Reviews For Davide Italian Cafe

You MUST eat dinner here if you find yourself anywhere near Marco Island! Take it from a Mangione, this is one of the best I’ve been to! I had the seafood pasta special and it was exceptional! We came here about two years ago and it was equally wonderful experience. You MUST make reservations, a day or two ahead if you can. The in house opera singer who does a set on busy nights sounds like Andrea Bocelli or Luciano Pavarotti, it’s heavenly.

Words cannot express how lovely this place is. The owners are the most wonderful people and the quality of food, service and atmosphere reflect how much love they pour into this business. My wife and I came here (coincidentally) on Valentine's Day without a reservation and were immediately welcomed with open arms and accommodated despite not having a reservation for an obviously booming business on what may have been one of their busiest evenings. The owners took amazing care of us and were so kind and compassionate! My wife and I regularly frequent some of the finest Italian restaraunts the DC area has to offer and I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the food at Davide's. Every course of the meal, from the Bruschetta to our main dish, was bursting with flavor beyond anything I have experienced! Even the presentation was through the roof. The staff was equally as lovely as the ownership and the Italian gentleman who was obviously the manager/head staff member was absolutely fantastic and a wealth of knowledge with regards to our dietary preferences. I cannot say enough about this establishment. There are truly no words to describe my astonishment with the quality of every facet of their business. We are grateful to have stumbled upon this diamond and we very much look forward to returning, time and time again!

The food was great! Even though every table was full of conversation and fun, the place wasn't too loud. The manager was very extroverted and kind. But the best part of the evening was when the singer (who is there on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays) came over to my daughter in her wheelchair and strongly encouraged her to join in on Flowers by Miley Cyrus - by the end of the song the whole restaurant was singing and clapping along, including the kitchen staff. It was the high point of our trip to Marco. If there were more than five stars available for atmosphere, Davide would get them. The food is great, but even if it weren't, this place would be worth it for the fun alone. Not what I expected to find in a strip mall. We will be back here whenever we are on the island.

My favorite Italian restaurant on Marco Island! The staff is so friendly, loving, and inviting like you are family. The food is homemade and fantastic! My favorite is gnocchi, bruschetta, and their cannoli!. Nicole is the Best server around! Highly recommended checking this place out!

We don’t think there is a better restaurant in the entire world. The food is incredible, there isn’t a bottle of wine that isn’t perfect, the staff are super friendly and helpful, the entertainment is always talented, and the owners are there every night greeting all of their customers by name. It’s very much family friendly while still having aspects of being “white table cloth.” Davide and family are wonderful. - The Gordon Family.

This place was a Hidden Gem! Highly recommend making a reservation, you may have trouble getting a table without one. It’s Not Fast Food, so relax and enjoy your evening. Will definitely go back when in town.

We loved Davide’s so much we went back a second night in a row and I’m not sure I’ll venture elsewhere throughout our trip! The Chicken Cordon Bleu is to die for! The atmosphere is cozy, the live music impressive, and the staff are truly hospitable. I can’t wait to return!
