We came here for an early dinner with two very tired 5 year olds after a day at the beach. We felt so welcomed with our kiddos from the beginning. The staff were great with the kids and so attentive. The food was delicious (especially the flatbreads!) and mom and dad were able to enjoy a relaxing dinner.

Had a dinner to-go order. Added an order of bruschetta when I arrived. The to-go hostess was incredibly friendly and helpful! I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the order was ready, especially since the bruschetta was added last minute! The bruschetta was Absolutely delicious as was the Gluten-free Margherita pizza!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options available!

My 5 stars are for the restaurant's food, Chef Paolo is the best that has come to Sarasota, authentic Italian food, I recommend it. Ask to speak to the Chef and listen to his recommendation of the day. The service is not that good, a girl named Marta didn't do her job well at all. I hope that the owner of this restaurant reads this message and reviews the staff that serves diners and changes them. I will visit them again for their food.

Super meal.Wheelchair accessibility: Wide easy ramp access.
Up charge of $2.00 per drink for “on the rocks OR neat” doesn’t sit right with me!! plus explicitly told waitress separate checks (2 couples) since my husband and I splurge when we go out. She ended up splitting the tab in half and said “ that will be ok right”? Food was delicious, best calamari I’ve ever had, pasta a little too el Dante for me but sauce and flavor was good.

We came on a recommendation from a friend and she really was not mistaken, since we arrived the attention of our waitress Carly was always impeccable with a good recommendation and knowledge of the menu, the food was spectacular, my daughter ate some gnocchi and they were so good that she ate up to the “Literal” dish they are served in a bowl made of bread that was very good idea from the Chef, my wife ate a French Chicken with potatoes and spinach that I can’t explain how tasty it was, I ordered a lasagna that was for The dish that we came recommended, personally is one of the best I have tried in my life, everything was at its point cooked to perfection, the flavors impressive, my brother-in-law ordered the pasta sea food He felt that the seafood was fresh and the pasta at its correct point of cooking “Al Dente” I really congratulate the Chef because everything was Awesome . I recommend it 100%

My first time there and this was a very pleasant surprise. Everything was first class from the service to the food to the great atmosphere. We shared a meal and had plenty even with the small share charge. I really liked their attention to detail from the servers and they were always there with multiple people taking care of you. Doesn't look like much from the outside but this is a top flight place to go to eat. Do it!
