Puccini's

Puccini's is a boutique Italian restaurant bringing authentic and rustic homemade dishes and served in a candlelit, romantic atmosphere.  You can bring your own spirits and watch the chef prepare your meal and savor the flavors of fine Italian food while spending a beautiful evening with beautiful food and beautiful music. Enjoy intimate and casual dining and modern Italian fare at our passionate restaurant in Sarasota, Florida.    You can bring in your own bottle to enjoy with your dinner. We have glasses and openers for your convenience. There is no corkage fee and we will not be getting a liquor license EVER!  We want YOU to worry about the wine and let us concentrate on the food!                    Richard's father Lareto would play his mandolin every night after supper when Richard was growing up and while dining at Puccini's you will hear soft arias of opera and Italian folk music.  And don't be surprised when our beautiful and talented opera singer Johanna Fincher stops by frequently to shower us with her heavenly voice.
