From start to finish, great service, pleasant atmosphere and very good food. Making reservations for my daughter-dad night out was a breeze. We arrived promptly on time and had a cordial greeting at the door and were promptly seated. The AC was perfect. Much bigger inside than the outside indicated. theres a cozy bar and comfortable seating. The wait staff is awesome, smiles and pleasant banter. The menu is limited, however, consider that a good thing as it appears the chef focuses on quality versus cranking out 100 generic plates. Both pasta dishes were awesome -- and I was stationed in Italy for three years and know good Italian food. The tomato soup is creamy and satisfying -- very much so. My carbonara was nice and rich. My daughter loved her spaghetti and sauce with basil. The flan dessert was entirely sinful and worthy of doubling up on. And I hear theres brick oven pizza available on Thursday. Im plotting a Thursday visit.

Disappointed with food, not service. At 12:00 today we ordered chicken alfredo and an Italiano panini. The pasta would be a lovely al dente, however it was a bit dried out (yellowing) , happens by a microwave or sitting too long, which is what I suspect bc the fettuccine pasta sucked up the alfredo sauce. This always happens, but usually at the table as eating. Sauce has an authentic parm/asiago blend that is rich, but a bit too thick (tight), again I think bc it sat too long. The panini ISNT a panini, ( in loosest terms toasted, but traditionally grilled) it was a slightly warm 6" sub. I would have enjoyed a panini from the Fresh Market for $5.99 (weekly special) much more, same quality ingredients w/a substantial difference, a panini!

Absolutely, the BEST Italian Restaurant, in all of Panama City, Panama City Beach or Bay County, Florida. Everything is homemade, fresh & Delicious !!! Mike Ferrucci, is from Napoli, Italy, so you know youre getting the real deal. He & his wife Ingrid, own Ferruccis. He manages, cooks, she manages. Both lovely people & their staff is friendly too, w/ excellent service. If youd like a real Italian meal, instead of a frozen zapped one, (like those at the chain Italian) restaurants)) this is the place for you. Delicious Food, great ambiance, reasonable price for REAL ITALIAN FOOD. Check it out !

This place seemed nice when we walked in but after we were seated some lady(owner/manager I assume) was yelling at the bar to others bad mouthing a large group of customers and screaming at employees which quickly ruined my first impression. We ordered an appetizer that was $9 for 5 not so jumbo shrimp...of the two meals we ordered the pasta was good but the spaghetti sauce tasted like it came out of a can, and the veal was soggy...so, it wasnt a desirable experience! Maybe we just went on a bad night, idk.

Absolutely wonderful and delicious! Perfect for a romantic date night. We drank riesling and moscato that would pair perfectly with anything. The bruschetta was perfect! The bread was crisp and soft, so you didnt lose everything due to the bread breaking as you bite into it. My wife had veal piccatta, and I enjoyed a linguine pesce. The veal was very tender, and the taste was phenomenal. My shrimp was cooked perfectly, and melt in your mouth good! Everyone was very friendly! I cant wait to go back!

This place is VERY clean, service was prompt and polite. Music plays quietly in the background while you enjoy your meal. My glass was never empty and the waitress, Mary, was very friendly and professional. The veal with mushrooms was a noteworthy meal and the cheese cake was oustanding. I highly recommend this restaurant for a relaxing meal with a calm, soothing, family oriented atmosphere. I wish I could give 6 stars.

Recently enjoyed another great meal at Ferrucci. Mike and Ingrid are super nice folks that have really found their calling in the restaurant business. With such a warm staff and consistently well prepared food, its hard to go wrong here. I cant say enough good things about the Snapper Picata and the Caprese appetizer. Cheers!

Im visiting Florida for the week, Im from Illinois, and honestly this was the worst Italian restaurant experience Ive ever had. The fettuccini alfredo sauce was very watery. The noodles were hard. Good service but terrible food. Wouldnt recommend pasta from here. Paid way too much for the quality of food I received.

We just had another good dining experience at Ferruccis. My wife, another couple, and I had dinner tonight. I had the Casa salad with chicken. The other three had one of the evening specials, shrimp with linguine. We all had the ricotta cheesecake for dessert. Everything was good . . . as usual.

The owners wife was pouring drinks for herself all night. Food was mediocre... no proof but I strongly feel like the microwave is their key appliance. Olive garden... no... Applebees has better pasta dishes. Service was pretty good, but that wont save poor food quality.

They were very busy when we stopped in, but they tried as best they could to accommodate us. The service was perfectly timed. I had the carbonara...not what Im used to, more of an Alfredo sauce versus the thicker egg and cheese sauce, but it tasted very good.

Ferruccis is the place to go for authentic Italian food. The Mozzarella appetizer special and their Ricotta cheesecake is out of this world. Great service and great food!!! Olive garden and Carrabbas does not even come close!

Always friendly staff who knows my name. Fresh food and new creative specials delicious. Pizza from brick oven the best Ive eaten this side of Italy. Feels like home for a holiday or birthday meal every time I dine there.

The hours are pretty unaccommodating compared to the other establishments downtown and the price of the food is a bit too much. I recommend eating here during Friday Fests when the hours are a bit more reasonable.

Best Italian in Panama City! Thursdays are my favorite day because of the wood fired pizza. For desert try the cheesecake or the cannoli, youll love it. Skip the chain restaurants and get REAL food!

If you are in the mood for great Italian cuisine this is the place. Their mozzarella is made in house so be sure to try it. Make sure to grab a reservation just incase they tend to be quite busy.

We ate here on a symphony night, when there is only a limited menu. We were seated in a room that was empty, despite many open seats on the main dining room. Food was OK.

This is a local favorite for us. We love the food and the atmosphere and highly recommend it! Dont miss out on the pizza when they have the wood fired oven going.
