“Best pizza ever. The crust and the sauce are the best we've ever tasted. First time we ate this pizza was in October 2025 while we were here on vacation and we knew when we came back in June, we would have to have it again. We dread going home to Tennessee and having to eat from the pizza options we have. Oh and the chicken wings are excellent also.“

“Great food, clean restaurant and wonderful service

We had a really great experience at Olive Garden. The restaurant was very clean, cozy, and had such a pleasant atmosphere.

The food was delicious, fresh, and exactly what we wanted for a nice family meal. The service was excellent — our server was very friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed.

Everything was comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. We had a wonderful time and will definitely come back again!“

“Took my GF for her birthday and they made it very special with a special table cloth and a birthday cannoli! The food was amazing and so was the service from Becky. Not to mention the atmosphere was very old Italian and romantic, making me look like I knew what I was doing in choosing it. I didn’t. It was our first visit but we WILL be back.“

“I took my daughter to this establishment for her birthday. We had reservations, but I noticed limited parking upon arrival; however, I found a spot. We waited a few minutes and were seated. Our server, Leah, greeted us, and we ordered beverages and an appetizer. I knew what I wanted right away, while my daughter took a bit longer and chose the lasagna. When the food arrived, the generous portions impressed us. Both of our meals were delicious. I mentioned to the server that it was my daughter's birthday. The head chef also checked in to see if everything was good. Bruce, who was fantastic, surprised my daughter with a big slice of chocolate cake and sang Happy Birthday with the crew. Great job! We will be back again.“

“It was so good and the atmosphere was amazing.“

“Me and my wife went to the mall to get shoes and we got hungry. We seen the Italian slice eatery, so we order a steak and cheese sub and a gyro platter total with tip was $30.
Price was a little high but we get it, it's in a mall and prices are higher because or rent etc.. but the food Holly hell was it a surprise! The best gyro i have eating in St. Pete and the steak and cheese was phenomenal!! You guys have something here!! Ppl need to go and try your food it is amazing!!“

“The best Italian food.. I have tried all their variety of foods and I recommend it.. it’s.. flavor is exquisite go and try it to see for yourself“

“I found a diamond here! Excellent authinic NY style pizza and knots from what I experienced! Pricing was well worth it and the lunch specials alone could draw you in. Also, they looked to have a wide variety of homemade Italian dishes available made to order. They have slices for in and out service or tables for you to enjoy right in house.“

“Definitely a diamond in the rough!! There were 5 in our party and even tho we waited awhile it was definitely worth it. Our waitress was excellent and let us know from the beginning that she was backed up but would be back to us as soon as she could check on the other tables. She was actually the only server on duty!! The food was also excellent and well worth the wait and the price was very reasonable. We also sat where we could watch the kitchen staff working their butts off handling table orders as well as a stream of take out orders. All 5 of us agreed our experience was worth every minute. While we were there I didn't hear any complaints at all, which is highly unusual when you have any kind of wait. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We even tipped the kitchen staff for their hard work.“

“Soooo refreshing to enjoy a true, delicious, fresh Italian Pizza! This little gem in the plaza with Publix is tucked away, but what a gem. Calzoni, meatballs, chianti, tiramisu, cappuccino… absolute heaven! So happy to have discovered it :) Bon Appetit!“

“I would like to thank Olti and Wanda at Bro's Pizza for helping make the food at our Non-profit fundraiser a wonderful success. Between them both, they helped us to select great items and pizza 🍕 toppings that would work to serve our crowd. The pizza was plentiful and delicious. Upon pick-up, the 20" pizzas were hot and ready. We really appreciate the quality of the food and how attentive the owner, Olti and Wanda were to the smallest of details for us. I would not hesitate to use Bro's Pizza for my next event. They were such a pleasure to work with and the food was beyond delicious. Thank you once again. Carol (Cari) Heald S.E.

“I Love Going To Gianni NY Pizza with my Mom it’s Always A Fun Time With Her Haven’t Been There In A Few Months But It’s Worth The Reive Across Town.“

“This weekend we had ordered delivery from your SPB location and the tall lean male driver was impatient at our door. I only have two hands, yet he wanted to drop quickly and go. At our age, we want a tad of respect because we cannot move as quickly as he can, but it may be the wrong profession for this chap.“

“The pizzas are great we ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and it was fantastic. But the pasta entrees are my family’s favorite. The pasta puttanesca is truly amazing. We have been here a few times and we order it with shrimp or blackened chicken. The portions are American Italian so you will have some to take home. The house salad is also excellent. The Italian Margarita is a refreshing drink after a few hours in the burning sun.“

“The food was fresh, flavorful, and served at the perfect temperature. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. The staff provided excellent service, being friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the visit. Overall, a very satisfying dining experience“

“The food was delicious but what made my day was my server Jennifer. She was welcoming and on top of everything. Her suggestions were in point. I would ask for her service to go with my food ANYTIME!“

“Sages catered a luncheon for us this week and everyone loved it! We ordered the lasagna and chicken Marsala, salad and breadsticks and it was delivered on time, hot & delicious! We will definitely use them again!! It was affordable too! Thank you Patty & Brandon!! (Morton Plant hospital)“

“I very seldom write a review but our experience at Gigis on Treasure Island last night was exceptional. The food was excellent but even if it had not been, the service was so exceptional we would not have noticed. I called him the ghost server. Every time I would start to ask for something it was already on our table and we never saw it delivered. If you want exceptional service ask for Hiram the next time you eat there. You will not be disappointed.“

“best pizza & wings around!!! my little one loves their spaghetti and mozzarella sticks too!! && the staff is always so nice & fast. Definitely my fav Italian restaurant!!“

“Last time I’m ordering from you due to the delivery driver. Time to replace him! Can you not hire a friendly individual?“

“First try, never knew this place was here.. hidden Gem.. food is decent, portion size is fantastic. I got ravioli, didnt know it came with garlic bread and a salad.. I was so full!! I'd pay 10 bucks for all that, any day... versus 12 at McDonalds.. yuck.. this was great!“

“Food was awesome! Great place to stop.“
