This experience was overall amazing! Our waitress was extremely attentive, the bus staff was on point making sure tables were consistently cleared.THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS! I tried one of their specials which changes every weekend. I had the seafood risotto, which tasted like a homemade paella. The ingredients were on point and bursting with flavor! Talk about comfort food! We had a variety of dessert as a big group. We tried the special dessert and a few from the regular menu. These chefs definitely know how to create an amazing plate that’ll have you talking and coming back for more. Well done.

The fish of the day, snapper, was a bit dry and it took 30 minutes for a waitress to come over, with the help of a mgr.

It was nice but for the price, expectations were much higher. Everyone got daily specials and wine. Appetizer was best part of meal. Steak with risotto was way overdone, even a tad burnt. Service was ok but in no way stood out. Either step up your game or lower your prices.

Walking into the restaurant was very warm and inviting we were taking to our seats right away, Tim was our server He was amazing. He explained everything on the menu with detail and also the specials we got the special risotto and fish dish they where out of this world I’ve been here a few times before idk if there is new chef making these new specials but wow the flavors where spot on we don’t get out much but when we do we don’t mind spending the money to eat great food what a good gem in this Community keep up the great work !

2 apps, 3 glasses of win and 1 entree was $100. NOT worth it!I was told this place was the best Italian food in Tampa so gave it a last minute try on a Saturday. It was packed so that's a good sign. The menu is good with a nice variety of items. They say they make their pasta homemade...but not all their pasta FYI. Only the fettucine according to our server. We had the calamari app which was very good except the marinara dipping was ice cold...like right outta the fridge cold.We also had the clams which was in a watery "sauce" that didn't have much flavor and the clams weren't firm at all. It was weird.For the main we had the orecchiette w sausage which was NOT homemade pasta and there was waaaaaaaay too much sausage...actually more sausage than pasta! (see the photo) The sausage was very good but too much of it and it all sat in a watery sauce.The cannoli was good but not homemade.2 apps, 3 glasses of win and 1 entree was $100. NOT worth it!Being Italian and having spent a LOT of time in Italy, this was a big disappointment. It was out of the way so definitely not worth the drive. I wish them well and hope they get back to the form they were known for when they opened. I hear it was exceptional.
Excellent food and the atmosphere very nice. Our server was very good and attentive. Would highly recommend.

Very disappointing experience. While the menu items are reasonably priced, the replacement costs are unimaginably very high. Waiter initially asked us whether we are first time guest and she explained about ordering non-menu items and/or replace menu items as desire. We ordered one menu dish (priced $14) by replacing meat with chicken and mushroom added to it. We were charged a whopping $30. The second item we ordered is a non-menu item, a standard Spaghetti with chicken and alfredo sauce. Charged a whopping price of $34.99 for this simple dish. We are totally shocked after seeing the bill, when asked the waiter she told it costs $10 for replacing chicken and $6 for adding mushrooms for the first item, and $34.99 for a non-menu item though. It made me speechless and felt very cheated. Will never go this place again. Period!
My son refuses to eat any other type of pizza now. Lol The food and service is great! I try to go early though so not sure how busy times are. Please keep UberEats on for pizza!

First time customers, recommended by a neighbor. Thought we'd give it a try for (my) birthday dinner. We had a reservation but at the last minute our son wanted to join us, so when we got to the restaurant we told the person at the desk (owner? manager?) that we had 5 instead of 4. I cannot remember the last time I have been spoken to so rudely. This man told us that our reservation was for 4 not 5 and he couldn't seat us. Not much else to do when they tell you to pound salt than to leave. While we were standing outside waiting for the rest of our party and arranging for another restaurant, my husband went back in and was able to arrange for us to be seated. The rest of our party arrived and then we learned about this person's lack of phone skills as well. When my sister in law called to make the reservation and arrange for a birthday dessert he was quite put out - she even had to bring her own candle!The server was fine. The food was okay. I will never go back, but if I did I would get something different than the pasta, but the appetizers and salad were good.It's a shame that the first impression walking in the door was so negative and borderline hostile.

What an exquisite experience from the staff to the atmosphere and just the aroma. The pizza will make you feel like you're back in Napoli and drink pizza beachside in Italy. Thin light delicious toppings and steaming hot to your table side.The pasta dishes from the tagliatelle to Milanese and so many other dishes leave you asking what did they order every time the waitresses go by.Yes! It all looks good and tastes wonderful.
Went here to attend an organization function. Everyone was SO kind and helpful! The service was TOP NOTCH especially with our large party. Morgan knew how to make everyone feel special and welcomed. She made sure we were taken care of from bread, drinks, meals and desserts. There was another server assisting, and I didn't get her name because she was helping the other half of our party. She also was excellent.The food was very yummy. But what I can't get over was DESSERT.... The limoncello cake was so light and not overly sweet. Perfect ending.Thank you for the amazing time!
