FARO – Italian
FARO Beachside Eatery has served Roman-style pizza and Italian small plates a few steps from the boardwalk on A1A in Flagler Beach since 2019. Everything starts from scratch, including the dough, made with unbleached flour and real milk cheese: pizza al taglio sold by the slice, panini built on house focaccia, charcuterie boards and a proper lasagna. Weekday aperitivo hour runs 3 to 5 p.m. with discounted plates and drinks. The name means lighthouse in Italian, chosen deliberately for a spot meant to feel like home to sandy-footed travelers off the beach, with friendly, unhurried service the whole afternoon through.
