Reviews for GASPARILLA PIZZERIA & GROWLERS in Brandon, FL
The BEST pizza I?ve had in a LONG time! It?s so good, I?ve been thinking about it since we left! Will definitely be back soon.
I was excited to try this because of the reviews and I will give my honest opinion. The caprese salad was $12 and this is what I... got?. Literally a little bowl with lettuce 4 slices of mozzarella and 6 slices of tomato. You can tell that there is no effortor love in the food. It is just thrown into a bowl. The pasta is undercooked and dry. The pasta sauce taste like old cold ragusauce tbh. Also the sausage was cut in half for some reason and completely dry. Maybe they are just known for the pizza andthat?s why there is good reviews. The meatballs my wife got taste sweet and overcooked and not herby at all. The 2 star is forthe garlic knots because they were not the best but they were decently good. Honest review I will have to try the pizza next andsee how it is. Read more
This place looks like a chill place to go hang out and eat. Saw so many different beers. I ordered a "Big Daddy Pizza" 18" it... was ready in time. The ladies that helped me were very nice ???? I want to try the whole menu now. Read more
Pizza is awesome. Great craft beer selection. Service was excellent. Our new go to now that Babes Pizza has gone downhill and... under poor management. Read more
Destiny was absolutely amazing!!! The Fire Fries are life changing, greasy but everything that's right about funnel cake but in... an edible form. The pizza toppings are so high quality and fresh that you can literally taste every single topping and thecrust on it's own. The garlic knots are crunchy, fluffy, buttery and the the ideal paring for the perfectly chunky andflavorful sauce. We've never had service as good as Destiny provided and we've never had such a great first experience at arestaurant. We will most certainly be back and will be bringing our family! Read more
I couldn't wait to update my review after my 3rd visit today. It just happened to be after their latest expansion project. It... was perfect timing because now I can report that it is so much bigger inside. They added a craft beer bar area, and there islots of indoor and outdoor seating. I mean, it feels very open and comfortable now. They also have a refrigerated section withvarious cans of craft beer where you can create your own six pack as well. All of this is right in my neighborhood, and I'm soexcited about this. So, my first visit was at the end of 2020 when they first opened. They hadn't incorporated the beer yet.What I got at that time was the same thing I got today. I was super happy with the eggplant parm garlic knot sliders, and I wascraving them today. I also ordered the chicken parm sliders for my husband. I decided to order a beer while everything was beingprepared since the layout looked so much more inviting. Also, the current brews on tap looked really good. Unsure of what Iwanted, the bartender offered me a sample of two that I was considering. One was the Carrot Cake À La Mode by Untitled Art andthe other was Fuzzy Peach Tea Gose by Infinite Ale Works. She was so friendly and helpful, and we talked a little about theremodel which added so much more space. I'm so happy for them! Anyway, I ended up getting the gose even though I liked both ofthe beers. I also noticed lots of Star Wars, Star Trek, and Bolts memorabilia. The beer flight set caught my eye immediately.Yep, they are mugs shaped like a rancor's tooth from the Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge movie. It's unique, right? I haven't seen itbefore today. I was also drawn to Star Trek stuff as well. Everything felt so open and comfortable at the bar. There was even acompact fan that was keeping me nice and cool. Hey, it's Florida. What can I say? The gose beer from a brewery in Ocala was alsovery refreshing. I'd get it again. My order was ready as I finished my glass of beer. The staff bro Read more
Wow! This place is ????????????. Got baked ziti, boneless wings, side salad, and small cheese pie for $25.25 which is insane.... Should easily be $30+. Salad was fresh, wings were large, ziti was easily the best I?ve ever had. Pizza was so good Portnoywould give them at least a 9. I will be back! OWNER your location did not come up on Apple Maps, need to pay someone to fixthat. I think it showed the previous restaurant when I typed in the location. Read more
The pizza, service and atmosphere is amazing at this establishment. I've sat down for a beer during trivia night and had wings &... pizza then on other occasions I've just done take out but not once have I've been disappointed. They supercede in theirattentiveness to the customers and the quality of their food so much so that I asked for the owner or manager on one of myvisits to provide the positive feedback and thank them for always being consistent. I love their pizza, I have to say it's oneof the best! Read more
