We got off the ship early in Grand Cayman with all the shops closed until 9. Outdoor seating with some tables inside to enjoy your food. Clean restaurant with everything being made to order. Up front they had a pastry case one item being the sausage roll. Not big but full of flavor that I had to order another. Was told if they ran out it would be another 25 minutes to make them. Waffle combo's were all amazing and we added some of the homemade whip cream to the order. Do not forget to do this! All the food we had was delicious with some great people working at this restaurant. This is a must when hitting Grand Cayman.

Decided to check out Waffle Monkey on a whim and was very much satisfied. Just as its name suggests, their focus is their themed Belgian waffles. In addition to a classic Belgian waffle, they also offer a large number of fun sweet and savory options. I went with their churro (cinnamon-sugar, melted butter, and chocolate sauce), and my husband ordered apple pie (apple pie filling, cinnamon-sugar, and whipped cream). The waffles were great. They were warm and chewy on the outside with a slight crisp on the exterior. I appreciated that the toppings were all served on the side, as it made for a customizable experience. My husband also had their homemade sausage roll made with real puff pastry, which he said was amazing. What I also appreciated are the large number of side options. Any waffle can be enhanced with fresh fruit, spreads, proteins, or even a scoop of ice cream. Lastly, Waffle Monkey's servers are kind and efficient. Would recommend a stop here if craving a nice, fluffy Belgian.

The churro waffles! DELICIOUS.

All around just incredible food. Fluffy, delicious waffles in the most unique flavors and combos. Sweet, savory, sandwiches, and even a full English breakfast are on this menu. Restaurant is intimate and well decorated, so be sure to take advantage of the space outside. One of the best breakfast spots in downtown Sarasota!!!! Service is always friendly as well. :)

Choice of beverages including fresh coffee, lattes, etc

Been here several times since they have opened. The owner and staff are good people. Friendly and professional. The food is solid Parking is an issue, but it's Sarasota so what's new there?

We really enjoyed this cute restaurant. It was comfortable and airy with lots of seats. We were greeted by a friendly server and she was also assisted by a kind and hospitable gentleman. I started out with a vanilla latte which was very tasty! Then I ordered the Salty Pig waffle which included yummy bacon cooked just the way I like it, slightly crisp but not all around hard. It was excellent. My husband had a strawberry waffle with whipped cream. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and bright atmosphere here and look forward to coming back.

Great experience at Waffle Monkey. Came with a large group after Thanksgiving and was well taken care of. Food was excellent as usual too!

Awesome vibes!

Wow! An amazing NEW family-owned waffle and breakfast restaurant in Sarasota! If you want fresh, delicious waffles--this is the place! I just had the waffles and bacon! A special shout out to all my vegan and gluten-free friends, in addition to regular waffles, they have DELICIOUS GLUTEN-FREE and vegan waffles too! We met the owner (he and his wife started the restaurant) and we learned that they worked for months to craft the perfect recipe!

We go here almost every time we visit Sarasota, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh,…read moregood quality, healthy, flavorful and well cooked. This time, we had the shakshuka and the kale salad. We also had a warm Immune Booster Elixir. It was busy but service was still timely.

The dinner menu features four salads, each priced between $17 and $19, with optional add-ons: fish for $11, avocado for $4, or grilled chicken for $6. Entrées range from a vegan beetroot risotto to a wagyu burger, priced between $19 and $28. I ordered the Baja burrito--filled with avocado, red cabbage, carrot, cashew cheese, and wrapped in a massaged collard green burrito. It was tasty, but it's definitely a dish best appreciated by vegans who truly enjoy collard greens. My husband chose the goat cheese salad, a mix of organic greens, goat cheese mousse, pickled shallots, candied pecans, preserved grapes, house-made crackers, mustard pearls, and maple vinaigrette, also $18. The goat cheese was extremely creamy and paired beautifully with the light, airy toasted pieces served alongside. It made for the perfect light entrée. For dessert, he had the pumpkin chia pudding--creamy, lightly spiced, and satisfying without being heavy--so we ended the night feeling perfectly content, not overly full. There was a gentleman playing the saxophone just outside the door, a bit hard to carry on a conversation at times but very adorable when he played happy birthday for a little boy who clapped for joy. Very heartwarming moment. Go and enjoy a very healthy dinner.

Yesterday I ordered takeout and the experience left a lot to be desired. I arrived about 10 minutes after the quoted pickup time. My food was not in the takeout pickup area, so I did head to the counter. There were three staff members visible behind the front counter, one who was actively working and two, Brooke and Kari, who were talking to each other and some friends of theirs by the counter. The conversation was not work appropriate. While Brooke saw me, she was slow to approach the counter and offer assistance. When I advised I was picking something up she said it was likely being finished up, but she didn't seem to actually check at all. During this whole interaction, I could see a salad on the counter that I assumed, correctly would be mine. It sat waiting to be bagged for several minutes. This was ultimately packaged by a gentleman who appeared to be a manager who was on the phone all the time. The two girls who had been chatting with each other also spent substantial time talking with him. As he was "multitasking" this seemed to make the packaging take forever. When he bagged it he just set it on a side counter for another employee to take over to the pickup area, ignoring context clues that it might be for the sole person waiting nearby. It was just not an experience I expect from a Pura Vida, which is a pricier fast casual restaurant. As a customer, I felt ignored and not valued.
