The Blasé Martini Bar & 3.14 Pi Pizza

Great vibes 🤩 This place is so classy but laid back at the same time. It’s not your typical beach bar because the service is top-tier. We LOVED the espresso martini & chocolate martini. The pizza was good and I am obsessed with the grilled Brussel sprouts. Cant go wrong with the wings & stay for the live music! Coming back for sure 💁🏻‍♀️

Each time I visit this establishment gets worse. I used to love it, but the last two times it’s been lousy. A few weeks ago I sat at an outdoor table with my daughter and we were never acknowledged or waited in. Moved inside to the bar and the bartender was ok, the place itself needs a DEEP clean. The menu is no longer making the many varieties of martinis they used to. We ordered some drinks and a small pizza to go, the pizza was just ok. It’s too bad that the place has gone downhill, as I used to really enjoy visiting.

Came here for drinks and stayed for dinner too!! Awesome service and attention to detail!! A big shout out to Madison the bartender for making excellent rum runners!! Another gentleman made my Tiramisu martini and it was divine!! Cheesesteak and Brussels were delicious. The live band kept the party going with some great hits!

Best lemon drop martini’s in Sarasota! Great atmosphere! I love the band that was playing. Our server, Halleigh, was the sweetest server!! The manager, Rebecca, is amazing and checked on us. Great place for martinis and their pizza!

This place was a must stop to see The Whole Band play. Somehow they lost this band and the crowd that come with them. Pizza is decent. Drinks are small and pricey. Staff not terribly friendly. It was empty.

Henry is amazing. Easily best bartender we've ever had. Guy knows how to make a drink and has so much flair it's really exciting to watch him craft the drink. Wonderful experience and fantastic people! Came back a couple days later and Jimmy was not as cool as Henry, at all!

Blasé is one of our favorites on Siesta Key. Today we went to the bar and were instantly greeted by Kristen who was very friendly and attentive.The drinks were delicious. We highly recommend Blasé when on Siesta Key. Be sure to ask for Kristen!

June 2022 Update: Horrible service. Brandi had me waiting for over 10 minutes for a menu. She was apparently incapable of bringing the menu she said she would in between getting drinks and orders for two tables of two - one on inside and one on out. When I went inside she was chit-chating with the bartender. October 2021: I chose to check them out due to the high-scoring reviews! I plan to be back soon! Drinks:The Expresso and Salted Caramel martinis were fabulous! I don't believe there is a bad martini at this place. The bartender is very talented and has a great personality. Food: The food was also delicious. Unfortunately they were out of tuna, so I was unable to get the tuna poke salad. I got the 1997 salad with grilled shrimp. I was notified when seated that the chef was new and started a couple of days before. My one complaint was that the salad did not have the pecans, as described on the paper menu and online, nor was I told they would not be in my salad. Nonetheless, the grilled shrimp was cooked perfectly and the tiramisu donuts were delicious (think funnel cake that tastes like tiramisu). Music: There is live music Thursdays outside, which I hadn't known until I arrived. I enjoyed it so much that like others I danced my way away as I left. Service: The waitress was attentive and gave service with a smile (even though she appeared somewhat tired). I truly appreciated her efforts and that she kept her smile going.

Espresso martini is to die for! We were staying on Siesta Key for our wedding & honeymoon. After I tried their espresso martini during happy hour, I went back the following 3 days in a row because I couldn't stop thinking about how yummy they were!

Stopped in for a drink and were excited to see a small happy hour menu which included an espresso martini. The cocktails were made quickly and tasted great. There was plenty of seating inside and lots of seating outside along with some live music.

