This place is amazing! Food, atmosphere and service were all top notch! We had a very large party and service was still fantastic. Scallops, tempura shrimp, poke bowl , grouper sandwich and scampi were all excellent. But the best thing we had hands down was the lobster bisque and the lobster sushi roll. May be the best of both that I’ve ever eaten and I have eaten a lot of bisque! Prices aren’t cheap but this is a “you get what you pay for” kind of situation. Highly recommended!!

We were greeted and seated immediately. We ordered the Plantains off the Tapas menu. They were served with crispy cancha (corn nuts), chimichurri, and huancaina sauces. I had the Black Mussels for my entrée and my husband had the Diver Sea Scallops. I also ordered a side of Truffle Fries because why not?! Every single dish was delicious!! Our waitress, Monica, was attentive, knowledgeable, warm, and friendly! We will definitely request her again if we ever come back this way. 10/10 recommend!!

I recently visited The Cottage and had a pleasant experience overall. The staff was friendly and attentive. As for the food, it was good. The plating was nice, but the garnishes on several plates looked a bit tired and not as fresh as I would have hoped. That slightly took away from the visual appeal of the meal. It was an okay dining experience. Worth a try if you’re nearby and want a casual bite in a nice setting.

We had eaten here during g our last visit to Siesta Key and really enjoyed it so it was an easy decision to go back again for lunch today. It’s normally too hot to eat outside in Florida restaurants in August but due to the large canopy we were able to do so without getting g too hot - the many fans helped! The staff were so friendly and helpful and we were soon sitting down with drinks trying to decide what to eat from the large menu. It was lunch time so we’re looking at sandwiches, burgers etc - we decided on the grouper sandwich and the seared tuna club sandwich with both of us upgrading to the truffle and Parmesan fries. The food was absolutely great - so tasty and the fries were a revelation! Just about the right quantity for lunch so didn’t have a dessert. Happy to come back

​My friend and I visited The Cottage multiple times during our week in Siesta Key, and every single time it felt a bit like walking into Cheers. Everyone was genuinely excited to see us. The entire staff was, without a doubt, the friendliest and most personable team we encountered on the Key. A massive shout-out needs to go to Kyle, who was a true standout for "adopting" us and taking such good care of us throughout our visits. ​The curated menu is fantastic. I highly recommend the tuna tacoshimi, the mussels, and the rich, delicious lobster bisque. They were all instant favorites. And for drinks, their mai tai is a must-try. The quality of the food combined with the welcoming atmosphere created by the staff makes this place unforgettable. If you’re looking for great dining and even better hospitality in Siesta Key, you have to stop by The Cottage. We can’t wait to return!

Restaurant
Siesta Key Oyster Bar, affectionately known as S.K.O.B., is a laid-back beach spot with a covered patio where you can savor delicious seafood and bar favorites while enjoying draft beer and live music. The restaurant lives up to its name by offering an array of fresh oysters and other local seafood dishes. From raw and baked oysters to grouper bites with signature remoulade, there's something for every seafood lover.
Fresh, flavorful seafood, worth the wait! The food here is absolutely delicious and everything we tried was fresh and full of flavor. It can get a little hectic during peak times, and things might move a bit slow since the place gets packed and the staff is juggling a lot. That said, the waitresses were top-notch: friendly, professional, and doing their best to keep up with the crowd. If you're not in a rush, it's definitely worth it!

Delicious grouper tacos. The best way to get grouper without overlaying for sides. Excellent service. I sat at the bar and Megan took top notch service for me. Ambience is fantastic too. You can sit either inside or outside. I sat outside at first to soak up some sun, and then moved inside to soak up some AC and live music. I’ll be back for HH oysters.

I always love coming back to this place, it's really nice, and every time I go, even if I'm not hungry, I order the calamari. I don't know if I do it out of habit, but I love them. I also tried the oysters, and even some cooked oysters (I don't remember the name because I didn't order them myself, I think they had cheese on them) and, man, those were good too! They often have live music, which makes everything more magical.
Maria K — Google review
Such a fun spot. Right off main stretch with live music. Didnt have drinks as we came in after a beach day but food was delicious. Blue cheese and bacon oysters... best oysters I've had yet. You can tell its been around for decades as the inside is covered in dollar bills and memorabilia. We will come back when we are in the areas for sure.
Ann C — Google review
Lunch was good, nothing to write home about or suggest to others. The cocktails ($12-$15) were good, no cheap sugary mixes. The oysters Rockefeller were meh, just spinache, barely any crispy bread crumps, almost no cheese and very little sauce. The grouper bites were really good. The tuna and avocado BLT was also very good. Cajun Shrimp po'boy had no Cajun seasoning. Service started out good but then she would forget what we asked for and just stood up at the host stand. Wouldn't complain of we went back but would try a different restaurant next time I'm on the area.

Great local bar. Good food, a little pricey though. Great staff. Gets crowded because it's small. Always has a great band playing! Drink selection was limited on seltzers though which I prefer

For an oyster bar, we found it disappointing. The service was great, the food was ok. Grouper bites were good, the oysters not so much. The crab cakes were so so. Quesada’s were good. They were filled with cheese and veggies and didn’t dry out.

Great selection of cold water oysters, truly some of the best oysters we’ve had, period! Ordered dozen oysters (mignonette delicious), calamari and lobster roll from the specials menu. Perfect vibes and service ✨

Siesta Key Summer House Steak & Seafood is a stylish and elegant eatery that offers sustainable steaks, seafood, cocktails, wine, and beer. Located at 149 Avenida Messina, this restaurant provides a refined dining experience with hand-cut steak and seafood selections in a coastal-chic setting. The establishment boasts a remarkable 1,000-gallon on-site fish tank that spans 14 feet.
Summer House in Siesta Key is a must-visit! The ambiance is lively and energetic, perfect for a fun night out. The food was phenomenal—the ceviche special was fresh, unique, and bursting with flavor, and our steaks were cooked to perfection. What truly elevated the experience was the exceptional service. Our server, Derek, was outstanding, tailoring recommendations to our preferences and even letting us sample different steak sauces. His attention to detail made us feel truly valued. Highly recommend!
Ashraf H — Google review
Overall, I had a very good experience. The hostesses and my server, Julie were friendly and attentive. A gentleman, I assume a manager, checked on me once my entree was served. The bread, lobster bisque and grouper were outstanding. The only miss was the bone marrow. It was oily and lacked flavor. I would highly recommend SH to anyone looking for a higher end dining experience in Siesta Key. Cheers!.

Outstanding place!!! First timer, actually went two nights!!! The staff are amazing, the food is amazing!! I had fillet mignon one night cooked to perfection. The Top sirloin wagyu was unbelievably good on our second visit. Not big on sirloin, this is a must. The management worked with our party of six to get us in on a last minute decision on a Friday. I have eaten steaks at some of the top rated in the country, hands down one of the best!!!

Amazing! Perfect for an upscale dinner or celebration. The atomsphere is elegant but casual. Very comfortable Everything we had was incredible. Our server Derek was great- efficient, personable and made excellent recommendations. Pictured : the seafoam margarita (I don’t know how to describe this other than the name being perfect for the drink.. )topped with lime/ eggwhite foam and siesta key harvested sea salt 10/10 Wagyu tartare with bone marrow grenota 40 oz Porterhouse with Gorgonzola crust - INCREDIBLE! And of course, when in Rome… key lime pie. So yummy Will return on my next trip to siesta key :)

To start with, Derek was our server who delivered with flair and the utmost professionalism I haven’t witnessed in a long time. Derek asked for our names and engaged in conversation that was pleasant and legitimate. A thorough explanation of menu items and the background to the Chefs vision. We started with colossal shrimp and crab cake as appetizers to which both were fantastic. We then entered into our main course of wet aged NY strip steaks that were both tender and delicious. A complimentary dessert was provided as Derek admitted me dropped a small, bite size morsel of steak. The ambience, food and service was IMHO, stellar. The manager, Thai, even came by our table and engaged with us which sealed the deal. We will definitely by coming back for more food adventures.

