Margarita

So glad I finally discovered Tralia in Gulf Gate! Easily some of the best pizza I've had in Sarasota. We tried the Detroit-style Roni & Hot Honey, with pepperoni and Hot Honey, and it was absolutely fantastic -- crispy, flavorful, and the perfect combination of savory, spicy, and sweet. Tralia has also earned a well-deserved spot in the Michelin Guide, and after trying it, we can see why! If you haven't discovered this Gulf Gate gem yet, definitely put it on your list. We'll absolutely be back!

Polenta chicken
Laura P.

This place is off the path but once you get in it's awesome. We like everything we had and the bartender made great recommendations. The provolone rings are so good and the polenta chicken is the bomb. The pizza was delish my bf had to tralia os and they were good too. Get the garlic cream to dip crust in so good. The thin crust was my fave too.

Ricotta meatballs
Arnieliz S.

Arrived for our mini get away and stopped by for lunch. There was available seating however filled up pretty quick shortly after. Definitely come early if you can. We started with the ceasar salad, my husband is a big fan of ceasar salad, he said it was delicious and quickly finished it. Then we ordered the rounded funghi pizza, and it was very yummy and finished that as well. We're usually pack lots of left overs but the pizza was devoured. We tried the polenta fried chicken, it wasn't what we thought and was pretty hard to eat. So we tried the ricotta meatballs, which def made up for our previous dish. FYI: If you're looking for the creamy polenta, go for the ricotta meatballs. We mistakenly thought the polenta fried chicken had creamy polenta.

Classic Chicago style

Michelin recommended !! We could not get reservations as they were fully booked one month in advance so we winged it and walked in. We were a party of 9 Told us it was a two hour wait. So we waited Was it worth the wait you may ask??? YES. YES YES YES started out with the meatballs, best I have ever tasted. Next we had the provolone rings DELICIOUS crispy rings of cheese what more could you ask for? Cesar's salad was topped high with shaved parm amazing We ordered 6 pizza all Chicago style The classic and MVP CRISPY edges filled with the most delicious sauces Ambiance was very nice simple decor

Hot honey and pepperoni
Dan B.

We used to go to 99 bottles for Anthony"s pizza , but when he opened in Gulf Gate the first time we weren't fans.... scroll forward to this new place and have to say it's def the best pizza in town Again ! Terrific flavors and crust (we had hot honey pepperoni and the funghi (mushroom) with sausage). Panda Cotta for dessert - very well done. It's at the top of my local pizza list !! The place was well appointed and a proper dining area nicely decorated and subdued. Music was a bit loud, but manageable. Service was informed and friendly.

3/5 Stars (6/10) - Underwhelming for a Michelin-Rated Spot I was really excited to try this place given its reputation, but unfortunately, the meal didn't live up to the hype. The Salad: We ordered two salads based on photos showing fresh, shredded cheese on top. What we received looked and tasted like pre-shaken cheese--a noticeable drop in quality from what was advertised. The Pizza: The main issue was consistency. Every slice seemed cooked differently, leading to a weird mix of textures and flavors across the same pie. For a restaurant with this level of acclaim, I expected much better quality control and attention to detail.

Detroit Classic (maybe?)
Meghan R.

Super glad we got to try this place! Randomly popped in without a resy because we were on vacay and they were able to seat us at the bar. We went simple with a basic cheese Detroit style pizza and beers. Very happy with the pizza as it's been years since I've had Detroit style. The edges were perfectly crispy. Would definitely come back and try other flavors if we lived here.

Wife and I stopped here on the way to siesta key because we saw it was was on the Michelin guide. I would recommend making this a stop as food was great and definitely has a menu that wants us to try more next time we're in the area. We ordered the caesar salad, funghi artisan pizza, polenta fried chicken, and the meatballs. Caesar salad was amazing! I love caesar salad and this is in my top 3. My only regret was not adding the parmesan chicken. Funghi pizza was fantastic and was perfect as a artisan pizza. We're not always fans of Detroit pizza style so love you can get any pizza as an artisan round pizza Meatballs were good, loved the creamy polenta and complemented the marina and meatball perfectly. The polenta friend chicken was our least favorite. Chicken was very fried and sometime to tough to eat. Sounded good on menu but was not our fav. Other then that everything else was good and we definitely want to go back to try different things.

