“Great food and atmosphere definitely returning customer“

“This authentic Italian restaurant had been on my list for a while. Chef’s kiss to them showcasing how they make fresh pasta daily, I loved it. My bestie and I came in on a Friday night with no reservation and were promptly seated in the middle of the restaurant. The food, ambience, and service were outstanding. Handsdown one of the best meals of my life. I had the crab tortellini and my friend had the lasagna roll; both items that were on special. The lasagna roll was to die for, it tasted so homey! We also had an incredible apple butter cake with homemade caramel. Just wow! Compliments to the chef/owner and all staff. Everything was just quality! I absolutely cannot wait to come back with my husband to try the short rib agnolotti, the squid ink pasta and others.“

“Review: Casa Cosenza - Oldsmar, FL Casa Cosenza – Oldsmar has become my go-to Italian restaurant, and each visit is nothing short of a culinary journey through the diverse flavors of Italy. From the moment you step through the door, the warm ambiance and friendly staff make you feel like you've been transported to the heart of Italy. The owner is what I call fresh off the boat, and many of his staff reflect the flavor and ambiance you would expect in Italy The menu offers a delightful array of authentic Italian dishes that cater to all tastes, and all the pasta is made in house! Michael Glinter has traveled to 68 countries and 36 states to get the flavor of some amazing foods. His view on reviews is simple – Taste, Presentation, and Service. He believes it's important to tell the reader both a positive and negative unbiased look at the restaurant. Let's take a look and see how Casa Consenza scored in these 3 categories. Taste and Presentation We started with a special appetizer for the night which was a Homemade Tortellini stuff with Italian cheese and white truffle in a white cream sauce. Then for entrees we had Filetto al Barolo a 8oz Filet Mignon in red wine sauce, served with mushrooms, vegetables, and house potatoes, and the night special which was a Branzino filet with mussels and clams topped with a red sauce. The filet was cooked to absolute perfection, the Barolo wine reduction is a symphony of flavors and truly complemented the meat, The presentation was equally impressive, with an artful arrangement that highlighted the dish's elegance and with a side of perfectly cooked mushrooms, zucchini, and potatoes. and a choice of potato accompaniment The Branzino was a true celebration of the sea, a dish that impeccably combines freshness, flavor, and culinary artistry. It was grilled to perfection, showcasing the pristine quality of the fish. Each forkful revealed a subtle sweetness that spoke of the sea, and the expert seasoning allowed the natural flavors to shine. The inclusion of mussels and clams added a dynamic layer to the dish. The shellfish were impeccably cooked, tender and brimming with the essence of the ocean. The savory broth, infused with garlic, white wine, and herbs, was a symphony of complementary flavors that elevated the entire dish to a new level of indulgence. The presentation was a work of art, with the vibrant colors of the seafood and the aromatic broth creating an enticing visual appeal. The dish was accompanied by a medley of seasonal vegetables, adding a refreshing balance to the richness of the seafood. Service What can I say. Max. Dear Max. He was amazing. He exhibited a genuine passion for the cuisine, providing insightful descriptions of each dish and its preparation. His enthusiasm not only enhanced our dining experience but also reflected a true dedication to the art of hospitality. He was constantly attentive to our table, always asking us how things were doing, tasting, and making sure we were well taken care of. I observed him around the restaurant and his passion for people and really creating an amazing guest experience was top notch. The Italian décor, soft lighting, and the piano truly created an intimate atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for a romantic dinner or a celebration with friends and family. In conclusion, Casa Cosenza is a gem among Italian restaurants. The dedication to authenticity, the quality of ingredients, and the overall dining experience make it a must-visit for anyone craving a taste of Italy in the heart of Tampa Bay. Every visit has always been a celebration of the rich culinary heritage that Italy has to offer. Buon Appetito! If you do go to visit and Max is working, tell him “Uncle Mike” sent you there and he will make sure you have an unbelievable experience.“

“Water+flour is an absolute gem! We’ve been coming here for years and recently it’s become our favorite place to eat consistently. Every time we go eat here no matter the time of day we are in awe of the great service and the delicious food. The atmosphere is always so relaxing even when they’re busy it’s enjoyable , adding to the overall experience. We most recently went to celebrate my birthday and our server was Megan she was seriously amazing and made it feel like such a special experience! All of the servers are attentive and we’ve never had a bad experience which is why we continue to come back! They have a great group of people working there and you can see their manager France cares about her employees and the establishment!!“

