Baffi's Restaurant - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We decided to try Baffi for a change from our usual Italian spots, and here’s my take: The marinara sauce was delicious, and the frutti di mare was a highlight. However, the garlic bread could use more garlic, especially given that it’s not complimentary. The Bolognese was fabulous, and the linguini with clams in white sauce was good. We appreciated that the Chianti was served cold. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience. They make their own pasta, except for the linguini, spaghetti, and penne, which are imported from Italy.

Excellent service 👏 very pleasant atmosphere and its owners very attentive and cordial. Excellent service 👏 very pleasant atmosphere and very attentive and friendly owners.

This place is awesome. It is a true family restaurant, with the best Italian food in Florida

The pasta dishes were very good. We got fettuccine Alfredo and baked Ziti. The tiramisu had a good flavor but it had been frozen so was icy in the middle. That was kinda disappointing. Overall it was good but maybe a bit pricier than it should be

this italian restauran is the best in south florida i can eat there 10000 times and will be awesome

The best Italian restaurant in the area

Best italian food we have tried in Boca Raton. The staff is 5 stars. The cartoccio is the bomb!

Some of the best Italian food I have had. All the pasta is home made and the ingredients are high quality.

We found this place by mistake but it’s the best Italian restaurant, it’s a small traditional family business and food is delicious no matter what you order. I definitely recommend it.

One of my favorite places!! The food is amazing and the service is wonderful.. The best Italian food in US!!

Great food and service! Pizza was delicious, the ravioli was even better. Pavlova was fantastic.

My husband and I experienced Baffi’s this past Saturday and we love this mom-pop family-owned atmosphere… and you can tell they are passionate and take pride in the food they create.

Excellent service, delicious food, great atmosphere, prices not expensive, plenty of food

What a wonderful experience this was! I am a big complainer, but there was not one thing to complain about. Homemade lasagna was probably the best I’ve ever had. Fresh rolls, crispy salad, yummy ravioli and tiramisu that was beyond delicious. All family run and sooo friendly. We will make the half hour trek again to feast on these goodies.

Absolutely love this place so much. Food is super delicious and tastes like it was genuinely made with love. Service is amazing and everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Best Italian/Venezuelan food and pastries I've ever had in my life, will never stop eating here.

The best Italo Venezuelan food in Boca Raton, served by its owners who are really super friendly and make you feel at home. The Cartoccio de lomito is a delight, the millefeuille a dream and the golfeado with cheese from beyond. Ms. Jaqueline and Mr. Camilo are true hosts. 100% RECOMMENDED!

Finally a real Italian taste restaurant…always fresh and the specials are truly the Italian trends…simply awesome…100% recommend

The best restaurant, the best food and the best service, are my favorites 🫶🏼

This is absolutely the most amazing restaurant on the planet! The owners have become like family. Our granddaughter talks about them and asks to go see them and have their famous dessert Pavlova. She dreams of it. They make you feel like family each and every time you walk in the door. And the food…oh my goodness. We love every single dish we get. By far, our favorite restaurant in Boca!

Having explored every "Italian restaurant" in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, I must say Baffi's stands out as the absolute best. The staff's exceptional service complements the indescribable deliciousness of their food. An outstanding dining experience!

Excellent food, authentic Italian, friendly service and impeccable place! 100% recommended

Excellent food, exceptional service, Totally recommended. The best pastiche you could try.

Delicious 😋 and great family service! Lasagna was amazing!

Excellent quiet atmosphere with piano music playing in the background. The foot was phenomenal. Excellent italian food. We ordered the shrimp and calamari fritti, the cheese sicilian pizza, and fedicini alfredo pasta. It was perfect! I’d highly recommend going. Our waiters were very friendly and polite too.

Absolutely hands down delicious! Great family. Will be back again! Update: went back again and as delicious as the first time. Tried a new dessert that was absolutely scrumptious. Favorite Italian food since moving to Florida.

