    Monday - all you can eat spaghetti for $9.99 (add $2 for meatballs). They also have eat bird specials for $12.95 (soup/salad, entree and dessert. Loved the spaghetti with meatball! You could really tell it was cooked fresh, the tomato sauce was great, pasta al dente!

    We all left the restaurant and agree that it is just below OK. Strange first line, I know, but the pizza while good, barely had any toppings on it, more like a cheese pizza instead of the three items we wanted. Pizza came out way before my chicken parm sandwich, they were done eating, think the young waitress f upped and didn't put order in, guess what happens when you try and remember instead of writing down.It was all bread and no chicken, terrible..Change of ownership and hope they make it but I think there are way too many competitors out there. wont be back, sorry.

    Perhaps it was the fact that I ordered via Grub Hub, but the food was pathetic. Three items, a pizza, portabella chicken, and a antipasto salad came to $60+ with delivery... DO NOT ORDER THE ANTIPASTO SALAD! They put cold cuts and cheese on lettuce... It's the elementary cafeteria food version of antipasto... have some respect for yourselves Mona Lisa; no Italian would serve that and call it antipasto anything. The pizza... pizza has sauce, this had no sauce. It was cheese and old sun dried tomatoes on disgusting hard crust... The saving grace was the port-chic w artichokes... salty but compared to the other items we were delivered it was the only edible part of the meal. Seriously, if I can keep even one person from experiencing the sheer hell that is your food then I shall dance with angles one day, for your food tastes like bad dreams and anger, and if Satan had a flavor, it would be the thematic flavor of your food. Mona Lisa smile? Mona Lisa cry...

    Not quite sure how I feel about this place. We waited at the door for quite some time to be seated. The table that came in after Us must have had the same problem because they say themselves then sat there for a little while and asked if we sat ourselves, then had to get up and search for someone. Our waitress seemed bored and sleepy. We had Caesar salads which were okay, the dressing was super garlicky it gave me a really bad stomach ache after. Then we had a buffalo chicken pizza which was pretty greasy and VERY spicy, I couldn't eat much because my mouth was burning. The food came out rather quickly so that was nice, we also had time in between the salad and the pizza which I enjoyed. There are plenty of other places I would visit around the area before I came back here.

    As per many recommendations, I used Mona Lisa to order pizza for my daughter's birthday party. They & their food were great. The manager threw in an extra pizza and garlic bread due to the size of my order. I thought that was very nice of him. The pizzas were all delicious and they arrived right on time.

    Love this place! It has great alcohol prices and the bar food is amazing. Happy hour you can get $1 slices and half price wings. The wings are great, best I've had in town and I have had a lot of wings around here! Happy hour also gets you 2-4-1 on wines, wells and calls.

    My husband and I have often thought about trying the Mona Lisa since we moved here nearly 2 years ago since it's located relatively close to our home but we always seemed to have a different place to try. Last Friday, we finally checked it out and were pleasantly surprised. Don't let the "strip mall" location deter you. Once inside, the warm wood bar area and overall decor inside, gives you a true dining experience. Mona Lisa's doubles as a sports bar with multiple big screens and nightly karaoke bar, so it's not an upscale dining experience, but neither are the prices. We are huge fans of steamed mussels and the Mussels al vino blanco were fanatastic. A one lb serving is $10.95 but add another lb for just $4 more. That's what we did. The mussels were deliciously prepared with lots of garlic, onion and white wine and served with warm rolls for dipping in the tasty sauce. There are nightly drink specials available. After the mussels, we each tried a bowl of pasta Fagiole soup. Again delicious and just the right amount to fill us up. The Mona Lisa has a comfortable neighborhood bar/restaurant feel with tasty affordable food. If that's your style, check it out. Heck, we're going back tonight :-)

    Great local restaurant and bar. I absolutely love their pasta dishes! It's fresh and hot and always hits the spot. The baked ziti is awesome and you get a huge portion (as do you with all of their dishes)...you get your money's worth at this place. If you leave hungry it's your own fault. I'm also very picky about alfredo sauce and theirs is one of the best I've had. Same goes for their caesar salad dressing. It's a small place, has karaoke that can be fun, but overall it's a great crowd of people to hang out with if you choose. It's under new ownership now and I can honestly say I have high hopes for this place in the future. Friendly staff too! Plus you can't beat the fact that if you're just too damn tired or lazy to go there to eat, Grub Cab delivers their food to you if you live in the area! It's definitely a local gem.

