Everything arrived super fast and with amazing quality. Highly recommended!“

Whether you are local or visiting Sarasota you definitely want to make sure you stop and enjoy some of their excellent offerings.“

“It was a lovely night. A tour of the museum followed by dinner. Oyster appetizer was excellent. Salad was generous with lobster and avocado. Lamb chops encrusted in pistachio with vegetables was also excellent. Dessert the best chocolate mousse I have ever had. Everything was perfect and the private tour of the museum by the director was enjoyable.“

“It was my first time trying this location and it was great! Hot food and the manager gave me a random act of kindness. I went back in line for a brownie and although there was only 1 person in front of me at the register the manager served me the brownie free of charge. I know it's not realistic to give out free food all the time but it honestly made it day.“

“if as a poor European you're visiting the us its hard to find the good food given the abundance of fast food which is too greasy, too salty or way too sugary.here at the selby cafe we found excellent sandwiches. we had a salad and a sandwich with a teatrue its pricey, but its good taste you get for it

“From Roger’s energetic greeting, to Tara’s enthusiastic attention to detail and service, it was a great experience! This place is immaculate (thank Anthony who scrubs booths and tables like an operating room) and happy. Great food and generous portions which equals a good value. The pancakes are a meal by themselves! We eat out every day and this is a wonderful place for breakfast/lunch. Check it out!“

“The go to spot for breakfast is in downtown Sarasota“

“Muy buenooooo Excelente atención“

“Lunch and service consistently excellent. The place is small and no frills but deli sandwiches are excellent. Noodle salad and potato salad are great sides. They have daily specials. I see lots of people order soup. They run a friendly and efficient lunch spot. A hidden gem. Love to pick up and take to picnic by the water.“

“I can’t hear just for my son to have an interview and I ended up sitting down and eating. The food was amazing. I never ate here before customer service was great. The atmosphere was relaxing kind of because I was there at the end of the day and even though I came in late, the food taste fresh and the hostess was very kind and was my server also and she was very kind even though I was there late the cooks seemed to not mind because the food was definitely fresh“

“Love First Watch!! I never know what I'm going to eat when I go out, but the server made it much more easier on me. I ordered the avocado toast! Let me tell you that this is the best avottoast I have ever had! Hands down the best!

You can taste just how fresh the food is! I will be definitely be coming back again!“

“The service was amazing 🤩 I am a tough one when it comes to customer service especially because I’ve done it for over 23 years and from the moment I walked through the door a nice young lady named Carley greeted me immediately with a huge welcoming smile 😃 she seemed excited to be here. Carley seated me and alerted my waitress right away. My waitress an amazing energetic and polite young woman named Emily greeted me right away and took my drink order and was back in less than 5 minutes with my drinks. When I was ready to order she took my order and when it came out it was hot and fresh! Their version of the BLT and tomato Basil soup was amazing my compliments to the chef. The lavender lemonade was also To die for! I sat in this establishment for a bit over two hours just observing, and the team that was on duty were amazing. Everyone seem to be smiling and happy and they all were moving at a respectable rate. The customers all seem happy, and I even watched a few hug a few of them, waiters and waitresses. I’ll be back again and again!“

“cheddar broccoli soup......“

“Our server, Amber, was knowledgeable, professional and put the “S” in service. She made our time very enjoyable.“

“The food was delicious and the staff is very friendly and attentive! Definitely recommend!“

“Ive Never had a bad experience here! I usually dont leave reviews, but figured i owed it! I wento KeKes in Sun City, for the 1st time, I didn't even know there was 1, and the food was So Awful, I almost wrote Kekes off:( To make it worse, the manager tried to fix it...the pancake and potatoes were raw...2nd time out i just kept it..but it still was not good:( My grandson's fries...Awful..they did like the tenders. And for such an awful experience, the manager could have been friendlier. He wasn't rude, I did not ask for a discount...but he gave me the indication that me asking would have led to an even Worse experience.
I said ALL of this in hopes that it keeps Cooper Creek in business! And Sun City respects an Honest review and does better“

“We generally don’t eat at Panera because some of the other locations have been less than impressive in the past. On a whim, we decided to give this location a try and it was the BEST decision my fiancé and I have made recently! This Panera location ROCKS! Every member of the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their job. The food is insanely fresh, hot, and delicious, and they NEVER skimp on portions/ingredients! The menu items actually come out looking like they do in the advertisements - and they are loaded full of flavor. I recommend one of the new toasted baguette sandwiches; in particular, the Buffalo chicken is to die for! In addition to phenomenal food and service, the location is adorable and convenient; the outdoor seating is very cozy and inviting - you feel like you are eating in a garden. This is our new favorite casual dining spot to hit up at the UTC mall. Definitely check it out if you are in the area, you will certainly not regret it!“

“My wife and I rushed to get to this location because they shut down serving breakfast at 10:30. We got there before 10:30 but was told that they had stopped serving breakfast. There overhead signage was still showing breakfast items. How do you stop serving breakfast items before it was 10:30 ? There was not another customer in this place. We walked out and went next door to First Watch.“

“Best martinis ever….Stop by and see Henry!“

“I have enjoyed Blvd Cafe for breakfast and lunch. Love the croissants and latte and both the grilled salmon salad and flank steak with salad were delicious lunch entrees! The owner Mica is gracious and the wait staff hard-working and friendly. Great neighborhood, friendly vibe.“

“Come here quite often and it seems like the crew has changed quite a bit in these past months; it's a Panera bread nothing special but they have definitely changed things up in this specific location quite a bit where things are much better now.“
