This was our first visit to Malio's and it was amazing. We often stay downtown Tampa when going to see a show at the Straz and this time we decided to do dinner at Mario's. We made reservations for 6pm and were seated in a nice window seat. Given it was Halloween we got to watch people walk by in their costumes. We ordered a very nice bottle of Van Duzer Pinot Noir. My husband ordered the 8oz Filet and I had the Pasta di Mare - we shared the smoked gouda mac and cheese. All of it was absolutely fabulous. For desert I had the Carrot Cake (which I took most of it home). Thanks to everyone at Malio's for making our first visit amazing. We will be back.
