The "classy", "consistently superb" Continental cuisine served at this "Sarasota institution" has made it the "place to go before the opera" for South African chef Jean-Pierre Knaggs' luxurious takes on classics like rack of lamb; "dependable, sophisticated" service and a "cozy, quaint" room with "understated elegance" make it hard to tell it "used to be a gas station", so all in all fans find the experience "a bit old-fashioned and always wonderful."

Café L'Europe

A "longtime favorite" that's "maintained its quality throughout the years", this "lovely, European-style" cafe is still a "fine place" to enjoy "fabulous" French-accented Continental cuisine as you "sit outside and watch the world go by" on "sophisticated St. Armands Circle"; "Sarasota's grande dames" appreciate the presence of a "gracious" staff that treats guests "with class and dignity", but it's beloved by tourists too, so "expect a wait in-season."

"Awash in history", this midpriced Florida chain's more-than-a-century-old original in Ybor City is known for its Cuban-Spanish cuisine (including a "1905 salad that never fails to delight"), "excellent sangria", "Iberian decor" and "noisy", "vibrant" flamenco show; though some say it's "a bit past its prime", they're outnumbered by fans who find the dining experience at all of them "most memorable", especially at the Sarasota branch, where you can "watch the world from a sidewalk table" on St. Armands Circle.

"Among the better chain steakhouses", these "upscale" cousins of Outback ("who knew?") are "particularly attractive" options, combining "consistently fine steaks" with "a huge selection of well-priced wines" by the glass or bottle; while they can be "noisy" at times, the "elegant" decor and "gracious" service make them "excellent choices for a special occasion" or "to meet and greet clients"; P.S. the Sunday prime rib special is one of the "best deals in town."

"The gold standard for quality" dining in Sarasota, this "see-and-be-seen" New American "never misses a beat", upholding its reputation as a "standby" for "celebrating that special occasion" or "entertaining clients and guests"; a "monthly changing" menu means there's "always something new to try", and while the "classy" experience "can be pricey", it's "worth every penny" thanks to the "professional staff", "plentiful wine list" and "charming piano bar."

Ruth's Chris Steak House

"If you really want a steak", "reward yourself" at one of these links in a "consistently terrific" national chain, where the "melt-in-your-mouth filets" are "served sizzling in butter" to "make them even more decadent" and the "delicious sides" come in "huge" portions; the à la carte pricing can "add up fast" ("go with someone on an expense account to enjoy"), but while a few feel the straightforward decor is a little "dark", most agree "the service gleams."

Chef/co-owner Darwin Santa Maria is the "creative artist" behind this "Peruvian paradise" in Downtown Sarasota, where the "innovative", "delicious" fare includes a "to-die-for" array of "outstanding ceviche"; since the dining room can be "a bit tight", regulars recommend "sitting outside by the waterfall to people-watch" as you sip a "killer drink" ("don't forget the pisco sours!") and ask for "recommendations" from the "charming", "knowledgeable staff."

"Located right on Main Street within walking distance of everything" (including the movie theater), this "comfortable" Sarasota veteran "continues to be a class act" thanks to a "serious" chef/co-owner whose kitchen turns out "innovative, upscale" Eclectic cuisine "with a nouveau twist"; the "easygoing", "hospitable atmosphere" includes a "friendly, attentive" staff, a "comfortable" interior with a "charming bar" and a "great outside patio."
