THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Uva Rara Restaurant Review:

Quickly becoming one of the most popular dining spots in Sarasota, this venue gets a lot of personal attention from owners Oscar and Pablo who present a limited but creative menu of appetizers, fish, pasta and veal. Appetizers range from the carpaccio of beef tenderloin topped with olive oil and shaved Parmigiano cheese, to prosciutto di Parma with fresh seasonal fruit. The linguini al frutti di mare has the expected seafood mix of mussels, shrimp, scallops, clams and fresh salmon sautéed in a white wine sauce. And the gnocchi al pesto---homemade potato dumplings with the Uva Rara’s signature pesto sauce---is a nice touch. Veal can be sautéed with rosemary, portobello mushrooms or fresh tomatoes, and seafood choices range from fresh sole sautéed in lemon, capers and white wine sauce (sogliola al limone), to fresh salmon sautéed in a cheery tomato, mushroom, zucchini and white wine sauce (salmone Uva Rara)---the restaurant’s signature dish.
