The restaurant was able to take our fairly large group on short notice which we greatly appreciated. The server was hopeful with regards to the menu, explaining some of the dishes, and indicating what dishes they were currently out of. The baked hummus was amazing. Unfortunately, some of the other meals were overdone, with my chicken being burnt on several edges. Still, it was a fun experience, and I think I will be back for more baked hummus.
Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance was easily accessible. Handicap parking was available across the street, but none really close to the restaurant. I did not use the restroom so I cannot make any statements about its accessibility.

Wonderful place. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Shawn was our waiter and he was excellent. The lamb was superb, all the food was. Definitely worth it. I’ll be back soon

I am a long time customer of Cafe Zuppina and would always recommend them to anyone who appreciates authentic Mediterranean cuisine. The owners are amazing and I have been going there since Berna was primarily the only one cooking and serving. However, I have to admit that I miss the old location. It was quaint, cozy, and was set up perfectly, outside of the Mutz Lakeland bubble that has aspirations on being like South Tampa or Saint Pete. It’s just one man’s opinion, but the atmosphere in the new downtown location doesn’t compare. I know that time moves on and changes all things, but I miss the simple days when it was just a great woman and her kitchen, or even after they renovated the old location. I will always support Cafe Zuppina out of loyalty, but sometimes things can become too big and lose what made them special in the first place. I would like to see them revert back to the old model, but I know that is unlikely to happen. Just my two cents.

Quaint. Lovely service. Food was delicious! We will go again.
I went to previous location several times to buy baklava. This was my first visit to new location. The baklava is now prepackaged with 4 PCs. There was no price or label on the container. Went to the bar to check out and was shocked to hear $15 for 4 pcs of baklava. The lady stated it was because it was imported from Turkey, it previous location price use to be less than $10. Won't be buying from here again.

The food was beyond expectations. So many different flavors on one plate that work together so well.
My waiter, Eric (sp?) was super awesome. Attentive and helpful while not being intrusive.

The atmosphere was great. Our server was congenial and attentive. The food tasted amazing. The wood-firing oven added to the atmosphere and to the food.
