“Ka Papa is a true gem serving the vegan community of south Florida! These guys clearly are experienced in working with plant cuisine: the tastes brought forward in their dishes speak for themselves. I had the vegan escargot appetizer which was surprisingly buttery, rich & appetizing! We also had a fettuccini & mushroom dish which was to die for & the recommended plant protein steak with mashed potatoes - one of the best vegan steaks I have had in my entire life (vegan since 1992, so somewhat of a veteran vegan here). We had cake & ice cream for desert & felt like we flexed the menu heartily. For a weeknight the place was busy & service was on point, I can’t express how much I genuinely appreciated the terrific experience at Ka Papa!“

“Linda and I went for the first time about a week ago. We should have gone sooner. The food was so good and the decor was refreshing. Great service and a great meal. We're going again tonight.“

“Absolutely the BEST ice cream around. As a family we drive an hour nearly every week to eat Jake's ice cream...YES, it's that good! Incredibly kind owner and staff as well, this place is a must visit if in the Sarasota area (and beyond!) Once you've tasted Jake's ice cream it's hard to ever eat anything else, he's raising the standards for homemade ice cream with every flavor - although we all have our favorites we've never tried one we didn't like!! (My personal favorite is Salty Turtle)“

“Found this restaurant by accident. It was really good. Mike and Quin are a dynamic duo. They made our experience so much fun.“

“Had a yet again wonderful dinner experience there this past Saturday. The food was great, bested only by the wonderful service and welcoming atmosphere. I called them this morning in search of my credit card that I was frantically looking for. I believe it was the owner who answered, and even though they were closed at that time, volunteered himself to go the restaurant to see if my card was there. He called me within a half hour that it was there. He waited until I got there to give me the card. He was an absolute gem to do this of his own accord. I can’t thank him and his wonderful restaurant enough!“

“We came here for the first time this week. Our waiter was incredible. The food is probably some of the best Italian that Sarasota has to offer. We will absolutely be back. Thank you so much for a wonderful date night!“

“First timers but def won’t be the last! The crabcakes, lobster bisque, tuna tacos, & beef short rib were the tastiest & freshest food we had while here. Wished we would have tried it sooner in our trip cuz I’m going to bed thinking of the food!! We sat out back where a guy was playing guitar & it was just a whole vibe. We love love love good food!! Service (Monica, I hope) was exceptional. This will be one of our faves for sure. Portions were perfect. Did I say how delectable the tuna was? Mmmm….⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amazing fresh food and great service! Plus super creative offerings!“

“Very lucky to have this in Sarasota. Love“

“Fantastically delicious! This place knows how to test your tastebuds♥️“

“Love the food and the service“

“We celebrated our anniversary at Selva and it couldn't have been more perfect. The service was phenomenal—attentive without being overbearing. Our entrees (steak) were bursting with flavor, and the dessert was the prettiest we've ever had. It's easy to see why this place is so loved.“

“Wow! What an impressive evening at every level. Do not hesitate and book this restaurant for your next food adventure. The moment you walk into this establishment, you know the vibe is cool and these people know their food & spirits. The food is incredible and different than the typical Sarasota restaurant that has the same boring food offerings. I was impressed with the Iberico pork dish and unusually amazingly flavored vegetables and spices that accented the smoky, tender pork. The yuca side dish was similar to a potato but more flavorful and crispier mixed with an addition of corn, pickled cabbage and other vegetables. I haven't found a dish that impressed me more in recent years. The crispy salmon was a "oh wow" moment for my friend, who hails from the Pacific Northwest as do I, where Washingtonians know a thing or two about salmon. This restaurant provides your palate something different and if you're a veteran of dining out constantly, this is a welcomed change from the ordinary. The New York steak included an amazing demi glaze exploding with flavor and had the perfect consistency which can be a challenge to make right but State Street Eatinghouse + Cocktails got it right. I highly recommend the fried Brussell sprouts appetizer as they were a flavor explosion in our mouths. The bacon amplified the sprouts with the accompaniment of the balsamic glaze. My friend's husband and mine, who usually don't like this vegetable, were pleasantly surprised and ate more than the obligatory "try one" bite. State Street Eating House + Cocktails is owned by the same people that introduced us to tapas restaurant "Beso", which I recently tried, and awarded it my "Best Restaurant in Sarasota" award. This restaurant belongs in the "Restaurant Hall of Fame" of Sarasota or even US restaurants. I love it! My waiter, Dana, was super attentive and impressive. His vast knowledge of the drink and food menu was spot-on and his candor and expertise added to the whole evening's experience. What an amazing restaurant! I can't wait to book my next reservation and I'm kicking myself for not trying it sooner. Cheers! Dietary restrictions: I appreciate they were mindful of my cow's milk allergy which makes eating out difficult since most dishes have butter and/or cheese. Thank you for helping me feel confident about eating here.“

“Our favorite restaurant when we come to Siesta Key. Had dinner last night, my husband had the skirt steak, I had the pork tenderloin..Both were perfection. Be sure to make a reservation.“
