I took my fiancé and two of her friends to dinner there after a wonderful day of beaching. My friends are from Colorado and my fiancé and I have had many wonderful dining experience is all across the country.
Thank you...
I have dined at some of the finest Italian restaurants across the country.
Had an outstanding meal here last night that was bested only by the first-class service all around. Joseph is the BEST - my girlfriend and I are raving to our friends. Thank you again for making us feel so valued & welcome!
On October 2, 2017, at 6:30 pm... bill for 4 people-$178... tipped 20% total $214.
Had a couple great meals there. Once we sat at the bar and ate, then came back another night, with a reservation, since we enjoyed it so much the first time. Nice people and good food!
The reason I am writing this review is because I really enjoy the restaurant and want to come back but you need some quality control back in the kitchen.
The fillet that my fiancé ordered and the The fillet that came with my surf and turf was one of the smallest cuts of fillets I have ever been served at in a restaurant. The burgundy peppercorn sauce was absolutely outstanding except for the fact of the very stinky large chunks of onions in it… My carbonara was a wonderful base carbonara except for the large stinky chunks of onions in it which I have never seen in either one of these dishes before… The angel hair pasta with red sauce was wonderful except for the , Once again large smelly chunks of onions in it as well… There was huge amounts of onions in each and every one of our dishes. I enjoy onions but and all honesty the dishes should have been called onions with fillet, onions with pasta, onions with scallops ....
Flavios is the best restaurant on the key. The food is excellent but the real reason to eat here is the staff. They are so nice but more than that they are excited to have you as a patron and more excited for you to have their food. The ambiance is decidedly exquisite but the experience is just as relaxing.
I spent a few days in Sarasota for an extended girls weekend. We were at Siesta Key Village, walking around the quaint downtown when an employee of Flavio's waved us over. As a celiac person, my first question was "do you offer gluten free options" to which we were told they serve gluten free pizza & pasta - I was so excited. When the waiter came, as always, I was very careful to order gluten free pizza. If you are a celiac or gluten sensitive, you understand the extreme issues that come with eating food with gluten! I spent the next 18 hours extremely ill. We called the restaurant the next day and were told the waiter didn't write gluten free on the order and we could come back for a free meal - no thank you - not to mention we would spend as much on an uber ride as the meal. So I lost a day of our 4 days in Sarasota, due to their oversight. My caution to all of you celiac and gf people - be very wary of getting an actual gf meal here.
I am going to write two reviews with in this. First of all let me tell you that the reason there is only 1 star is because of the food. However, I would give 5 stars for the ambience, Decour, and service, The atmosphere and our service was top shelf. Well done to the servers and the staff that was in the front room.
Some of the food that was ordered was the surf and turf, carbonara, grouper rotini, angel hair with red sauce, fillet with a burgundy peppercorn sauce, chicken and olives, stuffed chicken…
I hope the restaurant read this review because you’ve got a wonderful staff and a wonderful atmosphere… But I don’t know who is cooking that night but you don’t put onions in some of the dishes that you were serving and especially large chunks of onion and cheap ones that over took each one of our meals.... we all had to stop and get breath mints to get the onion flavor out of our mouths after we left your restaurant.. so I word to the wise… If you’re going to dine there the food is actually outstanding but do not expect a healthy size piece of beef and asked them to hold the onion.
