    Well, heck that was really good. I had the pink pasta Bolognese and the wife had the eggplant while my daughter had the chicken Parm all were fantastic. The opening salad was really good and the wine that they serve served as house wine was fantastic. We will be back here.

    What a gem! Visited the place with friends a few days ago and had top notch service. Food was exceptional. Ambiance is low key and charming. I believe the owner came out and gave me and my friends red roses. So cute!

    Vino e Pasta truly feels like home. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and welcoming. Service is wonderful from start to finish, capped off with roses for all the ladies at the end, which is such a thoughtful touch. And the food deserves its own moment. With endless pasta combinations to choose from, it is hard to go wrong, but the angel hair carbonara was insanely good and a must order. The live guitar singer adds an extra layer of charm that makes the whole experience feel special. Absolutely love this spot!

    This is an amazing place, first time here. We went as a family to celebrate my daughter's birthday and everything was delicious very Italian taste from the appetizers to the drinks to the entree. The minute you walk in the service was exceptional. They treat you like you're the only in the restaurant. The ambiance is amazing and romantic too. They even have a piano player, we went on a Friday evening so I would check if he is only there in the weekends. Also, I would recommend reservations, the place is not so big. Plenty of parking on the side of the place but not for too many cars. I would recommend this restaurant 5 stars from me.... I will be back!!! Thank you for your service!!

    After months of living across from Vino E Pasta, we decided to stop by for dinner last night. It was a little busy but we were able to get a table right away. We started with a couple of appetizers, a Burrata salad, which I believe was a special, and a Pasta Fagioli soup. Both appetizers were delicious, I recommend the Pasta Fagioli soup! Can't wait to have it again. For our entrees, we got a Fettuccini Carbonara and a Lasagna. OMG! Both dishes were amazing. But the Lasagna was out of this world. It's a must try! They had live music, great vibes, and everyone was very attentive. I forgot the servers name but he was great. Only bad thing is the didn't have Peroni or Stella, but the beer the server recommended wasn't too bad. We can't wait to go back and try their other menu items.

    This place is amazing!! For starters, the service you receive makes this spot stand out amongst the other restaurants. Our server Juan was attentive and personable. The restaurant itself is cozy and decorated perfectly. Everything we had to eat was exquisite, they have the best lasagna (20 year old family recipe) and chocolate mousse! To top everything off, their prices are very fair in comparison to other restaurants in the area. This place is a hidden gem!!!

