    Chocolate Martini ( 2nd drink)
    Nikki P.

    Osteria Pollani in Safety Harbor is definitely worth the visit. We went a week or so ago ( mid April) . Just to get out of the house.. socializing , also Safety Harbor had their monthly " Street Fest" . Sat at the bar I had the Sangria table mate he had the Old Fashion. Both were very good, prompt service, bartender was friendly, helpful and very polite. At this time we were not soo hungry so we ordered the Antipasto platter ( Affettato Misti). Plenty enough for 2. Platter was brought out promptly and yes was amazing. Price is spot on, pretty reasonable. BTW this establishment is locally owned and operated , it's been in the area for sometime now. Kudos to the bartender/ cook and of course the owner. Keep up the great food.

    Chicken Burrata

    The server was friendly, knowledgeable, and on top of everything! The food was fresh, hot, and delicious...I will be getting the Chicken Burrata again! We sat outside, but the inside looked very nice as well.

    Chicken saltimboca

    Third time here. No problems the first two times here even though people said it was too much of a sports bar. They've calmed down the TVs and had very nice Italian music on Father's Day First off, Christina, our server was amazing. People say it's expensive but they serve a lot on the entrées. We started with the arancini which has always been excellent. My wife had the Branzini which for her palette was way too salty. Although she said, cooked to perfection. I had the chicken saltimbocca which is excellent. There was a small part that was a little tough on the chicken, but for the most part excellent taste The best part was the sauce on the chicken, which also complimented the spaghetti. You normally just get a red sauce on spaghetti, which is blah. But this sauce was amazing. They having an excellent list of wines. Best part is you can have a glass of excellent wine for $10.

    Calamari
    John M.

    A beautiful street front gem with a bright, clean interior and friendly wait staff. The Italian menu has many of your favorites. The Calamari appetizer is once of the best, very lightly breaded. The side Caesar is small and tasty. The special was a grilled Salmon Cioppino. The sauce was excellent, make sure you request the fish cooked medium rare or it will be slightly overcooked, and the potato wedges were out of place. Bread served is complimentary. For desert, the Tiramisu is the lightest we've had. The wine list is short but diverse. Parking is problematic.

    I have been here a couple times and the food is always fantastic! This last time I decided to try the lasagna and it was delicious! Perfect flavor. The pollo burrata pasta is my favorite dish on the menu! Definitely get that if you don't try anything else! My boyfriend got the chicken piccata and he really enjoyed it. The arincini appetizer is so delicious and craveable! I highly recommend this place for a nice relaxing date night. The service is great and the ambiance is very relaxing and welcoming. I love their aperol spritz as well. Very refreshing!

    Pollo alla Marsala (Osteria Pollani Safety Harbor)
    Jared M.

    I met friends here who are already regulars despite this restaurant recently opening. So my expectations were high going in and the food and service definitely delivered. We started with the mussels and bang bang shrimp appetizers. The group loved the mussels. The bang bang shrimp were amazing. I would order that again and again. For entrees, we ordered the gnocchi ragu, chicken piccata, and chicken marsala. Everybody loved their dish. The gnocchi ragu was really fantastic. The ambience is very nice; kind of fancy and relaxed. They also have several TVs over the bar visible from the entire restaurant (nice to catch a peak of a game). Also, located on the lively Main Street. Definitely will be back.

    We decided to try a new restaurant in Safety Harbor. I'm Italian and pretty picky about my Italian food. To start the atmosphere is not your typical Italian restaurant. It's pretty industrial feeling. Nothing cozy or romantic. A little bit of a turn off but nothing major. We ordered the calamari and bang shrimp for appetizers. Calamari tasted like rubber bands. Yuck! ($18). The shrimp was good but not very big portion. I think 8 small shrimp ($16). I ordered the Bolognese dish and had my high expectations crash. It was pretty tasteless and instead of penne pasta had some lasagna noodles that were overcooked and soggy. Honestly I can make a better sauce myself and this was made by a chef? Next a member of the party asked for more bread and was told there would be a $4 charge. Really for bread at an Italian restaurant? Completely unacceptable especially since this place is not cheap by any means. Come on keep the bread coming. . . On some positive notes my husband got the rib eye steak. Absolutely delicious and other couple got the filet which was great and the grouper which she said was delicious! So not sure why they want to be an Italian restaurant since that was the only dishes (calamari & Bolognese) that was below standards. My take if you go get the steak or grouper and stay away from the Italian dishes. Sad but true.

    New Italian restaurant in safety harbor. Food was very good. Service was quick. A bit of a sports bar vibe which you don't usually see with an Italian restaurant

    Lobster ravioli

    This was my first time at this restaurant and it definitely won't be my last! I had the lobster ravioli and my friend had the branzino. Both were absolutely delicious!! Our server was amazing, too. (I wish I could remember her name). Anyway, I can't to go back to this wonderful restaurant. It truly was a great experience.

