    I've eaten at the one in Dunnellon several times and they have Great Pizza & Garlic Knots.

    Update: Went to Pavarottis for a third time. Got the ziti with "homemade" meatballs. I dont recommend this particular dish. WAY too much sauce, and the "homemade" meatballs were so dense and garlicky. They were like two rocks. Skip this entree. Also, our waiter never came by to "see how our food was." Maybe he already knew!

    Much better than the chains... last few times I've ordered, the pies were under done and the toppings wew scarce ... that being said, still one of the best pies for the $$ in Ocala.

    I really wish I could say that this was great, but it wasn't. Granted, we got takeout pizza and maybe if you eat in it would be better, but I just wasn't thrilled. We got a white pizza with spinach, and the ricotta was just sort of in big clumps. The crust was thin, but very tough. We also got a pepperoni pizza and again the crust was too tough. The sauce was ok, but I don't think we'll be returning.

    So close to 5 stars! Excellent food... We started with the calamari. Our dinners were delicious... The red sauce is very yummy! We both had sausage and pasta... Cooked perfectly. Served with salad or soup, and delicious buttery garlic rolls. I loved the salad & house dressing. My hubby had the broc soup, and it was fresh and very cheesy. Nice relaxed atmosphere, mom n pop type place. My only negative remark is I wish the service was a tad faster, but worth a nice relaxing Italian dinner. Priced more than fair... We got drinks, an appetizer, 2 dinners, soup/salad, bread, and our bill was under $30!! Great quality food for a great price! What else could you want?! This is a hidden secret in Ocala... Small place located near On Top of The World. The retired people seem to love it! Family friendly too. If you want Italian, this is the place in Ocala!

    This place was pretty good. Nothing to really write home about. The dishes are pretty expensive if ordering dinner. The Stromboli's are pretty big even if you get the small which is a good thing. My waiter was not attentive, and I actually got waited on by a different sympathetic waitress. All the food appears authentic, and in all honesty it tastes pretty good. I would like to try the pizza next time, see if that goes better. Definitely a great place to bring your grandmother. Median age range in the place was like 75.

    I went into Pavarotti's on SR-200 today and ordered an antipasta to go. While waiting for it, the person making pizza's was also the person handling the money at cash register and not once did he wash his hands after handling the money. Also, he was coughing and never covered his mouth and coughed on the dough that was on the counter he was using to make the pizza. Unbelievable! I have not eaten my antipasta. sr hernando, fl

    Well I expected, what with such a namesake, that we'd be greeted with some awesome Italian opera tunes playing overhead. Not even Dean Martin... Just the top 40s from the mid 60s. We popped in just before noon. The decor is tired and needs updating, but the service was really good and the food was solid and well prepared. The lasagna was great; salads & soup were a-ok. Their coffee was good to the last drop, and I liked that they have Pellegrino mineral water. Reasonable prices. Definitely will go back and suggest, if you're waffling, that you give it a try.

    I have been going to both Pavarotti's locations for years and I have to say I am VERY disappointed!! I called to place an order for pick up today and it was answered with a very angry-sounding man barking "YES?" then "HELLO?" when I hesitated. My phone then dropped the call so I called back and the same voice at least answered "Pavarotti's" but he didn't sound happy. And this is not the first time I have gotten that answer when calling. If I answered my phone like that at work, I'd be fired. Not very hospitable and welcoming at all. I got my food home and the sauce on the baked ziti seems sweeter than before and to be honest the pizza was... generic. The pizza used to be outstanding, my absolute favorite and I am uber picky, but the past couple times it has been just meh. I drive 40 minutes across town, but today may have been my last trip. What's going on Pavarotti's??

    Everything about this place is just about perfect. I've found once you leave NY/NJ, Boston, Philly or Chicago it's sometimes hard to find authentic Italian food. Whether it's pizza, or pasta, seafood or meat, espresso or dessert; it just seems that most restaurants cannot get the collective menu right. It's basically "mangiare da cani!" Meaning, there's one recipe or item that was handed down and the rest of the food is just, eh. Pavarottis does a great job with everything. I'm not known for giving out too many Five Stars; but the pasta, the sausages, meatballs, scampi, the marinara, down to their to the cannoli, it's all great. (see photos) This NY/NJ Italian family from Toms River and Flushing knows how to do it. If you have an opportunity, try to sit near the pizza ovens. It's a treat listening to them speak Italian. I'm sure there's something on their menu that they do not excel at, but I haven't found it. And, the prices? "Maron!" Entrees are very reasonable in the $10 to $13 range for most items. Their 18" pizza will make you mouth water, and is an incredible value at $12.00. But please, try their cannoli. It's outstanding. I've been told their secret is adding a little espresso to the mascarpone cheese filling. Nice! Enjoy!

