11 Best Steakhouses in Sarasota

“The food and service did not disappoint. My wife had the mahi tuna salad. It was excellent and crunchy as described on the menu I had scallops. They were perfectly cooked and very tender. Service was very good. Everything arrived timely hot, and the waiter did not hover have eaten at hundreds of restaurants and this is one of the better onesnot exceptionally expensive and in a mall but quite good food and service and I highly recommend.“

“Recently visited and enjoyed my TBone Steak. It was so good I finished the whole thing. As usual, it was cooked as I ordered, seasoned to perfection. I also ordered the mushrooms to go with it, as I feel it compliments the Steak. I did not like the Corn on the Cob as the sauce really killed it but hey, that just my taste buds.
I always recommend Longhorn for Steak besides the usual high-End Steak Houses but Longhorn has always had good quality meat.
This location has GREAT SERVICE and I highly recommend.“

“6/30/26 THE BEST! The Flight of Majesty, generous pour wine event, WAS FANTASTIC! Curated wine tasting menu, (6) wines served, with a very tasty, well done, delicious options, wine dinner. Danielle Craig (managing partner), and Amador Monroy (certified trainer of service), sure know how to be successful. A must do again, before it ends Aug 30. Extremely pleased.“

“💖Ate lunch with my son today and the food was fabulous. Our server, Danny C, was wonderful. He was very attentive, friendly , and helpful. A very enjoyable day.“

“Man was a big fan of Ruth Chris on 41 use to go there several times a month until the quality of the food took a nose dive i ordered the stuffed chicken and it was undercooked big time they sent it back for it to come back a second time time still pink in the inside and everyone knows that’s a big no no for chicken and that was just one of many different incidents that turned me away from that particular location.well I’ve going to the new location in Lakewood ranch and boi I tell yeah they reminded me of the good days again chicken cooked to perfection crispy juicy and just down right delicious 😋, crab cakes ribeye and the spicy shrimp perfectly prepared and served every time and I’ve been to this location about 15 times or so haven’t been to the 41 location in years and I hope there doing better over there but I for sure won’t ever find out personally because I’m going to this one every time 🫡“

“Best place to celebrate a special occasion! We were treated like royalty and enjoyed a fabulous meal. Top notch food, several & ambiance. ❤️“

“This was our first visit. I say first because we will definitely be returning. What a great experience. We went on a random Tuesday, so I knew it wasn’t going to be terribly busy (off season bonus!) Amelia, our server, was so friendly and knowledgeable-and just the right amount of attentive. Gave some good recommendations and both our selections were excellent. Steak was done exactly as requested and was, as my husband puts it… like butter. Au just was off the hook. Basically, if you are looking for a casual place to enjoy a really good steak (or anything on their menu), this place is it. Oh and we also visited their butcher counter and brought some of their selections home with us.“

“Dinner was fantastic, but Josh made the entire night. The steak was spot-on, but his service was even better. He was so genuine and sweet the entire time, and honestly one of the funniest servers we've had in a long time. His sense of humor was subtle, perfectly timed, and made us feel like we were in great hands. He checked in exactly when he needed to, kept the vibe light and warm, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever hovering. You could tell he truly enjoys what he does. We left full, happy, and already talking about coming back. If you get the chance, ask for Josh -- he'll make your whole meal better! We will for sure be asking for Josh when we come back!!“

“Came in for a quick lunch and just sat at the bar. Anita was out bartender and she was pleasant. Even asked if we wanted another lemon or lime with our water refills. After a couple of not so good experiences at the longhorn closer to us this was really nice. Thank you Anita and kitchen staff!!“

“This was my husband's first Ruth's Chris experience. Typically, he responds to meals out as "okay" or "good", so I asked how his meal was, and for the first time in our nearly 42 years of marriage, he said "fantastic!" This was the best filet mignon he's ever had. This was my second visit, and you just can't go wrong with the filet! Their heated plates keep the food hot and fresh through the whole meal, and that makes a huge difference! Simply yummy!“

“Jillian is an amazing waitress, who is very attentive and made the meal an enjoyable experience. The food was incredible as always and I would highly recommend stopping in here for lunch or dinner. If you have a chance to have Julian as a server, you’re in for a treat.“
