“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 100 STARS IF I COULD! ✨

We’ve lived locally for a year and I cannot believe this absolute gem was right in front of us the whole time. Mandola’s Italian Restaurant in Riverview completely blew us away from the moment we walked in.

Every single detail was exquisite — the service, the food, the atmosphere, the vibe… all perfection. You can genuinely feel the care and pride from everyone: the cooks, the servers, and the store managers. The attention to detail is unmatched.

When I say I left charmed, I mean it. I’m already telling everyone I know about this place, and we are officially becoming regulars. 💯

I’ve never been to Italy (it’s high on my bucket list), but wow… the second I stepped inside Mandola’s, it truly felt like I traveled. The warmth, the authenticity, the experience — just WOW.

This place isn’t just a restaurant, it’s an experience. Highly, highly recommend. 🌟🇮🇹🍝“

“Closest to a NY pizza on the west coast of Florida! Also a BEC on a poppy seed Keizer roll NY style.

But the Sicilian we ordered a few days after Christmas was very disappointing. It was very busy and there was a long line. So I ordered online instead. The Sicilian pie was made on what tasted like stale Italian bread. Was difficult to chew, hardly any sauce, and the pie had No flavor. Tasted like cafeteria school lunch. So unfortunately we had to throw it out.

That’s won’t stop us from returning to Frankie’s Deli as we truly Love their Pizza!“

“Great Food here in Brandon Like you never left NEW YORK! This is my favorite Italian Restaurant in Florida. It first has a wonderful ambience classy and romantic. I tried it with clients. Since then my wife and I have been going back ever since. The food is Amazing their Red Sauce is perfect could not be better. Their Chicken Parm is some of the best. Their Alla Vodka one of the best in Florida and they are always making memorable specials that you will be using bread to soak up the last drop. Great appetizers like the Carozza will tease your palate for more and more yummy goodness. A slice of delicious Limoncello cake and a cup of espresso is the perfect way to end a fantastic dinner out. The setting is perfect not to big “you feel you are in a subway station but not to small that you are eating dinner on the other table's lap.” It has a romantic and calming décor. Every other Wednesday they have live music. The wait staff is attentive, professional, playful, and friendly. Vito the manager and his nice wife are the best. They are from New York owned restaurants in New York they know how to make great food.“

The food is outstanding. Every dish tastes fresh, authentic, and thoughtfully prepared. You can truly tell they care about quality ingredients and presentation. The pasta is perfectly cooked, the flavors are rich without being overwhelming, and everything feels beautifully balanced. Pairing the meal with one of their wines makes the experience even better.

A special shoutout to Jhova, our server, who made the experience even more memorable. He was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable, offering great recommendations and making sure everything was perfect without ever making us feel rushed.

Che Vita is one of those places you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for excellent Italian food and a wonderful dining experience in Tampa! 🍝🍷✨“
