Caesar salad with chicken. The chicken was ok, the Caesar dressing was tasteless. Also had shrimp quesadilla. Too much tasteless cheese. No spice at all. So, the quality of the food this evening was low. Also the Yelp waitlist or whatever was confusing and not much value. Will we return? Probably not.

GET A PARKING SPOT in the gravel lot so my wife could hobble in with her bone on bone knee (getting 'fixed any day now) Service was awesome, hostess fantastic, our server was conversational and fantastic, and the beverages/drinks (the draw for my wife) were generous and tasty as usual. I am a little disappointed at the sides serving "cup" (black beans, yellow rice, and edamame) while the online menus does not post prices they are a little bit more expensive now this year and looking at my pictures from the past a little more diminutive? I do see I substituted and they made up a BEAN taco for me one time so maybe I will switch back to that creation.

We decided to stop and eat at Anita's on the way home from Nokomis beach. The servers were friendly…read moreand attentive, but the food was just average tasting. My patty melt lacked seasoning and flavor, but the beer battered fries were crisp and tasty. The country fried steak was okay, the gravy was pretty tasty and the home fries indeed looked home made. The inside is designed to be like a nostalgic dinner. It was comfortable and clean.

The food was top notch with large portions well worth the very reasonable price. The owners are from Brooklyn, NY so they clearly know quality Italian food. Leave room for desserts-displayed by counter. Highly recommended.

My friend had chicken piccata which she loved. Another friend had the sausage peppers sub, again huge and very good. The pasta fagiole soup was the best I ever had and I order it a lot everywhere. I asked for a little bowl so my friend could try it and they gave her a small bowl of it. It was the best she has ever had also. Another friend had the minestrone, it was so good she took one home. My eggplant rollatini was very good, The only criticism would be thicker eggplant slices and more seasoning. If you love sweets.... Lookout because their showcase of sweets is amazing. Thank you for wonderful food and service because we had a great time and will be back! P.s. please work on the acoustics... it's so noisy that I couldn't hear conversations.

Favorites: lamb chop, Adana kebab, gyro, piyaz white bean salad, sigara borek, rice pudding. In sum, the tastiest Middle East dishes we've enjoyed in the Sarasota area.

The staff in the ballroom were working hard, but there weren't enough of them. Drink refills were slow, and follow up after food arrived was almost non-existent. The ballroom is ok if you into relatively loud music - karaoke was that night, but it was cold there. The seating around the outside of the ballroom is also not ideal - the tables are situated too far from the wall benches, and it is not comfortable to eat that way. I'd sit in the restaurant next time. Hopefully with time, they'll get these things straightened out.

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.

One of the waitstaff recognized me. So nice! I highly recommend visiting here!

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.
