The high rating is for excellent customer service. The food was also quite tasty. We ordered from the Appetizer section and shared with a Pita Greek Salad. Yummy!!!! It was close to our event and I am so glad we chose Rotelli. read more

Just got food from this spot for the first time and me and my wife were extremly happy with the quality and taste of the food. Cheese calzone was super delicious and my wife really enjoyed her fettuccine alfredo. Yummy. read more

I called and ordered 4 hero sandwiches for myself and 3 friends. This was the 2nd delivery order to my address today. There was no issue on the afternoon order. I have been ordering from here for a few years and never had a problem until today. Only 3 hero sandwiches were delivered and delivered cold. The French fries were soft and soggy as well. It took almost an hour and 20 to get the order delivered. Items arrived while I was on the phone calling them to ask why the order was so late. I was on hold. Driver didn't speak English and I sent the items back. After a while a hostile "manager" spoke to me and said he would do nothing but heat the items up and redeliver the items if I wanted the 3 items. I said I would need 4 but he was unresponsive, rude and escalated the tension to which I said I do not want any items to credit my account. I will have the charge disputed through my bank as he would not issue a credit. They robbed me of my money not having the proper order delivered as we received no food, and they wouldn't issue a credit. Bad business. I am contemplating filing a theft of service police report on the business if I fail to get my credit from my bank. read more

My wife and I had the displeasure of spending money at this establishment on 1/13/23. Firstly no bread was offered to us but that's not even the begining of how bad the food was! Secondly I ordered the Chicken Parm which had hardly any sauce on it and my wife ordered a small pizza which had whole tomato slices as if we where ordering a hero. Lasty we are from the north and know what real Italian food is and this not it, please save your money and go somewhere else!! read more

Had just finished visiting some friends in the area and was looking for an Italian place near by since we couldn't eat meat that day because of lent so I came across this place on yelp. It looked like the perfect cozy date night spot located in a shopping plaza with plenty of parking. We arrived and were seated immediately as it was not very packed but there was people, mostly picking up take out. We were in-between what to order as most of their pastas were the same exact price as the lobster ravioli so I went with the lobster. The dishes came with a salad and some garlic rolls. The Caesar salad was delicious and so fresh. Which there was an upcharge for, which our waitress failed to mention to us , noticed when we got the bill came. The garlic rolls however were alright, nothing to ride home about. Same with the pasta dishes, they were good but ive had better. Ive actually never had lobster ravioli paired with tomato sauces, its usually in a white sauce or pink or butter based sauced so that was different . You can tell the tomato sauce is homemade, it had a great flavor to it just not sure I liked it paired with the lobster. For dessert I got a cannoli to go , again it was just ok. Not bad but not the best I've had. The service however was fantastic, our waitress was great she kept checking up on us and focusing on when we needed a refill. But over all Everything was ok. Not terrible at all, but nothing wow'd me either. read more

I eat here all the time and I am always pleased with the food but the service is horrible with the exception of one waitress Shelly who is always courteous and professional and knows me by name. I ordered pizza to be delivered to my job and provided instructions on where to deliver it. For the 3rd time they got it wrong. When I tried to explain this to the manager, he cut me off and told me it came earlier than it was supposed to. I told him that wasn't my issue when he finally allowed me to speak. Then he made excuses about new driver's. I explained this isn't the first time. He just apologized and acted like I was bothering him. I will also be writing a letter to the corporate office detailing all of my previous experiences and why I'm so upset. They need customer service training from wait staff to management. read more

Pretty decent spot for your typical chain style Italian fare. We sometimes order takeout from here since our office is so close and they always get our orders right and the food is good. You can't go terribly wrong with pizza, which I typically get, so while this isn't the best, it's pretty good. They offer good lunch deals too which makes it a good spot for a quick and affordable lunch! read more

I eat here for lunch quite frequently, the lunch specials are amazing. I've tried the chicken francese which comes with rolls and your choice of pasta. The sauce is delicious and the lunch special price is only $10.99. The white pizza is also one of my go to's. They make it with the ricotta under the mozzarella cheese which is nice because it almost gets baked right into the crust. Overall always a good experience here and everything I've tried has been very good. read more

