Here are a couple of the google reviews below:
the honest critic - 5/5 stars - Jun 8, 2011
It is much much better then the last owners, the quality of the food alone is outstanding. I was afraid to come back after my last encounter with the stale, to be nice, food and the horrible service but my family and I gave it another shot, as it had a new name, & I am so glad we all are. Fresh food is the key to happy returning customers, and well be back for sure.
Liked: Food, Service, Atmosphere, Value, Both the food and atmosphere are awesome
Darren - 5/5 stars - Jun 6, 2011
Our third visit over the past few months. On every visit, the service has been superior, the food delicious and the value amazing! This is truly a world-class restaurant. Tonight our waiter entertained our 5-year old – teaching her to fold beautiful napkin place settings while my wife and I enjoyed our delicious meal.
Liked: Food, Service, Atmosphere, Value
Grazie!

The Double Hour, Italian film in Tampa
Playing now through June 23rd (Thurs)
THE DOUBLE HOUR
A Romance. A Robbery. A Mystery.
“It's a wild tale that's so full of surprises, reversals and double-jointed plot twists that you wouldn't think there'd be room for anything else. But there is.” - Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
"The more you try to solve the narrative puzzle, the more you may want to watch it again - or at least argue about what's real." - Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
"I've seen the fabulously acted Italian thriller The Double Hour twice now, and for all its intricate manipulations, it stays with me for a very simple reason: The love story at its bittersweet heart is played for keeps." - Michael Phillips, The Chicago Tribune
Guido (Filippo Timi), a former cop, is a luckless veteran of the speed-dating scene in Turin. But, much to his surprise, he meets Slovenian immigrant Sonia (Ksenia Rappoport), a chambermaid at a high-end hotel. The two hit it off, and a passionate romance develops. After they leave the city for a romantic getaway in the country, things suddenly take a dark turn. As Sonia's murky past resurfaces, her reality starts to crumble. Everything in her life begins to change - - questions arise and answers only arrive through a continuous twist and turn of events keeping viewers on edge until the film's final moments.
