Osteria Bar & Kitchen

Had brunch there for my cousins bday! Great service, food was 7/10. I had the shrimp and grits. Wasn’t to fund of the grit cakes but the shrimps was delicious! My cousin had chicken and waffles. Id probably be back for the service and the music unless they turn the grit cakes into some nice creamy grits! Everyone loves grits!!! And The mimosa’s are stronger than the actual cocktails. It’s a vibe tho! Thank You!!

This was my first time here for my friend birthday and we had a great time. We were there from 11:30 to 4:30 so you know the vibe had to be right! You do need reservations but we had the option to sit at the bar. That is where we had the best time at! The DJ was playing all the right music for the day time brunch vibes! The drinks from Nigelllllll was great! Food was amazing and had all the flavors! I had apple pie French toast and my friend had Cajun pasta with shrimp and chicken and it was so many great flavors in both dishes. Definitely will be back for another experience! Parking is street parking with meters

Need to call ahead for seating or you may not get a table. Thought the bar you are free to seat it without reservation. Food was great, very flavorful. Not too many options on menu. The atmosphere was very lively when I went there was a DJ. Customer service from the bartenders could’ve been better. There’re doing a lot at once. I got breakfast tacos w/ steak it was great! Would definitely go back!

I tried Bello Bar and Kitchen for the first time last night. The servers and service were great! The vibe is definitely a VIBE. The music was on point, and everyone was enjoying themselves. I ordered the Rasta Pasta, the Truffle Fries, and my friend ordered the Seafood Mac and Cheese. The rasta pasta, in my opinion, was bland, full of allspice, and had no spiciness at all. The truffles fries were great, and the aioli that's paired with it takes the fries to the next level. The fries were better than the pasta. The seafood mac and cheese was amazing! It was perfectly seasoned from the shrimp to the pasta sauce. I do not like that a 20% gratuity is automatically added to every tab, and I do not like that they charge a few to use card instead of cash. Stuff like that makes me not want to return. I will say Rafael came out and definitely tried to accommodate me for the rasta pasta, but my card was already charged, and we were ready to go. He was super nice and showed a lot of concern, which tells me he's serious about customer satisfaction. He told me to let him know when I'm back and he'll take care of everything.

Last night I placed an order for pick up. I could barely hear because of the background noise and asked if the young woman could repeat herself. At that point it became very distasteful customer service. The person was rude and extremely unprofessional. A complaint was made to management and it seemed the manager was not capable of properly instructing his employee because he said absolutely nothing. Ordering food should never become hostile. No one is forced into these positions. Aside from that, the food is always top tier.

Went for the Brunch definitely got there too early because the DJ comes at 12 and it started picking up right around that time. The music was a good mix of reggae, rnb and rap. Definitely loved the vibe and flow of the restaurant. Would definitely go back there. The pizza looked amazing so next time I would definitely get that. Bello would see me again ... Check them out !!!!

Bello is my personal favorite Italian Restaurant in Downtown Tampa! Only 5 minutes from Curtis Hixon Park / The Riverwalk & right off the 275. The prefect location to grab a quick bite to eat during Happy Hour or plan a dinner experience with your friends! No matter the time of day you go the vibes are always great! They even put A/C Units outside for those hot Florida days! As per the food, it’s absolutely amazing!! Beyond flavorful & colorful plates or generous food portions! Most plates can be perfectly paired with a drink to compliment it! The staff is very educated on the menu & will bend over backwards to make sure you have a great dining experience! Cool Features: I noticed the Free Shuttle from The Barrymore Hotel goes here as well! The giant brick oven really makes amazing pizza’s! I will definitely be eating here again soon!

This is our first time in Tampa and I found this place on Google. What a Gem! Our waiter Alan was very attentive. The food was super delicious! The manager even came to our table and introduced himself to us. He's from Brooklyn! The whole vibe was so chill and the music had us jamming out. Every song had us singing. I had a wonderful experience! We are here for 4 days and my husband and I are definitely going back again before we leave. The waiter told us about local attractions and activities. The manager told us about the lounge across the street where it just so happens that one of my husband's favorite rappers will be at tonight. We had the bruschetta as a starter and it was amazing! It had these little tiny balls of balsamic that looked like caviar; so cute. We had a frozen mix drink they have pre made there already. One was a pink Rosé and the other was a bacardi límon mix. Delicious! My husband had the chicken Parm and it was cooked to perfection. I had the cheese tortellini with short rib in it. I've never had it like that before and it was superb 👌🏽. My compliments to the chef. The staff was attentive and we really enjoyed ourselves. It's my 43rd birthday weekend and we had a cheesecake for dessert and the chef wrote Happy Birthday on it. I loved it! I had a very nice time and enjoyed every single bite of my meal. We ended up taking the left overs with us. The portions are filling and well worth the money. This establishment is run very well and for that I give them 5 stars and highly recommend them if you're in the downtown Tampa area. Thank you for the wonderful dining experience Bello Bar!

Sooo Bello Bar & Kitchen was a solo date night for me and a good one. I sat outside on the patio which was still a vibe. They had good music playing and good food. My waiter was very nice and helpful. Well, pretty much all the staff I encountered were nice. The pizza came out large and I finished the entire pie. lol, The inside has pretty lights and decor with some positive references near the bathrooms. A nice spot for friends or a date night. I'll have to take my friends here for a good time. What was ordered: Margarita Pizza + Bacon Margarita Pizza + Bacon = Get in my belly
