Cacio Italian Bistro

Cacio Italian Bistro is an Italian restaurant known for homemade pasta made daily, with dishes such as tonnarelli cacio e pepe, lobster ravioli, and gnocchi with gorgonzola fondue. The menu also includes antipasti like polpette al pomodoro and burrata, a few meat and seafood entrees, and a wine list of Italian bottles chosen by the owners. The name refers to cacio, the Roman word for cheese, and the kitchen draws on family recipes from Rome.

The bistro is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings and closed Sunday and Monday. Reservations can be made through the website, and gluten-free gnocchi is available in place of any pasta dish on request. The restaurant also offers catering and gift cards. It is on Clark Road in Sarasota.
