“I ordered the pad see eew with chicken and it was amazing! We also had a Florida roll and it was so fresh and delicious. For desert we had mango sticky rice and coconut ice cream which I highly recommend. Nudee was our server and she was so attentive and friendly! Will definitely be coming back very soon :)“

“Food was great,but...The napkins were the worst smelling napkins I've ever come across,they literally smelled like a hospital gown“

“Hubby had the cod, ff and coleslaw. The cod was perfectly breaded very lightly, the french fries yummy and we never got to the coleslaw (taking home leftovers). I had the shrimp scampi fettuccine, in butter sauce – Yum! The bread with the oil dip was wonderful. I highly recommend this place and wish they were much closer to where I live (SRQ airport-could replace Primos! I’m just suggesting).“

“This place is amazing. Great food, great wine, great service and wonderful setting. Best place to eat in LWR, IMO!“

“This place is my all time favorite. The lava rock is just a neat experience overall. They have a unique variety of sushi rolls as well. I’ve been there probably over 20 times and it’s just amazing. ❤️“

“prime rib special was delicious. reservations were at 6:15. it was so loud in the restaurant we couldn't talk to our friends at the table next time, I'm eating outside Then a couple came in with a southeastern guide dog who laid down by my leg I really didn't appreciate this since I am not a dog lover and it is an expensive place to eat.“

“Thank you, Grove, for a wonderful breakfast celebrating our friend! You graciously accommodated about 28 of us for an early Sunday morning brunch, and we truly appreciated the extra touches you provided for our group. 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! :)“

“This honestly seems to be the worst store ever. The drive thru never seems open and a mess inside the store. it's better to make the drive to Panera at UTC or find something else to eat.“

“I absolutely loved the food here! ! ordered the Greek pizza, the Almond Joy dessert, and the cardamom pistachio cheesecake-and every bite was divine.
The flavors were vibrant, fresh, and so thoughtfully crafted. As someone who adores raw vegan food, this place felt like a little slice of heaven. Highly recommend for anyone craving something nourishing, creative, and delicious!“

“Excellent my wife, Northern and I are very impressed as born and bred herbivores“

“Amazing dinner tonight!!! Everything was fresh and delicious. From the red wine, to the winter vegetable soup to our salad and pizza. Every bite! And the staff was awesome. What a hidden gem and they reservations. The wait staff were all from Italy. So authentic. Cute place. We’re definitely going back soon. 💙💙💙“

“The best ice cream in Florida! Generous portions, friendly staff and a wonderful location. You can sit inside or outside, both are fun. Can't wait to go back, yummy!!!“

“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!“

“Simple, tasty home-style food at a great price“

“The 💣 diggity 🍣 🍱. Not only is the food out of this world but the atmosphere is killer. The 1st time we ate there the one and only 🎙️Mick Jagger was there. 5 ⭐️“

“I love to share my food experience with other people, as local guide I write reviews and share photos of the best restaurants, bakeries, pizzerias and cafés I have tried during my world trips. I travel a lot and it allows me to try many places in US and abroad. Especially I love to try vegetarian dishes, even I’m not 100%, but only about 80% vegetarian. Surprisedly I found this very nice place almost next to my house in Sarasota. It’s not so easy to find restaurant with a very good sushi, colorful and 100% vegan in such small town like Sarasota. If you’re looking for a phenomenal not only vegetarian lunch or dining experience, look no further than LILA. Their menu is a culinary masterpiece, offering an incredible selection of dishes that cater to diverse tastes and preferences. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is friendly and attentive, making every visit a true pleasure. I’ve dined at Lila several times and have never been disappointed – it’s truly a must-visit destination for any food lover (not only vegetarian).“

“The food and service did not disappoint. My wife had the mahi tuna salad. It was excellent and crunchy as described on the menu I had scallops. They were perfectly cooked and very tender. Service was very good. Everything arrived timely hot, and the waiter did not hover have eaten at hundreds of restaurants and this is one of the better onesnot exceptionally expensive and in a mall but quite good food and service and I highly recommend.“

“Amazing wine, food and service!“

“We went to the location on Gandy Boulevard today. We were just passing by and saw it so looked up the menu online. At this particular location there was a kiosk to order and no indoor seating. There was a taphouse next-door that had outdoor seating so we grabbed a drink and ate our food there. The portions were large and everything was absolutely delicious! I was delighted to find vegan options. Everything was well seasoned and very flavorful! We would definitely come back again!“

“This restaurant is ABSOLUTELY amazing!! The food is soooo good (and original) and the service is top notch. From the beautiful smile and warmth that we were greeted to by Marilyn, to the friendly and phenomenal service by Lauren, and to the wonderful conversation and love exuding from the owner Suzanne…this place is a GEM. We were so blessed to come here for Easter brunch. Looking forward to (ALWAYS) coming back in the future!!“

“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!!“

The bagels are AMAZING!!! everything was so great and made fresh everyday!!! I even got bagels to bring home with me!“

“Our favorite! We don’t go anywhere else for birthdays but Sarasota Bakehouse for their luscious vegan cupcakes in too many flavors to choose from. They made our beautiful vegan wedding cake as well, and four years later, our guests are STILL telling us it was the best cake they’ve ever had and asking where we ordered it from. A local gem!“

“Selva is always our "go to" place for anniversaries and birthdays. Last night was as expected - great food, great service, great weather for enjoying outside dining. The rose and the complementary dessert always a nice touch. Keep doing what you do!“