    Update to this place: Wife wanted a calzone so we give this place 1 more chance. Even worse than the last review as we waited at our table for over an hour and never got out our food. This was on a Thursday. Mgt has serious issues. Our server had tables stretched across three storefronts so she spent most of her time running everywhere, accomplishing nothing. The woman in charge came by us a dozen times looking at our table but offered nothing in a way to help or even ask how things were. They had two large empty tables yet made folks wait 20 minutes before seating them elsewhere. These tables were NOT reserved, just not filled. Besides making good food, a restaurant survives by providing excellent service which means flipping tables every 30-45 minutes. We went to the counter to pay for some garlic knots we actually got 20 minutes after arriving and the kid at the counter heard us say we were leaving because we never got our food and he said just go on, no need to pay with a look that told us he's heard this complaint a lot before. As I said in my previous review, Little Joey's is a little further south on the left by Big Lots and Sammy's is a little north in Jasmine Square - better service, better experience

    Worst service ever!!!!! Friday night called ahead for a six pm reservation and at 6:20 nobody has taken our order. I watched the hostess wipe the table with a dirty rag. Tossing food onto the floor. Never ever again!!!!

    Coming from the NYC metro area I've gotta admit that I'm very spoiled by great Italian food so when it was recommended to eat here I was cautious. Boy was I worried over nothing. The food was fantastic. We timed it just right and got the second to last table in the place before a long line formed to wait. Looks can be deceiving as it appears to be a standard pizzeria. We started with an order of fried calamari (which was nicely done and not too greasy). Our group then ordered a few various pasta dishes and the soup that came with it was very well done, as were the garlic knots. I had the Seafood Fra Diavolo which was a massive size portion with a lot of seafood in it and at a good price. I'd highly recommend it. All of the plates we got were large portions and tasty down to the last bite. You'd definitely feel like you're eating back up in the Northeast with the quality of food. The drinks are all fairly priced too. It's not a restaurant that is fine dining (as it has a more basic decor), but it's one that's got great food. Highly recommended for the area.

    My mom is Italian. My grandma is Italian. My sister is Italian. They are all awesome cooks so if I take them to an Italian restaurant it had better be passable. Heck, there is not much in this area to begin with but I was craving some Italian eats and mom mentioned this place close to the assisted living home my 94 year old grandma is at. Nice joint with very personable service. Our waiter Chris was very attentive and patient with us. Fried Calamari - delish! Not too greasy and very fresh tasting. Penne Ala Vodka - solid! Garlic Knots - just right! Chicken Marsala - really good! Clams Oreganata - breaded just right with extra chunks of clams! Mussels Marinara - loaded with large mussels, plenty of pasta, and a tasty sauce! Grandma polished off the whole plate and I did not even get a mussel to taste! The verdict? This place is a hidden gem in a part of Florida not known for anything great as far as Italian goes. Mostly fast food and chains in the Ocala area so this will definitely be a new go-to spot for next time when visiting Grandma. Very reasonable prices too with large portions. Hey, I live in NYC so this was cheap to me. Also, some others around us were getting pizzas and they looked damn good! Maybe next time.

    It's a busy place. The pizza is very good. Ordered for takeout. Had to wait a little while inside for pizza pickup, but it was delicious. Convenient to Top of the World community.

    Authentic NYC pizza. They even bring in the water from New York so the crust comes out right. One of the better New York pizzas I've ever had outside of NYC.

    I was in Ocala teaching a 3 day seminar. This restaurant was recommended by students in my class. Based on the YELP reviews I almost didn't come; I am so glad I went on the recommendation of actual humans rather than reviews of disgruntled patrons. I was greeted and seated quickly upon arrival ( approximately 6:30 pm on a Monday night). I was seated in the bar area, and Chris, the bartender quickly took my order. He made suggestions based on my taste preferences. I selected the eggplant rigatoni, but asked them to leave out the ham. The dish came with a salad and an order of garlic knots. These two items are what prevented a 5 star rating. I would have preferred kalamati olives on my salad to the canned black olives, and I would have preferred real butter to the butter substitute that was poured over my garlic knots. Other than that, the meal was superb. The eggplant was sliced thinly and lightly battered with the perfect amount of ricotta cheese and spices. The side of ziti was cooked al dente and the marinara was excellent. I'll definitely revisit Pavarotti's the next time I return to Ocala!

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
