“We sat outside on a busy Saturday night. Love the variety of Italian pizzas. Had the deep dish with anchovies and meats and mushrooms. First for me. Quite tasty and the crust was excellent. The normal crust pozzabi found cooked too much on the bottom and it was crusty and crunchy. Is that always the way it is cooked? Service was great. We took a piece of lemon cake home and had it with ice cream and soaked in maple syrup. Excellepbt“
“A wonderful little gem is Buona Ristorante. While on vacation, my family and I were searching for a nice location to eat, and this restaurant immediately came highly recommended! Due to the establishment's popularity, there was a wait, but the food was excellent. Diana, the restaurant's owner, was amazing and incredibly amiable. We ate the pizza, which was delicious! However, there are plenty of meat and pasta dishes. The prices are really fair. All things considered, this was one of our favorite restaurants that we visited while on vacation. Without a doubt, we'll return. And lastly, the tiramisu was incredible. Fernando served as our waiter as well, and he did an excellent job of serving us. Enjoy!!“
“Such a great gem! The place is big but still feels cozy and like you’re at home. The food is some of the best food my husband and I have ever had. We had the chicken Marsala and seafood portobello which were just heavenly. Salads, bread and appetizers were all wonderful as well. The servers seem to work as a team to make sure everyone is taken care of on all fronts so we were never wanting for anything. Highly recommend for a romantic date night or celebration dinner.“
“If you prefer NY style pizza look no further! I highly recommend the Badabing. Everything we've tried has been very good and the prices are extremely reasonable. Their delivery drivers are very prompt and on time, calling to make sure they find the correct apt. I appreciate that. The house salad is a huge portion! Enough to feed at least 2 ppl. The mozzarella sticks are on point. My fav. Fantastic pizza spot! A rare find in the land of mediocre pizza and high end overpriced pizza places. Keep up the great work guys!“
“Da Sesto continues to be a part of my annual trip to the Tampa area for Spring Training. This is my 6th or 7th year of making Da Sesto part of my dining plans and never disappoints. An incredible selection of food and beverage in a wonderful atmosphere with excellent service. Make sure to leave room for dessert!“
“This is one of my favorite local restaurants and feels like a hidden gem. We’ve been here multiple times and their recent renovations look amazing and give an updated vibes. Services always great and food is delicious and authentic. Recommend the saltimboca and Marsala.“
“Excellent service and atmosphere. I ordered half a rustic loaf ($6) with olive oil dipping- it was amazing! Salad )$6) was fresh- but too much dressing, get it on the side. I never order chicken parmigiana ($28) when I go out but WOW! The chicken was real, fresh, think, beautiful caramelization; pasta perfect al dente. Definitely going back!“
“First time I came here I was blown away. Came back almost a year later to double check. Sure enough this place is still great. Order a gourmet pizza I truly believe its the best pizza in Florida!! Brushetta and Tiramisu are always excellent. Service is a little lacking but not bad enough to dock a star. A must try if you are in the area!!Parking: Limited spots during the rush“
“OK, first let me say I could drink the Greek salad dressing...I must not be the only one because they sell it by the bottle, lol. The Greek salad is amazing they have two types.. and the sandwiches are big.. They also have a bakery section. I tried cheesecake once it was fresh and well made.“
“We hired them for our Annual Party and they were awesome. Great communication, showed up early, and the food was terrific! I can't wait to go downtown on my own and try some of their other delicious food selections. We would definitely use them again. Thanks again for making our party great!“
“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!“
“The food is always amazing. We have been here a few times before and never has the food or service been less than perfect. My husband and I eloped recently and had a family dinner here after. The owner and our waitresses were so sweet and kind and did everything they could to make the meal go perfect (which it did!) I am very grateful to the owner and I believe his daughters who made a special evening perfect with amazing food for us and our families“
“Such a cool little pizza joint! Definitely the local pizza place, service was so good by the girl working. Very personal, treated us as though we were regulars. The food is very good. Loved their cheese bread and garlic knots! They have an awesome sauce that they heat, which is always the best. They do sell beer which is a BIG PLUS! Their atmosphere was quaint, but fitting. March Madness on TV with an awesome music playlist running in the background. So glad we went out of our way to try this place!“
“As always, the entrées are delicious. Homemade from scratch, NEVER frozen or microwaved. The homemade Spaghetti sauce is, without a doubt, the best!!! Meatballs are tasty and melt in your mouth. Bread is homemade and served hot. This is the only Italian restaurant for me, not to mention their exceptional homemade pizzas, and hoagies.“
“Looks from the outside: sketch. Very lovely on the inside though. Comfortable chairs. The wait staff were AMAZING. I got the Spaghettle al Nero (squid ink black spaghetti) with mussels and shrimp in a garlic lemon sauce. Delicious! Portions were exceptional and they gave you a ton of mussels. My guest got their butternut squash ravioli and she loved it! Wish they gave some bread to dip in oil or at least a garlic knot or something with the entrées. But it was really tasty. The parking is horrible so be warned, but otherwise it was good food, good atmosphere, and great service. It was a bit warm in the restaurant, even on a not-so-hot day (it was about 70°F). We did make reservations and they had a reserved table just for us, which was fantastic.“
