- BBrianVIPTampa / Central Florida West •2 reviews5.0Dined todayCafe Gabbiano is our go-to restaurant on Siesta Key. Tucked away in the corner of a shopping area, we’re always greeted by friendly staff who always seat us at our before our reserved time. Our waitstaff has always been friendly, attentive and a pleasure to speak with. They have a large selection of wine, and the bartenders serve excellent mixed drinks. The selections of appetizers, to salads, entrees, to deserts provides an experience for even picking eaters (like our kids). We’ve tried many of their selections and while we have our favorites, we’ve never experienced a bad meal. My favorite, bruschetta for an appetizer, truffle ravioli for the main course and a chocolate martini for the closer.More infoCafe GabbianoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Siesta Key•4.8
- BBobSt. Louis •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe were seated right on time at our reservation. We were greeted warmly by our server Joanie and she gave us time to look at the menu after telling us about the specials for the evening. The ambience was very nice people dressed up a bit more due to the Christmas holidays. The noise level was low to medium, which allowed for a good conversation. I had the special for the night for the Casio de Pepe and a good glass of quilted Cabernet. I’ve been there before and they’re happy hours are awesome as well. We’ll be back !!!More infoBar Italia Lakewood Ranch, FloridaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Fruitville, Florida•4.6

- DDaveNebraska •1 review5.0Dined on 14 Dec 2024Prompt seating through Open Table app. Quaint restaurant on the main thorough fair in Palmetto. We had two couples and started with salads. The waiter was very receptive to splitting the generous sized salads into separate bowls. Our guests had the veal medallions in a yummy sauce and the special lasagna they were offering that night. We had veal parm and their special linguini with porcini mushrooms and Italian sausage. Both were outstanding with generous portions. We were all impressed to say the least. I am hesitant to write a nice review for fear of not getting a seat next time around but they deserve to have their service and food promoted.More infoRagù cucina italianaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Palmetto•4.6
