“First time diner here. Great food, great mix of flavors, and well prepared with large portions. Probably the best Trout Almandine I have ever had. It's may not be as well known as its next door neighbor, but the food and service to us are better at 481 Gourmet. Give it a try.“
“As always, the ambiance, food and service were delightful. This restaurant is an oasis of comfort, grace and uniquely prepared flavors and components. Scratch cooking always takes longer than par cooked bulk cooking found elsewhere, plan on sitting back, savoring your companions, the atmosphere, and cocktails-you can always hear yourself think and have great conversation. A unique experience.“
“Just perfect. It's not often a restaurant can tick off all the boxes well. They did just that last night before the opera. Pleasant at walking in, greeted and seated very pleasantly. Service was at the perfect cadence never rushed and respectful of our opera start. Nor did anyone try to clear the table early, a practice I loathe.Meal was great and our waitress (Meredith) couldn't have been more perfect.I'll be back for sure.“
“Possibly our favorite Sarasota restaurant. Excellent food, good service, and a wine list that is not only serviceable but significantly under-priced. We go to Antoine’s 3 times a year or so, and every time we say that we should go more often. First visit was in 2015 or so.“
“Just off the Siesta Key island and worth the short drive. Pleasant French owner and his son. Great and unique French pastries and sandwiches and lunch mains. Reasonable prices. VERY RECOMMENDEDParking: Strip mall parking, but several open spaces where the restaurant is.“
“Amazing food, we had quiche Lorraine and a couple varieties of savory crepes, all were the best we've ever had BUT we waited far longer than the tables around us for our breakfast and our server was rude about it rather than apologetic, then took 20min just to bring the bill. Maybe an isolated incident but it marred what should have been a rave review.“
“Trying to find a place to celebrate my birthday with my closest friends, we came accross Sprig of Thyme. The minute my husband called to make a reservation Luigi was absolutely welcoming, kind and very excited to host us. We felt appreciated and very excited to come to the restaurant after our conversation with Luigi. Luigi took his time to make sure we had everything we wanted to celebrate my birthday prior to our reservation. When we got to the restaurant yesterday, we had a beautiful table set up for our group of friends. We had the pleasure to meet Jessica (Luigi’s wife). Jessica was also very welcoming and kind and was very happy to host us. The servers, staff and the atmosphere in this place was absolutely excellent! The food was incredible, we all tried different items from the menu and every single one of them was great, but my favorite was the duck! It was amazing!!! If you are looking for a unique, exclusive and high quality place, this is the place for you, where not only food is amazing, but you are treated like family!!! We will definitely be going back very soon! Thank you Luigi and Jessica!!!“
“This bakery/Cafe is located at 5336 Clark Road in Sarasota, a little West of I-75 on the South side of the road. It is an Oasis in a world of bland baked products. Prices are understandably high though not as high as Expected. This is arefreshing getaway from Supermarket baked goods. Get there in the morning, because it is sparcely populated with pastries in the afternoon.“
“This small French restaurant was such a treat! We were in from out of town and my dad loves this restaurant. Not white table cloth but a cozy, more casual atmosphere. I have the escargot (excellent) and the filet mignon which was legitimately one of the best I ever had. My wife had the lamb chops which she loved and we shared the peach Melba desert which was a special, it was delirious! The service was by a lovely woman and very timely. If you are looking for a hidden gem while in the Sarasota area, I highly recommend!“
“I discovered PRENDEZ-VOUS Bakery a few months ago and have become a regular customer. It's a little piece of France in the middle of Sarasota. The bread is delicious and crisp, the viennoiseries are just perfect and the pastries are a real treat.The service is always warm and friendly. The staff are always happy to help you choose the right bread or pastry.The atmosphere is warm and friendly. The bakery has a few tables inside where you can enjoy your coffee and croissant.In short, RENDEZ-VOUS Bakery is an excellent address for all lovers of French bread, viennoiseries and pastries. I highly recommend this place!PS: A special thanks to Orlane, who is not only attentive to your needs, but also super pleasant and welcoming.“
“This place remains excellent over the years, and is a little gem tucked in the south end of Siesta Key. Go here for a nice dinner!!We had a great early bird dinner with friends so we could catch sunset at Point of Rocks beach after. Everything was great, the petit filet mignon, the grilled filet de boeuf forestire, with a ragout of oyster, portobello and cremini mushrooms, and the grilled redfish with romescu sauce, all were served with soup (do Garlic), salad, a small veggie plate app, mashed potatoes, sautéed green beans and a carrot mash and dessert. All dishes were excellent!They also served happy hour drinks with the early bird dinners, which was a nice surprise! Also had desserts of bread pudding, homemade strawberry ice cream, chocolate mousse and red velvet cake. All desserts were good as well.“
“I find Eggs-Traordinary to be one of the best if not the best restaurants in 34241. The food is spot on every time and the service is excellent, always friendly. There are a few tables to eat outside and the restaurant is always clean. The menu has a nice variety of breakfast and lunch. I like to eat there twice or three times a month and my favorite is the veggie quiche which is always done to perfection. The side of fruit is bananas, blackberries, strawberries and grapes, always fresh and never the old melon standby. I highly recommend you give it a try...you will not be disappointed.“
“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“
