    Can we talk about the cheese room? it's one of the largest in Florida and also my favorite place…read moreever! They have over 300 artisanal, imported and domestic cheeses, I find something new every time I go! The ambiance is what makes it special to locals, it feels like stepping into a traditional Italian market and it's hard to find elsewhere in Tampa. Definitely a staple for St. Pete! The market is almost always busy, so go right when they open or later in the afternoon on weekdays or you'll be standing shoulder to shoulder and wait 15 to 30 minutes, but honestly that time is perfect for browsing everything! My go to orders are the Mortadella Pistachio and the Fig & Pig. They are $12 each, and yes a bit pricey but the freshness and quality make it worth it.

    Wow! What a fun place to check out. There's ample parking. A lot of photo ops outside, some picnic…read moretables. So much bustle. So many people. You walk in and Theres a check out area. A fresh produce, meat, fish, sausage, pickled olives, section. You walk further down and Theres the grab and go food section. Then to the left you have wine and cheese. You go further in, and Theres a fancy cheese section. Unfortunately they don't give small amounts of cheeses and cut it for you. But you can buy some really good cheeses here. Then you go back to the very narrow hallway, and Theres a ton of coffee on the left. I just got into coffee and am a coffee snob. I noticed there was a "greasy" looking bean. Which just means it's well past its freshness. The price of bean actually isnt that bad. And they offer a lot of varieties. Anyway...We got two kinds, Guatemala and organic Mexico. I wanted to try it out before writing this review. The Guatemala one was light, faint. Which tells me the bean is stale. No longer fresh. The Mexico was a deeper flavor but also on its way out. I would recommend to management to better advertise the coffee bean so the product moves and stays fresh, or maybe move it to a different section where people can feel comfortable getting it. It gets so crowded in the hallway. I would leave the hallway was a grab and go area. Or, I would sell what you have at inventory and limit the options to the top sellers. You keep walking down and you have the coffee shop to the right, and a small bread stand to the left. Of course we got coffee. Theres a small area of seating to get coffee for there. Theres a big roaster to give the appearance that they roast their own coffee but I believe it's just for decoration. Fiancé got a cappuccino. It was okay. He normally doesn't get coffee with too much milk but the waitress said there was 3 shots of espresso in there. I would say it didn't taste like 3 shots. It taste like coffee with 90% milk. And it should be told to customers that a cappuccino there is more milk with coffee. I got the con panno. Which is espresso with whipped cream. I'm not sure if the whip cream they use is fresh, or if it's super sweetened, but my coffee was sweet. It was thick which I like but I didn't like whatever sweetener they used. But I'd probably order a macchiato if I ever came back so I could taste the coffee. On the other side of the coffee shop is the sandwiches and prepared food that you order. Sandwiches are HUGE. Fiancé had the #1 with all the fixings. It was nice but if you don't like soggy sandwiches, you can ask for no veggies. Which we would do next time. I had the 7, no sun-dried tomatoes and no veggies. It was so good. The mozzerella was very fresh! If you walk past that you have the dried cured meat, and down a hallway to the right you'll find dried pasta and fresh pasta. The fresh pasta looked so good. I wished we lived in the area so I could try. You head back the other way and pass the outdoor seating and Theres also a place for you to check out you grocery/sandwiches. Right next to that section you have the pantry area of canned fish, pickled things, olive oil. Then Theres the bread and pastry area. We only had time to see these and no time to see what other stores they had or walk around. But I'd definitely come back to check those out.

    5 Stars for an Italian spot that hits the mark with every dish and every pizza! Pro-tip: get the…read moreLuca Salad and Tiramisu. You'll thank me! We were a group of 5 and waited about 10 mins for a table (no reservations), but that gave us time to scope out the menu. The Luca Salad is not to be missed. It's got kale, romaine, radicchio, Marcona almonds, dried black cherry (YUM), and a cashew-balsamic dressing. This salad was a fan favorite with our group and I've been thinking about it since! In terms of the pizzas, we enjoyed the Sweet Baby Jane (tomato, house-made mozzarella, soppressata, and calabrian honey) with a thin "NY-apolitan" crust. We also got the Jess Knows Best pizza (truffle honey, goat cheese, mushroom, caramelized onions, thyme), but we got it with the "taglio" tall and fluffy crust. All of the crust options are made with naturally fermented sourdough and we were a split group on the favorite crust type. The toppings were a perfect blend of savory, sweet that hit every note we wanted. The pastas were -chef's kiss-. Our fave was the Creamy Tomato Vodka- which had a touch of heat, but totally doable for a heart-burn-prone gal like me. Lastly- we got the Limoncello Cake and the Tiramisu. Both were completely devoured, but the tiramisu is something speciaaaal! They bring it out in a baking dish and serve you at the table. I almost asked "how much for the entire tray??" Overall, one of my new favorite spots in St. Pete. I'll be returning!

    I came with my coworkers and we all did family style so I got to try a bunch of different dishes…read moreall at once. Everything was great, but if I was coming back with just myself and one other person, here is what I would get: Luca salad: I'm never a huge salad guy, but I always enjoys something fresh. This salad had me scraping the plate and looking for seconds. Sweet Jamie Kay Pizza: We got this one thin and it was so good. We had another of the thick pizza with mushrooms and goat cheese. It was great but the thin pizza was my favorite. Creamy Tomato Vodka pasta: this was a crowd favorite at the table and everyone wanted seconds. If you want some protein, add a side of meatballs because those were delicious as well. Tiramisu: We shared a few desserts, but honestly this was one of the best tiramisu I've had in a long time. They bring it out in a big baking dish and I wish they left the whole thing at the table.
