"The best original Italian Restaurant in Florida. We'll come back!!"

"If you’re in town for an authentic Italian food, you arrived! This place reminds me of the old golden days! Family owned and operated. Quality food and service, very friendly atmosphere. We have tried their appetizer, pizza, pasta, seafood, wine and dessert. Everything was outstanding. The place is very cozy and comfortable. You won’t feel lost. And always someone will be there to take care of your needs. Not to mention The natural delicious smell from the wood oven! Oh gosh ! Thank you very much for having us. Will definitely see you soon"

"We loved it! The antipasti were awesome and a meal by themselves. All the pizze were excellent, San Daniele, diavola, rustica. We also enjoyed drinking the Montepulciano. Great service. Will go back to try the pasta. Recommended."

"Genuine Italian cooking. Excellent service and delicious food. If you are looking for an atmosphere like in Italy you will find it here. The menu is very full and they always have plenty of specials. We enjoyed the fresh Mediterranean Sea Bass and Lasagna. Our waiter was highly professional and very attentive."

"This place looks unassuming from the outside, but you are walking into some amazing Italian food. The service here is excellent- the server provided awesome recommendations, our water stayed filled, and he was very friendly. I’m typically particular about my Italian food, and this place exceeded my expectations. We started with two appetizers- grilled octopus and a burrata/prosciutto dish. The octopus was super tender and seasoned perfectly. The burrata dish was an excellent mix of flavors. I had the lobster ravioli for dinner and it was out of this world. My friend had the veal Parmesan and it was huge, tender, and delicious. We couldn’t have asked for a better meal"