Excellent, we arrived thanks to previous reviews

2 for 2. These guys are great. Awesome place, great service, amazing food and desert.

My wife discovered this place on Instagram. It was our first time here, and we had the most amazing Venezuelan empanadas. They were perfectly cooked and not greasy at all. The empanadas are not on the physical menu, but they are on the secret menu. The owners, Jacqueline and Camilo were incredibly friendly, and they gave us two samples of menu items that we didn’t even order. The atmosphere was nice with pleasant Christmas music playing in the background. Everything tasted amazing and was super fresh. We will definitely be coming back here for sure. A true hidden gem in west Boca!

Our family ate here tonight for the first time. My two young daughters wanted to say we love your restaurant. Your food and service is great. We love the pizza and dulce de leche cake.

The best experience during my holidays in Miami, great service, the food is so good, I felt I was in Italy, enchanting place. Thank you so much. The best one in town.

Best Italian food in south Florida. Fettuccini Sofia Loren is to die for.

Baffi’ Restaurant is the BEST Italian we have had in years! My husband had an amazing hand tossed pizza with their homemade meatballs and I had the juiciest Chicken Francaise with delicious lemon wine sauce, capers, and savory sautéed vegetables. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. It’s family owned and operated with love and it shows! We will definitely be back!

Recomendado 100% si quieres comer todo preparado al momento y la pasta realmente fresca. Muy familiar

espectacular, lo recomiendo 100%, todo hecho por los dueños!!!

La comida espectacular y por supuesto la atención de primera. Gracias 🤩 y volveremos a vernos

The best Italian restaurant in South Florida!! Don’t miss it!!

Been here twice now and have only tried pasta dishes but they’ve both been awesome. I feel like pasta dishes always are too big but here I ate the whole thing both times. Caccio e pepe and amatriciana, really good.

I visit every couple of months and the food and service is consistently excellent! Neighborhood Italian restaurant. Family owned and operated. Excellent food and a menu with enough options to satisfy everyone. I'll be a regular visitor

Excelente atención y la comida hecha con esa característica típica de una trattoria italiana...los recomiendo

Amazing food, my wife had the lobster ravioli in a pink sauce that was amazing. I had the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and it was excellent. My kids had spaghetti marinara and they licked the plate clean. We will definitely go back to this place.

While the ambiance was cozy and inviting, the food fell short of expectations. The pizza I ordered turned out to be too salty, and it didn’t have the authentic Napoletana appearance or taste that I was hoping for. The flavors seemed unbalanced, which affected my enjoyment of the dish. As for the calamari fritti, I was surprised to find them resembling onion rings more than the crispy fresh calamari I’m used to. I’m sure they are precooked (publix). This unexpected twist was a letdown, as I was eagerly anticipating the classic dish. Moreover, the chicken parmigiana lacked the delightful flavors I associate with this traditional Italian favorite. I understand We are far from Italy and your customers are mostly US but come on chef you can do much better.. While the restaurant’s atmosphere was pleasant and the service was adequate, the culinary execution was a bit disappointing. I believe that with some adjustments and attention to detail, they have the potential to elevate their offerings and deliver a more authentic and enjoyable Italian dining experience. Overall, I left quickly the restaurant with mixed feelings. I hope this review helps both the restaurant management and potential diners in making informed decisions. Buon appetito! 🇮🇹🍽️

Best Italian food! Getting food takes some time but it definitely worth it! Our favorite restaurant

Intimate restaurant filled with lovely people. The food is ALWAYS delicious. A beautiful family owned business. I highly recommend!

Demasiada salsa en la lasaña. The lasaña coming with Too much sauce .

The best restauntt in South Florida, Italian and Venezuelan fusion of delicious traditional food not to mention excellent service, they will go above and beyond to please you!

