    Margarita
    Betsy M.

    Came here for happy hour. Got six oysters, a margarita and a spritz. Everything came out quickly. Bartender was a pro. Great place!

    My boyfriend and I came to Timpano in Hyde Park for brunch specifically to try their French toast...i've been here before and loved it, but he hadn't tried it yet. We have our absolute favorite French toast spot nearby, but he declared this one by far the best in Tampa, and I have to agree, it's definitely up there! The Tiramisu French Toast (I think that's the one) was incredible: rich, fluffy, perfectly presented. We also got the brunch burger with an added egg. It was okay, nothing wrong with it, but it had a bit of a burnt/hard flavor on the patty that some people love but wasn't our favorite. Price-wise, it felt standard for a place like this (similar to other upscale burgers around Tampa), but we weren't dying over it. The truffle fries we added were outstanding, crispy, flavorful, and came with an incredible homemade dipping sauce. For an appetizer, we split the whipped burrata on toast (I think it's burrata crostini or similar) perfect portion to share between two (maybe up to four max), great presentation, and a nice starter. Coffees were very good, deep, rich flavor that stood on its own (I usually go for specialty drinks, but this was perfect black or with a little cream/sugar). Plates looked cute and matched the vibe. Ambience is great...rustic-elegant Italian feel with nice decor. We sat inside (it was cold out, and it was the Sunday after Gasparilla with the market going on). Place was busy for brunch, but we walked in right after church with no reservation and got seated right away, no wait! Our server was awesome: super knowledgeable about the menu and attentive the whole time. Presentation of the French toast, burger, and burrata was spot-on, everything looked Instagram-worthy. My boyfriend's never had dinner here (I've been before, it's been a while), but now he wants to come back for it. Brunch is definitely a win though..solid spot! Highly recommend if you're in Hyde Park or craving great French toast. We'll be back!

    10/10 Christmas dinner. The beef carpaccio as always is amazing. Bruschetta tasted so fresh and light My sea bass was a little underdone but it didn't take away from the experience because they brought us Prosecco and it was divine. Our servers name was Regus or something similar I can't fully remember. He was absolutely amazing. Couldn't have asked for a better experience from the staff.

    We visited this spot for a holiday party and from making the reservation to paying the bill, it was such a pleasant experience. The food was delicious. We ordered a wide variety of foods and everyone shared that they thought the food was well seasoned and decent portion sizes. The restaurant is spacious and was decorated beautifully. Bathrooms were clean and they offer outside seating if interested. Lots of natural light inside and I personally love the tropical plants inside and outside. Our server was nice and was on top of the orders. We'll definitely be back.

    Parm To Table Experience - Bucatini al Pesto
    Hunter D.

    I am extremely bummed to write this review because prior to this visit we had nothing but amazing experiences. However, our yearly Anniversary Dinner was a tremendous let down at Timpano. We went on a Wednesday night this week, thinking there would be less of a crowd, and there was an extremely loud group of individuals that sat in the middle of the restaurant which ruined the whole atmosphere. The thing that surprised me was that none of the staff were asking them to be quiet and respectful of other guests. Instead, the music in the restaurant was turned up so loud so all evening we could barely hear each other. In addition, our server was beyond inattentive and our entire meal took almost 2 hours from start to finish. We ordered the Whipped Ricotta Crostini for $14 which came out cold and the bread was rock hard we couldn't even bite into it. We were able to get that subbed instead for the Housemade Focaccia which was hot a fresh. It was much better. After that it took an additional 20 minutes to order drinks and another 20 before he finally came to our table to ask if we were ready for our main entree. Our waters were not refilled unless asking and when the meal finally did come out the pasta was great except it was cold. After we finished eating, we waited another 30 minutes before our server came back to ask us if we were ready for the check. When he asked us if we wanted our leftovers boxed up, we said yes, and then proceeded to take our food and get stopped multiple times by other servers and went to another couples table with our food in hand. I don't like that our food was taken around the restaurant around multiple different people. There are sanitary issues in hand. Overall, we were extremely disappointed and will not be having our traditional yearly anniversary at Timpano's anymore sadly.

    Timpano has a great happy hour on weekdays from 11am-7pm and weekends from 4-7pm. You can also reserve a happy hour seat at the bar or at a table. Everything on the happy hour menu was delicious, but my personal favorites were the whipped ricotta, meatballs, and mussels. The bartenders were great as well. They also serve brunch on the weekends, which I'll be trying out next

    They have some of the best spicy rigatoni Ihave ever tried. The portion for the price, however, was pretty small. The espresso martini was decent though they automatically put Baileys into it which is not my preference. I sat at the bar and all of the bartenders were super sweet! The interior is very pretty. Not a lot of parking around but was able to score a spot on a side street and walk to the restaurant which is around some other fun shops (though they seem to close pretty early).

    Lobster Arancini
    Addessa J.

    The food at Timpano was delicious. I would say arancini and truffles needed more favor and salt. Please see my ratings.However, the vibe and ambience are everything. Tip: If you want a seat, show up early. I will definitely visit again. Selections: Skillet mussels 4/5 Calamari 5/5 Truffle fries 4/5 Lobster Arancini 3/5 Margarita 5/5 Sangria

    I would like to start by saying a big THANK YOU to our server Emma! She was excellent, recommended the perfect drink and was just kind and amazing. That whipped ricotta on the crostini will FOREVER live in my heart and soul it was absolutely AMAZING. The tomahawk steak was cooked to perfection! Full of flavor, amazing marbling and just enough seasoning. The mashes potatoes paired perfectly. They were smooth, flavorful, did not need any additional seasoning. All in all the meal was perfect and I would love to return!