    So I drank the koolaid & took some friends here tonite-first I called to make sure the Ice Cream Bar was available as the ads say-yep-guy who answered said yes starting at 6pm. We arrived at 6:30-banners outside touting lunch specials...strip mall location...not an upscale joint. Nice waitress, good food but NO FREE ice cream bar as advertised...waitress was embarrassed but really had no explanation...not cool...

    I have dined here before, but tonight took my grandfather who doesn't like ANYTHING. Well, I told him Mona Lisa was amazing and so we went. Thank you, thank you... grandpa is still raving! Linguine in white clam sauce, to die for... holy moly so many clams! Mussels, surf bread, pizza, canoli (sp) and another pasta I cannot spell, fantastic! Wonderful service with Gabby, cheap drinks and perfect, relaxed atmosphere. Again, thank you for making this experience everything and more for grandpa and us. We will be back soon!!! Now we must all be rolled home!

    My significant other and I go to Mona Lisa 2 to 3 times a week. Bar is great as is the food. We would recommend this place to ANYONE. Karaoke every night. Great food-great bar-great people. We have witnessed 3 parties so far for various occasions-birthday, anniversary, etc. It would appear that this is the place to have a party(we have seen as many as 20 people at a party). The people we have seen have had a blast and were extremely satisfied with the food and service, particularly with the manager-that would be EARL. I heartily agree. Earl is friendly, knowledgeable and extremely accommodating. Makes you feel more like family than a patron. Richard Rubin and Peg!!

    We usually like Mona Lisa a lot. We've been coming here for years. Today the 3 of us ordered the "take 3" lunch specials; pizza, cheese steak and baked ziti. It was all ok. The cheese steak was pretty sad. There wasn't any key lime pie. The deal wasn't such a deal. We used to enjoy the $5 lunch specials. The waitress seemed more stressed than ever! She is never super congenial. Oh well! Thanks, myellow

    Not sure how to rate them exactly. I have ordered the white pizza from here twice and was pleasantly surprised. Being Italian and moving here from NY I knew I would have to lower my standards but they did a great job with that particular pizza. This afternoon I had the eggplant parm dinner. It was awful, the pasta was nothing special, the eggplant was so salty I couldn't eat more than four bites. My mouth and stomach felt disgusting. It came with "Garlic Knots" Not quite sure how they are considered garlic knots. They were flavorless roles that came with some sort of olive oil. There were a few spices floating at the bottom of the oil but no flavor what so ever. Not impressed and very disappointing after spending $17.00 on the meal and another $3.00 on a tip. Not sure I will eat here again.

    Great food! Great service! Great fun! I went there for karaoke night and had a great time with friends. Their pizza was beyond delicious, I just wish they delivered to my area. I plan to come again soon.

    Friendly staff, graciously let us "hang" after we ate lunch. Thank you. But this is about food. The place was empty - - just 3 tables of patrons for lunch. Both our lunch special entrees arrived cold. How is that possible? The waitress forgot to bring me my salad and when she did is was ice cold, straight from the fridge. My baked ziti sicilian was not baked, it was microwaved. No sign of browning/bubbling of the mozzarella - and again cold. Cross this place off the list. Try somewhere else instead.