Highly recommend this restaurant specially their pavlova is AMAZING! Thank you

Great food and very attentive staff. Definitely recommend

I found this place because my mom wanted some Italian food, I was looking for a 5 star start or 4.5 and I found this, I was looking for a family restaurant and I am glad I found this, nice place, nice people, attentive, have a decent menu, not to much, no to little, affordable prices, and really tasty. I will come back for sure, a little far but I will come back to try their pizza and maybe another pasta. Give it a shot and give them those 5 starts. Fruit di mare that was my dish, and some garlic bread with Parmesan cheese.

Amazing place, could be hard to find initially. The food is authentic Italian food with amazing portions and jaw dropping flavors. Run by family the staff has superior service and are as friendly as they can be. Easy one of the best places to eat around town. Highly recommend 🥘

The food here was incredible. I had ordered the gnocchi with meat sauce and the tomato sauce was perfectly done, the gnocchi tasted fresh and soft. You can tell the love and care that goes into the food. It was worth every penny.

The food is excellent, true italian flavor, pasta is made there by owner, we have been there twice and will continue to go ♥️

We arrived 2 mos ago from New York Decided to try Baffi”s pizza.We ordered their Margarita pie. Upon arriving in restaurant and picking up pie box it was COLD!!!!I figured at Home to heat up and enjoy..However we ordered extra sauce less cheese received the complete opposite and upon heating crust was not even edible…We believe there food is not made to order, and it turns out it looks like a Regular Pie not a Marguerite style. You just heard from my boyfriend. I’m from New York and I’m Italian. We ordered a margarita pie with extra sauce and not much mozzarella. When he returned with the pie, it looked like a regular pizza with extra mozzarella with a couple of pieces of tomato with more mozzarella on top of each slice of tomato. I heated up the pizza for a couple of minutes because when he came with the pie, it was cold. We only live 10 minutes away. After heating it the crust was so hard it was inedible. I called and asked for the manager. She kept repeating and reading from the menu. I asked her if this was an Italian restaurant and she replied that she was from Napoli. Pizza from Naples does not taste like this. This pie was pre-made. All they did was add a couple of pieces of tomato with a piece of mozzarella of each. What a disappointment. They should be ashamed to call themselves an Italian restaurant. Also you need to know that my boyfriend found hair in two different slices of his pizza. I’m so embarrassed to believe that people would pose as Italians. They are a disgrace.

Que delicia de comida!!!! Si pudiera darle otras 5 estrellas lo haría!!! La atención es excelente, la comida espectacular y los postres increíbles y frescos. 10000% recomendado.

Probably the best homemade meat ravioli I’ve ever had. Please let your son take his girlfriend to Renaissance festival. He earned it.

We love this restaurant the food is amazing, the sea food pizza is so delicious, the staff is so friendly i real recommend this place.

Delicious food, delicious pizza and excellent service. Small family owned and run business that makes you feel at home.

Delicious food, the gnocchi with gorgonzola sauce is incredible and great service, 10/10 would recommend and come back for sure!

Small & cozy Family owned restaurant, the Food is Amazing!!! ♥️♥️♥️ love it!!!! Recommend 💯 % The pastas and the lasagna are to die for uffff!!!! The owner she was very nice 😊 and helpful, come to this place and Enjoy 😉 👍

If you are in a hurry this is not your place If you dont make a reservation, neither your place. Always packed. Small place. Nice not fancy. Familiar owned and operated. Authentic italian food. The food is way too good. Not box food as macaroni grill. Making good / fresh food for you is not fast. The deserts are out of the world. I am not affiliated to this place in any way. Monday closed. Pizzas are ALSO wonderful. There is NOT a bad selection in this place. Recommended. If you like the place click ok to my review

