Limoncello South

We came for dinner. Had linguine limoncello.Sautéed shrimp and garlic in a white wine and lemon reduction.Pear Gorganzola RavioliCrumbled Gorgonzola stuffed ravioli with bruleed pear and walnuts in a yummy cream sauce. A lemon.cake for dessert and a pistachio cake. BOTH ARE TO DIE FOR!

Such an unassuming restaurant in a small plaza. We gave it a try and so happy we did. Started with the lemoncello martini. So good. Zucchini blossoms and sea bass. Cooked to perfection. JT our waiter was patient and knowledgeable. The place is warm and friendly. We finished with the lemoncello cake,incredible!!!.

Great ambience! Service was great! We came here for Scott's birthday and it did not disappoint! The food was PHENOMENAL! All around - I highly recommend for NSB locals and all visitors! Don't miss out on a great dining experience casual or special.

Limoncello South is a favorite Italian restaurant! We like to sit at the bar if it's just the two of us. They usually have live music in the evenings. They serve excellent cocktails and also have good wine list! Their pastas are delicious and don't forget dessert. Our favorite go to dishes are the Cavatelli al Cognac and the Linguine Carbonara. Don't forget the taramisu and a cannoli to top it all off.

We love Italian so we were all looking forward to a delicious dinner. We were seated promptly (we had a reservation) and they were gracious enough to accommodate our large party. The service was very good, our very tall, young server (cannot recall his name) did a fine job and the kitchen got our food out pretty quickly. The appetizers were so good (zucchini flower was tempura style-heavy; meatballs -light; calamari-crispy & tender; eggplant rollitini-tasty). The dinner dishes were hot and miss. My veal picatta was just right and my husband's lobster ravioli was delicious. Others in the party said some dishes were heavy (pasta carbonara) overly cheesy, the pancetta a little tough. The prices are right too!!

This was our first visit here and it's located in a local shopping center so access and parking was quite easy! We were warmly greeted and sat at the bar for some wine and ligth dinner! We tried their various appetizers such as meatballs, burrata and muscles! All 3 dishes were very flavorful and tasted great! The sauce from the muscles was delicious and paired well with their tasty bread! Overall, it was a great find and great service to enjoy a fun post beach day!

My family and I are Italian, so naturally we have to try all the Italian restaurants in town! I heard this place has a cheese wheel, so my curiosity began to grown. We came here on a Thursday evening with a reservation and were greeted by an angry young woman who told us there would be a wait. We waited patiently for 5-10 minutes as she stared into the abyss that was her podium. Whether she was on a phone or tablet, no one will know. Eventually we made our way inside to our cramped table. Much precaution had to be taken to not hit the seats behind you or have a waiter run into you as they went by. Removal of a few tables would greatly benefit the flow of traffic inside. An older gentleman was our waiter who told us all about the specials and drink options. We decided on calamari which came out hot and crispy. For dinner, we ordered the lasagna, piccata and marsala. The food came out hot and had good flavor. However, I don't think the price fairly reflects the portion served given the numerous top-notch Italian restaurants in the area. Maybe it was just the evening we came but I wouldn't recommend this restaurant off of first impressions. The Garlic, Baci and Tianos will remain my go-tos for now.

When it comes to being in the New Smyrna Beach area, we have our favorite spots.Move over The Garlic, becuass this is now #1 on our list!!The ambiance, the service, the food. 5/5Bread served with Roasted red pepper sun dried pesto, never had it but it was phenomenal! The bread also, as my wife put it, tasted like it was airfryed, as a compliment thought, but for me it tasted great no matter what way it was made! We were wowed by the fact that Friday and Saturday nights they have a live musician performing outside, (he even takes requests!), there doors are open so even inside you can hear it! There is about 8 or 10 tables outside if you decide to sit outside! We sat outside since we have the baby in his stroller and we know how cramped it can get inside and difficult to walk by as a server with the stroller there! We were promptly greeted by Jay T, our server, who instantly set the tone for Limoncello's amazing atmosphere and ambiance! My wife got a martini, (it's a martini bar so we gotta try one right?!) and I myself got a Peroni. [We saw two people who were greeting almost everyone walking in and you felt like it was like the interaction you have when your with family but I honestly believe it was the owner and his wife! ]We got the Bruschetta for an appetizer. Didn't take long before it was before us! Great flavor!My wife ordered the Cappellini Pomodoro. It looked sooooo good! My wife doesn't like too oily or too creamy and it was just right! Amazing flavor, even if it didn't have any protein on it it was still amazing!I ordered the Carbonara.I'm a stickler for my Carbonara! But THIS WAS THE BEST CARBONARA IVE HAD IN MY LIFE!! I have to all caps that because that's how good it was! Didn't look like a lot of food but it was a great portion! I asked the (who I believed to be the owner) what he recommended for a post meal beverage and he recommended me the Fernat-Branca, which is an Italian dark liqueur. It has a dark bitter black licorice flavor to it, although it was different I still enjoyed it. Overall, as Jay T said, Limoncello is the best Italian restaurant in New Smyrna Beach area and I can't wait to come back again and try it! Would recommend to anyone I know!

Food is good and staff is accommodating. A little more attention to detail would be a plus. Overall, I would go back.

Local Italian restaurant that has a variety of dishes for the entire family to try.Nathan provided great service, went over the daily specials with us & doesn't try to upsell.For a Monday afternoon, the bar had a few locals and the dining room had a few tables. The restaurant was clean and other staff was friendly and accommodating.
