    It was a fabulous Easter Brunch, salad bar with hearts of palm, artichoke hearts, olives, beets, olives and the usual. Shrimp, oysters on half shell, mussels (hot and cold), prime rib, mashed potatoes, pork, pasta bar and desserts. all was delicious. They also had eggs, French toast and bacon - which I didn't even try. I used petit fours as a young adult. I haven't liked ones I have had recently - the raspberry brought me back to the ones I loved. It was their first Easter Brunch, hope they repeat it next year.

    For the price we paid the service was lacking. We waited for our waiter several times and they never cleaned our table of used dishes. Our wait for our drinks was extraordinary long.

    Went back again this year to celebrate our 31st wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint. Everything was terrific!!! Had the boneless short rib and hubby had the salmon. They even gave us a slice of key lime pie to celebrate! Will definitely go back!!

    For a special occasion, this is the best place in Sarasota. We came here to celebrate a birthday and the service and food were outstanding. While a little pricey, it was worth it. Don’t leave without trying the macadamia ice cream pie!
