Decided to try out O'Bricks for lunch with my adult children. We ate outside on a perfect Florida…read morespring day. We asked if there was bread, and they have a complementary bread and pesto that was excellent. We each chose something different so we could try four different meals. The fish tacos were great! Great flavor and huge piece of fresh fish. The green beans are an excellent side choice. The grilled salmon was also excellent. The key lime aioli was sweet, but delicious. The crab cake was not deep fried and crispy, but full of large pieces of crab. The homemade potato chips and fries were great. I did prefer the fries. They also have gluten free buns for the burgers. Service was also excellent.

Went for a family dinner and had a great time…read more Nice bar/restaurant, great for families, groups, and happy hour. Great menu for both dinner and smaller bites - perfect for any occasion. I had the grouper with mashed potatoes and green beans and it was amazing! The fish was fresh and cooked perfectly, very firm.. flavorful.. and flaky. Their wine selection was VERY good... a wide variety to select from: California, Argentina, France, Germany, Italy - I was very impressed. Staff were all very nice and welcoming which also helped with the experience. Parking is a little tricky.. we did street parking - I am not sure if there are parking garages/lots nearby.. but we went with metered street parking. Would I go back? Yes, for sure!

Went to McGrath's for dinner. Looks like it got an update. Last time I went it was an Irish pub…read morestyle and Irish food menu but now it's different. I like the new menu options. On Wednesday's they have a two meal day for $30 which includes two dinners and a soup or salad per person. I had the lemon butter chicken with mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was delicious! Very flavorful! My husband had the chicken parm. It was a large portion and tasty. Not quite authentic Italian but still good. Our friend had the shirt rib grilled cheese and the tomato soup. Also delicious! Next time I am interested in trying the chicken rice bowl.

Stopped in McGrath's for an early dinner and had a great experience from start to finish. We were…read moreseated promptly, and our server was quick to take our drink orders, providing attentive and friendly service throughout the meal. I ordered their triple-patty smashed burger, which was seasoned perfectly, with melted cheese oozing over each juicy layer--a truly delicious burger. To balance it out, I also had the maple pecan house salad, a fresh mix of lettuce, candied pecans, cranberries, goat cheese, and crisp Granny Smith apples, all tossed in a flavorful maple vinaigrette. Every bite was a perfect blend of sweet, tangy, and savory. From the service to the food, everything was spot on. A great spot for a satisfying meal--I'll definitely be back!

From the moment you walk in the door you are met with Irish-American hospitality. We dropped by on…read moreour way to Bean Beach and saw the orange and white Freckled Fin sign and were drawn by the possibility of Kilkenny (my favorite beer - if you don't know) and were met with high vaulted ceilings and an amazing cross- ventilation breeze and Chris the most charismatic bartender, I have ever meet. He loves music, especially hard rock, just ask him about it. The food menu looks amazing including poutine (if you don't know, ask somebody, I can't teach you everything on this review). We ordered the Irish Dip, just like you think, house-made corned beef topped with Swiss, grilled onions and red ale au jus dipping sauce. Absolutely delicious, the bread was fresh the sandwich was enough of everything and the au jus was le creme on the top. If you feel like chicken try their house make potato chips encrusted chicken tenders with omg good tater tots. All the food looks amazing. Drop by this summer and tell Chris the bartenders that Gigi sent you! You won't regret it!!! See the pictures.

Awesome neighborhood pub! They opened for the USA men's hockey game and it was packed at 8 am that…read moreSunday! Great drinks and food. Our bartender, Jordyn, was the BEST. She was our bartender on several occasions and made the best cocktails, and had the nicest personality! Can't wait to return!

Friday, January 16, 2026 - Two for a burger bite. Not before the FST show…read more (GOSUB to the **** for the meat/burger of the review ((smile)) ) I have reviewed about 30 restaurants in and around Sarasota since 2021 when we moved down permanently and are members of the FST. On this Friday night, nothing was going right. My wife was delayed at school etc. So then a delayed departure from Venice, a false stop at Mad Moe's for a burger in Osprey (PACKED) and then a direct shot and parking across from FST we hope for a quick burger or something at the bar or restaurant at FST? But it was PACKED and they weren't serving any more???? We threw our tickets in the trash because now we could not make it back in time, (( frown :-( )) So a walk to Main Street to see if Patrick's or anybody might have room for two? NOPE. and we were walking along and THERE WAS BREWSTER's GASTROPUB!!!!!!!!!! For some reason I have 128 restaurants on my Sarasota Favorites list and Brewster's was not on it? I checked them on as I entered??? Looked VERY full at the bar, and most tables were full but it looked like we had a shot...... and there was a four top high-top!!!!!!! WIDE OPEN!! I think the no table service might be the delineator. We weren't looking for a sit down "dining" and full service gig. Nor did we need the overhead and pomp and circumstance of a host/hostess, army of bus staff, a waitstaff and being waited on with drinks and water and etc? ******** We came to EAT GOOD SIMPLE FOOD and have FUN. **** And that's what we did!!! "Todd" at the bar was friendly and fantastic. All the bartenders and staff were helpful and friendly. The "security guy" when he saw me at the bar for about 20 seconds helped me get some ketchup. Zone defense and team effort!!!! I got the signature Brew Burger and a side of Street Corn and had an endless glass of water w/ lemon I think I had Todd fill about 5 times. My wife and I bantered about what the Street Corn would be and we were happily surprised with the authentic Mexican Street Corn (elotes?) on the cob with a stick and a delightful creamy Chile, garlic, and Cotija cheese sauce I think. (problem is we gobble them up before we could figure out the exact sauce composition here. BUT it was very tasty. 10/10 The burger (for this adult usually nutritarian plant-based eater) was EXACTLY what I had hoped for. A wonderfully fresh an warm brioche bun, fantastic angus burger, cheddar and a "secret sauce" . I got lettuce onion and pickles which are standard...... this was VERY VERY VERY tasty. only quip is I will opt for sauce on the side and its was a little too much sauce. This was mega and uber better than some greasy Five Guys or Smashburger or any of that stuff. 10/10 My wife got the Shroom & Swiss Burger that had a wonderful portobello mushroom on it nicely cooked, terrific angus burger properly cooked exactly as we ordered it, she loved the blue cheese perfect amount, She also felt a bit TOO much of the secret sauce, but its pretty tasty so not a catastrophe. This was also an AWESOME burger!! 10/10 The sweet potato fries were not crazy greasy and perfectly crisp but not crunchy for fries - good, cross-cut and obviously bulk bag. Cut or sliced would be nicer but of course not expected, its a side. 7/10 The place is clean and glassware and silverware perfectly clean. The counter/bar service is fantastic. I had to make a few trips for ketchup and place ware and etc but hey when your wife gets one of the better vodka cranberry w/lemon and club in a large tumble for $9 instead of $15 or $16 for a 6 oz martini glass with 4 oz of watery drink........ its a home run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With all the TVs and sports that is probably the summary of my review. Brewster's Gastropub is a Grand Slam for food and service......and especially burgers!!! Bravo Zulu.

Stopped here after traveling to the Ringling museum and their chicken sandwich was a 10/10. Great…read morechill vibes and good beer!
