Fusillo Pasta St. Pete

This is an outstanding new addition to Downtown St. Pete. While nestled in the EDGE District, you will be instantly transported to Italy. The owners, Alessandro Casali and Giangiacomo Greco, hail from Italy, and they have brought authentic and delectable dishes from the Old World. From my travels in Italy, I noticed that the pasta dishes are not too heavy and not over-sauced - Fusillo brings this same focus on ingredient integrity and simplicity to DTSP. This does not mean that the dishes are simple. During their grand opening, I thoroughly enjoyed the carbonara mezze maniche and the pesto Fusillo. I added burrata to the carbonara and shrimp to the pesto. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and not mushy. The carbonara was authentic Italian prepared with guanciale (not bacon, which

Super fresh pasta. Reminded me of Italy. They prepare it like in Italy to go style. We tried 3 fishers all superb.

Got a sneak peek at St. Pete’s newest spot on Central Ave and it’s such a great addition to the area. It’s a fast, casual Italian pasta spot with a simple menu — about six pasta favorites, all around $13–$15, and you can add toppings like shrimp, burrata, or chicken. I tried the Pomodorini & Burrata, the Cacio e Pepe, and the Amatriciana (which was my favorite). Everything was really flavorful and tasted fresh, and I like that the menu keeps it simple and focused. Overall, it’s a great place if you want good Italian pasta without a long wait. Perfect for a quick bite on Central Ave.

We had dinner in this cozy place and tried different dishes: simply exceptional! Fresh pasta, al dente cooking and amazing creamy sauce at the right point. The owners were very friendly and the prices were so low for the high quality offered. Absolutely recommended!

As an Italian, I’m usually very picky when it comes to Italian restaurants, especially pasta. But I have to say I was truly impressed by Fiolina. The pasta was absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail in every dish. It felt very authentic and reminded me of the kind of food you would enjoy in Italy. The atmosphere is beautiful and welcoming, and the service was friendly and professional. It’s the kind of place where you can have a relaxing dinner and really enjoy the experience. If you love real Italian food and great pasta, I highly recommend this restaurant. I will definitely be coming back!
