                                                  Another lovely evening at R&T (Thank you, Jeff). We decided on the bar for dinner tonight which was lively. Escargot was the usual excellent. Soup was delicious, but wish it had had a different sausage (not kielbasa-like). Pounded pork tenderloin was a different take and enjoyable. Thanks for a comfy end to the work week.

                                                  One of the best restaurants we have been to in Sarasota. From the food and service to the beautiful ambiance of the outside patio they have. We celebrated my husband’s birthday there and they went out of their way to make it very special with a great table surrounded by heat lamps (it was a bit chilly) to the free dessert of his choice. I highly recommend the mushroom appetizer as well as the watermelon radish halibut! The service can’t be beat as well. Mike our server was the best! He went above and beyond in every way. We will definitely be going back soon!

                                                  My first time there, but it won’t be my last. From the welcome at the door, to being seated at a window table, to service that was very attentive without being overwhelming, The Rosemary and Thyme was just perfect. Now to describe the food. It was excellent. The chef pairs flavors so well. The fried mushrooms were beer battered and perfectly fried. One of the specials was a short ribs with an Asian sauce. Excellent. Didn’t overpower the silky tender beef. Vegetable portions were generous. Katrina was out server and she was lovely. Cheerful, helpful, but not intrusive.