    Never tried the brunch until now and I highly recommend! They had a wide variety of dishes from sweet to savory. I almost got the tiramisu French toast because it looked delicious, I will definitely get next time, but I wanted lunch so I got the rigatoni with sausage and not only is it super well seasoned and mouthwatering but a big portion I had to bring some home. My fiancée go the breakfast burger and he liked the plate cause the sauce they add to it is out of this world! A tip you have to order the truffle fries it's a must. One weird thing they didn't have Coke Zero for all my zero girlies. The service was a little slow but we went after gasparilla so it was packed. The place is always such a trendy vibe and in the heart of Hyde park! Definitely recommend 10/10

    I love Timpano! It's always so upbeat and lively in there. The food is amazing and the drinks are too. The spritz and espresso martinis always hit. The pastas are delicious and the Mussels are probably the best ones I've ever had. They have some good deals during the "Social hour" so make sure to come early for that. We did the pasta that's served out of the cheese wheel once and that was so good! Highly recommend coming to Timpano soon!

    Kale Caesar salad
    Tania A.

    Timpano has a very energetic vibe. It is beautifully decorated. We were running late on our reservation but they were accommodating and were able to seat us Our server was really nice! We started with the Kale Caesar salad. We decided to go with the Parm to Table bucatini with pesto sauce made on the pasta wheel because when we walked in we saw another party enjoying this and it looked sooo good. We added some grilled chicken and shrimp to our bucatini pesto and it was the perfect amount for the three of us. We enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be back!!!

    Housemade Focaccia
    Cara P.

    Had a lovely dinner at Timpano while in Tampa for work. All dishes were very good and the service was great on a very busy Tuesday night. The noise level was thankfully manageable even though it was quite busy. The radiatore was probably my favorite, though I would have liked a little more pancetta. The meatballs were another favorite. The parm to table pasta in the parm wheel was novelty but skippable in my opinion.

    Is there parking?

    There is roadside parking, plus there is a parking garage near Timpano.

    Are kids allowed?

    They are, however, I wouldn't exactly call this place family friendly per se. It's very loud and geared a bit more towards adult groups/date nights

    Are there vegan options?

    No vegan, but they have some vegetarian options.

    Does Timpano still have live jazz and if so what days & times?

    No. Food was not the same. Piano is gone

    How expensive are they?

    Expensive

    No prices listed? Weird. Must be expensive.

    Yes.

    Is there happy hour?

    There used to be a few years ago but you had to sit outside or in the bar area. They just renovated and it made the bar area larger so I am not sure now because what would be considered the bar area is the largest part of the restaurant. I'd call… 

    Do you need reservations and is there a happy hour?

    I would highly recommend reservations as wait time could be longer than expected.

    Saw articles mentioning restaurant is scheduled to reopen sometime before the 2021 holidays... this is my & my husbands favorite restaurant and I'm dying for it to be reopen before November, to celebrate our wedding anniversary! Any updates to this?

    Opens November 1, 2021. Newly renovated.

    Is this place back in business?

    Yes! As of 11/02/2021

Totally blown away!…read more Tucked, downtown Tampa you enter through a secret bookcase door and you enter a very low key pirate bar! Lighting is dim, which is part of the concept. (Auto flash is needed for pics) The joint, is VERY CLEAN! The staff is awesome and very attentive! They understand process. The drinks are SOOO WELL MADE! I had a Zombie as my first drink, and it is very well presented and STRONG! I prefer,my first drink at an establishment to be strong cause then I can lighten it up later. Then I had a Rum Barrel, not as strong, but well presented and delicious! Note: Prices for drinks are worth every dime! They have a small food menu, but everything on the menu looked delicious, but I did not eat there. This speakeasy is attached to a British pub which I went for food after. (Review to come) All-in-all great spot to come and have a drink you are well treated, appreciated and just a fun experience! I will DEFINITELY come back here for a delicious drink and DEFINITELY will try something off the food menu. I'll just make sure next time I won't go there after a big breakfast lol!

We were seated at the corner table so we were able to people watch. Our server, Brianna, was super nice and very attentive. I never had to ask her for a refill on my Coke Zero; she just kept them coming! We started with some shareables for the table. Kung Pao Brussel Sprouts which were done just right. We also ordered a half cheese, half pepperoni pizza to share. I've never had a "Columbus-style" pizza before. If you're wondering, the crust is somewhat thinner than most pizzas, but not a thin-crust pizza. The toppings are spread all throughout the pizza to the edge, and then cut it in squares (Tavern style). It was very tasty, with a slightly sweet note. My hubby and I ordered the Cobb Salad (without bacon) which was delicious. I really liked the onions on it. It was very fresh and they served a generous portion. Hubby ate the whole thing, but I had the rest of mine for dinner. So good! Two of our friends ordered the Truffle Mushroom Smash Burger and they loved them. I tried my buddy's tater tots, which he ordered with his French Dip. They were nice and crispy, but could have used some kind of flavoring, like Parmesan or truffle. Doesn't mean I didn't eat them all! LOL. The restaurant looks small when you enter, but in addition to the front dining area and bar, it has two additional dining areas, as you walk towards the back, and another bar. If you find yourself in the Channelside area, you should definitely try out Small Giant.
