Trattoria Pasquale

I am soooo happy I found this restaurant. This is true Italian food made with love, care, and fresh ingredients. It looks like a family business. When you sit in this restaurant you feel a sense of family & pride in their restaurant. The food was so amazing I think my husband and I will be back tomorrow! Don’t expect the food to be out super fast because you can tell your food is fresh made from scratch. It’s also bring your own wine. They don’t serve wine but you can bring your favorite s which is nice in my opinion. This is my new favorite place to eat! You would never guess from the outside.

Delicious food.

Amazing food, menu and atmosphere. One of the best dining experiences we have had in years. This place is the way dining out should be. Relaxed, fun and delicious. Chef Luigi’s passion for his craft was tasted in every bite. Can’t wait to experience the “Big Night” offering.

The food was delicious. Not overly seasoned and pulls out the flavor of the ingredients. Hidden gem of Tampa for sure. The most authentic Italian I’ve had in Tampa. Owner is also hilarious.

Fantastic authentic Italian meals every timeI have been here !!!

A hidden Tampa gem. Quality authentic food and service. This place deserves more than 5 stars. Perfection.

Oh my God do yourself a favor and go eat here

Fantastic tasting gnocchi in gorgonzola sauce and the chicken cannelloni was amazing. Luigi the owner took our orders and was very personable. We brought our own wine and the night was perfect! Thanks for the great evening Luigi and we will be back from Lakeland! Daniel Faviere and friends

Absolutely wonderful experience at Pasquale!! The food was so delicious and the owner is great! He is so personable and passionate about his food; it shows! I can’t rave enough about this place. Definitely found my new favorite Italian joint in Tampa. I highly recommend this place! It is relatively small and only open for dinner, so I would make a reservation.

Luigi, the owner, greeted us at the table. In fact he visited everyone this evening. We had the cioppino which was really never better. We also had penne bolognese which was very good. Couldn't order dessert this time but if you get a chance, the limoncello cake never disappoints.

The BEST Italian in Tampa! Hole in the wall, excellent service, BYOB, everything you could want for a date night or celebration with family! You cannot beat this place, it’s our favorite!

Creative family cooking, attentive service. A low key gem!

This place has a nice ambiance. The staff were nice and answered all questions. I had the seafood stew and it was absolutely delicious! We even dipped the bread in the stew, that's how flavorful it was! Would definitely recommend and return. From the bread to desserts, it was great a great experience that me and my partner had on our date.

My wife's favorite Italian spot,. Food is great every time. It also has no corkage fee which is really nice. Get the cannolis for sure

Every time I'm in town I like to stop by and have a meal here. It is an intimate little space with authentic Italian fare. Their mussels in marinara sauce is outstanding and I have it every time. As my main course, I ordered the mushroom ravioli. It was also nice, loaded with mushrooms. The waitress was attentive even though she was busy with multiple tables and very pleasant. Remember to bring your own bottle of wine because they do not sell alcohol; unlike me, who had the dash out real quick to a wine store on Clark Street and Gandy Boulevard to purchase a bottle.....
