About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
At Molino's Ristorante, owner and native Italian Kanuccio Purisico captivates diners with a menu of mouthwatering Northern Italian fare. Dishes of calamari fritti, and clams oreganato entice appetites, and burbling waterfalls beckon outdoors as patrons find themselves in sunny Adriatic here in beautiful Bonita Springs. Our culinary team dazzle guests with authentic dishes such as the lambata di vitello alla griglia, a grilled veal chop accessorized with hot cherry peppers and mushrooms, or the rollatine melanzane, ricotta cheese rolled into thinly sliced eggplant and topped with tomato sauce. For those searching for ocean-fresh seafood try our salmone onde e terra, a cut of broiled salmon luxuriously lounging in a rich cognac sauce with a posse of peas, prosciutto, and mushrooms.

    Poor service. Our waiter never came back to check on our food or drink. I ordered my fish firm and it came lightly cooked and I sent it back. Came back not much better. Flavor was good, but wayyy too salty. We really wanted to like it here but we probably won’t be back

    This is an excellent Italian restaurant with many Northern Italian menu items and great ambiance. A first class wine list and great service staff complement a very accomplished culinery staff.

    We lucked out and got Eddy as our server again! We were just there last week but had such a great experience with both food and service, we decided to have our anniversary dinner there too! It was all excellent and we appreciate Eddy’s attention to detail and warm demeanor. We will be back!

    Service was great, but food was only okay. No kids menu (or drink menu), but they did offer kid portions. Very pricey for the quality of food.

    The quality of the food has gone down since I was here last. The calamari tasted like it had been frozen and my husbands alfredo sauce was not good. Our bread was stale. Our waitress was wonderful and my lobster ravioli was very good.
