The other day, my coworkers and I tried their delivery service—expected in 40 minutes, but just 5 minutes later it was already on the way, fresh and perfect. Everything arrived super fast and with amazing quality. Highly recommended!“

“Fantastic experience at Simon’s Coffee House! Extremely clean and very well maintained with a cozy and welcoming ambiance. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The food was well prepared with excellent quality ingredients. I had the Mexican skillet. It was absolutely delicious and a very generous portion. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“I Love this Place! I just discovered that it was here last week when someone told me about it. I went by on my lunch break and had a ham and cheese croissant and an iced coffee. It was delicious! I would normally go to Starbucks, but I must say the difference in the quality of food is night and day. This croissant was fresh. I liked it so much. I went by the next day as well and had a prosciutto tomato and cheese sandwich, with a Nutella iced coffee, and it was excellent! What a Gem of a place! I would highly recommend this to anyone that wants a lite selection of quick service food and a a delicious French coffee! I will be back many more times!“

“We've been coming to first watch once a week for 3 years and last week we had the pleasure of having Alyssa as our server. everyone is always great and friendly but Alyssa was hands down the best server we've ever had. The food came out fast and she anticipated all sorts of things for my one year old that made the experience so much better. the food is great and better at this location than any other and the servers are all fantastic.“

“There are more than a few outstanding breakfast/brunch restaurants in Sarasota, Florida. One of them is Station 400 at 400 North Lemon Avenue in downtown Sarasota. Owned and operated by Dean and Kelly Fox, it is open from 7:30 to 2:30 daily and has earned a reputation as the leading go-to destination for brunch in the city. My wife is addicted to Belgian waffles with vanilla bean maple syrup, whipped butter, fruit, cream and toast with jam. I always start with a bowl of McCann's steel cut Irish oatmeal with cinnamon, granola and steamed berries. And I finish with the Foxes' version of traditional Eggs Benedict, called Tuffle Eggs Benedict, with a toasted English muffin, arugula, caramelized bacon, roasted mushrooms and truffle hollandaise sauce with hash browns and toast with jam. Station 400 also has a location at 8215 Lakewood Main Street in Lakewood Ranch.“

“As a member of both the Sarasota Museum of Art and OLLI, I frequently have lunch at Bistro. Although the prices are a bit high, it’s a delightful spot for a delicious meal or coffee with a crisp croissant, scrumptious brownie or corn cookie. I don’t know if the restaurant’s revenue benefits the above cultural entities, which I hope it does, its off-the-beaten-path location and, therefore, limited pool of customers justifies the prices. I have never been disappointed in the always fresh and interesting food or in the prompt service. The Bistro is light and bright, the decor is artsy and welcoming and it’s such a convenient place to go after or before enjoying a cultural activity!“

“Had lunch at Maximillian’s Cafe and honestly it was so good. The sandwiches were delicious, packed with a ton of filling, and the portions were way bigger than expected for the price. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and the bread was really good too. Cozy little spot with a nice atmosphere for lunch. Definitely coming back again! 🥪🌻“

“First watch has been one of our favorite spots for breakfast in Sarasota for many years. This location is great. A little quieter than the downtown location with some nice outdoor seating. The food is always delicious and the service is great.“

“if as a poor European you're visiting the us its hard to find the good food given the abundance of fast food which is too greasy, too salty or way too sugary.here at the selby cafe we found excellent sandwiches. we had a salad and a sandwich with a teatrue its pricey, but its good taste you get for it

Kid-friendliness: our son had the pizzahe was very happy with it“

“So we went twice in a week on vacation everyone at the table was very pleased with the service and food. Their biscuits and gravy are ok but I prefer more sausage. But the works omelet was amazing. The avocado toast was a hit and you have to try the potatoes. We will be back.“

“Food is great. I love the kale roasted carrot salad for breakfast!! So good“

“Our server, Amber, was knowledgeable, professional and put the “S” in service. She made our time very enjoyable.“

“amazing service from Camille and the food was perfect as always“

“This is one of my favs now....2nd time, different location and it hasn't disappointed. The food is very good, just the way you order it. Service is friendly, quick, and pleasant. Definitely a keeper, if you haven't tried, go do so... you won't be disappointed.“

“Great service, atmosphere, and food! Garden Lasagna was outstanding!“

“The food we had was excellent, and we enjoyed talking with the owner who said he has been in business for 21 years. Its important to support small restaurant businesses especially when they serve authentic Italian cuisine and desserts made with fresh ingredients and pride.“

“cheddar broccoli soup......“

“Hands down, the best coffee I have ever had! It’s been months and I’m still thinking about it. What’s it going to take to get you guys up in Northern Virginia?!? 🙏🏼🤎“

“I have enjoyed Blvd Cafe for breakfast and lunch. Love the croissants and latte and both the grilled salmon salad and flank steak with salad were delicious lunch entrees! The owner Mica is gracious and the wait staff hard-working and friendly. Great neighborhood, friendly vibe.“

“All in all it is a typical Wawa. But the thing that makes it stand out is how busy it is and how well the staff handles all the customers. It's situated right next to a Home2Suites. It's in a very good location, only a mile from the beach which is why it's so busy. Great place“

“We generally don’t eat at Panera because some of the other locations have been less than impressive in the past. On a whim, we decided to give this location a try and it was the BEST decision my fiancé and I have made recently! This Panera location ROCKS! Every member of the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their job. The food is insanely fresh, hot, and delicious, and they NEVER skimp on portions/ingredients! The menu items actually come out looking like they do in the advertisements - and they are loaded full of flavor. I recommend one of the new toasted baguette sandwiches; in particular, the Buffalo chicken is to die for! In addition to phenomenal food and service, the location is adorable and convenient; the outdoor seating is very cozy and inviting - you feel like you are eating in a garden. This is our new favorite casual dining spot to hit up at the UTC mall. Definitely check it out if you are in the area, you will certainly not regret it!“

“Very cozy and calm place that gives peaceful Christmas vibes. One thing I truly value is how friendly and polite the staff are. Sometimes the food delivery pick-ups disturb the atmosphere a bit, but that’s understandable — people are trying to survive in a world where AI and machines are taking over. Overall, I recommend stopping by.“

“Great efficient service here. I ordered a you pick two with apple something salad and the upgraded tomato soup. Love the new it seems as if it has more of a tomato base than a green base. My friend ordered a smaller version of the You pick two which is a cool option. She ordered a chicken salad sandwich and a delicious tomato soup each of the items with two selections comes with a side automatically, a delicious baguette, but I’m always careful to ask for the Apple.
