The special Walleye sandwich is so so good. The batter coating is great and the fish tastes great. At almost $10 though, I can't give it 5 stars. Why do I always have to wait like 10 minutes by the garbage dumpsters so they bring it out? read more

My first experience at Culvers and it did not disappoint. I had never been to one before and only heard about online how you have to get their butter burger. I'm also a huge sucker for fish and chips and when I saw that on the menu I had to grab it. My wife also got the chicken sandwich with a side of the cheese curds. We loved all our items, the burger was great and the fish was cooked perfectly also. Our dinner was pretty pricey, but I think it could have come down a lot more if I didn't get the fish and chip meal (which I really didn't need to). That said, overall it was a great price, especially compared to fast food places where you get half the food for a higher price. The staff were also amazing, the man behind the counter explained everything to us (as it was our first time) and even made a few suggestions. The building was nice and clean. Overall I think Culvers earns a spot of one of my favorite fast casual restaurants. read more

Stopped in for a bite. Used the app to pickup inside. App is very easy to use and precisely customize your order. I got the deluxe burger which was perfectly made. Also a side of onion rings. Went inside and the very nice staff had my order ready on time. They had my drink and milkshake in the pickup fridge to stay cool until pickup. This Culver's seemed to be better organized and staffed compared to others I have visited. Will definitely visit this location again. read more

Culver's - Culvers dulux with fries - Fast Food Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

It's 96 degrees outside, and all you can do is stay in the shade and drink something cold. And a Culver's milkshake is so perfect. We had just had a terrible Culver's experience in Orlando and we kind of needed a do-over to make it right again. So we popped in and got milkshakes and everyone was very friendly, and the place was quite clean. Next time I'll get curds LOL read more

Great cheeseburgers, decent fries, tasty frozen custard options. Very reasonable prices.

Dine in do NOT order delivery and/or carry out best to dine in when fresh. Loses flavor read more

Decided to come back for dinner. We both love their burgers and ice cream. One of the best burgers around. Their ice cream and sundaes are second to none. If you down load their app you will get great deals. Burgers are made to order. Service is great. You order at the counter and they bring it to your booth. Always clean and tidy inside. read more

We are big Culver's fans. Came on a Wednesday around 3pm. Our burgers were cold with the wrong cheese. We ate in. Shakes of course were delicious. We should have brought them back. read more

Always good, hot and made fresh, the burgers are a giant size never greasy Thank you guys read more

We had chicken sandwiches for lunch. Both were very thin and not great. Crispy was dry and grilled was very tough and stringy. We were both surprised and disappointed. The Culver's near our home is so much better. Never going back to this one read more

So yesterday I got a breakfast sandwich with biscuit. Biscuit was so hard and NOT FRESH that I could not eat it. It was also sticky wrapper. So I was pulling apart to eat what was inside when I found a long hair. DISGUSTING!! I did not have time to call about so I let it go. Today I was there and got BBQ grilled chicken sandwich with waffle fries. The fries were horrible. Every single piece was a mushy end piece. There was not a single waffle fry that was not an end piece. I gave them to the dogs. I will not be back. Over it! I tried but continued disappointments. Not again read more

This is one of my parent's favorite fast food restaurants so we decided to go. It did not disappoint, I would say it is better than most fast food places. Service was good, restaurant was clean. I did not get a shake but heard they were good. I would go back when in the area. For a fast food restaurants it was good. read more

First time trying Culver's and I have to say I was kind if impressed...It actually exceeded my expectations for a fast food joint...This place closes at 10pm on Sunday and I got there with less than 10 minutes to and not only did I get in the store and put an order in but I got to sit down and eat...And, the shake machine wasn't down ! I got some tasty custard too lol...I got a build your own burger basket where you pick your own toppings..I got a double and I was surprised that it was that tasty...it came with crinkle cut fries that were decent too.. I also got a custard with peanut butter sauce mixed it and that was really good..Not sure how healthy it was but it was good...Also, the girl working the counter was friendly and helpful. read more

Decent food but hit or miss with quality and customer service. I brought my kids to the Sarasota location and the employees were arguing and swearing back and forth and everyone just seemed bothered. read more

