Ordered on MobileMeals.com. Right on time, we received our lunches. Seriously, the best Reuben I've ever had! I can't wait to have it again! (of course I ordered extra kraut and sauce). Potato salad and broccoli salad were both delicious also. The lil fruit cup was so sweet n yummy. LOVE IT!! Glad I decided to "try" Della's!

Weâve been looking for a true deepdish pizza in this area. We found it. The service was great and the pizza was reasonably priced. We ordered a supreme. I will say the pie needed more meat and the crust was slightly burnt. It hit the spot though. We will revisit.

I can't believe I waited this long to try their pizza. I was turned on to this place by a coworker/friend who lives in Tampa. I'm not sure how she heard of this place, but she raves about the authenticity. She brought me a take out order of pepperoni pizza, garlic knots, and a cannoli (for dessert). I've been getting delivery (through Mobile Meals) from them ever since that day. It appears to be the closest to a NY/NJ style pizza in this area. The crust is crispy, yet soft on the inside. The sauce is very simple and light. It even has bits of tomato in it, which makes it taste so fresh. It's definitely homemade. You don't even have to order extra cheese. My mother did that one time, and they gave us more than enough cheese (almost too much). I've since had the Italiana pizza which is a white pizza with garlic, tomato, spinach, mozzarella, and ricotta cheese. There was lots of that ricotta/mozzarella mixture oozing out with every bite. This is a true winner!I'm also a big fan of their cannoli. The outer shell is fresh & crunchy, not chewy to the point of almost being stale. The filling appears to be piped into the shell at the time you order it. They also drizzle some Nutella on top of it. It's the perfect ending. They also make Zeppole (a fried dough sprinkled with powder sugar), which I plan to order next time.The only negative thing that I can think of is that the pizza is more expensive than it's competitors. It's worth it in my opinion. Even my mother (who was raised in the Bronx) loves this pizza, and would rather pay the extra fee for Mobile Meals to deliver it. We're hooked. I'm looking forward to trying more things on their menu (including their classic Italian pasta dishes).

After I moved back to Tampa area this was one of my first meals. Lol. Now they have take and bake and I love smelling babes in my home. Great sauce, no other double decker is like this and no other pizza is as unique as this in Bay Area.

It's been more than three years since I've eaten at Carrabba's. We arrived this past Thursday just be fore 6pm and were promptly seated. The restaurant was maybe half full at the time, but they seemed to get busier as the evening progressed.Their "happy hour" house wine was 9oz for the price of 6oz ($7). I started with a cup of their minestrone soup, which was delicious. They serve a basket of bread, but I must say, I was disappointed, as it just seemed to be a small loaf of white bread. The bread was not warm, and it certainly was not Italian.My wife had their Pollo Rosa Maria chicken dinner with asparagus AND broccoli which she loved. I had their Veal Marsala with broccoli. It was good, but not great. It was supposed to come with mushrooms, but if there were any in the marsala sauce, they had all disappeared.It was an enjoyable night out, and our waitress Heather was a gem! Our bill came to $56 before tip.

There is some confusion about the address of this excellent restaurant -- in fact it is 906 W. Robertson Street, Brandon, FL 33511. But that is the only problem with this place -- the lasagna and chicken parmesan that my wife and I had were both superb, big portions, well cooked, tasty, and the servers were a joy to watch as they effortlessly served all tables quickly and efficiently, without hovering. We would certainly go back if we were in the area again.

Had the two course, all you can eat salad and a shrimp pasta bowl. Both were delicious, serving sizes were perfect and the price was right. What more could one ask? The service was good with time to enjoy each course before the next one was served. Friendly waitress with a nice smile and they were very very busy, but she kept smiling and was there when I needed her. Nice lunch!

Authentic Italian cuisine specializing in Northern and Southern Italian dishes. Only Italian restaurant independently owned in the area.
Reviewed By kweilbacher2010
I'm ashamed to say that it's been almost 18 moths since we last visited Allegria's for dinner. But as it's our 46th wedding anniversary, it was time to get back there this past Saturday evening. We were almost ashamed to tell Vito (the manager) that it had been that long.I called to make reservations that same day, and Jennifer was excited to book us. And when we showed up, she greeted us personally. One recommendation I would make to others is, if at all possible get the table in the far corner. Why? We find we can hear each other a bit better there, since everyone else in the restaurant is enjoying themselves, and lot's of conversations in the area. Not a bad thing.Nancy was our waitress. We started with ordering the most delicious Bruschetta Toscana. Even our daughter, who never eats tomatoes, ate hers quickly! I swear, it was almost better than dessert.They brought out a basket of their wonderful warm bread. My wife had their Gnocchi Bolognese (more than she could eat!). My daughter had their Chicken Parmigiana. I had their steak special - 10oz strip steak with ravioli stuffed with mushrooms. Mushrooms were excellent. My steak was cooked perfectly; a little gristle, but just a little.For dessert, we had their rainbow (Italian flag colors) cake.One helpful hint: please do not come here thinking that you will have a rushed dinner. My understanding is that everything is cooked and prepared when ordered. So have yourself a glass of wine and enjoy.A second helpful hint: brush up on your Italian. Vito will love you for it!The bill for the three of us, including wine, tea and coffee was $100 before tip.
