After enjoying a delicious dinner and great service here with my family last weekend, we decided to cater in from Agliolios for my daughters High School graduation party last night. The food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed the thin tender juicy chicken parm, dripping with gooey mozzarella cheese. The authentic mouthwatering meatballs smothered in amazing homemade sauce and the fresh and steamy baked penne was excellent. The warm buttery garlic bread alone is a major attraction. The portions were huge making this an amazing value and the service was incredibly attentive and hospitable. Â I highly recommend Agliolios for dining in and catering.
Review Source:Heard great things about this restaurant so we had to try it. We certainly were not disappointed. The service was perfect. Friendly, attentive and accommodating. The food was absolutely superb. The choices were plentiful and everything is super fresh and homemade. The prices are on the low to medium end which made it even better! Â I highly recommend Agliolio!!
Review Source:Went there for dinner tonight. It was just OK in my book. Started with the crab stuffed mushrooms. Those came our piping hot and tasted very good. The House Salad was iceberg lettuce. Nothing spectacular. I ordered the Chicken Franchese. Tasty dish and pasta pene was perfect. Service was very good. But, I compare this restaurant to Olive Garden and think Olive Garden was better.
Review Source:So, this new Italian restaurant recently opened by my house. Â Of course I had to check it out. Â I came here for a lunch with my sister. Â They offered lunch specials. Â
I ended up ordering a salad with balsamic dressing. Â The dressing was great. Â They serve instead of garlic rolls slices of thick sour dough type bread with olive oil and spices. Â The bread was great and they do bring more if you want. Â My sis ordered a creamy tomato soup that she really enjoyed in addition a pasta dish.
The service was friendly and efficient. Â I though the food and atmosphere was good. Â I would love to come back.
Stopped by on a Friday night, got a table in the lounge immediately. Plenty of empty booths was we were told it would be a 15 minute wait for one. Service was quick, attentive. Salad was disappointing. Lots of iceberg barely sprinkled with diced tomatoes and black olives.The bread with olive oil was very good. We ordered eggplant parmesan and fettucine alfredo. The great part is that my husband was able to add mushrooms and spinach to his fettucine. However, the dish arrived looking soupy, the sauce didnt cling to the pasta the way an alfredo should. My eggplant parmesan was wonderful, not greasy or deep fried. I ordered penne on the side with a vodka sause. The vodka sauce was amazing! The penne was poorly cooked, flat and a little bit shy of al dente. We were offered dessert to make up for the pasta and we chose the tiramisu. It was so light, and fresh and wonderful! I would only go back during happy hour as the drink and wine prices are a bit steep ( 10.00 for a glass of Pinot, 10.00 for their signature Momma -rita) . We will definitely try Agliolio again, its in the neighborhood and the staff is wonderful.
Review Source:I went here in the middle of the week just after happy hour so I dont know what I missed. There place was a little empty. The left side of the place seems like a nice restaurant and the right side seems out of place. Its the bar area. Awkward placement. The whole bar area seems to be in the spotlight. There are wrap around windows which are left without any window coverings. I dont mean that the blinds were open. I mean, they dont even own a window shade. Transplant this establishment to the Intracoastal or overlooking a nice sheep farm in Ireland, and I'd say "nice touch". However, overlooking the parking lot of a aging strip mall is not the view anyone wants to see. The bartender was nice and attentive. She didn't have a choice. No one was really in the place. I ordered a mini-pizza white pizza with meatballs) and was glad to learn that it came with a salad and bread. I was actually going to order a soup so it saved me money (lost them money) but kinda stripped me from getting a chance to taste their soup. The place seems to like to do things in the excess. My drink had a lot of ice. The salad was good (cold and had a nice selection of items) but had way too much dressing. The dressing was good, but too much of it. The bread by the way was a little bit un-restaurant-like. It was just kinda cheap bread cut into slices and toasted. Keeping with tradition, they put so much butter on it, that it made the bread so soggy it resembled bread you just plucked out of a swimming pool. The pizza dough had a very good taste and texture. I love white pizza and order whenever I find a place that offers it. What I never like is parmesan cheese and there was plenty of it built into it. The pizza was on the dry side. The meatballs had a good taste but again, the parmesan cheese ruined it for me. I want to give the place another try and see how the pasta and the sauce is.
