   Food was wonderful. Value for the prices is not out of control but definitely on the pricey side. Good wine list. It was my birthday dinner so no small dessert…only if you want to buy one. That was surprisingly stingy on their part.

   A truly delightful evening. The staff is professional, courteous and top-notch. All four of us were very pleased with our dinner choices and look forward to returning.

   An outstanding restaurant in every way. This restaurant compares with the best I have experienced on my global business travels. Exaggeration… try it and then see if you still doubt my assessment.

   Back again for another perfect dinner. Delicious veal tartare, excellent rabbbit braised in white wine, outstanding ravioli with ossobuco filling. Great personable service, excellent drinks. Will be back when we return to Sarasota after Christmas.

   Best restaurant in Sarasota, hands down! Out dinner was fabulous! Homemade pasta, charred Broccolini, filet minion, roasted potatoes and tiramisu for dessert!Drinks from Caroline at the bar were excellent! If you haven’t been to LaVioletta yet you are missing out!
