Our Story
A Sicilian family,
a Sarasota tradition.
The Dentici family has been serving great food in Sarasota since 1989, when we relocated from New Jersey carrying the recipes our Sicilian grandmothers passed down. From day one, the mission has been simple: make food the way Nonna made it, and treat every guest like family.
Sit back and let your tongue do the traveling. Our hand-tossed pizzas are made on a pizza peel to stone with fresh sauce and toppings. Our meatballs and sausage are made in-house from scratch. Our pasta is cooked fresh, plate by plate. Nothing is rushed, nothing is faked.
Recognition
Voted by our neighbors, again and again.
We've been honored with the Herald Tribune Readers' Choice and Sarasota Magazine's Best Of awards — but the recognition we care most about is the family that comes back week after week.
