    We went to seasons 52 for Thanksgiving dinner. It had been a busy day serving others at our church so we were looking for a comfortable delicious meal for two to unwind. We got exactly that! The food was delicious! Jordan, our server was wonderful, attentive and perfectly organized. The managers were busy in the dining room doing everything from checking on guests to busing tables! The food was hot and delicious and came out at a wonderful pace. Our drinks and dessert were perfect as well. Can’t say as we’ve had a better time at Seasons 52! A perfect end to our Thanksgiving day!

    Columbia is the heart and soul of Sarasota and St. Armandt Circle. It's been there over 50 years and for me it's like going home. The 1905 salad is so wonderful the black bean soup, Cuban sandwich, chicken and yellow rice, paella and so much more oh when the yellow rice, I always love that. It's something different and everyone loves it. I call it the Joe's of Miami Beach - it's the only restaurant in town that they lineup and wait to get into! ❤️🎈🌴

    Great spot on Sarasota Bay for delicious seafood and drinks. The grouper sandwich is the best in the area. The outdoor patio is the best setting, where you can watch the boats wander by or come to be stored in the adjacent boathouse. Plan ahead as reservations are scarce and you’ll face long waits without one.

    I brought my husband here for his Birthday and we had an excellent meal, starting with great cocktails. The Black Tie Margarita was the best I've ever had! The steaks, potatoes au gratin and asparagus were delicious. Melissa gave us excellent service and the atmosphere is lovely. We look forward to our next visit.
