“I truly couldn’t have had a better experience working with owner Massimo. I was planning my Moms 70th surprise birthday at Nabruzzi. Massimo couldn’t have been any more accommodating. He was so easy to work work right from the start. He was accommodating when it came to us reserving that back room, choosing a select menu. He even helped me set up the tables and allowed me to arrive earlier just so I could set up. His staff during the event were so extremely helpful. They were very organized and handled the event in a timely matter. They never rushed up to leave, their main priority was to make sure we were having fun. He was so beyond helpful from the start. He helped make my mom’s surprise party a successfull one. Even his wife was very accommodating when it came to making our selected menu. I highly highly recommend having a special event hosted at Nabruzzi. They were all exceptional to deal with from the start. Very affordable and extremely accommodating. The owner is a great business name and him and his wife are the team duo! This restaurant had some top tier authentic Italian food for an affordable price! Consider hosting your next special event here. Both him and his staff are all incredible to work with and I couldn’t thank them enough. My mom has a wonderful surprise birthday at Nabruzzi!! Thank you, Christina E“

“My wife and I after enjoying the Christmas festivities over here in Wesley chapel as we were visiting from Lakeland, we saw this place looking for a bite to eat and it was approximately 8:52 p.m. when we walked in. we asked how late they were open and they said 9:30 but would we still like a table, that spoke volumes so we said yes we would like to try this great smelling Pizza that we could smell as we were walking in. as we got in everybody's smiling happy the owner is just as friendly as can be the decorative walls is what really caught my eye. I have a friend from the island in Italy so it was very warming to know the detail of all the places about Italy. We got the Hawaiian pizza and we knew that this was definitely different than what we've had in the past, the ingredients were spot on the way it was made was incredible and we just sat there not being rushed to enjoy our meal everyone just going about doing what they do best and we just talking over the events of the evening and several times we just remarked about how good this pizza is. as we were close to leaving cuz we did not want to keep anyone late we were just wanting a quick bite to eat but something very good and we got it from this wonderful place the owner came up and asked what we thought and I remarked to him" questo è eccellente" this is excellent in Italian very kind-hearted man, sweet disposition and you see the love of what he is committed to, but I could honestly say when I seen how the workers just cheerful and in a very relaxed environment there's magic in this place, looking forward to going back on purpose to visit this particular place over in Wesley chapel!“

“The best pasta we've had in some time! Actually had it delivered and it was as if we were in the restaurant. The Chicken Alfredo was just heavenly with the chicken as tender and flavorful as could be. The Keto dish was the surprise in it's flavor and texture. Will definitely order or visit again.“

“The crew out here is unbeatable! I’m not feeling well and I ordered food curbside. I flaked on part of my order, it was totally my fault but they treated me above and beyond, as if it was their responsibility to help me when I messed up. They really made my night.“

“That’s what I’m talking about!!! Great food! What a great menu!!! Looking forward to many great meals to come. Town and Country needed a legit Pizza spot and Tomato Joe’s delivers!!! 🙌🏼“

“Met the nicest gentleman, Brian, who made the best mushroom pixxa!! Very tasty, indeed.“

“Came for last second drinks with my wife and had an amazing time. Our server Rashmika was not only super knowledgeable about the menu but super helpful when we were having trouble deciding. We agreed that this would be our new go to Olive Garden, hopefully we see her again!“

“Absolutely delicious and authentic food. We love the atmosphere. Friendly service and beautiful eatery…wide variety of market options. We love it. We enjoy each visit.“

“Amazing, food, vibe, drinks!“

“Having read about Piccolo Buco in the Tampa Bay Times, I was very excited to dine here. Upon arrival, the hosts seemed stressed. They asked if we had reservations; we replied no, and they said it would be a 1-hour wait. We decided to leave, but then changed our mind and made a reservation on OpenTable, which showed a wait time of 15 minutes, which was much better. The hosts seemed annoyed that we were back with our reservation this time. Luckily, after that, we had terrific service. Our server, Lauren, was so helpful in guiding us through the menu with recommendations. Her energy was radiant, and we felt very much in good hands. The food was delicious. The crust was out of this world. I was so impressed with our server, Lauren, the menu, and the restaurant's concept. I was hoping to share with management but every manager that walked by appeared visibly unapproachable. I’m not sure if it was an off day for them, but if it wasn’t for the pleasant energy and smiles from our server and back servers. I’m not sure I’d recommend this place. Hopefully, they employ more people with a heart and passion for hospitality. Thank you Lauren for being such a stellar server. They are lucky to have you.“

“Went to the Cedar Park location and had a great experience! The food was brought out quickly & was delicious. The manager even came to check on us after receiving our food and brought us a dessert too since it was our first visit here. Hospitality was superb and we’ll definitely be back!“

“If I could give 100 stars I would! We had pizza, wings, and dessert and boy oh boy was everything OUTSTANDING!! The service was amazing, the owner herself was the sweetest woman and taking care of us soooo nicely!!! Please if you have a chance STOP IN HERE!!! Not many places now have good food plus good service!!! We'll be backkkk! Thanks alot yall!“

“Great Service! Everyone is great! I always feel like family! I from NY and the Pizza is as close to home as I can find. Always keep coming back. I strongly recommend. Thanks Taste of NY.“

“It’s my favorite!! I have never had an issue and I’ve come here a lot!! The few rare times I had an issue with an order delivered by a third party, when I call they make sure to make it right. The workers have always been friendly, with one guy in particular that unfortunately I can’t remember his name but he’s there alot! I will find out and edit this after. Not sure if he’s the owner, a manager, or a regular worker but I love seeing him there! The food is great and it’s super cute!“

“Very nice little place. They have a lot of regulars that come in as the waitresses greet these people by name as they enter. That says a lot. The food we got was excellent. The picture is the garlic knots appetizer. Way more than we expected. The waitresses were very nice and we're at the perfect level of checking on us. Not pushy and not too distant. We will definitely be coming back.“

“Best services ever and very polite“

“Great all around thin crust pizza. Very consistent. Simple. No issues. Service is great when the kids (under 22) aren't working. Otherwise it's very monotone and feels like a machine. Don't let that steer you away. Simple really good pizza. End of story. Thats it.“

“Always have an excellent time. Going to Cappy’s. The pizzas excellent and it’s a great atmosphere. Staff is always on point.“

“Had an exquisitely nice afternoon with the fellas after a long day of intense yoga and palates. Pizza smelled amazing but because I am on the Paleo/Keto thing, I just stuck to the tasty meatballs. Next time I hope the sausage come with the meatballs.“

“Hungry Howie's Pizza consistently delivers exceptional service and quality. No matter the time of day, their promptness ensures I receive my order quickly, and they've never made an error with my meal. Their commitment to using fresh ingredients, like 100% mozzarella cheese and daily-made dough, truly enhances the flavor. For those seeking even faster service, calling ahead allows you to park directly in front of the store, making pickup a breeze. With their delicious offerings and efficient service, Hungry Howie's has become my go-to pizza destination.“

“👍 pizza and service. friendly staff“

“Bosco's is an amazing place. It's ran by such sweet and caring people. They make you feel at home as soon as you walk in the door. They have such big hearts and help to take care of those in need. We're so thankful to have them and be apart of our lives. The food is awesome.“
