Family owned and operated, Don Vito's Italian Restaurant is a fantastic casual establishment that utilizes traditional recipes and comfortable surroundings to provide patrons with a meal they will not soon forget. Using fifth generation recipes passed down from their grandmothers in the kitchen, the chefs prepare authentic Italian dishes ranging from all of your favorites to some unique creations that you may not have experienced previously. All of this is served up in a comfortable dining room with black booths, and a number of pieces of Italian art and movie photos on the walls. Located in the quaint Beach Street area, which is across the bridge from the beach, Don Vito's is a must-visit Italian restaurant in Daytona

Jan 2, 2024Previous reviewNever disappoints this family secret Italian sauce is spectacular! I normally don't like cannoli but theirs is so tasty I can eat a dozen! Prices are very fair! Wine bottles selection fantastic! I am now a regular to this restaurant! Surprised there wasn't a line out the door!
Nov 10, 2023Previous reviewThis is the top Italian restaurant in the area. My wife and parents decided to try Don Vito's on a Thursday night. This was a great idea from the service to the best Italian meal I've had and finished off with an amazing homemade cheese cake and cannoli! We are planning to come back and back and back. We had the Italian sampler amazing. I ordered bolognese ziti amazing! We tried each others plates and said wow to every bite! Barbara our server and owner did a great job with my 90 year old dad. He's a little difficult and he was very happy. Trust me hard to do! Lol. The home made Italian sauces were off the charts good! What a find this was!

We came on a Saturday night at 730 pm for pizza. Barbara said they were not doing pizzas. We ordered pasta dishes, all were good size portions and hot. Decor is old Gangster movie theme. We were the only table and service was fast.

Best Italian I've Ever Had
No joke! This Italian spot made our whole trip to Daytona. The owner/ our server, Barbara, is a friggin Legend!! We felt like family the whole time, our food was almost TOO good, we left so stuffed because we couldn't stop eating it. If you see 1 bad review, ignore it because it's not true. This place is a GEM and I'd travel back to Daytona just for the baked ziti. Also the Caesar salad ... wow didn't think you could make a caesar anything special but it was delicious and big portion. The Lasagna omg let me tell you.. fantastic!! Her son stopped by our table to make sure we were satisfied and we ended up chatting, such a great guy, truly felt like home & home cooked meal. All around a lovely spot. Thanks again Barbara !! Much love!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Shannon B.Dallas, GA04922Sep 3, 2023
Daytona needs a slice
Barbara is the heart of the restaurant. Character abounds in this family restaurant.
You get out of the car go the the door and realize this is either going to be the restaurant no body goes to or a hidden gem not far down from the race track.
3 other people described meal as great and delicious as they paid to leave. One lady said it was the best eggplant parm and she would definitely be coming back.
They are presently changing the menu but what we had was definitely fresh from the kitchen.
We had the knots, cheese pizza, eggplant parm
And carbonara with chicken.
I'd get the eggplant again but would put it on pizza. The carbonara was very tasty and one of Barbara's sons favorite.
The helping were plentiful. We got ours to go but left wanting for nothing.
We'd return to get our pizza and ravioli fix.
Leave the hunger take the cannoli.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Camille G.Hodgmans Daytona, Daytona Beach, FL03419Dec 15, 2023
Starting with the appetizers.... The bruschetta was explained to be the best anywhere and it was far from it, but it's their recipe and it's everyone's taste....however, on a bright note, the meatballs and marinara were yummy. The bread is great and made in house, but served with fake cheap spread and lessened it's flavor ...we all knew who the owner was since she stayed at

Food was delicious! The marinara sauce is excellent and the garlic knots are a must. Left completely stuffed but worth every bite. Would love to go back and try a pizza or calzone next time.

What a great hole in the wall! We know your thinking seafood when u visit the beach, but this place is not to be overlooked!
The owner was also our waitress, takes a minute, but very cool and casual. The wait was worth it. The marinara sauce is off the charts!
Escape the hustle and bustle of the beach and busy area's, set aside an hour and a half or so and go enjoy some amazing italian food!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Timothy C.Southside, Jacksonville, FL261824Jun 18, 2023

Outdated interior. Very dark and old.
Duck tape on some of the booths.
Reserved signs on tables to make you feel like they were going to have a full restaurant. We were one of three tables on a night that should have been much busier.
Food. Average to slightly below average and the red sauce was well below average. Not sure why there are so many good reviews. Maybe folks just don't know real good Italian food.
Not much good to say.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