Food tastes great but I have to give only 2 stars bc of the employees. Its 5-7 teenagers, hanging out and your basically interrupting them to order food. Then one girl employee walked in and said, "I dont want to be here". Then proceeded to say how disgusting one of the custard flavors was. I would say there is zero supervision. The front door says "Proudly owned by the Crotch Family". The Crotch family should be there helping with the management. My suggestion, get your food to go or you will have a Lord of the Flies experience. read more

He is the most kind and caring individual ive met in a long time. hes so attentive and you can tell hes an extremely hardworker and he really takes pride in his job!! (he has 2 other jobs as well) He came back multiple times to check on me and my family and made sure my kids had everything we needed. he even brought my son icecream People don't realize that small kind gestures like that can change someomes bad day into a great one in a split second!! Thank you Tony for your kindness! You are definetly a special person!! Keep up the great work!!! read more

This location has been unorganized (not giving our full order) And last night it made several members of my family (and I) very sick with food poisoning... within hours... and all night.. puking and more. read more

Come here very regularly, regularly ask for sliced cheese instead of shredded on my cod filet, they regularly ignore it, which is whatever, but tonight after ordering we waited a good 10 minutes behind someone just to pay, and the guy working the front was very short and snappy when we were ordering. I thought it was because they were close to closing time because it was close to 9 but online says they're open til 10.. anyway, half my pretzel bites were burnt and hard and inedible and the guy who took the order was the same one who brought out our two sundaes and forgot my concrete mixer. I have been on hold right now for 20 minutes just trying to call to see if they can REFUND for something I didn't get. Took the liberty of writing this review while on hold. Ridiculous. Shout out to the girl with the blue hair, she seems like the only competent one who was working tonight. Update : called next day, just spoke to a "Ryan" who couldn't give a shit less about his job if he tried. Not a single apology for the screw up, basically said I had to come back a day after they fucked up my order or they would send me a coupon in the mail in a few days for a free mixer. Horrible customer service. UPDATE : This place has really become A team and F team. Shout out to poor Danny working in the kitchen while her teenage coworkers scramble around not caring. Had a guy at the window not wearing his mask, then the girl who brought our food out wasn't wearing hers so much as over her mouth let alone her nose. As a bonus their grill was down - but the guy told me I couldn't have a FRIED FISH SANDWICH even to spite his manager giving him a list of stuff that could be ordered. Dude literally cut me off when I said "cod filet" to tell me the grill was down, but he couldn't have opened with that before we even ordered? read more

Drive through attendant was chummy/ friendly. This chain is from Wisconsin so everyone at my condo community is crazy about the ice cream sundaes. Even my mom loved her Sundae . I ordered the fish sandwich. I try not to eat fried food. It was fried fish on a nice roll. It was ok. Folks I was with really enjoyed the cheese curds. Next time I will try the ice cream bc that is special to Wisconsin! read more

If I ever partake in fast food, this is where I go! The burgers are always satisfying with lots of toppings. They are made to order and taste like a burger should. I love their fries. Hot & crispy. This Culver's was staffed by the friendliest, most helpful people I've ever encountered in a fast food restaurant. Eager to please and willing to answer questions while waiting on our meal order was refreshing! I could go on and on - especially about the frozen custard. So creamy & fresh tasting. I ordered the flavor of the day strawberry parfait with brownie bites. Need I say more? I only wish all fast food restaurants could be like this! read more

Went through drive thru this evening. Told the person I had never been there before. She was polite and waited for me to be ready to order. When I got to the window I paid and was handed a number tent. I must've looked obviously confused bc she then explained to hang the tent on my car and pull up to the stop sign to wait for my food. This seemed odd since no one else was inside or in the drive thru and there were 2 or 3 employees there at the least. Waited about 15 minutes for the food to come and when it did the fries were not even warm. Surprisingly they didn't taste bad like many fries do when they cool off. The spicy chicken sandwich was good but a little dry. Overall I was very unimpressed with the service, speed, and temperature of food. read more

Service was just horrible. I couldn't believe it from Culver's. Exactly as I read elsewhere. There were a bunch of 'employees' (kids) hanging around in the front. I asked where the tea was. This kid said - quite nonchalantly - we don't have yea anymore. Really. I said that you need to put a sign up as I can't drink carbonated and you just gave me my empty cup to put something in. Really!! Some girl asked me what the problem was. I told her. She said she would bring some tea to my table. Nope. I waited awhile and then went to the front. There they were, hanging around. This Culver's has become HORRIBLE. read more

We don't have Culver's out in California but I lived in Chicago for a couple of years and I absolutely love Culver's buttermilk burgers! Came here as soon as I landed in Sarasota and the burger taste exactly the way I remember! I'm not big on other fast food burgers but this one truly is amazing! read more

I'm outside waitinf in the car for my daughter's food. We are at 48 mins and they are still inside, it's a to go order.

