Italian Touch in West Lealman - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Wow. I mean....WOW. Great Italian mom & pop food. Decent price. Even the kind of overwhelmed Italian grandma waitress just sort of worked. Really good spot

Awesome little Italian restaurant hidden off the beaten path at the end of a strip plaza. The restaurants decor is cheeky old world Italian, almost stuck in a time warp from years past, but don't let that get ya down, you came for the food and that is where they shine. I picked the Carbonara, so creamy and tasty, just what I was looking for, dinner also comes with a little salad and bread... That bread OMG, it was incredible! We also got a pizza with sausage and pepperoni, the pie was excellent 👌. Service was good, not stellar but they only had one server on with a back server... For dinner service it would have been nice to have more attention then just the minimum effort. She was very nice, just too busy. I will be back soon.

Regular pizza reminds me of new york type pizza

Accidentally found this place by ordering online. It doesn't look as fancy outside as the big name places but the food is SO much better. Everything I've had here is amazing and the service was good when I finally went in. I doubt I'd have ever gone in if I hadn't ordered online first but I'd have been missing out. You won't go back to olive garden or carabas after this place.

Just great Food. The Homemade Rolls are so ridiculously good.

I loved it...I had the lunch special of lasagna, it was very good. Loved loved loved the bread! 5 stars there. The salad was iceberg lettuce which was a disappointment. My 2 other guests were not impressed with the sauce, which we all know is the heart of Italy. I will go back, don't think they will.

One of our family friends told us about Italian Touch and how amazing it is. I’m blown away over the quality and personal touch they put in every dish. I have dinned in and ordered take out. The service has always been top notch. If you are ever looking for something that tastes like mom made this is your place.

The service, atmosphere, quality of food, and price are exceptional.

The outside is not very inviting, it’s in. Run down strip mall. Inside atmosphere is a little dated. THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT! Made to order and worth the wait. The bread is made from scratch. Portions are really good sized, I usually take home tomorrow’s lunch.

This is by far my favorite Italian restaurant. It's a staple in our house. I highly recommend the baked manicotti.

Very accommodating, friendly service. Delicious hot fresh pizza!

My daughter is a lover of garlic knots and pasta and we weren’t sure where to go. This place did not disappoint! Atmosphere very family and the waitstaff was so nice. Food…perfect. All homemade, garlic knots tons of fresh garlic and cooked to perfection. Spaghetti and meat sauce for the kid, shrimp Alfredo for me, and baked cavatelli for my mom. Fantastic🤌

First time here, we ordered a pizza, I think it's the best pizza I've had in Florida. Can't wait to go back and try some of their Italian dishes.

Delicious!! Spaghetti and clams, and manicotti were fabulous. The bread is crusty and just how it's supposed to be. Will definitely be back when I visit town!!

Excellent food, service and value

The prices are very reasonable and the decor is very homey.Try the garlic knots-they are fantastic!👍👍

Fantastic restaurant with delicious food. Very nice owners. Great experience.

Damn good spaghetti and meatballs!

I recommend to everyone. Real local food Made in Italy Thank you so much, I felt at home!

The food here is excellent & abundant. I am italuan & from NY where the italian food is exceptional. This restaurant is right up there with them ! Excellent flavor and plentiful! I look forward to my next visit! Pizza looks great!!! Bravo!

Worst Italian restaurant I've ever gone to. Appetizer was soaked in more grease than I've ever seen, and otherwise had very little taste. Entrees were bland and unimpressive for the price. Service took forever, they messed up our order multiple times, and they were not remotely friendly. Avoid this place. Just go to Olive Garden, the free breadsticks have more flavor than this entire restaurant.

Great little Italian restaurant hidden in a plaza. Friendly service and delicious food. Had their lasagna which was the best I had since leaving New York. Definitely will be back!

Great Italian restaurant. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Very home style Italian food and the prices were very reasonable. Especially when you consider how good the food was and the large portions. I was told the chef makes the Alfredo sauce from scratch so I ordered the chicken Alfredo and was not let down. The next time I go I am going to try the baked gnocchi.

Vintage Italian cizy restaurant vibe. Great food. Lunch specials are great. I had the lasagna with a freshly baked bread roll.. Delicious. Prices are medium range. Great customer service. Family owned.

Ate there today! Absolutely delicious! Will surely return very, very soon!

We had a lovely birthday dinner here. Thank you!

Excellent chicken parm, side of meatballs, house dressing on salad, bread and perfectly cooked ziti.

I am so thankful for someone else making a post about this place. My absolute favorite restaurant was always a certain Italian place close to my old job. I remember always seeing miss Pina and Nico at work. I became addicted to their pasta, the meatballs and meat sauce in particular. When it changed hands it never tasted the same. And then when it closed a small part of me died. However, thanks to another’s post, I have been reunited with my favorite Italian family restaurant once again at Italian touch. The food was just like I remembered. Amazing. Super flavorful. Prepared with love. Manja familia!

