Restaurants near Courtyard by Marriott Bradenton Sarasota/Riverfront

Volcanic shrimp my favorite appetizer. The service by Sara was excellent: attentive, fast, and pleasant. The outdoor patio ambience, food quality and service was what we needed to return there again. See you soon!

We sat at the bar which was very comfortable. Two of us shared the small fresh seafood tower for 2. It was excellent! We followed up with the lobster bisque which was a piece of art & like nothing I had ever seen before. My husband had the Caesar salad which was beautiful as well. We also shared a lobster Mac & Cheese that could have served 4. - all were very good. A treat for sure as prices are high. Enjoy!

The outside patio renovations are wonderful and make the dining experience much more pleasant. We dined outside and had drinks and half a dozen appetizers and it was delicious. A couple of the appetizers could have been served hotter but it was not enough of an issue to send back to reheat. Happy Hour is a great value! I highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time celebrating my birthday here. My son came in from out of town. We order the Parker Rolls and they did not disappoint. Simply the best dinner rolls I've ever had. We shared a wedge salad that was also delicious with bits of pork belly! Can it get any better, right? He had the Seafood Cioppino and I had the Wagyu Short Rib Bolognese. Everything was amazing. I cannot wait to return again and try something new. Our server Taylor was attentive and explained all the different dishes. Our drinks were wonderful-we tried the Hidden Palms and French Kiss 75. Again, looking for an excuse to go sit up at the bar and try something new like their famous meatball (and Parker rolls again)!

We wanted to see the Pace Duck race so I booked lunch reservations to be sure we would have a place. The parking is insane-we had to park in the overflow which is full of sand-cars were stuck and thankfully we had a truck. There were a lot of servers and many new ones training. The place was super busy due to the event but we got our drinks and order out in quickly and the food came out quickly. I had the mahi tacos and they were great!! We didn’t see our servers again until time for the bill so it was hard since we couldn’t get any refills. But there was a lot going on. We enjoyed sitting outdoors but I do not like the high table seats. You are not meant to sit there for any period of time. There aren’t any backs and I slid off my seat continually. I thought the value and price for the food was fair. We would definitely go back again outside of an event! It was a fun place to eat!
