Choose to sit inside and experience the dimly lit, cozy atmosphere, or opt for the small patio outside. Wherever you choose, the classic Italian fare will be excellent and reasonably priced. You will also quickly understand why this family-friendly restaurant has been serving the South Tampa area for more than 20 years.
An oak-burning stone oven crafted in Milan, Italy, produces piping hot pizza with an extra light, crispy crust. Toppings include everything from pesto to pepperoni and a full bar is on hand along with a wine menu at the ready to complement the savory Italian cuisine. Crayons and white butcher paper adorn the tables and keep the kids (and sometimes the adults, too) occupied until the food arrives.
