The Big Waiter was Sexually Vulgar and Disrespectful to me.
I don't go out to dinner to be humiliated. The olive oil that is served with bread is bitter. Those two combos need to GO. I'm Never going back.
Be the first to ReplyJust a well run, very fun place.
Food, service and atmosphere are excellent. Peasant Chicken is amazing.
Be the first to ReplyFood is very good.
The art scene is over the top too much. I had their peasant chicken over pasta which is special. Sauce is extremely savory and different. Pasta is perfectly cooked.

The ambience is authentically their own! The food is awesome (this is from someone who makes their own pasta!!). The appetizers, stuffed peppers, pizza, bolognese I could really go on & on! When my son visits, this is on his Absolute list every time! Music, art & the menu demonstrates the boldness of the personality because the food can back it up! Regretfully- The service is hit or miss which is the only reason for 4 stars! I have bragged about how wonderful it is only to bring friends and receive inattentive service that becomes a topic of conversation. I absolutely love this place, choosing it as the location to celebrate birthdays and special occasions.

The restaurant is super cool as there is art all over the walls, the service is friendly, but the food is mediocre and a bit overpriced.
Be the first to ReplyHave had Cafe Barbosso on my list of places to try for a
Have had Cafe Barbosso on my list of places to try for a while now. I was excited to finally make it there to have dinner with my aunt. Place was busy, we didn't have a reservation there was a short wait, about 20 minutes not bad, but also didn't think on a Tuesday that I would need a reservation. So I was even more excited to that the place was busy so the food must be good. For appetizers we ordered the stuffed mushrooms and rice balls. The stuffed mushrooms were DELICIOUS, the rice balls were not. The rice balls didn't have much flavor and then the big bowl of sauce that it came in was cold. But the Demi glaze for the stuffed mushrooms was out of this world. For dinner I ordered the fillet of sole and my aunt had veal parmigiana. The sole was ok nothing to rave home about. My aunts veal was over cooked, you could tell the outside edges were dark brown and black color. It clearly was fried too long. My aunt ate some of it and didn't complain, even though she probably should have. Our waitress Cindy came over and asked if she wanted a box my aunt said no and then told the waitress why she didn't want to take it home, because it was overcooked. The waitress was very apologetic, my aunt said you don't have to apologize it wasn't your fault. The waitress came back with the check and says to my aunt I spoke with the manager and she looked at the veal and said it wasn't over cooked it was "crispy" around that edges, so we gave you 50% off of the veal. Which my aunt's response was well did she try it because I can tell you it was overcooked. The waitress knew shouldn't have said that and quickly back peddled and said I'm sorry I'm just repeating what my manager said. We have you 50% off so you will come back again. A manager that didn't have the decency to come out and say that to our face. Apparently the manager didn't believe my aunt so why would she come out and address us. But hey thanks for the 50% of the meal that was overcooked and we didn't ask for 50% off or even complain. But now I'm complaining because that was pretty tacky and no we won't be back.

This place gets better every time we go!! Every menu item we try is amazing! Atmosphere is so cool and the service is great. (Tonight we had a great server, Evan) and the owner makes you feel like family. Highly recommend and look forward to going back many more times.

Fun vibes, great service and scrumptious food! Live music several evenings a week. I bring visitors to this gem. Always a great time.

Be the first to ReplyThe food and drinks were very good.
I don't love the bar seating, but we didn't have a reservation, so that was the only thing available.
Be the first to ReplyBest eggplant parmigiana of my life.
Service, atmosphere and authentic Italian cuisine. Our favorite restaurant in Sarasota.
Be the first to ReplyWe are locals and have heard amazing things about this
We are locals and have heard amazing things about this restaurant. They are always busy, and it's very confusing to get a reservation, but we finally did after several attempts to dine there.I am a classically trained Italian chef, so I absolutely love digging into a new Italian spot, plus it's my birthday.My reservation was for 630pm.. they called and asked us to delay until 700pm.... We get there a few minutes beforehand and there isn't a table for us, we are told. Within 15 minutes, they set 3 other tables, and the only person trying to help us a server named Dani. She was the brightspot and the epitome of guest service. I give her 5 stars. The manager didn't even want to speak to me, and when she finally did, she wanted to give me excuses instead of a solution. Thank you, Cafe Barbosa, for a great dinner and exciting birthday. Its not everyday you get treated as if you don't even exist when standing in front of someone.
Be the first to ReplyGreat atmosphere! The place was packed on a Wednesday
Great atmosphere! The place was packed on a Wednesday inside & out as there was a awesome big band set up outside. We had the chicken parm and the rigatoni bolognese, both excellent. Calamari appetizer to start was first rate.

