An inviting warm atmosphere with an attentive wait staff. Had a party of 8 and our waiter was engaging and efficient. $2 drafts for happy hour was a plus. Good warm bread with olive oil for dipping. Good sized portions and good pasta. I had the eggplant Parmesan it was ok. A bit thin and a little over cooked. Prices... More

I had Margarita pizza & the spaghetti and meat balls . The pizza lacked sauce and the dough was a little salty. I had the blush sauce on my pasta it was great. the pasta was prepared perfect. the meatballs where average at best .... the creme brulee was perfect. waiter was great, outdoor seating was nice with live entertainment.

First time we've been to Pagelli's since moving here 4 years ago and only because we never heard anyone rave about it. So we decided to give it a try. If you sit outside the atmosphere is fantastic there is entertainment Wed thru Sunday (I think) which is really good. But don't go for the food it was not great.... More

Had a great dinner and listened to marvelous live singing outside by the lake. The service was also very good. It was a wonderful experience. Will definitely go back. The Italian singer has a voice to compete with anyone on "The Voice".

We haven't been here in years, this area is so full of Italian restaurants so we seem to go to favorites or try new places (often with coupons). At 6 pm to 7:30 it was quite empty. They do have outside bar and often singer, check the website, but maybe high season. The waiter was training someone so our service... More

Our first night in SWF we enjoyed a lovely dinner at Pagelli's. Found it by accident driving around Coconut Point Mall searching for someplace to relax and have a nice dinner. Lovely Tuscan inspired restaurant with both inside and outside dining. Outside is where you want to score a table. Patio dining is next to a lake and live music... More