I love Italian food - the flavor it has etc. This store has been around for over 50 years per Sal who I met. But I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with this store as they don't seem to be gourmet at all. I was looking for fresh pasta/ravoli, bread,pestos, things I usually get at the Italian market. Unfortunately, Sal led me to a section of dry boxed pasta trying to convince me it was the best. I then asked him about ravioli as that was mainly what I wanted to cook that night. He then took me to his freezer and said he had the best ravioli. Although it wasn't what I was looking for, I decided to give it a try and got a lb of ravioli. His frozen ravioli didn't compare to the frozen ravioli I got from the nature store down the street. I used the same sauce and everything I did previously and it was just blah. Additionally his store is mostly just boxed and bottled items imported from Italy, so things are a bit different nowadays and importing from other countries isn't as gourmet as it used to be. Unfortunately, I don't see myself coming back which is sad because I love to support small local businesses.

    This was hands down the best chicken parm I've had in the area (and that's saying something because…read moremy friend's homemade is hard to beat). It was our first time here and they were absolutely slammed... for good reason. The food was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The sauce tasted homemade, the chicken was perfectly breaded and tender, and the portion size was generous. The garlic knots were incredible -- soft, buttery, and full of garlic. I didn't even get a picture because we dug in immediately. That should tell you everything. Even with how busy they were, the service was still great. Michelle was kind, attentive, and handled the rush with such a positive attitude. It's in a prime location near the hotels and right off 19, so I can see why they stay busy. Taking over the old Green Market spot was a smart move. The atmosphere felt welcoming and clean. 10/10 recommend. My husband and I will absolutely be back.

It was very good but I was a little disappointed that it didn't come on an Italian sub bread, as pictured in the online menu. I'll have to ask if that is an available option next time. The owners are from Naples and the quality from what I saw was way higher than I expected for a restaurant situated right next to a hotel, but it is definitely worth giving it a try. I can't wait to try some of the entrees, the calzone, pizza and Stromboli. I will definitely be back! Quick update. I just called them and unfortunately, their sandwiches are only available on foccacia bread.....no Italian sub bread.

The bartender greeted me immediately and introduced himself, and in no time at all I had a delicious limoncello spritz in front of me. Inside the restaurant everything was sleek, clean, and bright, and the jazz piped in from the live music outside added the perfect ambiance. I had made reservations, so we were sat exactly at our time. I highly recommend making reservations because this place filled up quickly and stayed busy the entire time we were there. Our very friendly and knowledgeable server let us order off of the happy hour menu, so my friends and I split a variety of items. First - bread with the 3 dips - you absolutely must get this. Second - fried zucchini balls. While I did like them, I wish they were smaller so the inside was a little more cooked. Third - Creamy Tomato Vodka Pasta - yummy with a bit of kick! This was my favorite food item. Fourth - Queen Stella Margherita pizza. Surprisingly, this was my least favorite item. We got it thin-crust, and while it looked good, it was served completely cold, and the flavor can only be described as cardboard-like. I would definitely try another pizza here, but not this one. My friends also split an order of meatballs, which they loved. While they had wine for dessert, I had a piece of limoncello cake for dessert. It was fantastically lemony and moist, which I loved. Their parking lot is valet only, but fortunately you only have to pay the $6 fee Fri-Sun, so we just had to tip the very friendly valet.

We were a group of 5 and waited about 10 mins for a table (no reservations), but that gave us time to scope out the menu. The Luca Salad is not to be missed. It's got kale, romaine, radicchio, Marcona almonds, dried black cherry (YUM), and a cashew-balsamic dressing. This salad was a fan favorite with our group and I've been thinking about it since! In terms of the pizzas, we enjoyed the Sweet Baby Jane (tomato, house-made mozzarella, soppressata, and calabrian honey) with a thin "NY-apolitan" crust. We also got the Jess Knows Best pizza (truffle honey, goat cheese, mushroom, caramelized onions, thyme), but we got it with the "taglio" tall and fluffy crust. All of the crust options are made with naturally fermented sourdough and we were a split group on the favorite crust type. The toppings were a perfect blend of savory, sweet that hit every note we wanted. The pastas were -chef's kiss-. Our fave was the Creamy Tomato Vodka- which had a touch of heat, but totally doable for a heart-burn-prone gal like me. Lastly- we got the Limoncello Cake and the Tiramisu. Both were completely devoured, but the tiramisu is something speciaaaal! They bring it out in a baking dish and serve you at the table. I almost asked "how much for the entire tray??"

If you want some protein, add a side of meatballs because those were delicious as well. Tiramisu: We shared a few desserts, but honestly this was one of the best tiramisu I've had in a long time.
