with an inexpensive bottle of Italian wine and finished it all off with the tiramisu which was delicious. Not only would we eat here again, we are looking forward to it. read more

Our waitress was fabulous - attentive and bubbly personality + she memorized an extensive list of specials to share in detail. We were a party of 7 and ordered several things to share. The food and cocktails were delicious and nobody left hungry or cranky! Will go back for sure read more

This is the real thing! We have been here for a dinner for 2, dinner for 8 and parties with family members and we reserved the private room. Each and Every dinner has been outstanding. The specials, are amazing. Chef is outstanding!! Service and ambience is fantastic We are always looking for a reason to have dinner Sette Mezzo. We celebrate every special occasion at Sette Mezzo. If you haven't been here, you don't know what you are missing. read more

Best Veal Parm around. Chickens good but the Veal here is the real deal. Pounded thin but not so thing that it dries out when they cook it. And it's huge. Impressive dish and plenty to share or take home. I've also enjoyed several of their pastas and they are all good. Being lazy not looking it up but the pasta purses stuffed with pears and cheese are a delicious treat! I wouldn't be afraid to try anything on this menu read more

My fiance and I were very happy with the service and food. The waitstaff was attentive, and the chicken and veal parm's we ordered were delicious. We have been looking for a "neighborhood" Italian restaurant for some time now, and have genuinely struggled. Most of the options in Coral Springs are either high end and expensive (still good but not somewhere to go on a regular basis) or your typical low quality chains. Sette Mezzo has hit the mark on all of our wants and we can't wait to go back. read more

I have invited friends from Québec Canada, to celebrate my wife's birthday. As an appetizer, we ordered the fritto misto, as an entree they trusted me to order, so I ordered the veal scallopini alla pizzaiola, with a side of spaghetti, the subtle taste of the garlic and the fresh tomatoes were amazing, the birthday girl ordered the pappardelle with shrimps, porcini mushrooms and truffles, without forgetting a nice bottiglia di vino rosso. For dessert, tiramisu and cannoli. The food was excellent and the ambiance was vibrant! Our server, miss Russo was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and a true professional. We live in Lake Worth and our friends live in Hallandale Beach but the drive to Sette Mezzo was all worth it. Chef Franco runs his business like a well oiled machine. He's got a great team to back him up. Keep up the great work guys! read more

Have been here many times. Always order the veal chop on the bone parmigiana style. Delicious. This time I ordered eggplant parmigiana. It says " lightly floured". It was heavily breaded and fried and the presentation was not appealing. Very disappointed. On a positive note, atmosphere and service by Sasha was great. Will probably return but never order the eggplant! read more

Unpretentious but nice Italian restaurant, the food was satisfactory. The menu had a decent selection of interesting choices and we each found something to our taste. I had the Sette chicken which was enjoyable and a nice change of pace (but I never received the pasta I ordered with it). The lasagna was tasty and the portion ample. My mom liked the Chicken piccata but said that it needed more sauce. Service was below subpar. We were seated in the side dining room. It was abundantly clear that they were having servers pick up tables in the side dining room in addition to their main sections and I'm pretty sure that was the problem. Out of sight, out of mind. We spent at least an extra hour waiting, multiple items were delayed or outright forgotten. Not sure why I didn't just ask for a new server because ours was a wreck. Lesson learned. This place is out of the way for us to begin with, if we return it would be because we're in the neighborhood. read more

A friend recommended Sette Mezzo to my husband and had nothing but good things to say, so we decided to give it a try. We optd to sit at the bar as the tables were full when we arrived at 6:30. We were greeted right away by the friendly bartender but took a little for her to take our beverage order - fine we were not in a hurry. My husband ordered a few speciality cocktails he was happy with and we started w the burrata as an app. Very good and the pomadoro tomatoes were perfection. Our main courses were delicious. I got eggplant parm and my husband optd for the veal cut special. He enjoyed it Parmesan style and left his plate w not a crumb. Food is overall very good but it is VERY loud in the restaurant. It's small w an open kitchen so I'm glad we were sitting closely at the bar so I could here our conversation. We will be back. Easy to find and plenty of parking. read more

This is our favorite Italian restaurant! I was just there on Friday night and brought a family member that was visiting from out if state. The dinner was last minute and we only had a very short time because we had purchased tickets for a comedy show in another city. We figured we were just getting a quick glass of wine and an appetizer, but they made it so that we were able to enjoy a full dinner in that short time. They exceeded all expectations They consistently deliver on Service and the food is delicious ! read more

I can't believe that I missed this place for so long. What a pleasure on believable I walked in, went to the bar to see if I can find a seat another customer sesame come on over here it will squeeze you win, and from that moment on, it was magic the server I was so pleasurable I ordered side salad. which came promptly it was so fresh I couldn't finish it off, followed by probably the best piece of veal milk fed cooked to perfection and the pasta out of this world. I'm still in shock. I'm not quality of this meal had a cup of coffee some Tara Massu and thank you owner operator for a very special restaurant. I'm so happy. I'm a new customer read more

Very cute place, we keep trying to make it our spot! My husband gets the chicken parm and the appetizer meatballs, he loves it. I am pescatarian so I have been trying the shrimp dishes, and tonight, unfortunately like other nights, the shrimp continues to have a chlorine/lighter fluid taste. I thought it was the scampi, or the olive tomato pasta, but no, it seems to be the shrimp, all-around. We ordered to-go for my husband's birthday, so I threw mine out and let him enjoy his. Moving forward, I say stay away from the shrimp dishes if you want to get your money's worth. read more