If you're looking for a delightful dining experience on Siesta Key, The Old Salty Dog is the place to be. This charming British pub not only serves up mouthwatering beer-battered hot dogs but also offers a variety of bar bites that are perfect for satisfying your cravings. With its inviting atmosphere and proximity to the beach, it's an ideal spot for families and furry friends alike. Dogs are welcomed with special meals and treats, making it a truly pet-friendly destination.
Another little local gem just North of Siesta Key village by about a block. It turned out to be one those (If you know then you know) places. Food was really delicious and portions size was tremendous. Staff where all very friendly. The place appears to be way bigger on the inside then it looks on the outside. It also sports one of the longest bars that I've seen in the whole village. We were very impressed with the atmosphere and the personaliized decore. It gives the restaurant a special and unique identity. Anthony was our server and he was friendly and efficient had our drinks to us very quickly and the food followed soon after. Very fast service. I tried the Loaded Salty Dog (one of their signature dishes) I have to tell you that was the biggest and I dare say probably the best hot dog I have ever had. Meat was jucy and delicious not something you find everywhere. This dog was loaded down with 3 types of cheese and Sautéed onions and mushrooms as well as crisp sourkrut. The hot dog nearly won. I.almost couldn't finish it. They claimed it was a quarter pound dog, the whole sandwich likely weighted in at 1 and 1/4 pounds.. Be really hungry if you order this monster...but if you can't finish it (Henry thier mascot maybe standing by literally to help you clean up.) Heather sampled the Grilled Shrimp Tacos and they where also pretty large and she found them wonderfully flavorful. The Beer I ordered was a locally brewed Draft and it was cold crisp and really hit the spot. Heather sampled one of their special house made Margaritas and it was delicious but stout...they didn't skimp on the tequila that's for sure. So if you haven't tried this place I strongly recommend it. We will be trying more of their fine cuisine on our next visit. Very glad we stopped in today.

Firecracker wrap with shrimp is incredible. Tortilla wasn't dried out. The sauce has a kick. Good taste. The batter chicken sandwich is huge. Real chicken that isn't batter on top of batter on top of batter. The original salty dog though isn't something I'd get again. Rum cake was moist and so yummy!!!! Key lime slice is fine. Glad desserts are local.

The Old Salty Dog Siesta Key: A Mixed Bag, But Worth a Visit! Our recent trip to The Old Salty Dog on Siesta Key offered a bit of a mixed experience, but overall, it's a place we'd consider visiting again, especially if you have a furry friend! First and foremost, it's a wonderfully dog-friendly place, which is a huge plus for pet owners. They were very welcoming to our dog, making it easy and enjoyable to dine out with our companion. The relaxed, casual atmosphere is perfect for a laid-back meal by the water. Now, for the food. I decided to be adventurous and ordered their signature dish, the "Salty Dog." Unfortunately, I really did not like it. It just wasn't to my personal taste, and I found it quite overwhelming. However, this is where the "mixed bag" comes in: my family ordered other dishes that were great! They enjoyed their meals thoroughly, with everything from seafood to other pub-style fare receiving high marks. This suggests that while my particular choice wasn't a hit, the kitchen is certainly capable of producing delicious food. So, while I might steer clear of the "Salty Dog" next time, the positive experience of dining with our dog and the enjoyment my family had with their meals means we'd still recommend The Old Salty Dog Siesta Key. Just be sure to explore their menu beyond the namesake dish!

Wow!!!!!! WHAT HAPPENED????. We came here a couple times last time we were in siesta key. We were all excited to eat here. NOT the same. The waitress struggled to offer to take our order after we ordered drinks and an appetizer. We were never once offered any refills on our pop, there were only about 5 or 6 other tables with customers so it was not very busy. We ordered two burgers and an original salty dog and a loaded salty dog. The hot dogs had absolutely no taste. Last time we came we had left a 5 star review. The original was fried so hard that the batter was absolutly rock hard. The loaded had the tiniest amount of grilled onion and saurkrut hidden under the dog which is stange because the whole thing tasted like nothing but burnt greasy onions. There are so many amazing places to eat here. Would not suggest spending $90 on a couple dogs and burgers that were not very good.

I LOVE that we could bring our dog with us (patio dining and it was perfect!) Service was great. Mixed thoughts on the food. The wonton tacos were AWESOME, but very small portion for the price. Grilled mahi had no flavor and was a bit dry. The chili (not pictured) had too much chili power added which made it overly salty.

Service was friendly, the atmosphere was good for the time of the day (lunch) and the food was ok. Had a great craft beer (think it was mango flavoured light ale type). We had the mussels, firecracker wrap and the hotdog. The endamme and chickpea salad as a side was great. Think this place comes alive late evenings.

10/10 for places to have a wedding reception! We had our wedding reception here and it was perfect! It’s been a year since our wedding and our friends and family members are still talking about how amazing the food and drinks were. We had to get a tent because we had about 120 people, but they handled all the details for us. All staff members were so kind and were great to work with (Robbie is the best bartender around and he was a must have at our reception!). Robbie also constantly made sure I had everything I needed which helped out greatly throughout the night. Marc and Kris made sure we had all the details ironed out and ensured everything was beautiful and ran smoothly. We chose this place because the food is incredible (wine and cocktails, too!) and it was nothing short of top notch that night. They stayed opened 2 hours or so after the reception was supposed to be over because everyone was having such a great time! The only thing I regret was having too much fun dancing and missing out on the dessert which I was greatly looking forward to. Some day soon we’ll be back for it 😋

This is a solid 4-star Italian/American restaurant. The food is good, but lacks greatness. It’s well prepared, the menu is well thought out, presentation is on point t for what it is, and the food really isn’t bad… it just lacks certain details to really be considered great. Many of the sauces are a bit on the bland side. The veal parm was a bit dry. The pastas lacked that taste and flavor all great pastas have. Service was average to good, ambiance is good, and the location is great. Although they could use a remodel, especially with the prices they are charging… the entire restaurant is still the same hurriedly constructed shed on top of a wooden deck I remember from 20+ years ago… the best thing about this place other than location is the wine menu, they have an exceptional wine menu.

The food was very good however the server we had was not personable at all. He did not say his name and he was very stand offish. We came for a bachelorette trip and was very excited to eat here. The bride asked for ranch and he said “no this an Italian restaurant” when we were leaving and after we paid all he said was “bye” as he was walking into the kitchen. The food was amazing but the service from our waiter really rubbed us the wrong way and ruined the time.

The Hub Baja Grill is a lively and vibrant restaurant located in the heart of Siesta Key Village. It offers a tropical-themed atmosphere with indoor and covered patio seating, perfect for people-watching along Ocean Boulevard. The menu features Mexican-inspired dishes and an array of margaritas, including the popular Cadillac Margarita made with Patron Anejo tequila.
I had low expectations for a busy spot right on the main street, but we were very pleasantly surprised about the food, drinks, and the number of gluten free options. First of all, get their yummy margaritas. Different but in a good way. Try their signature one and the coconut one. We had the chicken bowl and the taco plate, and both were very tasty. The live music was great too.

This was my first time trying this. We saw this place walking around the village and wanted to give it a try after viewing the menu. They have a great variety of tacos. We got mahi, shrimp, and tuna tacos. We also had an order of the smashed burger and fries… both were great! The tacos were enjoyed with the complementary rice and beans but I have had better at other Mexican places. The place is well located and the service was fine. Prices were good. Overall, it’s a nice place to go if you’re looking for a tasty spot in the village!

Our server was Kameron and he was fantastic! I am a vegetarian and he got the kitchen to make a special meat-free version of the nachos. Apparently the restaurant has two different types of tortilla chips. I didn't even know that, but Kameron brought them both out for me to try before he put in the order. The nachos were really good, the service was phenomenal, and they had a good selection of beers too (I got a hazy IPA). On top of that, the live band was great. We had a wonderful night.

Great casual spot for tacos and local eats right on the main strip and not too far from the beach. Started with the house margarita and got a half Tajin and half salt rim. tasty for sure but too much orange juice for my liking so it was almost like a different drink entirely. All three tacos we got were tasty but the tone poke was the standout. Rice and beans were ample and super tasty. Blackened grouper sandwich was delicious but didn’t care for the sweet potato fries as they were tossed in some sort of sugar. Way too sweet as a side. Server very attentive and friendly. Fun spot for sure.

