We live on the east coast of Florida but frequently travel to the Ft. Meyers area. When in the area we frequently dine here. I'd say we dine here 15 to 20 times a year. Consistently great food, moderate prices and very good service. Remember reservations are accepted. The fresh grouper dishes area excellent along with the mussels appetizer. Enjoy!,

Perfect zucchini sticks, just the way southern girls like them! And every entree I ever tried was perfect although the 1st one I ever had, I... More

Wow, a big surprise!! Hard to find the entry door but once inside, just knew this was the real deal. There were three of us, and everyones dinner was fantastic. The entree portions were large as were the deserts. (ther server could have been a bit more excited about his job but... a small down side) From now on, when... More

In Ft Myers for a week. Saw the ad in local paper and decided to give IL Pomodoro a try. We had reservations for five at five. Was seated right on time, and within ten minutes the place was full. We had great service, each ordered something different. All five of us had great food, the portions were more than... More

We read that this was a good restaurant on Trip Advisor so decided to give it a try. It's VERY tradition dishes and lots of it. Both of us could only eat 1/3 of our entrees. Heavy on garlic and salt

Oh, what a treat to find this bright, lively gem of a restaurant tucked away in a little shopping center in Fort Myers! We went for dinner twice in our 8 day FM stay and were very happy both times with the hearty, home style Italian cooking. Very large portions almost guarantees you'll take home enough for another meal. Delicious... More

Be sure to make reservations at this restauant. On a Monday night it was jam packed at 6:00. There were a lot of locals which I think is always a very good sign. It has a great ambiance, somewhat noisy last night but that was because they were so busy. It is nicer than a casual dining restaurant but not... More
