Customer Reviews
We had dinner at this Italian restaurant and absolutely loved it💖The place is beautifully designed with plenty of seating indoors, and there’s also a stunning backyard area by the water with boats, which creates an amazing view 🛥️ We ordered pasta with mussels and gnocchi, and for appetizers we had grilled octopus and the arancini special recommended by our server. Everything was incredibly delicious, especially the arancini! We truly enjoyed our dinner and highly recommend this place!💫
Went for our anniversary dinner, and overall it was just okay. I was expecting something a bit nicer. We sat outside by the water, but the view wasn’t great and I kept getting bitten by mosquitos, which made it less enjoyable. The food had some highs and lows. The meatballs were good but could use a bit more seasoning. The seafood especially the lobster was fantastic. The short rib and risotto were good as well, though the meat was a bit fatty. The ricotta cheesecake, unfortunately, was not good at all and tasted powdery, definitely something that should be reworked or removed from the menu. The cannoli, on the other hand, was good. Service was okay but could have been more attentive, and the drinks could use some improvement. Overall, the experience was fine, but I just had higher expec
Let’s start with the space: it’s cramped inside, so do yourself a favor and grab an outdoor table if you can. This place is busy, loud, and clearly popular. The staff is efficient and friendly, and judging by the number of regulars, this place is doing something right. Our wobbly table was fixed instantly — a good start. We went straight for the carpaccio, which unfortunately was drowned in oil and had a slightly slimy texture. For me, that’s a miss. Carpaccio should be delicate, clean, and fresh — not swimming. The vongole pasta had great flavor, and the clams were massive compared to Europe — impressive. But here’s the issue: too much sauce. When pasta starts edging toward soup, someone in the kitchen needs to put the ladle down. Now, the bolognese — and in any Italian restaurant, th
I would like to mention the service. The waiter was also very smiling, the owner of the place came to the table to check that we were satisfied. The location on the river, the atmosphere with pleasant music . I recommend the place and will come back here again. We ate sea bass with vegetables and mashed potatoes, pasta
Lovely location, on the water, giving just the right romantic vibe. Leo, our server, was amazing! He remembered our last visit and made us feel at home. Food is delicious, and truthfully Italian cuisine. We had Mozzarella in Carroza, Ravioli del giorno ( seafood with pink sauce), Milanese, and Gnocchi. Superb. One of my favorite restaurants in Fort Lauderdale.
