Been going to Martorano's since 2004 and it is still the best food on planet earth. That is coming from a consummate foodie and Brooklyn girl of 26 years. And aside from the food, Stevie is a great guy and deserves all of the accolades!
Be the first to ReplyDon't Believe The Hype.
Only those that don't know better call this good food. The music etc is a nice touch. As far as rude staff, it's all a reflection on Managment. He not starving for business so it is what it is, but smart money stays away. Typical Brooklyn, Queens, NJ, Boston and Philly wanna be lady's and gents go to show how much more Giido that can be..

Classic food. Large portions. DJ /Owner makes food and DJ's. You will be fed well! Menu has photos! waiters show you on ipads! Service is efficient and anticipates what you will need. They have a secret pizza they give you a slice if you are good. you can't order it. Everyone is friendly, wild, and fun. You can eat alot and not get sick. Food is real.

I've been coming here for so long and keep coming back because of how incredible the food is. Definitely get the meatball salad and eggplant stack to start because those are two of the best appetizers they have. I got the vodka rigatoni with sausage as a main and it was so good. The service is always great here. The ambiance is also fun but I will say it is very noisy and can be hectic so be prepared for loud music and a dark vibe.

Loved it! Even my 7 year old daughter commented, "This is great service!" Food and drinks were excellent.

After reading many of the disappointing reviews, I actually wanted to cancel my reservation! However, when I was told that it was outside of the 24 hour 24 hours grace period, there would have been a $25 per person cancellation fee..so we decided to go. We were pleasantly surprised. The hostess and staff were all very nice and very attentive. I will say though when we ordered two Belvedere martinis we were hit with a $49 bill! Next time I will have a drink at home.. they honored our reservation and we were seated inside. I would probably agree that I would not want outside seating in a parking lot. it was not loud it was pleasant. There was music playing TVs were on and it was a fun place to be. We had the pork special which was delicious. I did not go with the meatball salad. Perhaps that will be for next time, I had spaghetti with clams, which was loaded w clams in the shell, my husband had, the carbonara both delicious we finished with two cappuccinos and a tiramisu. The table next to us was very nice as well, we had very nice conversation. We had a wonderful evening. We will return on our next trip from Philly.
Be the first to ReplyWe had a similar experience to many low ratings on this
We had a similar experience to many low ratings on this site. We are from out of town; our friends took us here based on the "celebrity chef" owner name. We know good food and good experience for what you pay for restaurants in this category. Several things stood out for us: 1. We walked in the door and we were told to wait to be seated until everyone arrived. Our friends were simply parking the car in the outside parking lot. They could have seated us, but refused. The attitude of the hostess was much to be desired. 2. We were seated by the kitchen door and bar. We asked for a better table, but they refused. So, the nicer tables were given to others because our friend was parking the car in the parking lot, which forced us to wait while others were seated. Honestly, I think the hostess just had a bad attitude 3. From the minute we sat down, we felt rushed. We were told we only had 90 minutes to finish our meal. The waiter very quickly went over the "specials" but didn't give us the prices. We asked him to give us prices, and, no wonder, their prices were outrageous, eg, the veal "Sinatra" dish special was $70?! Give me a break... 4. We ordered appetizers, and our friends received and ate their appetizers and we were still waiting for ours. By the time our appetizers arrived, they gave us the wrong dish! 5. We complained to the "hostess", and her attitude was "take it or leave it". We proceeded to talk to the owner, the "celebrity chef". He wore a diamond cross necklace, and when we tried to tell him about how terrible our experience had been, he basically said, "tough"! 6. We left the restaurant. We have never experienced anything like this before. It was a restaurant nightmare! Do not eat here! For what you will pay, you will be very disappointed! Plenty of Italian restaurants nearby. And, no wonder, this restaurant only gets a 3star rating..
Be the first to ReplyI make an effort to get to eat here every time I'm down
I make an effort to get to eat here every time I'm down here in Florida. However, this trip I forgot to make a reservation. I needed one for Saturday night for my gf and I. I called and left a voicemail sat morning around 9am and they promptly got back to me within the hour, with a table at 815, prime time!!! As soon as you walk in, the ambience is buzzing, like always, music playing, tv on! Thank you all so much for getting my gf and I in for dinner. The food was tremendous as always, but the thing that really stands out to me, besides the food, is the absolute top notch service. I believe my waiter was Jose, he was so professional, knew the menu, it was a pleasure. See you again, soon.

