The ever so popular Cristino’s Coal Oven Pizza in Clearwater is such a hit, brothers/owners Joe, Marco & Lenny Cristino opened their 2nd famed brand in historic Ybor City just a few days ago. Really you almost have to make reservations to get seated at their wonderful boutique Clearwater restaurant. After months of working out a deal and totally renovating the old Spurs and Play Bar at 17th Street & 8th Ave. they finally opened with wondrous community applause. It is right across from Game Time & Crowbar!

    It is sincerely beautifully done and a great added restaurant for Ybor City. The official grand opening and ribbion cutting will be in January right after the holidatys.

    Also on their menu is a wide variety of Italian dishes that their Grandmother used to make, we were told. The building was totally gutted and rebuilt. New kitchen, dining area, outdoor seating. And the homemade Italian Gelato is not to be missed. Over a dozen frozen flavored treats. Well you can’t miss this over $100,000 Italian imported display.

    Go out and experience fun & authentic flavorful Italian dishes at Cristino’s Coal Oven Pizza
