Go for the 'Za

Hunting & Gathering

Every one of the heavily accented men and women who work at St. Armands gem Venezia act like your long-lost Italian grandmother, warm and smiling, affectionate and encouraging—encouraging you to eat your WHOLE pizza that is. And slice after slice you will undoubtedly scarf at the authentic Italian eatery (a St. Armands staple since the late '60s), with 'za that comes out bubbling and pungent, the pies placed on the table atop massive Roma tomato cans. Get a little crazy and order a Hawaiian—the classic choice comes overflowing with succulent pineapple chunks interspersed with paper-thin slices of cured ham. You'll smell the signature simmer of tropical sweet mixed with the ample helping of steamy cheese the moment your pizza rolls through the kitchen doors—the best part: eating the leftovers for breakfast the next morning. 

Venezia Italian Restaurant, 373 St. Armands Circle, Sarasota, 941-388-1400.
