When I first walked in it was nice to see it crowed. That’s usually a good sign! WRONG! Our waitress had a blah attitude. The first beer she brought me was warm. When she asked if I could bring another, I said only if it’s cold. It was cool not cold. Then she brought out our bread and oil halfway through the meal instead at the beginning. Some food was over cook while another dish was under cooked. For three people at a cost of 2 bills, you think you would walk away happy. We were all disappointed! After reading many reviews, I thought we found a great Italian restaurant only to be disappointed. On their website we saw mussels but that was false advertisement. We asked for an item on the menu and they were out. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME IF YOU HAVE TASTE!

Phenomenal cuisine. Eggplant parmesan was delicious. Quality wine selection. Busy and a bit noisy but it added to the experience. I’ll definitely be back.

Our dinners were the best Italian that we’ve had in Punta Gorda. Service was excellent! I had Linguine with clam sauce. Chicken parm and chicken picata were also ordered at our table. Everyone remarked how fresh and delicious! Can’t wait to go back,

We held my mother’s 90th birthday party at Italia. The service was excellent, food portions were large and very tasty! Overall, this was a wonderful location for our group of 18 people in the private dining room. The only negative is that the rear entrance/exit to the restaurant is through the private dining area so all night there were customers walking through the room. Not a huge problem; just a minor annoyance.

We had a room in the back of the restaurant that was perfect for our family of 9 people. The atmosphere was quiet and the decor made us imagine we were dining in Italy. Food was very good and service was great. We were celebrating our son and grandson’s birthdays and this was the perfect place because we all love Italian cuisine.

I made reservations for a party of 14. We were seated in the private room with 2 other small parties, different server. Our table was setup for 12 people. It took a while for the server to take our drink order. She had other tables in a different section to serve. It took 1 1/2 hour before we got our food. My grandkids were hungry. Two of the personalized pizzas were under cooked and at that point my Grandsons were so hungry that they ate what they could so the rest was garbage. The eggplant Parmigiana had over kill of sauce and the sauce was very sweet. My Chicken picata was salty. Trying to get our server to come refill our drinks was a challenge. When I called to make reservations I asked if I can bring a birthday cake as we were celebrating my Mom’s 84th birthday. I was going to cut the cake myself but our server insisted on doing so. I brought my own paper plates and plastic fork so we wouldn’t need to use the restaurant. We told our server that the 2 pizzas were undercooked. We get our bill and there was a $10.00 cake cutting fee and only 1 pizza discounted half price. This was supposed to be a positive experience as my Mom was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma and we wanted the family to be together to have a positive experience. $507.65 after and extremely disappointing with the entire experience. Italia will never get my business again. My recommendation to them is to have someone assist the server with large parties..when companies skimp on staff, they lose business.

One of my most favorite italian restaurants in the Fort Myers vicinity. Great atmosphere, great food, great staff. Don’t be afraid of asking for something special! I love veal parmigiana without breading. Just grilled with sauce and mozzarella over pasta. Veal parmigiana isn’t even on the menu. No worries. Just ask. If I could eat here every week without gaining weight, I would. Please don’t let the gruffness at checkin sway your opinion, once you get seated, everything is just great. Highly recommend!