Short walk from Siesta Key Beach. Indoor/outdoor with live music. Good food. Came here after looking over the menu and reviews. Service may have been a 1 off, but we were seated and left there for a good 10 min watching others get seated and eventually served. It seemed like they either had the bus boy take care of us, or he was from the other side of the restaurant. Drinks weren't refilled, slow all around, drink orders weren't put in. Will not return.

Came here after checking out a few options in the area. This is a popular spot that provides fun music while you dine. We ordered drinks that included a margarita, which I was told was "great!" We also ordered nachos, which were not as hot as I preferred and they were okay. However, when our main courses came out to the table we were very happy. My partner got the Chicken Bowl and she loved it. When I took a bite of it - I thought the flavors were good and I recommend it too. The biggest thing is that my main meal hit my side of the table. FYI - I have a habit of seeking out things on menu6 that I have never tried before and on this night it was a great success. The Birria Burger is positively AMAZING! The first bite I took was just as the burger was presented on the plate; respectfully, I was not entirely sure what to think of it at first but that's not to suggest that it was bad or disappointing. Then I dipped it in the accompanying sauce where it felt like the heavens opened up and the angels revealed a culinary party in my mouth! Try to imagine a next level chilli cheese burger and that somewhat comes close to this fantastic sandwich. Honestly, my only complaint about this burger was that I was too full and couldn't make way to order a second one. Finally, my partner finished the meal with a strawberry and jalapeno margarita, which she also loved the combination of sweet, sour, and spicy all at once. I definitely recommend giving this place a try.

Nice out door seating and with a band playing island music. Service was quick and was not typical cheap beach food. Not the best food ever but certainly better beach food that I have had. Mostly Mexican and sandwiches here. Reasonable price for food and drinks for a tourist area. Margarita was tasty except they put OJ on all of their margs so ask without it.

French restaurant
Miguel's Restaurant, located at 6631 Midnight Pass Road on Siesta Key in Sarasota, Florida, is a renowned dining establishment that has been serving exquisite French and continental cuisine since 1983. Founded by Miguel Garcia and now managed by his sons Gabriel and Daniel, the restaurant offers a diverse culinary experience. From an early bird menu for budget-conscious diners to elegant tableside presentations, Miguel's caters to various preferences.
This gem of a restaurant is hidden in the corner of an L shaped strip mall just south of Stickney point. This was our first time getting takeout from the place. It was jam packs shortly after it opened. It was a Saturday night and I am sure reservations are highly recommended. The food was good. Actually the food was great. Everything we had was well prepared and tasty. That is something of your feet on a busy Saturday night. But they maintain the quality. It’s one of those restaurants where, when you finish dinner, you can’t wait to go back another time and try something else. As an added bonus, the early bird special came with dessert and an appetizer. One of us had the seafood wrapped in a puff pastry that was delightful. I had lamb chops which was seasoned and cooked well. The online ordering did give you the ability to specify how you would like them cooked, and they did them perfectly. The parking lot gets very busy and I could see where one could have trouble finding a spot. There is parking in the rear. That’s a little bit difficult to negotiate. The pictures show the crème brûlée dessert, the beef tips and shrimp appetizer, and the two entrées I mentioned above. There is also a short video of the interior of the restaurant. I recommend trying the place. Even if you’re not strictly a French food lover, there is something for everyone, just take a look at the menu. Bon appétit

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Miguel’s Restaurant 10 stars, I absolutely would! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth and hospitality that makes you feel truly special. Dan, the owner, is a delight to converse with behind the bar, always ensuring guests are comfortable and well-attended. Chef Gabe’s culinary expertise shines through in every dish, offering a delectable French continental menu that’s both authentic and innovative. The wine list is exceptional, featuring selections that perfectly complement the cuisine. This establishment is a rare gem in Siesta Key—a must-visit for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended!

This was the best food and experience. Meal was just fabulous! Cocktails were so awesome and unique! Inside, the restaurant the decor gives you a cozy outdoor European feel, even though you are indoors. I liked that they thought about keeping the sound level down with sound dampening ceiling tiles and carpeted floors. You could have a nice quiet level conversation and enjoy a great meal. Went for the Savor Sarasota week 2025.

Fantastic! Hidden gem on Siesta Key. Tucked away in the corner this unsuspecting restaurant has some of the best service and food anywhere, let alone on the key. Amazing table side service, we had the ceasar for the table and it was made from scratch right next to us, same with the dover sole and the flambe both tableside prepared. Everyone enjoyed their food. Perfectly cooked fish and steaks. Delicious sauces. Great wine and cocktail selection too. Dirty grey goose martini was on point. Complimentary veggies with delicious pâté, really good nicely seasoned pâté, and garlic bread. Will definitely be a regular stop for me from now on. Can't recommend highly enough.

Such a wonderful meal accompanied by perfect service! You're immediately provided with ice water and delicious garlic roles with accoutrements. Our server was knowledgeable on wine options and graciously provided her favorite menu selections. We leaned into the full dining experience and ordered the Cesar salad and bananas foster, both made table side - a must! Don't sleep on this hidden gem. In business for more than 40 years, they know how to serve with quality and flavor. We'll definitely be back!

We have visited Miguel‘s multiple times over the years visiting Siesta Key & have always enjoyed our experience. They have great parking and we can usually get a reservation last minute the day of. Cocktails are always good. We love the table-side Caesar salad service as well. The dressing is made in front of you from scratch & is delicious. If salad isn’t for you, you have to get the French onion soup. It is absolutely amazing. From there my favorite entree is Le Boeuf Diane. Beef & puff pastry = a beautiful masterpiece! The prices are great for the flavor packed entrees. Our favorite dessert option is the dessert sampler where you can pick 3 desserts to try. They also have amazing table-side flambé dessert options.

Great service from the start. Parking was easy and very convenient. We had made reservations for four and we were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. The place was beautifully decorated in traditional Euro- French decor. We noted the place was booming with happy locals and tourist guests. We were taken care of by Brendan who walked us through the menu options. My girls opted for the Savor Sarasota, Prix Fixe Menu, including delicious escargot, French onion soup and savory beef bourguignon short ribs. They serve delicious, freshly made, bread which is prefect to dip in the escargot cassoulet. My wife had the coquilles st Jacques and the filet de boeuf, I had their 8 ounce filet mignon in peppercorn sauce. Both delicious and perfectly executed at medium rare. We accompanied our meal with their house Chardonnay and Riesling. For dessert we had the event of the night, our very own server Brendan executing table side delicious flambé Crepes Suzette with grand mariner and vanilla ice cream. We had an excellent evening and will definitely come back.

Island House Tap and Grill is a laid-back restaurant and bar that serves Latin street eats like tacos, ceviche, and stir-fries. Located at 5110 Ocean Blvd in Sarasota, Florida, it offers a cozy atmosphere for enjoying a variety of dishes such as Ahi Poke and Guac N Chips.
Island House Tap and Grill is a cozy place to get a meal in the village of Siesta Key.  There's not much seating available which makes it nice in my book.  The atmosphere is what I've come to expect for Siesta Key restaurants which is very fitting and went along with the whole vibe of island theme.   Our server was polite and attentive.  Now to the food.  It was excellent.  High quality ingredients and everything is made from scratch.  It's a legit scratch kitchen.  Everyone in our party enjoyed his or her food.  If you like beer and wine on top of good food, the beer and wine selection is hard to beat as well.

This little cute place is definitely worth your visit when in Siesta Key Village. It’s a tiny indoor place with a few tables outside, when I walked in I was not sure about the place, I don’t know what I expected but my expectations were exceeded to the max. Thank you to Steve and Amber for serving us, guiding us through the food choices and extra kudos to Steve, he made me separate non-mayo dips so I didn’t have to miss out, it was amazing! We had a few different things, the fried pickles as a starter is a must, so delicious, the America Burger, the filet mignon rice bowl. Everything 10/10. Lots of beer and wine choices as well! You’re missing out if you don’t visit this cute little place. Thank you guys!

I've been here multiple times. The first time was great. The second time wasn't so good as the service was really lacking and food wasn't on par. The last time I came a few days ago it was great! The service was really good and fast. Food came out super hot and everything was good. The first shrimp app was phenomenal and I highly recommend that dish. The steak tacos were good - could have used a little more crema but some hot sauce did the trick. The bowls they have are also very very good! Overall if you're in the key I highly suggest stopping by here for lunch. They have a lot of great options.

