Mazzaro - Italian Restaurant Reviews

Eat before you go there. Once you get in the door. You'll end up buying everything you see. It's a awesome place. Love it

I love this place! The selection of prepared foods is outstanding, but the prepared food area is always crowded and slow. Brought home a pizza from my last visit, and it was out of this world! They have done a great job of reconfiguring the check-outs for social distancing, but i was disappointed that they did not enforce a mask requirement. This is a SMALL place, and masks should certainly be required. That's the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

Amazing Market...VERY RUDE STAFF! This place is fantastic in regards to the unique and wide range of food, wine, and coffee offerings...but i have little interest in going back...The management and staff don't just act irritated with their customers...They seem to have disdain for them! That's okay...there's plenty of markets that actually are HAPPY to have customers.

Unique place. If you want authentic food to make your next meal.

This place is an experience...if you haven't gone yet, please do.

Can't say enough good things about this place. My favorites are olive bar, hot Italian sandwich only 6 bucks and fresh mozzarella

A little slice of Italy, excellent food, everything is homemade, friendly staff, and excellent pricing

Best Italian bakery south of NYC.. And better than most in NYC... Always stop here when I'm in Fla. Lots of everything Italian. You need to put Mazzaros on your bucket list.

The only authentic and complete Italian market in Florida. We drive over from Cocoa, FL several times per year just to get the Tuscan bread from the bakery Delicious expresso bar, fresh pasta, deli, cheese bar, and fresh olives.

Fully Italian! Yummy food! Love the market too. Excellent!

Just picked up a large order for lunch and I had the most amazing employee helping me. I could not even leave the parking lot until I wrote a review. Jennifer from the deli is one amazing service oriented person. Not only was she helpful to me but she was the same with her own coworkers. You have a great person working for you.

I've been here a year ago amd I never remembered the name. I wish to return again really soon and thank Mr.Mazzaro himself for this market being a good memory in atine where life dealt me a not so great hand to play. I'd like to thank the wonderful chefs and bakers for an amazing meal and an amazing dessert to remember for a lifetime. I'm glad and grateful for the opportunity to experience all of those wonderful experiences and I'm eager to visit again. Thank You

Wonderful food made fresh and great staff. Have an Italian adventure and visit Mazzaro's. Don't forget the Fresh pastry.

Great but crowded. Bring your patience on a Saturday. Fantastic selection.

If your looking for Italian ingredients this is the place to go. Plenty of pastas, desserts & spirits.

Does this place really need any reviews. The place speaks for itself. I honestly think this is the best Italian market I ve ever been to.

Top 10 best places to eat/drink at in St. Petersburg. Great Italian food and atmosphere

So good that you will have to contend with a crowd to get served....but worth it.

Taking one star away for staff not being very friendly especially behind bread counter. Food is great and selection is awesome. There is a big parking problem that has not improved over the years.

Great food to bad there's some stuck up customers to ruin the experience

Words can not explain how great of a Italian market this place is. From the hot food made fresh to the bakery to gelatos

Really great find for amazing Italian deli type foods. Had antipasto, fresh delicious roll and almond biscotti for 16$ with drink. Will be returning to pick up a take home dinner meal, all kinds of selections.

Mamma mia! This is one of the finest Italian markets in the country. Whatever Italian food you want, they've got. And everything is delicious! Cannolis, different types of bread, rainbow cookies, cheesecake, eclairs, tiramisu, outstanding chicken parm, chicken marsala, lasagna, delicious salads, and fantastic soups.

Then there's the handmade pasta department, a butcher, a huge wine selection, plus a wide variety of hard-to-find gourmet cheeses.

But don't forget to grab a sandwich or three on the way out because they're phenomenal. They do catering as well, a lifesaver for hosting parties.

Best Italian market in Tampa bay. Lots of options for cheese, pasta, desserts, breads, etc. Great coffee bar inside.

BUT it's usually packed any time of day so be prepared

I have never had a bad experience here! It's super busy every time I visit, but I have to stop here for lunch whenever I'm in St. Pete!! Super delicious food, great coffee, great atmosphere! Good luck finding parking tho :-P

Awesome restaurant and Italian Market. Love this place! Check out their website to get more info.

Awesome as usual, Anthony and Giovanni are the best

Great italian market with an awesome gift shop next door. Usually crowded whenever you go. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Reminds me of a place in NY.

