Loved our server, he’s been with the restaurant 9 years! So very kind and made great suggestions. Food came out fast and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The salted caramel ice cream was so delicious and the rigatoni with eggplant was very good. The portions are very good sized so come hungry.

Pasta And… The most reliably tasty place I know. We’ve been going since they had five or six tables, basically since they opened. It’s a fabulous place for dinner and the service is friendly and personalized. I only come in once a year or so because I can only get there when I visit here from Portland. Despite my infrequent visits, they recognize us and greet us warmly. The food is fantastic and they are willing to make some adjustments to accommodate us being vegetarian. This one goes to eleven.

Serafina is always a favorite. We like that it’s off the beaten path, making it a hidden gem. There are plenty of Italian restaurants in South Florida, but there are only a few that are consistently delicious.