Muy buena comida y buen servicio ✅🌟💯

Baffi's meets all of the criteria for an outstanding Italian restaurant. The menu is large, with all of the favorite Southern Italian specialties. Welcome is enthusiastic from host owner Jacqueline. Her husband Camillo is the chef and co-owner. So basically, diners join Jacqueline and Camillo for meals in their "home" in a small storefront restaurant in a strip mall just South of 18th Street in Boca Raton on State Road 7, Route 441. At our recent visit, my wife and I shared a half bottle of excellent Portuguese red wine that Jacqueline recommended. We split as a starter a generous order of excellent meatballs in red sauce. My wife selected as her main a superb order of lobster ravioli with shrimp and calamari. I loved my lasagna, which was perfectly layered pasta with meat sauce and cheese. For me, lasagna is the ultimate test of a local Italian restaurant. Usually lasagna is cooked in such a way that the distinctive pasta and meat sauce layers become a mishmash. I am almost always disappointed in the lasagna I order in local Italian restaurants. However, Camillo's lasagna was perfect. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the meat sauce and cheese all worked together superbly. I cannot remember ever enjoying an order of lasagna more than at Baffi's. Service is perfectly attentive and the check is modest for a superb Italian meal. We look forward to coming back often.

I just visited to try the Pasticho (Venezuelan lasagna) and it was delicious. Italian food venezuelan stile. 100% Recommended.

Excelente comida la atención incomparable...altamente recomendado

This place is amazing, me and my wife always come back specially on Friday. Last night I had a pizza “Rústica”, the best one I have tried so far. This is a family owned business, they cook, they serve and they show love in everything they do. 👊🏼❤️

This place is amazing, the attention is superb, the food it's delicious, thank you to the staff for treating us like family

Excellent Italian food! Also a great variety of Italo-Venezuelan food… and another 100% Venezuelan! … gracias Chicos! Divina toda su comida!

Service was good the food was average.

Clean, fast, and most importantly, DELICIOUS!

Excelente lugar para compartir en familia. Me encantó su comida, sin duda tienen ese sabor que la hace inigualable, se los recomiendo. La atención es super genial. No duden en visitarlos. Ah y los postres super recomendados

Amazing place, delicious authentic Italian food, no other place have the service that Baffi's have, totally recommended, the best Italian food that I tried here in South Florida

The are Amazing, the food is so delicious and their service is outstanding. Exceeded my expectations. If you have kids, they will love the pizza. BTW You have to try the Milhojas (desert), is out of this world 🌎. Son una maravilla, la comida es espectacular y el servicio es excelente!!! Excedió mis espectativas. Si tienes niños, les va a encantar la pizza. Tienes que probar la Milhojas, es del más allá.

Tonight was amazing thanks to Yaqueline and her son, at Baffi's Restaurant. We found the authentic Italian taste we were looking for. Family owned, from the moment we entered to the minute we said goodbye, delayed multiple times due to the enjoyable conversation, we felt like family. Food was spectacular, delicious desert. All made to the order. My kids loved the Veal Parmigiana. The Meat lasagna and the Italian carbonara were exquisite. And Italian music to make you dream, about it. We totally recommend this place, and of course we will come back! Thank you so much!

I had an amazing dining experience with my parents at Baffi’s. Authentic Italian food made with love and care. The restaurant is owned and operated by Jacqueline and Camilo. They are lovely and make you feel like you are at their home. The restaurant is very clean and the service is great. The food was so delicious! One of the best places to eat Italian food in South Florida. Chicken Parm was 10/10. Pizza 10/10. Zuppa di Pesce 10/10. All the dishes are freshly made and you can definitely taste it. Would definitely recommend anyone to come and discover this hidden gem in Boca Raton.

El ambiente familiar espectacular, la atención por sus propios dueños sin comparación. La mejor comida italiana, toda la comida es hecha desde cero por ellos mismos. Ni hablar de los postres, son frescos y DELICIOSOS. Sin duda alguna mi restaurant favorito en Boca Raton

Just left cause we came in and sat down. Waited 10 to 15 minutes and no one came to the table. When leaving they said it will take a while if we order so we left.