After reading mostly good reviews and having to be out west, I decided to go here and I ended up being very disappointed. However there were some positives such as a friendly staff and a welcoming casual environment. However the food was just not good. A Chicken Parm seemed to be thawed incorrectly or just wasn't fresh. The menu states that the Pappardelle with Pesto is made from the "chefs basil sauce" but it also didn't seem very fresh and the thin sauce was devoid of flavor. The only item that we tried that was okay was the pizza and that wasn't enough to compensate for the other poor dishes. read more

Our favorite local Italian restaurant! They have the best veal parmesan! So tender that you can cut it with a fork! The staff is friendly and gives great recommendations! The meat sauce is dynamite and the hot fresh bread is crusty and delicious! The pizzas are unique and the perfect size to share. Their homemade desserts are to-die-for yummy! Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Wow! We stopped here truly by accident, and I am so glad we did. Our server John helped us pick our dishes, they were patient and accommodating to my family plus our 7 month old. We got there early 5:30 so it wasn't busy at all but by the time we left 6:45 there wasn't even a table available. Some of the best Italian we have had in a while. Not pictured but we got fresh bread to start and outstanding mussels (not on the menu) My husband got the veggie coal fired pizza, we got the chicken parm classic, the pear pocket and the salmon special of the night. Each of us were raving how good our meals were. Paired my meal with the Rose which was also delicious. I can't wait to come back! Please give this hidden gem a try if your in Coconut Creek! read more

Zuppa di pesce with lobster tail!! Lobster Fra Diavolo!! Great night, great service. Real Italian food.

This homey Italian restaurant is so cute inside and the food was very good! The staff was super accommodating and sweet. I called for a last minute reservation on a Saturday night for a party of 10 and was rejected everywhere I called but Sette Mezzo took our group. The menu is huge and full of amazing dishes from pasta to meat dishes, vegetarian friendly options to desserts. Everyone at our table tried something different and everyone agreed their choice was delicious. I started with a Siciliano Negroni drink and it was delightful. A very sweet light aperitivo. Then I had the fried calamari appetizer platter. I loved that it came with other items besides calamari. The mushrooms were fantastic! For a main dish, I got the clams with linguine in a white garlic butter sauce. The clams were done very well without sand and the pasta was al dente. It was super salty but flavorful. The garlic sauce wasn't overpowering either. Over all very good and a hefty portion. read more

Dinner was very nice sitting outside until friends of the Chef showed up puffing on cigars! It was supposed to be a nice birthday dinner, drinks and dessert but the lack of concern for others made our table and others leave or end dinner quickly! Actions of a table of four ruined our group and others who just got up and left. read more

Went with a large group after a funeral. It was a Saturday afternoon so the place was only open for our group. The staff was welcoming and very attentive. The meal was prearranged so I didn't get to see their normal menu items. The meal was served at a nice pace and we were not rushed Bread, pasta, chicken, calamari, eggplant parm, salad and assortment of desserts were all delicious. Several at the table ordered cappuccino and said it was especially delicious. I think the name of the restaurant is a play on words because when you go to Italy none of the restaurants open for dinner until "sette mezzo!" 7:30. read more

The meal was expensive, small, and tasted like it was out of a can. Chicken parm isn't that hard. My wife hated the gnocchi also.

Nice special tonight. Lobster tail, salmon, little neck clams mussels and calamari on a bed of pasta. Seafood was great. Service also great. read more

We were here several years ago and decided to try it again. Went on a Saturday which was a mistake, The dining room which wasn't full was so loud and noisy, we moved outside. They served you hot bread in a paper bag, novel. Just ordered mains, I chose the Shrimp Arrabiata, pan sauteed in a spicy fresh tomato sauce with Calabrese peppers and Cerignola olives over pasta. Four large shrimp over a small amount of pasta. Spicy and very good. My wife loves Chicken Parmigiana, comes with a choice of a side of pasta or vegetables and potatoes. She thought it was just average. I ordered a glass of wine and a very short pour. Definitely not returning. read more

The first time we went to Sette Mezzo I had a pizza dish (wasn't that great). But this second time, I got pasta. Lesson learned: if you go to a nice authentic Italian place...get pasta. I got the mafalde alfredo with chicken. WOW. Perfect. Sauce had just the right amount of flavor. Didn't even need an additional pinch of salt/pepper. Mafalde pasta was cooked perfectly, a little al dente. Very tasty. Also thought it was a great portion. Rather pay a little extra for a smaller portion of quality food than a bigger portion of subpar food. I really appreciated such a good, authentic, Italian restaurant getting this simple but traditional dish right. Service was fantastic. Waitress rattled off ~10 different specials from memory. Very impressed. Service was a little slow at times, glass of wine took a while to come out and we were offered cheese to top of our pasta dishes after we were already halfway through them. But it's a beautiful restaurant so sit back and enjoy a glass of wine. We also had a dessert but ate it too quickly to grab a picture lol Some variation of apple pie a la mode. Highly recommend. Will definitely be going back the nice time we're craving some authentic Italian. read more

Rock solid 4 (wish they had a 4.5, because I reserve 5 stars for mind-blowing experiences that are rare). We did carry out because one of our party wasn't up to traveling in the car.
