Had the pleasure of celebrating my 24th anniversary with my wife. Our server was fantastic. The food was good. I had a fancy drink and I really enjoyed it. I shouldn't wait till my next anniversary to go back there because there's so many things on the menu that just looks so good. I don't usually do reviews but I'll happily do one because everything was great. I hope you get a chance to enjoy this place.

We had a wonderful night out with friends. Our server Kat was incredibly knowledgeable, made fantastic menu recommendations, and was attentive without being intrusive. We started with the mozzarella bread and marinara, and nice simple starter. The calamari was perfectly fried, and the diavolo sauce was just spicy enough. The garden salad was… fine. I’m not sure if I would get the house dressing again. But the entrees…. I had the Risotto Beef Castrioti topped with the Shrimp Oscar. The beef was fork tender, a perfect medium rare, and was so flavorful. The combination of the mushroom risotto and the shrimp Oscar sauce was so good, words fail. DH had the chicken scallopini piccata, and was very tender. The side of Alfredo fettuccine was incredibly rich and paired well with the piccata sauce. I also had the Italian 61 cocktail which was perfect for a hot summer night. We finished with the crime brûlée and the mint chocolate gelato. We’ve heard about this place for years, and never made the trek out to Lakeland to try it. Worth the drive, worth the calories. Great value for portion size. Looking forward to our next visit!

This is an excellent choice for Italian food. The calamari is the best I’ve ever had and I’ve had a lot at many high in end restaurants. Service is always spot on. Shout out to Carter, Elena, and Andrew. Best of the best! The manager always stops by the table to verify food and service!!!!! Treat yourself to a fabulous meal!!!!

The Risotto Beef Castrioti is our go-to every time we are at Villa Castrioti Lakeland. The quality is spot-on every single time. Last night the air conditioner was a bit much in the dining room. We saw other tables donning their sweaters during dinner. Overall it was a very pleasant experience with a cozy setting.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience on Friday, June 20. Our server was Alaina. She was knowledgeable about menu items and extremely engaging, personable, and entertaining. The food and drinks were delicious and of course, service was excellent. Because of Alaina’s top notch customer service, I will definitely return.
