I had the pleasure of discovering this restaurant while in town from Chicago for business, and I’m so glad I did! As I was looking at the menu, the owner, Michelle, kindly approached me to see if I had any questions, which made me feel immediately welcome. I decided to step inside and try the special of the day.
Faith, my server, was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to accommodate all my requests. The Caesar salad and filet I had were among the best I’ve ever tasted—truly exceptional.
If you’re just looking for typical hotel food, stay there. But if you want an outstanding meal paired with warm, attentive service, you must come to Element. I would gladly return to this town just to dine here again.
Thank you for such a memorable experience!

Had the Scottish Salmon sandwich, some of the best sandwiches I’ve had, ate it in under a minute. Also got the cheesesteak sandwich, and the steak was delicious

We had an absolutely phenomenal lunch at the lounge last week. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm, smiles that set the tone for what turned into a delightful afternoon.
We ordered the burgers and they were cooked to absolute perfection. Probably the best burgers in Sarasota and the price point can’t be beat!!!! Only $12 for prime 😱
Juicy and so flavorful the buns were fluffy and soft. The atmosphere was cozy and polished perfect for our lingering conversations over lunch. Our service was attentive without ever feeling rushed.
If you’re looking for a lunch spot that delivers on quality, comfort and old-school charm with modern twist look no further than this place… we can’t wait to come back for more.

Came here for our anniversary on 11/3 and had a blast! Food was spectacular and the service was great. They treated us to a very special table where we were greeted by the chef himself! 10 out of 10! Everything was tasty, but for us the Highlights were the steak toast and the oysters! We will definitely be back!

Great atmosphere. Very disappointed in the bartender who made zero effort to interact. Even a busy bartender makes an effort.

This is true dining. The food is always exquisite with decident flavors. Some of the best food we have ever had. The salmon I had tonight was cooked perfectly, which included carrots & turnips. Absolutely delicious. I’ve also had the pork chop, my friend enjoyed the filet mignon, my husband had shrimp linguini …all delicious. Even the desserts are great. Try the crème brûlée. The service is top knotch. Our waiter, Michael, was excellent. He k ew the menu as though he created it himself. He offered suggestions, was attentive & personable. He even brought a small cake for my friend’s birthday. There are many other servers who take care of your needs. It is the best service ever. I say this without hesitation: it is the best food & service around town& well worth the visit here. You won’t be sorry.

WOW!!!! Second time there and was great again! The service was fantastic and so were the cocktails! The bartender recognized us from over a month ago which made it even better. I would highly recommend stopping in for amazing cocktails....the limoncello ice cubes are to die for!
We had a great experience at The Lounge at element. Our bartender, Alexander, was excellent! He was very kind and attentive. He also made really good Old Fashioned and Negroni Drinks. The Carpaccio appetizer, and the Tuna entree were also very good. I would highly recommend this lounge.
