Patrizia's Fort Lauderdale - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I didn’t know Florida has good bread! I’m from the Philly area, where you can’t throw a Cavatelli without hitting a good Italian restaurant.

Warm, crispy bread at the table, with garlicky oil for dipping really set the tone

The charred octopus was some of the best I’ve had. I would come back for that alone.

We got the short rib cavatelli, the chicken parm, and the money bag pasta with mushrooms and peas.

Everyone loved their meal. The portions are big and the restaurant is pretty. We sat inside but they have nice outdoor seating. I will be back.

They also have a happy hour which I’ll need to check out. I’ve probably been to 25 different restaurants in Fort Lauderdale and this was one of the best, as is Casa Sensei and Greek islands Taverna (across the street)

Tried this spot for date night. Great service, nice location (we sat outside to enjoy the hanging lights), and bf enjoyed the food. The menu is not overwhelming. The only con (minor) is that there l seemed to be the same 5 songs on repeat on the sound system outside.

Had the pleasure of attending a company dinner at Patrizia's! Food was great, service was amazing and the atmosphere was relaxing. We were a group of 19 ladies, who needed to unwind and have fun after a stressful few weeks. We did just that. The staff was able to keep up with our different particular orders and they did it with a smile. It was not too busy for a weekday evening, so the manager agreed to rearrange the tables and chairs so that we could all sit facing each other... So we had a huge "square" table in the middle of the restaurant ... Will definitely be hitting them up again on a different occasion with my family!

Very good Italian “Family Restaurant”. Reasonably priced. We had Burrata, Short Rib Pasta and Chicken Parmesan. Locals crowd. All very good. Will be back to try the Pizza. It gets very very loud on a Saturday night, sound resonates in the main dining room. For a high end experience in the top Italian restaurant go to Casa D Angelo on Federal Highway or Cafe Europa on Las Olas. Or close by Cafe Vico.

First our server Andrew was fantastic, timely with drinks & entrees and always with a smile! My husband Joe had salmon oreganata which was fabulous and I enjoyed a Caesar salad with chicken…service bread was scrumptious. Great dining experience…would highly recommend!

My grandma recently passed and I was not very much in the holiday spirit. She embodied everything that Christmas Eve meant. I did not want to cook or celebrate so my husband suggested we go out to eat. No cooking or fuss and I agreed. I searched for last minute reservations and came across Patrizia's. My husband and my 2 stepsons were going to enjoy the family style meal because that's how Italians do it! Unfortunately, my eldest stepson had to cancel at the last minute because his grandfather was in the ICU. So it was a party of 3. We parked easily and stepped in for our 7pm reservation. The place was PACKED! I was a little worried but we were seated within 15 minutes of our reservation, which on a holiday I find amazing. Our server was Jhonny and first let me say that he was INCREDIBLE. Again, the place was filled with people enjoying their holiday meals and he still had a smile on his face while he hustled from table to table! We told him we wanted the family style meal and in a short time we were flooded with apps! My younger stepson (14) was overwhelmed and excited with all the options. He tried burrata for the first time and it melted in his mouth! He also really liked the calamari. He was drinking water by the liter and said it was the best water he ever tasted. His father and I told him it tasted like NY tap water, which we love. After we were stuffed from the the 1st course Jhonny slowed things down a bit and let us digest a bit before we had the most delicious pasta, steak, and chicken. Afterwards, we indulged on dessert. The cannolis are a MUST! I felt bad that my stepson could not join us and I'm already making plans for a return when he gets back into town so he can experience this with us. I felt my grandmother was totally with us because she was a terrific cook and made all of these dishes with love. The Manager, Dom was very gracious as well. Patrizia's knocked it out of the park for me on what was a sad occasion but turned it into a joyous one.