    Mona Lisa Italian restaurant has been significantly renovated for the better since the last time I visited the place. Now I do have to admit I have only gone here during lunch time on weekdays so I cannot comment on their dinners or their karaoke events after hours. However, when it comes to lunch its an awesome place. They used to have 2 items each day which were $4.95 each and every time you would go they change the 2 items to keep it interesting. But now they have changed it so that they always have 10+ items for $4.95 each and every day and their portions are huge. As long as you order something other than a sandwich from their lunch menu they give you complimentary fresh Italian bread with spiced up olive oil which is quite tasty. Overall I would rate Mona Lisa Italian restaurant 3.5 stars and highly recommend it for lunch.

    Give up on Atlantis, man. It's underwater. Shangri-La is overrun with tourists and drinking the water at El Dorado will give you the "gold runs," which sounds awesome but, trust me, it sucks. The bar at Mona's is the real place of legend. Karaoke every night WITH Queen's Somebody To Love on the list. Crisp and spicy 25c wings during NFL games. $1 burgers/pizza/meatballs/potted cacti specials every day. And for those thirsty during the midday, 42c drafts and well drinks. 42 cents. For an ice cold beer. It really is the answer to life and the universe and everything. Bonus points for: - Prompting the greatest post-drunken moment in bed ever. No sex or anything; I woke up the following morning wearing my T-shirt as a pair of shorts. Another Tuesday, another stretched out neckline. - Being the place of employment for my elementary school cafeteria monitor, who has to be a robot because she HASN'T CHANGED in more than 20 years. - Hosting the elusive, ancient Elvis impersonator who offers the worst rendition of Hound Dog I've ever heard. But man, does his bling sparkle or what? Yelp needs a sixth star.

    Fort Myers is a town that hides it's greatest bars and restaurants away in little shopping centers. This is the type unassumingly fun restaurant that's typical in Fort Myers. I especially enjoy the jolly crowd that comes for karaoke night! While the food isn't on a gourmet scale, it's just what would be expected, Amazing!

    Good pizza. I remember one of the older waitresses/owner? being like your typical mean italian aunt (my italian aunt really isn't mean though). Either way, she was just rude. My mom decided that by the end of the meal, she just had to make her smile, and she actually did. The food is really good though, so we'd come back even if she didn't smile.

    OK, I have read the posts about the service so this isn't news... but I have to vent a bit. We called ahead 2 weeks in advance to reserve a table of 20 for a birthday celebration. When we arrived the table was set and I thought "Good, maybe since they knew we were coming, they will be prepared for us." Boy, was I wrong. Our server was LITERALLY freaked out from start to finish. We waited so long to even order our meals that two people in our party bailed. The one individual wanted to order her meal to go (she was hungry after all) and asked if she put the to-go order in would it be done in 30 minutes. She was told flat out "no." What struck me the most was that the rest of the restaurant was EMPTY. What is this place like on a busy night? Does the staff not help one another? I think I saw tears in our server's eyes at one point. The restaurant lost out on a lot of sales that night too, we waited so long for things that we gave up ordering drinks and just finished our meals and bailed. There are far better places to go for mediocore Italian food in Fort Myers where at least the service is better.

    Ok. I have to say a lot of people told us to go here and so we were really looking forward. The place is small but staff is very friendly. Prices are good and happy hour/early bird deals ate good. BUT, do not go here for Pizza. I know some rave about it but I am from Chicago and this pizza is on par with Pizza Hut or Dominos. Sauce was tasteless and crust too doughy.I know there are not to many options for great pizza like I'm use to but don't go here and think you will get good pizza. Docs is the closest to ChicagoPizza so far

    Fantastic lunch deals for big portions all under $5 I think. Drinks add $$ but you get bread too. And the ziti is amazing. Server sweet but a little slow so order it all at once if on lunch break. Homemade sauce.. Mmmm

    Really cute place. The pizza was yummy but cold and we ate in the restaurant. I am not sure how you do that. I think the owners mom is the waitress and she is really slow. That may have had something to do with it.

    I have eaten here twice in the past 4 days. My fiancé and I are huge fans of Italian food and this restaurant has the nice homey mom and pop feel to it. Great lunch specials and Sunday dinner specials too. Definitely reccomend Mona Lisa's and I will be sure to come back often.

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