Rotelli - White pizza - Italian Near Me - Tamarac, Florida

This is one of my "go to" casual restaurants. Although I've never actually eaten inside the restaurant, I always order take out or uber eats or door dash. I must order at least 3 times a month. I've tried the pizza (both red and white), eggplant parm sub, several different pastas, calzone and wings. I started out by being obsessed with the white pizza, topped with mushroom, artichokes and spinach. The toppings are fresh and the dough is the right texture. My boyfriend loves there traditional red pizza with meat toppings. Although I have to mention there was one time (And only 1 out of the 20 pizza's I bought in the past year) that I was not happy. The sausage on the pizza tasted old. That was only bad experience. Every other time it was great. I just don't order sausage anymore. LOL. I love the eggplant parm sub. It's a prepared a little bit different than other pizza places I've been to. They don't smother it with a lot of tomato sauce, Just a little - which I like. The the eggplant is prepared just how I like it too, thin slices of eggplant egg battered. It comes with french fries which are ok, it needs salt or something. The calzone is amazing, they stuff if with just the right amount of mozzarella and ricotta and your choice of toppings. It reminds me so much of my NY and NY calzones. I would say the pasta's are my least favorite but they are not bad, to me the pasta was not al dented which I prefer. But again I usually order take out or uber eats or door dash. Perhaps the pasta in the packaging cooks the pasta more during transit. And it wasn't a one time thing, I've ordered pasta dishes on different days. Maybe one day I'll actually try eating in the restaurant. The service seems pretty good from a distance as I observe while waiting for my "to go" orders. I know for sure the servers at the counter are always very nice. read more

Amazing food everytime and the service is incredible. We eat here once a week, pizza, chicken parm, salads, etc. Buffalo chicken pizza is fantastic and the fettuccine alfredo is off the charts. read more

Be Cautions when ordering food to be delivered from Rotelli in Tamarac, FL. We ordered 2 dinners with desert for Mothers Day. We paid in advance, including a 20% tip for the delivery person. We were told that the order would take between 1 hour and 1 1/2 hours to be delivered. We received a call from the restaurant 1 hour and 45 minutes after our original order was placed to inform us that they ran out of the food we had ordered and we were asked to order another dish. Since they took so long to let us know of this problem we cancelled the order. We realized that if we ordered another dish it would take close to another hour before they could deliver that food to us. That is really horrible customer service. Had they called us within 45 minutes we would have been happy to change our order. Obviously you can not trust that you will get you food when you order from Rotelli in Tamarac. read more

I love this local restaurant! Went for dinner with a friend and we had eggplant rollatini, pasta fajole soup and amazing hot garlic rolls. Great wine and wonderful service! They have the best pizza around too. read more

I called to place an order 20 min before closing they stated that they were closed, even though online they were still accepting orders. We placed the order and then I called to make sure that it was at the correct location since they stated that they were closed 5 min prior. The same lady answered the phone and tells me they are closed and has no orders. After giving her the order number and kept trying to convince her the order was placed at the correct location and paid for she put me on hold for a guy to come back and say they can only make pizza since the oven is still on. I didn't order anything else but the pizza! At this point I didn't even want them to make my food. read more

I wish I could rate this restaurant at least 4 stars but I just can't. I brought my car to the shop for an oil change so I walked over to get a bite to eat for lunch. I looked at the menu and decided to order the "world famous" lunch special, which I thought would be very special, because of the name. So I ordered a half ham & cheese sub, salad and slice of pizza. The salad arrived first and was ok. The lettuce was average and the tomato was less than ripe. The sub was also average. Bread was about average and the entire sandwich lacked a variety of ingredients that could have made it great (e.g. oil & vinegar, mayo). The pizza was actually pretty good and made the meal much better at that point. The bathroom was extremely clean but did not have towels to dry my hands. The service was average. Not bad, but nothing spectacular. In order for this to be considered for a 4 or 5 star rating: make small yet inexpensive changes to some of the food items, train staff to be a little more than just professional (fun, personable and exciting would be an improvement), and make sure the bathrooms are fully stocked. read more

