Casa Santo Stefano is the newest member to the Columbia Restaurant family located in Ybor. Guests can enjoy authentic Ybor Sicilian food in what used to be a macaroni factory is the early 1900s. "Ybor Sicilian is basically...Sicilian food but with an American flair," said Alessio Selleri, executive chef for the restaurant.
Casa Santo Stefano imports many of its ingredients from Italian and serves of a variety of Sicilian dishes like Insalata D’Arance (a popular salad made with blood oranges, arugula and lemon vinaigrette), Cartocciata Crab Enchilado (a traditional street food dish that's similar to a calzone, stuffed with blue crab meat and spicy tomato sauce) and Aunt Lily's Caponata (classic eggplant dish tossed with roasted garlic, tomatoes and olives and served with Muffulettu bread), as well as some classic Italian American favorites like bolognese and lasagna.
