    Beet cobbler appetizer was delicious as was the soup of the day. Veal piccata and saltimbuco were good. Pistachio desert was wonderful!

    This was so disappointing….the fish was like dry sawdust. The soup was cold. The shrimp were tasteless. We had wanted to order the Thanksgiving special of turkey but the waiter talked us put of it. $250 for dinner for four, and the food was terrible.

    Our first visit here to celebrate our anniversary. Their location in a plaza would not make you look twice but as we approached there was a gentleman singing and playing saxophone and tables outside. We were greeted inside by a friendly gentleman who sat us on the side where it was a little quieter but we could still hear and enjoy the live music. Our server Joseph was fantastic and very friendly. We ordered Espresso martini and limoncello martini to start and drinks were great. We ordered an appetizer the baseball burrata which was good but served cold ( we were expecting it to be warm) but it was enjoyable regardless. Joseph respected our desire to take our time before ordering our entree which was wonderful. Husband ordered the Fruiti Mare and I ordered the pear and Gorgonzola ravioli. Both meals were delicious. For dessert we shared the Limoncello cake… also a big hit. We had a lovely evening and will definitely return to try some other delicious entrees. The restaurant is also very nicely decorated and then atmosphere was fun and lively.

    We always enjoy eating here. Our server was excellent. He recognized that we were a group of six that had not seen each other in a while and truly allowed us time to enjoy each other’s company, but was very attentive to us. The food was fabulous. The Beet Cobbler may be one of the most wonderful things I have ever eaten.

    The food was amazing! We went on Ladies night, so the value was great! Unfortunately, the server was not great. She forgot multiple items. We had to ask numerous times for things. When the checks came she forgot to apply the ladies night discount & then she charged the wrong cards & blamed it on my friends putting the cards in the wrong billfold, which they did not do because we had to pass them out ourselves as she just left them in a heap on the table (there were only 4 of us).

    We were sat 6” from another group with a shared bench. I’m disappointed I won’t be invited to their wedding because I feel like I was there for the preliminary planning. A little later another couple was sat directly next to us on the other side. So we were sandwiched between two other parties in very close range. Definitely not a fine dining ambiance, more sports bar with $31 ravioli.

    Too crowded and loud. The Linguine Limoncello was not worth the money. The shrimp were good but only six. The linguine was only butter and no lemon or roasted garlic.

    The veal or pork was very very thin. Small portions (I am bot a big eater) no salt on anything—at least state that on the menu. Not enough seasonings —waitress said the red sauce was spicy but they could take it out-I said no it’s ok. Bla Overpriced-$5 to add 1/2 cup of spinach—wow

    Of all the places I’ve eaten in NSB, I had never eaten at Limoncello South. I have been missing out and I can’t wait to return. The menu was amazing, our waitress was sweet, the cocktails fabulous and the live music perfect for the occasion. Great restaurant, give it a try!

    Limoncello was a pleasant evening. The service was spot on, cocktails were delicious! The house Cosmo was perfect! Lobster ravioli and a perfectly prepared filet were our entrees. Live music on the patio was a nice touch. We stayed around after dinner until the music ended. Folks danced and just enjoyed the evening. A wonderful night.

    What a gem we found! After a recommendation from a friend upon his experience the previous evening we tried it. And boy, were we in for a treat! It was a fantastic experience from the start! A gentleman made sure my Mom was nice and comfy in her seat by making sure she had a pillow, our waitress Emily was a professional, warm and inviting and immediately attentive to our requests. Other support staff was also on the spot. AND the food was outstanding! After living in New Smyrna for years we don’t know how we missed this! So glad we found it now, as we will for sure be back! Thanks for a great experience all around! .

    It was lovely the food was delicious and service impeccable and we enjoyed listening to the music. The atmosphere was lively it was a bit warm inside when all the people started gathering but overall it was very nice cozy but a bit noisy due to the amount of people in a small space. I was there for a special occasion with my father it's one of his favorite restaurants and he visits as frequently as possible. I would definitely recommend limoncello

    My wife and I went out here for our date night and it was fabulous, the ambience was nice with live music in the background. Our server was attentive and worked hard for his money. The only thing is I wish they hand condiments like salt and pepper at the table but I feel like I would have been slapped if I asked for it! Great food, Great Place... You should try it out!
