"In glad I found this place! The food was excellent. I was able to recommend to a friend who hasn't lived in Destin long. Don't forget your kiddie cup if you have children you don't want drinking out of a glass. My 2 year old was ok with it but I was paranoid. Hopefully they'll invest in disposable cups for kids soon. Other than that if I lived here locally it would be a place I frequented for great food."

"There were 3 of us for dinner. The service was was fast, attentive and friendly. We were seated immediately. Our server was friendly and very knowledgable of the menu. The wait time in between entrees was perfect. I don't like my salads and appetizer at the same time. The food was very tasty especially the crab dip appetizer. I ordered spaghetti and meatballs and I enjoyed it. I would recommend this restaurant for a med priced italian dinner."

"We were a party of 6 with a toddler. Food was fabulous and the service excellent. We will definately be back for lumch or dinner on our next trip to Destin area. I cant believe we have been coming to Destin for years and never found Pranzos until now. To think of all the wonderful brunches and dinners we missed!!"

"Richard & Terry were our servers and they were great. Before we could even ask for something, it was there. There was a live band and the atmosphere was festive. The food was lusciois. Seafood & lobster ravioli were great. We went back on SSunday for brunch. It was wonderful as well. We both really enjoyed it."

"After a good meal, we left my credit card at the restaurant.
I discovered this the next day, some 250 miles away.
I called and they had found it and are sending it to me
A continuation of the excellent service we received during our meal
Thanks"

"Pranzo is slightly off the beaten path across from another "neighborhood gem" in Pandora's. I've lived in Fort Walton Beach for four years and was only just told about Pranzo. I will certainly go back to this restraunt. The food was perfectly cooked and seasoned. While I had the tuna which was $32(worth every penny) everything else seemed to be pretty cheap."

"Wonderful crab dip with large pieces of crabs. Bread and three different dips to suit anyone. Seafood cannelloni also very good and such generous portions. Prices are very fair and its a nice change from all of the 'fish n chips' at the beach restaurants. Quiet place, we just happen to have a fairly large group nearby celebrating. Nice wine list."

"7 people seated in a very tight spot.5:30 res. no one in the place. Server-new rushed.Was in a hurry to get orders. Mahi smelled so strong others at table commented on odor. Egg plant parm was like a sponge when touched with a fork. Lasagna noodles were like cardboard,thin sauce. Chicken parm-good,and other entree good. Had to send back cool clam chowder soup.....Owner nor manager addressed our issues.Waiter did remove several items from final bill, but management did not speak with us. We are locals and have been patrons over the last 10 years, this was very dissapointing. May not ever return."
