The Cottage in Siesta Key, Sarasota, is definitely worth a visit!…read more The food was absolutely delicious! We ordered the mussels, which came in a flavorful, buttery broth with toasted garlic bread that was perfect for dipping. The sushi was beautifully presented, loaded with flavor, and just as good as it looked! I personally would skip the sushi roll I'm from California and there wasn't any spectacular about it! The cocktails were refreshing, the presentation was on point, and the tropical atmosphere made the entire experience even better. Such a cute spot with great vibes, perfect for a night out! If you're visiting Siesta Key, I definitely recommend adding The Cottage to your list.

We booked this place via OpenTable since it received great reviews. We ended up parking next door…read moresince parking was a bit hard to navigate. The parking place had ample parking where you needed a mobile app to pay for your parking. There was a larger souvenir store there if you needed to kill time before your seating. Once it was our time for our dinner reservations, we were greeted and seated at our table. Our waitress was a bit sarcastic or had a witty comments that didn't sit well with my kids. When ordering our foods, the kids asked what type of drinks they had since it was not listed on the menu. She said Coke but didn't elaborate that they had Coke products. Since she said Coke so fast our daughter didn't hear the response and asked her the question again where she just said that's a great question and ignored her and moved on. Food wise - we had the Peruvian ceviche, Peruvian chicken, I think I had a special grouper dish. The food was good. We were able to eat everything and the kids enjoyed their kids burger meals. Outside of the waitress comments, the place placed nice modern music to listen to and had the basketballs games playing on the tv at the bar.

The steak was excellent, and my daughter absolutely loved her chicken. Overall, a fantastic experience. Definitely recommend if you're in Sarasota.

Our server Casey was one of the best in the biz - he made the experience so great! We felt like we were besties with him. We shared the shrimp as an appetizer and ate it alarmingly fast. Then for entrees, my darling got the Chicken Milanese (Casey gave the hot tip to do mashed potatoes as a side and that was a crucial and worthwhile decision) and I got two apps as my entree, the Brussels sprouts and the Tuna tataki. The tuna is something I will be thinking about for years to come. We polished it all off by sharing a deliiiiightful key lime pie, a 10/10 choice. All the employees at Libby's are top tier and so kind, and we couldn't stop talking about our dinner here for the rest of our time in Sarasota. Can't wait to come back :)

We specifically came expecting a lunch experience based on their advertising and were frustrated to discover that wasn't the case. There's a big difference between serving lunch and serving brunch with a few lunch items sprinkled in. Restaurants should be transparent about what they actually offer so customers can make informed decisions before visiting. If you're looking for a true lunch menu on the weekend, this may not be the place for you.

What an absolute gem of a restaurant. The ambiance is artsy, whimsical, fun--and it all just works…read more Really well. Our server, Juliana, provided absolute perfection. She was bright, effervescent, eager to please, extremely knowledgeable about every drink and food item on the menu, always present when needed but never hovering. She has perfected her craft and it made for a wonderful experience. The menu is written with flair and verve, and every offering seems irresistible. We wanted to try everything, but of course couldn't, so we made do with a couple of their signature cocktails (wonderful), a flatbread appetizer (also wonderful) and the very delicious meat loaf and the gemelli pasta entrees. I 10 out of 10 in every respect. We were quite concerned that we were the only patrons in the restaurant during our entire meal. It was early on a Tuesday evening in low season, but still. I hope more folks discover Wink Wink as it would be a shame to lose such a treasure. I would think they might want to consider offering a happy hour to boost things a bit. On the other hand, they could be doing very well and we just hit an off night. Go. Try it. The whole experience will be very entertaining with the art and whimsy of the decor and the menu. Great vibes. and the service and food were wonderful.

The tickets were $15.50pp for an evening film, so higher than a standard theater, but not by much. Where they really make their money is the concessions. My husband and I decided to have dinner there, and he ordered the cheesesteak with truffle fries and a Sprite, and I ordered the sliders with regular fries and a root beer. The facility automatically adds a 19% gratuity charge to the bill, and our total came to $71.00. Even I was slightly shocked at the price, since we were at a movie theater The service and servers were great. The sodas do have free refills, but unlike other boujee theaters, there isn't a call button to use at this one. Overall, it was a fun evening. We spent $100 for a date night, and I suppose that isn't too unusual anymore. The theater and bathrooms were clean, all employees seemed kind and we enjoyed the movie.

Severe Mold smell, wound up have asthma attack after being there for 3 hours. Dealing with mold sickness. Food was horrible! Had a chicken BLT Bun was hard as a rock, chicken was rubbery and un edible because they used a microwave to heat up food. My husband ordered a steak frites $42.99. Meat was terrible . Can't say all the food was all bad, popcorn, Fries and cake was good, and so was the water & beer & Margarita. The place is falling apart. The help had no idea what they are doing , giving people the wrong food and drinks. Placing them on your tray and then taking them back to give to the correct customer. Cost was approximately $160 per couple, waste of money. This place used to be an awesome experience a few years back, but now it's falling apart and the incompetence is unbelievable. If you don't mind mold and mediocre food this place is for you. At this point I will go out to dinner somewhere else like Season 52 and then go to different movie theatre afterward. I used to love this place. Sad this place went down hill. I have never been so disappointed :-( If they ever decide to clean it up and get better food I might go back.

Going to Canvas Cafe is always a treat. The first time we went there it was a bit of an accident…read moreand we hear a rumor and decided to drop in. The place is supper small so it is still amazing to me we got a table. So make reservations! But ever since then we've had some pretty amazing dinners and discovered great wine at the Canvas Cafe. The last time I went, a couple of weeks ago, I had the lamb. It was perfectly cooked, earthy and beautiful. We also had the scallops which were such a different thing, so light and full of the ocean, you didn't want to share or trade bites between dishes because both were so good but so different. A long time favorite here is the gazpacho. This time we didn't have that and tried the goat cheese with tomato marmalade and one of the arugula salad creations. Both good, but the marmalade was a bit sweet. but loved how they caramelized the goat cheese. Don't be afraid to ask about a wine you have not heard of and listen to what they recommend. I have not gone wrong yet doing this at Canvas and have discovered some very nice things this way. Get something different here than your usual favorites. One of the things I love about this place is the menu changes about every 3-4 months and they are always trying out new wine. A good place to experience some creative and well done food. Not everything is a hit out of the ball park, but I've had some very memorable meals at Canvas. Service is always very good and I have never felt rushed out. If I want to sit and enjoy the wine, they don't try to run you off to turn over the table. Very relaxing and a nice place to slow down. You owe it to yourself to call them, make a reservation and enjoy sitting on their deck before it is too hot to eat outside. You won't be sorry.