Best eggplant parmesan I have had in 10 yrs. Small, cozy, local place with a great staff.

I have to honestly say this was the best meal I have ever had in my life. The food was fantastic. The service not so much. It was very very slow and we were there for almost two and a half hours. Also it's a very hot in the restaurant.

Of our party, only I am not well satisfied. I had mediocre meatballs with mediocre spaghetti. The ladies enjoyed the veal parm and the chicken parm. The decor is execrable. I've seen worse . . . nowhere. I can't think it ever looked good. My wife loves the place so we'll be back.

Not worth spending your hard earned money on. Extremely disappointed in the food. You may be able to fool people who are not Italian but why do that. Be proud and serve food that your own family will eat and enjoy. We left most of our food and instead of apologizing for the awful food they could have taken money off the bill since we left most of our food. Yes, they wanted to make something else for us but, at that point we didn’t trust that anything else would have been edible. Owners, be proud and make good Italian food!!!!

We love this little mom and pop restaurant! The food is TO DIE FOR. One of the best eggplant parmesans I have ever eaten! Hubby likes the sandwiches. The service is personal and friendly like you'd expect from a local hometown diner. Definitely my favorite Italian food around. Don't miss this one! ❤️

The food was horrible and the owner was extremely rude to us, and even threatened to call the police. It tasted like food was microwaved, not the way it should be prepared. Pasta was mushy. Don't waste your hard-earned money on this place.

This restaurant has to be the worst Italian restaurant. I have ever been to in my entire seventy years of life. The food was horrible, most of it was either frozen or microwaved. Not even good enough to bring home to your dog. No one should ever frequent this restaurant. It is a total waste of good money.

Great little place for Italian food. Service was great even though very busy. Food was excellent and bread products were delicious.

Italian touch is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. I always order the baked ziti and it’s exceptional. Great portion sizes and reasonable prices. Very flavorful and tastes great every time. The owners are personable and provide great customer service. Atmosphere in the restaurant is good, too. I’ve been a repeat customer for years now and am always satisfied.

Good food, service, location, quiet, been here numerous times and never disappointed....

I never ate there, but I gave 5 stars for the movie

As always, the entrées are delicious. Homemade from scratch, NEVER frozen or microwaved. The homemade Spaghetti sauce is, without a doubt, the best!!! Meatballs are tasty and melt in your mouth. Bread is homemade and served hot. This is the only Italian restaurant for me, not to mention their exceptional homemade pizzas, and hoagies.

Food is prepped as you order. Signs in the entry telling you this. Italian Food is not fast food.

Great place to eat. I always recommend it to out of town guest. The owner and his family work there. He's in the kitchen making amazing dishes, wife is always greeting you with a smil and making suggestions, bread is awesome made fresh daily. Do yourself a favor, Vai a mangiare, bere e divertirti!

The worst customer service I’ve ever experienced! The waitress seemed extremely bothered, we would be talking to her and she would just walk away from us while we were still talking. Their idea of fresh Parmesan is, in a Parmesan shaker. 🤣 couldn’t explain what the lemon desert was. Food was good, but off their customer service I’ll never be back.

Like being in Little Italy in NY. The food is awesome, and the staff is as well. Family run and what a great group of people. The only place we go for good Italian meals. !!!

We ordered a large pizza with pepperoni last night. The pizza was completely burnt The waitress/owner came over when we just got our pizza to ask if everything was okay We said ok Then we saw how burnt the pizza was We could only eat the top When she came over to ask if we wanted a box I said we couldn’t eat the pizza and I showed her how burnt it was She said “too late” Never even said I’m sorry Very poor customer service We will not be going back

Wonderful hidden gem. The food was 5 stars and decently priced. Highly recommend giving this place a try. It was a 30+ min. wait for two but we'll worth it, will absolutely go back!

Great foods d service. We went early and by the time we left people waiting for tables.

Food is excellent and nice and polite servers

Family owned, friendly, fantastic food , fair price, large portions

👋MAMA MIA 🤌THATS 5 STAR⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FOOD and SERVICE and The BEST PEOPLE 🧑‍🍳🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳👨‍🍳🙋🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️, MY GO2 for SICILIAN PIZZA PIE 🍕👍👍😎

From what I understand this is a multi-generation restaurant owning family and you can tell. The food is great. The dishes are spot on and even the pizza is great. One of the best pizzas around. It is not the fanciest place, but it is one of the most delicious Italian restaurants in the area.

Their Italian sub and baked ziti are fabulous. The rolls they serve with meals are some of the best you can get.

great place for a dinner date. family owned and run. the food was good and we left very full.

The service was very good. The food was so delicious.

