Diner Reviews

"We have found that many restaurants have excellent food, served in beautiful surroundings, but what really differentiates an exceptional restaurant is it's service. Flemings in Sarasota has the best staff- from the front door to the table to the car park. It makes the experience one that will be remembered."

"Three of us had a superb dining experience at Flemings last Wednesday. The steaks were cooked to perfection and the Flemings potatoes were very good. Pricey, but worth it. Our server, Sherri Krams, tool care of us in a friendly and professional manner."

"Terrific atmosphere, though a bit noisy, clean, properly lit, very comfortable booth. Aged ribeye was outstanding, porcini filet (while she couldn't taste the porcini) w/ blue cheese sauce was delicious, wedge salad great. The meals were a bit pricey, especially cocktails. Service was friendly and professional (Tom and Josh). We had difficulty getting to the restaurant in time to meet our reservation, but staff was understanding (Sierra, Victoria)."

"We have had inconsistent experiences at Flemings, Sarasota, but our most recent visit was very positive. We shared the "Tomahawk" steak which is a rib eye. The steak was prepared as ordered, but it was slightly too rare for me. The accompaniments were excellent -- sautéed corn and Fleming's potatoes. Their "house" cabernet is 14 Hands and it is always good -- highly recommended."

"Flemings has never failed to have great food, great ambience, excellent wait staff, and a lovely overall dining experience. Their special Sunday night prime rib dinner should be a regular item on the daily menu."

"The food was good and the service was excellent. The price was large. I enjoyed the meal very much, but doubt I'll return soon, because of the cost."

"We were seated in a quiet room. The filet mignon was delicious and so tender. Our food was served very promptly and was piping hot. A very pleasant dining experience!"

"From the moment we pulled up to flemmings our wonderful experience started. The valet attendants were courteous, the host was happy to see us, and the ambiance was lively yet refined. The first face we saw entering our table (a lovely corner table away from the hustle and bustle) was josh our server's assistant. Josh was extremely knowledgeable about the steps of service, the menu, and the cocktails. His recommendations were appreciated and spot on. The next person we came in contact with was joe out server. He reinforced the emotions we were feeling with similar yet more targeted recommendations, he was ever present without hovering. Can't wait until out next visit! Hope to see josh serving next time."

"Not much to say other than, you get what you pay for. An expensive meal, but by far the best we had in Sarasota. We had an excellent server who was very kind to recognize my moms birthday. Our food was perfect, atmosphere perfect, service perfect. I will definitely return and if you are reading this, you should not postpone joy! Make your reservation now!"

"We were seated in an overflow room right outside the kitchen door and the servers refused to keep the door closed. It made for a very distracting experience. Our server repeatedly closed the door and tried to get his colleagues to do the same but to no avail."

"Everything was terrifiic includincluding a very personable wait person, however 2 of my pet peeves were touched upon. The first is that if I have ordered a sauce to be eaten with my steak, whether it be something fancy or plain ketchup, I would like it to be served either before or with my hot food. the wait person had to go back to get it after serving my meal....the other is that as long as some one at the table is still eating, I do not want my dish removed...this is rude and makes the slower eater uncomfortable and consequently makes me uncomfortable. This should not happen at an upscale expensive restaurant ."

"The steaks were tasteless. After informing the manager, the chef prepared a steak and tasted it himself and agreed it was tasteless. They comped one steak and the drinks."

"We have dined at our local Fleming before, never had a bad experience, however, this must have been an off night. We sat at our table for about 15-20 minutes waiting for our waiter to come to the table, finally we called over someone in a suit, and when he asked us "how was it going", we informed him that we had been sitting waiting for over 15 minutes, no waiter, he apoligized greatly, had a different waiter brought to our table, took our drink orders, and then told us the drinks were on the restaurant. Wonderful problem fixed."

"As always we had a wonderful experience at Fleming's. The food was great, the service excellent. The servers and managers were all very pleasant, hospitable and constantly attentive to our needs. We love our server, Michelle who is always so up and so congenial."

"We were seated too close to the kitchen this time and it was a bit noisy. The waiter appeared to be in a great hurry and was rushng us and seemed upset when we asked him to slow the pace a bit. He took one drink order and left the table without all. We finally had to slow him down. We still love it ....in fact going back tonite.........."

"Our waiter was fantastic. He recommended great wines and was on point throughout the meal. The food was good but not great. For a $50 steak I would expect it to far surpass the quality of an Outback or Longhorn. It did not. The chocolate lava cake was delicious!"

"very poor meal. Clear that the waiter was not interested in our table (we had a toddler in a high chair). steaks were tasteless and grainy. scallops so heavily spiced with cayenne pepper...inedible. water glasses never refilled. no requests for wine refills...had to request twice. not a positive dining experience at all. BTW toddler was very well behaved....and carrot cake was quite good. But we did not go to Flemings for dessert."

