The service was great. Our server gave us great recommendations for appetizers and guided us through the menu. The place was very crowded and with lots of kids so it was a bit noisy. But overall a great place with great food.

Believe the Hype This place is legit. Rustic interior bars, tables, and booths The outdoor garden dining is beautiful and reminds me of RH. Now the food. It's a delicious charcuterie board (house-made salumi cheese is from Italy) and pasta pizza, and the star of our dinner was the Branzino (it's a must) hostess. Kimberly was welcoming and super friendly, and Sean (the manager) keeps checking on us, which we appreciate. Make sure to request Carly as your server or waitress, and thank us later. Carly was awesome. Very attentive, helpful, and funny. Louie Bossi is a must when in Fort Lauderdale.

The hostess check in was absolute chaos . Nobody follows up, checked in when we arrived early to our reservation and was told to check back at 7:30 our reservation time..Went back table still not available due to a party. checked in once again said it was not guaranteed to be outside. Finally sat us by a meat locker 🤣 Not anything close to outside. Ran out of sunday special early. The food we did order was great but overall stressful experience.

5 stars from start to finish! Slight wait though we had reservations-accommodated us with a table outside. Our server was Carly, she was very attentive & personable & explained menu items. Timed & fired our meal properly-gave us suggestions for dessert. The food was Fantastic! We had the rice balls & Caesar for starters, allaNorma rigatoni-linguini & clams & raditore bolonase. Have not been in quite sometime but will definitely be back.

Ordered the Shrimp risotto with mushrooms and it was almost not edible. The risotto was clumped together and hard, and so many mushrooms that it was all you could taste. Normally we enjoy eating everything here, but this time was a big miss.

Food was delicious. Very lively (loud) atmosphere so probably not the top choice for a quiet or romantic night out. But if you want great food and a good Italian wine list, look no further.

I found out they have a internal policy of limiting customers to a stay of 2 hours during weekends. It was weird to make a reservation and when arriving being informed that you have 2 hours to eat and leave. It was very unwelcoming.

For a special date for us, we choose a special place like Louie Bossi. We were celebrating our 23rd anniversary. The patio ( outside) is fantastic. Our waiter , Willi, is an awesome person. Great memory, gave us great suggestions for the plates and the wine. The food also was delicious. The only problem that I had was that my reservation was at 9:30 pm , We arrived at 9;20, the lay standing at the door with the laptop in her hand, said that in less than I would received a text messages to my phone. After 15 min of waiting I went to the nice lady ( host ) that is receiving all the client in the desktop and she immediately gave me our table. She was very nice, the other lady not. The rest the place is just outstanding.

Great, great dining experience! We ordered the Fungi Misti pizza and it was spot on. Then ordered Carbonara, linguine con vongole, and linguine frutti di mare, each was outstanding. We sat on front patio but would like to try the back patio next time - both great but back patio seemed more like visiting Italy.

We have been to this place a couple of times before. It is always very loud and busy. The food was in the past pretty good. This time it was just average. The service was disappointing. We ordered a bottle of wine. After 30 minutes the waitress finally comes back after I asked her to check on our wine and told us they are out of it. I ordered another bottle and told her to bring it right away. She did not show up anymore. In the meantime we go our food which was just average. Another waitress finally helped out. But at this point we could not enjoy our meal anymore. The manager came over after we asked for him wondering what the problem is. Finally apologized and offered a free desert but we don’t have a sweet tooth. Should have taken the wine of the check since it was not the bottle we wanted and came out 45 minutes late... we won’t go back to this place. There are better restaurants at Las Olas with better service and food.