I ordered online, so no opinion on atmosphere and service. The food was not very good. I really wanted to like this place too. I ordered the chicken sandwich with duck fries. The chicken sandwich was missing the prosciutto and special lettuce. Horrible chicken sandwich. Also, no duck fries. Regular not very good fries. I won't finish the sandwich and I'm giving the fries to my dog. Truly a 2 1.5/10. Especially considering how expensive this place is.

A Must-Visit in Siesta Key! We had an incredible experience at The Island House Tap & Grill! From the moment we sat down, we felt welcomed and relaxed. The atmosphere is laid back and perfect for Siesta Key vibes. The food? Outstanding. The fish tacos were absolutely delicious fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. We also tried the chicken tacos, and they were just as amazing. You can tell they take real pride in their ingredients and preparation. What really made the visit special was our server, Amber. She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Her energy and great recommendations elevated our whole experience. If you’re in Siesta Key, do yourself a favor and stop by The Island House Tap & Grill. We’ll definitely be back!

Myself and my family (5 of us) dined here on Friday night 7/25/25. We were initially surprised by how tiny the restaurant was, but we were seated outside by the hostess Amber who was extremely friendly! We ordered drinks, amber house ale, a classic Moscow mule, and more. All were great. As for food, we ordered 2 steakhouse burgers, a shrimp bowl, steak bowl, and tuna bowl. Safe to say we all CLEANED our plates. Everything was delicious and tasted fresh. We will definitely be returning a second time during our stay here in Siesta Key.

Captain Curt's Crab & Oyster Bar is a popular seafood spot located at the south entrance of Siesta Key, Florida. It offers a relaxed island atmosphere, delicious seafood dishes, and live music. The restaurant is known for its award-winning clam chowder and diverse menu featuring the freshest seafood selections. The nautical-themed interior and friendly staff create a warm and inviting environment for all types of gatherings.
After a recommendation from a relatives friend, we stopped by while on a vacation night in Sarasota. The service was stellar, food and drinks came out quickly and was hot and fresh. All the food was good but I could have eaten a vat of the clam chowder! So tasty, full of clams, and a rich mouth feel that is rare with restaurant chowder. The fried pickles were amazing too! Karinna was our server, and she helped us find just what we wanted both food and drink wise. Give that girl a raise !

Captain Curt’s was a gem hidden in plain sight. Food was awesome, games playing on the big screen and the breeze off the ocean made it perfect. Really had a great lunch. Seafood extravaganza was a giant fried seafood plate, everything was delicious however the star of the show was the clam chowder. I tend to be skeptical when dishes are labeled best in the world however I agree one hundred percent, that clam chowder was so good!! Drinks were strong too, strawberry banana daiquiri was recommended and didn’t disappoint. This will be my first stop on our trip back to Siesta.

The food was absolutely delicious — everything we ordered was spot on. We sat outside, and even in the midday heat, the outdoor seating felt fresh and comfortable. The frozen drinks were a highlight: tasty, refreshing, and not strong, perfect for a casual lunch. *Clam chowder is a must try* The only downside was the service toward the end. My daughter and I were having a nice conversation and considering ordering another drink, but after we declined dessert, it felt like we were being subtly rushed off our table. It changed the vibe and our plans a bit, which was disappointing. Overall, we’d still come back for the food and atmosphere.

Highly recommend potential diners to this establishment. The service from the start is attentive and quick. We orders clam strips and fried shrimp basket. My son finished the meal in 10 minutes. Another dish include sea scallops and shrimp and the broiled sea scallops were melt in your mouth experience. Another dish includes Alaskan snow crab and there was a ton of meat. We will dine here again next visit at Siesta Key.

Daiquiri Deck Siesta Key Village is the ultimate late-night destination for those seeking a laid-back vibe infused with fun. This lively bar and restaurant is renowned for its creative frozen daiquiris, including the infamous Deck Diesel—a tantalizing mix of orange, vodka, and grain alcohol that packs a punch.
With so many little restaurants to choose from in the village on Siesta Key you would be wise to give this place a try on your next visit. From the outstanding service to beach atmosphere without being on the beach, it is worth it. For starters, the service was exceptional, and our server was consistent in ensuring we were doing okay. My wife ordered fish and chips and let me tell you, their chips are truly delicious. The burger I ordered had a definite seasoning to it that has made it one of my favorite burgers on the Key, and in Sarasota. The only real downside to this location, and pretty much every other restaurant in the village, is parking.

We arrived right at 3:00 to begin the happy hour. They didn't seem to have very many servers so it took a while to get served.

This is a very typical, beachy, touristy place. It's right in the heart of the restaurant / bar / shopping district. Open air, a lot of different types of seatings, large menu (but very typical fried bar food). Loved their daiquiris and when I go again I'll try different ones. I do believe you can combine different flavors together. Come as you are. It is a very loud busy place so if you want something more low key this probably isn't the place for you.

The ingredients in/on my "Bikini Bagel" were fresh and well-balanced. Which I greatly appreciated. The avocado on my dish was cut fresh —for my dish. The fig was for sure my favorite —thickly sliced and placed atop the avocado. I was all for it. We're on a quick pass through on our way to Fort Myers, so we needed something quick. What a treat! Totally unexpected to find such good eats. The price is fair for the portions and the vibe outside is a must.

Highly recommended breakfast spot! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, with fast and friendly service. The hostess was especially welcoming—she even chatted with us since we were all from PA. I ordered the half and half special which included chicken and waffles and gumbo. The chicken and waffles with chipotle honey sauce were absolutely delicious. The waffle was perfectly cooked, and the chicken was tender. Gumbo was packed with flavor! The biscuits were huge and satisfying. If you enjoy mimosas, don’t miss the lemon blueberry mimosa—my first time trying that combo, and it won’t be my last. 10/10! The only minor downside was that some of the food arrived lukewarm, as if it had been waiting on the rest of the order. Still, I would absolutely go back and highly recommend this spot in the charming Siesta Key Village.

We love coming to Siesta Key! Sadly, we had not tried Flavio’s until tonight. Seven of us went and they were great about accommodating a large party!

Don’t skip dessert though, the lemonchello was our favorite and the tiramisu was a close second. Drinks were strong and good!

We were never asked for coffee or dessert, just if we were ready for the Check. 20% gratuity was added automatically and it wasn’t worth 2!!

The Big Water Fish Market is a wonderful spot for fresh seafood on Siesta Key. They have a full-scale fish market where you can buy fresh fish to prepare yourself, and they also have a restaurant where you can enjoy prepared dishes with seafood. If they don't have what you're looking for, they won't sell it!
Absolutely a great place!!! It’s a little hole in the wall that only has 6 tables and a little bar, but the food was incredible. We had the crab cake appetizer and seared Tuna tacos with hush puppies, the Tuna was soooo good, the fish tacos are really good and they have a great option for sides, we had cucumber and tomato in a balsamic reduction. The fish and chips are fresh and hand battered. We had to try the key lime pie it’s their mom’s recipe and it did not disappoint. Our server was friendly and helpful with the menu options. I would definitely recommend finding this place and trying it out!!!

We stopped here per a friends recommendation and we had planned to only stop here once during our 4-day visit and try the other restaurants in the area, but that quickly turned into 3 visits in 4 days. no other resturant in the area compared!! the food was exceptionally cooked and seasoned. Our server was a rockstar as she was the only server had had for each of our 3 visits and she killed it! Big Water will be a staple for every visit to siesta key from here on out!

Absolute FAVORITE place during our vacation. We ate 3 meals there in a week's time. Had oysters on the half shell, seared tuna tacos, key lime pie, hot pot I think it was called (it's like a crab boil), shrimp tacos, fish tacos, crab legs, hush puppies, caeser salad with fresh anchovies, seared tuna appetizer + siesta key light beer & a local IPA that was on tap. EVERYTHING was mouth watering. I was a walking ad all week letting people know about it. Thank you for the fresh fish, cool atmosphere, and great customer service! Cheers!

If you are looking for a DDD place, this is it! Not much to look at but outstanding food. Great portions also. Crabs legs, fresh fish, shrimp, and salads are all top notch. They have some outside seating. We came for lunch. I highly recommend this place.

