This is one of our favorite restaurants in Tampa. The food is amazing, excellent service as well. We love the ambiance and how they treat us. Warm and cozy place for a great meal.

Don't know why they raved about the atmosphere, I've found it to be below average and cheap. The food was good but not enough for the price. Service was decent. Noise level was high , we couldn't hear and communicate with the waiter, so we asked if the piano can be turned down. We didn't go to a restaurant to hear a piano concert. Supposed to be background music. My choice was the cioppino, it's a dish that I love and I have it whenever I find it. This wasn't representative of what it should be and at $39.00 was a disappointment. It was served on a flat plate, a no no for a seafood soup and to complete the picture accompanied by a fork. Had to ask for a fork so I can scoop up the broth. The size of it was small, went home and had a snack. I hope the owners read this. See pick.

We are regular guests of this place. The husband and wife should be commended for providing very consistent and attentive food and service. The value is outstanding given the quality of Italian food. The seafood special which is cioppino on steroids was the most flavorful dish I have ever had. My wife always enjoys the veal Marsala and once again, consistently great. Sauce has the sweet notes from the Marsala cooking wine and a velvety texture from butter. Pepe and Fabri, well done again!

Our dinner with friends at Casa Costanza was excellent. We were greeted when we arrived and seated in a comfortable table in an inviting setting. The waitstaff was efficient and the food was terrific. We have dined at this restaurant on multiple occasions and it is consistently excellent. The food is prepared in an expert manner and served in a professional manner. The wine list is excellent as is the Italian food menu. An added bonus is the piano player that performed the entire evening. Although there was a completely full restaurant, we were able to converse with our guests without too much trouble. We will definitely return to the restaurant.

Charming strip mall gem with terrific pasta, great staff, and a very cool bar. Every dish our party of six had was wonderful, with flavorful sauces. The house salad dressing is unique and delicious. Support this great spot!

Had dinner here recently and it was fantastic. I had the gnocchi and it was honestly the best italian food i’ve had in an extremely long time. The atmosphere is fancy while still being friendly and perfect for families or romantic dinners. The waiter was great and extremely helpful when deciding menu items. Overall, I would strongly recommend this place for families, romantic dinners, or special occasions

Giuseppe and his team are amazing. During Covid, they kindly seated my family outside, as my dad had cancer and could not be inside. It was my parents' 45th, and Casa Cozenza and their team made our night amazing. The service was great, and we felt special. We have been here for many family events. When my dad passed, I couldn't think of a better place to honor his love of food. Giuseppe was amazing and was so kind and thoughtful as I dealt with grief and planning a memorial dinner. He was thoughtful and offered up a great fixed price menu for our party of 20. When we got there, the service was second to none, and the food was amazing. They made an anxious and sad day amazing, and our family loved all the food. I can’t thank them enough for supporting me during the hardest time of my life. The food there is amazing and you will be treated like family.

This may be the finest Italian dining experience yoy will find in the Tampa/Clearwater area. Everything is made fresh daily. Go there and enjoy. Be sure to plan ahead with a dinner reservation
We had a wonderful birthday celebration for my mother-in-law here. The food was delicious and the service was superb. The live piano was a classic touch without being overpowering. The owner from Italy spent time at our table and shared that his wife is the chef. We will definitely be back!
