Cafe Gabbiano

Stopped in for dinner during our trip to Siesta Key. Food was good and service was friendly and quick. The portions were filling and left us with no room for dessert. Great selection of wines either by the bottle or glass.

Cafe Gabbiano was one of the few places I could find that took reservations and I am so happy they do!!!! Our bachelorette party of 9 enjoyed EVERYTHING from the drinks, to dinner, to desert, to service. Skip the cliche tourist traps and dine here for a quality, local experience. Our waitress Priscilla was great as well. Thank you!!

This is a super awesome fine dining Italian Styled Cafe right off Ocean Blvd on the Island. This place is over the top amazing! Everything they served us was not only delicious beyond compare but a culinary work of art. The ambience of this place is incredible with all the pine wood paneling and wine racks. Wine Cask tops and fine bottle art we loved everything about this little Cafe. All the staff where incredible so happy, friendly and inviting. Our waiter Mikey, was super experienced and knowledgeable about all facets of the menu, he could describe each and every dish they serve far better then the menus description. If your not sure what you want just tell him what you prefer flavor wise and what wine flavors you like and he can find the perfect meal and wine to compliment it for you. They have a awesome selection of incredible house wines that are very delicious and I strongly suggest going with one that pairs well with you entree. Peter was the co-owner and personally inquired with each and every guest if their dining experience was up to expectations, I could unconditionally assure him that we lacked for nothing. Everything exceeded our imagination and we will be frequent customers now that we have sampled their amazing cuisine. I'm giving them a top 3 best rating. Utterly delicious. Kudos! One spacific delicacy I would suggest the Poached Pear Salad, The Gnocchi, and the House Special Mamma Luci Veal, paired with thier House Special Chianti. The Tiramisu we had for dessert was the crowning jewl of the evening. Peter also provided a complimentary glass of their in house made Lemon Cello as a final dessert Liqour for the evening.

Very good Italian restaurant. Homemade pasta is excellent. We had the linguine with Bolognese. I had the grouper fillet with risotto and fresh vegetables. Presentation was excellent the grouper was done perfectly. My husband had the yellow fin tuna which was the catch of the day. Loved the preparation also served with risotto and asparagus. They serve fresh bread with olive oil for dipping complementary. We ordered an appetizer of marinated olives and it was served over a bed of arugula and drizzled with balsamic glaze. Very nice. We enjoyed a bottle of their house wine. I thought the whole experience was excellent. I wish I had room for dessert. The adjoining party had ordered the cannoli and we got a look at them as they were being served and they were as big as hot dog rolls!
