Jay Luigi Italian Restaurant in St Petersburg

Published on 01/10/24: Jay Luigi in St Pete! A family favorite of ours when it comes to quick and casual Italian food. First, happy anniversary to my wife! These 14 years have flown by in the blink of an eye. Grateful for everything she does, her patience, plus supporting my ol’ Loving St Pete.❤️ PaperFinch Design

Great Menu, plus Alcohol, Desserts, and Brunch

Alright, who knows the delicious Jay Luigi St. Pete? The entire menu is fantastic, plus they offer wine, beer, seltzers, ciders, desserts, brunch specials (Saturday & Sunday), and options for kids. That’s not all. Those who seek gluten free, vegetarian, and dairy free selections, will find them at Jay Luigi.
This may be one of those where I receive “shh, that’s supposed to be a secret” in my messages.😬 It’s so good and averages around $6 less an entree than a few other Italian restaurants we’ve visited. However, many drive right by it, blending in with everything else on 4th Street.
Address: 3201 4th Street N, St Pete
Google Reviews: 4.6/5 with 400+ Reviews
Tagline: “We don’t turn tables. We turn tables into community.” You know I like that one. #community
As with all restaurants, when I heard Jay Luigi was opening (Jan ‘22), I wondered if it would be great and if it would last. However, I immediately knew the answer when I read the Ciccio Restaurant Group was heading it up.

Operated by the Ciccio Restaurant Group

I spent the good part of 2 years eating bowl after tasty bowl from Ciccio’s (now renamed CALI – South Tampa, Tampa Palms, St. Pete, Brandon). And to this day, when friends and family visit, they say “is that Ciccio Cali place still here? Please include that on our lunch list.” Another post for another day…
To sum up Jay Luigi: It was started by Jay Brunetti and the CIccio Restaurant Group. “We offer casual Italian dining in beautiful St. Petersburg, FL. Fresh Pastas, naturally fermented Roman & NY-apolitan Style pizzas, all made with the guiding principle: quality without compromise. We share our love of food with our community, by serving our neighbors with the same devotion that we extend to our own family and friends.”
