14 Best Italian Restaurants in Saint Petersburg

“Food very nice but we felt very rushed. Salads came out before the appetizer and we had only 2 bites from our dinner when the server asked us if we wanted desert…“

“Best pizza ever. The crust and the sauce are the best we've ever tasted. First time we ate this pizza was in October 2025 while we were here on vacation and we knew when we came back in June, we would have to have it again. We dread going home to Tennessee and having to eat from the pizza options we have. Oh and the chicken wings are excellent also.“

“Great experience for our best friends birthday ! Fast service! Great food!!10/10“

“I took my daughter to this establishment for her birthday. We had reservations, but I noticed limited parking upon arrival; however, I found a spot. We waited a few minutes and were seated. Our server, Leah, greeted us, and we ordered beverages and an appetizer. I knew what I wanted right away, while my daughter took a bit longer and chose the lasagna. When the food arrived, the generous portions impressed us. Both of our meals were delicious. I mentioned to the server that it was my daughter's birthday. The head chef also checked in to see if everything was good. Bruce, who was fantastic, surprised my daughter with a big slice of chocolate cake and sang Happy Birthday with the crew. Great job! We will be back again.“

“Enjoyable evening with delicious food and amazing service from Nicole. Food was all so very fresh, the chicken was so tender. Service was wonderful and we cannot wait to return. Nicole was so accommodating and professional. Thank you Carrabba's for such a great night!“

“Stopped in for a quick bite, food was delicious 🤤 🤤🤤“

“I love this place! Whether it’s late night spur of the moment after party food, or I plan to come here for dinner, it’s always delicious. The guy who makes my food (penne pasta with mozzarella cheese thrown in the oven 😉) you’re the best! My kids love their pizza and if they had it their way, they’d be here every other day for lunch.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Well, I would leave 10 stars, but they only allow you 5.

📣🍕 Calling all pizza fans! 🍕📣

As a pizza connoisseur who's tried pizza all over the world, I can honestly say Paizano's is one of my favorite spots in St. Pete. When I first moved here, it was one of the first places I visited, and I completely fell over on my two feet when I tried their pizza. The garlic crust is absolute perfection. 🤌🧄🍕

What keeps me coming back besides the word class pizza, is the family atmosphere. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and they practically know my order before I say it. You can tell this place is a community favorite where customers and staff genuinely enjoy seeing each other.

Don't let a line or a packed dining room keep you away—if anything, that's a sign you're about to have some outstanding pizza. 🔥🍕

And Josh, if you're reading this, the mozzarella sticks are to perfection. 🤌🧀

Great pizza, great people, and great service. Paizano's has earned every one of these five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“pizza is great. we ordered a si.ple large cheese. very hot when we got. garlic knots are also very good. we will be back.“

“My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the pizza from Jets. We had never tried Jets before but will definitely be back! From the first bite we knew this was great pizza, deep dish tasing with a buttery crust! This is what pizza should taste like! They now have a customer for life!“
