Food and service were excellent as usual. Sadly, our enjoyment of the evening was ruined by a woman loudly talking on her phone using the speaker for at least 15 minutes. Very rude and disruptive! Staff/ manager should have stopped that inappropriate behavior when it became obvious that other diners were being disturbed.

We had dinner reservations for Sunday evening at 6:15. No one at the door or inside to greet us and seat us. Had to find someone in the lobby. There were only a few other tables occupied. Basically, we were left on our own for a while before anyone came by to take our order. Then we waited. And waited. When we were finished with our appetizers, it took almost 30 minutes for someone to take away the dirty plates, which we had to ask for. We didn’t get the main course kabobs, which we shared, until we’d been there for 45 minutes. The service was mediocre, as was the ambiance and the food, which came out cool and was not particularly special. Very disappointing.

The food and drinks were very good. We had the white bean hummus, the grilled vegetables, and the feta. All very delicious. The only downside was that we were the only people in the restaurant, but it is off season. Like to come back when there is more energy.

I was immediately greeted by a manager Mary and a server Pietro. From the conversations we had I immediately knew my experience would be amazing. While I waited for my food Mary answered all my questions not only about the food but Sarasota in general. Pietro came and helped me with the food menu, gave amazing recommendations and I just felt very welcomed as I was there alone. One of those came alone and left with friends feelings. Moroccan Chicken was amazing, Beef and Lamb Cevapi was great and the Bakalava and Black Sesame Brulée...oh man I have to go again soon. Thanks Mary and Pietro for my wonderful experience.

A quiet night - we were nearly the only diners which is sad because the food is creative and delicious. Our friends enjoyed the 3 course $40 menu (large portions) while we enjoyed 3 small plates. The hummus with Moroccan chicken is a meal in itself. The toasted feta with spiced onions, olives and pita is a must have. The new manager introduced herself. We wish her well at Tzeva. A favorite of ours.