Detroit Classic

We decided to try Tralia on a Saturday afternoon and we got in. The restaurant is located in the same Location as my favorite taco place, the screaming goat that closed a few years ago. The restaurant is a little bigger since they added some seating. We were warmly greeted and got a 2 seater bench seat. The bar stools are a little lower than the bench, so my wife got to be taller than me . Ok, on to the food. We split the Caesar Salad and it was very good. We both decided to go with the Detroit style since our favorite pizza in the USA is still Buddy's Pizza in Detroit. My wife got the Classic and it was very good. I had the Supreme and while the cook was perfect, my pie lacked enough meat, still very good just not next level IMO. On our next visit, we will try the rounds. Service and overall hospitality were excellent. Only 1 picture since my wife had to be my photographer, a job she hated.

If I could give more than five stars I would! If there's a wait in the off-season, I can't imagine what it's like in season. If you have the opportunity to make a reservation do so, it's small inside, including the bar, which has some seating but not enough to linger at. We had to wait 45 minutes-ish for a table and it was well worth it. While we were waiting, we went to the bar to have a couple drinks. My husband had a beer and the selection was OK, I had the lemoncello spritz, which was so refreshing. Once we got to our table, there were three of us, and we all were greeted by the most friendly server. We ordered a Caesar salad, which was mounded with Parmesan and tossed with light Caesar dressing. The Caesar dressing didn't leave a heavy taste in my mouth and that was a first. For dinner we had Detroit style pizza with pepperoni, banana peppers, and mushroom and I could actually taste each one since it wasn't overpowered by sauce. The dough was so fluffy and light and the cheesy crust exterior was delicious. The sauce was generous and not too spicy that you could taste each ingredient from the tomatoes to the pepper to the seasonings, oregano etc. Yes, people complain about the size of the Detroit style pizza and the price however, if you've ever eaten high end Detroit style like this, you would know they are not very big and they are pricey, but worth the cost. If you want cheap go to one of the chains pay your $10 but you won't get that here. For dessert we had one of the best tiramisu I've ever had. The ladyfingers were crispy not soggy so they could support the espresso and cream that came along with it as tiramisu usually does. I've always had soggy tiramisu where the ladyfingers have been sitting in the custard for so long that they just become gooey and fall apart. This was fresh and absolutely delicious. We took our leftovers to go and I ended up eating another slice of pizza in the morning for breakfast because I couldn't stop thinking about how delicious it was. Shout out to Nick, who actually was hustling all over the restaurant doing chore after chore. Not that the rest of the staff weren't doing a fabulous job. However, at one point Nick had to run across the street with a bucket of ice just to make sure that the patrons were happy and hydrated. Also, thank you Nick for taking the time during a busy dinner hour to chat and answer a few of our questions.

Located in Gulf Gate among many other pizza restaurants. We started out with a Caesar Salad that was covered with finely shredded cheese. Excellent! They have two types of pizza an Artisan and a Sicilian. I opted for the Sicilian with cup char pepperoni and a honey tomato sauce. The sauce was too tomatoey for my taste and there was much pepperoni so it was hard to taste it. The crust was ok and the edges had baked cheese . Can't say I enjoyed the pizza.My wife ordered Chicken Parm. A huge piece of breaded chicken covered with sauce and cheese. The chicken was very tender and she enjoyed the dish. Service was very good and just a very plain interior with high top tables and regular tables. I will return and try the Artisan pizza to see if I like it better..

Deep dish. Half vodka and hot honey
Jessica P.

Took the family out here for dinner! I walk past it every day; saw it got rated Michelin 2026. We made a 415 reservation to avoid lines. Walked right in and sat at our table. Was already 70% full. Ambience was good. Wait staff was friendly and fast. We ordered a lot and it all came super quickly, hot and tasted delicious ! Family loved it!! We ate and were in and out in 45 mins. My family eats super quickly but they even took home left overs and are excited to eat them. Go here and try it all!

