Great food and local family business hospitality. Both the lasagna and seafood pasta were excellent. Authentic Italian and very friendly owners. Don't miss it! read more

Best authentic Italian food, best service, loved loved this restaurant. 2 thumbs up way high.

I must have driven by this restaurant hundreds of times without knowing it was there. It's a small restaurant near Mizner Park that's easy to miss but nice to find. Giuseppe's is a modest, cozy and unpretentious restaurant that is the literal definition of a "mom and pop" as the owners were the server and the chef - and both were very nice. We tried several items and enjoyed them all. A gnocchi dish with shrimp was good as was a chicken special over pasta. It's always good to support small local businesses and because of that I'll be back. Well that and the good food. read more

Chef Domenico at Giuseppe's Cafe prepared several outstanding dishes for us yesterday: meatballs with marinara sauce, chicken piccatta, sausage and brocoli rabe, chicken pizzaiola. Best catering menu - everything was amazing. Thank you so much Chef! Whole family enjoyed it. read more

What a gem. Every single aspect of this place was 5 stars from service, simple ambiance, intimate environment, cute and bubbly owners, amazing seafood pasta, and perfect dessert. This is where you go to have pasta that focuses on the seafood and had a very light sauce to not fill you up or overpower the fresh seafood taste. We ended up just letting the owner make two pastas for us however he wanted because we immediately had so much trust in him. I'll go back to the hyatt next door for work specifically to eat here again! read more

The food was absolutely incredible, we saw the many reviews and felt we had to go here. The experience is amazing, the kitchen is run by a single chef and the nicest woman runs the front. A very personal/intimate dining experience. Everything was so fresh and cooked to order. It makes me wish we lived in the area to experience it again and again! I have never written a review for a place on yelp but I felt I had to for this place it was just that amazing. read more

This meal is the best dining experience me and my family have ever had. The food and service was INCREDIBLE!!!!! The owners made all food fresh and treated my family and me like their own family. It was such a good experience, we all wrote our own reviews because we felt one five star review was not enough! My sister asked for a business card, and the owner said they don't have them, but after my sister mentioned she collects them pulled their only, old business card off the coffee maker, removed the tape, and gave it to her! I made a Yelp account so I could post this review!! read more

What a find! Simply amazing. Intimate setting, everything is fresh and made to order. Husband and wife do all the cooking & they make you feel like your home. Portions are perfect. We had an antipasto with the freshest mozzarella I have ever had. Then a risotto with lobster that was just to die for. Don't miss this little gem. We will be back! Fyi....you can bring your own wine or champagne ! read more

Another fabulous meal at Giuseppe's. If you looking for a friendly place to have real Italian food, this is wonderful place in Boca Raton.

Went to Giuseppe's Cafe for a birthday dinner for my husband and they were very accommodating and sweet couple. Not only were they sweet but the food was super authentic, flavorful, and fresh! I felt like I was eating at an Italian family's home- not a restaurant- if you want AUTHENTIC Italian- go to Giuseppe's! read more

Always a great meal. Customer service is by far the best. Ambiance having a great meal at home with your own private chef.

Awesome tasting authentic Italian food, phenomenal absolutely phenomenal!! The service was great and the coffee was as promised. This is a hidden gem that gives you the ambiance and feels of being actually in Italy, exporting you to Italy without the airfare. read more

Such a WONDERFUL find. Visiting from Canada/Texas/Japan and found Giuseppe's Cafe' - decided to have dinner. They're Soooooo nice and welcoming. It's a slice of Italy here in Boca.

