Ciao Ammore trattoria 257-B Commercial Boulevard, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, FL 33308

"Traditional Italian fare, I think it's run by an Italian family? Service a little slow, but it was just two running between taking orders, food running, and clearing tables on a Friday night. Pasta is absolutely amazing, the only thing I'd complain about there is the size of the portions leave a little more to be desired."

"Superb cuisine, like eating in Florence. Very pleasant atmosphere, feel welcome, staff looks after you like family. Prices are also affordable and great value. My favourite restaurant !"

"As a very big fan of good Italian food (talking about Italian food in Italy) I can say, one of the few restaurants impressed me outside Italy. Very good food. Even in Italy you don’t find the choice of food so easy, they serve here. Feels like I am eating at a good Italian friend."

"A small and authentic Italian restaurant. I’d recommend booking a table when you’re thinking of going here since it’s a cozy and popular space. Everything we ate was great and the service was fantastic. The parking is a bit tricky to get into, though."

"Delicious Italian food can be found in this charming little family run restaurant in downtown Lauderdale by the Sea. We came here for dinner last Saturday night and felt fortunate to get in. I had the Orecchiette Broccoli E Salsiccia and my husband had fettuccine with meat sauce. Both meals were amazing. The pasta is cooked al dente, which we prefer and the sauces are so flavorful. Also, the sausage in my meal was high quality and not fatty. The owners and waiters were so nice and attentive. Excellent service!"
