   This was not our first time at Il Mulino and we were disappointed. Tried to order salmon medium rare or rare and was told they would only make it medium to medium well. I ordered chicken balsamic and asked to only have the spinach and not the pasta that came with it. The server didn’t indicate that to only have the spinach (that was part of the dish)there would be a $9.50 surcharge. The $9.50 was just put on the bill. My spouse ordered the rigatoni and the pasta was more than undercooked and the chicken was over cooked. We did not send it back as we were with friends and didn’t want to complain and wait for something else as service was slow to begin with-the restaurant was full. When dining with friends-something we do often-if we want separate checks we ask for them at the time of ordering. Our server assumed that’s what we wanted and provided us with separate bills. It was a tad awkward. We drive 40 Minutes to come to the restaurant and won’t be hurrying back.

   It has been a while since I had food this mediocre. At first I was turned off by the exterior and interior finishes, but figured, hey, a family owned restaurant would probably be decent — I was wrong. Olive Garden would have been a step up. The “garlic rolls” had garlic so raw and sharp our group was tasting garlic hours after we left. When asked if they could serve an entrée meat dish without a bed of pasta we were told it was impossible. All of the tastings of wine were so vinagre-y they seemed like they were poured out of bottles that had been open for a week. The focaccia was akin to cardboard. Please go to Vico’s down the street, you will be sooo much happier.

   50$ for Rodney Strong wine is overpriced. Service was good. Calamari at $18 for 18 small rings/no legs with average taste was overpriced. Anelli bread was dry. When asking waiter for more marinara sauce to moisten it was told that would be an upcharge of 4$. We had to ask for bread and it was average. The waiter was pleasant and efficient. After a 2 year absence our party of 4 eas disappointed at the changes. Dinner for 2 with gratuity was @ 160$. With so many wonderful Italian restaurants in our city we would have to reconsider I’ll Mulino…..and this was a mid-week outing not weekend or holiday.

   We arrived a few minutes early for our reservation. We were asked to wait for a few minutes. In the meantime people walked in off the street with no reservation and were seated immediately? Didn’t bother us but rather rude. Obviously they had tables. We got seated at a table for two and many tables were open during our dinner. They seated a nice couple beside us. Despite the fact a multitude of other tables for two were open? They didn’t seem to be considerate of the clients too much. A table for two would indicate some privacy is desired? Not a lot of smiling from the general team either. The waiter was very friendly and got us setup with drinks and took our order. We enjoyed our drinks and waited a reasonable amount of time for our meals. My order was incorrect. I had requested a substitution for pasta. They took quite some time to bring me the pasta and then it had the wrong sauce. Which they then Had to replace. In the meantime I had eaten the main course. Sadly the waiter made this mistake and compounded it which isn’t the end of world but defeats the purpose of the meal being served correctly. If he had written our orders down he would not likely made the mistake in the first place. If he did he could’ve referred to the order when correcting it and realized the correct combination that had been requested. We spend a lot of time in restaurants and have done so my entire life. The food here was very good but again other than the waiter we found some pretty solid indifference to our being there and the mixup with the order while nothing overly critical was still rather disappointing. So I give them good marks for food quality and mid marks on service and low marks on overall ambience.

   Our server Luca was amazing. I hope I got his name right because I’ll be requesting him for future visits. Great appetizers and dinner, beautiful and delicious. My favorite pasta spot in Fort Lauderdale for sure.

    And I’ll Molinos two times in the last two weeks. I asked the server last night if I got a new chef, the food was excellent she said no it’s the same shift. I hats off to him. Food was great. I don’t know the servers name she was busy, but she did a great job also. See you again next week.

    Delicious food and great service! Gigi, our server was excellent! My husband had the eggplant and said it was crispy and excellent. I had the lasagna. The pasta was light and was prepared perfectly with the amount of cheeses. Sauce was very good Desserts were great! I had the almond basket and it was a great choice. My husband had the flourless chocolate cake with ice cream both were excellent. There was a good amount of people dining for a Wednesday evening. I Would highly recommend.

    Appetizers and entrées all delicious – special osso bucco exceptionally delicious. Service was good, portions bountiful, and a lovely environment. Only complaint is the restaurant air conditioning made it too cold and unpleasant to sit there and dine. Have complained to management, but they told us we were sitting on the warm side of the restaurant. Need to work on their thermostat. This is the second time it’s been brutally cold, and really ruins in otherwise lovely dinner.

    Our party of 4 arrived on time for our 7:30 birthday dinner reservation. We had to wait 20 minutes to be seated, which was aggravating. Anything more than 5 minutes is excessive when you’ve made a reservation. Aside from the initial delay, everything else was good. The garlic rolls are delicious and the calamari was some of the best I’ve had. I wish I had ordered the Chicken Parmigiana like the other 3 in my party. I ordered Chicken Piccata and it just wasn’t very good. I would return but I’d order something else next time. Service was prompt and food came out quickly.

    Everything was excellent except for the fact that now they charge if you want extra marinara sauce on the side, four dollars for a small dish of about 2 ounces. That’s ridiculous.

    Waited a little bit to sit down, but that’s expected on a Friday night. Then when we got to the table our server came over quickly and we told him we needed a minute for the menu. He then didn’t come back for like 7-10 mins. Essentially we were at the restaurant for over 2 hours. A little slow on the service side, but otherwise wonderful

    We went yesterday for the time. We made reservation 5 days in advance and when we came to the restaurant the table was not available. I understand that you can wait 5-10' but this time we waited 35' until our table was available. Therefore, I don't understand why the accept reservation over OpenTable if they can honor them on an acceptable timeframe. Service and food was ok.

    Waiter was unfriendly and could not care less. I have been going to this restaurant since 1997. The restaurant increased its prices great AND decreased the portion size. I can see doing one or the other during these times but not both. There are to many other Italian restaurants now-a-days in Fort Lauderdale to eat at like Louis Bossi’s and Del Frisco. I think this restaurant just has not adjusted to the competition. I probably will move on after 27 loyal years.

    Server was great-food was excellent and plentiful, garlic rolls, awesome, and a nice atmosphere with comfortable booths. Only complaint was freezing, cold air conditioning which we asked about and they did not adjust. Made a wonderful dinner, unpleasant, and ruined the evening because we were all so extremely cold and uncomfortable. Great restaurant if they’d listen to their customers and adjust AC accordingly.

    Definitely not as good as I remember it First sat us at a tiny booth for two We are not big people but we really needed to suck it in to sit. Asked for another table and they moved us next to a line of people picking up take out It felt like we were eating in the kitchen The food wasn’t terrible but not what it used to be. Pretty disappointed.
