It was so nice to get out for Date Night, with my husband (I love saying that)!
I recommended we go to "The Saucy Meatball" because, I drive through Gateway everyday to get to work and watched it being built. And, of course, I love Italian food!
We were seated right away. Kim was our server, she was great! :)
We ordered from the "Specials Menu" - we started with the appetizer, "Cousin Vinny's Fresh Mozzarella Paradiso" - Fresh mozzarella rolled with ricotta and prosciutto breaded and lightly fried served with a side of marinara sauce - it was delicious, perfectly breaded and filled. We shared a "House Salad" - Romaine, mixed greens, olives, cucumbers, croutons, carrots, celery, tomato with house dressing - generous portion of salad, perfect for a couple to share. My husband ordered the "Flavors of Italy" - Pork, eggplant and shrimp parmigiana baked with marinara sauce and mozzarella served with a side of spaghetti - He said it was the best Italian he has ever had, the pork was so tender, melt in your mouth (I tried a bite, it was), and he said it was just as amazing when he heated it up the next day. I ordered the "Steak Pizzaiola" - Filet tips sautéed in red wine marinara sauce with onions, peppers, & fresh mozzarella cheese served over pappardelle pasta - Every bite was amazing, the pasta and filet tips were cooked perfectly, the tips were so tender. I wish we had enough room for dessert - which was "Rum Chata Vanilla Bread Pudding", sounds so delectable.
We will DEFINITELY we back - so many deliciously sounding items on the menu to try!
Fantastic place! Just recently opened about a month ago. Wonderful polite service. The owner/manager, Alex, was very gracious. Had the Blackened Mahi-Mahi over Jasmine rice with small shrimp and grilled asparagus served with a red pepper cream sauce, which is a special. Fantastic! They use locally source products when available, to include the seafood. They have a large wine list along with a good selection of local micro-brews. Fantastic!
The food tasted great overall so a five but the garlic rolls were only mediocre. The snapper with risotto had a wonderful lemon flavour. We tried the thin crust old fashioned - excellent crust. Highly recommend the eggplant stack - crispy with a nice tomato sauce, delicious. Tiramisu for dessert, light with a strong amaretto flavour. We’ll be back. Went back two days later and had another great meal. Anxious to return.
10/25/23 first time here. Found this place on G Maps. Loved the name and saw the good reviews. So I met my friend here after flying in.
Really nice and friendly staff, great service.
I had the mussels marinara and my friend had the fried calamari, both dishes were really good (yeah i had to have some of that fried to perfection goodness!)
Also 4 garlic knots that showed up were really nice.
They have nice outdoor space too.
I'll be back at some point.
Definitely check this place out!
Happy birthday to me! That was quite a robust lunch; I'll enjoy leftovers for the rest of the week. Thank you for making it special.
I ordered the chicken marsala and husband ordered the chicken Parmigiana. He said his meal was great, my meal was just okay honestly I've had better chicken marsala. For me the real star was the warm butter rolls and their meatballs.
Tried the "Alfredo's friend Alejandro", it was so good, I'm a fan of Alfredo sauce but this one was different (in a good way) as the peas and mushrooms make it taste much better. Also, the garlic knots are on point.
Sal Basil’s knows Italian Food … and how to make it “oh so tasty.” His restaurant will leave you singing “Bellissimo, Ciao!”
The portions are sized the way Americans eat - more than enough to stuff two bellies.
Ambiance and decor are fantastic while being tastefully decorative.
Come on in, belly up to the bar or the table (inside or out), and be sure to bring family or friends. You’re gonna need help to clean the plate.
You asked what’s good? My response is - “What’s not?” It’s literally all good. Do yourself a favor and eat here. You won’t regret this robust, tasty, seasoned properly (not too much) Italian Food.
Mwah! Enjoy? Buon Appetito!!!
Great restaurant. The atmosphere and location are second to none. One of my favorite dishes is the pasta Bolognese. I also love the salmon with pasta tossed in a light lemon sauce.

I was looking for a good Italian restaurant in Fort Myers and I found one! It is called, the Saucy meatball! Wow! This place is great! It is really tucked away in a little Plaza. But when you go in, it looks like take out only. Then you are escorted to the back where it opens up into a very large dining room and they even have very large dining spaces outside! The appetizers and the food were extravagant. The drinks are very reasonable, and they even have non-alcoholic options. For the price of everything, you really got a lot of delectable food that was handmade in the kitchen. They had more than enough staff to serve you while you're eating. Their restrooms are some of the best restrooms I have ever seen and they are handicapped accessible as well . The parking lot is tight but they still have ample enough amounts of parking spots and handicap spots up front. The only downside was that the Uber Eats Personnel we're parking in the handicap spot. Not good! The Saucy meatball should address this immediately.
Yesterday was our 2nd time at The Saucy Meatball with our friends. Our server, "AM B" per my receipt, I failed to get her name, but she was amazing! She did not miss a beat from the time we checked in to the time we checked out. Shout out to AM B (per my receipt), Check #28, Table 20, 11/18/23 1:32 PM. Keep up the great work and we wish you the best in whatever you want to do. The food for everyone (5 guest) was all perfect. The quantity and quality of their food was also top notch. We sat outside and yesterdays weather with the ceiling fans working was also perfect. Overall my family and friends were pleased. We will be back and we highly recommend The Saucy Meatball. To owner and management, please keep, maintain and improve. We wish you much success.
First time at this location. Very nice place, reasonable prices and good portions. The atmosphere was light and breezy, the restaurant was extremely clean and neat.
Our server (Alice) was the best! We had a delightful dinner.
