   I had the tris ravioli which was too rich. Expected dough to be lighter and sauces more delicate

   Based on reviews and having to book more than a week in advance, we accepted an early reservation and are so glad we did. I consider La Violetta to be in the top three restaurants in Sarasota after dining there just this one time. Exceptional dishes for us were the ravioli osso buco and the sardine appetizer. Our server Frederico was exceptional. We'll be back.

   Best Italian restaurant in Sarasota. Food, service and ambient is outstanding. We will go back many more times in the future.

   Excellent food and lovely servers! Amazing cocktails as well and never too loud to have a conversation with your guests.

    The food and service are superb! One entree serves 2 people or can be taken home for another meal. I had the ravioli stuffed with osso buco and it was delicious. Others had the baked branzini and baked bream and agreed that their entrees were outstanding. Only slight criticism was with the fried zucchini blossoms, which we ordered because they were highlighted in other reviews. The four blossoms we received were not crispy fried as I've had in other restaurants but maybe that's the way it's done at La Violetta.
