Calusa pizza is amazing! Love their variety of pasta because they're good for picky eaters like myself but still so tasty. And obviously their pizzas are to die for. Classic and well done.

Disappointing meal. Ordered through Uber Eats delivery. Chief pizza was ok, pepperoni pizza was better. The Greek salad was a joke and meatballs weren't much better. I love supporting local places instead of chains but I won't be eating here again.

I only write reviews immediately after visiting a business for 2 reasons: if the food and / or service is exceptional and secondly, if the service is sub-par. As you can tell with the star distribution, it's the latter reason for this review. In actuality, the service and food were good. It was the management that fell short. Despite having to wait 10 minutes to have a server greet us, Alexandra was very apologetic and took good care of us afterward. They have a good variety of beers on tap, and their Calusa house is a nice crisp pale aie. The featured soup, a lobster bisque, is mediocre, but I'm glad I ordered it to appease my hunger while waiting an unreasonable amount of time for a pizza. Sadly, once the pizza came out, it was made incorrectly, and I had to wait yet an even longer amount of time. Again, our server expressed her apologies many times. What surprised me was the manager's lack of attention to the mishap. I watched him sit and chat with what seemed to be friends of his at a nearby table for at least a good ten minutes. (Yes, I timed it because I was timing how much longer it was going to take my pizza to come out. ) He finally came over after my pizza came out to apologize. (I venture to assume my glaring stares might have had something to do with it.)The pizza was delicious. It had an even distribution of toppings, and the crust was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Even their complimentary garlic knots were delicious and had the same texture as the pizza crust. I ordered a cannoli to go since I had already seen 4 tables come and go while I was there. It was, in the words of my 7 year old dinner date (my daughter with a sophisticated palate for her age), "meh." Good pizza. Good beer. But I'll stick to Mama B's in Wesley Chapel, where Mama B herself visits each table to ensure all is well. Calusa obviously doesn't need my patronage if they have time to chat with friends on a busy Saturday night.

Food and service were great. Loved the food and pizza was yummy. The mozzarella were more like nuggets and not sticks and I liked that. The servers were nice and took really good care of us. The restaurant is pretty basic in setup but it was clean and organized. This was our first time there so we were leased with everything. If I am in the area again and in the need of some food I would definitely eat there again.

Important note: menu prices are higher if ordering takeout through Yelp! When I saw the almost $3.00 markup on my planned pasta purchase via Yelp, I decided to go in and order in person. You could also call the order in to get regular menu prices. I guess there is a price to pay for convenience! In any event, my pasta order (Tortellini Bolognese) was ready much faster than the Yelp system projected if ordering online. Within 10 minutes I was in and out with a very hot box! And the tortellini was DELICIOUS! It was a huge portion which made it absolutely worth the price! Looking forward to checking out their pizza soon!

Average pizza. Dough/bread has no crunch not even on the crust...how do you not even get a crunch out of crust??!! I've had better pizza at pizza hut this is average at best. Not sure why the reviews are so high lol

Awesome pizza night on National Pizza Day, but the mussels are the best. My kids also love the chicken wings, the calamari, and the spaghetti with meatballs.

I can't thank the Team enough. This is the 2nd year in a row that I called last minute and asked for 2 heart shaped pizzas for my boys. They were perfect!

Passed by after work while in the area and decided to give this place a try. Excellent service and food. We enjoyed the fried mozzarella appetizer which was plenty enough to share between two people. I had the classic calzone with added toppings and it was fantastic. I was stuffed and barely got through half of it so definitely enough for two meals. Worth the visit for sure!

Calusa is a good pizza place especially for Florida's standards and it is likely the best option for pizza in Carrollwood. I tried a large cheese pizza and it had good flavor. I would definitely try it again if I'm that part of town. The staff members are super friendly. The restaurant is nestled in the corner of a shopping plaza. They have indoor seating as well as bar seating.Definitely check it out.
