Food was delicious!!! The gluten free cauliflower crust was a great option for me. My husband had the chicken parm which he said was amazing. The fresh garlic bread also he said was probably the best he’s had.
We arrived right at 5 pm so we placed our order at the counter and paid; then sat down. Seating and atmosphere could be improved but overall we had a lovely meal which was delicious and well priced!

To those reviewers who complained about the service fee, please consider staying home if you can't afford to dine out.
This place is a gem to me—fresh and delicious pasta, much better than chain restaurants. Whether it's authentic Italian or not, I won't know until I visit Italy. Regardless, it tasted quite Italian to me, and that's what matters. It's well worth it! The portions were generous, so much so that we had no room left for dessert. Definitely coming back next time!
For appetizers, we enjoyed mozzarella sticks and meatballs. They looked so good that I forgot to take pictures, and they tasted even better! The marinara sauce was different from what I've had before, but in a good way.
For entrees, my wife had the gnocchi a la vodka (an excellent recommendation from our server), my son had the calzone, and I had the fettuccine bolognese. Everything was delicious!
I'll be returning next week for sure!
The food here is really good. Authentic Italian. Too bad it’s in this little space in a strip mall. Prices are what you’d expect in a much nicer place, but reflective of the food quality. Most everything is made from scratch so don’t be in a hurry. BE WARNED: they added an 18% service charge to the bill (and there were only 2 of us). I would have tipped 20%, but that irritated me. I guess, they get a lot of folks who don’t tip. Recommend.
Amazing food and service! Came in with a group of 7 around 8pm. No wait for a table. Hands down the best chicken marsala I have ever tasted. This will be on my list of restaurants to go to everytime I am in Orlando.
Food was amazing. The pizza, cheese bread, meatballs, all of it! Was phenomenal. We ate inside in the “smaller” dining room and had a great experience. Would 100% recommend.
My wife and I absolutely love coming here. We love the pizza here and I would eat it over pizza from Italy any day.
The staff are very friendly and care about the experience you have.
The dining area reminds of the picturesque eateries in rome that you can find down a side street.
Worth every penny spent.
Excellent restaurant! Server was fantastic. My Fiancé and I had been here once before when we visited a few years ago and it was amazing. We just went again twice this trip and loved it. It’s affordable and the food was amazing with really nice portions. I would highly recommend eating here.
We were planning to eat at the nearby Ethiopian restaurant, but it was closed. As we walked towards the Japanese restaurant at the other end of the strip mall, we decided to try Famas instead. It did not disappoint.
Famas is a small, family owned restaurant. What appears to be an old black and white photo of the owner when much younger is adjacent to a movie poster from The Godfather.
My wife had pasta penne. I had gnocchi in pesto sauce with the penne vegetables added. We split a Greek salad at the recommendation of our server. He also recommended the spumone bomb for dessert, though I’m sure all the desserts are excellent.
Note: even for only 2 of us, an 18% tip was added.
As soon as we walked into the place we got such a heavy saturation of original Italian style fare and smells that matched, it was like we walked directly into Little Italy. We were greeted by a wonderful man by the name of George who gave us impeccable service the likes of which is rare to find nowadays. I ordered the baked ziti while my girl and I shared a vegetarian pizza pie, we then had tiramisu as well and I can tell you from being a cook previously at a made-from-scratch local Italian place this place is legit and would definitely recommend to everyone I know whenever they are in this area.
All delicious and the best of the best was the attention of Juan Carlos, his recommendation with the antipasto and the wine made the moment become exquisite and pleasant. The homemade Tiramisu is spectacular! Thank you very much Juan Carlos and all the good Fama team!