Update- I went again on a Monday to try another dish. The salad this time was drier and almost lacking taste. I declined the bread this time because I was having a larger meal...and asked if I wanted bread. Last time it just appeared next to me and my salad. I ordered the pasta with marinara sauce and breaded chicken. For some reason, I did not see "Chicken parmesan" as a choice of meat on the menu so I ordered the breaded chicken. during my meal I was thinking "how odd that chicken parmesan was not even an option" and it wasnt until I got home and looked at the online menu that I saw it was in fact on the menu. I was going to take full blame for not seeing it but then I started to think "wait a second, its not totally my fault". Its partly their fault for choosing the placement of their items on the menu right? And with that being said, "Chicken Parmesan" is more requested than plain breaded chicken and therefor should be listed near the top of the list of meat choices and not at the bottom. Of course I should have studied the list until I found it. Its not like there was 4 pages of meat choices. But still, a distracted diner talking with friends or family could miss it like I did.
Moving on, I got the food in a reasonable amount of time. The pasta was on the same plate as the chicken, but contained within a separate plate. The chicken was large and thin and a little bit on the dry side. Not complainable dry, but drier than it should be. The chicken had a nice taste. The breading was a little crispy, which I love but I could see people maybe not liking it that crispy. There was no sauce on top, bottom, or as a side for dipping with the chicken. I think that would have been a good choice for the restaurant to add to the plate being that they are serving a plain piece of breaded chicken. The pasta was pretty good. You have to remember the pasta is fresh and has that home-made pasta texture/taste. Many people who dont like living outside of the norm would need to know ahead of time that this restaurant uses this type of pasta. Obviously I knew this going in and was actually the driving force to get me in. I chose the marinara because I wanted to know what their traditional sauce tasted like. It was a little too paste-like. It was seasoned nicely but dry. I got the hint of "spicy" but it wasn't overpowering. I'm still debating if it even was spicy. Weird, I know. I had a strong drink and I think I killed my spice-buds.
I took the day off from work because I was fighting a bad sinus infection (TMI?). Â I decided to come by here for some lunch because I noticed online that they have a (vegetarian) tomato bisque soup. Â At lunch, they have a bunch of different specials that are reasonably priced. Â
I ordered the angel hair Agliolio, but for the pasta, I requested spinach-roasted garlic linguini. Â The soup and bread was fantastic. Â The pasta was a little tough, but that might be because I ordered the healthier option. Â It was not bad but I would not order that again.
However, I do have a craving sometimes for that soup. Â It was definitely worth the trip. Â When I am up for another cheat day, outside my "bodybuilder" diet, I will keep this place on the top of my list. Â Oh and the staff was very friendly and quick. Â Kudos for good service!
My wife and I stopped by here because I was in the mood for Italian.
She had the spaghetti and the Sunday gravy sauce which included meatballs and sausage and added mushrooms, they have a great "create your own pasta" menu.
I had the fusilli in agliolio sauce which is olive oil, garlic and roasted garlic. Â My pasta came as a side to the mahi mahi special which was a Parmesan crusted mahi filet fried to perfection smothered in butter.
One typical gripe I have with most restaurants in Florida is that they don't salt enough because of all the geezers with high blood pressure. Â This was a minor problem at Agliolio, they only required a pinch of salt to bring the meal to perfection.
Our meal, Glass of wine, glass of Sweet Tea, Fried Mozzarella appetizer, spaghetti and Sunday sauce, two ceaser salads (up charge for ceasars) and Mahi Mahi special came to less than $55 not including the tip which we were glad to include because the service was spot on
We'll definitely be back
Home-made fresh pasta hmmmmm. I was skeptical! We waited about 15 minutes and the place was packed. Unfortunately there was a little confusion at the hostess desk and we decided to leave. That is when we met Amy. As we walked out Amy stopped us and asked if we would reconsider and give them a try. Amy seemed very interested in earning our business so we decided to give them a try. WOW! The service was world class and the food better yet. It felt like my aunt was in the kitchen after I tasted the home-made cavateli with meat balls. They told me they actually let the meatballs sit in the tomato sauce for 24 hours to soak, UNBELIEVABLE ! Our server Danielle was so knowledgable, she actually took us on a menu journey and romanced the preparation process of the food we chose. Thank you for bringing this fine Italian restaurant to Boynton beach. The only thing wrong was the price. It was under priced for the quality of the food and the overall experience. If you want a great meal, great service at a great price this is the place! Thank you Danielle and Amy for your recovery service. You made a believer out of me.
