Have gone to dinner there many times over the years. This year food was NOT GOOD. Salads were extremely salty and ribs were uneventful. Quality seems to have gone down since last year. We won’t go back, sadly.

This restaurant is just superb. The place is very inviting with an excellent kids menu. We ordered the blackened mahi mahi tacos, blackened shrimp chopped salad, and a margherita pizza. They were all delicious. My daughter finished the pizza. The staff are also very friendly and accommodating. Thank you for a great lunch.Came back again and had more excellent food.

We had an incredible dining experience thanks to our server, Collin, who was exceptional in every way! His expertise shone through as he offered amazing recommendations, enhancing our meal to the fullest. And the food, particularly the Cuban Sandwich, was simply divine. A truly standout visit!

Extremely unprofessional host.We asked if we could grab a drink at the bar while we waited for the staff to clean up a table outside. The host came by while we were waiting for our drinks to tell us the table was ready and he was going to grab us some menus. 10 minutes passed and he never came back to us. I went up to the front to see what was going on. The host then told us that someone else had given the table away and we would have to be put on the 20-min waitlist if we wanted to sit at a table outside.Totally understand that there are multiple staff on site and miscommunications happen. What’s unacceptable is not coming to let us know that it happened and just ignoring us until we confronted him about it.When I told him that we would’ve have appreciated some communication about the lost table, his excuse was that he thought we were going to stay at the bar because we didn’t follow him to the front while he grabbed menus for us. Not once did he apologize and own up to the situation. This is not the level of service I expected to be receiving at a Tommy Bahama.

Yummy food and great service. I requested a table in a quiet area and they accommodated for my mom and I. The spaghetti squash meal was unique and delicious.

We were a table for 2 on Sunday. I ordered grilled chicken & mango salad and roasted brussels. Chicken in my salad was way to dry and mango was not ripe, you can see on the picture, it looks also not tasty. Brussel sprouts were overroasted and to sweetMet some folks on the way out, asked them what they thought and they said... That was so disappointing. Have to agree.

Excellent blood orange margarita to start. Started with Asparagus Fries and Fried Brussel Sprouts (both good but quite filling). Then Bungalow Salad and Macadamia Nut Crusted Fresh Fish mains. The fish was nice but again quite filling (simple fried or grilled fish would've been a lighter option, but I don't think that was on the menu). Attentive service. Great location (close to Lido Beach).
Dinner for 4, the menu is not very extensive, they have a kids menu.The atmosphere is pleasant and the service is good.I think the bread is the best ??The food is acceptable and reasonably priced except for some dishes.

We have been coming to St. Armand’s Circle in Sarasota for the last 20 years … and have NEVER had a meal as deserving as leaving an honest review, despite trying almost all of the restaurants on the circle!We had the Macadamia-nut Crusted Snapper and the Spaghetti Squash with Grilled Chicken. Though these meals are very different, my father and I (picky eaters!) were blown away by our own and tasting each other’s meals.Overall, we were left mind blown by our time at Tommy Bahama, from the bread and cinnamon butter to our drinks to our entrees. We will definitely be back and never neglect it the way we have before.Also, shout out to Mea for her INCREDIBLE service. She made sure to let us know that ANY adjustments to the meals requested could be completed by the chef … which is so important for many people.Don’t miss out on Tommy Bahama!
They ran out of what we wanted but their menu has so many options that choosing something else was not a problem! I got the Thai Shrimp. The coconut shrimp is truly the BEST I’ve ever tasted. The service and music were both fantastic! It was our first visit and we will certainly be back to experience another meal bursting with flavors! Thank you!