La atención es insuperable, excelente ambiente, la dueña te trata como si fueras de su familia, el ambiente es muy cálido y familiar, pero la cómoda es supremamente deliciosa, y te hacen hasta tu comida favorita si no está en su menú, y los postres, Dios ya puedo morir porque me comí el golfeado y el mil hojas (napoleón) más delicioso del mundo, se los recomiendo, vengan a vivir la mejor de las experiencias culinarias y se sentirán como en casa. The attention is second to none, excellent atmosphere, the owner treats you as if you were family, the atmosphere is very warm and familiar, but the dresser is supremely delicious, and they even make your favorite food if it is not on their menu, and the desserts, God I can die now because I ate the most delicious golfeado and the thousand leaves (napoleon) in the world, I recommend them, come and live the best of culinary experiences and you will feel at home.

Excellent place, first of many visits to come. The food and service were outstanding .

Amazing place and vibe. We can see that everything is done with love. I really love all the desserts.. the whole menu is great and light.. a place to hang out and even enjoy the music! Part of my family is from Italy, I also travel there and I can say that when we are in this restaurant it has the feeling of being in Italy too. A family restaurant that won our hearts. I really recommend it!

Excelente restaurant altamente recomendado sabor Venezolano y su mejor secreto ....excelente atención .....

I think this is the best Italian restaurant I’ve ever been to. The food is delicious, really fresh and not heavy at all. I’ve tried the Lasagna and the Contadina pizza and both times I have been very impressed. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re in the mood for Italian food. Also, the owners, the waiter and the cook are extremely nice people.

El ambiente es super agradable y la Atención es personalizada , los dueños un amor hasta el punto que te sientes en casa. El sabor de la comida deliciosaaaaa como la comida de mi Nonna❤️❤️❤️. Lo recomiendo 1000000%%%%

Nice people, charming place, delicious food. We had a great family time with our daughters.

True hidden gem! The food was DELICIOUS! So fresh and so authentic! Quite possibly the best white pizza I’ve ever had and the Veal Piccata was mouth watering. Also the family is so nice and friendly they made us feel like a part of their family. Cannot wait to go back!!

Excellent restaurant , you feel like home , the quality of the food is superb, the amount adequate, presentation is impeccable and more importantly the taste of the dishes are just unbelievable . Owners are amazing. I fully recommend this restaurant without reservation!!! I do not understand how some customers give a bad review because the Restaurant was closed when is clearly stated in their website and the Restuarant itself that the restaurant is closed on Monday . On the other hand in my personal experience , when they close the restaurant due to vacations , holidays or special circumstances the owners inform the community ahead of time to avoid any inconveniences . Therefore I disagree with the review posted below.

My family and I have been eating here for approximately 2 years. We absolutely love it: the fresh, homemade pastas and sauces, the hand-tossed perfect crust pizza, the personal touch service, and the relaxed, laid-back and spotless envirnment. This IS a family owned and operated business. They do it all themselves, which is HOW they are able to maintain such high standards. This tells me that they also have a passion for what they do, pouring their love into each and every dish. If they are closed, it's because they, like everyone else in the world, may have had an emergency. They could have someone else run the restaurant for them while they're out, but I'm guessing they don't want to risk having anything be subpar. That speaks to their dedication. I've never had an issue with them being closed. I suppose I could call before I drive there, but, like I said, it hasn't been an issue. Try them. You won't regret it.

I have eaten at this restaurant on the recommendation of a golf buddy, coincidentally was able to eat there with no issues and the prepared meals were good no complaints, we were satisfied. Pricing was a little stiff however. Now here is the issue, I could never figure out when they are open or closed. Tried to eat there with guests or by myself at least 5 times when after arriving found them closed without any explanation nor an a clue as to their interactions. Calculated that they are closed 40% of the time of normal restaurant business hours. This restaurant could be a hubby or someone’s cruel joke at the expense of diners. I do not feel this is acceptable no matter how good the chef is. Some of the best restaurants around the world have a limited opening time, posted prominently and adhered to. My advice to diners stay away from this place, until they manage the place responsibly and seriously, or you are family and know what they will do next. It seems the chef gets up in the morning and decides to go cook, or shop to cook. Many items on the menue are not available when you ask for it. I concluded they have no game plan, nor do they know what they are doing. A restaurant is a service business and belongs in the hospitality industry. Many other quality reliable restaurants are available around. Don’t bother.

