Our group of 4 enjoyed the Summer Menu. It was an expansive menu with a wide variety of choices. Fabulously delicious are the seafood crepe appetizer and the tiramisu dessert. Others enjoyed the calamari appetizer and the Bananas Foster dessert. Actually, everything was delicious. This restaurant is a gem!

We’ve eaten at their The Rosemary and were excited to try Sunday Brunch at Rosemary and Thyme. We had a lovely meal on the patio, shaded by an umbrella and surrounded by potted plants. The quiche and fresh fruit cup were delicious and served in cute china pieces. My husband had his favorite Bermuda fish chowder. Pleasant staff added to a great brunch.

Wow! The menu was great and so was every member of the staff that we interacted with. From the moment we walked in the door we were treated as special guests. We had four in our party and each of us had different meals, we were all very impressed. We have eaten together as a group all over the country and elsewhere and we all agreed that this was a great experience.

Rosemary and Thyme is constantly good. Food and service as expected. And all of this as Rosemary continues its Savor Sarasota pricing through the summer. Restaurant was full on a Wednesday evening in June. Not many more here can say that.

The service is perfect. The ambience is a bit outdated. I feel like they need to revamp their decor inside. The food is beautifully presented and the quality is excellent but gosh, it’s lacking flavor. It’s almost like the chef is against using salt or something.

A couple with a DOG was seated at the table next to us. We did not know Rosemary and Thyme allowed pets indoors??? It did not appear that the dog had a "Service Animal" vest on. While the food and service were excellent, we do not enjoy eating in restaurants with other people's pets!!! We hope this practice is NOT a regular part of this restaurant's ambiance.

Another amazing evening at one of our favorites! Rosemary and Thyme always welcomes us back with warm, personalized service married with consistently fine cuisine, great wine, & fun cocktails. We love having the option of dining indoors in an elegant, but not too formal setting or enjoying dinner outdoors in the beautiful courtyard. Simultaneously, you’ve come home, yet feel transported to a relaxed & elegant holiday destination. It’s our go-to for entertaining visiting family and friends, celebrating special occasions, or Friday dates like we enjoyed this evening. A local gem in Sarasota! Thank you to the awesome staff that always makes our visits feel like a special experience!

Group of four enjoyed our 3 course meal. We ate outdoors and found the flies bothersome even though we had 5 fans going. I think our experience will be better if we move inside next time. Everything else was 5 star
