They do college and national sports, trivia, karaoke, Happy Hours and occasional over 50 Happy Hours. Kid friendly too. Well behaved pets love it too! Shaded, open air upper deck to enjoy cocktails and food. Sarasota's official Philadelphia Eagle's Nest too! Nice clean place, good vibes and good food! In an area of corporate type places, Raffurty's stands out as a friendly, local Sarasota spot you should check out and patronize! 👍“

His caring and funny personality is one of the biggest reasons we choose this Applebee’s over any other location. We always come back just for him!10/10 experience every single time!“

“This is a very unique place. I have driven by it many times and always wanted to go in so me and my girlfriend went. When you walk in it feels like you walked into a Time Machine circa 1960. Plastic grass ceiling tiles, 2 velvet couches, darts, 2 pool tables, high tops and lots of TV for watching all kinds of sports. The barmaid was very sweet and attentive and offered us many drink choices.

Each night has a different music; open mic night, karaoke, local bands and jute box music. Love the versatility of the place.

The backyard has a tiki bar, a small miniature golf course, corn hole and is a smokers paradise!

Love this place. Would definitely go back.

Reasonable prices!“

“So I popped into scullers, utc sarasota this early evening, which I been a customer for a while with no issues only with this bartender Casey said, to me this evening, I am not serving you, and I said are you joking and whats the reason and she said no I dont need a reason and told me to leave., so here a little back story with Casey, which she done with other customers, she accused me of walking out on a one beer tab...which was my first time meeting here.. she accused me of theft, in front of a bar full of customers, which she new was false, because I heard Casey as done this to other customers. Sent email to linksters managnment with no reply back. Second incident about a few months ago she approached me and said you can not smoke your cigar during trivia night that they have every Wednesday, Casey said customers complained about the smoke. So I sat outside far side and customers who knew me from that night asking me why your all the way over there smoking and I said Casey banned me from smoking..I wrote an email to linkstersManagnment and no reply back. Casey as some issues.. never had issues with no other bartender besides Casey which she created and she makes drama were there not need to be.... Not serving me this evening with out no reason is crazy, is Casey bar its Scullers bar.. im just confused on how she can treat customers like this and she allowed to behave in this manner, Casey is so unprofessional on how she treated me and other customers.“

“Came here at the recommendation of some locals, as to the best places to watch the Buffalo Bill game. We were happy to see a large group of Bills fans, and food menu with many WNY favorites. Buffalo shrimp, Buffalo chicken dip & chips, beef on weck, and of course chicken wings, to name a few. One of each to share was the plan for each quarter, along with lots of beers. Solid plan, right? “Sorry, we ran out of wings” was the response from our server, when we tried to order just after the 1st quarter ended.😱🤯 Loved everything about this place, but seriously, how in the world does a Bills backer bar run out of chicken wings at the start of a Bills game?“

“Great experience today! I was warmly greeted at the door to place a to-go-order. The staff was super friendly, helpful from taken my order and multiple other team staff making sure I was taken care of and checking on my order status without me asking.“

“I'm a Buffalo Wings lover since many years ago. I was visiting Sarasota during the weekend, it was late night, on my way returning to Fort Myers. Then, while driving, I saw this shop on the way. Then quickly decided to try it, and turn around to stop there. I was not familiarized with this Buffalo Wild Wings GO as a brand. After finished my meal, I need to say that I was very well surprised. Great taste, great quality and perfect balanced spiced flavor. I enjoyed a lot. Recommendable with no doubt.“

“Very clean and something to do for everyone! Amazing atmosphere and the pizza was awesome! My 3 year old enjoyed it very much as well as me and my husband, we will definitely will be back! overall we were NOT disappointed ❤️“

“We go there both Tue and Wed happy hours and have the specials on the menu.. The food is normally good and inexpensive but this last Wed the wings were over cooked to a point you couldn'eat them. I complained to the bartender who was new (no uniform) who didn't seem interested. But that being said, Ed's is a great place although crowded at times.“

“Amanda is absolutely amazing!! Always have a great time when she’s our server“

“My time at Evies was wonderful thanks to the attentive and so sweet bartender Meg!! It got very busy but she was so fast and so kind the whole time. She was such a delight!! I was here from out of town and I would come back to Evies just for her alone!

Thank you to Meg for the amazing experience.“

“Excellent quick food for my fam down the road at the doubletree. Done on time, nice and fresh. Wings were not over sauced, which just kills me. Good options for the kiddo and wife. Good sized wings and friendly people. My bar isn’t super high when I’m on vacay, but this place hits the mark. Great place to snag in house or Togo if you’re in the area!“