food was great, staff rushed us in and out on a Tuesday night. waiter told me he needed to turn over table when we wanted another cup of coffee
Be the first to ReplyWatch these guys.
Charge you to cancel a reservation. Try other restaurants in the area like shooters waterfront. Great people to work with on your vacation. Girl I spoke with was very ignorant when trying to cancel at cafe Martorano
Be the first to ReplyWe were invited to visit family in Fort Lauderdale.
We had two nights in town, so our hosts suggested Martoranos and Dune. Dune had a wonderful view of the ocean and the moon. Martoranos had everything else. I came to understand why my hosts had brought picnic tables and candles to the parking lot during Covid to dine on the take out from Martoranos. The food was memorable. But the essence of a great restaurant experience is the staff and how they make it all seamless. It was a special privilege to watch the service staff at Martoranos perform at a level of excellence I had not observed in over a decade. There was a moment at Martoranos where one would ordinarily expect to see lapses in discipline, a breakdown in the pace of service excellence. We were dining at the table closest to the kitchen handout spot. Three servers were waiting on the kitchen to take the orders out. The three were all, like sprinters awaiting the starting gun, on the balls of their feet, faces peering over the opening into the kitchen, each alert to the moment their specific order would be available. In most establishments, that kind of energy would be wasted. At Martoranos, their orders came out in rapid fire, and the three were swiftly replaced by another trio. Restaurants can get great food supply. Restaurants can hire terrific chefs. But on a Friday night in March, I observed a local restaurant managed at at a level of excellence , with supervision which allowed the serving staff to create a uniquely superlative dining experience.
Be the first to ReplyThis restaurant is amazing.
First at all, service was great. Sebastian took care of us and he's so friendly and attentive. Ask for him!! Second, right next to us was Shaquille O'Neal!!!! So that was something!!! The ambiance was nice too and the music is great. You dine and party at the same time. We had the wings, delicious! The pizza was 10/10! The pasta was good but the Philly sandwich was unreal! So good and tasty!
Be the first to ReplyWORST EXPERIENCE I have ever had in my life!!! Teddy P, was
WORST EXPERIENCE I have ever had in my life!!! Teddy P, was our waiter tonight and he was EXTREMELY RUDE from the very start. He got two orders wrong (my sister's chicken that was suppose to be Sicilian Chicken she even clarified 100 times - not Fusilli AND he put through 2 mozzarella dishes when we only ordered 1... pretty sure he did that one on purpose.) Teddy P. was very aggressive slamming his arms on the table yelling at me over the loud music. Then when he brought me the bill he told me that "he didn't remove anything and its not his fault the music is loud, it was like that when we came in." I then said it wasn't the music being so loud that was bothering me... it was him getting our orders wrong, not apologizing or fixing it but to make matters worse he behaved completely unhinged towards me yelling at me trying to tell me that I am wrong and that is what we ordered when we know very clearly what we ordered, and in fact he is wrong... in so many ways. I will never be going back ever. He should not be working in the service industry with how he treated me as a customer. I can not get over how rude he was. I still can't believe he didn't fix the issue. We basically had no choice but to pay for two wrong dishes that we wont eat just because of how stubborn and rude that man was. The people I was with said something "seemed off" about him. Regardless, the whole experience still has us all shook. The experience we all had at this establishment was absolutely so horrible.My advice is to go to any other restaurant in the world but this one. Horrible.

Super fun restaurant great for celebrating a birthday! The food was absolutely delicious. We did wait a long time for our table but I would do it again. It is definitely loud but i enjoy that part makes you feel like you're out at a disco. I say disco to describe the music because that's the kind of music played. The crowed was definitely mixed middle aged to early 70s but everyone is there for a good time and the delicious food!

