- RRandyVIPTampa / Central Florida West •87 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoSat outside at lunch at Duval's. A very pleasant experience -- delicious food, excellent service from Raechel, and very reasonable prices. Lots of good stuff on the menu to choose from. I had the Shrimp Po-Boy 1/2 sandwich and chowder, quite the bargain at $13.50. My wife enjoyed her grill shrimp, too. Quiet setting outside. Only negative: $14.50 for a Vodka Gimlet. We will definitely go back, but, skip the cocktail.More infoDuval's Fresh. Local. Seafood.Price: Expensive• Seafood• Sarasota•4.7
- PPaulGreater Boston •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThe service was outstanding, and remarkable, due to the specifics of this particular night. Our group was at Bavaro's in Sarasota during a busy holiday week, and on a night when the restaurant was a little understaffed, yet filled to capacity with patrons. Even the food met the standard that we have come to expect from Bavaro's. I tip my hat to you Bavaro's.More infoBavaro's Pizza Napoletana & Pastaria-SarasotaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Sarasota•4.7
