In Season, Saturday, March 21, 2026 - Two for take out lunch for the beach…read more My wife has been bragging about these folks for months so we thought to stop in and see how they are for a few sandwiches?! VERY GOOD is the short answer! My wife got the Polo Toscano - grilled chicken on an awesome sourdough bread that I believe comes in from New Jersey? She decided to take a little bite in their roomy parking lot!!!! AND the result was we did not make it over KMI/Hatchett Creek Bridge heading to Nokomis Beach..... I got the "stump"/end of the bread with a little bit of chicken / cheese etc. So will have to go by her assessment. 9/10 I got the Lukie - portabella, asparagus, zucchini, roasted red pepper cheese (provolone and they let me try a piece before they made the sandwich!!! WOW that is no Dietz & Watson or Publix brand cheese - right out of the Italian market in NY or Philly!!) They put balsamic and oil on and the veggies were sauté etc. And there in was the only issue. Flavor and ALL ingredients were great....... but the sourdough bread was a soggy sponge by the time I cracked it open on the beach about 30 minutes later. The vinegar, the liquids from the sauté, the oils and etc. I WILL be going back for this exact thing next time, BUT will get it "dry" or dressing on the side. I picked it apart and threw well over 1/2 the roll in the trash. 5/10 Really good first visit for me and EASY PEASY fix so check back on my update...... OR go there yourself and find out how great they are! I spoke to a few friends and the overwhelming feedback was very good food and selection....but prices are a bit high for a deli/takeout.

It was a little hard to find in a strip mall, but look for the sign advertising Reuben sandwiches beside an ice cream shop. We were warmly greeted as we came in and told to see it ourselves. We soon had water and placed our orders. We both ordered the special of the day: any hamburger and a side for $10. We both got Patty melts - - I had fries and hubby had onion rings. I asked for my burger to be medium well which it was and hubby wanted, medium rare but it was a little more done than that. There weren't many onion rings, but they were very tasty. The fries were good as well. We took home almost a full burger. It's a nice little diner and you get what you expect you would at an establishment like this.

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.

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.