I picked up an 2 large pizza's, 1 cheese, and 1 half ham/mushroom and 10 plain chicken wings. The pizzas were a little overcooked and the sauce was tastless along with the ham topping. The wings were okay, nothing to brag about. The staff were very professional and courteos. I have eaten here before and the food was average. read more

This restaurant far surpasses any other nearby dining options in Tamarac and Sunrise. The food looks and taste good, the services is very friendly and efficient. Definitely a great place to come and have lunch or dinner. we will be back soon. read more

Rotelli - Wow, so good! - Italian Near Me - Tamarac, Florida

Excellent food, service and clean restaurant. I had eggplant Parmesan. Penne cooked al dente. They served a very good moscato. Prices reasonable for portion served. I have dinner for tomorrow too from tonight's left overs. Garlic knot rolls served soft, hot and buttered. I will go back. read more

First time I came here for lunch and ordered 2 slices of pizza, they just ran out so they made a fresh new batch. It was delicious. The slices were pretty large and very cheesy. I decided to come back a second time for lunch and ordered the same thing, I did have to wait a little bit longer but not a biggie. The pizza slices were much smaller but still big enough to fill you up and it was kind of cold. The service wasn't so good, I never got my garlic knots or any extra napkins and she never came by for refills of drinks The prices aren't bad. read more

I travel across this country always looking for "authentic" Italian food but have come to realize you will not find any but in Major Cities across this country. Being an Italian citizen who lived in the North East it gets more and more disappointing to hear/see people say Wonderful Italian food or Real Italian Food when its NOT. Rotelli is one of these: First when it comes to the Menu 1. the wine menu was old and when I asked for a certain one none of them were on the menu... Had to walk over to the bar to look at the bottles. 2. The wine selection overall for an Italian restaurant was very poor.. The lowest end Chianti and an Italian blend... REALLY? 3. The Menu- It had Tilapia on it? The cheapest and poorest fish there is. If your Italian you do Branzino (Sea Bass), It had Carbonara.. WITH NO Egg!! Just Creme.. There is NO creme in Carbonara. They had a bunch of other NON Italian Dishes or attempts at Italian dishes. IE: Chicken Parm. Not Italian either but as an American dish can be delicious. 4. The food we ordered.. The Arancini was massive and a ball of bread crumbs. When you make Arancini they are smaller and usually served as a pair and with peas and some filling of rice. (Not good). I never get meatballs in a restaurant but my friend who I just came back from Italy with the previous week wanted them. The meatballs were not edible. Just a low grade of meat, flavorless and hard. When you make meatballs you need 85% meat and you need to have bread in them to soften them. They were awful. The angel hair pasta dish i got with "white wine" with artichokes was a disgrace. Who puts CANNED/Manufactured artichokes in a pasta dish? You do real fresh artichokes or don't do it. Just lazy cooking there... The pasta was not al dente and mush. The dish was $17 for a bowl of mushy pasta and jar artichokes. Just an awful dish. My buddy got the Chicken parmesan. I believe it was just Mozzarella they make the pizza with on top of it.. (Not Parmesan). The chicken was too thick (Should be filetted and pounded out), cheese as I stated not good, the sauce was sweet but hardly any on the chicken at all. (Dry). .. To top it off this usually happens when the owners are not Italian and don't understand the real recipes and take from others. They need to decide to be an Italian restaurant or not. I know its Florida in the middle of no where but this was poor ingredients, poor wine, poor execution and most of all poor recipes. I must say the night was made more pleasant because of our server Tara. read more

Update: Eggplant parmesan wasn't baked. Cheese was just melted (barely) on top. Who knows, it might have been microwaved! Marinara was watery and tasteless. The seared salmon arraba would have been tasty had they not drowned it in some mystery cream sauce. This place has terrible service. At the end of taking my phone order left me on hold for 7 minutes. She comes back and made me start all over again. When I paid I asked for a copy of my credit card receipt after I paid. She didn't know the difference between the order ticket and the credit card receipt. They had to call someone just to get me what she should have done right in the first place. To top it off, she got the order totally wrong, in addition to saying they charge for take out topping cheeses (which are complimentary at their restaurant) read more

