Beautiful romantic upscale place is nearly all vegan with a few options for carnivores. This worked out well for my friend and me, and she loved all the things we tried. I have got to attempt making rice tots. Great wine list too. We liked it so much that we did a delivery a few days later, and it was amazingly fast. Very creative sushi. And we took home the blueberry cheesecake, so decadent. What a lovely downtown Sarasota has.

This restaurant was at the top of our list to try due the menu offering a vast variety of vegan dishes. The atmosphere was wonderful and it was a cozy casual dining experience. The food was delicious but, we had ordered 2 items, an appetizer and a sushi roll and it took a little over an hour to receive those two items. Our server had really only updated us once that the kitchen was a little backed up and did not refill our water during this wait, we finally had to ask about it. I would order take out from this restaurant, but i would only go to the restaurant if you have ample time to do so.

you added a bunch of meat options, and took out some very good vegan options. Very disappointing. You used to be famous for your Rice tots not nearly what they once were. We were regulars for sometime about a year ago disappointed there aren't many vegan restaurants and now you are not one anymore

We were visiting Sarasota and dinner here - We chose the restaurant because of the vast menu that is very vegan and gluten free friendly. Everything was delicious! We sampled a variety of dishes…a salad, (with the greatest homemade seed crackers) the noodle bowl, mushroom burger …..And our server was great too! Highly recommend!!!!!

Excellent menu with a wide range of plant-based options. The food was great and the server was friendly and helpful. My only compkaint was that they were oit of a number of the beers listed as on tap. This is probably not a common problem, I assume.

Who knew? Fantastic sushi Rolls in a vegan restaurant! Definitely going back - good prices too!
Lila is one of our favorite pre-theater dining spots in Sarasota. Always polite and prompt service in a lovely venue with delicious food. My ginger margarita and kale guacamole were excellent and my wife loved her salad. We've already made our next reservation.