“Immediate great vibe on entering. Served quickly and even got a custom order made by the staff that was phenomenal. The pizza is phemonal, generous portion sizes and a fun friendly staff and great place to grab a quick filling lunch or dinner.Not only is this my goto pizza place whenever possible, but now i stop in even if i just want a great salad!Dietary restrictions: Had no problem at all getting a low carb awesome chicken salad made custom for m when I shared one of our party was on severe dietary restrictions. Not only a great salad but one of the best salads I've tasted in a very very long time!“
“An absolute diamond in the rough, a gem !!! Authentic Italian food with superb service by a very attentive staff. Atmosphere is good and location is a goldmine.....touch to park but worth the drive. One of our top FAVORITE place to eat when in the area.“
“On spring break and got rained out for our evening plans. We had a late lunch/early dinner at Harold Seltzer’s, so a “second dinner” was on the agenda.The pizza was excellent! Perfect crust (I asked for well done), sauce had fantastic flavor and tang and the sausage was on point. Highly recommended!While we didn’t dine in, choosing carry out, the restaurant had an old school vibe. The place was packed when I went in and the pick-up counter had 3 people (including me) picking up orders.“
“DeRusso's (or Marco's as we still refer to it) is a gem on Tierra Verde and surrounding. A solid and reliable experience with good pizza (request "very" well done and double cut) apps (meatballs and garlic knots), subs, salads, dinners and more. They have a bar and small dine-in area that is cozy and convenient and don't forget, they deliver!! ??“
“This was our first time ordering here and I can definitely say "I'll be back soon and often" .Pizza was excellent - my wife and I ate the whole 14". Great Crust and plenty of toppings. Carlos makes you feel like an old friend from the neighborhood.“
“Ate dinner here for the first time Friday night and everything we ordered was very good. HUGE portions - we got pasta dishes because we saw so many being ordered and they didn’t disappoint. Service was good despite them being busy, we even brought dessert home. We will definitely be back or try the convenient pickup window, there’s so many other things we want to try.“
“We have been coming here yearly since 2011. This trip I had the pollo verducci and my wife had the rigatoni ala vodka. Both were outstanding. The woman who served us was a delight. We’ve never had anything but a great experience at Verduccis. We highly recommend this restaurant and hope to return for many more annual visits.“
“Oh my goodness, what took us so long to finally stop and eat at Circo Italian Kitchen after driving past it twice daily? Their homemade pasta is out of this world; their sauces to die for; their homemade bread served with sweet tomato jam and Kalamata olive tapenade is a mouth-watering start-up. If there is a finer Italian restaurant anywhere—and I’m including Italy, too, as I have dined all over Italy—I know not where it is. We absolutely laud the chef at Circo (we did to his face as well tonight). He definitely has mastered the multiple savories in Italian cooking!“
“A small, quarky yet great place with fantastic food that was delicious, an excellent staff to guide you through the experience. I highly recommend this little gem!Vegetarian options: I am vegetarian and recommend this place. Great food, it is homemade, so there will be calories, but it is well worth it!“
“We absolutely love this place. The food is amazing and so are the people. We have been ordering from here almost every Friday night for over a year and we have not gotten one disappointing pizza. We can’t say that for any of our other beloved spots in the area. And the cannoli cheesecake….DEvine ♥️“
“A great experience. The eggplant parmesan was Yum..excellent, delicious.Had..the Godfather sub was very, very good.Everything everything is delicious there at a cup of cappuccino yum..was like eating in italy ?? thank you so much. The customer service was genuine and very helpful,“
“Amazing bread, salad and huge food portions! Our waitress was amazing (I wish I remembered her name!) It was our 2nd visit there (and won't be our last!) We are from Pennsylvania and will visit there again! Wish we had room for dessert but we didn't! Leftovers for lunch the next day, Chicken picatta and Spaghetti with meat sauce!“
“The pizza was really great. My fav since we moved in Pinellas Park area in Oct. The crust was good, nice cheese the toppings were delicious. I wish it was a little greasier but others wouldn't agree so ?. The wings were good. Cooked just right & they were a nice size. We had mild sauce it had a nice flavor. The salad was a nice salad but I wouldn't recommend the house dressing. It had ZERO taste. No vinegar, no seasoning, just the lightest of extra Virgin olive oil. It's as though they don't have a voice in the dressing dept.“
“This is a hidden gem. I have eaten here twice, both time fantastic. Both my visits were for lunch but this visit I tried the hand tossed pizza. It was fantastic.Very nice little facility, but kinda hidden on the back of this lot. Nice outdoor seating, but I have always set inside.Service has always be great and I'm hoping to go back again this week while I'm in Tampa.“
“Went with my wife March 15th for the first time on recommendations from friends.We started with salads and they were great. (Caesar and House)Ordered a carafe of their Cabernet Sauvignon which was very good.The bread and Olive Oil with their seasonings was the best we ever had.I ordered Chicken Parmesan and the wife Eggplant Parm.Both were fantastic.We split Tiramisu and loved it.Jenna took care of us and she was very friendly and helpful with suggestions.We did not order pizza but iot looked good.“
