First time trying this spot after hearing great reviews! We…read morelove a good pizza by the slice so my partner and I were excited to try it out, we each ordered 2 slices which were about $4.50, they have a display with all the pizzas right in front making it easier to decide which slice to get! We both liked our first slice a lot (lasagna and pepperoni/sausage) but didn't care quite as much for our chicken slices, the buffalo chicken looked divine and we would both get that one instead next time! The slices came out hot, had a great crust and were super flavorful, we loved the addition of Parmesan and crushed peppers at each table and while we didn't order any the buffalo wings smelled sooo good! We will absolutely return!

Besides that, the pies are always on point. The slices that are in the window ready to go, always deliver. This place takes the crown. I was first introduced via a friend after a day on the lake (terrified of water sports so this made it worth it) preordered on the phone, everything was ready when I showed up and it was an in and out operation 10/10. My go to's BBQ chicken, Pep and the chicken Vodka. The verity and depth of their bag at Santoro's is crazy. They don't miss. I have brought so many people here for the taste, quality and easy of access. I was here before Dave Portnoy and I have lived through the hectic times after Dave (A.D. - after Dave) and they still show up week in and week out. Thanks for holding it down for so many years. You all are the best. They even have a fun tiktok account. One stop shop, heck yeah.

This is a pizza take-out place only. Salads and sandwiches are not good and are so expensive. You…read moredon't get what you paid for. The worst is the restaurant is hot A/C not working. Flies everywhere. They need to adjust prices and work on the restaurant part.

This is just an update from my review of last night. I had…read morethe leftover pizza for dinner tonight ( and... ok I admit I also had a small piece for breakfast /cold) But what I reheated tonight just blew me away. I don't know how it's possible but I think it may have even been better the second day. Trust me when I say ... I eat more pizza than almost anyone. I've been to hundreds and hundreds of pizza shops all over the world including Italy. I also have been making pizza at home for the past 10 years. This pizza is it !

Went in with high hopes given the 4.5 rating, but unfortunately this visit fell short…read more Service was a real issue -- our waitress took our order and then seemed to disappear for the rest of the night. No drink refills, and we had to flag someone down just to get our check and to-go boxes. We started with a Caesar salad after finding out the octopus carpaccio (which we were excited to try) had run out -- the salad was fine but pretty unremarkable. We also ordered the Montecristo pizza with burrata, which looked great in theory, but the burrata was not evenly distributed -- piled onto one side, leaving the rest of the pizza bare. The crust itself was floppy with no real flavor -- no standout sauce or seasoning. Honestly, I think I could make a better pie at home on my Gozney. Our friends weren't impressed either -- the lasagna was underwhelming, and the cheese pizza they ordered (with a request for extra cheese) came out with no extra cheese at all. Disappointing overall, especially given the price point and the reviews. Might try again someday to see if it was an off night, but not in a rush to go back.

We were in the area for an appointment and decided to stop by Bavaro's for dinner before the rush…read more We had tried coming here before without a reservation, but it was super packed since it's a smaller restaurant so we were excited to finally get to try it! This time we went earlier and there was only one other couple there so we were seated right away. We ordered a pizza, oysters, and the lemon pasta, and everything was SO delicious. The food came out quickly and the service was very attentive without being overbearing. I also really loved the vibe here. It's cozy and intimate which makes it feel like a great spot for a date night or a nice dinner. We'll definitely be coming back the next time we're in the area!

We stopped here on a whim while walking in Downtown and loved the outdoor seating (one of the few…read morein downtown Tampa). The food is very good and super large portions. We easily will split an entree next time. The tagliatelle al limone was delicious - very light, the flavor was good and I was also a big fan of the broccolini. My boyfriend got the Penne Alla Vodka and added a chicken cutlet (which $15 to add a chicken cutlet is actually insane). The pasta could've used more sauce in both of our opinions. The service was a little on the slower side, which we wouldn't mind as much if the gnats outside weren't eating us alive. They have fans, but the one table we sat at was where the fan didn't reach. So this is definitely a reservation-indoor seating spot for us next time unless they add another outdoor fan. This dampened our experience a bit, especially because we were excited about the outdoor seating.

Our neighbors told us Lee's Grocery has good wings, so figured we'd give them a try for National…read moreWing Day! The wings come in orders of 10. You can order all flats for an extra $2.50 and split your order between two sauces. We did half with the weekly special "Hell Wings" sauce and half BBQ. Both were excellent. Nice char, flavorful, and cooked until the meat was falling off the bone. The pizza was just pizza. Service was friendly and efficient. It's a great neighborhood spot with a surprisingly good selection of takeout beers. They serve Coke products by the can. The inside is fairly small, but there's a large outdoor patio that's dog friendly. We'll be back for the wings.

Very well seasoned and definitely a highlight. The arancini was also really unique and tasty, especially with that delicious sauce. We ordered the Pasta Brava which was great, but I personally found it had a bit too many peas for my liking. The Trattoria Chicken Parmesan could've used a little more sauce but it qas SO GOOD! And for the kids, the chicken in their meal was a bit under-seasoned. Overall everything was really good and great portions! I didn't get a pic of the espresso martini, but trust me, it was so good!

Great place to grab a quick bite…read more We were at the children's museum and got hungry so we decided to walk the short block to grab a bite here. It was at around 11:30 on a Tuesday, and we were the only ones here when we first arrived. Later a ton of people started coming, so I think we just beat the rush. I'm glad that more people showed up, because this is a great spot. Service was really attentive and she checked in on us a good amount of time. Future Christina, your older son will eat the garlic knots, which were actually delicious. It says they are homemade and I also could not stop eating one, and I generally avoid carbs. He did not eat a lot of of the pepperoni pizza he wanted, they do not have a kids menu, but if you ask, there are things they can make kid sizes like the pasta. The personal pizza is the smallest they go. I got eight wings with a side of fries, because my son also wanted fries. He did eat a good amount of the fries, so next time I think I would just get him garlic knots and fries. I'm on a high protein diet, so the wings were great. I got the garlic Parmesan sauce on the side and a side of blue cheese. The garlic Parmesan was OK, but the blue cheese was delicious, I would definitely get it again. My dad got a pepperoni pizza and said it was quite crispy, he liked it. Overall, I enjoyed our meal here and I would definitely come back.

When we arrived on Thursday night for dinner before Tampa Theatre, we were not dissuaded when we…read morediscovered they had no AC. It was a pleasant night to sit outside at one of their tables: not too hot outside, with a cool breeze. It had to be really hot in the kitchen. We felt bad for the cooks! While sitting outside we enjoyed our meal. Our waitress was good, and I'm sad that I don't recall her name. Husband got a burger, and asked for cheese, but didn't get it. Our waitress offered to take it back. He said no. But maybe he should have sent it back. He said it lacked juiciness and wasn't flavorful. Maybe the cheese would have helped the flavor. I ordered the Big Boy Grilled Cheese with bacon and pear slices. It came with arugula salad and ranch. I enjoyed it all. I will definitely get this again. It had a lot of cheese! We've been here many times, and we will return. For Husband, he'll get the pizza next time. It's ALWAYS good!
