    We stopped in before a show at The Dali and were seated before our reservation time. The atmosphere is a perfect setting for Italian date night; we were seated in a small booth by the window. The Cavatappi Bada Bing made the experience worthwhile. It was delicious and was quite a show to make. The gentleman who made it was entertaining as he set vodka on fire and tossed the pasta into a wheel of parmesan cheese. It was rich and luxurious. My husband ordered the meatballs and they were huge! The soup and salad, included with the meal, were very good, and happy hour wine special was a great surprise. We live in Dunedin and will go back next time we’re in St Pete!

    This was our first eating at Stillwater Tavern, and the food was amazing. Our server Ali was wonderful. She was very friendly and attentive. We can't wait to come back and eat here again. It was worth over the hour ride.
