    Papa Lozzi is my family’s Go-To Italian Restaurant since they opened. The food quality remains excellent and services continues to be attentive. Prices are fair. But most importantly you are treated as family A special note are the daily specials offered as they are creative and above all are excellent We recommend you take the time to dine here. Food is made from scratch using original recipes. Full bar available

    Food was good. Side items and desserts are expensive. The desserts are made in house. We would go back.

    We really enjoyed our dinner. The lasagna was delicious, the deserts, especially the crème brûlée were amazing. We had a bottle of the house Merlot, it was actually hot, like it had been sitting next to a stove or something but surprisingly the taste was fine. We will be back for casual occasions.

    Overall the food was pretty good. I was disappointed in the Chicken Marsala ( didn’t taste like Marsala and stingy with the mushrooms) and the prosciutto which was part of the appetizer seemed dried out and tough. However, the Arancini and fish dishes were very good, as were the desserts, wine and coffee. The rest of our party (3 others) seemed very satisfied. My husband thought the wine and entrees were reasonably priced but the appetizers and desserts overpriced.

    We just moved to Florida one year ago. Our family is 100% Italian. We had family come in to visit from Pa. We took them to Papa Lozzi for dinner. Even though we live 40 minutes away, Papa Lozzi's is our go to place!! The food is awesome, the service is amazing, and the owner always steps up to fill in and do whatever he needs to do to make sure everyone has a great experience at his restaurant. Highly recommend!!

    This was my second time here in a month. The first experience was so good I returned with other work colleagues. The return was as good as the first. We had four different dishes, all plentiful. From lasagna to chicken parmesean to a sea bass and a spicy shrimp pasta, all were excellent. I'll be back.

    Exceptional service by Joachim, the server, & Chino, the bartender. Don’t hesitate to ask Chino for cocktail recommendations to accompany your meal. Joachim will give you exceptional service. All three in our party ordered different entrees , so we could “graze” from each other’s plate. The Bronzini was perfectly prepared & melted in my mouth! The mushroom ravioli (portobello) was exceptional. The risotto with blackened shrimp was the best ever! There really aren’t enough superlatives to describe the taste explosion. The chocolate soufflé was divine! Whatever you order, it’s certain to exceed expectations. Can’t recommend highly enough.

    Food was delicious. We waited a long time for service. We had a reservation. The family ahead of us at the door didn’t. They were seated at the same time as us, but had drinks and apps before we were greeted by a server. After about 20 minutes of waiting, I stopped the hostess when she passed by and a few minutes later the server came to our table. When the server did come, he was great to work with. So, it seemed like a breakdown in communication between the server and the hostess. In the end, the food was delicious. We would return for sure.

    We found Papa Lozzi’s to be a restaurant we enjoy revisiting as the food is very good and service is excellent. They have an nice selection of wines and a great bar. Plenty of parking The veal piccata is very good when I order it but this time it was a bit tough. However everything else was good
