EXCEPTIONAL!!!! All around outstanding in every way possible. No wonder this place was voted the best Italian Cuisine in Tampa! I would say, “The BEST Italian Cuisine.” …… of anywhere! Upon entering, we could smell the fresh basil from the sidewalk! We ordered the Calamari Fritti for an appetizer.
It always looks busy and lively when I walk by, so I tried it for the first time tonight. It didn’t disappoint. I sat at the bar and immediately people seated next to me engaged in pleasant convo. The male servers were smartly dressed in white shirts and narrow black ties, and were a cut above mo
Such a fun, lively restaurant with the most delicious Italian dishes in Tampa!! We love the presence of the owner Paolo and his kind, welcoming heart to everyone! They offer incredible wine options and the dishes always come out to perfection (even when we request something not on menu). They are al
Food was pretty good . Busy family style restaurant , the patrons seemed like regulars and knew ea other. Reminded me of a place I used to go back in queens. No one else in my party particularly liked their meals. I thought grouper special was good. It was a busy Friday night and they probably could
We ordered three apps, the grouper & lobster special, and desserts. I can highly recommend salmone affumicato and the portobello Al balsamico. We found the lemonchello cake to be the best in Tampa Bay compared to equivalent Italian restaurants ($$). The atmosphere was good. It was fun meeting the ma
Paulo did a great renovation and the bar are is perfect for a great night. Owner always on site
Fabulous dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Wine, great appetizers, amazing dinners and scrumptious desserts.
Great Italian food. Just a little tight seating. But I will definitely be back.
We were greeted and welcomed by such friendly people. We had Christmas Eve Eve dinner here last night and loved everything about the experience. We walked right in and they were able to seat us without a reservation at a high top. It’s such a cozy place so every place you have the same comfortable e
Have never had a bad meal here. Wonderful little gem that consistently serves great food. The menu is available online. Usually, it fills up pretty quickly. But there is a bar to grab a drink. Also have specials regularly.
Lovely little Italian restaurant in South Tampa...we'll definitely be coming back again. With reservations for 5, we were seated immediately and service was very nice. Water poured and bread served as we sat down. The wine was lovely (Sangiovese) and the food was fabulous...not a bite left behind. T
Had an incredible meal and 1st time experience here. Went there for my birthday. Elaine at the bar made sure I had a memorable time with my friend, Tombow! The best lobster ravioli I have ever had. The sea bass was equally delicious....and gotta admit .....I heard their birthday celebrations throug
This place is kind of a hidden gem. Excellent food, service, atmosphere was expecting of this type of restaurant. Sat at the bar, ate dinner and had a few drinks. Nice selection at the bar. Even two types of Knob Creek. Bartender Eileen was great, even though she was very busy. Had to try the tirami
Hands down the best lasagna I’ve ever had! Food is amazing!
Celebrated my birthday last night with a large group of family and friends and the service and the food was spectacular! Amazing ambiance!

A hit for a little neighborhood joint. Would have preferred the drink menu to have been a big larger and a recommendation. Nevertheless, I enjoyed my penne putanesca and would have it again any day. Husband enjoyed his clam linguini. Osso buco was a hit at the table as well. We were pleased and woul
