    Hands down the best Gyro I have ever had and it was huge! Hubby got the chicken fettuccine alfredo and he and I are both in agreement that their alfredo sauce is the best we've ever had. We have traveled all over the country and this is our new favorite restaurant. As another review said...this is definitely Tampa's hidden gem! Our server Nina was amazing and the kitchen staff definitely knows what they are doing. 10/10 would most definitely recommend!!

    My husband and I were looking for a place to eat after Busch Gardens. WOW! We are so glad we found this place. The Greek salad for one was super fresh and flavorful, and the fried fish sandwich was huge! We will definitely be returning soon!

    Great food and good service. Lots of great tasting food choices. The take out business seems quite robust and several people nearby commented on how they like this place. We were able to find a table as soon as we came in, sitting wherever we wanted to sit. R staff is friendly and helpful.

    Best place we have ate on our travels through Tampa. My husband and I come to Tampa every month and don't know why but never heard or been to Stefano's it's definitely a hidden Gem💎 honestly if I could I'd give 10 ⭐ I would the atmosphere is relaxing as if you were at your parents house for dinner, the staff is so nice and on top of everything I didn't once have to ask for a refill. The food was AMAZING! Hot and fresh. The prices are not bad at all and the portions are huge. This is our #1 place to eat from now on when we come to Tampa. You will not go wrong with eating here. I ordered the chicken Napolitan and my husband had the baked lasagna both were very delicious.

    If you are not super hungry, don’t come here! The food it’s not only extremely delicious, but the plates are huge. I ordered Salmón mimosa, this was the biggest salmon I ever had in my life! We all asked for doggie bags! Friendly service! Big tables. Good location. We discover this place on our way to an AirBNB. You won’t regret it!

    This place is absolutely delicious. Highlight for our family was the chicken alfredo, with a delicious creamy sauce. The chicken parmesan was really good, as well. Salad fresh and chicken & rice soup was delicious. The only item that could use some improvement, really, was the garlic bread, which seemed to be missing the garlic. Staff was friendly, as well, and place felt clean. Was a much better choice on our vacation than some normal chain. Will definitely come back if we're in the area. Heck, we might eat here in two nights before we leave :-)

    This is our families favorite restaurant. We have come here for many years with my parents. The food has always been very consistent and delicious! We love all the food they offer, and rice pudding is the best way to end the dinner.

    They make the best grill chicken salad, I highly recommend this item on the menu. They also have a salmon salad that's the bomb also. The salad could be enough for two people. I've never eaten all of it in one setting. The waitress was very friendly and restaurant appears to be clean.

    I've passed by this restaurant for years. A friend of mine invited me to dinner and I was blown away by the tasty food. Very affordable, homemade lasagna and spaghetti. I've been here twice in a week. Portion sizes is enough for 2 people. Very friendly staff. Tampa's hidden gem.

    Nice place for Greek and Italian food that isn't expensive. The staff are super kind and the service is amazing and really fast! We got our entrees within 10-15 minutes. The food tastes pretty good and they give huge portions.

    So first off, our waitress didn’t seem enthused. The place charged 1.95 to sub bland broccoli for French fries. Charged a dollar for sauce and never got said sauce. Also, was not informed that an extra dressing would be extra as well. The waitress didn’t pay the attention To us that she should of especially since the restraint was not busy at the time. Won’t be going back and it’s not because our food tasted bad. It didn’t. Just the service wasn’t great and the way they do business is shady.

    I got there pretty late almost closing time i didn't have anything problem being seated ordering my food. I didn't want to hold them up on cleaning and closing,so instead of staying i asked could i have it to go. They did a great job, we had the nicest waitress. Very welcoming,and a tentative. Definitely worth another trip.

  • 5/5 Angeline C. 3 years ago on Google
    Good customer service, great food, large portions and both menus are worth a try! I found the prices very good compared to other similar restaurants I have visited.

    Great Greek salad!! I forgot to take a photo, it looked so good...I just started eating. The homemade chicken and rice soup was very good, as well.

  • 5/5 The M. 3 years ago on Google
    Great atmosphere in the mural room! Amazing service 👍 but phenomenal authentic food full of flavor and love! We have lived nearby for years and tonight's first time has made us customers for the future for sure! So happy to see a mom and pop restaurant survive so beautifully in standards in these times now a days! We will be back with smiles for sure! Thank you for making my mom and daughters birthdays a memory of joy and jubalee! We will be telling everyone near about this jem in Temple Terrace for sure!

  • 5/5 Melissa P. 6 months ago on Google
    I love the diner atmosphere and the continuity of the very capable waitstaff. But the lemon 🍋 chicken entree is the reason for my review. I’ve never seen this option before (menus were recently updated —yeah), but now that I’ve had it? We’ll be visiting more frequently. The chicken was tender and succulent. Perfectly seasoned (with real spices, not dried), cooked and served with carrots, onions and celery. Served with Greek lemon potatoes (real potatoes), bread and a soup or salad. This entree does not have the flavor profile or texture of typical restaurant fare. It’s a delicious, *homemade* meal. I’ll grab a pic on our next visit. See you there ;()

  • 5/5 Amy C. 8 months ago on Google
    Such a gem! Food was so delicious and fresh! The service was fantastic! Gyro salad and Shrimp Alfredo. Took home baklava 💃🏼

  • 5/5 Elizabeth M. 8 months ago on Google
    I'm sorry I didn't take photos of the food when it arrived because it was wow delicious. My plate ate 3 of us, my two children and I, and my husband's food was enough. The risotto was delicious and my chicken Alfredo pasta was beyond belief.