It was very loud when we arrived at Blasé, their outdoor seating was full and the band was rockin'. We were meeting friends who held a small table for us, knowing we wanted to eat. I checked inside and discovered there is a bar but no real indoor seating aside from a few stools at the bar. I asked and learned outdoor servers were very good at checking with tables in their section. She was right, our server stopped by after a few minutes and she was very good and a true pleasure. Blasé and a second business next door, 3.14 Pi Craft Beer & Spirit, are really as one when it comes to the food. Blasé lists lots of pizzas on their menu and I decided on their Island Supreme. It's listed as a sausage, pepperoni, green peppers, mushrooms, onions, and black olives pie. I got a large in case others wanted a slice, and in about 20 minutes it arrived. The pie was delicious, thin crust so it was easy to eat slice after slice. I admit I was preoccupied with all the stuff going on with the band and the very active dance floor and the loud discussions, so I didn't pay particular attention to my food. Normally I'd at least make sure all the ingredients were included but for this meal, I just ate and enjoyed my food.

Food ok , but they are know for their MARTINIS!!! pizza next store) that they supply. Service is very very good. Known too for their music..... especially Bri Rivera , the last Saturday of the month. The Latin flare enhances the evening

Had an amazing dirty martini, and my husband had the peanut butter martini- absolutely amazing, and quick friendly service even during a crazy night during spring break.

This place is great! Definitely check out the interior it is awesome! The patio area is also great, live music most nights (and dog friendly). The martinis do not disappoint! Nice menu offering, the food was delicious. If you like brussel sprouts you'll love the appetizer. The service is great, fast and friendly.

Best wings! Best martinis! But this place is very dirty ... you'll see big dust balls under the seats at the inside bars. Worse are the bathrooms... there was a dirty dirty ring in the toilet bowl in the ladies room that must have been accumulating for weeks. I mean, it was growing! We were just there about 2 weeks ago - very disgusting. If the public bathrooms are this dirty, you can only imagine what the kitchen looks like (behind the scenes). We are reluctant to go back, even though we liked the food and drinks. It's a conundrum.

We showed up on a quiet Wednesday evening but we're delighted when we were welcomed by such a friendly staff and so many outdoor seating options! The menu has probably 100 different kinds of martinis to try, all very creative from your chocolate covered strawberry to a lemon drop. I'm a classic espresso martini fan and they were made perfectly. Thank you to the friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Truffle fries were a tasty snack too. This place also has live music sometimes too- come check it out!

Checked this place out one night as a night cap. Had a martini and the hubby some whiskey. It wasn't bad, the music definitely made the place better. Service was fast and good.

We spend about two weeks in Siesta Key every year and this is a regular stop several times throughout the trip. Every martini there is crafted like a fine dessert. The servers are kind and attentive, and the live music in the evenings is spot on. This time we got a little bit hungry around 10 PM and ordered a white pizza from Pi next door. It was delicious and came out fresh and hot. You can't go wrong with an evening here at blasé!

Not a fancy spot but good food and drinks. Some pretty interesting martinis and other drinks too. Pizza was good, we tried BBQ chicken, had a good crust to topping ratio. Service was a tad slow but they seemed to have only 1 bartender and 1 waiter. They were both very polite but also busy. Overall we enjoyed it and would give it another shot. Oh yeah; and truffles fries!

The management there is horrible. We were there with a large group and ask to put the tables together and were told no unless we wanted one bill. They were just too lazy to split the bill. We will not be back.

I am not a martini person, but I do like skrewball peanut butter whiskey. Their peanut butta cup martini is the best drink ever made. My wife had an espresso martini and it was excellent as well.

Perfect watering hole and spot for a night of live entertainment. Not sure if I'd go for the food but certainly stay for the drink and music

The service here is exceptional. The bartender was willing to make customizations to any of the already perfect in Martinis. She made for both of us, and as you can see, mine is quite lovely to just gaze upon. She also was very casual and you could tell she's very experienced in her job, so I ultimately felt very comfortable in this cave like atmosphere, with an equal part pub drinking ask because of all the wood furniture and bars off. Anytime I'm in siesta key. I'll be stopping here for a martini. Can't wait to go back. Thank you

Loved The Blase Cafe & Martini Bar. Sam the bartender was amazing she made the best drinks! The pizza was amazing

