    Cheese pizza slice and garlic sticks
    Patricia G.

    Came to Donna Sarah on a Saturday evening with no reservation. We initially were turned away, they didnt even give a wait time, just flat out said they had no seating, but then a few seconds later a waitress said she could seat us and we were seated at one of the tables outside (no other tables outside were taken). Definitely make a reservation before coming here to be safe. It's a small place, uncomfortably small, especially when every table is filled up, youre pretty much sitting shoulder to shoulder with a stranger, so just keep that in mind. We ordered garlic sticks, a white pizza with mushrooms, a slice of cheese pizza and the pasta ala vodka. It took 20 minutes from the time we were seated outside before someone came and took our order. We knew they were very busy and were nice enough to seat us anyways, so we couldn't really complain. The food took some time to come out as well, but again, to be expected. They brought out fresh bread and a salad. The garlic sticks were incredible. Very fresh and soft, perfect amount of garlic, cheese and butter/oil. The pizza slice was a good size, pretty standard. Was nice and crispy and heated well. The pasta ala vodka was unlike anything I had before. Was very smokey (which the waitress did say it was), very robust and complex flavors compared to a standard ala vodka, was a pleasant surprise. Was also a nice big portion enough to split between two people, with perfectly al dente pasta. The white pizza was excellent. Very cheesy, the mushrooms added a nice earthy balance, the crust was delightful and it wasn't wet or soggy like other white pizza I've had in the past. Unfortunately, we didnt get refills because we weren't checked on at all throughout the meal, probably because we were seated outside. While I thoroughly enjoyed the food, I really wish they would've stuck with their original decision to turn us away. This probably could've been a 5 star experience, and the servers were really nice, but unfortunately because we were seated outside, it was like we didnt exist. With all we ordered, plus 3 fountain drinks and a capri sun, the total came to $71.05. As I mentioned, the food was great, however, the service was lacking. If youre going to go above and beyond (which we appreciated!) to accommodate us, despite not having a reservation, then treat us the same as all the other patrons who were checked-in on and received refills throughout their meal. While the quality of the food justified the price of the meal, it wasn't the best experience. I would be back to try other menu items, but learn from my mistakes. Will come on a weekday instead of a weekend, and make a reservation ahead of time.

    Wow! This restaurant is so, so delicious. I came here with Andrea B and Nola F for lunch today. We had a great time!! I had heard good things about this restaurant plus Andrea said it was good. So we had to go. I knew I wanted the chicken marsala in advance based off the pictures from others on Yelp. Andrea ordered it too and we both loved it! The sauce is truly incredible. They gave so much chicken. The side of pasta was good, but could have used more sauce. I absolutely loved Mom (Nola's) side of pasta. The sauce is homemade and was delectable. I will be thinking of that pasta for a while. I also took some bites of her chicken parm. This was very good but I prefer my chicken marsala. But I prefer her pasta. But the flavors don't really go together. Confusing... The side salad was good. The balsamic dressing was delicious, but there wasn't much of it. The salad was also kind of small. However, I absolutely love salads and cannot eat enough of them so maybe I am a bad judge. The bread that was for the table, ot maybe just Andrea and I was forgettable. It was somewhat burned and did not have much flavor. We ordered zeppoles and Sarah brought about 1,000 of them haha..and I think I ate about half.:( They are so, so good. Highly recommend this restaurant. I need to come back soon.

    I am very happy to have eaten at this restaurant. The food was excellent. I ordered a lunch special but my friend Andrea told me they entree is the same size as the dinner portion. I did miss a salad. However, there was more than enough food to eat. So much I took home quite a bit. My chicken parmesan was so delicious. The sauce was very flavorful and the cheese was outstanding. I really enjoyed the rigatoni with fresh marinara sauce. It had some garlic but was not too much for me. They use the same sauce for the chicken parmesan and the rigatoni. Everything is fresh. The garlic bread was also very good. We ordered zeppoles for dessert. I really liked these because they were not overly sweet. We were given a huge portion. Sarah, one of the owners is pleasant and accommodating. This is a great neighborhood restaurant. Even if you don't live nearby, I recommend coming here because the food is that good.

    Amazing food and service was spot on. The restaurant is just delish. I look forward to coming back very soon. The restaurant is run by a family and they are all wonderful and so sweet.

    We've been here many times but hadn't visited in a while, so it was great to be back. I ordered the chicken hoagie (no cheese) along with a side of rigatoni and sauce--everything was so good and full of flavor. One of the best parts of coming here is how welcoming the owners always are. Donna served us, and Philippe was in the kitchen cooking. They truly make you feel at home. The restaurant has been redecorated since my last visit, with cute Italian pictures and nice music that adds to the cozy atmosphere. Overall, a very pleasant experience, and we'll definitely be back.

    Always delicious !! Great service, beautiful atmosphere. Always a joy to visit! They make everything fresh! Including the bread! This place is a must visit!

    An amazing new place in Davie that everyone needs to learn about. This family owned mom, pop and son restaurant is the former Jersey John's. French owned Italian food that has some fusion was something I didn't know I loved until I ate here. I will say, getting the bad out of the way first, is something I need to do. The wait times here are insane, it will take you some time to get food and your order because everything is cooked by one or two people, the husband and someone else. The bread that is delivered to the table was phenomenal and the cheese was heavenly as well. The bread had a nice crunch to it and was still soft on the inside. We ordered the calamari and I have never had such a flavorful dish. The breading was wonderful with the right amount of crunch to it and the homemade marinara sauce was divine as well, without being to tomato forward. The garlic sticks appetizer was amazing and the amount of garlic on the bread was wonderful! For my main dish, I got the chicken francese. This was a homerun. I have never had better francese in my life! The lemon was superb and was the right amount of tanginess. It had a nice consistency to it and paired well with the chicken. The chicken was also very good and a generous portion! The pasta bed it came on also had much of the sauce on it which was amazing as well! I will say though the amount of time it took to get the food is something that may make or break this place for most people, but scratch made food, I was okay with it. If you come on a Friday or Saturday night, call ahead for reservations or you may not get it, that's how small and busy this place gets!

