After passing this restaurant many times we decided to finally give it try for dinner. We arrived around 5:30pm on a Friday and were seated right away, though the tables filled up within 20 minutes with a decent wait by the time we left. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is nice, though the low lighting with reflective menus forced me to tilt the menu at every angle to read it. Prices are a bit on the higher end. We had baked clams for an appetizer and main courses of tortellini and sea bass. The baked clams were a bit disappointing, with very dry, salty and flaky breading. The tortellini was much better with a rich and creamy sauce. The sea bass was decent though nothing exceptional. Probably worth another visit, though we wouldn’t order anything the same.
Stop driving by this place wondering how good it is. It is by far the best Italian restaurant in the Carrollwood/Tampa Bay area! The garlic rolls are amazing! The service is fantastic! The atmosphere is quaint and great for a romantic date night out or a family style dinner! Nice bourbon, liquor & wine selections and do not skip out on dessert! The prices are a little on the higher end, but the quality and quantity of food you get is worth.
The wife and I decided to venture out and I was in the mood for Italian. We’ve gotten takeout from here a number of times but restaurant food is so much better eaten on site. We had amazing fried Artichoke Hearts as an appetizer. I had the Grouper Puttanesca and my wife the Fiocchi. Everything was delicious. Salad and Garlic Knots included. Too full for dessert, maybe next time.
Took the family. We enjoyed the appetizer, fried calamari. I recommend the lasagna. The kids had plain cheese tortellini, and ordered peas with it - girls did not care for it - I would steer young kids to spaghetti and meatballs. My wife tried the lobster ravioli, it was good. We brought our own bottle of wine $25 cork fee. Dessert we tried the tiramisu was good.
My boyfriend and I, along with another couple went here for dinner on a Saturday night. We heard so many great things about the food and it was everything we expected and more. Our service was a tad slow, we were seated and waited 15-20 mins for our server...beside that everything else was great. The lighting and the music really set the mood. The menu had a large selection of truly authentic Italian food. The food was so flavorful and rich. My taste buds were doing quite the dance over the fiocchi! Highly recommend. The don't do reservations for parties under 6 I believe, our wait at 630 on a Saturday was 30 minutes for a party of 4, which isn't bad at all.
I came in to place a to go order for my first time here and sat at the bar while I waited. The bartender was so hospitable even though he was just taking my to go order. I decided to order a glass of wine while I waited and he brought me a wine list. I made a selection and he asked me if I wanted a sample first to ensure I’d be happy with my selection. I was more than pleased with the wine I selected and my order was ready is approx. ten minutes! The service was superb. I ordered the rigatoni a la vodka with scallops and it was soooo good! By far the best vodka sauce I’ve ever had. I am not in Tampa often but this will have to be on my list every time I visit!
Esposito's hits every single mark of what I think most people are looking for in local Italian restaurant. Old-school, authentic classic recipes? Check. Interesting new recipes? Check. That welcoming neighborhood atmosphere where they treat you like family? Check. Long, endearing family history? Check. It quite literally checks all the boxes. I came with a big group of friends and every single dish that hit the table was to-die-for down to their house salad. Delicious! & you can tell each dish was made with care. The scallop cupcakes were my absolute favorite! The sear on those scallops speaks for itself. Do yourself a favor and check them out! You won't be disappointed!!
Esposito's Italian is proudly serving up top-notch italian food influenced by family recipes and with great attention to detail. I'm not big fan of italian cuisine but I can myself frequenting Esposito's because their dishes have truly authentic and diverse flare. The interior is softly lit with spacious seating throughout the restaurant. I was quickly seated upon arrival I went for early dinner on a Saturday. Very soon after seating, I was greeted by a very courteous wait staff. In fact throughout my visit there were three wait staff ensuring I had everting I needed as well they as a team ensured my experience was top-notch. I don't know if this is usual but it was a very refreshing change to have such great attention a rarity these days. The house-made garlic rolls were warm, fluffy, with just the right amount of garlic and crumbles cheese sprinkled on top - you can't put these down once you start. They are addictive so proceed with caution = The house salad contains chick peas, beets, tomato, lettuce, and red onion. The salad comes pre-dressed and you toss upon serving. The texture and freshness made this salad crunchy and delicious. My only suggestion is to go light on the dressing or ask for the dressing on the side, to avoid overly pre-dressing. My main entree was the Black Seafood Risotto - perfectly done risotto with squid's ink that enhances richness and flavor and served with mussels, clams, and octopus. If you are a seafood lover this dish is as beauty to look at as it is to the tastebuds. The octopus stake server atop risotto pairs perfectly with the creamy risotto while the mussels and clams add texture and balanced saltiness. The squid's ink adds the rich black glistening color to the risotto. This item is a true exploration of a popular traditional Italian dish from the Adriatic Coast. I finished my meal with a perfectly portioned slice of Limoncello cheese cake with raspberry drizzle. This sweet concoction blended with limoncello's slight tartness made for a perfectly smooth finish, while the raspberry drizzle added a pop of visual intrigue to the presentation. Everything about my first visit to Esposito's was top-rated starting from the attentive staff to the proudly prepped and served dishes with high flavor profile. Many kudos to Esposito's. I will most certainly return during non-rush hours and explore their diverse menu and discover some other hidden gems hopefully.
it’s Saturday night around 8pm and we arrived to Esposito’s to place an order to go. The outside was packed with people waiting to get inside and/or finishing off the night with a conversation. Needless to say, we looked at this as a really good sign of things to come — as it’s our first time ordering from this restaurant. After 30-minutes our food was finished and ready for pick up. We arrived home and split a Lasagna and Spaghetti & Meatballs between three of us. The meal also came with garlic knots and a salad. The salad to be honest caught us off guard as we didn’t expect the variety of items. We know for next time. Overall, the food was great. The three of us praised the food, while clearing off our plates to the last bites. I highly recommend Esposito’s to those looking to spend a fantastic evening together over delicious food.
We've been here twice. The by-the-glass wines and the handcrafted cocktails are pretty good. My guest JB loved the scallop cupcakes. They weren't my favorite but no issues I do not have a sweet tooth. We enjoyed the bowtie sausage and chicken saltimbocca. Our experience with the service has been hit or miss but that could be general staffing issues experienced by most restaurants, although one person on our first visit was fairly rude. I'm not a fan of the atmosphere. The bar area looks great and by contrast the dining areas do not. Lighting is way too dark for me.
