September 16, 2009 Wednesday evening our party of 4 adults and 1 toddler, had dinner at Pranzo. Each of us ordered different dishes. The toddler had the Macaroni and Cheese. Very very good. Pollo Rollotini for 1 adult, very very good. Shrimp Scampi and Alfredo Fetticini. Another dish was a bow tie dish with peas, chicken etc. We also had... more

My family (not me) needed a break from seafood, so tried Pranzo despite mixed reviews here. Food was pretty good if not imaginative, with a good wine selection & prices comparable with the area. However our server was condescending & seemed annoyed that we were there. Perhaps our casual dress gave an impression we were not savvy diners, but our... more

I lived in Italy for three years and was very excited to try Pranzo, since it claimed to be "authentic." The atmosphere of the restaurant is upscale and believable. The food, on the other had is a totally different story. The food was overpriced. Everything had too much salt on it. The pasta was so soft it was like eating... more

My family ate here ONCE. The whole evening was entirely vanilla, from ambience to food presentation. The meal was not even as good as you expect from Olive Garden....that's sorta' sad for a chain to beat out a family owned restaurant. The servings came out slow, and were small.....not only was the quantity limited, but the quality of the food... more

I have had the opportunity to dine in Italian restaurants all over the country and Pranzo is the best I have ever had. Almost every item one the menu is excellent, from the traditional Italian dishes to the new and contemporary. In regards to desserts, they have the best tiramisu I have ever tasted. The service is consistently superior because... more

Hey, scampi is garlic sauce whether you eat it in FWB or Milan. And we got 5 shrimp, 5 very large shrimp. And the Frank Sinatra music was great and appropriate(even though it was mostly Tony Bennett). Service was quite good as well. Despite the previous review, this is a good place to eat. It is not the French Laundry... more

Anyone who thinks this is a good Italian Restaurant doesn't know Italian. My wife's Lasanga was just OK and my scampi and pasta was nothing but four shrimp swimming in garlic sauce. No forks or spoons necessary just a straw and your fingers. And please play something else but old Frank Sinatra music. Avoid if you like real Italian. more

We went early for a good seat and service. A well trained staff answered questions about the ingredients in the dishes, kept the glasses full and served a great meal. Try the Pollo Romano for a delicious meal. This was our second outing to Pranzo's. The food and service are good and the prices reflect that. more

Best dining experience ever. Food was spectacular, service was perfect, and prices were reasonable. The Lobster ravioli was out of this world. Their signature lasagna was awesome. And the veal with prosciutto was divine. If you haven't been to Pranzo's on Okaloosa Island, you are missing a world class dining experience. more

We had our daughter's wedding reception at Pranzo's in Ft. Walton Beach FL. We live out of state and had never eaten there before but it was recommended to us. We had it in the outdoor covered patio which was perfect! The wait staff was the best of most any restaurant I have eaten in. The food was awesome!!! I... more
