    Friends of ours recommended Ragù to us. It did not disappoint. As soon as we walked into the restaurant we felt a bit of Italy. The smells coming from the kitchen were awesome! The decor, white table cloths and spotless floors were the next things to draw us in. There were 4 in our party, with each of us ordering something different. All 4 of us loved our meals as well as the crusty bread and artichoke appetizer. Do yourself a favor and book a table at Ragu. We will definitely return.

    Whenever we get to Florida, we love to go to RAGU. We take my mother-in-law there. She is 92 and the restaurant is so kind to her. The two men running RAGU are incredibly friendly and they produce some great food. If you like ‘Neighborhood Gens,’ this is a place to go to again and again!

    I am retired and live at my home just north of Roma 🇮🇹 9 months of the year. The food here is both extremely delicious it is extremely authentic Italian. Yes they do have veal And chicken parmigiana both are good even though you won’t find it anywhere in Italy …. I. Like to try the real Italian trattoria dishes …. Pasta Carbonara, vela saltimbocca ala romana, the octopus dishes (normally a special of the day) amazing…. BTW the bread and pizza dough is fresh made in the restaurant…. Yes there is a small pizza menu too. The wine list is small but very good and excellent prices…. The service is friendly and responsive…. … You will really enjoy to dinner!
