We had a large party with lots of fluctuations in people coming and going due to an event. Our server was excellent, being flexible, attentive and helpful. All of our meals were delicious from appetizers to entrees. My sister in law loved the tuna poke bowl and said she could have licked the plate! Portions were large but not overwhelming and appetizers were all shareable. We will be back; next visit we will have more time to try desserts!

Music was loud so the waiter and I had difficulty communicating. Cost was higher than expected. The brunch was mostly cold finger foods rather than warm lunch type food.

Enjoyed Mother's Day brunch. The entire experience (food, ambience, price, service) was exceptional. The service was impeccable. Each and every server, busser and manager were smiling and accommodating. The hotel is new and quite nice for a Marriott.

1st time at this Marriott property. We had a lovely dinner at the Social. The server was very attentive. The only issue we had was the wine list. It needs to be updated, the selection is limited. I tried to order the Bel Glos, they couldn’t find it , the Prisoner was the wrong bottle. Settled on one finally just before our meal was delivered.

It was my first time at the social and it won’t be my last. The food and the ambience were incredible. The hostess at the front door had the biggest smile and it seemed like she was waiting there just for us whoever chose her give her a raise because she is incredible. Our server could’ve been better but it’s not the worst service we ever had All in All. It’s a 10 out of 10 would recommend The Social for any occasion.

Great Easter Buffet! It would have been helpful if there was a listing or a map as the serving stations were spread out across several areas.

Didn’t know what to expect, saw this event on ABC 7 Sarasota, decided to try it out, and very satisfied, exceeded our expectations. We are looking forward to going back for the next special brunch.

Booked on Opendoor to try the restaurant and saw this restaurant promoting for Easter brunch. Server was pleasant and attentive. We sat on a long couch bench and an individual chair. (Table arrangement was a little different than I was expecting) I was greatful our seats were inside! As far as for me the only Vegan options was the black bean burger( one side of fries or fruit) but there wasn’t any vegan options for the Easter buffet. I’m glad they were able to Accommodated. However, they had several stations spread out for the carnivores and desert lovers. (My husband said the prime rib was over cooked a bit) In his opinion a little overpriced. Even in open door listed $30-$50, so I was a little shocked to hear it was $70pp for the buffet. The regular restaurant menu is $30-$50pp. And that seemed accurate when we looked at the menu. Everything is a La cart normally. The environment was beautiful since it’s a brand new hotel. Everything is new, nicely decorated for the holiday, and very open spacious feel inside.
