    This was a special evening for Valentine's Day with a prix fixe menu. Each dish was wonderfully prepared with the exquisite desserts by Pastry Chef Stephanie Boswell and Chef Erik Walker knows how to make a short rib like no one else. The restaurant continues to impress and we love going here.

    Indigenous continues to be our favorite restaurant in Sarasota. We have been 5 or 6 times now and it is consistently excellent. Food is delicious and is comes from a variety of sources. Always fresh and tasty. The service is extraordinary. Although we are only seasonal residents of Sarasota, dinner at Indigenous is always a must for us.

    Eating at Michael’s is a special treat when visiting Sarasota. This time we chose three dishes: the charcuterie board, sea bass, and chopped salad. The charcuterie board was outstanding, and the sea bass with risotto was excellent. To my taste, the chopped salad was not as good. It was overdressed with a somewhat sweet dressing, reminiscent of Russian dressing.

    We thoroughly enjoyed the special dinner and wine tasting at BPPK, featuring the fabulous wines from Diablo Paso. Enrique Torres, the award winning winemaker, was a delight to talk to. He shared his passion for the wines he produces in the Spanish tradition and explained what went into the creation of each of his unique wines. We especially loved his Max and Nico and the albariño. It was a wonderful evening and chef Pettersson paired his menu perfectly with the selections. These monthly wine events are a fantastic way to learn about interesting wineries and sample the chef’s always amazing cuisine. If you haven’t been to By Patrik Pettersson, you are missing a Sarasota culinary treasure.
