The Italian Grill - Best Italian Food and Pizza in Sarasota Reviews from The Last Year
We dined there tonight for dinner with another couple.
Atmosphere is nice,, casual Italian theme. We had a late lunch so we weren't extremely hungry. We ordered a bottle of wine and decided to split a Chicken Piccata entree. It was bland in flavor and the Chicken portion was very tiny. Would have complained if we weren't with new friends. When the bill came they had overcharged us for the wine. Waitress stated that prices had changed and refused to do anything about it until I found the menu that stated the price I had seen when I ordered from. They still overcharged me a few dollars and we just let it go. Based on bland flavor, portion size, etc we won't return. There are many better Italian restaurants in Sarasota.
I ordered Eggplant Parmesan to go.
it wasn't even edible. eggplant not cooked. tough and chewy. sauce had no flavor - worse than store-bought sauce in a jar - terrible meal. I would have sent it back if I was in the resta. this place used to be good. no more.
Excellent food and service.
The burrata salad and eggplant Parmesan were delicious. The restaurant ambience is great. It looks like a hole in the wall place but it's not! We will bring our friends here soon.
my husband's chicken marsala was very small like a child's
my husband's chicken marsala was very small like a child's portion and my sauce has so much oil it wasn't good. Last time we went my husband did not get his salad so they gave us a couple of Zeppoli's. The manager didn't seem to care.
$32 for a pizza with two ingredients is awful.
Way too much for this type of restaurant. Never go back. Not worth it.
Poor
We had to go up front twice to get someone to take our order. The food preparation was poor. The eggplant parm was a thin amount of eggplant with more breading. The pasta was broken up and overcooked and the sauce not flavorful. The chicken marsala was also poor. The chicken was mushy...and too much breading. I heard they have a new chef the past month so perhaps it was better before and we dined there on a Sunday night..On a positive note while not having one their martinis looked very generous.
Food is great and awesome give you a lot of food they give
Food is great and awesome give you a lot of food they give you and chicken Parmesan is a plus it's real chicken Parmesan and not that baked meat. All the other food is delicious as well but my favorite thing is chicken Parm so and pasta it comes with and it comes with a small salad, which is pretty good for the price not that it's not too expensive , food is very good. I give it a five star.

I have been to the Italian Grill a few times through the years. It was always a good reliable place. Went on feb.of 24 .They have really stepped up their game. A new look ,service was great and everyone loved their food. Place was packed and now I know why.
Great food, wonderful service, reasonable price
Visted tonight and could not have been happier with our choice. Wendy our server is the absolute best. She took care of us and made sure we had a fun evening. And the food was terrific. I had a sausage and black olive pizza, another of our group had the white pizza. Someone had the chicken picatta and another had the chicken parm. All wonderful. The owner and the host both came to our table to say 'hi' and "thanks for coming'. My wife and I always patronize places where we are made to feel appreciated. We will definitely be back.
Great gluten-free pizza
Wonderful lunch, with about the best gluten-free pizza I've eaten in a long while. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and made our lunch into a very special occasion. We will definitely be back.
A pleasant atmosphere with good service and moderate prices.
However, the food was just okay. The calamari was the star- tender, crispy and not oily. The chicken piccata was flavorful but heavy coated with flour making it slightly mushy and gummy. The veggies were cooked a little beyond Al dente. The blue cheese salad dressing was flavorless. The complimentary zeppolis were heavy and 'dripping' with oil. Friend enjoyed the grilled salmon, another had chicken scarpariello which she enjoyed after ordering a side of spaghetti to balance it. Pricier but far superior ( in my opinion) for Italian food is La Violetta in Sarasota.
Very Disapointing
Not impressed for the 3rd time going their, crab cakes were not made in house, something out of a box, calamari was over cooked twice, very disappointing!!
Excellent service.
Delicious food. Great atmosphere. If you haven't tried this restaurant since the new owner took over you are missing a great experience.
Not the Italian Grill we had tried before. New owner as of 2 years ago. Must try!
Great atmosphere. Delicious food. Excellent service. No complaints at all! Owner was very attentive as well. He wanted to make sure we were all satisfied with everything!
Food was good but 16" pie vs 14" a rip off. Do the math 64 sq. inches vs 49sq. inches. For $31 I expected more
This review is for a take-out! I ordered a 16 inch pizza which was delicious however: It was only 14 inches from one side to the other--The box was only 15 inches square so a 16inch pie would never fit I don't mind spending $26 for dinner but when the greeter put the receipt in my face asking for a 25% or a 20% or an 18% tip I was really put out (of course I could have denied a tip but it was sort of intimidating) And she then took the pie from a warming oven which says it had been there for a while (I had called for a 7 pm pickup about a half hour earlier) Not going there again
This is our favorite "go to" restaurant.
It's really 5 star to us but recently they've added very annoying head pounding background music! Who the heck wants that music while trying to relax and enjoy a drink and a meal! Shut it off PLEASE!!!!
Best authentic Italian food
First off, the staff attention to the patrons was first class. We met the manager, Bruno, and the chef, Paulo. They were gracious hosts and went out of their way to provide us with a memorable experience and culinary delight. The house speciality, fusilli with ricotta, eggplant, and pine nuts, was outstanding. We also ordered the pizza cooked in their wood burning oven, and it was truly a slice of Italy in Sarasota. Nikki, our cheerful waitress, topped off a superb dining experience. If you're looking for authentic Italian fare, this is the place.

Casual, but very popular, Italian spot with a large menu of very delicious food! Both a bar and dining area, but when I came on a Friday night both were packed! I got a personal-sized pepperoni pizza, and it was incredible! One of the better pizza's I've ever had. It was very large as well Servers were a little overwhelmed with the amount of patrons, but they were still very friendly and our food came out quickly. The owners come around to greet every table as well. Complimentary bread, + mini donut for dessert, that were delicious
Went to this place for the first time for my birthday.
At first, we thought it was going to be great. Had our drinks and appetizers right away, and order for dinner was in before our appetizer arrived. The calamari was fantastic. But then, over an hour later, our dinner still had not come. The guy who appeared to be the manager or owner noticed we were waiting a long time and asked us about it. Their excuse was there were several pizzas ordered. But we got there early (5:00) and there was no crowd. The waitress did not check on us but once during this hour. Finally the food came and it was mediocre. No attempt was made to make up for the long wait/horrible service. I would only recommend this place for drinks and an appetizer....not for a nice dinner.
Great local friendly place where you feel like a family
Great local friendly place where you feel like a family when Marta greets you. She's a fantastic manager! Always asks if you are happy & do you like your dishes?

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a responseโฆ how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been โmatchedโ with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
