Best Italian Restaurants in Pompano Beach

Always a great evening when dining at Martaranos! Never disappointed and never leave still hungry! Top notch and first class all the way!

Fantastic small Italian restaurant with excellent service. We started with a special the beet carpaccio salad. It was a beautiful and delicious presentation and plenty for three os us to share with the house baked bread. We all had pasta or gnocchi for our mains. The homemade pasta was fantastic with each sauce a perfect complement. My husband said it was the best bolognese he has had. Finished with one delicious warm apple tart for the table. Salvatore was our capable server.

Simply perfect! The staff are authentic + outstanding! So friendly + welcoming. The food exceptional! Black linguine w/mussels, lobster, clams + shrimp! So fresh! My husband had a Veal Florentino! He could not stop raving. Thank you for such a memorable night dining with you. We will spread the word!

We love dining here! We always take family and friends, when they visit. The food is incredibly delicious. The service is always superb. The atmosphere & live entertainment adds to an unforgettable dining experience. Homemade pasta, a delicious assortment of appetizers, entrees & desserts make it a challenge in choosing what to eat. With so many great options, you simply want to come back..again and again!

Our Christmas Eve/birthday dinner was an exceptional treat for this party of 4. We made reservations for 7pm and were promptly seated. The ambiance is old time local family Italian American style- just the atmosphere that I was looking to share with my best friend and our two sons; neither of whom had ever experienced the magical “Feast of the Seven Fishes”, which Anthony’s was featuring this day (they also featured several non-fish and vegetarian dishes if you can’t or don’t like seafood/shellfish) Bread and dipping oils/butter were placed and quickly devoured by the crew. We ordered various appetizers including the fried calamari with a side cup of sauce and roasted grape tomatoes, buratta cheese with prosciutto, Caesar salad, beet and orange salad. Our entrees were varied , with a delicious pork ossobuco with rigatoni , beautifully braised and season; grouper francese with penne in lieu of the asparagus and mashed potatoes that were the sides; fiocchi alla carbonara (pear and cheese “purses” similar to small ravioli with a creamy carbonara. All delicious and warm. Desserts? Cannoli, lava cake with vanilla ice cream (like a deconstructed tortoni), amaretto di Saronno , and crème brûlée. Interestingly enough , no one selected the feast fish, which consisted of clams, mussels, mahi, shrimp, crab, lobster bits and scallops . I am in love with neighborhood mom and pops. The prices were not over the top, but the good and service were! Thanks, Anthony’s . Can’t wait for your Easter menu!
