    Draft beer

    Wandering around Bradenton on a Sunday evening looking for a lite bite when everything seemed to be closing brought us to the loaded barrel. Bartender grabbed us a couple drinks and we looked over the menu. Ended up ordering a pepperoni pizza while we sipped our drinks. Pizza came out and the cheese was molten hot. Pizza was served on a stand at the bar with shakers of parmigiana and crushed red pepper. Bar is nicely lit and adorned with some signs for your entertainment. Bartender top notch and they're open to 2:30.

    THIS WOMAN IS A ROCKSTAR! It's my first time at this restaurant and the only place open late with food, and she is running the show by herself. 5 stars for miss Alyssa! So impressed with the bright smile and hard work ethic. Keep rocking girl, we WILL be back.

    Fast service, friendly bar tender. She was helpful and kind. Bar was cute, loved the decor, looked well organized. They serve pizza but we were in the mood for burgers; however they had an extensive variety of pizzas to offer!

    Full service bar, but only if you can get service.

    Great clean bar/tavern with nice prices BUT, pizza is terrible. And service is good if you sit at the bar and it's slow. Once the regulars arrive you are hard pressed to get service. We just wanted to pay our tab and trust me when I say we were interrupting their regular routine all the rudeness came out. I won't return here. Head to Motorworks Brewery or one of the many other downtown Bradenton bars who appreciate their customers.

    Keeps over cooking my garlic knots. Knots are supposed to be soft, not hard like pizza crust.

    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!
