31 Best Italian Restaurants in St. Petersburg

“Great menu, drinks, atmosphere, service, music 10 or of 10. Please open one in Trinity. We have a severe imbalance of restaurants per capita and demand is there. Home run guaranteed!“

“Pasghetti catered our large family meal last Sunday. We could not be happier about them. Very good food, timely delivered (and still warm), reasonably priced, and dealing with the staff was a pleasure.“

“Finally made it there last night for our party of four and I can’t say enough. The restaurant is beautiful inside the service was fantastic and the food was absolutely incredible. I really think this place just knocked off my favorite Italian restaurant in Saint Pete. Highly recommend it“

“food is excellent. I don't even know where to begin, the garlic knots I can't stop buying them every few days I just have to have them in the house I have them when I have a salad or if I'm in a hurry and I have a microwave dinner it turns it into a real meal. the pizza is the greatest in the entire County and the meatball sub I can't get enough of them. I'm so glad they reopened. they were previously in Rutland Plaza for like 30 years. so happy I can finally get a good pizza again. actually everything's really really good but I always seem to order the pizza ,garlic knots and meatballs sub. my mom loves the Italian sub, the bread is good.“

“The best pizza we’ve ever had! Warm and friendly staff, great service. Can’t beat it!“

“I went to eat here for the first time today with friends I used to work with. We heard that the owner used to work at Italia Mia which is now closed and now own this restaurant. We always had a salad and pizza there so we ordered the same thing here. The sausage, pepperoni and mushroom pizza was absolutely delicious. The thin crust was incredible!! Nice ambience also.“

“Oh. My. God.“

“Absolutely love this place ! Food is always on point, delicious, and carefully crafted.“

“Simply Exquisite. A true culinary experience .“

“Novu Bistro serves delicious food and beverages. The waitresses are friendly and engaging. We didn’t wait long for anything and we were a large group. The owners, Tony and Kat, are gracious and hospitable! I loved that the music was low for great conversations! I highly recommend this St. Pete gem!!“

“We had a 75th birthday party on a Sat. Night. The owners and staff were helpful, courteous, caring, and the food, drink and dessert were as always excellent. We have been going there since they opened and we have always felt welcomed and treated like family. A very Italian feeling Taverna. One of our favorite in St Pete. Thank you for your help in making our celebration so special.“

“Great! We will be back the next time we are in St. Pete. The restaurant started things off on the right foot by graciously accommodating us early when our plans changed. Bailey, our server was perfect. Attentive, prompt, friendly, and helpful. The food was fantastic. I'm not sure which I liked best, eating the Cavatelli Bada Bing or watching it being prepared at the table. Seriously, the food is great.“

“Makati, PH -- Had the Arrabbiata with polpettes and honestly, I was not ready for how big the serving was—sulit na sulit. Flavor? On point. Super fresh, super authentic, no need to overthink. It’s one of those meals where you take a bite and you’re like, “Yup. This is it.” But what made it even better? I got to chat with the CEO and the manager. Like, actual real convo—not just small talk. They were so chill, super welcoming, and you can tell they really care about what they do and who walks through their doors. It’s rare to find spots that are both quality and personal. This one? Definitely worth coming back for.“

“Highly recommend this pizza shop, Stefano the manager was very helpful regarding an order that never came in the system during closing time but still made the order and were happy to do it. Very happy with their willingness to take care of the customer even if it was past their closing time.“

“Passed this place for too long. Ordered an 18 inch pepperoni. Price was great. Pizza was even better! Delivery was fast. Very good. Thanks 4th St. Pizza!“

“Amazing dinner tonight! We loved everything we had! Amazing menu with so many options. Such fresh ingredients! We had the white pizza, chicken Parmesan, spaghetti and meatballs, pepperoni/meatball Stromboli, mozzarella sticks, knots and medium wings! Can't wait to come back and try more things!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“I always enjoy my evening at Frankie’s. The Beef Wellington is the best I’ve ever had. Great food & excellent service!!“

“The manager Michelle is absolutely amazing, she is there ever day almost all day, whom ever the owner is I hope they pays her well and takes good care of her. She deals with some wild customers but she always is so kind, my food is always hot and good. Michelle is the best, the other girl named Meika is amazing customer service , so sweet and kind and always ready to help. She's always helpful to the manager and smiles when you come in. Love this location“

“Food was excellent Service was great.“

“Love this place, fantastic pizza and absolutely great customer service.“

“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!“

“After landing late at Tampa I was hungry and noticed this place at the side of the road.

Guy behind the counter was polite and took my order quickly. Pizza was fast, only had to wait around ten minutes!

As for the pizza… it slaps hard! Just what I expected, no nonsense American style pizza, full of flavour, loads of topping… what’s not to like!

If I am passing by in Tampa and I am hungry I will certainly buy food again.“

“The Chateaubriand is unbelieveably delicious.“

“We always order 2 of the cheesy Howie Breads and 1 of the Chicken Caesar Salads there but with the Greek dressing. It fills us both up, and it is such a delicious combination. Not all of the Hungry Howie stores have the Caesar Salad, and the Howie Bread is different from store to store. But this store definitely has and makes both really well.“

“best environment ever amazing place to work I have not had job like this where I can be myself and have courage that my crew family has made me a better person. Christina is amazing boss and loving ❤ friend I'm so happy I am apart of her family. love this place hands down.!!!!!!“

“Pizza has always been great for the many years we've been getting it. I'm not sure if the owner is the one that has gone to a call center but it totally takes away from the family owned pizza joint. Won't order again and it's very sad.“

“Tried the baked ziti and Caesar salad combo a couple weeks ago. The salad was drenched in Caesar dressing, but the flavor was good. Just way too much dressing. The baked ziti was served to me from behind the window but not heated. So it was cold and it had a very vinegary flavor which I didn’t like (maybe they add Italian dressing?). I also didn’t see any ricotta in the baked ziti. It was just ziti noodles, sauce and mozzarella. Wouldn’t get again. But they are new so I’ll give them another chance eventually. They were friendly so the service was good!“

“Great Thin crust pizza and the sauce is really good. Fresh ingredients, limited menu during the pandemic, so we will be back to check out more of the menu when things are back to normal. Desert was good, we had a delicious canoli to go... service was great. Totally Chicago style atmosphere, crispy thin crust pizza.“

“I've been in this restaurant at 1am and the atmosphere was good.I noticed that everybody was having a good time And this place is known for its pizza. I went there in the A. M and the breakfast were good as well. The next time I visit Saint Petersburg, I'm definitely stopping by angelo's“

“I have a large office and have ordered from here a few times now and Taverris does a wonderfull job preparring our pizza and getting it to us nice and hot and on time will keep ordering this is our new favorite place for pizza and wings“
