- JJacklynDetroit / Eastern Michigan •9 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe Columbia restaurant is always a winner! We had a fabulous meal and Jack was an exceptional waiter. We love the food, the atmosphere and the value. My husband always starts with the exceptional black bean soup, I had the empanadas yum! We both had Grouper. Rounded out our meal with key lime pie ( a generous slice) and the tres amigos churros, delicious 😋 we highly recommend and we will be back!More infoColumbia Restaurant - SarasotaPrice: Moderate• Spanish• Sarasota•4.8
- JJamesNew York City •225 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoIncredible dinner! Grouper bites and Category 5 shrimp appetizers were as good as it gets. The delicious fishcamp chowder is almost a meal in itself. Finally, the lobster tacos also were great. I apologize f this sounds like I own the place. My wife and I are three times a year customers who simply love this place.More infoDry Dock Waterfront GrillPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Longboat Key•4.9
- JjoeIndiana •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoService was exceptional - attentive, quick, friendly, and made certain all was well. We had to wait about five minutes longer than our reservation, no big deal considering how busy they were. Regardless, they brought over two glasses of champagne to apologize for the minor wait was really a surprise and not needed or expected. We ordered a few sushi rolls and they were delicious with the exception of one. We didn’t really care for it--our server notice we weren’t eating that one and asked if we liked it we said not our favorite. He took it away and brought back shrimp cocktail to teplace that dish... again not needed, very surprised and impressed! They certainly went above and beyond to make certain we had a great evening. The ambience there is a really nice, however, the noise level is pretty high. Next time, weather permitting, we will try to sit outside on one of the patios... overall, an excellent experience very impressed. Delicious food, great service. PS Get the carrot cake.More infoOcean Prime - SarasotaPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Sarasota•4.7
