Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Rotonda

Beautiful space with delicious food! Service was on point.

We a had a great family dinner. We even brought our 17 month old granddaughter, who enjoyed her dinner too! The French onion soup, lobster bisque, steak, ahi tuna, scallops and Chilean sea bass were very good. Service was very good. We’ll be back.

Excellent as always. A beautiful day and dining experience. Only wish we could come more often than during our winter escape from Illinois.

My husband and I enjoyed a birthday luncheon at Ulele. It is one of our favorite restaurants in the Tampa Bay Area. The menu is unique and delicious. Our waiter was excellent. Nothing but great things to say about this restaurant.

A+ for Apulia! We ventured out to Placida to dine at Apulia, we have had several positive recommendations regarding Apulia, we were not disappointed! We had an amazing dinning experience. Every aspect was spot on, very welcoming staff, comfortable seating and pleasant decor, more importantly the cuisine. We started our visit with a couple of Negroni cocktails, well balanced and enjoyable. We began our dinning experience with the perfectly crispy fried Calamari, very tender Calamari robed in a very delicate yet crispy coating, not a heavy batter or breading, perfectly flash fried. Our next course was a Romana Salad, very similar to a Caesar, creamy, very fresh without the vinegar taste many other restaurants use. This Salad was so enjoyable I could have made it my meal. We next ordered the Cappellacci, a Lobster Ravioli in a Vodka cream sauce that tasted akin to a Lobster bisque, nice pieces of Lobster as well, we both had our forks in this dish, we thoroughly enjoyed it. We also had the Tonnarelli which is squid ink pasta in a wildly flavorful Puttenesca sauce, a variety of olives, plump shrimp cooked to a turn. This dish was very authentic and would definitely order again. The deserts were too enticing to pass up, we shared the Semifreddo Blanco, perfect ending to our meal, not overly sweet, very palate pleasing. My wife had a Espresso Martini, again a perfect pour. Excellent wine list, we had a Cabernet Sauvigon 4 Bears from Paso Robles. Service by Sarah and Nicole was impeccable, friendly and informative. It was a pleasure to have a nice conversation with Michael the manager as well. Really have to make sure the Chef and staff get their accolades, they presented us with a beautiful, delicious dinning experience. This was our first visit and we are sure to make Apulia a regular choice! Apulia is located in Placida.
