- LLisaFort Lauderdale •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoIf you want authentic Spanish/Cuban food, Columbia is the place to go in Sarasota. We tried a number of things from the menu, chopped tomatoes, Cuban black bean soup (vegan), stuffed shrimp, key lime pie, and white chocolate bread pudding. These items, along with the crispy bread and an Andulusian Gimlet with fresh strawberries were fantastic. Our waitress has quite friendly and extremely prompt, which added to the overall experience. We will definitely be visiting again and hoping to have a cozy table inside. We were seated on the sidewalk (which was the only availability when we made our reservation), and the constant parade of cars, people, and dogs often distracted us from the wonderful meal before us. Note to self: reserve early, this restaurant is extremely popular!More infoColumbia Restaurant - SarasotaPrice: Moderate• Spanish• Sarasota•4.8

- GGeorgeNew York City •5 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 19, 2024Michael the manager was great. He was very personal and attentive. He really made up for a very negative experience we had at another local restaurant earlier in the week. The food and the service were great and overall a good experience. We especially liked the white table cloths on all of the tables. A very classy atmosphere.
