    Spaghetti Modo Mio
    Robert D.

    So I went here with my family to celebrate my dad's birthday. Very classy restaurant. The staff was professional and alert. Our server checked in now and then to see if we needed more drinks. Dinner came fairly quick after the appetizers. I decided to go with Spaghetti Modo Mio with meatballs. I honestly didn't know what to expect but needless to say, I was far from disappointed. The sauce was bursting with flavor which made every bite absolutely delicious. I probably ate it faster than I should've but I couldn't help it. I'm sure Ill be back at some point.

    Yesterday, I had a luncheon event at the Vineyards, and it was a nice experience. The service was great and the food good. I can't believe that the place is so close by me and this was only my second time there. I'll definitely be back for dinner.

    I would give this place a 5, but it took about 10 minutes to be greeted when we came in the restaurant with a reservation. Other than that, it was great! The inside reminds me of a mom and pop Italian restaurant. White table cloths and cute decor. The food was great, many gluten free options. I got a gluten free pizza and it came with an entire burrata on top!

    This is a local favorite, expensive menu and spent of seating . One of my favorites is the lobster ravioli in the pink sauce, from bar seat, dining to table side there's always friendly service.

    We've officially found our new go-to spot! From the moment we walked in, everything was absolutely perfect. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the service was attentive and genuinely welcoming, and the food... incredible. Every dish we tried was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can tell this place takes pride in every detail. Easily a 10/10 experience. We'll definitely be back soon--and bringing friends and family with us!

    Chef special - Penne in vodka sauce w/ meatballs and sausage $30

    Great visit to The Vineyards last night! We wanted to find a cozy local Italian place, and this wasn't too far from the Riverview area! Everything was great. We didn't have to wait but 10 minutes for a table, although they were busy on a Friday night so I would suggest reservations for larger parties! Prices were reasonable. We split a bottle of wine, had an app and 2 entrees for $100. I had the chef special which was a penne, vodka sauce, with a large ball of fresh cheese, meatballs, and sausage. We started with appetizers the fried calamari, which was great! Also, we had the Trietto pasta which as it sounds, had 3 types of pasta. So yummy all around! Service was upbeat and friendly and everything went very well. I highly recommend to come to the vineyards to try out a nice local Italian spot in Apollo Beach area!

    First - shout out to Donnie our server this evening ..outstanding service from beginning to end The food was fantastic - started with the burrata which is Tomato /creamy mozzarella cheese on a bed of greens with balsamic oil drizzled on top followed by a generous house salad for 2 with red wine dressing - my entree was the mama Mia which consists of 3 medium sized portions of lasagna, chicken parm & penne a la vodka - very good and a lot of food , my wife ordered the shrimp Cristina which was shrimp,crabmeat , scallops,capers and sun-dried tomatoes over linguini -excellent . Well decorated with great Italian favorites playing in the background - love this place

    Great place to have a meal! The chicken parm and lobster ravioli were exceptional, but everything was really good! Eternity was both our hostess and server as we were there at a slower time, and she did a great job...service and food were both 10/10

    House Salad
    Michael B.

    The ambience is that of a fine dining establishment. The food taste is the same. Food comes out very hot. The flavor was beyond good flavorful with every single bite. After eating for 30 minutes, our food was still hot. The Shrimp Cristina was cooked to perfection. The shrimp was juicy and the lemon caper sauce was just right. The Alfredo was creamy. The portion size is huge. If you can eat all this food in one setting...I don't know if that's scary or very impressive. We literally could've had leftovers from The kids portion. Highly recommended.

    $9 Tiramisu if you want to call it that. This is garbage.

I only ordered it because it was the special and my brain was over making decisions for the day. They have something special, and I don't think I've had a better scampi outside of Italy. It was that good. Our table also had the calamari, fried mozzarella, and lasagna. Everything was made to order and you can taste the quality and authenticity in every bite. The location was busy but the service was spot on. They had workers walking around, cleaning, and checking on guests. Even the manager was on the floor and very present. That speaks to their commitment to providing a solid dining experience. The decor did seem a little cluttered, but the speed to which we received our food had us in and out, so we weren't affected by the environment too much. Overall, I've found my new Italian spot in Riverview. I'll eventually go every day of the week to try all their specials. That's how lasting my first experience was.

Similarly, I don't love Italian food, but I also feel like a good dining experience near Sun City Center is sorely lacking. So my family and I were happy to try Mandola's! It has exceeded our expectations. I was able to get one of the best Caesar salads I have ever eaten. (Note, the chilled plate is a sign of a restaurant noticing the small things.) And the service is speedy, with the complimentary focaccia and oil hitting my table almost as soon as we were seated. ATTENTION: Don't be like me. The first time I visited, I was like, "I'm not paying 18%-20%-25% to grab drinks from a cooler, submit my own order, and grab my own utensils." But they really do bus the table, or grab anything you need from the dining/kitchen for you, if asked. Thanks for being clean, efficient, and most importantly, so friendly!

The people are also very nice even if service is a little slow. Okay, now to the meat of what you're interested in: the food. If the food were 50% cheaper you'd probably be willing to overlook its shortcomings for the ambiance. There's little seasoning to be found on anything so everything is bland. Even the fries are completely lacking in salt. The grouper was breaded nicely and cooked properly but it was almost tasteless. The bacon carried my wife's Crab BLT because everything was so bland for her. The lobster dip appetizer had uncooked Parmesan sprinkled on the bread that was neither bruschetta nor dipping bread so it just didn't work well as an appetizer either. Overall, there's a better restaurant literally next door that's a little cheaper and I can't see coming back after such a disappointing outing.

The food simply isn't on the same level as other Italian restaurants in Tampa. We ordered the bruschetta as one of our appetizers, and it was disappointing. The bread was barely toasted, there was no mozzarella, no balsamic drizzle--just plain bread with chopped tomatoes in a bowl, and not even Roma tomatoes. My chicken parm was equally underwhelming. It came as two chicken breasts with sauce and cheese, but they weren't pounded thin and they weren't breaded! I'm Italian, and this is definitely not authentic chicken parm. They mentioned having a chef, but if that's the case... he must of been off that night!