  • 5/5 Albert O. 11 months ago on Google
    One of the great local gems. Family style food, reasonably priced outstanding flavor.

  • 5/5 Ms & Mr R. 2 years ago on Google
    Always order take out from here while I’m at work. Always on time like they say, food is always delicious and they are very accommodating for those of us who don’t eat meat. 10/10 on anything I’ve ever gotten from them. The Greek for 1 is amazing with no ham. That’s my other go too.

  • 5/5 Blue D. 2 years ago on Google
    Such amazing food! It was definitely the best Italian cuisine I've had in the bay area. I had one of the specials, the Scampi Seafood Trio, it had a large piece of grouper on top with 6 large scallops and 6 good sized shrimp. The whole thing was big enough to feed 2 people. My wife got the Chicken Napolitan, it had 2 large chicken brest pieces and large pieces of artichokes and mushrooms. We will most certainly be back!

  • 4/5 Fred K. 2 years ago on Google
    I have eaten here four times in the last 3 weeks in groups of 5 to 12 people. Food and service were good. My favorites so far in those visits were their eggplant sub and the gyro salad with homemade tzatziki sauce. I also had a meatball sub and a sausage sandwich. They were good, but in my opinion, they could have used a little more sauce. Eggplant was the best I've had in a long time.

  • 5/5 Kellie M. 1 year ago on Google
    Stefano's is a very nice and QUIET restaurant. At times, I really enjoy having a quiet meal without TVs on every wall and large groups of people cheering on their hometown team. These are all great fun thing but when you just want a quiet meal with someone special or your family this is a great place. The food is great here and generous size servings. In fact most times that I have been here I have shared a meal and had plenty. I have tried several of their dishes but tend to stick to their Greek Salad and Chicken Parmesan. The salads are always so fresh and their dressing is light and tasty. There is actually chicken in the sandwich; the plate they serve you looks like the picture. It feels like a friendly local restaurant.

  • 5/5 Vladimir D. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow Rita is amazing and the food portions are incredible for the price. I love when your order a flaming cheese they say OPA! Unique and awesome experience! Will definitely be back!

  • 5/5 Jeremy H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great family restaurant, good Greek food, reasonable prices, huge portions. We had the mozzarella sticks, lemon chicken and chicken and rice soups, and gyros. Everything was great. We saw people who ordered the Italian food meals and one meal looked like it could feed 3 people.

  • 3/5 Alex Santa M. 1 year ago on Google
    A run of the mill restaurant with a big menu and ok flavor. The portion sizes are huge, so you'll probably get two meals out of it at the very least.

  • 5/5 JoAnn S. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was very good...prices were excellent for the amount of food you received. Only thing was that service a little slow. Was done with 3/4 of my meal before the waitress came over to refill our drinks. We had eggplant parm, chicken parm, and veal parm.

  • 5/5 Paula R. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are looking for decent prices, lots of food - two portions in each plate - and good food..then you should head to this restaurant. It’s a small mom and pops with good costumer service. When you enter the restaurant you have the feeling than most people coming to this place are regulars. I ordered the Chicken Florentine with squash and my son ordered the chicken Parmesan…both were very good! Oh and the chicken soup it’s very tasty as well… Just one little thing you need to have in consideration when going to this restaurant: bring a sweater! The A/C on is full blast!

  • 5/5 Daniel D. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Raysa F. 3 years ago on Google
    Good food and nice pepole i will go back again

  • 3/5 Terry L. H. 3 years ago on Google
    Food here is really good. That's were it stops. Call a to go order in, and your told it will take 20 minutes to prepare. Show up after 20 minutes, and the food you order is still not ready, After waiting 45 minutes for salads the food finally arrives, now you have to hurry, because you have to go back to work! Not sure why it takes 45 minutes to make a grilled shrimp salad, especially now with COVID-19 restaurant shut down. The place has more restaurant staff, then they have waiting customers. Too bad, like I said the food is good, but staff doesn't have the sense urgency on food delivery. That's ok, I'm done with the place! I'll find another establishment to buy food for lunch.

  • 5/5 John K. 3 years ago on Google

    Amazing fresh ingredients. Superior flavors, simple yet complex eating. I loved everything starting with the hearty, hot, and delicious chicken and rice soup. I slurped down every last drop. Not just because I was starving. The mini Greek salad is to die for. The lettuce crisp, tomatoes sweet, crunchy cucumber, tons of feta cheese and potato salad. Not to mention a homemade dressing you can't get enough of. I decided to go with the moussaka. I couldn't have been happier with the taste, texture, and amazing squash they served on the side. So many layers of delicious. Each just mending together like beautiful music. My boyfriend got the New York strip, with greek lemon potatoes. And they have such a tangy, delightful kick. Super cute inside, with wonderful wait staff. Cannot say enough good things about this greek Italian eatery. I love it. I am very eager to return. Do yourself a favor, go there immediately 😁😁😁.
