Chianti Italiano - Sarasota

This was our second time bringing a group to this restaurant, and I can confidently say it has the best management and staff I've ever encountered. The appetizers and main courses were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. We visited on November 5, 2022, and they made my mother's 88th birthday truly unforgettable. Thank you!

We arrived with a hearty appetite, beginning with an appetizer, followed by a pasta course (Prima Piatti) and then an entrée (Secondi Piatti). To top it all off, we indulged in a slice of pistachio cream cake accompanied by cappuccino. Suffice it to say, we left utterly satisfied. However, when I got home, I realized I had forgotten my credit card! Oh no! I quickly called the restaurant, and thanks to caller ID, the Maitre d' answered and said, "Mrs. P, we have your card!" That truly made me feel special. Treat yourself to this consistently wonderful restaurant—you won’t regret it!

We dined at one of our favorite spots again and, as always, the food was consistently excellent. The staff was attentive, and the music created a wonderful atmosphere. The manager, Sam, welcomed us with a smile and made sure to check on our table to ensure everything was perfect.

Very subduing, it was not unbearable, but only very dirty. We both had red sauce, this should be a clamp, very under seasoned, meatballs were soggy and simply not great. Service was ok, everyone very nice, food simply missed the brand, there was no point in the meal where we said this is really good, I would order it again.

Excellent service and food. The pasta, true Italian, and the sauces flavorful. The different textures and flavors in one dish were exceptional. The most that I have ever said in a review loved it! Oh, also, one of the best tiramisus in town
