Service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious even though I had mine the following day. Ambiance was very pleasant except that our table was very close to the bathrooms. This is a small restaurant and we were walk ins so couldn't be too picky. My only complaint is that they don't have a bar which feels more comfortable when ordering food to go. Overall, an exceptionally good Italian place. We will definitely return whenever in the Ormond area.

The main theme here was Salt! And I'm not referring to the book by Mark Kurlansky. The Calzone was super salty and so was the pasta Alfredo. The chef must be nick-named "Big Pinchy" (RIP Vincent P.) as his pinch of salt must be like 1/2 a cup. The meatballs were overcooked, like grandma forgot the stove was on medium and they just cooked for hours in boiling sauce. I've done it so I know the taste! I don't think I'm going back anytime soon. Even with the nice decor and friendly service. If I wanted this much salt in my life, I'd just take a bite out of the ocean next door.

It's a small intimate restaurant with specific sitting times. It's not a place where you can just step in but better to make a reservation to. The Caesar salad was made table side by scratch. For a few bottles of wine and apps to start. We then all ordered different menu items and my dad let the chef pick for him and we all enjoyed what we had. This was definitely the perfect spot to celebrate with my parents and we look forward to perhaps celebrating again next year or for any upcoming birthday.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ITALIAN FOOD!…read more My son and I stopped at Tiano's on a whim Saturday evening, and I am SO glad we did! We were heading back home to Fort Pierce after stopping at Bass Pro Shop and Guitar Center when I spotted this Italian restaurant and told my son, "I am really craving pasta." We decided to give Tiano's a try. OH. MY. GOODNESS. From the very first bite, we were blown away. We started with the bruschetta, and I am not exaggerating when I say it was the best bruschetta I have ever had in my life. Then came the Caesar salad, which was absolutely delicious, and finally I ended up in pasta HEAVEN with the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo. The shrimp, the pasta, the sauce--EVERYTHING was incredible. I honestly cannot remember having better Italian food. My son ordered the Shrimp Scampi, and this is probably the best review I can give Tiano's: the boy basically stopped talking. He just sat there eating and moaning with every bite. When he finally spoke again, he said, "I cannot get over how good this is. This is the best shrimp scampi I have ever had!" And THE BREAD!!! Their bread is baked in the fire oven and practically melts in your mouth. Absolutely incredible. We enjoyed everything so much that we had to personally tell both the cook and the manager how impressed we were. They were so personable, welcoming, and down-to-earth, which made an already wonderful experience even better. My only complaint is that Tiano's isn't closer to Fort Pierce because I would probably eat there ALL THE TIME... although maybe it's a good thing for my waistline that I can't! Great job, Tiano's! You gained two very happy customers Saturday night. Whenever we are back in the area, you can absolutely count on us stopping in again. Five stars isn't enough!

The hostess sat us down at a table during busy dinner time with less than a 5-minute wait. We were shown to our table and menus, and they had brought out some really tasty bread with a plate of olive oil, a mound of Parmesan, and "Tiano's" written out with balsamic vinegar. What a cute and memorable way to welcome us to our table. After browsing the menu, I ordered a Peach Bellini to start and a Chicken Francese for my entree. I dish was filling without feeling heavy. I just loved the combination of garlic, lemon, and white wine sauce. Others in my party ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo and the Stuffed Shells, and they loved their dishes too. Also, I absolutely loved the Caesar salad. It's what I usually order but their dressing was really good compared to other places I've tried. We all agreed that dinner at Tiano's was a great decision - and I'm glad we got to experience genuine service, delicious food and drinks during our stay in Daytona Beach.

What an experience from the moment we arrived. The restaurant decor is a feast for your eyes!…read more We did not have reservations and they only had a table outside on a 90 degree day. My hubby had been working outside all day and asked if we could wait for an inside table. The host personally went and cleared/reset a table for us. My husband tried to tip him and he would not accept it. Our server was Cassandra and she was amazing. After dinner and dessert we asked for some recommendations amd she had some great ones. We had the lamb, a filet and a ny strip. All were cooked perfectly. The standout for me was the fried chicken. You can add a breast or thigh to any meal. I had a thigh and it was one of the best I have had. Crispy, tasty and the chicken itself was tender and juicy. When I come back I am definitely ordering the chicken! If you're in the area, definitely give this place a try. There is free valet parking, which is helpful since there is not a lot of parking. The valet were hustling! Did I mention the heat? Don't forget to tip them. The faster they move the higher the tip in my opinion.

Apparently reservations are recommended I know they asked us and everyone else who entered even though it was early afternoon on a Wednesday. We were seated in the dining room just off the lobby, yes very nostalgic, the dim lights and cloth covered tables takes you far far away from this beach town even though the ocean is washing over the beautiful sand just across the street. Our server Chloe was exceptional from the moment we were seated and throughout our dinner service. The menu is pages long so unless you've been here before and have a favorite it's a little overwhelming but we got through it and Chloe was patient as we ordered single items until we decided on our entree's. Appetizer - The baked clams, made to order, so there is a wait but there is also crusty Italian bread and oil for dipping while you wait and they are definitely worth the wait. Soup or Salad - comes with the meal so we chose one of each - the spinach soup is heavenly with it's velvety texture and served hot (nothing here arrives lukewarm) the salad is traditional but the balsamic dressing is magical I wanted both so we shared. We picked the lobster ravioli and chicken piccata for the main courses and that's when we agreed this is probably the best restaurant in town, the food was amazing as was the service. Everything here earns a bookmark and a return visit, there are so many things I wanted to try - nice portions and great prices makes this a must try if you're looking for that special place in this little beach town...

He then took our order, I ordered chicken parmigiana with linguine pasta. My husband ordered eggplant parmigiana with penne pasta.

Our server brought out our plates, they looked good but my husband ordered penne pasta and received linguine. My food was ok, not better or worse than any other Italian restaurant we have gone to. I make my own paste from scratch and you definitely can tell this pasta is not made from scratch. The atmosphere was nice, put on music that wasn't too loud, but honestly happy we went but not sure anything is pulling us back to go again.
