The Brother Trattoria Reviews
Great Place! Highly Recommend
This is a fantastic Italian restaurant in south Tampa! I loved the ambience of this place. The calamari is some the best I’ve had! The owners are a great young couple that make you feel like family. Ashton, the wife, recommended the ravioli, I’m glad she did, it was amazing!
I’ll be back to try the Rigatoni Della Casa, her other favorite!
A fresh take on classic Italian! Delicious wood fired pizza, scratch made pasta, and a great bar with awesome happy hour specials - BOGO drink specials in South Tampa?!?!?! Just the kind of place we love!

The Brother Trattoria offers a rustic dining experience with a cozy bar. The menu features a variety of Italian dishes, including pappardelle bolognese, gnocchi bolognese, pizza with sausage and bell peppers, and lobster ravioli. While some guests have enjoyed their meals, others have noted issues with the quality of the food, including overcooked pasta and temperature concerns. However, many recent diners have praised the attentive service, with some servers being quick and efficient, while others may need multiple requests for basic needs. Guests appreciated the hospitality, especially when they were accommodated in a private corner. The bread served was well-received, though some suggested improvements for the oil and herb spread. The pizza, particularly the cheese pizza with Roni, reminded diners of authentic Italian flavors, with perfectly charred dough from the wood oven. Despite some criticisms of the beer selection and occasional food inconsistencies, the restaurant has garnered a loyal following and is recommended for those willing to try their Italian offerings.
