Authentic Italian Cuisine! Everything we had was full of flavor! They have a huge selection of meals, appetizers and more. The food is made fresh with authentic ingredients. They have a large selction of wines, great atmosphere. The service was excellent. So happy we found this place, I’m going to spread the word! So GOOD!

This restaurant made us feel like we were back in Italy. I highly recommend! We started with limoncello spritzers (not on menu) to start, cacio e Pepe pasta and they made a special request lemon cream spaghetti with shrimp like we had in Sorrento. All was delicious! Zach gave fabulous service! No eye rolling with special requests and made us aware that this restaurant is SEED OIL FREE!! Also, thank you to the chef for allowing and making our request! Don’t forget the pistachio limoncello to top off the night! The menu has so many delicious options can’t wait to go back!

I feel like I just spent 2 hours in Rome. There was a restaurant in Rome I loved, and this place reminds me of it.
If you’re in Miami, you absolutely must visit 100%. The tiramisu is a must-order.
The server was fantastic! Camila was super friendly and recommended the best food.

I recently visited Zito’s Italian Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale and had an experience worth sharing. As a frequent traveler to Italy—I’ve been over 18 times—I can confidently say Zito’s offers some of the best Italian cuisine I’ve had outside of Italy itself.
Our server, Gregorio, was incredibly charming and helpful throughout the evening. He made great recommendations and really enhanced our dining experience. We were glad we had a reservation because the place was bustling. However, be aware that the indoor seating is quite loud, so if you prefer a quieter meal, I’d recommend opting for the outdoor seating with space heaters.
We started with the fried calamari and meatballs. Even though I usually skip meatballs at restaurants, these were exceptional. For our main courses, we had the cacio e pepe and a pistachio gnocchi dusted with gold powder, which was a standout dish. We also tried the branzino in a rich tomato sauce—though they offer it in a lemon sauce as well if that’s more your style. To top it off, we had the veal milanese, which was just perfect.
We were absolutely full but still managed to share a ricotta cheesecake for dessert, which was delightful. We finished with a pistachio “limoncello” (even if my mom questioned the name), and it was a unique and delicious end to the meal. Just keep an eye on the wine prices due to tariffs.
Overall, Zito’s is a fantastic place for authentic Italian food with a lively vibe. And hey, as an added bonus, there’s even a photo op by the Fiat parked out front—just be ready to share the spotlight with a few selfie enthusiasts. And watch out for those wine prices—because, you know, tariffs. Cheers!

I went to Zitos on a date with my boyfriend. The meatballs were very filling and the food was delicious! May I just say Zach our server was excellent! He was very welcoming as well as very attentive. He even made sure to open the door for us as we left. I will definitely be coming back and hope to have Zach as our server again. Keep up the great work!!!

From the outside, Zito’s doesn’t hint at what’s inside—a thoughtfully designed, welcoming dining room and an exceptional meal. Laura, our waitress, elevated the experience with her detailed menu knowledge, spot-on recommendations, and attentive service. We ordered the chicken piccata, rigatoni alla vodka, and funghi pasta. Every dish tasted fresh and satisfying without being overly heavy. A true mark of quality was the homemade desserts, with the tiramisu standing out as genuinely authentic. Although we don’t live in Ft. Lauderdale, this restaurant alone would bring us back. One thing to keep in mind: parking is limited.

Was told this was one of the best Italian spots in Laudy and wasn’t disappointed. We had the Calamari, Espresso Martini, Nutella Desert and the crown jewel of the night was the Rigatoni alla Vodka. Not kidding it was probably the best one I’ve had in the country. Francesca “Nona” was there and chatted with us for a minute and it was some of the best hospitality I’ve had in South Florida. Our server Sheridein was incredible and had a beautiful accent which added to the atmosphere which was upscale casual. They used real quality olive oil for the bread and every pasta we saw leave the kitchen looked incredible

SECOND time here and it did not disappoint! First time we came on a date night and this time we brought the kiddos. We had a great dinner with entertainment (Nunzio) he was so caring, professional and most importantly my little boy was having a blast with him. The food was excellent and we didn’t not need to refill our wine glasses because Nunzio was always attentive (which is uncommon nowadays) and refilled our glasses- we had zero complaints. The ambiance, the way they accommodated our littles ones (2 years & 7 months) it was a breath of fresh air. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you, Nunzio for taking care of our family today. Ciao ciao!

Zito’s Italian Restaurant made a wonderful first impression with the friendly hostesses and a charming atmosphere. Our server Thomas was very helpful and went above and beyond to improve our already fantastic experience. The service was so amazing it’s hard to believe that the food was the best part of being at this restaurant. We ordered the Gnocchi Dello Chef and the Rigatoni Alla Vodka as well as the tiramisu. Both entrees blew us away and the tiramisu will have me thinking about it until I have it again. Resounding great review for Zito’s and for Thomas.
