Little Italy Restaurant & Pizza — Restaurant in Florida

This family-owned and operated restaurant is what is missing from the area and often overlooked. Ive passed this spot dozens of times but never stopped in because there are a lot of pizza places around. Tonight- we stopped in and I'm so glad we did.

The dining room was empty and we were told to sit wherever we chose. We were greeted by who I assume is the owner. He was very friendly and accommodating. His wife, who is due to give birth soon, brought our drinks. They chatted with us as though we had known each other for a long time. When I ordered I asked if he could put a special request in to the cooks and he let me know he was the one doing the cooking.

The food was very good. As we ate a few other tables trickled in and they all seemed to know the husband and wife who were running the place. The prices were very affordable too!

More than the food and the pricing, what deserves recognition is the service. As a small business owner, I appreciate the hustle of a couple working hard front and back of the house and maintaining a warm, welcoming spirit. It is as though we were guests in their home. As life gets more fast-paced and the area becomes more and more developed, these hidden gems seem to disappear and that level of service goes as well. When dining here, for a moment, it seemed we were in a small town... much like how things were growing up here.

We look forward to returning here and I strongly encourage you to as well. Much thanks to the owners of this...

Edit #1 (replying to owner): Thanks, Sal, for your prompt response. I actually did notice the prices and that’s how I realized, on my way home, the math didn’t make sense in my head. I understand now how the total came to be $77.49 but a couple of things to clarify: the chicken tenders were offered WITH fries (we were not informed they cost extra). The lemonade was watery and that’s why my wife asked for a sprite so thanks for the refund and adding the pricing - I thought they were $1.25 based on your website but I’m guessing that’s just a regular can (?) I appreciate the generous offer. I would still recommend you adding an itemized bill to avoid further and future confusion. Changing my original review, now.

I just visited this place with my family and something doesn’t add up. Don’t get me wrong, the food was good but what we ordered doesn’t match what we paid for. We order 2 chicken parmigiana, one large NY cheese pizza, 6 piece chicken tenders and 4 sodas but, according to their website (I added the same items to the online order), the total comes down to $62.95 which is way less than the $77.41 on the bill/check (if paid with cash) or $80 something if paid with credit card. Even adding taxes doesn’t come close to those amounts. Not having an itemized bill/check was not great. Owners, care to explain? I’ll update my review...

I moved here about a year ago. I have searched from Jupiter to Ft Lauderdale for a place like this. There food is the best I have ever had. I had Chicken parm subs and pizza. The roll is toasted. The chicken crispy white meat no fat. Not A greasy heavy oil taste like most places. It is crispy light tender and has an awesome sauce that is not from a can like most places. It's smothered in mozzarella or provolone or both. It can be a huge single serving or shared or take half for lunch the next day. The pizza crust is thin. The sauce is much better than chain stores and cheese is abundant. Then you have the prices. Unbelievably log. 2 large subs and and a slice under 16$. Back home it was 22$ + locally it's 28$ + but her the prices are very good. I recommend a tip of 20% or more. You will still save money. Do not miss this place if you are in The Lake Worth Florida area. I vote best Italian original...
