MICHELANGELO – Italian
A family-run Italian counter-and-table room on Palmbrush Trail, part of a small Gulf-coast group that has been feeding this stretch of Florida since 1980. Pizza is the spine: 16-inch artisan rounds and Sicilian squares, a Grandma's on thin square crust with plum tomatoes and basil, spice pepperoni with hot honey, and a stuffed meat pie built for a crowd. Around it sit baked clams with oreganata stuffing, arancini in Bolognese, veal parmigiana heroes and rigatoni for the kids. Portions are generous and prices stay sane. Order a slice at lunch, a whole pie at night.
