AMAZING place, I can't recommend enough! Such a wonderful family atmosphere. The food is to die for, homemade, cook-to-order, rustic Italian. The father daughter duo rule the kitchen and make you feel like family.

We were highly recommended by friends to try Di Valle. We decided to go on for an early dinner during the week. We were pleasantly delighted immediately when greeted by Anna. I admired the quaint decor as you will see in my photos. The food was exceptional, delicious and well presented! After we placed our appetizer order, we received a plank of wood with homebaked bread with bruschetta. To start we enjoyed Eggplant Parmigiana and Caprese along with a nice glass of wine. For entrees we had lasagna and veal piccata. We absolutely loved our meal. For dessert we had their lemoncello tiramisu and cappuccino! Thank you Di Valle for a wonderful meal. Even though we were fully satisfied and took home what we couldn't finish, we can't wait to return and bring along friends to spread the word!

We went with close friends who have been here before . We started with bread ? and bruschetta . Then we shared the St Tropez salad , our friends shared the Caesar salad. 2 of us had the Eggplant ? Parmigiana , the other 2 had the Trio Ravioli: spinach, mushrooms, lobster filling . We didn’t want dessert but it was too tempting: Coffee Tiramisu to share , and an Apple Tart . The waitress was very sweet and friendly!

This small family owned business deserves to stick around. They did a great job of accommodating our big party of 16 people, early this week. The food was great, the staff was on point. The wife was happy, family & friends had no complaints

If you love amazing italian food, top notch quality customer service and a homey feel, tbis is a MUST TRY restaurant. It is legit a piece of Italy in the heart of Ft Lauderdale. We came here with a large group to celebrate a birthday. They accommodated us terrifically and while the party waited for all the guests to arrive, they served delicious toasts with a tangy and awesome italian "salsa". The food was AMAZING, SERIOUSLY. Even my 3 years old, who is a picky eater and has a several food allergies, ate and loved the food. I had the lamb and it was delicious, and i tried bites of other stuff and they were soo good! I also ended up eating a veal picatta which was delicious and had a hint of lemon. The drinks were amazing and the orangecello is a must try if you go. To top it off, the owners are the ones working the business, a true locally owned and operated business, so the customer service i felt was one of the best i have ever experienced in a restaurant. We didn't get to try the desserts because we brought cake but i am definitely coming back to try them. The owners were extremely nice and made sure we were more than happy with our experience. They even helped us to decorate a bit the tables. Love it, love it, love it.

Looking for a proper italian restaurant? Then here is the place to go!! My husband and his family are Italian. They never eat at italian restaurants because nothing compares to Mama's cooking. This restaurant got their approval and 5 stars from all of them! Norberto the chef knocked every dish out of the park. The Octopus was cooked to perfection, the burrata salad was delicious, and all the pasta dishes we got were exceptional! He puts so much time and effort into every dish; we were not surprised to hear that almost everything is made in house from scratch. The Di Valle Family makes you feel like you are one of them from the moment you walk in. We highly recommend the homemade Cannoli's and the homemade Orangecello. Bravo Di Valle Family for a wonderful restaurant.

All I can say is wow! Ordered off Uber eats so not sure what to expect, but man. This place I’m sure is a real treat in person but hands down amazing food. Kind of wish they had more options but I’m in no way disappointed. Great job by this place! Amazing product

Excellent! I wish I could have taken a picture, but it was so delicious, we couldn't stop ourselves long enough to snap a pic! We had the carbonara and pollo picatta. The chicken was tender, veggies cooked to perfection and the carbonara was delicious. Even the bread was perfect.

I found this restaurant a few months ago and it has become my favorite Italian in Broward county. Family owned and operated by lovely people. Great service and superb food and wine selection. I've never had anything I did not thoroughly enjoy.

With so many Italian restaurants that are subpar or just less then acceptable, Di Valle's is the real deal family run, great food, simple elegance Italian restaurant. When one of my and my wife's favorite Italian restaurants decided to remove half their menu start serving breakfast, lunch and dinner we were saying why can't someone just have good food and be successful on that. Well I'm happy to say we tried Di Vallie and it is truly amazing food, simple but elegant setting and fantastic staff which just happens to be the family and owner. Not only is menu excellent, but all the specials go above and beyond. We had the Osso Bucco and Bronzino. The Bronzino was in a light lemon sauce and cooked to perfection. The Osso Bucco was probably one of the best I ever had. So tender, most and full of flavor. 100% will be our go to place for upscale Italian food in a relaxed setting. This is not a pizza place. It's true Italian home style cook.
If you’re considering this restaurant for dinner… congratulations!! You’ve found a hidden gem of Fort Lauderdale!! What an amazing Italian restaurant tucked away. Absolutely amazing food and nice atmosphere. Must visit no matter if you’re a tourist or a local!

The food and service was excellent, my compliments to the chef and the waitress Keyri they were great. It's a small family restaurant with an excellent menu. The appetizers and entrées were very tasty and the desserts were phenomenal. If you are around the area give this place a chance you won't regret it.

Fantastic food and excellent service. Enjoyed complementary bruchetta appetizer. We ordered spaghetti cabonara and chicken picatta both were excellent.
