My husband and I took my brother-in-law to this restaurant tonight to celebrate his birthday. We tried three different daily specials and also we each had a desert. I thought the service was good but the food was just okay, it was not bad but not amazing. The atmosphere had very dim lighting and it had a small selections of... more

This is the place. I have lived in the Fort Lauderdale area for over 35 years and dined in many of the restaurants that they offer. I have searched for the perfect Italian dining experience that would make me stop trying other establishments. This is THE place. The dining area is is comfortable and not crowded. There are several areas... more

Having read great reviews, we had high expectations. However, the food was, at best, disappointing. I wanted to have putanesca with spagetti, instead of penne, and without anchovies. The waiter assured me that my request was no problem. My meal was delivered with penne, instead of spagetti, and had an overwhelming anchovie flavor. Before ordering, I asked if the putanesca... more

My wife and I dined at Cafe Vico and found the food was very good but had just a couple of comments.

After reading all the incredible reviews about Cafe Vico- I guess I was really expecting something special. The menu was incredibly extensive but the food very average. The portobello mushroom was very small and quite insulting at $14.00 for an appetitizer. The Shrimp/angle hair pasta was quite nice- but really we didn't get the overall experience. They did not even... more