My goodness, the food was good! This is a little out of the way shop that is definitely worth the stop! But what I really want to rave about are the people who work there. In my not so smart move, I hung my purse on my chair, thereby forgetting it when we left. Of course, I did not have any contact information inside. And to make matters worse, I didn’t realize I left it until several days later as I packed in early morning hours to return home on an early flight. When we landed in Michigan, we called the restaurant and Jenn, the manager, said that, yes, my purse was there. I asked if she’d be willing to ship it to my home, using the credit card I had in the purse to pay. Within a few days, it arrived! When you think of all the people who had access to my credit cards (our waiter, other workers, and management), each person was honest and full of integrity and I am incredibly grateful. Additionally, I offered to Venmo Jenn some money to compensate her time at the post office and she rejected my offer. Thank you for making the world a little better Big Water Fish Market employees!

Clayton's Siesta Grille is a charming eatery located just minutes from Christopher Wheeler Park on Old Stickney Point Rd. The restaurant offers a cozy and art-filled space with a spacious patio overlooking the water, making it an ideal spot for families looking for casual or fine dining experiences. Known for its creative American cuisine with Mediterranean influences, the menu features wood-fired pizzas, fresh seafood, and rotating specials that have made it a local favorite.
This is our 33rd anniversary weekend. While on the beach my wife made reservations online at Clayton’s. Unbeknownst to me, she let Clayton’s know this was our anniversary dinner. When we got to the restaurant Marin, the hostess congratulated us for our special day. We then decided to have a drink before dinner when our bartender Luca, again congratulated us for our anniversary. As we were finishing up our cocktails, Mavis, the owner/manager came over to talk with us and once again told us how much she appreciated us having this very special dinner at her restaurant. After being seated, our server Luca echoed the same message as everyone else we came in touch with, sincere appreciation for celebrating our special evening. The cherry on the milkshake was when Mavis personally brought out a special treat for us just before desert. Another great big shoutout to Marin for the picture as we were leaving. Thank you Clayton team for making this one of the best evenings ever! We appreciate each and every one of you! BTW, our meals were A+++!

Ate dinner here on a Monday night and had a good experience. The free bread appetizer is SO good; the bread (and butter) are flavored with herbs, so it’s better than the typical bread. The mac n cheese appetizer was also great; I just wish it was bigger, as it was gone in a matter of seconds with only 2 people sharing it. The pappardelle was decent, but did lack flavor; it tasted similarly to the plain noodles covered in butter that I ate as a kid. My husband’s red snapper on shrimp risotto, the fresh catch of the day, was delicious. The waiter was nice/personable and, with my reservation, we were immediately seated, even though parking was really limited. The restaurant atmosphere was nice, though nothing special, and lacked a waterside view. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place and come back, but I’d order something else besides the pasta.

Gilligan's Island Bar & Grill is a popular beach bar located in Siesta Key, Florida, known for its vibrant and lively atmosphere. The tiki-style space offers a laid-back vibe and happy-hour deals, making it a top destination for nightlife and live music on the island. With ample outdoor seating options under an iconic tiki roof, visitors can enjoy casual fare and tropical-style indoor and outdoor bars. The bar also features a dance floor and hosts bands for live performances.
An upbeat, lively place to eat whilst at Siesta Key! The food and atmosphere was great but what really made our experience extra special was our server Shaun T. He was kind, helpful, cordial and also went the extra mile to take a precious photo. I took a chance and tried the Chef’s Favorite, “The Native”- a sweet and savory Whitefish sandwich on toasted Raisin bread. Very unique and tasty! The sweet potato fries with wicked sauce were melt in the mouth scrumptious. And the Not So Rum Runner was a perfect refreshing treat for my daughter. 🍹💜🥰

If you're looking for the tiki bar experience you won't go away lacking. Plenty of seating, indoors or outdoors, shady or full sun tucked into all kinds of spots. There's some corn hole or other games for free. Get a cold pitcher of beer for $10 or a well drink for $3 during the 11-6 Happy Hour. Our server Drew happily took our drink and food orders. Our food came out hot and ready to eat. The fries were cooked perfectly. I got the fried "Jumbo" shrimp. They were extra large at best and a little overcooked, but seasoned well. My wife got the beans and rice bowl with a huge piece of grouper on it. She couldn't finish it. Everyone else loved there meals. Drew helped make it an amazing experience.

Atmosphere was very tropical and plenty of live music in this restaurant as well as surrounding restaurants. We sat on the porch outside and I had the fried shrimp with cocktail sauce and my wife had a salad and salsa and fresh made chips. Raider was attentive and friendly.

We almost didn’t try this place out due to some of the other reviews. But after not being happy at another place we decided to just do it. And we are happy we did. This place was nothing like the bad reviews we read. Outside of the weather being hot with possible thunderstorms, and having no fan on our table. The food was great! It was piping hot and fresh. The chicken quesadilla was the best. The fish a chips were good as well. The staff was friendly and our waitress was very attentive. We only wished the general manager had visited our table. We were visiting, but this place is an additional to why we will return. Look passed any bad reviews and give this place a try. We found it was worth it!

Beachy Vibes and Big Flavor in Siesta Key 🌴🐟🍹We always forget to take photos because we’re too busy enjoying our conversations. Gilligan’s is a must-visit every time we’re in Siesta Key. The beachy, laid-back vibe paired with drink specials (served in fun souvenir cups!) keeps us coming back. The fish tacos were loaded with crispy white fish, check out the size of that portion! They were topped with coconut rum slaw and full of flavor. The beef burgers are just as massive and satisfying for non-seafood lovers. This time we also tried the Drunken Chicken Sandwich, which wasn’t bad at all, especially paired with sweet potato fries and an extra side of their tropical rum sauce for dipping. It really hit the spot. Solid drinks, generous portions, and island vibes make this place a go-to for casual dining and good times. 🌺🍔🍤

Spearfish Grille is a warm and inviting restaurant located in Siesta Key Marina, offering a delightful dining experience for both locals and visitors. Since its opening in March 2018, this eatery has been dedicated to serving the freshest locally caught seafood with creative twists on classic dishes. The menu features a variety of grilled and fried seafood plates paired with flavorful veggies and street corn.
Spear Fish Siesta Grill serves up very good, incredibly fresh food with just the right amount of seasoning. The fish tacos stand out—they’re a bit different, served over a flavorful base of beans and Mexican corn, but the twist works beautifully. Everything tastes clean and well-prepared, with fresh vegetables that add a crisp, healthy touch to every plate. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a fresh take on coastal favorites! Small little fun place :)

Beer wise, they give little paper cups to try it (like as a sample). They give out free water as a starter drink, live music, live games on TVs, and fresh fish caught by the restaurant owners and employees (not market bought). Not a whole lot of decorations but nice and outdoor atmosphere. Outdoor air conditioning so it’s good to eat outside even in 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Silverware, a napkin dispenser, salt and pepper, and bottle of ketchup at each table. It’s not exactly an amazing place to have a quick snack but if you are willing to wait, you will be rewarded with an amazingly cooked meal. Have something specific you want? You can customize your meal entirely, as long as they have the ingredients. Recommend

The Spearfish Grille is easy to get to and sits on the water by a boat marina access. Parking is all over and can be free or paid for. It was over the top busy when we visited. They do not take reservations. We got there around 630 PM and waited for 10 minutes to be acknowledged to actually get a seat. They took our name and seated our group of 6 quickly. There was a singer playing a guitar with 80s/yacht rock and not too loud. Then we waited. And waited. And waited. So, if you go, be prepared to wait. No fault of the staff as they were hopping, and the place was busy. Menu pics show the options, with fresh fish available daily with different options. The Hogfish tacos were very good, clean, and refreshing. The only thing was that the sweet potato fries came out cold and rubbery. Overall, the location was nice, the parking was ok, the service was slow, the taste and flavor ok, and the price was around $330 for 6 people. For an average of $50 a person, I was expecting more, and ended at 4/5 stars.

Our first visit to this incredible restaurant was nothing short of phenomenal. A gentleman who took us parasailing highly recommended it. We were warmly welcomed by the radiant Jasmine, whose infectious smile and warm personality set the tone for an unforgettable experience. With her vast knowledge, she graciously answered our numerous questions about the fresh catches and menu, offering expert suggestions that proved to be pure perfection. We're forever grateful, Jasmine, for your exceptional service, uplifting smile, and genuine hospitality. We can't wait to return next year and request the pleasure of your service again.

