For years, I declared this was my favorite Fort Lauderdale restaurant, although I’ll admit a part of that reason was that I could walk to it. It’s exactly the kind of spot you want in your neighborhood: unassuming, reasonably priced and regularly excellent. The menu is a limited collection of favorites, like the chicken valentino, but the long list of daily specials read aloud by the servers often include a massive antipasti plate with a “surprise,” lobster ravioli and a whole branzino charred crisp in the pizza oven. Regular’s tip: get aglio e olio pasta on the side of the whole fish for a meal that feels very Italian.