Great customer was service. Service picked up as we sat down and more staff came to the tables. The one place that is least expected but, they have the best Pasta Fagioli! They actually make it right. Food was super fresh and tasted great! Great little restaurant for casual dining with family or friends. read more

At 11:59am I placed an order for delivery of one wrap to my workplace across the street. I've never ordered delivery before and have learned my lesson. I've gone in many times with multiple people from work- it will be a long time before that happens again. I was told delivery time of 45-60 minutes, which is understandable since it was lunch time. I told the gentleman who answered the phone that my name was Kate; several people from my office building (with a shared main line #) have ordered there before. Fast forward to 1:21pm. I call inquiring about my order. I was told it was out for delivery. I call at 2pm and am told that it was delivered but that they would remake it. At 210pm they call my workplace and ask for a coworker and that coworker stated they didn't order anything. I called back because I could hear the receptionist say that Rotelli had called. I call back before 215 and the woman who I spoke to at 2 starts to get an attitude that the delivery driver stated he delivered it to someone claiming to be coworker's father on a couch. We don't have a couch in our entire workplace. She gets huffy with me stating that it was delivered...which I do believe it was sent somewhere, but not to me. She says she would start to remake it. I asked what happened to the wrap being remade at 2, and she states that she heard from the driver it was delivered and they tried to call me twice. At this point I said don't bother, I'll just go to yelp. read more

Picked up a cheese calzone tonight.. it was so flat it looked like a stuffed pancake .. The eggplant Parm was bitter,full of seeds and had no flavor.. on The linguini they just pour sauce over the top and the entire bottom is plain.. Definitely not enough to cover all the pasta when you mix it up .. It was an overall bad experience.. read more

Pretty solid restaurant. I enjoyed the lunch specials here: a slice of pizza, cup of soup & a salad... for $6.99! And the food isn't bad! My waiter was polite & checked on us often enough. Overall, the food is classic Italian but clearly a franchise, so you don't get that "we are in my Italian aunt's house for dinner" feel that you crave when you chose a local Italian restaurant. I'd eat here again if it was close by & no one could think of another suggestion. read more

Rotelli - Italian Near Me - Tamarac, Florida

What a pleasant surprise. I had dined at another Rotelli location about a year ago, and vowed to not return, due to the lousy food and worse service. This new location is right near my office, and after a while, you run out of good places to go, so.... I can say that this location has absolutely nothing in common with my previously visited location. I ordered a tilapia dish that was out of this world. The garlic rolls were fantastic. Even the plain 'ol dinner salad with bleu was so fresh and crisp and good. Service was friendly and efficient. I will be back, for sure. read more

What did I just eat?!? I've never written a review so quickly; I literally just finished my meal. (What I could stomach of it anyways.) To be fair, normally the words "chain" and "delivery" when combined with the word Italian do not sit well with me and I know better than to bother. However, I was confined to my home today and had nothing available for dinner and was really craving shrimp scampi. The previous reviews had me hopeful that the meal would at least be edible. Apparently even that expectation was too high. As stated, I ordered the shrimp scampi for myself and went for the $1.99 upgrade from a side garden salad to a side Caesar salad. For my son, I ordered the Grilled Spa Chicken Breast Sandwich with a side of fries. (The menu offers chips as a side, but I was told they don't actually have chips, so fries it was.) Total came to just over $34. Yikes! Well my options were limited so whatever. The only positive about this place--the delivery was lightning fast! I was quoted 45 minutes to an hour; it arrived in 35 minutes. I tipped generously, bringing my $34 bill to $40. As previously stated, I paid $1.99 to upgrade to a Caesar salad; I didn't receive any salad. My shrimp scampi only had 5 shrimp, though rather large. The sauce is what really got me as it was gelatinous. The dish itself didn't smell garlicky, nor any hints of wine or lemon in the aroma. It just smelled like plastic. One bite made it clear--that sauce was laden with starch. Who even puts starch in scampi to begin with?? The shrimp was good but I could not stomach the pasta. So, great, I paid $21.99 for 5 shrimp, an invisible salad, and garlic knots that didn't hold up to their reputation, in my opinion. My son's sandwich and fries were a generous portion but there was really nothing spectacular about any of it. Phew. I feel better now having gotten this off my chest. Now I have to rebuild some Yelp! karma and finally get around to reviewing all the amazing places the FTL metro area has to offer. In the meantime, lesson learned about ordering delivery from an "Italian" chain. read more