On our recent trip to Siesta Key, we ended our trip with dinner at Spearfish Grille. In hindsight, we should have started AND ended at SG. It was a great experience and, for our family, a great environment to eat great food and enjoy good music. The four of us disagreed on what to order so we ended up ordering 6-7 things to cover everyone. That was a good move as everything was really good. Started with the Tripletail Ceviche, Ahi Nachos and Coconut Shrimp. The ceviche was as fresh as you get, the sauce on the ahi nachos was sweet but not overpowering and the coconut shrimp were perfectly fried. For entrees we went with multiple Fresh Catch plates (Grilled Hogfish & Blackened Grouper) with Potato of the Day (mashed on our visit), Roasted Root Vegetables (Beets) and Fish and Chips (Snapper). The fresh fish plates were amazing and the portions were large. The F&C were great and only lightly breaded so the snapper stood out, not a pound of beer batter. The outdoor dining was perfect with the breeze coming in to cool things down. The live music was fun and complementary. The service was great and attentive. Even though they were busy (the entire outdoor area was full at 6:00), our server was on it and delivered a great dining experience. You could tell the team was focused on CX and were passionate about the food. I’m not a big fan of 5-star reviews as it skews reality and waters down the effectiveness of Google. In this case though, Spearfish Grille nailed it and deserves 5 stars. Thanks for a wonderful time. We will be back for sure - first AND last meal of the trip.

The Lobster Pot Restaurant is a charming, family-run eatery located in Siesta Village on Siesta Key, Florida. With a cozy and inviting atmosphere, this restaurant offers a seafood-heavy menu along with some Portuguese staples. Established by the son of the original owners of the Lobster Pot in Cape Cod, this establishment brings New England culinary tradition to the sunny shores of Sarasota.
We had a great dinner experience. Arrived early enough on a Friday to beat the crowd, but it filled up fairly quickly. The Village is a nice area to visit near the awesome Siesta Key beach. The food was good. My wife raved about her Salmon and pasta dish. My only constructive feedback would be that the beans were a bit boring. Otherwise, all good! Carlos was our waiter and was very professional and attentive. We'd definitely return when in the area.

On that day,our server was Allison and she did such a great job attending to our group and making sure everyone was taken care of! Great job Allison!!

The lobster bisque (with extra chunks!!) is to die for. The sangria was incredible and I had to have a second glass. I even enjoyed the cornbread at the beginning which was the perfect texture and sweetness. I’ll always be a regular here and would encourage you to make it one of your regular spots too!!

Great spot on the water. Their website said every seat has a water view and they weren’t kidding! (I was chilly, so if it’s cold outside bring a sweatshirt). I had the jambalaya and it was delicious. A big bowl filled with shrimp, chicken and sausage! It was spicy but I didn’t mind. I brought a good bit of it home for another meal. My friend had the shrimp tacos and while they were good there were only two and she didn’t feel they were dressed out adequately for a meal. A little something in the taco besides 3 shrimp and a little bit of lettuce left her hungry. Our server was polite, friendly and attentive.

What a great dining experience. The restaurant has several layers to sit, right on the water, inside, or in between. We were able to watch the sun set while we ate dinner. We started with the nacho, which was plenty in it self for the three of us, as our appetizer. After seeing the wide selection of food, my party all decided to get a variant of the tacos and they did not disappoint. After sampling eachothers none of us could decide which was the best. The waiting staff was super friendly and constantly refilling our drinks. The best part was the food was very reasonably priced. All in all I would drive a ways just to come back.

The food was decent. The first server clearly didn't want to be at work, but the second server was wonderful.

Why not.  It won't be at the top of my to-do list, though.

Nice outside seating area (uncovered) overlooking the canal. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly. The menu wasn’t very diverse for me - they lack salmon in their main plate menu, for example, amongst other “staple” dishes you’d expect at a waterfront restaurant. Nonetheless, you come back here because of the outside seating and vibes. It’s a great place to bring friends and have a nice time while watching the sunset. I’d give this place a solid 4.5.

Once again, tortillas need to be cooked before you call it a taco. Blackened means color on the fish. Nice flavors, but the cook needs to be versed on some basics. Staff was very pleasant but our waitress seemed to be scared to approach our table.

Meaney's Mini Donuts & Coffee House is a charming walk-up donut shop located in a delightful island community. The mini-donuts are freshly made, rolled off the assembly line and straight into the fryer before being served hot and coated with various toppings. These bite-sized treats are light, fluffy, and reminiscent of funnel cake but with a denser texture.
Mini donuts were great, fresh and hot. We asked if the peanut butter was really sweet and the guy answered, he didn't know. I would think working at a place you would have dinner knowledge of this sort. The peanut butter was sweet thankful we split an order of 6.

We had a turtle cheese cake mini donuts and the french toast mini donuts. They were both good and not overly sweet. The french toast was better than the cheese cake.

The donuts were really great! We got a mix of the powdered and cinnamon sugar. 19 for $6 which is nice considering the quality and taste. We tried the iced coffee for $4 but it wasn’t that satisfying. It’s a pretty cute place overall!

Meaney's is a cool little donut shack in Siesta Keys Florida we ended up getting the cinnamon and the glazed. They were freshly made and so soft I thought they were really good. The girl at the window was sweet and nice she helped me decide what to get cause they do have a good variety of different donuts. 100% recommend!

I love these donuts! They’re so good! But this year (2025) July 8-12 week we have tried to get them from their stickney point location to no avail every time we walk up to the window regardless of how long we wait there is a be back soon sign. Been there four times only to find the sign. So owner of that location, your employee is likely taking advantage. Drove all the way down to the Village location, where I saw the sign for a sec but then was finally able to get some donuts! The manager (pictured) was so polite and kind. Thank you!

This place catches your attention anytime you are close. The shoppe is popular and ready to serve. The donuts are amazing and super yummy. Early morning is a popular time for people to place orders for donuts and coffee.

Sub Zero Nitrogen Ice Cream is a popular chain known for its made-to-order ice cream and yogurt, offering options like vegan and soy. What sets it apart is the use of liquid nitrogen in the ice cream-making process, creating a unique and innovative experience for customers. Customers can watch as their creamy desserts are prepared right before their eyes. The brand has garnered praise for its catering services, with customizable sundae bars being a huge hit at events.
I loooooove ice cream and for me nothing beats subzero ice cream. My family agrees with me. Love the creamy, velvety, light and smooth texture. The flavors are rich and natural. Lot's of options to satisfy most tastes. My favorite is the custard base, cheesecake/caramel/malt flavor with mixed berries. So good! We don't have subzero at home (thank goodness or else we would go broke;) but we enjoy your ice cream several times every time we visit Sarasota.

Interesting take on ice cream! Everything is made custom to order and the selections can be overwhelming if you are creating your own. They have a large selection of customization options or preselected creations. Overall not really my preference in ice cream and the waffle was very stale but worth a try for something different.

Waffle cones were a bit stale and the organization was just so off. But the ice cream was super good and worth it!
Kendal B — Google review
The peanut butter creation was great, and interesring to watch it being made. The ice cream itself was subtle in flavor, but the toppings really made it great so I recommend getting add-ins! Regular with waffle cone was almost $8 so a little expensive but good size and worth checking out! We had no wait (can't say the same about other places around!)

My husband and I first tried Sub Zero ice cream when we moved to Sarasota five years ago. It was amazing! When we got engaged a year ago, I knew I wanted them to cater our wedding. Our wedding was in April this year and the choose-your-own-sundae Sub Zero bar was a HUGE hit!! The guests kept lining up for more, and afterwards we received so many compliments – many people said it was their favorite part! The staff who worked our event were great, very friendly, and professional. When my husband and I served each other our first bite of ice cream (instead of the traditional cake slice) the Sub Zero staff blasted the liquid nitrogen into the air behind us and made for some really fun photos! (courtesy of our professional photographer, Alisa Forbis of Alisa Sue Photography). We highly recommend Sub Zero for event catering!!