    Fettuccini Alfredo
    Carol R.

    I couldn't wait to try this place after reading so much about it. So, my cousin-in-law and I went there for lunch. It's in a strip mall with plenty of parking. It's a very small eatery with lovely checkered tablecloths and great service. While I opted for the chicken marsala, my favorite non-dairy Italian dish, my cousin-in-law ordered the fettuccine Alfredo without meat. The latter was tasty and very cheesy. (I did try a small bite.) The lunch special came with a small, soft garlic loaf. My dinner entree came with a small salad (no raw onions please) with lettuce, raw peppers (had to pick them out), and tomatoes. The balsamic dressing was tasty but there was so little of it I was practically eating a dry salad. I guess I should have asked for more dressing. My entree came with three large pieces of what looked like chicken breast cutlet and it was laden with mushrooms. I was greeted with blandness after taking my first bite of the chicken. I had to ask for salt and pepper and was told by the server that they don't salt their food as she handed me a platter of spices. (It is easier to add salt than remove it.) The sauce on the marsala was good but looked very white. I was enjoying it until I asked the server if it contained milk. (I am lactose-intolerant.) "Oh no, " she said. Then added, "it's French style marsala made with cream." I had to stop eating my meal and took the rest home for my hubby. I have eaten marsala in a ton of places and different countries and I have never had it with cream. (Nor did I think I would have to note my lactose-intolerance when ordering it.) There is a big sign that says "Under New Management," so I don't know if the cuisine others were raving about was this French Italian one, or the prior owners. Unfortunately, for me, there isn't much left on their menu that I can eat if I can't have a lactose-free marsala meal. My dinner entree with tax and tip was a little more than $28. My cousin-in-law paid about $19 for her meatless lunch special, including tax and tip.

    Hello everyone! Well I was in the area and decided to stop by again and I had a craving for some awesome Italian food and let me tell you that Donna Sarah never disappoints! You really cannot beat the quality of the food, excellent and courteous service they provide. Philippe and Sarah really do a great job of making you feel at home and you have to love Sal who is cooking up some awesome pizzas as well. Ambiance is awesome as well as the vibe of the restaurant really lends itself to kicking back, relaxing and enjoying your meal. Everything is very clean and from what I can tell the kitchen is spotless. On this occasion I had the Chicken Parmigiana lunch special again but I am pretty sure that the everything else on the menu has to be great as well. Will make a point of trying something new on my next visit. So if you are in the area feel free to check them out as I am sure you are going to enjoy the food and service. Wishing you all a great day / evening. Enjoy and Bon Appétit m'es amis!

    I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt and four stars. It's a very small place, and they were very accommodating. They let change our reservation from two people to four people at the last minute. The biggest problem with this place is the service. It's very slow. As for the food is enjoyed what I had. We started with some calamari, it was definitely different from other places. It seemed like it was cut into pieces of steak as opposed to rings and tentacles. It was good. I had lasagna, I enjoyed it. My friend had mushrooms soup and chicken marsela. He also really enjoyed both. His daughter just had pasta and really liked it. Now didn't like what she ordered. It was chicken parmesan ala vodka. She didn't like that ala vodka sauce. She said it was loaded with onions and very sweet. We skipped out on dessert.

    Husband (Philippe) and wife (Sarah) from France recently took ownership of this pizzeria and was elated by their hospitality and cleanliness of the restaurant. They were diligently making and packaging several pizzas for delivery as we chatted. Sarah cut out an enormous slice of cheese pizza right from the oven. The slice was hot gooey cheesey and had just the right amount of garlic. They are currently running a superbowl meal deal: 3 pizzas 1 topping, 30 wings and 1 bottle of soda for $100.00 and will deliver in the immediate area. The bathroom was clean with wood panel flooring and white tile walls.

    CHICKEN PARMIGIANA
    Stephanie R.

    The hype is real. Thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Seriously the BEST chicken masala that I've ever had!!! The chicken parm was served from the pan hot out of the oven. The desserts looked amazing but we were too full to partake. Definitely next time. The service was impeccable and the owners introduced themselves to everyone. One downside is there is a surcharge for using a CC.

    CHICKEN PARM w/ Vodka sauce

    On our pre-Valentine dinner, my wife and I tried Donna Sarah and were so impressed. It is a quaint restaurant with outdoor seating. On this night in S.FL. It was perfect. As we walked through the restaurant all the dishes looked amazing. Especially the special, chicken parmigiana with Vodka sauce. The chef came out to greet us. We ordered the Chicken Parm special and a the carbonara. The chef comes out with the pan and plates right in front of you. Everyone who waited on us was extremely key pleasant and happy! We really enjoyed this local restaurant and highly recommend it. The prices were reasonable and the food was amazing.

We got the eggplant parm, lasagna, vodka pasta, and the cannelloni. The lasagna was GREAT. The pastas all had a good flavor and portion as well.

I'll definitely be going back.
