It sad this place most likely wont make it..Dead everytime.. Management extremely rude.. Waiting to close out tab for 10 min plus.. while waiting to close out was told by manager we need to take our drinks elsewhere while they set up for next band.. We told management we are waiting to close out he shrugged and walked away..First jazz band was good but management and service not good at all.

This restaurant has been re-named "The Venue" with relatively new ownership, no longer Italian cuisine. Current menu is very limited, service was friendly, we ate downstairs. Decent hamburgers, not much crab in their crab cakes.

Wow! Now that was a burger I will forever crave . I live in the area and can now say in my opinion this is the best burger in Sarasota . I had the country burger . I also had their guacamole as an appetizer , which was also delicious . The wings aren’t to my liking (not super crispy) but others enjoyed them. The people complaining about the price of a burger ( mine was $14.99) are hilarious . It’s St. Armand’s circle , what do you expect? Will be back often .

Made a reservation on a Friday for a dinner party on Saturday night. When we all got to the restaurant we were informed that the restaurant was close for a private party that night. After talking to a worker they told us that yeah the reservation went through but only on the app I used not on their end. But was not apologetic or anything. Very frustrating to have to then switch our night plans.

OMG, food & service is off the scale great! We drove from the east coast for an adventure and found one of the best eateries that can hold its own against any restaurant in Boca Raton. This place begins the moment you walk in the door. There is a genuine greeting and atmosphere that simply says, we appreciate you and want to give you both service and some of the best tasting and prepared food. Once you experience Venue, you'll recalibrate future dining against the Venue's artistically prepared, presented and served plates. Chief Gordon would say "exquisite", nice job!

First time visiting. Music upstairs blew me out of the water. Service was friendly. Food was great, waiter brought me two sauces as requested. Want to hear music that will have you leaving in a good mood, optimistic in the days ahead? Come here. Gonna make a stop here every time I visit Sarasota.

Glad to see The Venue open on the Circle. Great happy hour with yummy drinks and appetizers 1/2 price. Didn't realize there is a Club upstairs, will certainly be back for that - Thursday is Jazz and later Ladies night. Staff and owner(s) very friendly making sure everyone is taken care of.
The food is great. It was the best burger we have had recently and the pizza is really good also.

Burgers look good but they should come with fries, you shouldn't have to pay almost $4 extra for fries, so a burger with fries is almost $20, it better be good. Also one of the reviews says they've been coming to the venue for the last 10 years! NO you havent it opened in May 2019
