Restaurants near North Venice

“I was in today for a work lunch, my 1st time ever. It was outstanding! I ordered the Long Boat press and I loved it. I am a creature of habit so I naturally would want to order it again...and again. Luckily for me, we were a big group so I got to see what everyone else had too, I plan to work my way through the whole menu! Great work!”

“we first found pizza gorda in punta gorda and were regulars every sat nite, everything is always excellent. When they opened in Venice we hoped it would be as good, and it is. We are regulars there now and look forward to our dinners. You can't go wrong with anything!!!”

“Jersey Mike’s always has fresh baked sub rolls, very good sandwhich made to order. They use good quality meats, cheese and condiments. The service is and food is always good and the stores are always clean and well lit. Been going to Jersey Mikes sub shops off and on for about 29!years. The food has always been consistently good.”

“Good as always!!!! 1 star missing because of Vanessa!!! 3 ketchups packs for 3 meals!!!! I did ask for more😅 Now i have in total 5 ketchup packs and a window slammed right in my face!!! I know its early Vanessa but not my fault your working morning shifts😅”

“We don’t eat a lot of fast food but the rare times we have gone to this Wendy’s , I have to say, it’s been the hottest and freshest fast food ever. There is always the same male manager (no matter day or night) and the food is always extremely fresh, hot, and fries are crispy. We have never had a wrong order, never had a bad experience, never left unsatisfied. For fast food, I’m extremely impressed with the quality.”

“We had a family gathering catered by Dolce Italia and everything was absolutely amazing! We had trays of the Trenne Dolce Italia with sausage, an eggplant dish and homemade pasta with meatballs, which was absolutely delicious. The Mista salad was beautiful, fresh and the perfect compliment to the meal. The process was easy thanks to Matthew’s suggestions and the food was hot, packaged well and ready to be served.”

“Wow Wow Wow! Absolutely delicious and authentic Italian food! I never order pasta from a pizza joint... I'm way too serious about my pasta. I took a chance on Capo as I'd had a slice of their eggplant pizza and it was fabulous. I orded the rigatoni bolognese, and requested penne as a substitute. It was heaven. The sauce was perfect - the amount of garlic was subtley handled as was the rest of the seasoning. No bitterness and not too sweet either. You can tell the sauce had been cooked awhike and not rushed. The meat was high quality and the coupe de gras was to burrata! A huge helping of cheese right in the middle of the dish. The serving was huge... I only needed it for myself and I got 3 meals from it. Of course as all pasta lovers know it was even better the second day. I had the good fortune to be offered a meatball to try by the owner. I went back the next week for an order of meatballs and tried the gnocchi. Highly highly highly recommend giving this place a try!!!”

“One of my favorite places to eat in Sarasota. Their crab cakes are some of the best I have ever had, and they always have a great oyster menu.”

“Absolutely phenomenal food! An Iowa family visiting for vacation and was NOT disappointed! We tried the Al pastor taco, the shrimp taco, asada tacos, a classic all American, and a quesadilla… all were absolutely fantastic! The salsa… SO GOOD 👏🏻 Even though we’re only here for a few days we will definitely find ourself coming back before heading back home! The staff were extremely kind and helpful on answering questions as well! 10/10 highly recommend!! Thanks for a great experience!”

“Tony’s Chicago Hot Dogs in Sarasota is the real deal. The hot dogs are deep-fried and cooked over hot coils, giving them a crisp bite and smoky flavor you don’t get anywhere else. Toppings are classic Chicago-style, fresh, and piled high. It’s a fun, casual spot that delivers exactly what you want from a hot dog stand.”

The food was so delicious, I got the Grouper and my husband got the Hogfish. It was our anniversary and they gave us a huge surprise of a dessert that was amazing! The fish was perfect and those whipped potatoes are delightful. The happy hour has great deals on drinks too! We can’t wait to go back soon.”

“Our first visit will certainly not be our last. Well worth the drive up from Venice. My wife had the two meat dinner choosing the pulled pork and ribs with Mac & cheese. I had the special of the night Korean short ribs which were exceptional. Collard greens were my side and we finished up with the bomb bread pudding and Kae’s banana dream. Excellent service from everyone especially Kylee and got to meet the chef and owner who were as nice as can be and clearly love and excel at what they do!”
