    Grouper Tacos were great and so was the burger. Sitting outside watching the people walking through St Armand's circle was fun. They also had a guy playing the steel drum outside. Great Caribbean vibe.

    Not sure how this place has any positive reviews. The food was cold,terrible and highly over priced. The service was almost non existent. Had to force the waiter to take the previous customer’s bill from the table after he walked by us multiple times. We had to go get utensils from the host stand after asking for them twice. So many better options in the area. Skip this place!

    Waiter forgot my main course! We ordered apps all around too times and finally asked, where is my entree? Oops we forgot! It was sitting in the kitchen warmer for 20 min. Deducted off the bill for obvious reasons, everyone was done with the apps. Polite but not good!
    Cha Cha Coconuts SarasotaResponded on June 5, 2025
    Certainly not our best effort, Kevin. Please accept our apologies. Please let us know during your next visit if anything falls short of expectations and we'll do all we can to make it right so you leave happy!

    Went on a Friday night and there was live music! We sat inside but still got the outside experience without the heat. The ribs and shrimpy fondue were great!!

    Wr have been to St. Armonds many times on date night, but this was the first time with all the kids and at ChaCha Coconuts. We loved it. They had live music, good food, and an atmosphere that sends the vacation island vibe! Very reasonably priced for our group of 8. Server was Tim. He did a great job!