“The food was great and so was the service.“

“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.“

“Quick and easy child friendly restaurant. Good service too!“

“It’s a small hidden place in an unexpected area, however… the food and the service was excellent! I ordered the chicken piccata and next time I intend to order the chicken Marcella! What a great find!!“

“Was not used to or prepared for the crust. I was educated on what Chicago Pizza truly is by a native LOL it is a very thin crispy crust, but it is not like a New York City where you can pick up a piece of pizza and fold it in your hands. It is very crispy it was still pretty good“

“Went to dinner tonight at this Olive Garden for a date night and had a great experience all around! Food and drinks were excellent. My server, Abby, was very kind, attentive and helpful when it came down to picking out our entrees. Very impressed and service exceeded expectations! 10/10 recommend“

“We have been dinning at Bella's for over 20 years and have enjoyed each visit. We love the atmosphere! The place is usually busy with couples of all ages, groups of friends, 3-4 generations of families dinning together. It's wonderful! The food is always good to very good to great! The service is always good, but the service last night from Justin, our waiter, was exceptional. We'll request Justin the next time we visit Bella's.“

“as a retired Deputy Sheriff in Tampa for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. I would dine at Carrabba's many times. it was also located with my patrol zone area on N. Dale Mabry Hwy. in Tampa.“

“We’ve enjoyed this locally owned, very welcoming, authentic Italian restaurant both during the week as well as on weekends. The owners are friendly and take pride in their restaurant, their staff and their menu. This is also reflected in the wonderful hospitality of their staff. The food is fresh and made to order with a nice variety of pasta, risotto, meat and fish options. If you’re looking for your go to Italian cuisine in the North Tampa (convenient to Carrollwood, Northdale and Citrus Park) area, I highly recommend La Casa Della Pasta.“

“The pizza is phenominal. they put on more toppings than any other pizzeria..“

“We celebrated my dad’s birthday at Forbici, and it’s become our go-to spot for birthday celebrations over the past two years—and it never disappoints! The service is always top-notch, with a professional and friendly staff that makes every visit special. And let’s talk about the food—absolutely incredible. There’s not a dish I’ve tried that I didn’t love. Two of my pickiest eaters couldn’t get enough of the meatballs—tender, flavorful, and perfect every time. The square pizza is a balance of crispy on the outside and soft inside, and the linguini with little neck clams, garlic, white wine, and a hint of lemon is a so good. The burger was a hit for my 9 yr old boy which was not off the kids menu , and the fried calamari? Simply delicious. And we can’t forget about the desserts—let’s just say we pretty much sampled the entire dessert menu, and it was all amazing! If you haven’t been yet to Forbici it is definitely a place you need to check out.“

“just a little upset they didn't have shrimp parm. and they said they couldn't make it because they were to busy“

“An unforgettable experience at Valetino! I don’t even know where to begin—Valetino was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. The atmosphere was charming and elegant, but still felt cozy and welcoming. Now let’s talk about the food—wow. Every single dish we tried wasn’t just delicious; it was meaningful. It truly felt like each plate told a story. The flavors were layered, rich, and thoughtful, like someone had poured their heart into every recipe. You could taste the passion and tradition behind it all. And the service? Beyond exceptional. Daniel and Mateo were phenomenal—attentive, kind, and full of great recommendations. They made the entire experience feel personal and special. It’s rare to find service that makes you feel both like royalty and like family at the same time. We came to Valetino to celebrate our anniversary, and it was the perfect place to do it. From the food to the ambiance to the service—everything about this restaurant made our night unforgettable. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Great food & svs. A little bit pricy for me. Cost more than Tates; Olive Garden Italian Restaurants.“

“Great atmosphere, great food.“

“The apartments are beautiful and the amenities are never ending. But the one thing that stood out is how much the staff cares. As we toured our leasing agent grace was greeted multiple times by residents and you could tell how great the relationship was. Grace was amazing, she had an in depth knowledge of Asher and truly loved the property and making the living experience the best possible. Grace made you feel like you already lived there“

“I want to say thank you for the amazing experience tonight! It has been 3 years since we lived in Tampa. Wife and I knew we needed to go back and saved the best for last, Beccofino. Not only was it just as we remembered, it was better. The small twists in flavor you added to original recipes....perfect. Hospitality is the best you can get in Tampa for a personalized dining. Thank you sir! We will be back!“