    Welcome to VINO E PASTA. It is literally a small place from the outside, but when you open the door and step in you will find that you have gone to a place you did not expect. It looks as if you have taken a step back into Italy and entered a small and friendly place that will get you through the evening. And, as you spend the time there you realize it is good you have the reservation beforehand. Otherwise you will be standing outside and hope that a spot becomes available for you. A WAY TO MEET AND GREET. If you are there for a gathering of friends or family, it is important that you first get to the table and sit down to start talking. The team comes around and hands out the menu to start. Naturally the first thing to do is to consider a cocktail, a beverage, or being Italian, maybe a bottle of wine. They will hand you the wine menu to consider. There is a good variety to choose from. Including a selection of wines from Italy. And that is ideal when you are in an Italian restaurant. Here are wines to review and consider and to discuss with those who might enjoy a glass during the conversations. Taking our time we agreed on having a Ruffino Chianti Classico, 2019. The waiter took the order and we waited. In the meantime we could talk and look at the menu for dinner. Naturally, being Italian, we had to start with appetizers. That is only natural. Appetizers are next. We had placed that order first before selecting what we would have for dinner. First selected was the Fried Calamari and Zucchini. This was warm and slightly breaded as expected. We all tried it. With the first bite we could tell it was fresh. The calamari was caught that day and tasted as it should. Fresh, flavorful and tender. Not over cooked or hard. It was ideal to try. As for the zucchini, which is an interesting combination, that too was fresh and tender. The flavor was not over seasoned. It was as to be expected as if it was the flower of a zucchini. And that is rare to have in many places. Next up was the Eggplant Rollatini. As an appetizer this was not something you expect. You receive several "rolls" which we then sliced so we could all have a try. The sauce was fresh on top. The eggplant was tender and just right. It was stuffed with some meat and seasoning as required. Once the appetizers had arrived we did place our main order. Once more, being from an Italian family we ordered the same way we ate. You just keep eating and talking. First out was the Melanzana Parmigiana ali Hugotine. This was freshly sliced eggplant with melted mozzarella. The top was mixed with fresh spinach which was an interesting touch. This was all marinated in a light marinara sauce. Next came the Lasagnas. These were large slices of a favorite. The freshly made pasta was layers of meat and cheese and sauce and more. Naturally this was topped with a heavy sauce that was richer than a marinara sauce. It too seemed to have a mixture of cheese blended into it. It was not expected to be like this. Fettuccine Carbonara came next. This is not a typical dish in many establishments. But here it was available, and we knew we had to try. This dish is made by cooking bacon, shallots, onion, and garlic, then tossing it with fettuccine pasta and a creamy sauce.The bacon was thick and cut into cube slices. The garlic was light but tasty. The sauce was thick and creamy. You could almost use a spoon to pick up the sauce itself. The we had the fish starting with Snapper Champagne. It was a fresh filet of snapper just caught. It was sauteed in a light and creamy champagne sauce. This was with clam juice and white wine. It was then topped with crabmeat granita. We also had homemade Seafood Raviolis that were filled with shrimp and lobster, then topped with a creamy lobster style seafood sauce. It was arranged with shrimps and muscles. The heavy sauce made you take your time to enjoy each one and you tried each piece of seafood individually. It was different. Dessert was typical. Tiramisu, and on the opposite, we had Oreo Cake. Total piece of chocolate for all who might like chocolate. Finally a Limoncello Cake. It is made with fluffy sponge cake layers, brushed with a limoncello syrup, filled with a thin layer of lemon curd and frosted with a decadent mascarpone and cream cheese frosting. It was also topped with a bit of pecan for an extra touch of taste. The food selection is good and has a good choice to select from. It is not over abundant. The selection is fine and diverse. The prices are reasonable (and sometimes higher than expected, including the wine selection). The dish is plentiful. The sauce is good although, this too, is a bit heavier than expected in other locations or even when in Rome. You can use a spoon to finish it off, or maybe a loaf of bread will help. It is your choice after all. The flavor is good, the right amount of spice and taste. It is all fresh and warm. Ciao / Chow.

    Every single item on the menu is perfection. Service is 10/10. Even though it is a smaller restaurant, SO much comes out of that kitchen and the tables stay full. Make a reservation!

    Seafood ravioli special
    Krista S.

    I've been on the hunt for the best Italian food in Tampa Bay....vino e pasta scored pretty high on my list. The food is very good, but the service was impeccable. The service really took this place over the top. I really appreciated the attention to detail, and the whole experience felt special from start to end! I had the special seafood ravioli dish, and my partner had the chicken parm. My only complaint was the portion sizes were small and the chicken parm wasn't breaded, but that might just be my American showing... Anyways, I really recommend this place for a special, intimate Italian experience. I felt like I was transported to a little gem of a spot in Italy.

    Do you take reservations?

    They do. I would not recommend any other way!

    What time do they serve lunch menu?

    Is this an affordable restaurant for college kids on a budget? Looking for an affordable date night location

    Portions are definitely shareable & they will split the plate! I recommend splitting a salad, an appetizer and then splitting a dish. Then you'll have a three course meal at a reasonable price! The wine is also very affordable!

We had ordered two appetizers to share , and were finishing when she came over. We were on the outside patio , our Chihuahuas were contained in their carriers, and the only time one of them barked was when the waiter came by. We were there early at 11:30. For 15 minutes we were the only ones out there , then this elderly couple came and when they walked by us the elderly woman gave us a dirty look. Five minutes later another couple sat but further away from us. That woman seemed to be the only one with a problem. I should have asked the manager that if someone had complained about a screaming child( which usually is constant) would they have been asked to leave? I really like the food , and the service but we are contemplating whether to go there again because frankly we felt insulted! We only brought the dogs to begin with because my daughter is going on a trip and she is leaving the dogs with us. So we were exchanging them, and thought we would have lunch. The manager and the elderly couple ruined the experience for us. The manager told us that pets were not permitted but I checked in two different places , and pets are permitted on their patio. I feel they should either change their policy , or inform the manager as to what the policy is because she told us that pets were not allowed! Next time we will meet somewhere in St. Petersburg because that city is very pet friendly!
