“Absolutely love it here… The pasta, sauces, and dressings are all homemade. The pizza with their homemade dough is phenomenal… which also comes in a gluten-free option, for those of you… My favorite thing about this whole place is the server and manager, Johnathin. He brings a personal and enjoyable experience every time. 10 out of 10 I highly recommend.“

“Friday night was a spectacular evening at Block 15 Cork & Craft owners Tom & Melanie were great hosts. After a week of cleaning up from Hurricane Milton and losing their power, it was ready to open their doors. They offered delicious Gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and Charcuterie & Cheese Boards complementary to their guests as a good gesture for the loyalty of their patronage.
We ordered a bottle of their Portuguese Silk & Spice White Blend Wine that accompanied the snacks superbly and offered a nice selection of NA Beers to one of our guests. They offered a nice selection of Wines, Beers, and Ports with their State of the Art Cruvinet Wine System that supplies you with a Fresh and Crisp Glass of Wine each and every time.
This place has a Relaxing Atmosphere with a Long Spacious Bar and plenty of Hightop Seating throughout the Bar. We brought a group of people for an evening of entertainment with our good friends Tasa+Rob, a Dazzling Musical Husband & Wife Duo that transport you back in time with the Classic Songs from the 60's, 70's, and 80's and too today's current hits.
What an evening of Fun & Entertainment, so put it on your list to Patronize Block 15 Cork & Craft and don't forget to follow the Amazing ever so Talented Tasa+Rob.
Ciao Sarasota.“
“Another unique find!
Located in a strip center inside a liquor store (Dive wine & Spirits) this was easily the most unique location we’ve dined in over the last several months. We’re always looking for small owner operated restaurants and this one fit the bill with 5 tables seating 32 and a bar that seats 10. The menu varies day-to-day quite a bit and we came on wine & pasta night.
We arrived a little bit early and decided to have a pre-dinner cocktail in the Dive bar. The Dive bar is located in the back of the liquor store and accessed through a sliding freezer door. The bar seats about 10 and there is also a couch and some seating off to the side. It’s a bit dark in the bar, but the boxes stacked floor to ceiling give it a special ambiance and it almost feels like you’re sitting in a speakeasy room that’s a half bar - half storage. The bar menu had a good deal of craft cocktails - pretty unique stuff.
We eventually moved to the Hive which is the restaurant. It’s accessed through a different part of the liquor store and didn’t open till 6 PM. All five tables are high tops with chairs that had backs. Table spacing was good and the noise level was never loud due our meal. Because it was pasta night there were scenes of Italy scrolling on TV screens.
On arrival we were warmly greeted and seated by Michael who would be our waiter. We were never rushed throughout the meal and he would check back often to make sure we’re doing OK.
The menu was one page long and printed for the night. Between the four of us we ordered two appetizers and three different entrées.
The peaches & whipped ricotta was served with focaccia bread. The peaches gave the ricotta a nice flavor. Portion was shareable.
The burrata and prosciutto appetizer came out on a bed of arugula. Nice presentation, good portion and good flavor throughout. also shareable.
I find it hard to pass up a good Bolognese, and this one was unique in that it was cream-based with malfadine pasta. Portion was good and the flavor was outstanding. I finished the entire bowl. Should be noted they make all their own pastas.
Two others ordered the shrimp and scallop Florentine. The portion was nice with lots of shrimp and scallops. Great flavor that we accentuated with some red pepper seeds to give it a little kick.
The last entrée was chicken Milanese with shrimp substituted for the chicken. Great flavor and lots of shrimp.
We did not order dessert. Between the appetizers and the entrées, we were all full. In the future, we would split the appetizers.
Between the unique atmosphere, great service and excellent food we had an enjoyable and memorable evening here at the Hive. I feel like we were lucky to get a reservation. Although the restaurant was not crowded when we were there, I think in the future it will be based on our experience. We also like the fact that the menu varies.“

“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.“

“Atmosphere great. Owner is wonderful Camille. Waiter is arrogant and never ever apologizes when food doesn’t come out prepared as requested. When an entire plate of steak frites is sent back undercooked doesn’t even offer anything as an apology“
“Great place with a wide range of cigars to check out. Kim is the best to deal with, knows her stuff, and always makes me feel welcomed when I stop in!“
“My son and I are visiting my aunt here in Bradenton and she asked us what we wanted to eat for dinner. Since my husband typically doesn’t like when I cook or eat fish, I told her I’d like to find a good fish restaurant. :) She took us to seasons 52 and it did not disappoint. I had the trout and it was amazing!!!! The seasoning on the fish, potatoes and asparagus was top notch, and the portions were so filling. We ate until we were stuffed. Matthew was our server and he was so knowledgeable and took great care of us. The room was a little dark for my taste, but I understand it was the ambience for probably more of a date night vibe rather than family dinner. In all, I would highly recommend seasons 52. If I lived closer, I would definitely make this a regular stop.“

“Food is very good, especially their subs, actually the best sub i have ever had here in sarasota. i also love their frozen raviolis, Pastosa brand, which are imo the best frozen raviolis you can buy. their prepared foods are really good also. as for the actual market, like specialty items, not bad , but when your comparing it to mazzaros in st. petes, its just ok.“

“6/30/26 THE BEST! The Flight of Majesty, generous pour wine event, WAS FANTASTIC! Curated wine tasting menu, (6) wines served, with a very tasty, well done, delicious options, wine dinner. Danielle Craig (managing partner), and Amador Monroy (certified trainer of service), sure know how to be successful. A must do again, before it ends Aug 30. Extremely pleased.“

“My husband and I recently had the pleasure if dining at Sophie’s, in Saks Fifth Avenue in Sarasota. What an amazing experience. The decor both inside and outside so chic. We had Matty as our waitress. She was spot on with top notch service and a wonderful personality. We started with a bread basket of assorted toppings, delicious. He had the Tai chicken. Well prepared and perfect with seasoning. I had on of the best burger ever. Cooked and seasoned perfectly at medium rare with tasty fries. The manager checked on us several times, a nice touch you don’t see anymore. If you happen to be in the area at the mall, I highly recommend this restaurant. You will not be disappointed. We will be back.“

“Man was a big fan of Ruth Chris on 41 use to go there several times a month until the quality of the food took a nose dive i ordered the stuffed chicken and it was undercooked big time they sent it back for it to come back a second time time still pink in the inside and everyone knows that’s a big no no for chicken and that was just one of many different incidents that turned me away from that particular location.well I’ve going to the new location in Lakewood ranch and boi I tell yeah they reminded me of the good days again chicken cooked to perfection crispy juicy and just down right delicious 😋, crab cakes ribeye and the spicy shrimp perfectly prepared and served every time and I’ve been to this location about 15 times or so haven’t been to the 41 location in years and I hope there doing better over there but I for sure won’t ever find out personally because I’m going to this one every time 🫡“

“Small Italian restaurant. Pizzas and entrees are all amazing. I've eaten in and done take out, always great. Nanna's Longhots- with sautéed hot peppers and crisp potato slices is so flavorful. The meatball appetizer with ricotta and crostini is suitable for a small individual meal. My favorite dish is the Benny's Penne with sausage, mushroom, spinach and creamy marmalade sauce- be prepared to want to lick the plate clean!“

“We hosted a 40-guest private event at Cafe Amici, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was amazing, everything ran smoothly, and the staff was friendly, professional, and efficient throughout the night. I had to leave a bit early, and the staff was kind enough to neatly place my decorations together so I could easily pack them up the next day, which I truly appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to host our event. Highly recommend Cafe Amici for any private party or special occasion“