Highly recommend this place, the pizza is delicious. We were stopping by siesta key and found this pizza place on Google with great reviews. My absolute favorite pizza is Detroit style. We got a regular vodka pizza with caramelized onions and a Detroit style with meatballs and ricotta. They originally forgot our ricotta which isn't a big deal. The regular pizza with the vodka sauce was OUTSTANDING. 10/10 would get again. I was unsure if I would like the vodka sauce on pizza but it was so good! The crust was fluffy and delicious- just how I like it. The Detroit style, unfortunately, didn't impress me as much as the regular pizza. I love red sauce, but their marinara was not my favorite- slightly sweet but lacked depth. The whole pizza just didn't have as much flavor as I would like. It was not terrible but I would probably opt for a different type of Detroit (maybe vodka) or just go for the regular pizza. Still VERY solid choice if you're in the area!

The Cottage in Siesta Key, Sarasota, is definitely worth a visit!…read more The food was absolutely delicious! We ordered the mussels, which came in a flavorful, buttery broth with toasted garlic bread that was perfect for dipping. The sushi was beautifully presented, loaded with flavor, and just as good as it looked! I personally would skip the sushi roll I'm from California and there wasn't any spectacular about it! The cocktails were refreshing, the presentation was on point, and the tropical atmosphere made the entire experience even better. Such a cute spot with great vibes, perfect for a night out! If you're visiting Siesta Key, I definitely recommend adding The Cottage to your list.

We booked this place via OpenTable since it received great reviews. We ended up parking next door…read moresince parking was a bit hard to navigate. The parking place had ample parking where you needed a mobile app to pay for your parking. There was a larger souvenir store there if you needed to kill time before your seating. Once it was our time for our dinner reservations, we were greeted and seated at our table. Our waitress was a bit sarcastic or had a witty comments that didn't sit well with my kids. When ordering our foods, the kids asked what type of drinks they had since it was not listed on the menu. She said Coke but didn't elaborate that they had Coke products. Since she said Coke so fast our daughter didn't hear the response and asked her the question again where she just said that's a great question and ignored her and moved on. Food wise - we had the Peruvian ceviche, Peruvian chicken, I think I had a special grouper dish. The food was good. We were able to eat everything and the kids enjoyed their kids burger meals. Outside of the waitress comments, the place placed nice modern music to listen to and had the basketballs games playing on the tv at the bar.

I had a very negative experience with the manager at this restaurant on the evening of 9/5/26…read more I came in to pick up an order, only to find out that a delivery driver had already picked it up. I was immediately told that this was a "customer problem" and not the restaurant's responsibility. I found that statement to be very offensive and dismissive. I explained that I understand very well how Uber and DoorDash work and that when orders are handed to drivers without verifying the pickup, it creates an opportunity for orders to be stolen. In fact, TWO separate orders were picked up by the same driver. That raises a serious concern about how orders are being verified before they are handed out. Rather than listening to what I was explaining, the manager became extremely rude and spoke to me in a condescending and disrespectful manner. He told me he didn't need to hear it, got in my face, and told me to leave while smiling and giving me a dismissive little wave goodbye. I was not disrespectful; I was very direct while trying to explain the situation and why this happens. Being treated this way in front of other customers and staff was extremely hurtful and humiliating. Regardless of who ultimately loses money from a stolen order, everyone is affected: the customer, the restaurant, Uber/DoorDash, and the legitimate driver who arrives to pick up the order. This also hurts honest delivery drivers who take their jobs seriously and do the right thing. Drivers like myself rely on restaurants to properly verify orders so that when we arrive to pick up a customer's already-paid-for order, we aren't blamed for something another driver did. We should not be treated as though we are all part of the problem simply because we work through a delivery platform. I have never had an issue with this restaurant before, which makes this experience even more disappointing. Drivers are also customers of your business and play a role in bringing business to your restaurant. A manager should be able to handle a situation like this without becoming confrontational with someone who is simply trying to explain what happened. A customer is a customer, regardless of whether they are dining inside the restaurant, ordering through an app, or having their food delivered. A delivery customer is not beneath you and should never be treated as though they are less important. Because of the way I was treated, I will not be picking up any personal food orders or deliveries from this restaurant again, and I will not be recommending it to anyone. Businesses depend on customers and delivery drivers, and the way people are treated can affect whether they choose to return. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from that will treat customers and drivers with respect at all times. Completely unacceptable!
