Reasons to love the Emerald Coast - Fat Clemenzas

Fat Clemenzas in Destin is the place to go if you want to dine at a wonderful little Italian restaurant. The name comes from one of the characters in the “The Godfather” and like the character from the movie, Fat Clemenza’s knows how to make a great pasta sauce.

Their homemade pizza is absolutely the best, cooked to perfection in one of their brick wood-fire ovens. You can choose from up to twelve different pizzas, each one delivering a unforgettable eating experience. If you think you’ve had good pizza in Chicago, just visit Fat Clemenza’s in Destin and you’ll soon realize that great pizza can be had in the heart of the Emerald Coast. If you’re wondering which pizza to order from their wonderful selection try the capricciosa.

The lasagna is equally as good or better than the pizza, with flavorful meat that will leave you wanting more.

They also serve three different calzones that you can’t beat anywhere else, certainly not in Destin. Try one of their sandwiches, one of their pasta plates, or just go in for one of their cannoli’s. Whatever you choose from the menu at Fat Clemenza’s, it’s sure to make you come back for more.

And if the food isn’t enough to entice you, the service is amazing! Upon entering, there is a warm greeting and feeling of coming home. You are likely to find the owner walking through the restaurant chatting with the customers.

They are located in the Holiday Plaza on HWY 98 in Miramar Beach. Call them at (850)650-5980
