“We love the ham & Swiss w bechamel sauce & the bacon & onion fougasses. Highly recommend any & all desserts!! Great staff too!“

“We were on vacation in Sarasota and this place is a must visit! The pastries and baked goods they have are so good and delicious!! Their selection of drinks is amazing as well and has something for everyone! We didn’t try any savory dishes but they were probably really good too. The workers were also so nice and the atmosphere was so chill and cool!!! Would definitely visit again!“

“This bakery is hands down the best! Their cupcakes are absolutely delicious, with so many flavors to choose from—including fantastic vegan options.

I especially wanted to leave this review because they went above and beyond for my son's birthday. He had his heart set on their Cookies & Cream and Neapolitan cupcakes, and they made a special exception to make sure he got exactly what he wanted. That level of kindness and thoughtfulness meant more to our family than I can put into words.

The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding, and the care they put into our order truly made my son's birthday extra special. I'm incredibly grateful for everything they did, and we'll definitely be back for future celebrations. I highly recommend this bakery to anyone looking for amazing treats and excellent customer service!“

“My wife and I are both Key Lime Pie fanatics. We have had it all over the Keys and S Florida and we both agree that Flo's, hands down, is the best we have ever had. I cant wait to get back to Sarasota to get another one!
We were staying in Venice and went out to eat in Sarasota and saw the sign on 41 in our way to the restaurant.
After dinner, I checked their website to see what time they closed. We would barely make it. I called and told them I needed a pie but might not make it by closing. The young man assured me it would be waiting at the register at whatever time we arrived. True to his word, he had it ready and waiting 5 minutes after closing when I arrived.
Great service and the best key lime pie we have ever had!“

“Great food“

“I read the reviews online (I’m from out of state) and couldn’t be happier w the cake I ordered for my father’s 80th birthday. The customer service was outstanding, especially the woman who I met in the store when I picked up my order. She was such a lovely person and so helpful. She helped me pick out some other pastries and helped me carry my goodies to the car. The chocolate buttercream frosting on the cake reminded me of the icing my grandfather used to make. Everything was wonderful and so delicious. Everyone loved the cake! Thank you!“

“Best neighbor 👌! Our day to day coffee breakfast lunch place“

“These pastries are the best I have had outside of France, but they're not French. They are distinctly dulce de leche! She's got a white chocolate alfajore and other alfajores that will knock your socks off. I had no problems communicating with the lady who checked me out even though I do not speak Spanish. She speaks enough English to make herself understood. Her pastries are simply divine! Who doesn't love dulce de leche?“

“My husband and I had a wonderful Mother’s Day at Elixir’s tea house! The service was top-notch. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The food was ample and delicious…I would highly recommend!!!Thank you for a wonderful Mother’s Day❤️“

“The quality of everything in that store is top notch including the staff“

“We had Cakes by Ron do our wedding cake for our destination wedding. The whole process was seamless. Very responsive to messages, and they were able to drop it off at our reception venue. Not to mention the cake was delicious and enjoyed by all the guests. Highly recommend.“

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

“Absolutely amazing!! The wheat seeded sourdough loaf is by far the best I've ever had. I'm truly impressed with the flavor, texture, moisture, everything about it is delectable and I will be coming back for more! The French imported butter is great too. ☺️🙌“

“Another wonderful visit to the Upper Crust Bakery, it’s a must when in Venice. The scones are the best we have had since moving to the USA from England.“

“Always a great experience when visiting Parlor. Wonderful staff, clean environment and very delicious.“

“I stopped in to meet with a friend and it was almost perfect. 4/5. I will start with the good. The latte was nice (they have oat and almond milk so happy to have diary free options). I ordered a pistachio muffin and was so excited to see they make them here. It was delicious! Probably one of the best I have had. Thank you for making this flavor! The woman at the counter was very nice and she makes a great latte. The cafe is small but has a decent amount of seating. The vibe is of a quick service cafe. It isn’t trying to be anything that it is not. The baked goods speak for themselves! So far so good! Until I realized there was a woman with her pet dog (not a service dog) at one of the tables INSIDE. She had a full breakfast spread and the dog barked the entire time. We got to hear the dog barking on and off the whole time AND listen to her snap at her dog to stop barking. It gets better. She put the dog in her lap several times (doggy dining health codes for OUTSIDE dining requires dogs to remain on the ground, off furniture/laps, and not use human dishes etc.). At one point the dog jumped on the other chair at her table and ate an entire quiche (or whatever it was) right off the plate. I was incredulous. Was this really happening? Why are we letting this happen? I love dogs and have two well behaved old guys that I will take for outside doggy dining when the weather is not too hot. Health codes are pretty clear about animals. My line of work also has me working closely with those needing properly trained service animals and this woman wasn’t even trying to pretend it was a service dog. Of course I will be back for a muffin and coffee. But if that woman is there with her dog again I might just go elsewhere.“