I love little gems like this. The father and mother are the chefs, their wonderful son works upfront. Everything is fresh, you can literally hear them grinding the pesto in the back. First Italian I've ever had where I don't feel overloaded with starch and carbs .The pasta is divine, the pasts carbornara is as good as the other reviews said, their garlic bread and gnocchi is like eating clouds. Please do yourself a favor and go.

This restaurant was an amazing find! Freshly made breads, pastas, pizza, and dessert are quality made! From salad to dessert, we couldn't stop remarking how delicious everything tasted! We even ordered more bread to mop up the leftover pasta sauce. This is truly a family restaurant, with mom, dad, and the kids working together. Such an unexpected, fortunate place to eat!

I wish I could give this place 10 stars. It was the absolute best Italian food I have ever had. Every single thing that hit the table was 12/10. The staff is very nice and attentive. If you don’t try this restaurant you are missing out. I will without a doubt be coming back here every time I’m craving Italian food.

Best food ever!!! Wonderful place, excellent service, this is best place to go and eat Italian food.100% recommended. Family owned and operated. They are Amazing!!!! “ Dove c'è Baffi’s c'è casa” Il miglior ristorante di Boca Raton. Grazie mille per tutto ragazzi!!!

excelente atendimento... comida maravilhosa... eu recomendo😉 excellent service... wonderful food... I recommend it😉

EXCELLENT FOOD..GREAT AMBIANCE..and extra kind service of the Bennedetto Family..All of them work together to make this place a great culinary experience..The best pizzas...and the best homemade pasta with all the Italian tradition..

Visited this place a few nights ago ordered the shrimp and calamari fritta and the chicken Parmesan not only is the shrimp and calamari a boxed version you can get at the grocery store ( I prefer fresh when I go out ) it tasted spoiled after one taste my wife and I looked at each other and knew something was not right the marinara sauce it came with for dipping I asked for it to be extra spicy it literally taste like hot katchup we asked if the chicken parm came with the same sauce they said yes and was nice enough to cancel the order .. based on the appetizer and the sauce it was a totally miss Me my order was so simple how can you get bad fried food 😕

Hoy mi paladar tuvo un deleite memorable de esos sabores que nunca se olvidan a pesar del tiempo comerme un pasticho en Baffis fue revivir es sabor del auténtico pasticho italo-venezolano en estas lejanas tierras y ni hablar del pan su olor me hizo llorar recordando los momentos vividos en la panadería de mi papi recordar es vivir, la atención de Jackeline, su esposo y personal es A1

Excellent service , delicious ! I will come back!!!!!! Just remind me Ratatouille!! 😌😌😌

Pizza wonderful, everyone is polite and with perfect service.thank you!!!!!!

I love this place. I’ve gotten the Alfredo with Linguine, Pesto with Linguine, Tricolore, and more. Everything I have tried has been phenomenal and is fairly priced. It can be hard to find that in south Florida.

This place is the hidden gem of real Italian food in Boca Raton. This kind of restaurant is really hard to find nowadays, a family owned and operated business. Owners, Camilo and Jacqueline are both involved in the kitchen; their Italian and Portuguese roots are deeply imprinted in their cuisine. Fantastic pizzas. Homemade deserts, a great selection of wines. Don’t miss this place.

Excellent spaghetti and meatballs! Gnocchi was great as were the garlic rolls. Family owned. Waiter was great. We will come back for the pizza.

Top to bottom this place was awesome. Great food, great experience and great people. 10/10!