Enjoyed a fabulous "frutta di mare" over spaghetti at Giuseppes Cafe last evening. The husband and wife owners could not be more charming and accommodating. The seafood was fresh and cooked to perfection. If you are so inclined you can bring your own bottle of wine. The space is small and intimate and the food is always fresh and beautifully prepared. It is a small venue and I would recommend calling for a reservation in advance. read more

First off, BYOB. They do not serve alcohol but encourage guests to bring their own. Second. Do not judge a book by its cover. The pictures online and the impression driving by make the restaurant look more like a deli than a nice Italian Trattoria. They're deceptive. It's lovely inside and very comfortable. Third. Forget all that and just come for the food. It's all you need to know. If you want good food, come to Giuseppe's. Its out of this world! That's it. read more

This place is one of a kind. The food is superb and the husband/wife owners who cook and serve the food are so personable. It honestly felt like I was eating at their home as a guest. This was my second time there and it was just as good (if not better) than the first time. If you told me I was at a small cafe/restaurant in Italy I would believe you. Please support this small amazing business, they deserve it far and away before any of the larger chains in the area. We will be back a million times! read more

Awesome fresh food here!! I had a shrimp scampi yesterday for lunch here, I was dreaming about the dish last night , I am not kidding! I came back here again for lunch for the same dish, but ordered the dinner portion, I finished it ! Lol SO YUMMY!!! read more

This small family run/owned restaurant in Boca is a keeper. It fronts right into us 1 (Federal Hwy) so just drive around the corner and park behind it. You can walk in the back doorway which is marked. It only has 6 tables plus the gelato and pastry cases and a counter. Both the owner and his wife are hands on. After our lunch, we had a nice chat. They are both from Bari, Italy. The owner used to captain a fishing boat in Italy so if you're thinking about ordering fish, do so. He only orders small amounts each day -- fresh from the market. So when it runs out, that's it. We each had an order of the soup of the day -- minestrone. It had lots of vegetables in a tomato based broth. Adding grated cheese helped jazz it up. Nice size bowl. Then we shared a sandwich -- their "Milano". This has smoked salmon, capers, tomatoes, artichoke hearts with a seasoned mayo on a pressed warm crusty ciabatta bread. Very good. You could tell the salmon was house cured which was confirmed when we asked about it later (heard the recipe). They have a case of homemade cakes and pastries. I only tried one plain cookie (Dr on Monday) but there were a number of intriguing options plus gelato. I probably wouldn't order soup again as I definitely want to try some of their other sandwiches or maybe their antipasto salad. A separate menu of specials lists pastas, fish, etc. which would make a nice dinner option. And the tortellini with pesto or the branzino filet may be calling my name in future... read more

This family owned restaurant was exceptional!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! The food was absolutely delicious and truly authentic Italian! We will certainly be returning over and over again! This place will treat you like family and provide you with an experience that is unheard-of nowadays. The hospitality the chef and his wife Victoria provide is out of this world. HIGHLY RECOMMEND dining at Guiseppes Cafe! Thank you Guiseppes Cafe for the wonderful experience of warm hospitality, Italian cuisine, and education about Italian culture! read more

The food was authentic Italian and delicious. Will definitely go back and will recommend it to my friends and family.

I moved to Delray less than a year ago and I've been searching for a great italian restaurant since then. Most places around me are expensive fine dining with an Italian flare at best, or at worst about as authentic as an Olive Garden in Alabama. I have finally found my mecca. This place hit all of the wickets. Family owned, cozy, and food oriented. I had a delicious cappuccino and then the lunch menu's chicken piccata. The portioning was perfect and the price was amazing for what I got. It's the kind of place I want to bring all of my friends, but at the same time I want it all for myself. I want to try everything here, I feel great even hours after eating here. When I eat bad Italian I feel like a bag of smashed garbage after. I would have taken a "before" picture of my meal but...after one bite I blacked out and it disappeared. Also, apparently for dinner you gotta make a reservation, so keep that in mind. read more

A MUST TRY! Definitely recommend calling for a reservation if you are in the area. The food and service are top notch and everything is fresh and authentic Italian. All the dishes in our party were served hot, fresh and tasted excellent! Highly recommend the bruschetta appetizer, best I've ever had. This is a great place to try something you probably haven't had before and DO NOT skip dessert! The Limoncello dessert is out of this world delicious and the cannoli is incredible. The owners are so warm and inviting and you can tell they truly love sharing their culture and food with you. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

Absolutely loved it! Everything was delicious! We had the Burrata appetizer, and the Spaghetti Amatriciana and the Gnocchi Sorrento.

