- MMary LouvipFort Lauderdale •49 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoIf you’re in the area and looking for some basic Italian this is a good place to consider. It’s the second time we have been here and both times the food and service did not disappoint. The seating is tight so probably not the best for large groups but otherwise would highly recommend it.More infoIl PiattoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown•4.6

- HHowardWest Palm Beach •16 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoGreat family style Italian restaurant experience. We had dinner in one of the little side rooms which added an unexpected degree of intimacy. Shrimp fra diablo was excellent, along with the Caesar salad, and the garlic toast. But the dessert was the best— the Titanic is unforgettable! Excellent service complemented well the exceptionally excellent food.More infoCarmine's - Washington DCPrice: Moderate• Italian• Penn Quarter•4.5
