About the restaurant
A slice of Italy in the Florida Keys! This approachable and genuine pizzeria/trattoria serves authentic Italian dishes in a warm and memorable atmosphere. Locals, families, couples, and groups flock to Italian Food Company for the food, service and attention to detail. Guests dine on imported, hand painted lava tables made by local artisans from the foothills of Mt. Etna, while overlooking our wine and beer garden. Hand painted murals depicting scenes from Sicily and the bay of Naples set the tone. Insta perfect picture spots come alive with a vintage Fiat 500 and the Italian Food Company Vino Van. If you have a love for all things Italy, you will come to adore this home away from home. Pizza Lovers beware - the Pizza is authentic Neapolitan, the real deal without the passport.

About the restaurant
Mangia in Islamorada! Co-owners Tony and Isis Wright have transformed the beloved and iconic building, previously home to Bentleys, into a slice of Italy in the Florida Keys. This approachable and genuine trattoria serves 5 star authentic Italian dishes in a warm and memorable atmosphere. Locals, families, couples, and groups flock to Italian Food Company for the food, service and attention to detail. Guests dine on imported, hand painted lava tables made by local artisans from the foothills of Mt. Etna, while overlooking various murals depicting scenes from Venice, Sicily and the Amalfi Coast. If you have a love for all things Italy, you will come to adore this home away from home - and it comes with the fun, fanfare, chefs and servers - imported from Italy with love.

We were a party of 6 adults and 1 toddler. Great job bringing out food quickly for the little one. Carpaccio, Caprese and Arancini appetizers were terrific! Those who had pizza were extremely pleased.

About the restaurant
Long before there was a boardwalk, friends Alonzo Cothron & Berlin Felton’s original establishment was a fish house. Boats would pull up right outside and throw the fish straight in!
We’ve changed a little since then, but the most important thing remains the same - guests can still kick back and experience the freshest, locally caught seafood in one hand, a cold beverage in the other, soak in the view, and watch the world go by.
