We found this restaurant on trip advisor and are so glad we went last night. It is a small intimate place that has a fabulous owner who is spectacular. She really takes care of the guests and tries to get to know everyone. The servers were just as friendly. We ordered the Caprese which was very good and had the... more

Just ate here last night - based on Trip Advisor reviews - and have to say we really enjoyed it. Greeted by the owner, a friendly Brooklyn-born New Yorker who makes sure you have a good experience. Her son works his magic in the kitchen. If available, seriously recommend the special pasta dish with lobster, shrimp, tomato & basil in... more

Ten years in Sarasota and I can tell you there's no better quality, fresh Italian food than Ferrari's. It's not cheap but neither is the quality or portions. Mom is up front managing the place and her culinary chef son is in the kitchen. Quite a combination. more

My husband & I come from NYC, where the italian food in "little Italy" is the best. We have also traveled to Italy and eaten in the finest restaurants. Ferrari's food equals the best Italian resturants we have been to! Their antipasto is amazing....it can feed four. Their Bolognese sauce is to die for. I have not had anything that... more

I had lobster and shrimp with pasta in a rich cream sauce. The portions of lobster and gulf shrimp in the dish were generous and perfectly cooked. It was very good, but lacked pizzaz for the price. Could have used some basil or garlic or something to give it a little kick. I had to add salt and pepper, which... more

Having moved here from the mid-Atlantic region, this area is sorely lacking good restaurants, to say the least. Last night, two ITALIAN friends and I went to Ferrari's to celebrate a birthday. We all loved the food and service. They both commented that this was as close to their grandma's kitchen as they could get. Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful. Good to... more

December 1,2008 Being from Rhode Island, having many Italian friends and loving Italian food my wife and I decided to try Ferrari,s after reading the glowing reviews on Tripadvisor. Most of the reviews mention the outside decor of this storefront restaurant and it's lack of appeal and I have to agree. When you enter, however, it is an entirely different... more

We found this restaurant through Trip Advisor, and were a little apprehensive when we pulled into the parking lot of this storefront restaurant. We entered and found a clean, well lit dining room, and were greeted immediately. The service was excellent, and quite a few of the other customers seemed like repeats. The food was excellent; all of us got... more

The best Italian I've found in Sarasota. The whole family is there and the attention to detail shows. My wife had the veal chop and it was incredible. I had a the whole roasted Snapper, it was fresh and cooked perfectly. Not the most attractive place in the world especially from the mediocre front, but I felt like I was... more
