Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My daughter and son-in-law fell in love with this restaurant while on vacation a couple of years ago. They live in Knoxville, TN. My wife and I live in Panama City Beach, FL. When we make a trip to visit them in TN, we get a to-go order of their favorites and deliver it to them. We enjoy it also and drive over from PCB occasionally. Very authentic Italian food at a fair price and great service.

I have to agree with some of the other reviews on here, we were not impressed.
I think they are way overpriced, 19.99 for a piece of Lasagna,it was a meat sauce and noodles, no cheeses at all and didn't include a salad. My husband said it was truly tasteless and bland as he put it in his mouth and he is not picky. I had ordered a carryout for my husband. I took a bite and didn't care for it as well. Cute little place but I think there are other places in Destin that would by far be better.

Our waitress was very knowledgeable regarding what the menu offered/ingredients etc. All the wines offered were Italian. We had the eggplant parmigiana, spaghetti and meatballs, fettuccine alfredo. Homemade pasta and sauce. It was all delicious. I haven't had a lot of tiramisu but i thought it flavorless considering how yummy everything else was. We are definitely going back, but I'm having cannolis next time.

Our $26 meal of lobster and shrimp arborio was so disappointing. Three small shrimp and four small bites of lobster buried in a red sauce that took all the flavor out of seafood. Picked the little bit of seafood out of the mound of rice and left the rest. Never again!!

We stopped here looking for a good Italian dinner. We were not disappointed. It was crowded and there was a wait after we were seated (lucky!). The staff was very friendly and the server was very helpful with our questions about the menu. The bread was nice, service was a bit slow - but it was very crowded so it didn't bother us. We had pizza, chicken parmigiana, spaghetti and meatballs, and lasagna. The pasta is made in-house. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Prices were fair for the good sized portions. We enjoyed ourselves and would recommend it - we saw several people order carryout and that could also be a good option.

We found this little restaurant when we were looking for a pizza place. We arrived late in the afternoon. It’s a small place with 30 tables. The service was spot on. The pizza was absolutely delicious. Perfect thin crust with the perfect amount of cheese and toppings.
We liked it so much we returned for dinner one night. When we woke in we didn’t know if we should seat ourselves or wait. We were finally greeted by a young lady and seated. At this point the restaurant was half full. It appeared that there was only 2 waitresses. Service was a little slow but it not unbearable. As the restaurant filled the service slowed and we saw people leave after being seated. As with all restaurants in Destin now, they had a sign on the door apologizing for the lack of service due to the lack of staff.
The food was amazing! I had the cannelloni And my husband had the veal parmigiana. Both dishes were so large that we could not finish. Made for. A great lunch the next day. It was also none of the less expensive meals of the week.

Incredible gem in a strip mall! I ordered the ravioli stefania and they were the largest ravioli I’ve ever encountered. Homemade and delicious! The filling was so flavorful and the sauce was just perfect. Not too much so it drowned out the other flavors. And the bits of sausage on top were just incredible. The bread was nothing special per se but the olive oil garlic dip they serve it with is a true winner!! Staff is friendly and helpful as well. I would definitely go back!

Good homemade pasta and pizza. Do not order any chicken dish. They must precook the breast and then warm just before serving. Chicken breast needs to be cooked on high an fast. Chicken lemone, Chicken parm (puke emoji), there wont be a third try on their chicken dishes. Prices are high for ambiance and quality of their decor and furnishings (puke emoji). Sorry, but true.

If you like stone cold takeout and spaghetti in your order of lasagna, this may be the place for you. I had the feeling I was eating someone else's leftovers. It was horrible. I live 3 mnts drive away, no exaggeration, and my food was cold to the touch and lacked any or none of the type of attention I may get with a dine in meal. Staff was friendly and prompt but the kitchen needs serious help. I won't go back. Highly disappointed. I t used to be good.

There are several excellent Italian restaurants in the area and this one is right at the top. An old family owned style Restaurant, where they make everything in house fresh everyday, including the pasta! Great sauces with wide selection priced moderately. Service is spot on in a casual atmosphere. Highly recommended!

This is an authentic Italian family owned restaurant. The food is made daily by the matriarch or the family and is super fresh and great quality. The service is excellent and we could not have asked for a better meal and evening. Great happy hour pricing too. We had the lasagne, calamari, bruschetta, chicken Parmesan and everything was excellent. Nice atmosphere as well. We will definitely be back!

Food was great but it took a very long time to get it. Service was very slow; they seem understaffed and I understand that. We had to ask for every single thing we needed including to take our order, to get something to drink, to get silverware, etc. It was like pulling teeth to get what we needed. We felt like we were bothering our server when we asked for basic items. So basically if you don’t mind waiting, the food is good!

One of the best Italian dinners I have ever had, in the coolest little restaurant. Reminded me of a small Italian place in "The Godfather".
I had the Veal Crema di Funghi and it was absolutely amazing! The veal was cooked perfectly nd the sauce has no equal. My wife ordered the Melanzana alla Parmigiana. This was one of the best tasting Eggplant dishes I have ever eaten.
The kiddos got the Fettucini Alfredo and it was also wonderful.
We loved this place so much that we asked about bringing the whole family on the next day to share the experience.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I am never disappointed. We come to Destin in January - and always eat here 5-6 times. It is one of the highlights of our trip. Family is always so welcoming, friendly and treat guests like they are part of their family. We love their pizza, but have also tried other entrées . All have been excellent. Delicious homemade desserts! Everything tastes so fresh and clean (good ingredients).

Was the food good? Yes! Was it authentic and homemade? No it really wasn’t. Sauce seemed very canned and the “homemade” noodles didn’t seem like homemade Italian noodles to me? (And yes, I went to Italy on a foodie trip so I’m at least somewhat qualified to make this call). Veal was good but will not be returning.
