“ This is a wonderful hidden gem. From the moment we stepped inside this quaint place, we were warmly greeted and made to feel welcome. The warm, homemade bread was out of this world, and I have never said that about bread in my life. The caprese salad was a beautiful and refreshing starter, only to be upstaged by our meals. Everything was so excellent and tasted wonderful. Check out this place in Ft. Lauderdale. We had a small kiddo with us, and even though they didn't have a children's menu, there was plenty of food to share. ”
“ The food and services were fantastic. We came in for pizza, but discovered it wasn’t on the dinner menu. I had the spinach ravioli and a Caesar salad along with the homemade bread-it was fantastic; didn’t miss pizza at all. We really enjoyed our meal and the service was great. Really reminded me of authentic Italian restaurants. ”
“ What an absolute charming restaurant! The service was excellent, and the waitress (I'm assuming the owner) had an amazing personality! Even the other patrons within the restaurant were nice, I ended up talking to some other patrons as if old friends! It's just a wonderful, wholesome vibe... Now to food... first off, I love bread, fresh, warm, flooofy bread. It was bomb. The entree was yummy too, chicken spinach pasta with a cream sauce. Everything was amazing, I now see why they have so many amazing reviews! And they were very reasonably priced! ”
“ This is a true gem. Small family run authentic Italian restaurant. First visit we got the pepperoni pizza. Old style! Wonderful crust. Second visit we got brushetta, gnocchi, and cannoli. Brushetta was so great. Very generous with the tomatoes. I've never had gnocchi that was so light and tasty. And the cannoli was amazing with generous cream filling. They don't have wine but you can bring your own and there is no cork fee. This place is a treasure. ”
“ This is a really hidden gem if I can will give 10 stars Little restaurant with amazing Italian food! The homemade bread we had 2 with olive oil.You can’t get enough!
