- RRussellVIPTampa / Central Florida West •23 reviews5.0Dined on 14 Dec 2024Traverna Toscana Finally, an upscale restaurant bringing a touch of class to downtown Bradenton! My wife and I decided to venture out last Friday night to try the newly opened Traverna Toscana, and it did not disappoint. The executive chef’s carefully curated menu was impressive, with the octopus standing out as our favorite dish of the evening. My wife, who rarely tries such cuisine, was pleasantly astonished by how delicious it was. The complementary lemon butter sauce? Simply unbelievable—so good! There are several other enticing items on the menu that have us eager to return. The main course was equally well-prepared and enjoyable. I opted for the 33-day-aged ribeye, which featured the perfect balance of a beautifully seared crust and a juicy, flavorful center. Cooked to perfection, it was a highlight of the night. To accompany our meal, we chose the 2021 Jayson Pahlmeyer Napa red. While the wine was delicious, it felt slightly overpriced—perhaps the Caymus would have been a better value. We ended the night with a lemon cheesecake, and all I can say is: WOW! If you’re looking for a wonderful dining experience in Bradenton, I highly recommend trying Traverna Toscana. This gem is sure to impress!More infoTaverna ToscanaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Bradenton•4.5
- DDaveNebraska •1 review5.0Dined on 14 Dec 2024Prompt seating through Open Table app. Quaint restaurant on the main thorough fair in Palmetto. We had two couples and started with salads. The waiter was very receptive to splitting the generous sized salads into separate bowls. Our guests had the veal medallions in a yummy sauce and the special lasagna they were offering that night. We had veal parm and their special linguini with porcini mushrooms and Italian sausage. Both were outstanding with generous portions. We were all impressed to say the least. I am hesitant to write a nice review for fear of not getting a seat next time around but they deserve to have their service and food promoted.More infoRagù cucina italianaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Palmetto•4.6

Discover Bradenton
While most people know Bradenton, Florida, for its soft sandy beaches, crystal-clear water and brightly colored beach shacks, local farmers are raising some of Florida's best produce and livestock just a couple of miles to the west. Oranges grown nearby appear in dishes in many different Bradenton restaurants; try spiced orange salads and salmon served with orange and fennel sauce. Area farmers also grow strawberries, allowing restaurants to frequently obtain them the same day they are picked to create strawberry cakes and strawberry cream tortes. Many dining establishments in the area also feature wines produced from the grapes grown in the local vicinity. Since many restaurants in Bradenton are owned and operated by private individuals, you are assured of a warm welcome because they are glad that you chose to stop by and see them.