Loved the big band entertainment outside! Our 2 appetizers (garlicky shrimp and the Bruschetta) were both delicious. Can't wait to return to order a whole meal!

I set up a dinner date for 12 of us neighbors on our block and the restaurant had everything ready, the waiter was totally attentive, the Cucumber Mint Martini I had was very refreshing. The food was served perfectly and right temperature, with great appeal. Everyone enjoyed themselves. We will go back.
Be the first to ReplyAnother fantastic meal.
Joseph was a terrific bartender/server! Loved the Arancini, Stuffed Pepper and Margarita pizza! Lively atmosphere and all around great evening!
Be the first to ReplyCool vibe, eclectic, great food.
The owner is awesome. Curated one of the best spots in town to enjoy a meal. Love the live art and chef tastings.
Be the first to ReplyWonderful food and wait staff.
Staff very knowledgeable. Music is delightful and there is an artist of the night. Fun to watch!
Be the first to ReplyWe are fussy / picky about our food, since we're both
We are fussy / picky about our food, since we're both Italiano and mostly cook at home, especially with inflation as it is. It's nice to go out, when you don't feel like making dinner. We were prepared to be disappointed, but hopeful. However, the food was very good. I had the best uniquely and perfectly made calamari ever and very good veal parmesan. My wife had the multilayered eggplant. Good quality food. Linguine was not over or undercooked. Sauce was great as well. We're going next week again. Hoping for consistency. Gave them 4 stars because it was our first experience there. We'll see.

We made a reservation and requested a table at 6:30pm but they sitted us at 7:10 pm and in a different table. Waiter didn't serve us well. They ran out of meatballs and they ran out of ravioli. The pasta was saucy and not a lot of pasta and meat. It was a very bad experience for us.
Be the first to ReplyVery disappointed last night arriving on time for a 7:15
Very disappointed last night arriving on time for a 7:15 reservation with 4 friends to introduce them to this restaurant where we have previously dined about 6 times. We were finally seated at 7:35 and placed our dinner order about ten minutes later. The appetizers arrived in a timely manner but we did not receive our entree until after 9 PM. By that time we were famished. To top the poor experience off my Seafood Fra Diavalo was overflowing with sauce and the pasta was stuck together in lumps. My guests remarked that their entrees were just so-so.I regret to say that this is likely my last visit to a restaurant that had pleased me in the past.

I was brought here with friends in the wine industry who rave about the culinary experience saying its the best in FloridaThe key is to know how to order to experience these culinary treasures. A chef's table is my recommendation, make your reservation as soon as possible, it does book up quickly. Service is outstanding for have traditional NYC style servers who are real pros. If you are a pizza lover they do a culinary spin. Try the greek pizza with lamb & spinach... favors are a delight.Their traditional menu items are fabulous; however, the real treat is dishes off the menu. Such as the foie gras hot dog, divine. Wine list is very good, impressive finds. Family friendly, loud & festive. If your an art lover you will enjoy the decor and local artist painting in the middle of the restaurant. Make sure you have plenty of time to stay and enjoy the experience.
Be the first to ReplyAtrocious.
Been there before with my wife and food is mediocre. Attempted to try it with my family and was welcomed with nasty stares and comments. Maybe call ahead to make sure your family would be welcomed. Not sure when a shopping center restaurant turned into a private adults only supper club.
Be the first to ReplyWhat a great place to dine.
Super busy place, terrific vibe and good service. I had the eggplant entree, it was phenomenal. We were a large party, and we're sat immediately of course with reservations. We really want to try the chef's table, but the wait list is 3 months long!Bottom line: you got to try out this place. It's terrific Italian food and good prices with good service to boot.
Be the first to ReplyHad a long day of driving and needed an early dinner before
Had a long day of driving and needed an early dinner before heading back to the east coast of FL. Though the restaurant was empty when we arrived at 5pm we arrived without reservations - we eventually were seated on the outdoor screened in patio. I had a salad and my mom and I both had spaghetti and meatballs. It was delicious and filling. We also ordered the breadsticks, which were a bridge too far for us, especially with the cheese topping the waitress suggested. The house bread and oil would have been just enough.
