We recently discovered this restaurant and are so glad we did. The service was amazing and the food was great. What really impressed me was a wash station that was right inside the entrance. No need to visit the restroom if all you need to do is wash up before your meal. My husband and I split the 5 Crispy Tenders and Fries meal. The tenders were huge and it was plenty of food for the two of us. Everything was perfect. We will be back. read more

Decided to stop by for a quick bite before heading to the airport! You order from the self service kiosk and then they call your name when the food is ready. It took some time as the food was cooked to order ... Overall, the chicken sandwich was okay. The fries were way too salty. Overall, it was okay. read more

Skip this location. We came here after a Sunday beach day. We came with 4 kids. The kids meals consisted of the usual 2 tenders but literally only 5 fries each. One child got 6 because hers were tiny. This meal was not worth the cost at all. They said that's usual but this isn't the usual in our town where we normally get pdq. read more

Well they redeemed themselves! I received a $10 birthday coupon, so we decided to give them another chance. The tenders were smaller but we're still delicious. Service was great and they did a good job of cleaning the tables after people left. Bath' soda now has a cream soda along with their root beer. Haven't had a cream soda in along time, it was pretty good. read more

2nd year coming back here and I can't believe I'm saying this, but the food is better than chick fil a and I'm all for chick fil a, like I don't eat any fast food other than chick fil a. The fries at PDQ are definitely better, perfectly crisp. All the sandwiches definitely have a bigger piece of chicken as well. We tried the Jacked spicy, Honey Chicken, and the crispy deluxe. This year, they brought back the Zucchini Fries and I'm so happy I got a chance to try them. So worth it! Service is quick, and I like that they have the Coca Cola freestyle machines so you have more fountain drink options. Outdoor seating always perfect for the summer. read more

I do like that they have a lot of options from sandwiches, salads, tenders/nuggets, etc. they don't just have a chicken sandwich or a salad but several options of each. They also have some unique things like zucchini fries. Overall a good spot, especially love the convenience of drive thru for working days. read more

I took my little guy to this location for the first time yesterday. The staff was friendly and welcoming. They helped us understand the menu as we were first timers. The chicken tenders were some of the best we've ever had, and highly approved by a five-year-old. The fries were also awesome. They have several options for sauces, but I wasn't a fan of either of the two I tried (PDQ sauce and ranch). I'm more of a purist, and I felt like the sauces of scared the taste of the chicken. It is definitely a compliment that the chicken is so good that no sauce is needed! We loved our meal and we will be back. read more

In a recent visit, I bit into a chicken sandwich that seemed to have a spongey and strange texture. After taking another bite, I realized that the chicken was raw inside! I discarded the sandwich and told a staff member. I was provided with a new sandwich, which I could not eat after losing my appetite. Later that evening I began to have the classic symptoms of food poisoning. It took about a day to feel better. Generally, I like PDQ, but this experience has caused me to return to Chick fil-A. I reported this via the website a few weeks ago, but received no response. read more

PDQ started out with an expansive menu that included lots of healthy bowls, turkey sandwiches that reminded you of thanksgiving, different fries, tatchos (loaded tots) and zucchini fries. All of the amazing things have been slowly but surely eliminated as this brand attempts to tremendously take off in a direction similar to chick fil a. In fact, their menu is chick fil a, down to the waffle fries. It's not bad food. If you're looking for chick fil a without the super pleasurable service, accept no substitute. read more

A good lunch stop I made a quick stop for lunch today. My order taker was way cheerful and certainly brightened my visit. They offered a new sandwich, a 4 River Smokehouse Sandwich, which looked very good in the advertising photos, so I gave it a try. By the time I managed to get my drink, my food was ready. The sandwich was very good. It had a large piece of chicken, quite thick at one end, and a sweet sauce. The thin cut fries were excellent. Aside from one spot kind of blocked off, the restaurant was clean and appeared to be well maintained. They have a drive thru and while there was no line to order at the counter, the place was a little busy. For those Pokemon inclined, there is a Pokemon gym at the restaurant, so you can battle away as you enjoy some good food. read more

