I’ve spent quite a bit of time in the Sarasota area (especially around Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island) over the years and snacked around a fair bit (nothing pairs better with the beach than eating, right?).
We lucked out with an amazing table so it felt like a private dining experience but overall this place is hopping! Definitely make reservations. I had the seafood pasta but absolutely everything everyone had looked amazing.
We’ve been coming to this place for breakfast since it was a tiny little indoor restaurant and it has since expanded into a huge footprint which includes quite a few feet in the sand tables and a fun tiki bar area.
I wanted to try a new place on St Armands Circle and this place didn’t disappoint. We had a large party so we were seated inside (if you’re a party of two definitely go for the sidewalk), but the food here was amazing.
This place is right on Pine Avenue so if you’re out shopping, stop in for a slice or take one to go for later.
Another childhood favorite, we always liked the City Island location because it’s right next to the marina and there’s always a lot going on. Nothing fancy, but good food.