Enjoyed lunch here while on break from Gold Coast Real Estate school next door. We had a party of 12 from our class. The staff was quite accommodating to bring tables together to handle the large group. Everyone asked for separate checks and told the waiter, Gio, we had to be back in an hour. Menu had a good selection of lunch items, sandwiches, soups, salads and a few entrees....plus pizza! The atmosphere was pleasant. Gio was very attentive to all of us and the other staff were helpful when bringing out all the lunch selections. I had the chicken club wrap which was very good and reasonably priced. The others seemed to enjoy their lunches, which looked appetizing and smelled delicious. Next time, I'd like to try their pizza. Gio was a terrific, attentive and friendly waiter. Food came out in time and we made it back just in time. read more

Rotelli - Italian Near Me - Tamarac, Florida

We've been going through a home renovation for the past two weeks so we've been eating out every night. I'm not going to lie... most nights we're disappointed by one thing or another but Saturday night we decided to try Rotelli's and it was great!! I ordered carryout. We got a large cheese pizza and half a dozen garlic knots. The young woman who took my order was really nice over the phone and super nice in person. The food was fresh and delicious!!! We'll definitely be eating here again in the near future!!! read more

I have been here a few times with co-workers for a quick lunch on early release days. They are very efficient at handling larger parties with split checks, and generally quick to get food out as well. The items I have had there have been full of flavor. I had a chicken salad once and a portobello mushroom special. Both items were delicious. I would highly recommend this place for a quick and tasty lunch. It's clean and the food is tasty! read more

Good job Rotelli. Had lunch here yesterday & as always it was great! The office normally orders pizza, garlic bread & salads from here every other month or so for our new franchise training classes we put on, but today we decided to drop in. I ordered my usual ( Malibu salad with no bacon) add everything else. (greens, avocados, red onion, mozz cheese, tomatoes, grilled chicken & extra homemade vinaigrette. Mannnnn let me tell you.... this salad is on point! All the veggies are fresh & the vinaigrette is so you can drink it from the container. The salad comes in a round tin with fresh baked bread underneath & it is GOOD!!! (you have to save some of the vinaigrette to dip the bread in) This is my favorite from here....but I'm also a fan of the veggie pizza. I wasn't able to get a slice being that I was wayyyy to full so that might be my excuses to double back for it today. IJS ;) Sunny read more

Uh, no is all I can say for starters. The other day i went in for a takeout order and was waiting too long for a simple order. One of the waitresses appeared very flustered. The cooks look like they dont want to be there. I couldnt wait any longer so I just left. Nobody said a word. This place previously catered lunches at my company and they consistently get orders wrong and charge for extras that they don't deliver. Bland low quality food and terrible service= not coming back for anything on the menu. read more

If there was a star less then one I'd give it to them. Ordered large pepperoni and 2 liter coke. Although pizza was delivered within the hour my Pepsi never arrived with order.woman deliver driver told me she'd return quickly . I don't know if different cultures tell time differently but I called Rotelli 3 times each time being assured she was on her way. You could walk from my house to the pizzeria in 5 minutes yet its been 45 minutes and still no Pepsi. So wanting pizza and soda was not to be. To top it off they told me they upgraded their service and lost past information of customers. Although I order there for convenience I will now look for amother pizzeria. There are quite a few around. It has now been 52 minutes and no soda Delivery sucks read more

Usually love the pizza here, but had a BOGO coupon so decided to dine in. Husband got the Giant Ravioli which arrived cold in the center. I had the Bella Penne Chicken which had a good flavor, but was it suppose to be the consistency of a bowl of soup?! May just stick to the pizza and lunch special here. read more
