Fell in Love with Bernini – Tonight I fell in love with Bernini in Ybor. I have dined in restaurants in Europe from Paris to Lisbon but those dinners had nothing over Bernini of Ybor in terms of quality, food, service and surroundings. My dining partners enjoyed, and I mean enjoyed, Lemon Pepper Scented Flash Fried Calamari, a menu of tempting Pastas and Entrees while I settled into the finest Atlantic Salmon I have ever tasted. Being from California, I have enjoyed salmon many ways but I must commend the talented Executive ... read more

Love, love, LOVE Bernini! – My fiance and I visited Tampa for a week between Christmas and New Years. We ate at Bernini the first second night we were in town, and we loved it so much that we went back again before we left. The food was amazing (I HIGHLY recommend Jason's Favorite), the staff was friendly and knowledgable, and the atmosphere can't be beat. We arrived relatively late for dinner one night, and the staff was so, so nice about allowing us to stay until well after close. One of the owners even visited our table t... read more

great pizza, comfortable – This place has fantastic pizzas!! Try the New Yorker. Calamari was good, too, and dining room was tight but comfortable. Great night out, right in the center of activity in Ybor on weekend night.

Great Night Out in Ybor – We recently had family visit Tampa and we had heard good things about Bernini from friends, so decided to wine and dine the fam on last night.It was fantastic.We loved the look of the place right off, from the marquee on the side of the building to the insect-like door handles you have to see to appreciate. They sat us in plain view of the kitchen, with a great view of their giant, clay pizza oven, and we actually got to watch the chefs prepare the meals.The place has a really unique look, with gian... read more

Very Sick Girlfriend, Dissappointing Management, horrible Valentines day – I had gone to Bernini's for valentines day. It was nice and there were very few people (it was a thursday night); It looked like the tables and chairs were crammed in there, I can't imagine what it would be like if the place was full. I was surprised at how slow the service was despite the emptiness. The food was fine, probably over priced, but ok. Everything was acceptable until my girlfriend and I got home. Within a couple hours we both were sick. B... read more

Pretty...Pretty...Pretty Good – Nice surprise to the typical Italian food one finds in the greater Tampa area. Very good service and food won't disappoint. Was a bit noisy when I was there, if you are taking clients for a meal ask to be seated in the balcony or in a corner.

Bernini – The restaurant was very noisy. It was hard to hear conversations at your own table. Service was adequate but not exceptional for the prices of the meals. Although the salads were average, the entrees were not palatable. The dishes were dried out or undercooked and lacked seasoning.

A stylish Italian restaurant in the rich, marbled setting of the old Ybor City Bank building. – The Scene Located in the marbled former home of Ybor City Bank, Bernini's is high-end in every way, from the prices to the food. Be prepared for the sometimes snooty, albeit pampering, service. Give the food a taste and you'll more than likely forget the holier-than-thou attitude of the waiter. The Food Start with the crispy, fried calamari, scented with lemon pepper and served with three different sauces. Then try the Mandarin or... read more
