The Vibe: Rome meets Istanbul in a family-friendly restaurant that serves Italian and Turkish standbys in the corner of a south Lakeland strip center. Expect subdued lighting, live music on weekends, and perhaps some Rat Pack-inspired piped-in tunes.
Finding It: 6645 S. Florida Ave. Suite 5 | Map
Good to Know: The owner’s Turkish heritage shows with a list of mezzes typical of Mediterranean countries.
Signature Dishes: Wood-fired pizza. It’s in the name, after all.
Service: There have been complaints about sloppy service online, but on our last visit experienced servers had returned and things went smoothly.
Menu online? Yes
Imbibing: A decent wine list with frequent specials on house wines. Domestics dominate the beer choices with a few crafts available.
Vegetarian/Gluten-Free Options: Many of the Italian and Turkish dishes are meat-free. Gluten-free pizza crust is available.
Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 4.30 pm to 10 pm; Saturday and Sunday, 11.30 am to 10 pm
