MONDAY - Chicken Capriciossa
Cassy N.

Never been here before, but I really liked it! It is a fast casual italian restaurant but with higher end dishes. It was a bit pricey but the meal I got I think was worth the price. I had the Monday special, the chicken capriciossa with fettuccine & tomato cream sauce. The pasta and the focaccia bread was my favorite part! Wish they had more white wine, they had a great red selection. The bartender Cody was a nice kid and got everything to me quickly. I'd definitely go back to try the pizza.

thought it was great food till i had the chicken parm. it was while i was eating that I realized the chicken isn't smelling like chicken and it looked really different. I tested to see if flys would eat it aswell but they didn't

The food looked great but portions are so small for the price. The Chicken Parmesan the chicken was huge but.... pounded so thin it was tasteless. Then there was not much pasta with this $24 dinner. The salad was large & flavorful except I bit into something very hard, like a rock. I've added pics. For $24 the entree does not come with salad, garlic bread, soup, nothing.... barely even any pasta with this paper thin tasteless chicken. I've added pics of that as well. The Chopped Italian Salad is large but it's not worth $19. The Side of Meatballs was decent. The meatballs were good. That was probably the best part of our order. The salad would have been except I nearly broke a tooth on a rock in the salad. The salad seemed fresh, the little pasta we had was cooked al dente' there were just only about 10 noodles with a teaspoon of sauce. Please see photos as it is comical the prices versus portion sizes from this restaurant.

In a crowded food space, Mandola's can hold its own! I heard about Mandola's from a friend but the "chain" aspect threw me a bit. When we moved to Tampa we agreed to stop dining at chains as much as possible. Our visit tonight gave me "Little Italy" vibes in the best possible way. Greeted by a lovely hostess, we were offered full service bar seating or easy counter service. We opted to order at the counter and it gave us time to cruise the dessert case. Our pizzas were perfectly crispy and the fried cheese was a gooey and crispy at the same time. We enjoyed complimentary bread and dipping oil. We tried to save room for dessert but in the end, cried "Uncle". Nah... we just took it "to go". Whether dining in or take away, you will feel like you've just eaten at Mom's house for Sunday dinner.

I love Mandola's! I love Italian food in all it's many forms and styles, so it's nice that I don't get the same thing everywhere I go. I may love lasagna, but that honor generally goes to Carrabbas when I want it. Here, at Mandola's I love their Mezzeluna Modo Mia along with their Italian Creme cake. So when I found a Mandola's located right here in Oldsmar, I was so excited that I didn't have to go all the way to Carrollwood or even Riverview just to get my fix. The interior is warm, colorful, and inviting, just like the other locations I've been to, so it was nice waiting for my to-go order. It's not as big as Carrollwood, which is okay since I already know what I want anyway. My food came out rather promptly, and when I arrived home, everything tasted perfectly hot and fresh. I love how I got it with a side of the parmesan cheese for the pasta and olive oil for the focaccia bread. For the perfect, finish, none other than their unique, Italian Creme cake! Love how I have a new Mandola's to swing by for my faves!

This was our first time at this location, a former Ruby Tuesday's. It is completely different, and wonderful! When we walked in we were greeted by a friendly hostess who gave us menus and showed us where to order our dinner. It was quick and easy. The difficult part was deciding what to order from many delicious sounding entrees. After we ordered spaghetti & sausage for husband and a Fiorentino pizza for me, we took our number placard and found a seat. We did not wait long for bread and oil & vinegar. The bread was fantastic!! Our entrees came soon after, and they did not disappoint. They filled us up, and we needed a box to take home half our meals. On our way out, we looked lovingly at the desserts. So many, and no room for any of them! The coconut cake was huge for $7.50. Next time. And the gelato flavors looked awesome. I tasted the tiramisu - just like the real thing! We will be back!!

I enjoy the spaghetti and meatballs. I just wish they would serve regular bread, like Italian.

How are the portions for dinner? As well as the food

Portions are quite nice....BUT..do not get the hot sandwiches, unless you like well done sandwiches...garlic bread for $6...not good. To me the saving grace was the house side salad..great dressing on a cold crisp salad..and the gellato.