Food pretty good. Timely. Clean. But the Star of the show is KIMBERLY! She really was holding the place together. She is kind and soft spoken with a charming smile but she was definitely in charge. Attention Culver's: keep this valuable employee and treat her well. read more

Hubby and I got milkshakes today. Walker took care of us and was friendly and fun. The shakes were delicious as always, but his service made this experience stand out. As we left , hubby said that if he still had a food service business, Walker would be working for him! read more

Lunch time quick meals can be tricky and I find that the chicken at Culvers is totally delicious. The burgers tend to be greasier than I like, so I stay away from them. The regular staff here, Kate, is exceptional. The fries are so good and the small is really a generous portion for one. Dining inside tends to be loud so not the best for a reading lunch. However, they do have outside tables and those are perfect on a cool day. The salads are also fresh. The best thing here is the desserts. The custard of the day is always a wonderful way to end a quick meal. read more

Culvers is culvers pretty much anywhere you go so this review is not on the custard, which is excellent. This review is for the service. We went at like 7:30 on a Tuesday evening just to get some ice cream and the woman behind the counter was so rude to us and to her fellow employees. The custard was on point, the service was not. read more

Professional crew/team. Couple guys r exceptional young people. Food consistently good.

Tasty My lunch visit today went very well. I got a welcome to Culver's from a passing employee as I studied the menu and had an attentive order taker when I had decided on my lunch, a Culver's Deluxe and an order of their Wisconsin Cheese Curds. The way it works, at least for dining in, is you place your order and they give you a number to place on your table. Your food is delivered to you, in my case in under 5 minutes. Their food offerings are more than just fast food fare and it includes custards. My Culver's Deluxe was very good. The two thin patties of beef were well cooked, and combined with a good cheese and fresh toppings, made for a tasty burger. The cheese curds are easy to eat. read more

Culver's across the country are pretty identical like any fast food chain. I really enjoy their food at all locations. The butter burgers are tasty and the fries are hot and crispy. Love the Wisconsin cheese curds. To top it off, the custard for dessert is always delicious and there is a new specialty flavor everyday. Staff is friendly and prices are reasonable. Great for the kids read more

First time at Culver's. Not sure if this is a new one but looks like it, it was just too clean and too nice. The service is very friendly and the employees' uniforms looked really clean. It was lunchtime so it was rather busy but they also have drive thru if you can't eat in. When you order, they'll give you a number and someone will bring your food out. The drinks are self-serve and it's Pepsi products. Just make sure to empty your trays in the trash when you're done. I also used the restroom here, and was impressed that it was so clean and smelled clean. Their sign inside says it all. As for the food, it was good, greasy good, but maybe a bit too greasy and runny (my burger). I liked the fries and although I liked my mushroom Swiss burger, I'm not sure I would order again since it was so messy. The place itself is definitely above McDonald's standards but below a Red Robbin. They do have lots of items to choose from so that's a plus. I did ask out of curiosity (for my daughter) since there's a new Culver's in Gainesville, if they had any vegan items? They don't, only a veggie burger with onion rings. Since it's probably cooked all in the same grease it can't be vegan and the batter probably isn't either. But then again, there aren't any fast food places with vegan items. Maybe 10 years from now they'll be one. read more

Food is good. Service is very slow. We waited fire 30 mins for a concert and a chocolate malt.

I have no idea how this place is still in business. Worst service in Sarasota. The employees seem lost. Walked in at 8:45 tonight to order some food to-go. Was asked what we'd like then someone from the back yelled "the dining room is closed". Told them we just wanted to order to-go. We were told we'd have to leave and get in line outside. read more

Terrible service. Waited 5 minutes to order and then 15 for 3 ice cream cones. There was one other person in the restaurant. Some serious training or firing needs to occur here! read more
