Brosefs, (and brosephines), I wanted to take a picture, but the family and I crushed the pizzas before I realized my review here would be lacking :(. Anyway, service was super quick and easy, the ambiance was chill, and it was easy to get in and out of. We got the Al Capone pizza (red sauce) as well as the Da Matteo (white sauce). Both were amazing, and I'd recommend the white sauce one more. Don't hesitate on this place! If you want legitimate and real authentic Italian (not Americanized Italian), check this place out! Absolutely will be back next time we are in the area.

There was a large tent set up for ourdoor seating, and the weather was mild this evening. Several servers passed by and assured us that someone will be with us. After a few short moments, someone arrived and took us and another party to the back, another series of turns, into a secluded wing near the kitchen. The waiter, Marlon P., was very nice, and explained the specials, one of which we ordered: the Muffuletta Baked Rigatoni. He said it was like a deconstructed Muffuletta sandwich (which I didn't get to try in New Orleans). I ate the angel hair with vito's il diavolo sauce with sausage. Also ordered was a lasagna and Nico's Greek salad. The meals were delicious, especially the baked Muffultta Rigatoni! I was impressed by the food, and the area we sat in was decorated nicely! Much better than sitting in a tent in the front of the restaurnt.

This year there was just a party of 6 of us so it was easier to give a food review. Everyone had wonderful meals that consisted of Linguine & Mussels, Tom's Pasta, Linguine $ Shrimp, and three of the bacon wrapped tenderloins with squash risotto which was a special for the night. A cannoli was ordered to go. Everyone reported that their meals were delicious. The three of us who had the tenderloin special were amazed and we agreed that it was just as good as what you get at a Ruth Chris Steakhouse but half the price. The steaks were topped with a screwer of 3 perfectly prepared steak and topped with an onion bourbon sauce. The squash risotto was perfectly prepared also. The cannoli was delicious, not too sweet. Our waiter was awesome and I wished we had gotten his name. He packed up all our leftovers and was knowledgeable about questions we had on the menu. He has great customer service skills. We look forward to visiting this restaurant again. They don't open until 5 pm Tuesday-Saturday. We visit the area 4-5 months a year so are limited to our visits. Wish they were open for lunches.

We felt very under dressed for this restaurant but, you wouldn't know it based on how we were treated. We were kindly greeted at the door and offered a table right away. We opted to sit at the bar because we were in a hurry wanted to place a to-go order for a pizza. Our bartender was very kind and accommodating, He answered all of our questions and made recommendations. All of the pizza offerings looked fantastic. We settled on the Calzone Genovese, even though this was a calzone there was no problem making it into a pizza. The wood fire pizza oven was in the center of the restaurant, so we were able to watch them make our pizza. It had ricotta cheese, mushrooms, pesto, and caramelized onions. It was very good and a nice change from a pizza with classic red sauce. The pizza crust had a good amount of char on the bottom with just the right amount of thickness. I would recommend Mimmo's to anyone and will definitely return if I am ever back in Destin.

Man, these are some of the best garlic rolls I've ever had. They were hot, buttery and so light all at the same time. We then ordered the Gorgonzola pizza. It came with grilled chicken and onions with no sauce. We added pesto sauce and wow. The pizza was so delicious and had so much flavor. Krisztian then brought us out the best cheesecake I've ever had period! Everything about this dessert was screaming fresh and homemade. The crust was so buttery and the cheesecake had the right amount of sweetness. Also, they have happy hour 7 days a week!!!!! Their happy hour menu is outrageous and has something for everyone.
