Cinque Terre Italian Restaurant

Delightful experience tonight! Enjoyed the service from walking into the restaurant to the dining experience. The food was exquisite! Started with the grandma’s meatballs and mussels in garlic tomato sauce. A must is a pear and provolone fiochetti and the short rib rigatoni.. let me use one word impressive!!! Excellent use of spices! If your looking for a true Italian food experience you must try Cinque Terre!!!

Our waiter was Bobbie was top notch very helpful. Loved to see how the owners are so involved with the Restaurant! Can’t wait to go back!!!

Last night was absolutely amazing. We really enjoyed the environment and atmosphere. Daniel the owner, was very hands on in ensuring our experience was satisfactory. The pasta is handmade and you can definitely tell. The prices were fair for the quality of food and experience. I highly recommend. I can’t wait to bring more friends and family!
P.s. try the octopus 🐙 so delicious.

We first discovered this restaurant about a few years ago on Uber Eats. They make this black squid ink pasta that is to die for. I hate that saying but there is no other way to describe it. We ordered at least 3 times a month and then it disappeared off Uber Eats. Sometimes Uber Eats restaurants operate under another name and we thought they might have went out of business. Just in the last few months, I started receiving text from them offering specials. We decided to take the 15 minute drive into Davie and try the restaurant out. Once inside, we found the interior to be cozy and intimate. You feel as if you are in their home. The greeter, Luisa sat us and we ordered a bottle of wine off of their fairly extensive and well thought out varieties. Some familiar, most not. I found the black squid ink dish and they happily changed the white pasta in a clam and shrimp dish I saw on the menu for the black ink squid pasta My wife ordered Lobster Raviolli which was not listed at the time but is a specialty. The wine ( they have a full bar if you are not into wine), food and service was impeccable. We became regulars, usually on Friday nights. We were served by Luisa and Daniel on each occasion. Daniel treats the customers as if he owned the place and talks to each of his customers. Luisa who is equally as nice really runs around with Daniel to make sure everything is up to par and that everyone was happy. Last night, 10/16/20, we went there for my Birthday. My wife told Daniel though I am not the type to bring that info up. He did something very nice for me. As I mentioned, they do have a nice selections of wines that are not over priced. Jokingly, I asked Daniel if he could recommend one of two choices of red wines we picked and he picked one and gave us the complete run down on the wine and though he admitted he is no sommelier, he is no amateur as well and sounded like a sommelier. The wine choice ( Cabernet del Veneto) tasted exactly as he described. The depth of his knowledge will amaze even many experts though we are far from being experts ourselves. Knowing the details of how a certain wine is made and how it should taste makes the experience that much better. The food was fantastic as usual. Oh yeah, I forgot one thing! The bread which is homemade and delicious is a great start to your meal. The balsamic and oil included with the bread is not your typical mass made type. It is truly special in it's own right. If you become regular customers, who will learn much more about Luisa and Daniel and their cook, all who seem to be passionate about the restaurant. Most of their customers seem to be regulars as Daniel greets them and says goodbye by name on every occasion he can.
Ok, this should be enough to say you have to give it a try and maybe you too can have found a great Italian Restaurant in Davie and you dont have to drive an hour to get there!!! Highly recommended!!!

This is truly a hidden gem, Authentic Italian food cooked by a Real Italian Chef (Aldo) with Superb service what a combination.

We visited on New Years Eve. And despite the fact that they were extremely busy the entire staff was friendly and helpful the “Owners” both came to our table to make sure we were taken care of Luisa and Daniel we thank you for an amazing night.

Large selection of wines that you can pair with the great option of food, we recommend for appetizers Octopus, Eggplant Parmigiana & the Burrata Cheese, for Pastas Frutti De Mare (Delicious) Spinach Ravioli Shrimp Scampi, Lobster Ravioli & make sure you ask for the Chef special of the day; if you like beer instead of wine you will find great Italian beers including IPA.
After you finish your meal you can enjoy a Great espresso single or double, Latte or regular coffee with a good selection of desserts we had the Triple Chocolate Cake & Carrot cake.

They also offer delivery to you home or office using many of the food delivery Apps.

We definitely are coming back for more soon.

Great Italian restaurant in davie. Food was very good, although a little bit expensive. I got the fettuccine Alfredo, a little bit too saucy for me but still very tasty. The staff was super nice and attentive. Overall a great restaurant to at least try, would recommend!

Excellent restaurant. Very kind staff and amazing home-made style food. I definitely will come back!

Amazing food and real Italian flavors! The service is incredible, very friendly and nice! Thanks for this experience! It is not often that you find a good Italian restaurant here

Outstanding customer service, food was delicious, so tasty, nice size plates too. The appetizers are great too and the drinks as well, overall recommended 👌🏾 👍🏾

Hands down my favorite italian restaurant in town! They always have great specials and an amazing happy hour!

Great food and very nice owners. It seems like it’s a family own business. I went in for lunch while studying and the owners were very friendly, not just towards me but also a boy that was outside. It was a very hot day, the boy came into the establishment and asked for paper towel, the owners were very nice to him and told him he could use the sink as well. It’s really nice to see that they treat everyone with the same respect not just the patrons. Also the food is great. I had the octopus for appetizer and the shrimp tortellini and both dishes were delish!
Will be coming back to try their other plates.

Hidden Gem.This is probably our 8th time visiting this restaurant and never once were we disappointed. Great food and wine, the owners are so attentive and accommodating. I would give this restaurant 10 stars if it was possible.

We've been coming here for years. Absolutely love this restaurant. Food is always good and they have an awesome staff. I read some of the bad reviews and the people complaining about slow service should just go to Olive Garden. They take their time and prepare everything from scratch. They don't rush you out when you're done eating. Real Italian Restaurants let you enjoy your experience and this is the place to go if you want to sit and relax and have a great meal and enjoy it!! Have always had a great meal and great service and we eat here a LOT!!!

every time I come here...I am pleasantly surprised…..flavor/taste is amazing 🤩

Amazing service and amazing food. Octopus was was incredible. Best thing is that everything is made from scratch. Support local businesses!

Amazing food. Great service.

I will say myself that they have AMAZING pasta, chicken, etc. You have to try the triple chocolate cake slice if you are a chocolate fan because it is amazing. Overall, a real good not packed that much italian restaurant. BTW EXPENSIVE

Excellent restaurant. We went to celebrate my mother's birthday and we had a great time. Very tasty homemade Italian food. Now we are going to try the deep dish pizzas. We will definitely be back soon.

This place is amazing! The ambiance is so nice! Reminds me of NYC restaurants...also the food is amazing!!!!!! Service is so great!

This is such a hidden gem! The quality of the food brings me back to Italy. They have great service and I suggest the chocolate martini.

The Best. Everything was delicious. I am sorry we didn't know about this place sooner. Will definitely be back