It's obvious by the throngs of people that this is a very special place for Italian food. Whether you want a deli sandwich or to buy pasta, meats or pastries, this place has it all and it's quite a spectacle. Today there were people from all over the world shopping, tasting and enjoying the food and flavors

I miss Mazzaro s since we moved away. Unique place with a world-class deli, grocery, coffee bar and desserts to die for. Will be on the list when we visit.

Great place for sandwiches at a great price! Any Italian stuff that you need they have it!

Just here to hop on the 5 star bandwagon. This place is awesome

Great sandwiches, fun things to shop for and friendly staff, great place.

Still one of the best store/deli/restaurant in St Petersburg

This is a must visit, unlike anything else in Florida !!!

I had read about this place and happened to be in Tampa, so I drove over here in St. Petersburg. I am so glad I did. This is a food's paradise. I read that they have 300 varieties of cheese, a wine room, meats, Italian specialties, an espresso bar, and in-house bakery, prepared foods, and so much more. Real quality here!! I wish I lived closer

A true old-fashioned Italian deli/grocery store! Plus a lot more!

My first visit to Mazzaro's. The Market looked great and they had a lot of business. I took a number at the deli and waited patiently for my number to be called they were on 88 and my number was 90. So much for numbers, they went right from 88 to 92 and when I asked why they skipped numbers his answer in a rude grumbling voice was "oh you must not have been ready". He had the opportunity to fix it right there and now but instead seem unconcerned and couldn't be bothered so I gave him my number back and walked out. My Wife can shop there if she wants but I will never spend a dime there.

Anyone from NY/NJ missing a great Italian grocery store and deli MUST come here. It's so good.

Now I can move to Florida. Italian import place like home in CT - even better.

A gem equally worth visiting as an outing and as a grocery run. The "Seeds and Grains" bread they bake every Tuesday and Thursday is the best bread I've ever eaten and their cheese room is outstanding. I also love getting lunch on the patio. Try the muffaletta!

Meh. This is a pretty cool experience to do at least once, although I'd never recommend bringing kids. The low shelves are so tempting for children and it's almost impossible to navigate with a stroller.
The bar has pretty good drinks (I've had coffee and hot chocolate for the kids). Just be prepared to be shuffled like a major cattle call and a soup Nazi atmosphere. The grocery part and fresh pasta is good. The sandwiches are just ok. I've had the hot Italian (soggy), Italian panini (needed something else so I used mustard), chicken parm, chicken Caesar wrap, Philly cheesesteak, and some sandwiches of the day (all meh).
I tried to buy some Greek cheese and it was expired by almost a year. When I went back to get another, I realized the whole stock was expired. However, I did feel transported to a different place and the staff is very passionate and professional.

Everything about this place is amazing. You have to go. HAVE TO.

Stay away! This place is the Sirens' Song of gourmet Italian food indulgence! You will find yourself crashed on the rocks of gluttony and weight gain!

Fantastic food, coffee, wine & cheese. If you are going for lunch give yourself plenty of time.

Awesome as always. Great lunch and lots of goodies brought home.

If you love food...or even if you like food...heck if you eat food you are going to love this place. It is quaint as a neighborhood specialty store with the hustle bustle of a New York City market. You can get prepared dishes to take home and heat up or you can have a sandwich made at the deli and eat in or on the cool patio. The most beautiful cuts of meat are available at the butcher's counter. The wine and cheese rooms (you heard that right) will keep you occupied for hours. And you can end the trip with a stop at the bakery and the espresso bar. Just take your time and enjoy the place. You will be glad you did.
In addition to all of that, the staff is helpful and friendly. I will be back again and again! Thanks, Mazzaro's!

It s been a few years since our last visit to Mazzaros. We traveled from the West Coast to FL. Mazzaros in St. Petersburg has become one of our highlights & we are so excited to shop & eat there tomorrow as well as introduce the market to our FL. resident, great nephew.

Great food and selection with a meat market, bakery and wine/cheese area.

It was too crowded, very uncomfortable shopping there

They have so many varieties of so many food items, but I love their bakery best..awesome!

One of the best specialty markets around with a huge selection!

Everything is good!!!! I will take one of everything.

BEST Italian market in Florida! Deli and bakery items are phenomenal!
