Hands down the best Italian food in South Florida! From the incredible quality of the dishes to the warm and attentive service, this restaurant truly stands out. Today, our office ordered Friday lunch for delivery, and it was nothing short of perfection. The food arrived fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—it felt like we were transported to an authentic Italian kitchen. We shared dishes family-style, sampling each other’s plates, and every bite was absolutely divine. It turned our typical workday into a joyful gathering, filled with laughter and delicious food. Whether you’re dining in, ordering takeout, or enjoying delivery, this place nails it every time. Amazing food, fantastic service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We couldn’t be happier and can’t recommend this gem enough. Do yourself a favor—order today or stop by for an unforgettable Italian experience! I ordered Zappa Di Pesce one of my favorites.

I can’t say enough great things about Cafe Vico!! It’s always a wonderful experience dining with them. My husband and I recently got married and hosted our wedding dinner in thier private dining room. Nina and Marco treated us like family during the planning process. The night of the dinner the staff was excellent and they executed so well on the food and the service . It was an amazing event and am very grateful for this gem of a restaurant in Fort Lauderdale!

This hidden gem features fine Italian cuisine in a quaint environment with semi-private areas for groups and families. Hidden in the corner of a small shopping center the restaurant has excellently food variety and friendly staff. The service is exceptional and you get treated like family from the minute you walk in. No stone gets unturned and you get things your way no matter if celebrating a special occasion or just splitting a salad with your spouse. We’ve tried a few of the appetizers and the calamari is our favorite. Can’t go wrong with any of the entrees and depending on preference you can order seafood ravioli or classic chicken or veal Parmesan. Wine selection is also great.
