“ I got the fried calamari and the garlic rolls and chicken Alfredo. Everything was really good the squid was fried perfectly, nice and soft lightly battered with a bit of a crisp. Alfredo was great noodles cooked perfectly and sauce was nice and creamy as it should be and the rolls were hot and spongy with garlic and olive oil. Go eat here the owner is super sweet and reminded me of my grandpa! ”

“ We have a blast in this restaurant. It’s feels like a family place, not big, not small, delicious food. Perfect for all family. We’ve been leaving in Pompano for around 3 year and never have the opportunity to this restaurant til yesterday, that we finally decide to try Italian food. The environment it’s nice and comfy. The service of everyone over there is really nice. The food and dessert makes you feel like home made from grandma. We got a really nice Chianti wine to get with our food. Our kiddo was fascinated with the ravioli and trust me he’s lkind of picky with food. We was thinking on something but then the server offer the special of the day and we change our minds. We took osobuco with minestrone and lasagna. It was really well served and delicious. For dessert we had chocolate cake, really nice and soft. We definitely recommend and we’ll be back. ”