Isan Thai Restaurant is a hidden gem nestled in a strip mall, offering an authentic taste of Thailand right in Siesta Key. This charming eatery invites you to embark on a culinary adventure with its extensive menu that features beloved Thai classics alongside unique dishes from the Isan region. The inviting atmosphere, adorned with beautiful Asian-inspired decor and cozy booths, sets the perfect backdrop for family dining.
This place is amazing!! Very good service, cute very clean atmosphere, and the food....WOW!! It was SO good. I started with the appetizer of a salad, and it was really different and very good. Green papaya, tomatoes and carrots, with this really delicious, spicy dressing- very unique. For the main dish, I got the Thai Sweet and Sour with Tofu, modified it to be medium spicy hot, and it was FABULOUS! Lots of Tofu, chewy and just right, everything was just perfect ❤️ Note: While there were SO many things to choose from on this menu, one thing that I really loved is that you could get Tofu as a protein option for literally any dish on the menu, and they know how to do it just perfect here, nice and soft chewy...A Vegan DREAM come true!!

After ordering Isan Thai’s amazing food from Uber Eats for 9 months, we finally made it into the charming dining room on Tamiami Trail today.

Our server Orn was lovely - all of the staff were very friendly and kind. We will definitely be back!

We have always enjoyed dining here, but today, our party of five was seated in a small booth with an extra chair, despite the availability of larger tables. We were surprised to find a 20% gratuity automatically added to our bill. While we appreciate good service and usually tip generously, we felt this was excessive, especially since our waiter did not offer drink refills, perhaps because the gratuity was already included. We believe that tips should reflect the quality of service, and we would have preferred the option to tip based on our experience. It would be helpful if there was a sign indicating that a gratuity is automatically added for larger parties.

Such kind and attentive service. Generously portioned. Fresh. Savory. The Thai iced tea was lovely. Asked for medium heat, was given it a bit more mild. Perhaps they wanted to play it safe in case we were first-timers. The Isan sampler came with a variety of nice sauces, and the spring rolls were crispy. The seafood Radnah is one of my favorites.

Really cute place. I had takeout from this place before and their yellow curry was so full of flavor with coconut milk goodness! We also ordered the fried whole fish which came as a filet (they sell out quickly) and it was pretty tasty as well! The sweet and sour sauce they serve with is is yummy! I highly recommend coming here! Their crab Rangoon were stuffed with filling which I liked 👍

Amazing Thai Restaurant!! The food was delicious, and the services were fast. From the outside don't look like a fancy restaurant but once you are inside, you see the decoration from Thailand. They have 2 menus lunch and dinner, and they also have delivery with Door Dash. They have a drink menu with beers, wines, and drinks. When we arrived, we had to wait 15 min because the place we're full, I ordered some grilled shrimp, and the sauce was the different was spicy and tangy. My main dish was the stir fried cashew with beef and was delicious, the rice was serve with a shape of heart ❤️, my wife ordered the spring rolls and was good, but she was amazed with the yellow curry with the extra tofu she said was delicious. For drinks, we ordered a glass of Malbec Wine and Michelob Ultra that was cold like it had to be!. The waitress was fast and cordial.

I’m really picked and selective when it comes to my Thai food. It’s a food type that I really enjoy and have hd my fair share first hand from Thailand. Back to this restaurant, it has a very native and authentic feel. I selected a red curry dish and Angela selected Pad Thai (my personal favorite). Both dishes were amazing and the hospitality was too notch. If you’re in the mood for Thai food, definitely consider Isan Thai Restaurant!!!

We love this restaurant, as it has a very pleasant, cozy atmosphere. Their Pad Thai is excellent, as well as their Red Curry. I do not like their soups that much, as they seems a bit bland for a classic Thai soup. Their coconut ice cream is great.

Visited 27Apr25. My girlfriend and I ordered garlic knots and cheese pizza with extra cheese. Garlic knots were really good, not over done and not too squishy. Pry could have used a little more garlic, possibly some minced. The cheese pizza was good also, cheese was stringy when I picked up the piece! A little greasy. It was a bit confusing how to place your order. There wasn't a hostess or sign to say seat yourself. So my girlfriend went up to the bar and ordered. There was bar seating, a small seating section which looked deserted and a large outside seating which was shared with another restaurant. Server wasn't over the top or anything. Don't check on us at all. Outside seating had live music that was cool.

I had a terrible experience with 3.14 Pi Pizzeria. While two of the pizzas were acceptable, the other two arrived completely messed up—no cheese, no marinara, just some pepperoni thrown on top.

I won’t be ordering from here again and would advise others to think twice before doing so.

I didn't try any food during my visit, however I decided to come here after my visit to Crescent Beach and kill time before my dolphin sunset cruise. I went to the location in Siesta Key Village and wanted to see how different this location is. I loved how there's a upstairs deck and you have a wonderful view of the area, since there were kids upstairs I decided to stay downstairs. Where I met a wonderful staff member (I forgot her name but it was her first day and she was very welcoming). This spot was actually a lot more fun, they have a huge back area, a spinning wheel (I won a free drink) yay!, a nice huge selection of daiquiris. I absolutely loved the giant chair to sit on, it's so much fun for a photo. They also have this cool feature of a machine to make you own magnets and I loved it!

They also loved the freebie that came with their food and were so excited to take it home. ​On top of that, the peel and eat shrimp were out of this world—fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.

We absolutely love this Old Salty Dog location near St. Armands Circle in Sarasota. The restaurant is waterfront and right next to a marina/boat yard and marine center. There are always boats being launched, refueling, or just cruising by. On a sunny day, it is a perfect waterfront spot in Sarasota to boat watch. The Pelicans are always swooping for fish and putting on a show for restaurant guests. You can also occasionally see jelly fish, we just saw a couple hundred swimming by on our last visit. Rain or shine, Old Salty Dog is always worth a visit. The patio gets the perfect amount of sun on a sunny day with light sun shades, a gulf breeze, and the perfect sunset back drop. On rainy days, you might have to wait a minute for an inside table or seat at the bar because they stay busy, but it is worth the wait. As the name implies, they are known for their deep fried hot dogs and dog bites which are always a favorite. The burgers also hit the spot for a change up and the seafood doesn’t disappoint. If you’re looking for a frozen drink on a hot day, a delicious rum runner, or just a beer they have something for everyone. The parking lot gets full pretty quick with limited spaces while they are working on the building next door, but additional lots are across the street and a short 2 minute walk. We’d highly recommend Old Salty Dog for a casual waterfront restaurant in Sarasota with good food, good drinks, and the ability to come in your swim suit by boat or car.

We stopped by this place after a long walk on the beach and it’s a typical tourist eatery place. The food is just OK.

With glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and a glass of fresh lemonade the total came to $50, which is way too pricey for what we got.

Great place for breakfast/brunch when you are in Siesta key village. We ordered crepe , egg Benedict, mimosa & orange juice. Crepe was good but part of it was a little soggy. Egg Benedict was delicious. Espresso could have been better. Orange juice was so good- please order it, it was the best.

July 26, 2025 - Two for dinner before a play @ Florida Studio Theatre. A little far from walkable to FST so an incredible and fantastic THANK YOU to the merchants in the building and Mediterraneo for the ample and free parking so we are not paying the thieves of the City or Sarasota for parking nonsense and another $350 predatory towing bill!!! This is a fantastic looking establishment!!! The layout is efficient but felt family friendly and the clientele was all smiles!! The main dining area was packed and was turning during our meal in the back dining area (we requested) how it too was packed when we were leaving at 7:30 pm! This felt special...... And it was!!! Service by Ralph was some of the best in my 45 years of business/global travel. Of note my dad (deceased for now 30 years) must have been smiling that night as one of my measures for a great restaurant HE told me about from his college days in the 1940s was from the Tally-Ho restaurant in Chicago. The wait staff was drilled on NEVER letting the water glass get below half filled for even 1 minute!!! THIS was the case here at Mediterraneo. Not just the water glass but the tables were cleared and bused swiftly and efficiently. AWESOME zone defense and service!!! We had a little bread and some chopped olives and olive oil. A little bruschetta made and appearance as well. The mixed drinks were very good according to the "boss" and I had a Stella N/A that was served properly in a chilled glass. Not crazy expensive. My wife ordered the Tropicale salad which was arugula w/heart of palms and avocado and some very nice large slices of parmesan. I had some after her gleeful report of freshness and nice palm pieces and the cheese was fantastic!! 10/10 I ordered the pinto bean soup de jour (cup) that was also excellent. Nice full bodied broth and beautifully flavored. A touch saltier than I like, but this was a winner. 9/10 Ralph highly recommended the Veal Chop and that was an absolutely fantastic suggestion. My wife enjoyed it whole-heartedly. I had a bite and it was truly awesome product and wonderfully prepared, seasoned, and cooked!!! She commented and I agreed also a bit heavy on the salt. 9/10 I went with the Capellini Primavera a angel-hair pasta with a variety of vegetables in an oil and garlic sauce. First of this was a perfectly made and spot on TEXTBOOK cooked al dente (first cooked firm to the tooth) pasta. This was GREAT!!! The zucchini and other vegetables were also firm and not mushy boiled wet filler!!! A great job!!! Only quip is the oil and garlic was very tasty but the dish was very oily and also a little heavy handed on the salt as well. 9/10 We know we are coming back here! As a matter of fact my wife is changing a birthday celebration "with the girls" from XXXXXXXX (smile) around the corner Italian spot to here at Mediterraneo !!! Always glad to have an experience like this......and also enjoy giving back to my dining-out warriors lookin' for good food and service. I FOUND ONE FOR YOU!!!