I've driven by this place for years and always wanted to stop in and finally I did -- and it was worth the trip. I now understand that their specialty is chicken tenders -- and the menu had quite a variety of choices. I was looking for a bit healthier so I ordered a chicken caesar salad -- and the chic on the salad was delish! Along with a diet coke it was under $10. If I was on the Tamiami trail shopping again, i would stop here -- before the Sweet Tomatoes or even perhaps as an alternative to the soup and salad at Olive Garden (both nearby). I'd also say the place must be good as there was a table of nurses, a table of 6 Sarasota County sherrifs, and an ambulance crew. I felt pretty safe and thought having them all there was a pretty good endorsement. Give it a try! read more

I randomly searched for quick bites by the beach and PDQ did not disappoint! It is a very nice fast food restaurant that serves chicken. I had the grilled chicken salad with zucchini fries and my boyfriend had nuggets and a chicken sandwich with regular fries. Everything was delicious! The chicken was very tender and juicy and I loved the blueberry-ginger dressing on my salad. Also, I am a sauce aficionado and PDQ has an assortment of homemade sauces and they were awesome. I personally think that Chick-Fil-A is a tad better but PDQ was great and about a 15 minute drive from the beach. read more

It's on a nice corner spot in the landings and has both indoor and outdoor seating. Food was so nice looking that we jumped right in and forgot to take pics. Service was good but not great. Was glad they have a QR code on the table. We were able pay that way so did not have to wait for the bill.

The quality of the chicken breast is good, but cut slightly too thin for 'Chicken Tenders". The…read moresauce that all flavors come in is very sweet and sticky, not like a typical hot chicken spot with a dry rub, which I prefer. If this place would limit that sweetness to the sauce to only one flavor on the menu, and make the other sauces less sweet/more of a dry rub this spot would be much better. Unfortunately because the chicken has a lot of sugar you can taste in all flavors, I will not be returning. If you like Korean style stuff, this place might be for you.

The chicken is fantastic. The mild sauce is the best. There is a 10 minute wait for the chicken…read morebut it is worth it.

What a disappointing experience. It's sad because the food was actually pretty good. Ordered online…read morepicked up order the receipt was significantly lower than what we paid. When I called and questioned it said because I ordered through doordash. The online ordering says no charge orders through doordash. As you can see there's a significant difference between doordash and picking up in person. I am upset because know where does it tell you that there's a charge it actually says no charge but you can see by the receipt that they charged me way more. If you value honesty with a business go somewhere else. Please look at the photos it says no charge then you can see what they charged us and what the actual charge was. This was an in-person pick up. When I called and questioned it they said oh it's because you ordered through doordash. Beware scammers

This was my first chance to stop in. I'm familiar with Potbelly Sandwich Shops and with a memory…read morerefresh from looking at their website, I knew I wanted their sandwich called A Wreck. It is a many meats and other toppings sandwich. I got it with "The Works", a set of toppings listed on the wall. This list includes hot peppers, I think I should exclude them next time. My sandwich was very good, toasted, and messy. Really good. Potbelly is an order at the counter and they make your sandwich to order, and there are tables inside if you want to stay to eat. The colorful décor is general and also Sarasota specific. The staff was fine, not chatty but got the sandwich made properly. No complaints.

Their sandwiches are amazing and delicious! The first time I experienced Potbelly was at the Tampa…read moreInternational Airport last fall. It was so good! I was so excited and happy to try the one in Sarasota across from Sarasota Memorial Hospital. It did not disappoint! Got the Avo Turkey! The toasting was perfection! And the amount of avocado was great. Then last week I worked with manager Marshall to order 4 boxes of sandwiches for the Sarasota High School Sailors Baseball varsity team for a pre away game meal. He gave us a deal because we were ordering so many sandwiches and our Boosters is a non-profit supporting youth baseball. The sandwiches were nearly packaged and all well labeled! They did such a great job! We will definitely be ordering from them again and will tell the other high school sports teams to order from Marshall at Potbelly!

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.
