Jack Dusty Coastal Cuisine and Crafted Cocktails

Great food and service

Food was exceptional. Delivery of food, checking on our water glasses, etc., was also timely and professional. Only thing amiss was that the waiter was the antithesis of engaging. Almost robotic. Maybe he had a long day. On the whole, still great.

Our first experience at Jack Dustys was excellent. Our server was excellent from helping us choose our wine to the choices for dinner. My only criticism would be a little too much salt on the Kansas Strip Steak,otherwise everything was excellent especially our server making it a memorable evening. My wife had the grouper and it was plentiful and delicious. I would definitely return to this restaurant.

Sunday brunch with friends was great! They have a wide selection of wonderful tasting dishes and the service is outstanding.

Hands down our favorite place and the best place in Sarasota.

Excellent food and service. I have celiac and they made sure I had a safe meal. They were very attentive. Atmosphere is very romantic at night looking out over the water. Five star service. Wait staff is the best!!

Our experience at Jack Dusty was fantastic! Sammy (I believe that was her name) was a fantastic waitress! We went for my husbands birthday and she made the night special. The food was outstanding! I would highly recommend this to other people. And ask for Sammy, because she was great! :)

We love Jack Dusty and we go there frequently hence we always request Helen however she was not available Sunday night. Instead the team decided to have a bartender serve us instead of a senior server. He was not attentive and service was poor; not your typical jack dusty experience. I was very discussed as there were 5 guests with us who have never been and they were not very impressed, especially after i have talked up the restaurant. I am not sure they will come back, nor stay at the hotel.

The server was superb but the strip steak was sadly lacking. Over cooked and very fatty. A very poor piece of steak.

Amazing service... amazing food and a great crowd to keep it fun.

Nice experience with incredible drinks and outstanding food in an atmosphere that you can’t tire of.

Our server was excellent. She made the meal enjoyable.

our wait staff were incredible!!!

Had dinner here last night. We sat outside on the beautiful terrace. I only had the kale salad which I enjoyed and split the Jack Dusty fries, which are pretty amazing, different and delicious. Our server Jennifer (I think that was her name) was busy, the restaurant was slammed on Friday night, but she was still very attentive.

The best food and service we have ever experienced. Everything was cooked perfectly and the service and atmosphere were first class.

Happy birthday!!

Wonderful service. The waitress and sift manager checked on us often. Recognized it was my birthday and we shared a wonderful dessert. Couldn’t be more pleased.

Everything was wonderful
Just one thing I mentioned 2 things we were celebrating and although we didn’t order desert they could have brought over a complimentary something to the table
Otherwise meal and service were outstanding as always

The Craft cocktails and artistically prepared food never fails to satisfy! The attentive yet unobtrusive service is second to none. Great place to celebrate a special occasion or just time with that special someone!!

Left my credit card and thnx to great staff and open table got a call and went and picked up my card. Thnx to all

Great service, great ambiance, great everything. We will be back. I wish we would have stayed at this hotel. Everything is just gorgeous.

Very disappointing experience. Server was not friendly and they were out of certain dishes. Cerviche was chewy. Over priced for sure.

Was Ok service was very slow from the order of food to table 50min Food was just OK for a Riz should have been better

Jen is the best waitress in Sarasota !!

Excellent good and service . Outstanding peach cheesecake and mango sorbet wait staff phenomenal
Loved it will be back

Fish tacos were so yummy and waiter was excellent!

Great experience.

Went to Sunday brunch, like we do all the time because we like their buffet and guess what! They decided not to have their buffet that day because occupancy was low in the hotel. Needless to say we were disappointed. The dining room was full though but so we just had to order from the menu. The menu items were the same as what they usually have at the buffet. So we just ordered a bunch of dishes to share. Service was really slow, our server did her best but she just had too many table inside and outside. Food took an hour to come out! Really an hour for an omelette, pancakes, and such. The hostess just said next time we should call the same day and ask if the buffet is on. So call at 8:00am to see if brunch is happening at 10:00am. Really?

Best service from Jorge! He went the extra mile to make our dining experience a complete delight! Also, I left my credit card behind by accident, and the hostess (brilliant) remembered I had made the reservation, so she was able to give me a call before I drove too far away! Thank you so much! Food was fabulous!

Enjoyed the entire experience. It got hot outside and we were accommodated to move inside for desert.

What has happened?
Food used to be so good .... but last night it wasn’t. Also it was a lot of money for very little food.
Service was very very slow (and it was not busy). You thought we were sitting outside but that is not what I booked. No bother - that was sorted.
But the menu needs a relook.

No doughnuts either - That is a huge miss - our boys were gutted.

And then no discount as Gold Marriott Bonvoy guests.
As SPG members we used to get a discount on the food but not anymore.

Never mind - it’s a shame as we used to love dining with you but last night not up to scratch.

Everything about this dining experience exceeded out expectations. We will be going back!

This used to be a lot better. Unfortunately it seems to have changed for the worse. Food and service were fair at best. Nothing exceptional. No real value in going here given all of the other great restaurants that are available and close by in downtown Sarasota.

Best seafood in town and Jen is the very best waitress .

Our sever Andy was fun & experienced, great evening

One of our best fish meals in Sarasota. The service was very good and we love their homemade bread!

Garrett was the most amazing server. He was knowledgeable and attentive. Excellent service!

The food and service were outstanding. We felt like we had been treated like royalty!

Great food and service! We had a lovely experience after a long day.

Nice venue. Impeccable, attentive service. Wish food matched the service.