Unless you want to wait an hour for a salad, DON'T COME HERE TO EAT!!! Came for drinks and dinner. Will say, drinks are pretty good (strong and tasty) and came at a good pace. However, the dinner was something you see out of an operations class nightmare! We ordered 2 pizzas, a salad, and a sandwich. I have worked at a restaurant for over a year before, their operations were a MESS!!! Kept being told 15 minutes for the pizzas, at least twice. (News flash 15x2=30)!! Really should not take an hour for a salad, and nothing else came. Band was subpar and annoying us more than anything with their okay renditions of 70s songs. We ended up leaving at the ~1:15 hour mark after a fight with the manager. Left without paying a penny to the restaurant (but of course tipping the waitress as she was incredibly sweet and none of it was truly her fault). At least we made friends with those sitting around us, bonding over a horrible experience, and later *conveniently* all ending up at the same pizza place down the street. My recommendation, go to Ripfire Pizza & BBQ right down the street. Went there after because we still needed to eat dinner. Staff were lovely, pizza came out quickly, and was absolutely delicious! Another quick note, we came here for dinner on a Wednesday in the off-season, I cannot imagine what the weekend looks like, especially during the summer! Not to mention that there are so many restaurants on the same street. Surprised they are still in business....

We loooove this place. It's so chic, the drinks are delicious and unique, and their gd garlic knots...

I don't like giving bad reviews, just wanted to share my experience. Went there last night after dinner for some drinks, but the bartender did not take our orders. We went up to the bar, waited patiently to place our order, but she did not even acknowledge us. We noticed other people got there after us, the bartender took their orders right away. She even asked a couple next to us if they wanted a 2nd drink, but did not saying to us. We ended up leaving and went to Gilligan's. The service was sooo much better there.

Friday Night Music is always fun!!! Menu has changed to match Pi Pizza. (Great baked wings!) But drink menu is the same!

We'd give it a negative number if available. Had dinner reservations for 8. They didn't know what to do with that information. Waited for them to put together a table. 15 minutes before server showed to take drink order. Drinks took 30 minutes to arrive. Drinks were awful. Missing ingredients in several of the Martini's (their claimed specialty) Server came back 20 minutes later & stated 1/2 or more of menu items not available. We took a chance anyway as every other restaurant was an hour wait. Ordered. 30 min later server says Kitchen is closed. Really?? We noticed the table next to us up and left frustrated. To add, the place is dirty, bathrooms dirty & smelled really bad. Their only saving grace is the live music. Years back (Google their menu) this place offered gourmet food and was a well managed establishment. Sad, not anymore.

To say this is a dive is a stretch. It feels more like a vacant project house from The Wire. It's SOOOO filthy. You have to very careful when in this place. It's clientele are some of the seediest drinks and sketchiest local degenerates on the Gulf side of Florida. Its staff is not much of a departure from its clientele either. It's not a good place to find yourself drinking, you have made a life mistake if you do Pizza is okay. Service is okay sometimes. Music is amazing -- live band is strong every night. All in all stay far away.

After several years of going to Blase for cocktails, usually good music and historical good pizza, I am taking this place off my list. Apparently under new ownership, the pizza is not at all the same or as good as it use to be. Crust is flat, little taste, and very skimpy on the toppings. The service is average at best (which other than the bartenders has typically been the case), and the solo lady music entertainment yesterday evening was truly 'nails on the chalkboard'. And finally, and perhaps the biggest is the horrendous, disgusting, filthy bathrooms. College bars have better restrooms facilities than this place!! This has turned into an embarrassing establishment for Siesta village standards. If you can't afford to remodel the bathrooms and keep them clean during your open hours, then hand the reins over to someone who will.

Amazing Martinis SIESTA JOY Siesta Key Toasted Coconut Rum. Amaretto Creme De Cacao, Cream, Coconut Flakes $13

Ice cream was amazing!! Super creamy!You can split two flavors with any size! And the staff were very kind and hospitable. A+

Fun live music vibes, great service. You've gotta try one of their fun drinks like the Twix martini.

