I started with the avocado sliders, which were so flavorful! And, as always, I got my favorite Thai chicken salad. The rice noodles that top it give it that extra kick. The portion is always huge. I took some with me. There is inside and outside seating. They have some outside tables under trees, which keep it tolerable even on a hot day. I sat at the bar and chatted up the bartender. One of the waitstaff recognized me. So nice! I highly recommend visiting here!

I usually go out to dinner focused on good food and service, not necessarily health, but this place…read moredelivers all three. Everything is all-natural and organic, which really sets it apart. It's also located in the oldest building along US 41 between Venice and Tampa, built in 1923 and once home to the first bank and post office in Sarasota County. Definitely a fun bit of history you don't expect with your meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with shaded outdoor seating and a cozy, bright indoor dining room. While they offer plenty of gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options, I went for the classic corned beef Reuben on marble rye with a side of organic, gluten-free mac and cheese. Both were excellent, and the clear dietary labels on the menu were a nice touch. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you're looking for great food with healthy options.

She was very busy and I don't blame her, but our drinks were disgusting. Like throw away in the garbage after one sip disgusting. The flavor was sour and the boba was soggy. We also paid extra for blended and they all came out just over ice. Would not recommend or go back.

The inside was very clean and quiet nothing much going on except a few cars in the drive-thru. The staff was very nice & got done with My order pretty quickly and I was on my way. When I got to the car, I tried my drink and it had a strong burnt flavor. It's probably time to clean the machines. I haven't tasted something like that in a while and it wasn't pleasant the overall sweetness was fine but couldn't get over that burnt coffee taste.

It's like they have about 10 flavors available so it's not like you have that many testers you would want, but only One is rude. Then the cup is tiny for one serving and it's $5. They do not split flavors either. If you want 2 flavors split there an up charge for it. It is nice they have small tables and chairs outside to enjoy the miniature cup of gelato. Now I understand why it's dead inside and they are literally next door to a bustling Italian restaurant. Definitely much better options in the area that are more welcoming and kind to customers.
