After searching for vegan pizza options in St Pete decided on Jay Luigi. So happy with our choice! Husband really enjoyed the pizza with added Impossible meatball. My son had the romano square pizza and Caesar salad. He really liked their take on the Caesar. I had the pasta with Impossible meatball (vegan). The meatball was delicious, very moist and flavorful We will definitely be back!

We arrived less than an hour to closing … and the service was exceptional!!
The Lemon arancini was unique and delicious! The Meatballs were super moist and tasty. The Carbonara pasta exquisite - add a bottle of Chianti with a Limecello cake on the house - a night to remember!! Let’s not forget the pizza !!! Omg !!! Highly recommend!

The WORST “Carbonara” I’ve ever had in my life. Literally. --- This was a truly disappointing experience. I ordered the carbonara, and it was the worst I’ve ever had. The bucatini was overcooked, far from al dente, and the “sauce” was “snotty” with improperly cooked eggs. The pork as well wasn’t seared properly and was too chewy. This was unappetizing and completely missed the mark on how a carbonara should look and taste.
To make matters worse, about 30 minutes after eating, I got food poisoning, which I suspect was from the sauce as I hadn’t eaten anything else prior, and the symptoms hit fast, forcing me to constantly visit the toilet multiple times when I got home for about 1 hour.
I didn’t mention anything during the dining because this was a special occasion that we were celebrating all together - - I could not risk ruining the mood.
On the positive side, I sampled my friends’ dishes, and theirs were decent. The service was okay since it’s counter-style ordering, and the food is brought to your table.
However, the poor quality of the carbonara and the food poisoning made this visit unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. I wouldn’t recommend Jay Luigi’s “Carbonara” based on this experience but their other food tasted good, though the portion received for the price paid for other dishes still leave more to be desired.
Attached to this review is the “Carbonara” served along with a Google Image of how the Carbonara cream is supposed to look.

I enjoy sitting down with a glass of wine and browsing the menu. Not here. You stand in line , quickly glance at the menu, pay, asked how much you you want to tip ( haven’t even had service) then sit down. It was very noisy. Food was mediocre. Was happy to leave!!
Limoncello pasta with shrimp was amazing. The dining style is a little different you order at the counter but then sit down with full service after. The food comes out fast and it was all so good. Can’t wait to come back.

Too expensive for what you get. Food was pretty good, but portions were small. No sides, no service. Carrabba's is just as good regarding food, but you get much more for your money and the atmosphere is more fun. I was very annoyed they asked for tip when I ordered, not realizing there is NO service other than dropping off your plate. IF I ever go back, I will NOT tip other than a dollar or two tops. Kinda feel ripped off by the entire experience.
Hands down favorite restaurant to order dine in, pick up or delivery from. The meals are consistently delicious, orders always complete and have everything I need. Not an easy thing to accomplish - thank you guys for being so awesome!

Great lunch, atmosphere and crew. Hard to choose what we liked the best…. Pizza or Pasta! Had a party of 6 and sat outside. It was bright so the very kind manager put the awning out and it was a delightful lunch. Will be back when I am in St Petersburg.

This is a regular to-go and dine-in spot for me. Every single time they are rock solid. They are very accommodating of my family with little ones when we dine in and menu is friendly for all types of food restrictions. Food, portions, and service are all consistently excellent.
