Casola's Pizzeria & Sub Shop

Overall rating: ★★★★

It was the second time I visited this place. I was in the mood for a real burger – one with seasoned patties, sauces other than ketchup, and plenty of taste - , and we were already in Coral Gables.

Casola’s is a very simple place, which could use additional cleaning. They offer pizzas, subs, and burgers. I have only tried the burgers with French fries. They were delicious! Burger was tasty, a little greasy, and interesting. Casola’s opens late and only accepts cash.

D'Angelo Pizza

Restaurant website: http://www.dangelopizza.com/

Overall rating: ★★★★

Two weeks ago we went to this restaurant for the first time. I was personally very curious about it as I pass it frequently. D’Angelo would be your classic trattoria with a modern decoration. Their menu is mostly pizzas, salads, tapas, and of course gelati. The pasta would be in their daily specials.

In our first visit we started with the zucchini flowers with mozzarella – the cheese melts in your mouth, it is a refreshing combination of vegetable and dairy; and the mozzarella and tomato salad – the mozzarella they used was really fresh, soft, and tasty.

As main course we had two of the specials: roasted chicken – seasoned with rosemary and roasted until tender and juicy; and trout with a crust of pistachio – the fish was fresh and for me it was the first time that I saw this combination.

For dessert, following the recommendation of our waiter, we tried the creme brulee. I know it is not your classic Italian dessert, we just couldn’t resist – it was delicious! Next time we’ll try the gelati.

Broadwalk Restaurant and Grill - Riverside Pizza

Last week we tried this pizzeria in Hollywood Beach Boardwalk. We have been curious about it for a while. According to our friends it is the best pizza place on the Boardwalk. Since I have only had this one I am not sure if it is the best or not. It is actually pretty good. Our server was very nice and accommodating. Prices are great for the value.

Antonio's Pizza

This week I decided to try Antonio's Pizza for the first time. We had the spinach pizza and it was really good. The service was fast – we had take out. The crust was light and tasty, and the vegetables well cooked with a lot of flavor. It is a great option for any night of the week (except Mondays since they are closed). They also deliver in the Dania Beach area.
