If you're tempted to pre-judge the food by the exterior, you may miss a first-rate dining experience. This strip mall eatery has a creative and envelope-pushing menu of familiar items such as pizza and pasta but with subtle touches that… Read Full Editorial
Great Lunch! by CSMobileUser2 via Citysearch on 5/4/2009
I had an amazing Balsamic Salmon for lunch. Price was very reasonable.
Not worth hype by Zaxis via Citysearch on 1/9/2009
Went for special occasion. Table not ready. My duck was dry and companion's dish lukewarm.\r
Two of wines requested not available. Nice atmosphere, but waiter was disappointing.
I don't see what all the fuss is about by sabrina9 via Citysearch on 7/10/2008
Having read many reviews praising this restaurant my husband and I went here for lunch a while back. We had crabcakes for an appetizer. This may be our personal taste but they were so overly fishy it was difficult to eat them. He had a…
Overall Great experience and a special place to experience food by mifisher01 via Citysearch on 2/6/2007
We have been to Cafe Ponte several times and have always had great service. The quality and uniqueness of the food is something you do not find in the Tampa Bay area. Waitstaff is great and the different dishes are phenomenal. We take…
Best restaurant in the Bay area, period, no contest! by m_atteniese via Citysearch on 6/26/2006
We found this place a couple of years back and it's our go to restaurant for any special occoasion. We celebrated our first anniversary last Saturday, and it was just phenominal. They had the table covered with rose pedals! Nice touch, but…
Who knew you could find this in Tampa Bay? by wandering_foodie via Citysearch on 4/15/2006
Foodie paradise from the focaccia with tapenade and European-style butter to the surprise demitasse to the fig/prosciutto tart to the perfectly prepared Ahi tuna to the just light enough lemongrass panna cotta. Absolutely exceeded my…
Over rated by northwinthrop via Citysearch on 9/15/2005
Booked well in advance requesting 'discreet' table. Got there, table wasn't ready. Finally seated nearest a bar area and what looked like a service prep area. So overcrowded, patrons (and waiters) had to bump our seating to get in or…
very disappointing meal at Cafe Ponte by redgrouper via Citysearch on 8/5/2005
Having read several positive reviews here and elsewhere of Cafe Ponte, we decided to try it for a celebratory dinner. Although some dishes were good, the meal was a disappointing experience overall, especially the dry and tough osso buco…
WOW!!! A Bright Spot In The Bay Area by ciatampa via Citysearch on 4/14/2005
Once you get past the location (in a strip center next to a Holiday Inn Select) you will be pleasantly surprised with an imaginable menu and flawless execution. My partner and I have heard of Cafe Ponte but did not expect world class food…
The Best Outside New York by chris13505 via Citysearch on 5/19/2004
Upon walking through the entrance of Cafe Ponte, you immediately notice a decor and ambience hardly ever seen in the Tampa Bay area. The hostess was very inviting and pleasant. Our waiter was very friendly and extremely knowledgable. We…
