Tampa St. Petersburg, FL, August 30, 2026 — Largo, FL – The Horizon West Bay complex in Largo is set to introduce two new culinary options, Bocelli Modern Italian and Dead Bob’s, with financial support from the city for their establishment. The city’s involvement in funding the build-outs of these establishments has generated discussion among local officials and residents.
Both Bocelli Modern Italian and Dead Bob’s are anticipated to open their doors to the public in 2027. The specific details regarding the amount of city funding allocated for the build-out of each restaurant have not been publicly disclosed at this time. Similarly, the precise nature of the discussions among officials and residents concerning this development has not been detailed.
The Horizon West Bay area is a developing part of Largo, and the addition of new dining venues is often seen as a step towards increasing local amenities and potentially attracting more visitors and economic activity. However, the use of city funds for private business development can prompt various perspectives from stakeholders, ranging from support for growth to inquiries about public investment priorities.
Further information regarding the scope of the city’s funding and the timeline for construction and opening will be subject to future announcements. Residents and officials are expected to continue to engage in dialogue as plans for Bocelli Modern Italian and Dead Bob’s progress towards their projected 2027 opening.