A hidden gem in Boca. Food and service excellent. Pasta was al dente with a terrific sauce. Everything is homemade. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend. read more

I am correcting my old review. This tiny restaurant is a jewel of the cuisine of Bari in Puglia. My wife and I came in with a bottle of our own wine (no corkage fee) and ordered a salad and then a pasta with fresh tuna ragu and then the grouper special. Each was shared between us and each as a separate course. A truly magnificent meal. Not the usual fare. We will be back. read more

The folks who own this place are legit Italian. It's a gelateria that doubles as a ristorante. My lasagna was a marinara lagoon. I expected the Lady of the Sauce Lake to hold aloft Excalibur, or at least a breadstick. The taste of the sauce? Wow. Simple. Wonderful. Lasagnas are all about rich layers of contrast in flavors and textures fusing. It didn't happen here. Less sauce, a bit better construction and bake would have made a big difference. The cheese on top was underwhelming and needed a bit more melt to get to that baked brown rather than an undercooked Kraft mural. Pazienza. We weren't in a rush. Don't rush the prep. No beer or wine? Perche?! Service was good, and they really wanted to please us. We were the only ones in the restaurant and they must have come back about 10 times to ask us if it was okay. It went from passion to feeling a bit awkward and needy. Less is more there too. I came because Yelpers whose reviews that I enjoy had a great meal here. I probably ordered the wrong thing. As you can see from the comments from the owner below, they are both very desirous of excellence, which you have to applaud them for, and maybe missing the customer experience just a bit. I was there to have dinner with my son who I see about two times a year, and talk. While I might be one of the few people who will engage a restauranteur, manager and/or chef to have a discussion about a bad experience, I generally don't engage for a good, not great one, especially when I'm busy with other things. Signore, legga la recensione, impara da essa, e pregga i vostre ospiti. A lamentarsi che non ha avuto una revisione della vostra cucina è troppo. read more

The food is good, the service is unbeatable.

I needed to escape the pretense of Boca Raton without actually leaving. If you are in need of an excellent meal and don't need to impress anyone other than yourself, then visit Giuseppe's. This is a bare bones operation that serves surprisingly good food, and doesn't charge a fortune. I like fresh seafood served in light sauce's. Giuseppe's serves very fresh seafood that is properly cooked, and the chef doesn't overdo it with herb's or garlic. Byob is a plus. I can't wait to return. read more

Everything was very good! The Carpaccio was excellent & a generous portion. The two pasta dishes were right on & the service meticulous. They need to do more advertising so they can do specials.

We got takeout from this restaurant a few weeks back but left on a trip and forgot to write this review. Yelp's ordering platform did not provide the owner with my desired pickup time which was 5:30pm. I placed my order at around 2 pm and was surprised when the owner called me and told me my order was ready 30 minutes later. I explained what had happened and the owner was so gracious and kind about it. He didn't penalize me for the issue and dealt directly with yelp. When my husband showed up at 5:30, the owner told him that he had remade our order because he is so dedicated to fresh and delicious food. I had told him he didn't need to remake it, he could just pop it in the fridge and I could reheat it for dinner but he just wasn't having that - he wanted me to have a delicious meal and we did. We got the items pictured below for a romantic picnic at home and I cannot rave enough about the quality of ingredients which were superb, the presentation which was incredibly appetizing, specially considering this was takeout! And the sauce. Oh my god the sauce was impeccable! Just like in Italy! The tiramisu was also delightful! I cannot wait to go back here and enjoy the delicious decadent food again. The antipasto platter with the fresh loaf of bread was so mouthwatering. The chicken Parmesan was tender and perfectly cooked. The pasta was clearly made from scratch. You cannot go wrong with this place! read more

This is a very quaint place that you can call ahead and tell them what you want and he makes it fresh. I went with my girlfriend and she had the lobster (you can pick out which lobster you want) and I had the scallops. The risotto was done to perfection and the scallops were amazing. The chef did a very light breading on the top and the sauce that came with them was amazing. I realize a lot of people may not love scallops due to the grittiness, but these were probably the cleanest tasting ones I have had. Not pictured, but we also had a salad with the freshest burrata cheese I have ever had. Just as an FYI, the place is BYOB (no corking fee) and I think the price of our meals was quite reasonable for what we got. read more
