   Pazzo Italiano (Crazy Italian) at Santa Rosa Beach is a newer addition to the Italian scene East of Destin. The food is very good, and the atmosphere is sort of "bistro" style. First, they provide dipping oil and bread. The oil had lots of raw garlic that would have benefitted by a little blanching to moderate some of the bitterness. Bread was nothing to rave about either. We started with the calamari. Perfectly cooked to remain tender, with a pomodoro dipping sauce. My wife had he bolognaise, which had a little more tomato than I would have liked for a true Bologna ragu, and I had a seafood mélange in a white wine sauce that was very good. We sampled the tiramisu for desert, which was excellent, but didn't need the drippings of nutela. The wine list was reasonable with acceptable wines by the glass at $11. All in all, it was a very good meal at a reasonable price, ~$115 for two.

   Very popular place. Food was good, not outstanding. The calamari was very good. Our meals, the fish special and the veal Marsala could have used more seasoning for our taste but would definitely make most people happy. The service was great, especially considering how busy they were.

   Very good food, great service and perfect atmosphere. The prices were quite reasonable considering the quality of food. We have been to the Destin location twice and the Santa Rose location once. Always a good experience.

   It's a pleasure to give Pazzo's in Santa Rosa Beach a 5-star rating for every category. This was our 3rd year in a row visiting Florida and we've been to Pazzo's each time. The food is delicious; service is prompt and friendly; the restaurant is not super noisy and the decor is pleasing to the eye. The only possible improvement they could make is to expand the ladies' restroom, but I'm guessing that's not possible for the building they are in. My family and I highly recommend Pazzo's!

   Pasta was watered down and tasted like it was straight out of a can. All our dishes were bland. Boring ambience. Nothing really great to say about this place. If you like cheap Italian food that’s overpriced this is the spot for you.

    This place is awesome. The food was delicious and the service was great! The portions are very large so consider a split. Even the bruschetta was large. The large salad was LARGE. But we have our lunch for today. I would recommend this to anyone.

    We love your restaurant, we frequent there often. Tonight the server (male) had a terrible awful amount of perfume on!! So so bad. Please remind the servers, people are eating and unwanted offensive scents can be very annoying. We almost said something, but decided to wait and me tell you on this app. Thank you

    Everything was well worth it. We requested outside but be aware outside is in the parking lot. I asked for outside, so it was fine but I was not aware I would be looking at a construction zone. Food was very good, especially the pizzas.

    Very well thought interior design, loved being able to see kitchen from our table. The appetizers and salads were superb, the special of the night (grouper and crabmeat) tasted as good as it sounded. The ravioli were nice and light, the only slight disappointment was the lasagna, the sauce was a bit too thick and acidic but the noodles made up for it. Great italian option while visiting Santa Rosa Beach, when back in town we will come back!

    Have been here a few times. Prices on all items have gone up. They’re also now charging you a % to cover the cost of the bank charge if you use your credit card. Price for 2 with each having 1 glass of cheapest wine ($11 per glass); sharing a large Caesar Salad; and, an entree was over $115 (including 20% tip). We would order in a similar manner 12-18 months ago and would be below $90. We won’t be back…if I’m going to spend that for Italian, there’s better options in the area. Too bad, very close to us and nice staff.
