    Great place for local Tampa people to enjoy good food and your favorite beverage. The short rib is quickly becoming my favorite.

    Food was excellent. We had a table of 8 women and everyone fully enjoyed their meals. Service was slow and a bit inexperienced with timing for a big table. Ambience was pretty and intimate.

    What a sweet find for Sunday brunch. The deviled eggs were a treat only exceeded by the Stromboli. Our server was awesome and very attentive. We’ll be back!!!

    The brunch menu is fantastic...a lot of great choices. I was a little disappointed in the table outside. (I guess I reserved an outside table. I thought I requested indoors.) The outside needs a little spiffing up for a Sunday afternoon. Maybe at night, it's fine. The service was great. The deviled eggs were very good. I had the bruschetta with poached eggs. It was delicious! Bloody Mary's were good too!

    Edwin was phenomenal! Treated us great from beginning to end! The food!!! Meatballs: Amazing. Not the typical super compacted meatballs. These you could easily cut with your fork and melted in your mouth. Cacio e Pepe: Spot on!!! Not greasy/buttery, but instead cheesy from the Parmesan. Overall the best we’ve tried in the Tampa area! Cookie Skillet: Must get!!! Not a huge skillet; which made it a nice desert for 2. We’ll definitely be coming back! A true hidden gem!!

    We were meeting up with friends after a rugby tournament and found Bocelli online. We choose it based on the menu, and because we could make a reservation online through OpenTable. We are from out of state and didn’t want to waste time calling a bunch of places, or get to a restaurant and face a long wait, or get turned away. Other than having to request flatware, appetizer plates, and napkins from a passing server, the service was good. We liked the the pasta dishes could be ordered as half or full servings. I had the rigatoni Bolognese, and shared the beef carpaccio and calamari appetizers, which were all delicious. The half portion of the bolognese was perfect. The restaurant had live music the night we were there, so it was loud, but not unpleasantly so. I would go here again if we were in the area, especially with a large group.

    Went on Saturday night, good crowd with live music inside but we opted to sit outside bc it was not as loud. Jay was our server & he little bit busy but the owner came over few times to help out with anything we needed & made our experience that much better. This restaurant is becoming better & better each time. Great job Bocelli team !

    The food and service was much better today than it was six months ago. I decided to give it a chance again after posting some negative reviews. I was happy with the drinks, the salmon, and desserts.
