This place has been open for decades, so that speaks volumes in a time when restaurants last a few years. The food is always prepared just right and the chef and owner are always changing it to keep current. But the staff and service is #1 ... this is a Sarasota Star. In my over 30 dinners here, they have always done an excellent job! Try having a dinner at the bar... it is an easy way to get in when it's crowded

The service, food, ambience...all awesome. It was our first visit. We'll recommend it, and though we don't live here, we visit again . In particular, great for a special evening.
