About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Great for outdoor dining
The Sarasota_____________Modern
;-)
The food is inspired by the sophisticated supper clubs of the 1950's and 60's & the lively "Dinner Parties" of that era, blended with a beachy Tiki revolution, all with modern style, culinary creativity, and nostalgic playfulness. We pay respect to the era while utilizing regional Gulf coast flavors through an abundance of small plates, shareable and mid-century favorites with an updated and mindful twist

    I have never been there. Went with my wife on Valentine's Day. They had a special prix fixe menu that was excellent and a bargain to boot. Each of the four courses was outstanding and included lobster over risotto and chateaubriand. I don't understand why this restaurant is not better known.

    Valentine’s Day dinner. We sat outside on the patio. It rained. No covers to stop water coming in. We had two send back our coffees because they were cold. There were no Valentine’s Day adornments on the patio.

    Loved the menu. Variety. Plant-based options. Parking is limited, so valet parking is an option. Ticket validated by restaurant. Good atmosphere and ambiance.

    We sat outside in lovely covered courtyard and were able to converse comfortably with our party. This place is undiscovered but would be a great choice pre-performance to Opera, Theatre, Van Wezel. They have valet parking.

    I would recommend for drinks, but not to dine. I ordered the steak frites with chimichurra sauce. Fair, at best.

    I always give new places 2 opportunities. Menu small, food okay. Bar area very attractive we ate outside on a very nice night. Wait staff could kick up their game.

    Everything was great. It was a Sunday evening and on a small menu they were out of 5 items which was a huge bummer. Typically I go here often for lunch while working-easy to whiz by and valet for a quick delicious bite. This was my 2nd time for dinner and we will definitely try it again. What we did have was delicious and well presented.

    4 people for dinner. We all had different fish dishes and each one was delicious! Service was great on this quiet weekday night. We sat outside, under canopies and we're very comfortable on a humid night. The fans and water features keep the area cool. A delightful evening. We will surely return.

    A no recommendation for dinner. We had a previous experience of drinks and apps that was great. But our second visit for a Sunday Dinner was an incredibly sad and frustrating experience.
