    Little Italy white pizza. Prosciutto was thick, chewy and cooked. Pepperoni was salty and soggy
    Dave D.

    Ugh. So we ordered our pizza. One white called little Italy. First time I ever had thick cooked slices of prosciutto on a pizza. Usually thin shaved slices added after pizza cooked. Prosciutto was very chewy and tough. Ricotta cream was really good. Fresh mozzarella seemed like a slice of normal mozzarella. Crust had a decent flavor. Good chewy factor and good cook. Ordered a pepperoni pizza. Pizza was soggy. Crust flimsy and wet. Pepperoni was good. Cheese was salty. The pizza was ok. The bad part was the lack of attention from stafff. Walked in 20 minutes like they said when they took our order. Couldn't find pizzas. Waited 30 minutes for pizzas on top of 20 minutes. They couldn't give an answer of what happened. Didn't seem to really care. It seemed like the pepperoni sat the 30 minutes because they forgot to make the other pizza. Would have left if we had not paid. I am sure we can do better. Take out seemed somewhat active but restaurant was dead.

    The best pizza I've had in the area! Honestly, it's better and more affordable than Napule. If you're craving delicious pizza at a fair price, this is the place to go! Also, the service here is very kind. Don't miss out! PS... it looks better on the inside than the outside. Don't judge a book by its cover

    So good I could barely get a full pic

    This place is bomb and so welcoming! The wait is long, but beyond worth it. Local pizza has the freshest ingredients and best menu options! I've never once been disappointed. Always clean with the cutest store front. Highly recommend as a returning customer.

    Great staff, good pizza. Honestly enjoyed the leftover pizza the next day, microwaved for a minute, for beach lunches! Outdoor covered patio. Small spot, parking easy. Only one size of pizza. Made fresh to order.

    Pepperoni pizza

    The Pizza is pretty average, Could be better 5.5 - 10 Prolly won't go back. Light sauce, pepperoni isn't the best quality. Cooked okay

    Florida and pizza are now like two peas in a pod thanks to the tremendous migration pattern of people from the north east cities. That being said, there is a lot of pizza competition in this area, and if you're struggling to decide where to eat your next Italian meal, this is certainly a viable option. The ambience is contemporary and hip with a stunning bar and the table service is phenomenal. It's easy to find, on the east side of the 41 in Osprey and there's convenient off street parking. Now keep in mind, the pizza is mediocre. While real pizza (in my opinion) is not overwhelmed by toppings, this restaurant seem to be thrilled to offer you all kinds of interesting pizza varieties, but when it comes down to a basic classic cheese pie, this one will not be at the top of your list. All the pies are 14 inches, which would be considered a small pizza. When you fold such a small slice it feels like a child's portion. Additionally, the pie we had was light on mozzarella cheese. There was no gooey string of cheese hanging down after you take your first bite. Would I recommend giving this restaurant a try? Sure, they might have exactly what you want. It's just not my New York City style pizza. Salute!

    Good pizza spot a little away from siesta key. We had several pizzas and all were good.

    Kid friendly and accomodating. Indoor and outdoor seating.

    Good pizza. I've never eaten there but I picked up food for takeout. The food is always hot and ready when we pick it up. Place looks clean.

    Our first visit to Capo Pazzo was certainly a good one. I'm going to say it is a bit hidden,…read morelocated just off south US41 behind a gas station (Texaco?). Once you see it, a large mural of an Italian pizza maker holding up NY with the Italian flag splashed in the background, you know you've arrived. We were greeted even before we reached the door and offered a choice of dining inside or outdoors. They have a large outdoor area that is shielded from the parking lot, nice, but we opted to sit inside for some a/c. Our server was right over and got us started with drinks while we looked over the menu. She was so nice, attentive, helpful, and upbeat for the entire time we were there, a real pleasure. As for the food, we decided to split their Greek Salad and a Prosciutto Arugula 12" pizza. They offer both 12 and 18" pies. This was not the pizza I would have selected, I'm more a Meat Lovers Supreme carnivore, but it was my wife's choice tonight. I thought the salad was pretty standard, lots of Feta cheese and a generous amount of dressing in a container. My wife left me all the red onion slivers, maybe not her best decision, and took almost all of the olives. The salad was still fine, lots of green. Our pizza was also brightly green, what with all the arugula on top. Like more salad. But underneath was an excellent pizza crust, like they describe on their menu with a bit of NY char. While I missed all the greasy meat, the prosciutto was very flavorful, a top of the line ingredient. A hint of truffle oil added to the mix and pieces of a hard Parmesan cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano) added more. I have to admit, it was a pretty good pizza.

    We stopped in Capo Pazzo as the first stop of our six stop bolognese tour of Sarasota. My daughter…read moreLOVES bolognese! Although the bolognese was good, the pizza stole the show. Capo Pazzo's pizza might be the best I've ever eaten. Really, in my whole life!
