Best Authentic Restaurants in Bradenton

Love this little quiet place. A perfect gem. The guitar man and his singing was at the perfect soft tone. Can't wait to go back. excellent all around.

So happy with all the improvements at Scarpino's. Tom was our server and he was excellent. As usual, the food was delicious and good value for the money. Ambiance is lovely. Just perfect. Thank you to the Scarpino's team.

Great authentic Italian food. The service was great too!

Found this place on a whim and was very impressed with the entire experience! The service was excellent and the menu had so many good options, it was difficult to decide. We settled on the signature steaks and were not disappointed! The creamed spinach is my new favorite I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this place for a special occasion or upscale night out!

Being new to the area we search out new places to dine other than a chain restaurant. We had a reservation for 6:00pm, decent time for dinner. When we parked there were a couple of cars in the lot, didn't seem to busy so we thought "maybe this place isn't that great?" Walked inside this quaint old house that has been converted into a restaurant, greeted by a very friendly gentleman who showed us to our table. Everyone was very attentive, very timely with water, drinks, apps and our meals. The food was fantastic! Very pleased with our meals. As we sat and ate the dining area was now full, all within an hour or so. Now we know why! We had an excellent time, we can't wait to go back again and try everything on the menu!
