Have been eating there or taking-out since they opened on Stirling Rd around 20 years ago, then moved to Flamingo Rd. The staff has always been pleasant and efficient -- the owner is super nice.

The sausage they use is light years above the flat, tasteless sausage we get in most Italian restaurants, and their garlic rolls -- their GARLIC ROLLS are the best of any restaurant I've ever tried -- including ones in New York. When I do a pick-up, I threaten to faint if they don't hand me one while I'm waiting, and they've never refused.

Special orders -- no problem. I love their meatballs & spaghetti -- baked with mozzarella on top. MmMMmm They have gone overboard to be accommodating the extremely few times an order has gotten a little messed-up.

The only place I've had cannolis as good as JTB'S was at Laurenzo's in Miami, and that is saying a lot. My husband really looks forward to the tiramisu; I like mine made with coffee, JTB's makes theirs with rum or something -- definitely a taste of something alcoholic.

The ONLY complaint I have is that they do not deliver, for which my thighs are grateful.
