    I can’t believe we’ve lived in Tampa and haven’t been to timpano until last night. What a great restaurant! Food was great, service was great, atmosphere was great and everything is at a price point that won’t kill your wallet.

    Never experienced service so superb. One would expect a nice steakhouse to have good service but this was on another level. Staff was everywhere and constantly checking in. Steaks were amazing. My wife had the crab legs and they were spectacular as well. Loved the raw oysters as an appetizer and the corn and gnocchi sides were great.

    We had an amazing experience here on Friday Sept 13. We arrived a little later than our reservation but they accommodated us with no problem. Our server was extremely friendly and helpful. We ordered to gyro platters and it came with salad that was so big I almost got full just off of that. Our food also came with yummy Greek fries. I had so much food left over I was able to take it to work the next day. I use to come here all the time when I was younger so I’m glad our experience was just as good as it use to be. We will be back!