Great vibes 🤩 This place is so classy but laid back at the same time. It’s not your typical beach bar because the service is top-tier. We LOVED the espresso martini & chocolate martini. The pizza was good and I am obsessed with the grilled Brussel sprouts. Cant go wrong with the wings & stay for the live music! Coming back for sure 💁🏻‍♀️

This used to be the go to place on a weekend night. The martini selection is so limited now. Not sure what happened, but that is what made it unique. Now it's just an average bar with basics.

Deli
The Main Bar Sandwich Shop, established in 1958 by former circus stars, is a beloved lunch spot in downtown Sarasota. The restaurant offers over 50 sandwiches, with the Famous Italian being a standout choice at $8.95. This sandwich features salami, ham, and provolone cheese topped with tomatoes, peppers, onions, and a flavorful blend of oil and spices on a toasted bun. The eatery's walls are adorned with old circus photos for added charm.
So my first time was last year and I ordered a club sandwich, everything was great. I just ordered the Famous Italian sub. I will be posting another review as soon as I get my sub. This place has amazing reviews but also a few of disappointment. I know that sometimes we are slammed, but my first experience was great, and I am expecting the same with my order today. :) UPDATED review: I know it doesn't look like the advertised picture (remember, advertised pictures of food or plates won't look exactly like the picture on the menu) but here is my humble opinion: I liked the taste of it, so no complaints about that, very tasteful. Bread didn't taste like it was toasted enough, it was a bit soft (not stale) more like pressed on, but I don't know if it's supposed to be toasted. But not complaining here! Overall, it was a good sub. I am not a fan of Italian subs but it tasted really good, I will definitely order again.

I love local offerings. The atmosphere of the sandwich shop is amazing. The old dated vibes brings nostalgia and comfort, however; the food, not so amazing. I ordered the Italian with mayo. The bread was stale, flaky, not fresh tasting. The sandwich itself had no filling. Skimpy and mostly bread. Could not even tell if there was deli meats between the slices of bread. I asked for a cup of hot water with lemon. Jessica brought hot water in a tall glass. Why? Glass is the most inappropriate thing to serve hot water in. I asked for a coffee. The coffee was served in a plate in a puddle of more hot coffee. The coffee tasted like it was either instant or was brewed in a machine that has never been properly cleaned. It’s too bad because this place has so much potential. I ate my order and did not raise a complaint as my server Jessica was not too friendly or welcoming. Didn’t want an attitude as I received when I placed my order.

I haven’t been in a long time, but it was still a solid Saturday lunch for the two of us. We had the Captain’s wrap, which is roast beef, with roasted red peppers, red onions and jalapeño mayo, and original Italian as well as a bowl of Italian Wedding soup. The soup hit the spot on a cooler day, the Captain was the better of the two sandwiches today, and the original Italian was ok. The meat on the Italian was good and decent portion, but it was a little light on the accompanying toppings for my preference, i.e. lettuce, tomato, onions and chopped peppers. I held off eating until I was able to finally get my servers attention to get some spicy mustard, which enhanced the flavor for the rest of the sandwich. I have been to this place off and on over 40 years and will of course be back. Love to support local!

I normally don’t leave negative reviews, and I want to start by saying the staff we interacted with were pretty kind. We came to this restaurant specifically for the DJ event we saw online, but unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. As soon as we walked in, the restaurant reeked of marijuana - it was so strong they had to prop the front door open. Initially, we thought it was one staff member, but we were later told it was coming from the kitchen. Despite contemplating leaving, we stayed because we were hungry and wanted to see the DJ. The food ended up being mediocre, and in hindsight, we should have left immediately. Additionally, the restrooms were shocking - almost every ceiling tile was moldy, and there were spider webs throughout along the ceiling, which raises serious concerns about cleanliness and what’s happening in the kitchen. To top it off, a visibly drunk man came in with his dog off-leash, and the staff allowed the dog to remain inside. Even though the dog was well-behaved, it felt completely inappropriate and unprofessional. Overall, I found the environment unsanitary and unwelcoming. I hope this review is useful to others, and I will not be returning.

My visit to Meaney's Donuts in St. Armand's Circle was a delightful and affordable indulgence, making it the perfect pitstop for a quick snack while exploring the vibrant shopping district. I was drawn to this establishment by a previous experience in Texas, where I had the pleasure of trying Big Red mini donuts, the promise of inventive flavors was met as soon as I entered and viewed the posted menu. I opted for the apple pie and strawberry cheesecake mini doughnuts, and both were exceptional. What sets Meaney's apart is their commitment to freshness – every order of these delectable treats is not cooked until ordered, travels a small conveyor belt fryer and is topped and served to you seconds later. The result is a warm, melt-in-your-mouth experience that truly elevates the classic donut. The menu at Meaney's Donuts is a treasure trove of options rarely found in typical donut shops. The variety is staggering, offering a delightful departure from the ordinary. Customer service here was excellent as well, as I asked first if I could do a half and half order of two flavors, and then asking if I could add cinnamon & sugar to the apple pie donuts, all of which were met with a absolutely! This personalized touch added a layer of warmth and flavor that made the already delicious donuts even more memorable. What makes Meaney's Donuts even more appealing is their affordability. In a bustling shopping area like St. Armand's Circle, where many restaurants are somewhat pricey, Meaney's offers a budget-friendly option for a tasty and satisfying snack. Whether you're strolling through the shops or enjoying the vibrant atmosphere, Meaney's provides a delicious and cost-effective indulgence for those with a sweet tooth, that can be enjoyed on a bench just across the street. If you find yourself in St. Armand's Circle and crave a donut experience beyond the ordinary, Meaney's is the place to be. You'll receive a fresh product from people offering great customer service, all at a price that wont break the bank.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Meaney's Mini Donuts on n St.Armands Circle in Sarasota, and while I appreciate the charm of its location in a tourist area, I must express some disappointment with my experience. Upon entering, I was greeted by a rather strong odor of what seemed to be recycled oil, which did raise concerns about the freshness of the donuts. It was a bit off-putting, to be honest. Additionally, the donuts themselves were noticeably greasier than I prefer. It felt like they had been fried in a substantial amount of oil, resulting in a heavy and less than ideal texture. While it's understandable that businesses in tourist-centric areas may have a different set of priorities, I believe that quality and consistency should not be compromised. Meaney's Mini Donuts might cater to the transient crowd, but for discerning locals or those seeking a superior donut experience, there are certainly better options available. I hope that they can consider these aspects to enhance their offerings for a broader range of customers.

The store, the service, and the food is lovely. The Donuts are on the lighter sider, rather than the heavy dough side. Perfectly fried, not overly sweet. All the store merch is fun & quirky. The music isn't too loud and it's just an enjoyable place to walk into.

I can only say that these donuts look tasty as I didn’t get to try any. They only allow you to buy a minimum of 6 and I only wanted a few. I wish that they would make an option to buy a smaller quantity. They are made fresh to order and all look amazing. There isn’t really seating inside, I would say it’s more of an in and out coffee joint. The best parking is street parking! If there isn’t any close by, plan to walk!
