Bavaro's Pizza Napoletana & Pastaria

Had a great girls night dinner out last night and was lucky enough to have Jennifer be our server. Food was amazing, she offered suggestions and laughed and chatted for a bit. Would definitely go back and would 100% request her to be our girl again!

The pizza we had was really very good. The service was attentive. We enjoyed dining outside on a beautiful Florida evening.

Had a deligtful dining experience. Emily was a fantastic server and the pizza and lemon pasta was exceptional. We have dined here twice and been pleased both times...looking for ward to a return visit.

It was our first time, dining there, and the service,food and ambience, were all better than expected. 

Incredible food but Jenifer our server made the meal memorable. From our wait at the bar to Jenifer serving us table side, she went above and beyond.

As a transplanted New Yorker who has had NY pizza for decades, I’m striving to find the best pizza in Florida…

I ordered their margarita pizza, one of my go-to’s when I try a new pizza place…

The margarita pizza was great!
The crust had the perfect char without sacrificing the perfectly baked dough…

I couldn’t ask for better red sauce or cheese…
It was also the perfect mix of ingredients for a truly tasty lunch…

If you’re ever in downtown St. Petersburg, . This place will be a delightful treat for one of the best margarita pizzas I’ve ever had.

Jennifer is TOP notch! Make sure to ask for her when you arrive at the hostess stand. The environment is so comfortable and welcoming. Come in for a drink or a delicious meal. They serve the closest to Neapolitan pizza that I have had stateside. And my buddy claims the best Bolognese in town.

Seek out Jennifer! You will not be disappointed!

Definitely give it a try—such a cozy spot for delicious wood oven pizza and penne ala vodka!

The restaurant is charming and cozy, service was lovely. The food was only mediocre. It was presented beautifully but lacked any real flavor. My nephew and I ordered the chicken wings for our lunch along with a side ceasare salad. We both brought our wings home because they needed to be cooked more. So tough you couldn't even pull the meat off. The salad had no flavor at all. So, no one felt like there was a need to go back in the future. We did speak with the manager so I hope he does something about that.

First time at Bavaros and it didn't disappoint. Lemoncello pizza and Italian chopped salad were fabulous. Special thanks to John our waiter for the recommendation and outstanding service. Can't wait to go back

Girls weekend did not disappoint with a fabulous dinner at Bavaro's restaurant. Our Server Emily was gracious and informative about the menu items and wine selection. The meatball appetizer reminded us of Sunday dinner with our Italian grandmothers. The homemade pasta was perfectly cooked, and the pizza choices were very unique and flavorful. The portions were very generous, and we were delighted to be able to share and try multiple items without breaking the bank. I highly recommend trying this little Italian gem.
