General Info

Open for lunch, dinner, curbside takeout and rooftop Santo's Drinkeria. Housed in a former 1925 Ybor City macaroni factory, Casa Santo Stefano pays tribute to the Sicilian food owner Richard Gonzmart ate every Sunday with his best friend Vincent Palori. Those Nana-cooked meals inspire the pastas, sauces and seafood we feature here, not just Sicilian, but Tampa Sicilian. The Casa interior design offers a showplace of art and craftsmanship, with custom imported elements around every corner. Casa also pays tribute to the wave of Sicilian immigrants who -- along with the Cubans and Spanish -- helped build Tampa and Ybor City after coming to America looking for a better life. Specifically, 60 percent of the Sicilians in Tampa came from Santo Stefano Quisquina and Alessandria della Rocca. This restaurant tells their history. Begun in friendship, nurtured by family and continued in community, Casa Santo Stefano offers a look back to Sunday suppers, simpler times and shared stories.Open for lunch, dinner, curbside takeout and rooftop Santo's Drinkeria.