"We love this restaurant. Would highly recommend it to anyone. Great service. Just wish they would offer a 5oz or so steak on the petite menu vs the medallions."

"The most expensive dry aged steak arrived nearly raw although we ordered medium, and when we sent to back it arrived even worse the second time. The exterior was charged and burnt. We did report it to the gentleman who cleared the table, and he said he was sorry, but that was it."
Dined on 3/11/2014
"The food was good but the time between courses was very long and when we finally got or entrees my brother had to send his steak back twice."

"Had a wonderful birthday celebration with special friends! Delicious wine and food! Love Flemings."

"Dined at Flemings last weekend. Have been to several Flemings, and have always enjoyed the food, wine and service. Again food was outstanding with no complaints. As for the couple of mistakes, we were asked if we wanted water and replied that we did. The water never arrived at the table, until we reminded the waiter that he forgot. We also ordered bone-in sirloin steaks. When the steaks arrived at the table they were not bone-in, but rather NY sirloin strip steaks. We advised the server the original order. We kept the sirloins and they were delicious...The waiter apologized for he mistake, and also told us that they had run out of bone-in sirloins anyway.... Will definitely go back to Flemings."

"We were initially taken to an empty back room for seating. When we voiced displeasure, they did seat us at a table in the main dining room."
Dined on 3/8/2014
"Our dinners were excellent and the waiter was even better. He was very knowledgeable and even explained to us how to prepare a dish that we enjoyed. We were seated at the time of our reservation even though the restaurant was crowded. Our car was waiting for us at the valet when we were ready to leave. Quite possibly the best all around dining experience we have had in Sarasota"

"On 2 separate evenings, we dined at Flemings for birthday celebrations. Our group included a couple of young people with special needs and an 89 year old woman and several others of various ages and food preferences. We all ordered a variety of different things from the menu and each person was extremely pleased with the food and the presentation. The service both times was excellent. The birthday persons were quite pleased with their special treatment . Although the noise level is a bit high, it was quite a pleasant evening on both occasions."

"Our Sister and Brother-in-law from Canada came with us- the food was excellent and we enjoyed the evening. Thank you!"

"It is a very consistent restaurant and the staff is very good. I would recommend for anything from a business dinner to a romantic dinner."

"It was a good but not great prime rib. The sides, bread and butter spreads were very good. Given the quality of the food other than the prime rib, I would go back to try a different cut of meat. The ambience is good and the service was excellent. It would be a good place to take a date."
Dined on 2/16/2014
"I was very disappointed in the table that my wife and I were assigned. It was Valentine's Day and the only time we could get was 4:30. Despite the early reservation, our table had to be the least desirable one in a restaurant that was 50% empty at the time. Food was excellent.....ambience, not so much."

"My husband and I both ordered steaks - I had a filet and he had NY strip. I like mine medium rare and he likes his rare. Both were perfect."

"Fleming's has the best combination of high quality food, attentive and professional service, and club-like ambiance in Sarasota. Our table, adjacent to the busy bar, was surprisingly quiet, considering the large size of this corporate restaurant. The menu offers a diversified selection of meat, poultry, and seafood, many appetizers and sides. My filet mignon was perfectly prepared, tender, and very flavorful. My wife's vegetable selections were fresh and served al dente. Many wines available by the glass. Portions seemed large but not overwhelming. Service was impeccable. Prices are in line with other high end steakhouses."

"The most delicious New York Steak I've had in years. And the Flemings potatoes- wow! I 'll be back- soon!"
Dined on 2/11/2014
"Party of four and two filets had to be sent back because they were not cooked correctly. If you can't get a steak cooked correctly at a steak house why bother going. On second attempt one of the steaks was still WRONG. They did not charge for that one but I would have preferred they cooked it correctly. The service was just OK. Also, asked for a doggie bag for two of the leftover steaks and the waiter never brought it out to us after he removed the steaks from the table. We didn't think of it until after the bill was paid, at that point it was too late. The waiter split the bill without asking us when we sat down. We did not want the bill split, and he had to correct it. Very odd thing to do without asking."

"You can never go wrong when you choose to go to Flemings for a casual dinner or a special occasion. The food is always superb as is the extensive wine list. The servers are always professional never rushing their guests. We are very fortunate to have a Flemings Steakhouse close to home."

"As usual this Fleming's Steakhouse came through with shining stars. Never a doubt to the service, the food or the ambience when dining at any Fleming's."

"This was our first time at any Fleming's restaurant, and we had a very favorable first impression! The tables are spaced adequately apart, so that you don't feel like you are crammed together. This also helps the noise level, which is quiet enough to have a conversation at the table. We asked for a booth, and we were seated immediately, even though we hadn't specified that request when we made the reservation. The service was excellent, and the waitstaff was very knowledgeable & helpful in choosing the appropriate entree, sides, etc. the dirty Martini's were also excellent! We liked the fact that so many wines were available by the glass. We will definitely go to Fleming's again."