“Some of the best Manicotti I have had. Our whole party loved their meals. We were in the area on vacation and we will be back next year. Only downfall was the server was not in a good mood and didn't really check up on us. But could have he been the end of a long day for her.“
“New and amazing Italian. Not the same pizza place it was, under new ownership and renovated atmosphere. We usually go downtown St. Pete for good Italian food, but so happy to know there’s a great place nearby. From food to service, it was honestly amazing. 100% recommend and we will definitely be back.“
“From the minute we walked in, the staff was very friendly and attentive. Our server, Tracey, was really knowledgeable about the menu and reccomended the Fettuccine Carrabba and my husband couldn't say enough good things about it! We also had calamari as an appetizer. It was super crispy, tender and flavorful. Our Caesar salads had homemade dressing which was exceptional. My Chicken piccotta was so juicy and plentiful I had it for lunch the next day, and it was even tastier if you can believe it! Can't wait to go back to Carrabba. ?“
“My wife hosted a meetup group here which was attended by 6 people. This was our first time there, as well as for most of the party. The food was amazing, and ther service was above expectations. we had seen it passing by, as we just recently moved to the area, and are both so glad we hosted the meetup here, and will definitely be returning.“
“Very good pizza. The downside is that they had NO hot drinks, even on a very chilly night! Service was okay, but the waitress was rather snarky. The atmosphere was simple, like the small diner it is, but they had Great music playing! I'd go back again.“
“Ippolito Italian Deli catered my son’s rehearsal dinner. We had 102 people attend this event in June. Catered was an Italian dinner buffet and the food was amazing. Everyone loved the food. I would recommend Ippolito Italian Deli for any event.“
“Food is always good here! Also I love when I call 80% of the time there is a ??happy employee on the other end making me laugh when I start screwing things up??. There are some nice and funny delivery people.. It's I making them starts Laughing cause I am dodging my MOTHER-IN-LAW trying to get the food around from back . . ANYONE KNOW ABOUT? SCARY MOTHER IN LAWS?.LOL. ??“
“Busy place, but we'll staffedBest to call ahead and get a pickup numberPizza was good but not as crispy as I liked itPrices are good.Coupons availableWe also ordered2 Meatball Subs special $11,99They were a bit dryCould use more sauceOverall, good place!“
“Just finished dining in with my mom, and was served by an amazing server named Cami. I actually used to work at an Olive Garden long ago so I definitely know she went above and beyond with her service, she was just so sweet and welcoming. I wish we had cash on us to give her a better tip since my mom accidentally messed up on how much she wanted to provide -was supposed to be 19 but ended up being 9 :( so hopefully this review can substitute for it and she sees this ? hope she gets the recognition she deserves, she’s a queen ?“
“Untouchables has the best pizza I have ever tasted. It is always cooked to perfection. My sister loves there chicken wings. Over the last 4 years we have tried many of there dishes and have taken calzones to parties. Always a hit. I live in NJ but go to Untouchables as often as possible while in Largo. Yummmmmmm.“
“We have now been here a few times and no matter what we order we have never had a bad meal or service! I’m very picky when it comes to my Italian food, as my grandparents came from Sicily. Everything we have tried is so full of flavor and tastes fresh! So glad we happened upon this spot as it is one of our favorites!“
“Very good pizza and pasta dishes. It’s been awhile since we’ve been there and we’ve always loved their wings. We decided to go last week. We quickly changed our minds on the wings when we saw the price of them! I know wings have gone up in price and we still order them at our favorite places but 2.00 per wing !! WTH Bro’s that’s crazy! We might be back but unfortunately it won’t be for wings like it was in the past.“
“Very accommodating! Looked so pretty online and it's even better in person. Definitely a whole experience and great way to celebrate our anniversary! Get the table side cesar salad closest thing to NOLA I have found in FL as far as ambiance and taste! We have had lost reservations in the past at other establishments and other bad experiences so it's nice to just be able to enjoy it. We will be celebrating here for now on“
“Very good Italian takeout place, although you can dine there as well. I am from New York City and come down to visit family. We always get takeout from here and we are all always very satisfied, which says a lot about being New Yorkers eating Italian/pizza in Florida. ;-) Their salads are great too, the Mediterranean is our favorite.“
“One of the best hungry howies. I use to live by the very first one on 4th st. in st. Pete the original. They number 1 and yall number 1.5. I've been to all different hungry howies in the state and city. I'm a gulf veteran was wondering could I get some coupons or discount.“
“We had a great late lunch April 14. Saw the sign board on the main drag, checked Facebook, good reviews so we stopped. I had a lunch special pizza. My wife had a calzone. Both were excellent. We had a chance to talk with the owner which made our time there really nice. When we are in Larfo again we know where will eat!“
“Best food so fast while on vacation. Service was great. Food selection was excellent, I would highly recommend it if you're staying in Madeira Beach. I'm already looking forward to my next stop there before we leave. Small place but the turnaround is very quick.“
