Went for our anniversary because we loved the old Summerhouse and therefore bought TripAdvisorâs â#1 romantic restaurant in Siesta Keyâ hype about this one. Looking forward to a romantic anniversary dinner, we were disappointed to find that the legendary Summerhouse name and TripAdvisor listing had misled us into booking at a very generic upscale casual restaurant - noisy even half empty, people in T-shirts, not so much as a tablecloth in sight. Not an âoccasionâ place at all, but certainly priced like one. Decent restaurant, good service and a good meal, but thereâs nothing remotely romantic about the place. There are lots of better choices for an âoccasionâ restaurant in the Sarasota area, and there are plenty of casual places that offer much better value. No reason to go back to this one.
7. LongHorn Steakhouse

There are so many outstanding steakhouse chains thriving across the country. During our recent 33-day vacation in Sarasota, Florida, my wife and i discovered two more that weren't aware of. But we are very familiar with Longhorn, a member of the Darden Restaurant Group that has locations from Norridge to Champaign to Murfreesboro to Dalton to Tampa to Sarasota. And we have dined at many of them. We especially enjoy the Longhorn at 2020 Gulf Gate Drive in Sarasota, near the busy intersection of Clark Road and South Tamiami Trail. It features a wonderful setting with a Western theme, big bar with TVs, Western paintings and memorabilia, comfortable booths, great service and a fully satisfying menu. How about lunch for two for less than $30? Eric, our hands-on waiter, was jiffy quick on the lemonade refill and made some very savvy recommendations. Longhorn is a favorite of ours because we prefer going out to lunch rather than dinner if possible and Longhorn features many tasty options with soups and salads and sandwiches, a great value for the money. On our most recent occasion, my wife chose the crispy buttermilk chicken tenders salad, enough for two, with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and croutons. I started with a lobster and shrimp chowder and finished with a shaved prime rib sandwich. The Wild West was never like this.

Nice atmosphere but street at entry is under repair and parking is an issue. The menu was good many varied items. The meals were not priced crazy like many other steak houses. Service was very good. Food was fresh & tasty. The positions were nice. Good job to management keeping this place going during the street repairs.

I went with four of my siblings on the first night of a sibling reunion weekend. Everything was at least very good, and the veal dishes (Veal Parmesan, Saltimbocca, and the nightly veal special with truffles) were excellent. The veal parmesan (a very large bone-in chop) was the best I have ever had. Anywhere. Prices were reasonable, service was excellent, food was authentic and unpretentious. I would return here without hesitation.
4. The Capital Grille

Over the years, my wife and I have visited several locations of the Capital Grille restaurant chain, from Chicago to Washington DC to Sarasota to Denver to Milwaukee to Naples to Tampa to Boston to Lombard to Rosemont. Opened in 2015 in the enormous University Town Center shopping mall in Sarasota, this Capital Grille lives up to the chain's "be wined, dined and dazzled" motto. It is an upscale steakhouse with a chic decor, open kitchen, big bar, booths and swanky surroundings. Robert Nelson, our personable and attentive and punctual waiter, made our lunch break from a full and exhausting day of shopping a very relaxing and enjoyable occasion. My wife had seared salmon. I started with a cup of New England clam chowder, then couldn't resist ordering Capital Grille's signature cheeseburger with cheddar cheese, tomato, lettuce and pickles and French fries. We washed it all down with big glasses of mint lemonade. It all provided enough fuel to keep us running for another two hours in the mall. With 58 locations in 25 states and Washington DC, Capital Grille has emerged as one of the finest restaurant chains in the country.

I have lived in Sarasota for 40 years. I believe Connors is the best restaurant in the area. The food is consistently fabulous, very large portions and the service great and the staff friendly and accommodating.Today I had grilled chicken on mashed potatoes and served with broccoli.My friend had shrimp and grits and said it was THE BEST she ever had.As a bonus the owner was there today, Bo Connor. He spent at least 20 minutes visiting with us at our table. Very impressive.The cappuccino was excellent. I only wish I could have been able to eat their homemade ice cream. One scoop feeds 3 or 4, very generous portion.We both had enough leftover for another meal.I never get tired of Connors!Thanks for the glowing review!
