For me, I couldn't put the book down and the read provided me a valuable history lesson and changed my approach to buying and using the "Sacred Fruit". The author and owner of Venice Oil company is an internationally published food author. All olive oil is not created equally, fancy packaging, high priced grocery store oils may not pass a test as genuine, thus wasting your hard earned money and missing the benefits of pure oil. The Venice Oil company is located on the Island, staff members are informed, helpful as well as pleasant as you peruse a myriad of oils and store items. Next time it becomes time to purchase Olive Oil, go past go and go to the island. Along with your oil purchase buy the book it enriches your understanding of a food product that is really more than a food product. I am not associated with the store in any manner nor have I ever met the owner/author.

In Season, Saturday, March 21, 2026 - Two for take out lunch for the beach…read more My wife has been bragging about these folks for months so we thought to stop in and see how they are for a few sandwiches?! VERY GOOD is the short answer! My wife got the Polo Toscano - grilled chicken on an awesome sourdough bread that I believe comes in from New Jersey? She decided to take a little bite in their roomy parking lot!!!! AND the result was we did not make it over KMI/Hatchett Creek Bridge heading to Nokomis Beach..... I got the "stump"/end of the bread with a little bit of chicken / cheese etc. So will have to go by her assessment. 9/10 I got the Lukie - portabella, asparagus, zucchini, roasted red pepper cheese (provolone and they let me try a piece before they made the sandwich!!! WOW that is no Dietz & Watson or Publix brand cheese - right out of the Italian market in NY or Philly!!) They put balsamic and oil on and the veggies were sauté etc. And there in was the only issue. Flavor and ALL ingredients were great....... but the sourdough bread was a soggy sponge by the time I cracked it open on the beach about 30 minutes later. The vinegar, the liquids from the sauté, the oils and etc. I WILL be going back for this exact thing next time, BUT will get it "dry" or dressing on the side. I picked it apart and threw well over 1/2 the roll in the trash. 5/10 Really good first visit for me and EASY PEASY fix so check back on my update...... OR go there yourself and find out how great they are! I spoke to a few friends and the overwhelming feedback was very good food and selection....but prices are a bit high for a deli/takeout.

Do not skip out on the pistachio bomb (not on the menu, yet offered often as a special)... I could eat the whole thing myself as a meal! It is what I believe to be lebneh with spices, pistachios, roasted red peppers, and olive oil served with fluffy pita triangles. My go to entree are the chicken kebabs with French fries (super crispy outside, pillowy soft inside), which comes with a salad. The staff is fantastic! My Dad was on a strict grain free diet, and our server without being asked or hesitating, brought him crudités so he could enjoy the pistachio bomb! Finish your meal with their coffee, and if you're lucky, the staff member who "reads the grinds" may be there!

The private event began with sparkling Prosecco and quickly evolved into a delightful culinary experience. We crafted a decadent tiramisu infused with limoncello and learned the art of handmade pasta from scratch. While the kitchen staff prepared our meal, we savored an array of exquisite appetizers and indulged in generous wine pairings. The evening was enhanced by the owner's live guitar performance of traditional Italian melodies, creating an authentic atmosphere. We gained fascinating insights into their olive oil production and learned about their unique olive and grape harvesting tours. This charming Sarasota establishment truly captures the essence of Italian culture and hospitality. The staff, particularly store manager Amy, were exceptional hosts. We were so impressed that we're already planning to attend another class and are inspired to book a future trip to Italy through their organization. Mazzone Olive Oil has undoubtedly become our new favorite local culinary destination.
