The food was delicious, and Danielle did a fabulous job taking care of us and supporting her co-workers. Jennifer, the manager was very helpful! :)“

“So delicious, everything is home made. It is a small intimate restaurant and the owners/chefs are so welcoming. The pasta is so delicious and the focaccia bread to the mussels appetizer to the lamb sauce over fettuccine was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The homemade mixture they serve with the bread is unlike anything we have ever had and it was their grandma’s recipe that made it extra special. I would suggest a reservation for this hidden gem!“

“Der Dutchman in Sarasota is a gem. The food is hearty, fresh, and consistently delicious — especially the fried chicken and homemade pies. The buffet is always well stocked, and the bakery items are worth taking home. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere feels warm and family-oriented. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a traditional Amish-style meal in Sarasota.“

“I ordered pickup for my first time today and the food did not disappoint. It was seasoned very well, and you receive a nice sized portion with great selections to choose from. My only issue is that on the website there are no calories listed for the menu items. I would love to know how much I’m consuming without having to weigh out each section of the meal myself. Otherwise great pickup service and I will be ordering again.“

“We had dinner last night and can’t stop talking about how much we enjoyed the food and service! We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and the host treated us to prosecco while we waited for our table. The filet, the halibut, the lobster tails, the desserts (especially the chocolate cake!) was all absolutely delicious!! Our server was wonderful as well! Very personable and had great menu recommendations. We will be back!!“

“I submitted a review through Google, but I will include it here as well. I cannot recommend this shop enough. First time coming was in early Summertime. Came in with friends, craving some ice cream. Not only did this place deliver, I have come back time and time again since receiving the same incredible service and atmosphere Ryan and his team brings. The rotating flavors are a wonderful dream of variety. If anyone is ever looking for a place for that sweet tooth, or a beautiful way to end your Downtown venture, achieve Great Heights. You will leave soaring through Great Heights.“