“We just tried the apple tart and the blueberry almond tart tonight while at Waterside Food Trucks. Can’t wait to try something else! So good!“

“Their key lime pie is the best! The lady that helped me was very friendly in person and over the phone. If you love key lime pie you need to check them out, it’s worth the drive.“

“Delicious and a wonderful gift idea“

“Celebrating our youngest daughter’s birthday and engagement, what a beautiful morning, great pastries, amazing croissants, and the drinks were divine!“

“Made a trip from Ft Myers yesterday with 5 friends and we are so glad we did! Such a cute little shop with very friendly staff. Explained to us how the Chimney Cakes are made after we enjoyed a delicious lunch! Couldn’t pass up bringing some home. We will be back 😃“

“Great food at a fair price!“

“We are from the Upper Ohio Valley, about a half hour from Pittsburgh (Weirton, WV) and had the BEST donuts in the area (Oram’s- voted best in Pennsylvania, and Pete’s-a hometown treasure). Since moving to Englewood, we finally tried Yummies and were SUPER IMPRESSED! The cream sticks (which they call Long John’s) were fresh, soft, and filled with a delicious buttery, vanilla cream filling. My husband loved the frosted cinnamon roll donut, too. So glad we found a local donut shop that tastes like “home”!!“

“Just had breakfast this morning. Will not return. Ordered two eggs benedict breakfast. Awful. Eggs came out hard-boiled on toast. Sauce was runny and weak and did not have the creamy consistency. Eggs were cold. Waiter brought out what appeared like a mandatory 20 percent gratuity. I complained to my waiter and to my family from out of town. Will walk across street next time.“

“As a retired/injured firefighter I aggravated an old injury attempting to remove tree limbs from the sidewalk and bicycle lanes in front of my townhouse after Hurricane IAN. Again experiencing limited mobility, I trusted PERKINS and DoorDash for my meals. Great food, Great service! Thanks.“

“When we first visited Venice looking for what would eventually become our home, Black Gold Coffee Roasters was one of the first places we found. We had no idea then how much it would become part of our life.

Now it's one of my favorite places to be. It's where my husband and I sneak away for coffee dates, dream about what's next, plan our businesses, and simply enjoy being together. It has become part of the rhythm of our week. It has even become a family favorite with our kids never wanting to miss out on a stop.

It's been so fun to watch Black Gold grow, and now we have the pleasure of enjoying both locations with the opening of the Island location at the beautiful Lord Higel House. Each location has its own charm, but both carry the same welcoming atmosphere and sense of community.

Gary, Alyssa, and the entire team have created something really special. The coffee is wonderful, but it's the people and the atmosphere that keep us coming back. Every visit feels warm, inviting, and like you're among friends.

If you're looking for more than just a great cup of coffee and if you're looking for a place that truly feels like home, I can't recommend Black Gold Coffee Roasters enough.“

“We just tried the apple tart and the blueberry almond tart tonight while at Waterside Food Trucks. Can’t wait to try something else! So good!“

“We love going for coffee and donuts. Now that it’s warming up I tried the donut sundae! Yum! Taking my love for ice cream to the next level with a warm donut! 🍩“

“Naranjo Café Bakery is a hidden gem for anyone who loves authentic Cuban pastries and baked goods. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of fresh bread and pastries fills the air, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. I recommend anybody looking for bday cakes, wedding this is your guy!“

“Went to 5-0 donut co for the first time this week. We bought several types of donuts and an apple fritter. The donuts and apple fritter were absolutely delicious. The staff and ownership is awesome and go above and beyond to serve you and make your experience great. Will definitely be coming back !!“

“Delicious 😋 will make a road trip from Tampa, FL again anytime! Thanks!“

“We had the most delicious breakfast there today. Terrific, helpful server. Immaculately clean, wonderful menu choices. We'll be regulars!“

“So friendly and welcoming! The coffee was perfectly made to order and food was excellent!! Love this place!“
