My favorite
Italian Restaurant..which is a tough call bc there a few amazing places here in Tampa! First of all the staff is so friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. Second…..OMG, food??? A great big “Chef’s Kiss”! Just so delicious. Please try the Ribeye Steak Gorgonzola prepared med-rare with the gnocchi paired with the Malbac wine pictured here. Entree comes also with a beautiful salad with tasty house made dressing.Perfecto! See Robbie or Eric at the bar and enjoy a nice meal with other friendly diners. The garlic rolls soaked in melted butter and garlic is addictive. Their Chicken Piccata is done just right( this dish has been my previous favorite), the marsala dishes too.. I’ve heard the Veal is also tender and delicious. and It is not difficult to find yourself eating the entire meal even though the portions are generous. See you all again soon !

We tried Esposito for the first time and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. We ordered the Rigatoni alla Vodka and the Gorgonzola Veal, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. Percy’s recommendations were spot on… you can tell he really knows the menu and wants you to enjoy the best of the best.

The garlic knots and house salad were also amazing… fresh, flavorful, and the perfect start to the meal. The whole atmosphere at Esposito feels cozy and welcoming, like sitting down for a homemade dinner made straight from the heart. Everyone we interacted with was so kind and friendly.

For dessert, Percy recommended the Pistachio Cake, and let me tell you… this is a MUST. It was to die for, rich, creamy, and the perfect sweet ending.

We will definitely be coming back to Esposito. If you’re looking for delicious food, warm service, and a place that feels like home, this is it!

I’ve only been here once but we had a wonderful experience. I can’t say enough about the service we received from Percy. He was exceptional! I was undecided on what to order and he walked me through all my options. I was very pleased with my garlic pasta and Francese chicken thanks to him! The front house manager and owner stopped by out table to check on us. Very kind and pleasant people. The garlic bread is fantastic so make sure you eat plenty of it! A nice restaurant and we hope to return soon!

I cannot say enough good things about our dinner. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was the laid back family Italian restaurant that you search forever for. The workers were wonderful from the bar to the table there was always hospitality. The food was mouth watering good. Not a single dish from our table of 9 had a complaint.

Great service and good food. I enjoyed the family-style salad that we shared before having our entrees. I also really liked the artichoke hearts and the spaghetti aglio e olio.

Owner operated and awarded as “Best of Tampa”. We sat at the bar. The bread service was super. The octopus dish was fantastic. More stew like with a tomato broth, wish there were more beans. The oil and garlic pasta was also delicious and the Nigeoni hit the spot too. We were surprised to receive a salad with our entree, a nice touch. The scallops and mousse were delicious as well.

This place is amazing!! Everything we ordered was so fresh and flavorful, I would highly recommend Frankie’s Bowtie and the eggplant rollatini. Carl our server was top notch, so knowledgeable about the menu and preparation of the dishes. He was so attentive and definitely made our first time there unforgettable. The manager Chris came by and made sure everything was up to par, which it most certainly was. Honestly everything looked great in the menu so I’m sure you can’t go wrong here. I would advise getting here early for happy hour and to have a more intimate setting as larger parties started to trickle in later. Overall was such a great dining experience and we will be back soon and spread the word!!

Such amazing food! If you are from the northeast, this food tastes like home. We come here every time we are in the Tampa area!

My experience at Esposito’s Italian Restaurant was deeply disappointing and fell far short of expectations for a fine dining establishment.

The veal chop, while flavorful, was not prepared as described on the menu, which was misleading.

The grouper and shrimp Francese was an even greater letdown. The dish was significantly undercooked and had an overpowering fishy odor, unlike any grouper I’ve ever tasted.

When we raised our concerns with the manager and showed him the dish, he dismissed our feedback without addressing the issue, which was frustrating and unprofessional.
At these price points, diners expect exceptional food, impeccable service, and a memorable experience.

Unfortunately, Esposito’s failed to deliver on all fronts. Based on this visit, we will not be returning.