First real visit here. Super busy location! Like crazy busy! And the bartender, Makayla, didn't miss a beat!! She was attentive and made amazing martinis all the while being slammed!! Love it when restaurants have amazing bartenders! Thank you to Makayla! We will be back!!

Great outdoor space and off the beaten path so it wasn't packed but the drinks were just ok and the music was horrible. If you are a martini fan, lower your expectations. My Bees Knees was a 3 out of 5 and my husbands dirty martini was the same.

I'm writing this review as I sit at an outdoor table at The Blasé Cafe. My boyfriend and I were drawn here for the live music. The hostess said we could seat ourselves because it wasn't busy and she'd bring us menus, but upon getting our table, no one came to serve us or even give us menus. I went inside to ask someone to help us but the host stand was unattended. After asking the bartender to send over a server, we got menus and waters. It's been 15 minutes since that happened and no one has come to take our order. Safe to say we're leaving! EDIT: before we left, a server came and placed cheese sticks on our table (which we didn't order). We thought it was a dish from the house to apologize for the horrible service, but really, he gave us another table's order. He proceeded to take the food from our table, give it to them, and then still didn't take our order! I'm seriously embarrassed for them... don't waste your money here, support one of the other awesome bars in Siesta Key Village.

Blasé and Pi have been " all over the map" for years. It's under new ownership as of this past year so it's going to take time for the new influence to take affect. That being said: Pros; live music! Good pizza in Pi. Yummy martinis in Blasé. New tiki roof is great improvement! Cons: lighting under the new tiki is WAY too bright. Feels like a cafeteria. The band on Thursday, which is typically good (The Dirty Birds), are known to take very long breaks (so people leave and go next door). The tables outside are cheesy. There is only one high top table (which everyone covets).

The music is normally above average & fun. The food & service is terrible. Come for the drinks and music ... not the food or service! Going steadily downhill.

We come here every time we are on vacation because the food WAS great. We can over look the service (usually bad because they have no staff)...: yep this time the food is just as bad as the service- the server told us Cynthia died. --- Brussel sprouts no longer have feta cheese instead is drenched In Honey & half the portion as normal ....same with cauliflower appetizer that was very disappointing. Which was a favorite in the past - Just not the same - spend money on the wait staff instead of live music - the music brings people in that your one bartender and one server can't accommodate. - sad .. this place has so much potential

Amazing place! Drinks and food are on point. Great prices. Atmosphere is perfect. Henry our bartender was incredibly helpful and very attentive. Highly recommend and we will be back.

We had the strawberry shortcake and espresso martini with Madison and it was amazing!

We've been meaning to come here every year we visit Siesta Key. By luck we showed up when a party was a no show and got their table which faced the band- Lady B and the Buzz.If you get a chance to catch these talented and fun musicians, GO! Our server was helpful and funny. 3 standouts were Pasta Cynthia, Thai coconut chicken wraps and the homemade Key Lime pie!

What a fun, lovely, lively place to hang out, listen to a great live band AND have delicious food! The Brick Chick with Arugula salad was delish but I couldn't finish it because I ate so much of the damn Gorgonzola Artichoke appetizer. But who can blame me really LOL!! Thank you to our delightful, charming and attentive waiter Johnny. You were awesome. Xoxo Kim and Ed from Philly.

Great, friendly service! Live music can't be beat. Any night of the week is always fun on the island but I highly recommend this hot spot.

This restaurant is... blasé. It's a good restaurant if you like carbs. I ordered the artichoke mushroom gorganzola. There were 3 stuffed mushrooms with tons of garlic bread! It was good but too few stuffed mushrooms. Their hummos came with soggy vegetables. Again lots of bread. I would give them 1 star but our waitress was superb!

Great martinis with fun atmosphere. Live entertainment outside with seating and room for dancing. Lots of energy. If you are looking for good drinks and entertainment stop here.

