Best Live Music Restaurants in Lakewood Ranch

Sushi was great with some unique rolls. Server was friendly and helpful. Drinks were good but a little slow coming from bar. 3 rolls and 2 drinks was $110 so a little bit pricey value wise but I guess expected in a mall setting. We would go back.

Great food & service! We enjoyed the filet and ribeye steaks.

We had a 1:30 reservation on Sunday but we found they were putting the food away about 2:30 PM so would advise an earlier reservation to be able to take your time and have a leisurely brunch.

Sage is probably the most beautiful restaurant in Sarasota or its environs, and the professionalism of the staff is the highest level we have seen in the area. Unlike most joints which stop serving by 9:00 PM, Sage serves dinner until 10:00 PM on weekdays and 11:00 PM on Friday and Saturday, with last reservation at 9:30. We walked there in 4 minutes from seeing the Ballet at the Sarasota Opera House, and I called ahead to say the performance was delayed (it was an actual world premiere). Bless them, they kept the kitchen open just for us, the last diners, and we had the best after-theatre experience since we've lived in Florida, like the old days when we lived on the Upper West Side and went to Lincoln Center.

We were looking for a unique restaurant close to I-75, for the drive home from St. Petersburg to Naples. How fortunate that we found Mademoiselle Paris. The escargot was some of the best we’ve had, and the duck breast was absolute perfection. The service was friendly and attentive, and made for a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Highly recommend.