Husband had scallop Alfredo, and I had spaghetti marinara with added mushrooms to sauce. Meals were delicious and atmosphere was quaint. Fresh Italian food made to order so it may take a little longer but well worth it. Out of the way place worth the find. Definitely will recommend

What a nice little local establishment that is not too expensive, but with delicious Italian food. Dine in and enjoy the casual atmosphere. Everyone was extremely nice and the Lasagne was amazing.

My new go-to place for great Italian food

Ate here several times always good used to dine also when they worked at Italia Mia

Best Homemade Italian Food in Tampa Bay ❣️❣️❣️❣️( next time I get food, I’ll post pics) We’ve eaten here many,many times & are never disappointed,always great food & great service!!!

A friend recommended this eating establishment. Enjoyed it very much.

This was my first time at Italian Touch. It was amazing! They have a new customer.Thanks Lora

Local favorite, the dishes are good with big portion. However, the pizza was just ok.

Awesome pizza and antipasto. Fresh, homemade dressing gonna be a regular go to.

Great Italian food Will definitely return

Absolutely delicious and very large portions. Lovely people, and they exceed your expectations

Went To Italian Touch With A Friend And I Never Been There And The Food And The Service Was Awesome And Plate Of Food Was Huge And I Will Tell My Friends And I Will Definitely Be Back. Always, Miguel Guzman

Wonderful family restaurant, excellent pizza

Pizza was amazing. Salad was tasty. I'm from New York and thin crust pizza was equal to up there. But let it set for a few minutes.

Great traditional Italian. Our fist time we dined in for spaghetti with meatballs and sausage and chicken marsala. Second time we order pizza to go. Good food all the way around. Outstanding service.

Always excellent service and food our #1 go to for Italian! 5 stars all day long!

Lunch specials pretty good. Ravioli was small amount. Lasagna very good and Stromboli was good.

It was delicious and worth the wait.

Italian Touch is an affordable place for authentic Italian dishes prepared by an Italian family. The selection is large. It’s likely everyone will leave full and happy!

Amazing catering service. Italia touch assisted in catering for over 330ppl . Food was amazing, delicious.. and plenty!! many compliments from guest. Delivery was ontime and hot. Price was reasonable. Thank you Flo and your staff for you great customer service. We will use you again and again !!!

Love their pizza! Their food is really good! If you can, I recommend you visit during the week. We were here on a Friday night in November and there was a 30 minute wait to be seated and every table is taken.

This was our first time going to this spot, we got take out. We got the Sicilian.. it was fantastic, we couldn’t stop eating it. Our kids loved it, my youngest gave it 9.5 and said it’s his new favorite. Best Sicilian around, can’t wait to dine in and try other dishes as well.

If you would like to waste your money, get the completely wrong and also have missing food from your order, then have to chase it down from neighbors apartments order from Italian Touch. If I could rate negative stars I would. You would have to pay me to eat here ever again. So many Italian restaurants in St. Pete, so I would recommend doing yourself a favor and find a better one- it’s not hard

Wonderful little restaurant and the best Italian I’ve found since living in NY. Prices are not bad for the large portions you get!

Linguine and white clams are to die for

Great place! Great food! This was our first time and it won't be our last. We ordered the veal marsala, the veal/eggplant combo, the seafood combination.

It's a small place in a small strip center. The service is decent not great. But the food is really good! Large portions and you definitely won't go home hungry.

Wow! Amazing food and service. Could not have asked for better. If you are in St Pete and miss this place it is your loss.

AC was not working very good. The food was excellent.

I love the food and the people are so nice.

Always so good, just tried the lemon cake. Not too sweet and very moist and yummy.

Pina & her Hubby are wonderful, I just love her, I feel like home. The food is fabulous

Great place, great food and a family atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic place Food was great Price was good 1 of the guys said that the chicken parmesan was the best he ever had I couldn't finish my lasagna and ricotta

These are some of the wonderful people from a long-time favorite place in St. Petersburg called Italia Mia

Sit down Italian food including pizza. Great bread. Takeout also available.

I LOVE THIS RESTURAUNT SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great place awesome staff and amazing food 10/10 highly recommend

Best Italian in St. Pete! The only thing that could make it better was if they delivered, but it's so good I'll drive the 30 min each way to pick up our Friday night pizza. The staff is great as well, always friendly & attentive. I love family owned places like this. If you haven't been yet, take this as your sign to go now!

Food is always a delicious, small, cute atmosphere.

Food was delicious. The Sicilian manicotti was out of this world! Service was excellent. I wished the dining area would have been cooler. I would go back weekly if I lived closer.

Freshly made and delicious. The rolls are somehow both crunchy and fluffy. All the pasta dishes were enjoyable. Their portions are generous.

Delicious , homemade and fresh!

This is real Italian food these people are right off the boat from Italy 10 times better than Olive Garden

I know a lot of people like this place. But i'm not going back. They served really big portions but the food was not good at all. Service was not bad but not good either.

Needs better ventilation as the heat from the kitchen came out into the dining area.
