Recently found great review [--](these guys love pastina same as I do) and decided to give it a try. Basically, place is a bit pricey and too loud for my taste, but service is excellent and, most important, pastina tastes great (and that matters most). Highly recommended more

I have heard about Cafe Martorano's for a long time and was aware of the fact that it was a pricey restaurant. I don't mind paying the price if the service, atmosphere, and quality of the food are ALL excellent. On this particular dining experience, it consisted of a party of 6. The waiter was forcefully friendly and appeared to... more

Rude hostess, rude waiters. No one smiles. It's like we owe them something for being there. The food went down, prices are still high. We used to go often until we waited for 4 hours for a table for 3. Told my husband never, but he convinced me to try again this year. Sorry we did. The place was empty,... more

Now the new Cafe Martarano - a glitzy white stage for food as theatre.... more

I was on vacation to Fort Lauderdale May 5th and Cafe Martorano was on my must do list of places to eat. I was definitely not disappointed. Expensive but worth it. It shouldn't be a shock to anyone unless they just walked off the street, read the website, they don't hold anything from you. I just loved it, and I... more

While staying in Ft. Lauderdale this past week on a business , pleasure week , I ate at Martoranos after it being highly recomended. Well I have to say the food is very good, however make sure your heart is prepared to take the shock of the very over priced menu. Our party of 8 ate family style at the... more

At first we were skeptical about coming here. We knew the meals were expensive and with al the buzz with celebrities, we thought the place would be overrated. How wrong we were!! The food was outstanding!! The waiter actually picked out entrees and they were all just so delicious. You have to go there and have their Meatball with Salad... more

This restaurant is very loud. A little too loud for me. Me and my dw enjoyed the food but this is no place for grand parents, people with hearing problems or those who want to have a good conversation with their diner companion. I had the chicken wings with mac and cheese. The wings were good but the mac and... more
