Discover a little piece of Italy in Branson, Missouri – Florentina’s Ristorante Italiano. The family friendly environment with unique and yummy dishes will satisfy all your cravings. Read on for my full review.
Florentina’s Ristorante Italiano – Family Dining in Branson, MO
Disclosure: I was the guest of Myrah at Couponmamacita on the #BloggingBranson trip. All opinions are my own.
Close your eyes and imagine sitting around a big table with your whole family. The boisterous laughter and family togetherness – these are Florentina’s.
Local Favorite
Eat where the locals eat – this is how you find the best a town has to offer. When we sat down soon plates of the Nachos Italiano (yes, Italian style nachos) were placed around the tables. The concept of Italian nachos was new. But let me tell you they were fantastic. Topped with chicken, alfredo sauce, a drizzle of balsamic reduction and so much more they didn’t last long with our group.
What to Eat for Dinner?
When it comes to restaurant pasta my go to is spaghetti with marinara sauce, because it’s safe. I’ve found that most dishes lack any real flavor, but that wasn’t the case at Florentina’s Ristorante Italiano. I took a chance and tried the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. It was delicious and so full of flavor!
Cocktails and Dessert
I’m not a huge drinker, but I do enjoy a cocktail every now and than. When I saw the Blueberry Breeze with blueberry lemon rum I knew I had to have it. It was sweet and tangy and just what I needed after the busy day we had.
Our family doesn’t normally do dessert when eating out, so it’s a fun treat when we do. As full as I was after the nachos and pasta, I forced myself to eat a few bites of the triple chocolate cake. And I’m glad that I did. Just like everything else we ate at Florentina’s it was very good.
My kids aren’t huge pasta eaters, weird I know, but Florentina’s also serves their all time favorite meal – Pizza. So, if you have finicky children rest assure that Florentina’s Ristorante Italiano has something that will please the whole family.
