Best Historic Restaurants in Bayshore Gardens

This was our first time at the restaurant. The food was phenomenal and our waitress Christina was attentive and friendly. We will be back soon!

We had a great pre-Christmas luncheon at Pier 22 and it was wonderful! We had great service and would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Nice view of the water and great company made it even better!

I eat here several times a year because I live in the neighborhood and always enjoy it. Good food, good service, and nice ambiance. It was chilly today, so we sat inside, but on days that aren't too hot (or too cold), the outside seating is lovely because you can see the Ringling grounds.

This was an incredible experience. My husband and I (in our 30's) went on our Friday night date night and made reservations for 7:00pm. They were so accommodating right away and we got an amazing table for two in a private corner. The drinks and food were Outstanding! It's Italian food but authentic Italian. The portions are large enough to fill both of us up. I had the Fish with veggies and polenta and my husband had the Ravioli. They brought us a complimentary raisin bread dessert thing as well as limoncello for us both. We also ordered another dessert, some custard pudding I think? It was so good whatever it was! Highly recommend. We will absolutely be returning. The ambiance was romantic and calm and quiet and very pleasing. Cheers!

We were three couples and we all agreed that this is one of the best restaurants in Sarasota. We had an excellent dining experience in every aspect. The service was attentive and our waitress was personable. The menu is varied and everything was properly prepared and served in generous portions and delicious. We tried the Shrimp Stack, Coconut Shrimp, Spinach Dip, Spinach Salad Bar, Bouillabaisse, Black Cod, Sea Bass, Stuffed Shrimp, Key Lime Pie, Mud Pie, and several different coffees. It was a leisurely dining experience in a comfortable setting. We highly recommend it and will return.