Best food in the state of Florida great atmosphere fun if your coming to Fort Lauderdale or surrounding areas it's a must try to get there on Saturday it's a blast
Be the first to ReplyA hidden gem frequented by regulars great for special
A hidden gem frequented by regulars great for special occasions. Friday nights are poppin! It was so crowded my friends and I could barely walk through to the bar. It is a bit pricy but a good time nonetheless. Since we didn't have a reservation, we went only for drinks. The food looked really delicious though and from people who had just finished eating they also said everything was to perfection.After 10 pm, this place seemingly transforms into a "place to be" where there is throwback 90s music blasting through the speakers and a disco ball lighting the place. It truly felt like an after party.The decor is nice also, and they have 2 big tv screens playing old school movies as well.The owner was really friendly and checked on our group to make sure we were having a good time.A definite must try for date night or just for a good time. I'll definitely be back!
Be the first to Replyoverpriced they rushed us as soon as we sat down food
overpriced they rushed us as soon as we sat down food wasn't great I had to yell at the waiter twice to stop taking stuff off the table the waiter asked me if we were going to have dessert when I was walking to the Mens room I don't understand what all the hype is about Manhattan prices in ft Lauderdale it's a joke oh I almost forgot about the bone in the philly cheese steak my buddy chipped a tooth on so if you think this place is the best I guess you don't get out much make sure you bring your wannabe gangster card and your Lamborghini!! Lmfaooo
Be the first to ReplyQuite the atmosphere for a Wednesday.
food was delicious, music was too loud, outdoor ambiance was on point, waiter was insanely awesome and made the evening. Worth the price of admission.
Be the first to ReplyEverything was delicious.
I would come again. My experience here was amazing. Our server was excellent, and he also surprised my bf by singing happy birthday. Our bill come was $300, but it was well worth it. You also have to make a reservation ahead of time and provide your credit card.
Be the first to ReplyWent to Martorano Saturday night and had a tremendous
Went to Martorano Saturday night and had a tremendous dinner table of 8 sat for 2 hours was not rushed even got dessert for free from Steve Fir my birthdayAnyone who complains about this place just don't know. Complaining about people in your party being late and not able to be seated till they get there is not there fault. This isn't Olive Garden . It clearly states on open door about this policy and when you get a phone call to confirm your reservation To complain about the prices is also ridiculous the ingredients are not from Walmart . These are top of the line ingredients and with the prices these days I understand I have been to Martorano many times and I am not rich at all but I know what I'm getting and how it's going to be if you complain about the place then don't go like I said this is not Olive Garden The only complaint you could possibly have is that the music is to loud that's it nothing else if you go early it's not an issue at all so stop bitching and just enjoy top quality food in a great atmosphere.Thank you Steve for another great meal and thanks for the dessert tray I will definitely go back for another amazing meal
Be the first to ReplyI am horrified by the service I experienced here.
I literally left in tears because I was so excited for this meal and treated so awfully. If you come here, don't even THINK about coming before 8 PM because you will be treated so poorly it's actually startling. We had a 615 reservation (they opened at 6:10) and weren't allowed to be sat because two people in our group were stuck in traffic coming east. Which I get. At 15 mins past the reservation (630) they told us they were going to give up our table. It was my husbands birthday so we begged them not to and they said we could be seated if we order the people who were late's food. Fair enough. We sat down and our friends showed up right away anyways. I'll say, the food is good but what happened beyond that is not worth the food. We were rushed to order right away and then we were never checked on again. It almost seemed like the waiter was avoiding us so we couldn't order anything else. After getting our pasta we were not checked in again for easily 20 mins and when they came they gave us the bill. We said we wanted dessert and the waiter pretended not to hear us and kept running away. Then when he came back for the bill we said we wanted dessert (something we had tried to tell him multiple times before) and he said we had to leave because someone else wanted our table. And they don't care. It's a famous restaurant so they don't give an effe. I get that two people in our party were late and we were an early dinner, so therefore we get an expensive meal where we are treated like an irritation. Ok.
Be the first to ReplyThe absolute best !!!! Get the Sicilian slice if they have
The absolute best !!!! Get the Sicilian slice if they have it available. The meatball salad is my go to. I actually get it for my meal it's so large! Make reservations in advance. After about 930pm music gets louder. It's a great place. Thank you Steve and staff!!
