    First time customer, very good overall. Nice flavor in both the meatballs and the Lasagna, the quality of the meats were evident. My pasta dish with sausage was a bit salty but cooked perfectly and delicious. Good vibe and nice servers. I will return.

    Sat outside in nice weather. Service great. Outdoor singer/music too loud and she was flat at times. Have gluten free offerings. My sea bass boring, tasteless and a bit overcooked. Salad mediocre. Wife's and son's pasta was very good but his overpriced. Would not recommend.

    Was not really authentic Italian food. The chicken dish seemed like boiled chicken.

    Soul Sicilian FusionResponded on May 23, 2023Buongiorno, le assicuro che la cucina è assolutamente italiana, io sono lo chef è sono italiano al 100%. Il fatto che non le sia piaciuto il pollo cotto a bassa temperatura nel "Sous Vide" mi dispiace, cosi come mi dispiace il fatto che per un solo elemento del menù lei sia arrivata a queste conclusioni. La ringraziamo comunque per il tempo che ha dedicato nello scrivere la sua recensione e la invitiamo a provare qualcos'altro magari può cambiare idea.

    Jose was our waiter! Amazingly, the staff would come to see how things were constantly and were very accommodating. We came for Mothers Day, and my wife and her mother were beyond pleased. We had our 3 year old daughter and a newborn, and they were very attentive to their needs as well! The food was amazing, the place looked great, and the service was top notch. This has become our favorite place. Appetizers, pizza, steak, pasta, dessert, wine… I already miss it! Thank you!!!

    We have eaten at Soul Sicilian Fusion several times and never disappointed! Our guests had the Branzino whole fish special and lobster pappardelle special and we had the orecchiette with sausage and linguine with tiger shrimp specials, all were amazing. The regular menu is great, and the specials of the day add extra options. Excellent quality of food. Great service, both indoor and outdoor dining are good options. The restaurant is small, but nicely decorated and quiet enough to enjoy conversation with your friends.

    Overall our experience was good. The service was excellent. The atmosphere was very nice. I had the eggplant parm for an appetizer and it was good. I ordered the branzino and my wife had the pappardelle with lobster. The branzino unfortunately was the smallest branzino I’ve ever seen. But that may have been reflective of the price. I would have paid more for a larger fish. It was overcooked and dry. The light greens and tomato salad that was on the plate made the fish palatable with each bite. My wife’s lobster was frozen lobster. It was grainy and not very good. Quite a disappointment overall. This was our second time dining here and we went back because we enjoyed it last year so much. Not likely to return.

    The restaurant is on Cleveland St. in Downtown Clearwater. I originally made arrangements to sit inside, not being sure if outside seating was shaded or not. The place was clean. VERY clean. The cleaning chemicals used were so strong my friend walked out to get some air. So, we asked if we could be seated outside instead. That was a very good decision. It was a lovely evening, and we could hear music in the distance. The waiter was very nice, but not knowledgeable about the wine offerings. Complimentary Bruschetta served as an amuse bouche. No other bread..at an Italian inspired restaurant? He said the pasta was freshly made. My friend had the carbonara, I had clams. Surprising, the clams (while mini) were very fresh. That's all I can say. The food was... blah. It tasted like...nothing. We waited forever to get some of the sliced bruschetta pieces to eat with our pasta, and a spoon, and some grated parmesan (from a cold shaker - not freshly grated??). By then our food was cold. The wine was good, the atmosphere was great, the staff attitudes were lovely. I would go again just for those reasons, but stick with a charcuterie tray and wine. Maybe some of those cream puffs. It seemed to me like a family run restaurant trying to serve elevated Italian dishes without the proper experience of how they should really be served. Not a good idea when one of the diners grew up on Long Island. heh heh.... Needs some work. Hopefully they can fix the food and become an outstanding restaurant in a much needed downtown renaissance.

    Soul Sicilian Fusion was incredible! We booked a reservation at this place to celebrate my sister’s birthday! We arrived a little later than our reservation because of the traffic, but the staff + Jose our waiter, was very accommodating & provided excellent service to us. The food flavoring was delicious and the pasta was so fresh! We were the last to leave the establishment & the staff was celebrating a birthday too! It ended up being one big party. We met with Natalya & Nello, owners, who were very sweet and welcoming. I will definitely be going back to this place & it highly recommended.

    Food excellent but I was surprised that there was no Caesar salad and no muscles on the menu. Wait staff was very attentive but thick accents and loud background noise made it very difficult to understand them. The linguini with clams was very good. Don’t expect to find west coast wines on the menu. Most all wines were Italian but a good selection of those. And some French wines as well. I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends. Lastly prices are very reasonable.

    Soul Sicilian Fusion was a delightful surprise. We made reservations the same day we were dining and were lucky to secure a table at prime time. All food was delicious and very reasonably priced. The artistic presentation of each dish was more than expected for a small casual place. The waitress was very attentive.

    Had high hopes for a nice Italian dinner with my wife and mother, while visiting Clearwater. I chose this restaurant solely because it had grilled swordfish on the menu, which I ordered. The first bite tasted extremely fishy and unfresh. I then tried the other side of the fillet and it was passably edible until I got within 2 inches of the bad side and had to let the waitress know that it was the worst swordfish I've ever been served. My wife had the grouper and said it was bland. My mother ordered the ribeye medium-rare and it came out raw, so she asked the busser/server for the kitchen to put it back on the fire to medium-rare. He returned and said the chef said that this was medium-rare and did she want it well done-- we argued/explained and it finally came back medium-rare. The ONLY dish that was delicious was a prosciutto "pinsa", an oval Roman style pizza, which I had ordered for the table as an appetizer. At least, upon request, they did not charge for the fishy swordfish.

    The waitress staff provide excellent service, The restaurant is located in a street on development, the ambient it is a little bit loudly outside, location still being prime. Fresh and at the bottom line with the Boloñesa pasta 🍝 and Burrata prosciutto!, Great to share a wine 🍷 outside and cheers with music and friends.

    the food was good, but the service was lacking. after we were sat at the bar for dinner, someone came by to give us glasses of water. then we sat there for about 7 to 8 minutes. I finally had to interrupt the bar staff to ask them foe a menu. we quickly ordered the appetizer but told to come back so we could order entrees. we put our menus down, a runner brought the caprese salad appetizer in about 5 minutes. as we were finishing the salad, I again had to interrupt the bartenders to get them to take our dinner orders.

    The food was excellent, authentic Italian inspired plates. The sea bass encrusted in almonds was superb. The burrata was very fresh and creamy. It is a very small restaurant, so it was a little loud because it was crowded. Though when your food is that good, it is going to be crowded! The service was great. A very enjoyable dinner… don’t forget to finish your night with some limoncello!
