Best Historic Restaurants in Longboat Key

Excellent food and service in a nice romantic setting. Great attention to food allergies :)

One of the best experiences I’ve had in awhile. Started off with the edamame and salmon crispy rice appetizer. The edamame had amazing flavor with a lemon touch to it. The sushi was outstanding and the service was top notch.

Normally everything is outstanding but tonight the service was less than expected. Ordered prime rib and baked potato with butter and sour cream instead of mashed on the plate as an upcharge and a side of creamed spinach. Received mashed on the plate and a baked potato with no butter, no sour cream but a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese. The server when she realized that it should not be there brough a plate to scrape it off and it came off very easy as one big solid lump. The waiter never came back to ask if we wanted the lava cake that generally takes 20 minutes to make. As a result, we didn't get dessert. He seemed like he had served us before but I guarantee that was not the case.

Food excellent as usual. Closed patio offers a lovely water view although a bit noisy.

Dinner was amazing. The Caesar salad was truly the best I have ever had. I ordered shrimp with linguini which was delicious. The pasta was not overcooked but perfectly cooked. Our waitress was excellent. Chef Antonio was very gracious . This establishment is a real winner.
