Di Farina - A True Hidden Gem!…read more Visited Di Farina for a company dinner tonight, and I am so glad I did! This is one of those hidden gems you almost don't want to share, just so there's always a table waiting for you. We started with a spread of appetizers: grilled octopus, garlic shrimp, fried burrata with arugula, and perfectly layered potatoes topped with braised short rib and fonduta. Every single dish was incredible--I honestly can't pick a favorite, though the short ribs stole my heart. For mains, I had the osso buco with pappardelle (their pastas are all freshly made in-house, and you can taste the difference). Our table also enjoyed the branzino, which was deboned tableside, the massive squid ink seafood linguini (so loaded with seafood you could barely see the pasta), and a rich, creamy carbonara that was perfectly balanced. Desserts were the perfect finale: tiramisu, cheesecake, and a refreshing lemon sorbetto, each as good as the last. The service was flawless, and the entire staff is Italian, adding to the authentic charm of the experience. Di Farina has officially become my new go-to spot for Italian nights. 10/10 on food, service, and atmosphere--can't wait to return!

Is this a pasta shop? A restaurant? Well it tuns out it is both! This unassuming place on…read moreAtlantic is home to some really good Italian food and excellent service. You park in the back and enter along the bar. The intimate seating area faces the street. On this night I was late in joining some of my friends so I ordered simply, spaghetti carbonara which is always my Italian "go to". Combined with a lovely Cabernet, my dinner was like eating in a small trattoria in Italy. I like that they give you a choice of handmade pasta and toppings to choose from. We also got some complimentary cannolis which made me smile. Oh, and if you want some pasta to take home? Go to their attached shop and pick it up. Your restaurant receipt will give you 10% off if you use it within 7 days. Di Farina is that place that you need to add to your regular rotation of restaurants. It's just that unique of a place!

Went on Christmas Eve. Place was packed and a little louder than usually would be…read more Loved that you could order from the regular menu and bit a special holiday one. We both had a soup to start. I had the stracciatella and my wife had the pasta e fagioli. Both were in big bowls and were wonderful. My main course meal was the tagliatelle nere all a pescatore and wife had a special, the Flounder Amalfi. Both were big servings and wonderful. Both were a meal the next night. For a packed house, the service could not have been better. Experienced waitstaff met all of our needs and we never felt rushed. Just a wonderful experience. Our 6th time here and will be back

The bruschetta was excellent, honestly some of the best I've had, and the molten lava cake was absolutely to die for. The flounder special was also loved by everyone at our table who ordered it. That said, there were a few misses. My mom had called a week ahead to let them know her husband was vegan, and the person she spoke with was very kind and said they would speak with the chef and be prepared. When we arrived, the waitress acknowledged they knew we had a vegan guest, but the option offered was simply spaghetti with vegetables. When it came out, it was just plain pasta without vegetables. They apologized and corrected it, but after the advance call, we expected something a bit more thoughtful. The restaurant was also very loud and crowded, and with our larger table, people on opposite ends had to practically yell to hear each other. The staff seemed stretched thin, so service was not as attentive as it could have been, though we did appreciate that we never felt rushed. Food-wise, the bruschetta and desserts were excellent, the meatballs were just okay, and while my mom loved the rack of lamb, I found mine a bit overdone and overpowered by the sauce. We were also disappointed they were out of branzino, since several people in our party had planned to order it. Overall, La Perla has a lot of charm, very good food, and a warm, authentic feel. I'd happily go back, but probably with a smaller party and maybe on a less busy night.

It looks great and I thought it looked better and different somehow from what I saw online. We got there early so they were not busy. Derek was our server and he was very polite and came around just the amount of times we needed him. I think he is an awesome server. The bread was served warm with some olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I liked that combination. Our entrees came out pretty fast. Maybe 12 to 15 minutes after we ordered. This makes me think the food is not freshly made. I would be happier waiting for my food. I ordered the penne alla gigi. The portion was huge!!! The flavor tasted really off. I absolutely love Italian food and am usually pretty forgiving if the food is not "amazing" The sauce was not good on this dish. I have never tasted anything like it.. The pancetta did not have much flavor. I sampled the chicken parmigiana and the spaghetti. The chicken parmesan was pretty good. It was cheesy. The sauce for the spaghetti was mediocre. I forgot to mention both dishes came out really hot which was appreciated. I ordered the limoncello cake and this was phenomenal. I thought it looked too yellow when it was placed in front of me. The taste was so delicious. It was not overly sweet, just perfect. I loved the whipped cream. My friend ordered the Ice Cream Sunday which is vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup. I sampled this too and it was ok, nothing special. Without the excellent service, views and just beauty of the restaurant this would have been 2 stars. My visit ended on the right note with the limoncello cake. In reality, I just wanted a delicious meal. I did not receive that and I did leave mostly disappointed. :(

If you've never been, use a GPS app and know it's in a little industrial park right off 15th in Pompano (east of Dixie). You'll probably see orn of their delivery truck in the parking lot. A lovely woman welcomed us inside. There, we found a small shop with pastas, sauces, and a lovely assortment of Italian cookies. She showed us a price list with their cheese options. We settled on the burrata, cherry size mozzarella balls, and fresh buffalo mozzarella. The cheese is delicious and so fresh. It is just like the amazing cheese you can get at fine shops in Italy. What a gem we have this cheese maker in Pompano! Our visit was brief as sadly they do not provide a tour like they did years ago. But i will be back more frequently moving forward, especially to replicate some amazing dishes I've had with burrata lately.

The restaurant is located in a corner with plenty of parking around. Its in a shopping plaza. The inside feels spacious because of the high ceiling. The tables are black and they had chalk to draw on them. That was cool and entertaining lol. I ordered the garlic knots, fries stromboli, and the delicious once had parmesan chicken wings. Iliked the garlic knots. The stromboli was delicious and had a this little crispy crust on top. I don't know if that usually but it gave it a little something else. The seasonings were on point. Those fries were goood. The wings, the main reason I came, tasted a little different then I remembered. They had no flavor and no seasoning. They were fried crunchy chicken. Not to fear on the table there was parmesan, salt and Italian spices. It didn't taste the same but it worked. What I liked about the wings was that they were moist and crunchy. They had the right texture but today not flavor. I was disappointed and not a fan of that pink sauce. I came on a bad time. A college football game was on and the restaurant was flooded with online orders which made table and kitchen slow. I was dedicated to the cause of trying those delicious chicken wings and so I stayed, but I watched other customers treating to cancel their order because of the long wait.

Food was good…read more Server was great except did not tell us that a Caesar over house salad was an up charge - even after being asked if we could substitute. ($4.00!) No prices given for any of the specials either. May try again but make an earlier reservation and not go early! The restaurant should manage reservations better or give customers a window on their time when it's made - like most restaurants do. We had plans after dinner and were super late because of their delay.

Every dish I've had has been absolutely wonderful -- the kind of food that reminds you what Italian cooking is supposed to taste like.

You don't feel like just another table -- you feel taken care of from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. And the atmosphere is just lovely. Warm, ambient, and the perfect setting for a relaxed dinner whether you're on a date or just treating yourself to a good meal. Wilton Manors is lucky to have this place. Highly recommend.

From a real Italian mamma cooking in the kitchen to the beautiful Frederica running the floor. The food was perfect. The trio of meatballs was exquisite with three kinds of sauces.

Don't tell too many people about this or it will be mobbed.
