Top Best Italian Restaurants in Pinellas Park

"Whether you’re having a family dinner or a casual date night in Tampa, Bella’s Italian Cafe is a perfect choice. Start your meal with fried ravioli and marinara dipping sauce, or you can try the Formaggio al Forno or Caprese salad. The shrimp scampi with garlic, scallions, and crushed red pepper is some of the best in town as well."

"The Italian-inspired cocktail menu is the perfect jumping off point for a classic and delicious meal. Bella’s has been awarded the Best Italian Restaurant in Tampa crown by Creative Loafing readers again and again for good reason. Be warned, the portions are enormous, so plan to bring home leftovers!"

"Bella's has been a favorite of locals in South Tampa for over three decades. Featuring home-cooked flavors, everything is prepared from scratch here including their pizza dough and pasta. Diners return often to tuck into the delicious wood-fired pizzas and full menu of classic Italian favorites."

"Conceived by the culinary tour de force behind Tampa Palms and Daily Eats, this ultra-contemporary eatery fits in well with the SoHo mentality â€" it's got "big city" style, it's sexy and cosmopolitan, and it's the type of place where folks like to be seen. Bright, fanciful cocktails and a cool, underwater motif recall the Pan Asian haunts you'd find in a place like South Beach, and the menu gives the concept of sushi a few surprising twists and turns. For example, the rolls, called "water rolls" are "clear" â€" that is, everything is rolled in thin rice paper â€" and each truly emphasizes perfect pairings of fresh fish and seafood. Recommended for Sushi because: Ciccio's Water offers sushi with a California twist offering their unique "water rolls.". Skye's expert tip: If you're trying to cut down on carbs, their rolls are available without the sticky rice."

"WATER + FLOUR is a California-themed restaurant that specializes in upscale, creative sushi rolls, and they have quickly shown that they know what they’re doing. Brunch, lunch, and dinner are all offered here at WATER + FLOUR, but we think the dinner menu is where their recipes truly shine with all the glorious sushi options. WATER + FLOUR is perfect for any health-conscious guest as they offer nothing but the highest-quality fish and vegetables in their sushi."

"Recover from your night out in South Howard with a solid Tampa brunch at WATER + FLOUR. A hit amongst the college crowd and their families, everyone can enjoy this spot’s diner style eats. I love WATER + FLOUR any day of the week for their delicious pastas and yummy sushi, but you can’t beat their brunch drink deals!"

"Reminiscent of the New York City’s pre-World War II Little Italy dinner houses. Maggianos specializes in lavish platters of Southern Italian fare. Open for lunch and dinner."

"Also on the historic 7th Ave is Bernini of Ybor, an Italian bistro named after Renaissance era artist Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini. Described by themselves as ‘an eclectic eatery where the cuisine compliments your surroundings without compromising your wallet,’ Bellini certainly delivers when it comes to beautiful, authentic cuisine for a reasonable price Come to Bernini for more fine-dining options in Ybor, such as the multiple duck entrees or the classic Italian pasta dishes."

"So, now we will travel to historic Ybor City to visit our next restaurant. Bernini Ybor stands out among the Italian restaurants in Tampa because it is integrated right into a lively and social setting filled with plenty of history and culture. In Ybor, you will find clubs, bars, cigar bars, boutiques, and roosters!"

"As you would expect from a place named after a famous Italian sculptor, Bernini is going for the classical vibe. Fine art and decorative columns may fill the space, but what we're really interested in is the gourmet food. Dishes include black Angus beef, orange-glazed duck, and fresh salmon."
