It had mixed greens, salami, olive, truffle cheese and more. Great antipasto salad could have been a meal in itself. Had to go with a pizza. Campione del Mondo! Champion of the World known for it's "authenticity and originality". Pretty bold statement. Tested them on it. The proof was in the pizza! Sausage, grilled eggplant, basil reduction, topped with had grated ricotta! As advertised this was one of the best, unique pizza's that I've had! Excellent pours of Montepulciano and Pinot Noir went perfectly with the meal. Couldn't resist dessert. We decided to not go with the standards (i.e. cannoli, tiramisu, creme brulee, etc.) and I am so glad that we went with The Ricotta and Pear Cake and the Raspberry Almond Shortbread. Both were amazingly fresh and had the perfect balance of textures and tastes. Accompanying Cafe Americano and Espresso Doppio was excellent. Amazing bar, excellent server (Virginia), great ambiance. I especially am gratefully appreciative that the overhead music was 100% Italian themed which included Dean Martin and Louis Prima songs

But love that the tables have hot oil and red pepper flacks to spice it up a little. Ordered the Creme Brûlée w/Berries. Don't get me wrong it was good but I wish they would put a crunch on the top. That's what makes crème brûlée so delicious! Service this time around was a little lacking. Unfortunately we had a table of 7 so auto tip was already put in the tab. I don't mind that but you should still come around more often. We drank the whole bottle of water before the food came. Waitress never came back around so I couldn't ask for more or she should have just done it. She spent a lot of time talking with other staff as we just waited for something anything to happen. Hope they get that under control but outside of that still a great place to go.

An authentic taste of Italy--right down to Rome This…read moreItalian restaurant is an absolute gem. Every dish we tried was outstanding, starting with a fresh and flavorful caprese salad made with creamy, high-quality mozzarella. The linguine with clams was truly the best we've had--perfectly cooked pasta with tender, local clams and incredible depth of flavor. The pasta Carbonara was exceptional and transported us straight to Rome; rich, authentic, and flawlessly balanced. Chef Luca prepared every dish to perfection, clearly using the freshest ingredients and a true passion for Italian cuisine. What began as a quick tasting turned into a full New Year's lunch celebration once we discovered their impressive selection of Italian beers--each one delicious and thoughtfully curated. The entire experience was amazing, from the food to the atmosphere. Authentic, memorable, and absolutely worth returning for. And if you have a sweet tooth, order Fammi's home made Tiramisu with their decadent chocolate cookie dessert.... delizioso

Located next to where The Hummingbird Jerkhouse used to be, this hidden gem delivers an experience far beyond a great meal. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere stood out. The restaurant was impeccably clean, warm, inviting, and carried the kind of genuine Italian charm that immediately makes you feel welcome. The service was simply exceptional- attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest has a memorable experience. The food was absolutely outstanding. Every dish tasted fresh, authentic, and thoughtfully prepared, showcasing flavors that transported us straight to Italy.

In a city filled with dining options, it's rare to find a place that excels in every category--food, service, atmosphere, and genuine hospitality but this restaurant accomplishes exactly that. Tampa locals who appreciate authentic Italian cuisine owe it to themselves to visit. Whether you're planning a date night, family dinner, or simply craving a truly remarkable meal, this place should be at the top of your list. Hidden gem? Absolutely. Worth the visit? Without question. We'll be back again and again!

It's been a minute since I've had Fazoli's, and the first bite was nostalgic bliss! I ordered three meat tortellini and got chicken instead of Italian sausage. I didn't care for it that way, but the dish was still so good! Warm and gooey cheese pulled on top and so much to eat I brought some home. The kids had fettuccine Alfredo. One with breaded chicken and the other with baked chicken. Both kids scarfed it down so seems like those were equally fabulous! Staff was super friendly. The people behind the counter were helpful and kind. The manager stopped to check on us several times and let us know this fazolli's is one of the only in our area with a location in plant city, Clermont, and Orlando. What a rare treat we have now in Wesley Chapel! You can't go wrong with fast food Italian food! Go get you some.

The crust of their cheese pie is perfect. The sauce is perfect. Not too sweet, not too bitter. The tomatoes really do the talking. I've yet to dine in, but the smell of garlic and pizza cooking greets you on the patio. The inside is compact but people are always dining in and smiling contentedly. Check the menu to find out just how much care goes into selecting the ingredients for their menu. Pizza and pasta might not seem to be the healthiest choices, but they do select quality ingredients and whatever you get, from a slice, to a meatball sub, to a salad, it's always well-presented, delicious, and satisfying.

It's very white and beige like a Miami Beach feel. They no longer have the bright green accents. Their outside is as nice and even more spacious since they took the smaller tables away. They also brought in new chairs to match the inside beige water decor and bring it outside. We also love the outside patio lights at night which they have always had. Our server was bubbly and helpful which was very nice and welcoming. We ordered the Mexican and the Hot and Crunchy Bowl with Chicken and Ahi Tuna Respectively. We made some modifications based on our preferences. Our bowls were very tasty. We love that spaghetti squash is a base option here. These bowls do have upcharges with any protein and the spaghetti squash. That does add up and the bowls end up being more than other places. Two bowls for almost $50 is a lot in my opinion and we just had water. It was still a good bowl and great service.

I love NYC pizza, and always looking for a decent attempt. I came across this place, and thought…read moreI'd give it a try. Lots of places say they're new York style pizza, unless they mean round and has cheese, this is not it. First, I ordered a 5 topping pie, pepperoni, sausage, onions mushrooms and green peppers. The toppings seemed to be canned, the green peppers were soggy and for some reason, they added soggy red peppers. If there was sausage, I couldn't taste it. I agree with my wife's assessment, it was flavorless, especially for a pizza claiming to be New York style. Pizza is pizza, but I've had more flavor from Domino's.

It was truly amazing. I was welcomed in by who I would guess is the owner and I remember him yelling in the back to make sure they had my order right. Let's just say by the time I put the calzone in my car, it didn't survive the ride home. It was delicious and for a medium honestly that's pretty much all you need unless you're splitting it with other people. I've gone back again and pretty much the same thing it was delicious.
