Valentino

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Gambero Rosso-Recognized Table in Clearwater

Valentino, located on Gulf to Bay Blvd in Clearwater, Florida, holds the distinction of being recognized by Gambero Rosso — Italy's most authoritative food and wine guide — with a Fork award in 2025. That recognition places Valentino in select company: Gambero Rosso's international editions spotlight only those restaurants outside Italy that meet a genuine standard of Italian culinary integrity.

On Gulf to Bay

The address — 2930 Gulf to Bay Blvd — puts Valentino squarely in the heart of Clearwater, accessible and unpretentious in setting while carrying the weight of serious critical attention. A Gambero Rosso Fork is not handed out for ambiance alone; it signals a kitchen committed to the craft of Italian cooking, executed with consistency.

For diners in the Tampa Bay area seeking a restaurant that has earned independent, internationally credible recognition, Valentino represents a dependable choice — one that a respected Italian guide has seen fit to include in its curated global selection.
