    Was seated immediately with our reservation. The server was very personable and quickly took our drink order. The appetizers were beautifully presented and served very hot. The main courses were perfectly cooked and served. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Our waiter was one of the best we’ve had and we dine out frequently.

    Great service outdoors at lunch. The food was tasty with the exception on the French onion soup. We talked to Jim, the restaurant manager about it. The serving is a large baked raw onion which is served essentially raw. We were told the chef has tried to cook it more but then it does the onion not hold the soup. It seems the presentation may be more important than the taste. Jim went on to tell us it has been and continues to be their #1 seller. We then said why mess with success. He thanked us for our comments. If you would like superb French Onion Soup- go to Rick’s French Cafe just off of 41 on Siesta.

    Great service from Rogerio, who filled our glasses regularly, even my daughter's Shirley Temple. Classy old school ambiance was a great find for us. My shrimp linguine was an 8/10 at least. I personally found more sauce than I would have liked pooled to the bottom, but that's a minor thing. I did love the heavy garlic flavor.

    Pleasant sidewalk experience with good food, heaters as night fell. The escargot was served without bread because the bread was still in oven. Clue: Need bread for mopping up with escargot. Delay serving if you don't have the advertised bread. Explain. Maybe give choice or plan better.

    Deb and I had Another wonderful dinner here. Deb splurged on the Dover Sole and it was totally worth it. My escargot were to die for. Thanks to the hostess, Lauren, we sat at our favorite table on the “balcony” along the sidewalk. It seats 4, but when I asked if we could sit there she didn’t blink, exclaiming “of course!” Sooo nice!

    Having been a long time resident of Sarasota I have seen Cafe L'Europe eb and flow over the years. This last experience was far and above the best in recent memory. The new owners were present and greeted every table, the food was updated and delicious, the restaurant was full but not too loud as to not enjoy our party of six. Highly recommend for both locals and visitors alike.

    It took a very long time to be waited on. The food was just ok. The waiter never once came to check on us. The Shrimp linguine was very dry and I had to wave down a bus boy to help get more sauce. I’m also very disappointed they are changing the charming ambience. This is an historic piece of Sarasota’s history and they are ruining the interior by making it another modern restaurant with zero charm.

    This is our first dinner with new ownership and there were a few weaknesses but we will return anticipating improvements. Staff seemed confused as to who was taking care of the our table and continued on and off over the course of dinner .Entrees were served without the needed cutlery . The veal was not good however the duck was acceptable. Escargot was very good as were the deserts. Staff was very nice. We love the restaurant and hope to see the food quality improve to what it was. Wine btg menu was also very nice. Best of luck to the new ownership and we look forward to our next visit.

    This is our favorite restaurant on St. Armand's, and one of our favorites overall in any location. Every dish is great. LOVE the escargot. Veal piccata is perfect. Debbie really enjoyed the calamari. And at lunch the croque madam is a must have. The ambiance is wonderful, especially the little "balcony" tables which are open to the sidewalk on St. Armand's. And the service was professional and pleasant. Can't wait to go back.

    We like this restaurant and have dined here several times. Very nice atmosphere and good food. On our most recent visit, however, service was very slow, but this could have been the result of inadequate staffing. Our table was close to the bar, where the atmosphere was interrupted frequently by what must be the loudest blender ever invented. We literally had to cover our ears. Hopefully this was a situation where we caught them on a bad night. We plan to return.

    Visiting Sarasota area. Delicious European Cafe style restaurant with both indoor and outdoor dining. Cheese covered garlic and butter escargot as appetizer and Duck L’Orange for entree followed by tirimisu for dessert. Only distraction was music from next door restaurant but outdoor dining and people watching was well worth it.

    Cafe L’Europe may have new owners but they have kept the experience memorable. The interior spaces were freshened without losing the charm and character of the original. The food and beverages were exceptional. Husband had the veal piccata and I had the Dover sole, which is special and hard to find. Both items were prepared perfectly as was the shared apple and fennel salad. Yes the Dover sole was dicey but the piece of fish was large and filling. Bother accompanying vegetables were cooked perfectly. For such goodness the prices were very fair. The service was perfect as well with attention to detail by Rohaldo( ?) and Sue. The experience was what fine dining is about. Was unhappy to see folks in tshirts and flip flops straight from the beach there for dinner but that’s the world now.

    Good news: Onion soup is special and piano player lovely in a charming setting. Bad news: that’s it. Couldn’t believe how bland our snapper (actually tasted old)and veal piccata dishes were. Served with a scoop of mashed potatoes and mixed veggie of 2 pieces of broccoli and a couple of carrots for $38. Each!! My $18 glass of French Pinot was didsapointing. Main course brought before 1st course dishes were cleared, couldn’t fine the waiter to get sugar for tea but the bill appeared before we were done! We have enjoyed great culinary experiences on St Armand’s and this just failed.

    This was our first visit to L'Europe and it won't be our last. The service was outstanding and the food was great. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and it was a special place to do so. It is an upscale, white tablecloth restaurant. Our waiter, Carlos, was very attentive and took care of our every need or request. The escargot was one of the best I have every had and everyone in our party enjoyed their selection, which included the Dover Sole, short ribs with a mushroom sauce (3 people ordered this) and the duck. Looking forward to having dinner or maybe lunch there again.

    This is a nice restaurant with white tablecloths and waiters in tuxedos. The two of us ordered entrees and one was very good and the other was poor. The veal piccata was good, but the vegetables with it were excellent. The potato crusted grouper was poor. The potatoes seemed like frozen Or Ida around a very small fillet. We expected high prices, but were disappointed with the quality of the food. Our waiter was fine, but not excellent. Not a good value, but a nice atmosphere. I would not return.

    We sat outside so we can converse without having to shout. The dining was great & we loved the wine selection. Our waitress was also very good & we will come back again

    We typically enjoy this restaurant very much but the service last night was poor. I think the waiter didn't have sufficient help. We had to ask for rolls, and water, and never could get a glass of wine ordered before our food was gone. We'd been there 3 times in the last month but that may be our last visit this season. I hope they can find more wait staff.
