Demetrios' Restaurant & Pizza, Sarasota, Florida Restaurant Details

Food:

A group of 38 of us had reservations for a quick casual dinner prior to going to Siesta beach to watch the sun go down. There were only 2 cooks in the kitchen! Many of us had to wait one hour or longer for our dinner to be served. Several couple had one member served while the other waited for at least an additional 30-40 minutes before her dinner arrived. By the time one guest received her dinner, we were all leaving and she had to ask for a take out container!!! It was so bizarre and completely unacceptable. The staff was aware that we were planning our dinner there. They made NO attempt to appropriately plan for accommodating the size of our group. Consequently our experience was beyond BAD!!!
The food...once each received it...was quite good. I could never recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Food:

When my son was a young boy, he spotted this place and we've been coming back every time we visit. Excellent pizza, not to mention to melt in your mouth meatballs. I can't resist ordering the spaghetti and meatballs! Calzones are excellent too. THANK YOU DEMITRIO'S for always making memorable family vacations---it's not always easy to choose a restaurant where everyone agrees. Everyone in my family is always up for Demitrios!!

Food:

Lasagna and pasta were excellent, the pizza more than excellent, great service!!

Food:

My wife and I visited Demetrio's for lunch and had a nice meal. The waitress was friendly, the pizza was hot and tasty and was ready faster than expected.

I don't know about the rude wait staff that others mentioned in their reviews. Sometimes people reflect back the attitude that they receive from others. We were friendly and our waitress reflected that back in her service.

As far as decor, it was stereotypical of this kind of restaurant which added to the charm or this venue. It was clean and comfortable.

Food:

Great pizza. New menus at their location on 41. Pizza tasted better when we were there tonight. Something different than usual. Crust or cheese changed... It was good.

Overall it's a good place and always has been
