The servers are very knowledgeable, and after two visits, the food has been great! Inside they've got maybe a little bit more decorating to do but still a very relaxing place to have some pizza. But where they exceed are the facts that if you look at their menu, they tell you what meats are coming from the local farms in the area. They have items with homemade pasta. I was definitely not expecting homemade pasta and local farm raised meats and veggies. That honestly blew me away a little bit. Another super cool thing in my opinion anyways, is that you can actually do half-and-half specialty pizzas. A lot of places will not do that. I love it, you get to try so much more! The balsamic eggplant pizza was phenomenal as was the meatball Parm. The sausage pesto was excellent. I'm not so much of a chicken person on pizza, but the chicken prosciutto with balsamic was still a good pizza. I personally am just not a huge fan of small diced up chicken. Balsamic eggplant appetizer was also a big winner. Oh, and I did not mention that they also make their own mozzarella, which you can sub on your pizza and some of the pizzas already have it on there. That balsamic eggplant has the fresh mozzarella on there and it was probably my favorite ..... IDK between that and the meatball Parm pizza. Anyways, the main point being you will not be disappointed! I always wanna try fresh meat pasta, but I can't get past those pizzas! I'll add that the week before we went and Tried Madison Ave Pizza, which has been all over the socials, I had such high expectations. It was good, don't get me wrong, but three brothers spanked what I got from Madison Avenue, then flip them over and spanked them again!

I went for weekend brunch and they offer bottomless mimosas and sangria (red and white). A heads-up: the sangria came straight from the bottle without the usual fruit you'd expect. Not my favorite take on it, but the vibe and service made up for it. Staff were super friendly and attentive, which really added to the experience. The food? Tough decision between the avocado toast breakfast and the breakfast pizza--but the pizza won. Solid choice! I got mine with sausage (you can also choose bacon or veggies). Extra veggies are $1.75 each, and I added mushrooms and spinach. Worth it. Oh, and they've got a brick pizza oven, which is always a bonus. Fun detail: their pizza/calzone topping menu has a cheeky note that says "No pineapple--don't ask!" with emojis. Gotta love a place with a sense of humor. Highly recommend checking this place out. I'll definitely be back--especially for pizza and a cold beer during a Lightning game.

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.

I am a glutton for new things, new places and new adventures so off I went to find Joey's to the seldom driven far reaches of Gunn Hwy west. Past Van Dyke, past Lake Fern and coming to a rest near Ashley Lakes where urban development has spread its tendrils. Shock and Awe. As I entered a warm and fuzzy perception of exitement and recognition swelled in me. A small but concentrated area with authentic Italian products and "atmosfera italiana". From the nostalgic Big Apple crooners singing the italian-american classics, to the colorful displays, legitimate italian products, geniune italian butcher choices to fridges full of bona-fide pre-prepared italian food products the stank of authenticity permeated. The deli/meat area was packed with delectable choices and fresh assortments that any italian would be proud to put on his table. Even things like pre-wrapped bracciole (beef & pork), veal cutlets, homemade italian sausage, steaks and all the standards. I even took home some Korean BBQ Baby Back Ribs After my long and detailed perusal my attention my attention was drawn to the slender aisle leading to the other side of the store and what I thought would be shelfs of canned, bottled and dry package products. But behold, it was a small dining area with a wide variety of pizza by the slice or whole, sandwiches, hero's, salads and pasta's. A cornacopia of foods, all the italian masterpieces that the American-Italian community has to offer, and the place was packed with eager diners. I bought 4 slices for the road and was tempted to try other things but I already had nearly a $100 in products. Fresh Pecorino Romano to grate for my Carbonara, a gorgeous piece of guanciale, regular and hot italian sausage, the ribs and a package of spaghetti from Italy. The pizza was superb, different from any other in town, complex, delicious, thin crust with a proper char. The Korean ribs were excellent, a hint of spicy heat with an umami bbq sauce. Buying a whole pizza next time, plus I am already excited about returning. As soon as I finish makung my Carbonara and try the italian sausage, I will return for the beef bracciloe, some veal and some of the premade sauces. There is not a lot that gets me ranting these days, so when I tell you this place is amazing, you can take that to the bank. COME GET YA SOME!!

I Love that the staff can have fun working together, but I come here on my short lunch break to get food and I've had to leave twice now due to untimely service.... Not due to being busy. Further more, I've asked staff questions about their menu items and I watched them clarify with other staff members ..... yet the order received was still wrong and nothing like they described. On 2 occasions now, I have returned orders due to being heavily burnt or stale.... Yet still served to a paying customer.... This is extremely frustrating as I don't think or feel the need to check an order from a reputable establishment.... Only to get back to the office and have it be brunt/stale/wrong. These are not isolated incidents; it has happened multiple times..... enough times now to write a review. I want to be the bigger person here and take my business elsewhere, but I love the idea of an Italian market and good Italian-American food. This place has potential, but I work too hard to pay for bad, burnt, stale, or incorrect food.

My family and I have been coming to Nabruzzi since they first opened. I even worked there briefly…read morewhen the restaurant originally opened, so this place has always meant something to us. Back in October, I made a reservation for 20 people for a January dinner to celebrate my dad's birthday. I had heard the week before that Max sold the restaurant, but at that point it was too late to find another place that could accommodate such a large group. Our reservation was at 4:00 pm. When I walked in at 4:03 with my son, there was a man standing by the pizza oven on his cell phone. I initially thought he was a customer waiting for food since there was no acknowledgment at all. After a few minutes, a couple of cooks walked out, looked at us, and said nothing. The man continued texting and then, very coldly, asked, "How can I help you?" I told him I was there for the party of 20, and he responded, "They're in the back," with no warmth or professionalism. As someone who worked in the restaurant industry for over a decade, I was honestly shocked by the greeting. Once seated, I informed our server that both my brother and I have celiac disease and that eating gluten-free is a serious medical necessity. Normally, servers acknowledge this and reassure guests that they'll speak with the kitchen. Instead, she said nothing and walked away while I was still speaking. The appetizers were fine, but the main courses were extremely disappointing. I ordered the gluten-free veal marsala, a dish I've had countless times at Nabruzzi over the years. This was easily one of the worst versions I've ever had...completely bland, with large chunks of garlic instead of properly minced, and so unappetizing I couldn't finish it. My husband ordered the pollo florentine and described it as something our four-year-old could have made. The presentation was equally poor; the food looked like it had simply been thrown onto the plates. The server never once checked on us after the food was delivered, which should happen within the first few bites. I also brought a birthday cake for my dad, and it was served before all the dinner plates were cleared. As we were leaving, the owner simply said, "Have a good one." It's clear that the new owner has little to no experience in the restaurant or service industry, which is incredibly disappointing. Nabruzzi was once a warm, friendly Italian restaurant and a hidden gem in Lutz...a place our family truly loved and visited often because it felt welcoming and close to home. Sadly, after this experience, we will not be returning.

There is a covered patio for when the weather is behaving like Florida, and open tables with umbrellas for when the weather is nice. There is a wide variety of offerings on the menu, including a giant Greek salad, big enough for your family. We have driven past this for years, assuming that it was connected to a convenience store and realized today that the entire building is dedicated to the restaurant. The only drawback is that there is no indoor dining, so pay attention to the weather before you go. I imagine this is very popular with the locals who live in the near vicinity. We did not save room for ice cream, but we hear that that is definitely worth a stop.