Dog shit service the lady with the crooked neck lady she was very bad we were waiting 2hr and she never put the food in after 2hr the worst fire that lady

We arrived, a four top and we were going to sit, have some drinks and maybe an appetizer. We were instructed we can sit at the inside bar or the outside bar, not the tables.. directly in front of the music, which is literally the only reason to go to this place. We did not have a waitress or waiter we had whoever was around and after they were done serving their guests they might ask us what we want and was super disappointed and then turned into a dick because we did not order drinks. We did not order drinks because we had gone up to the bar and served ourselves. I know I know the dick waiter was pissed because those didn't rack up his bill thus creating a bigger tip, but tough luck we were sick of waiting for a member of the wait staff, so... We ended up ordering two salads, jerk satay, and a order of fries. The satay never came and the salads were dry and sucked.

****Cocktail review only**** A strange, little place at the edge of Siesta Key village. The atmosphere is dark and eclectic. Whenever we travel to Siesta Key, I have to have a "Siesta Joy" martini. It's the best! The restaraunt does not have family-oriented atmosphere, but offers live music starting at 7pm. Definitely worth checking out and having a drink!

With all the wonderful restaurants in Siesta Key, I don't quite get this place for dining. It's located in a strip mall next to a pizza joint and the Fudge Factory. An outdoor seating area overlooks the parking lot. The wine was warm. The Manhattan was much better. Pasta Cynthia was a hearty bowl of bow tie pasta, asparagus & mushrooms. The filet was chewy and served with mediocre sides. I'd suggest stopping by for a martini and maybe an app. Although we passed, options included a cheese board, Ahi tuna and a Gorgonzola dip.

This is the worst food I have ever tasted. Looks worse then dominos pizza and taste awful. I was starving and this was awful. I am from NY and I am so confused why this place has 4.5 stars or a singular star. My vegan friend got cheese and vegetables and wasn't able to eat and forgot parts of our order. My friend also has a deadly peanut allergy and when we asked the waiter if it had peanuts she responded w a shrug and laughed, service was atrocious. We had to go out and buy our own drink bc they had nothing. The bar tenders and waiters are smoking and it smells so bad. This is worse then a dirty frat house. Not worth a dime, DO NOT recommend at all. I am mortified we ate here at this place and I brought my friends, this is beyond embarrassing. We had a reservation and they didn't even write it down.

Great place on the edge of the strip! Great drinks and food. Go visit! You won't be disappointed. Keep an eye on the local talent that plays there during the week!

My friends and I did not have a great experience. The Brussels sprouts were dehydrated and overcooked. They should pay closer attention to execution as the main dishes were subpar and cold. Two thumbs down!

My night at Blasé had its highs and lows but overall I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a killer martini (or two or three). The evening we ventured in, it had been pouring rain off and on, so it wasn't very busy but we were seated in this small area near the bathroom. Our server was nice but not overly welcoming or chatty as I've grown to prefer/expect in bar type settings. We had to prod for recommendations but ultimately just went with what sounded good to us and had a phenomenal 3 out of the 4 martinis that we tried. We also got a cheese and mushroom dip as appetizer which was not good and two pizzas. My first pizza was incorrect it was BBQ chicken instead of Buffalo chicken but the server remedied the mistake rather quickly so I don't take away points for that. Once I did get the correct one it was just ok but I was hungry and several martinis in so I ate some of it. My friend got a seafood pizza but didn't seem blown away by it either. All in all because so many people rave about the place, if I'm in the Keys again I'd give it another shot but stay away from the food and bathroomesque seating area.

Five for the bartender alone - "Cheeze" - Steve was the highlight of our trip ! He's from Ohio ... and was a comedian, Dangerfield impersonator, and mean martini maker - a MASTER craftsman at his art!!! Have the gorgonzola dip - AMAZING!!!! Don't be fooled by the outside appearance; the bar is one-of-a-kind and CHEEZE was a charmer! Will definitely return here, when back in SK.

When we got there half the food menu was not available. The appetizers were good. The Brussels sprouts were fantastic! The pizza wasn't great. The martinis were really good as well! I would recommend coming here for drinks and apps that's it.
