O Sole Mio Cucina Italiana

This place has the best pizza in Alachua so far! I tried it about 10 years ago and loved it but it’s a little bit of a drive so, today I decided to go get some pizza and I took the 30 minute drive! it reminds me of an old school, Italian restaurant/pizzeria that they have in New York! They got one hell of a selection of pizza! They also have desserts and a menu that should satisfy anybody who loves Italian food! I took a picture of my pizza and the menu so you could see everything they have! Definitely worth a try if you haven’t had it yet! I will be back!

From the moment we arrived, our experience at O Sole Mio Cucina Italiana was warm and welcoming. The atmosphere felt cozy and authentically Italian, perfect for a relaxing evening out. We started with the garlic knots light, fragrant, and just the right amount of garlic an excellent opening. For salads, we shared both the Caesar and the house salad; the Caesar had crisp romaine, generous dressing, and just enough anchovy punch, while the house salad provided a nice fresh balance with vibrant greens and simple, good quality toppings. For mains: the chicken parmesan with spaghetti was a standout. The chicken was breaded well, cooked through, topped with rich tomato sauce and melted cheese, and the spaghetti was cooked to al dente perfection and paired with just the right amount of sauce not

Met with a group of friends for lunch. There's plenty of parking. We had a girl take our drink order 2x. Then, Calvin finally came to take our order. We didn't have to wait long to get our food. They brought garlic rolls out - those were very good. The serving was a decent size. The dish was basically fettuccine with chicken mushrooms and spinach. There was barely any spinach. Overall it was a good experience and would go there again.

The restaurant's appearance hides this gem, the inside lighting is inviting and a small interior with beautiful artwork and glass chickens. The free bread they give is garlic knots which are phenomenal and not too buttery. The pasta dishes however outclass the bread, the noodles are a perfect aldente, the sauce is wonderfully creamy and the myriad of options allow anyone to find their favorite dish. The dessert is also very affordable, the chocolate tuxedo mousse is light but rich. This restaurant exceeded other fancy authentic Italian places, with its casual affordable and delectable goods I cannot emphasize how delicious this restaurant is.

Wow. What a surprise this place was. We ordered a California salad and ask for it split onto two and as you can see it's huge and filled with great fresh ingredients. The family size Calzone was amazing too! Sorry ..it was so big I forgot to take a picture before it was cut up! Returned for more a couple later.. We had Jimmy as our server on the second trip and he is spot on! Just great food!! Have returned several times...its always good!
