Sure the food at Florentina's is great and the atmosphere is warm and inviting, but the service is world class. Jeronica truly makes my parents' day better and it is easy to see why. Thank you so much! If you find yourself in Branson and want the best waitress in the country, you need to go to Florentina's and sit in Jeronica's section.

I was driving thru. Ordered over the phone to pickup. The custom pizza roll (with sausage,…read morepepperoni, green peppers, and black olives) was amazing. I thought I would eat only a portion of it, but it was so delicious, I ate the whole thing. Also ordered a cannoli (wish id gotten the tiramisu). Cannoli was just ok.

There was an old guy singing old karaoke country songs which added to the fun/weird atmosphere. Upstairs they have a small arcade that while cool, had about half the machines were broken. The service was really poor. Our waitress didn't just seem like it was her first job it seemed like it was the first time out of her house. We had been sitting for 10 minutes while she walked by 5 times before she even acknowledged us to say she'd be with us soon. She was confused when my wife ordered a Malbec, couldn't provide a single bit of information about the drink special, and didn't understand when I asked for a Peroni. You know, the standard Italian pilsner. One of the 8 beers ON THE MENU. The food is just ok. It was fine. It's close to Olive Garden. You're not gonna find granma's 100 year recipe here, standard spaghetti and meatballs which did their job well. We got the triperfecta the eggplant parm and the chicken parm and while they did not come out hot, everything tasted fine. The big draw here is the ambiance. The owner has a gold mine if they took some time to train wait staff and added some passion in the kitchen. I will also add that at some point in our meal someone started tossing warm rolls to patrons and that was a lot of fun.

I was disappointed with my experience. The service was excellent--Rachel was attentive, friendly,…read moreand did a great job taking care of us. Unfortunately, the food did not meet my expectations. I found it to be bland and lacking the variety of pasta options that I've come to expect from Italian restaurants. Compared to other local Italian restaurants we enjoy, the menu felt limited and the flavors were not particularly memorable. As a first-time visitor, I also found the restaurant a bit confusing when we arrived. We were immediately asked whether we wanted to attend a show rather than being directed to seating or given an explanation of how the restaurant operates. It seemed like there was an assumption that guests already understood the concept. A brief welcome and explanation for newcomers would have been helpful. While others may enjoy the experience, the food simply wasn't for me, and I would likely choose a different restaurant next time.

This visit, the…read morefood was back to being good - BUT, this place is pricing their stuff to the moon for what you get. A large meat pizza: $43.25. And let me tell you, the pizza is only a 14"....not that deep. I don't mind paying...but this is so out of line compared to what you get. Even a straight pepperoni or sausage pizza..you're paying plenty for what you get. Good taste...but dang have they continued to raise the prices. Salad for 2: $20.75 and the salad is smaller than it ever used to be. Toppings aren't as plentiful as they used to be. And the dressing...the salad didn't have squat. And I paid 2.50 more to get a couple of sides of more dressing....and they're coming in the small plastic ramekin. Gee, give me a break with the nickel and dime junk...when you're already charging $21 for the salad. I have always loved this place. And I can pay whatever....but out of principle...I won't for this place anymore. Sad...as I'm from Chicago and love what this place offered in the past. But now...I suggest Pizza by the Chef in Hollister. Want a meat pizza...Hercules at that place is awesome.

The others had eggplant parmesan and said it was the best they had ever eaten. One ate Italian nachos and did not care for it, but she's often times disappointed with what she orders in restaurants. The bread sticks were right out of the oven and excellent. The salads were fresh and very good. The dressing was outstanding and one person in our group bought a big bottle of it to take home. The birthday ladies were gifted a dessert. We all tasted the amazing lemon cake and Tiramisu and both were delicious beyond words. Parking is right out front with easy access. Reservations are recommended. We ate early at 4pm when they opened on a weekday. Highly-recommend it, if you're one that dines early. They offer a separate room for big groups. I'll rate Piccolo's as the best dining experience in the Ozarks!
