Absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked steak and excellent service!I was extremely pleased with the slightly spicy Bada Bing shrimp appetizer, the house salad with gorgonzola (slight up charge) and the perfect 24oz Ribeye. The steak was cooked to perfection (Pittsburgh medium), juicy, tender and oh so tasty! It was cooked on a wood-fired grill and seasoned perfectly as well. There is nothing I could think of to make this a better experience.I opted for the Fettuccine with Marsala sauce that was flavorful and cooked perfectly as well (slight up charge, but worth it). Christian, our waiter, was attentive, helpful and delightful to deal with.Thank you, Iavarone's for being as good as you are and have been for many years. Next time I'm going for the 34oz Porterhouse. I'm sure it will be excellent.

My date and I arrived at 4:30 pm on a Saturday night-- slightly before the dinner rush. The restaurant was quiet and dimly lit creating the perfect ambiance. We sat in the bar area and it was quiet enough for us to freely converse with each other. Our server was attentive and responsive and kept everything nicely timed. We had drinks, appetizers and dinner. I got the bourbon salmon and it was just ok. My date got the filet medallions, and they were a lot better. The Bada-Bing shrimp is tasty and the house salad is a must do. Overall, it was a wonderful date night experience!

I haven't been to Iavarone's in years. The food was just as good as I remembered. The steak was cooked to temperature and juicy. The fettuccine Alfredo was delightful. The broccoli was tender and crispy without being mushy. The server was attentive without being annoying. He delivered our order perfectly even with a couple modifications.The ambiance was nice and at the time quiet as we went early in the evening. Though the longer we were there the louder and busier the restaurant became. If you want quiet I would recommend early reservations. We were able to get a same day reservation because of the early dinner time.

The moment I walked into this place, I was greeted by the most friendly people. I told them that this was a last-minute decision in apologize for the way that I was dressed. I was told that it was a great decision and come on in, and not worry about how we were dressed.This was a beautiful restaurant, just as you would expect dark and dimly lit so that you can enjoy the atmosphere.We were greeted by our server quickly, who gave us the specials and the regular menu and took our drink order. There were so many things on the menu that I had to give the waiter three things that I was wavering over, and he said that the special grouper was what he would've chosen. so I told him to make it so.The bread was so good and hot that I couldn't keep my hands out of it. I will say that the food took a long time to get, but it was worth it because the flavors were incredible.It was my birthday, and my favorite dessert of all time is bananas Foster. Not long after visiting the bathroom, I had this yummy dessert at our table with three candles in it, as there were three of us at the table.If you're looking for a cheap restaurant, this isn't it, you are paying for the quality of food that you're getting. I definitely recommend this place, and there was I know their birthday group setting up right next to us, so it was great to know. I was sharing this wonderful restaurant with another person with the same date as mine.Definitely recommend that you check this out, while I would consider it a higher end, fine dining establishment.

Things happen for a reason and that was so true this past Saturday when we were looking for a venue to enjoy a Father's Day Eve lite evening snack. When we called the preferred and local venue in Wesley Chapel, we were told the kitchen had issues and they would gladly serve us soup and salad only which was most definitely a deal breaker. Iavaronoe was a great choice.I ordered an Old Fashioned to prep the ol' palate for the upcoming culinary delights. I had to remember that I was in an Italian restaurant so when I ordered the 'French Onion Soup', I asked for the Onion Soup Au Gratin which was absolutely delicious. For my main course, I ordered the Rack Lamb with mint jelly, New Zealand Lamb, rye and clover fed which most definitely met my palate's approval. A simple side salad accompanied the lamb but did not steal the culinary experience.Our server was phenomenal and very attentive. I will return to Iavarone, indubitably.

My parents came for a visit and my dad had some foods he never tried but wanted to. One being escargot. It was amazing. I've always sworn by Charley's escargot but this was better. The lasagna and cod sandwich were also great. WillBe back to try steaks

The food was very good. The shrimp piccata app was tasty. The eggplant parm entree was by far one of the best. The veal piccata was also very good. We went on NYE and the sat us in the banquet room upstairs which only had a few tables and withers wasn't any real atmosphere. Had we been seated downstairs it would have been a vibe.

I had one of the best veal chops I have ever had in my life here. I'm still thinking about it right now..We had absolutely one of the best dinners of our lives here, we still talk about it. The salads were so fresh, if you would have thrown them up in the air, they would have turned into sunshine. The escargot & mussels were so incredibly insanely perfect they actually made us look younger. The mussels were even better than the escargot, if you can imagine that. (clutches pearls) OuiOui. However, when we ordered food to go to our hotel, things went horribly south with the lasagna being the worst thing, even worst, than mother in law hot tub night with bingo. But we still dream of that veal chop,with the fettuccine Alfredo side that was so amazeballs, we now compare every other fettuccine to it. Yeah, we still dream about that veal chop, moi most favorite fall dish...And you know what time it is? Still dreaming about that veal chop, i'm thinking about it right now with a side of fettuccine...Soon, it will be a surprise. For both of us. Will Return.

Well well well, where could I start, I will NEVER come back to this place again. First we got there, everything seemed ok and the host asked us if we preferred to stay in the first floor or the second which she said it was a nicer area for a romantic date night, it's what we had in mind so we chose to go to the second floor, when we got there it looked like it was a horror film and we were about to eat human meat, we tried to ignore the facts and stayed even though we didn't have much hope for the place. Everyone looked at us while entering and their faces said it all. We got there at 8:30pm and by 9:45pm our entree's were still not in the table, they took forever to bring anything to us, even water, the staff were very friendly but man, they sure took their sweet time. I don't recommend this place if you're hungry. Thanks for reading though lol I know it's a lot.
