Parking wasn’t accessible but thankful for complimentary valet! The atmosphere was truly wonderful. Live music but soft enough i could enjoy the instruments, song, and my conversation. The lighting was soft but not dark. There were stairs and an elevator which I found inclusive and a door off the front entrance for those unable to take the steps as well. Service was top notch, friendly, informative, and attentive. I wish I had taken pictures. Beautiful art was displayed throughout. Even the bathrooms were designed well.

The food was perfect and delicious. The service was professional and waitress was attentive. The atmosphere was perfect for a family, romantic evening, or after hours business meeting. I started with the Apple-Pear-Prosciutto Stack with Sage, Pistachio Butter and Parmigiano Reggiano! Mouthwatering blend of fresh, sweet and savory flavor that increased my anticipation for the next course. I followed this with the Smoked Veal Tomahawk, Spiced Apple Chutney and Thyme-Infused Potatoes Au Gratin. The veal chop was cooked to perfection and the sides complemented it with enhanced fall flavors and warm, herby potatoes. We finished off dinner sharing the Goat Cheese Cheesecake with Honey Orange Marmalade, Candied Pecans and Rosemary Apricot Financier. Just delicious! I highly recommend at least one visit if you are in the Sarasota area to enjoy a dinner that offers the best meal, service and atmosphere for those “I need the full experience” dining moments.

What a great spot. The ambiance and decor are awesome we enjoyed some great drinks on the rooftop while we waited for our reservation. The staff was friendly and attentive. I know the menu changes but I definitely recommend the pork Caesar salad, the stacked prosciutto was a disappointment as it was so little and not worth the price and definitely not what I pictured. For main course we wanted to try the Veal tomahawk but they were sold out so I went with the Thai Bouillabaisse and it did not disappoint. Overall great spot can’t wait to go back again

This place is beautiful. Upscale decor. The food is adventurous. I didn’t care for the split pea soup that has a bit of mint it, but I also don’t usually like split pea soup to begin with, I just wanted to give this one a chance. However, the lump of lobster they top the soup with was tasty and worth the $16 itself. The Thai dish, which is a staple, and is on the menu all year long, was pretty tasty. It had one large shrimp, a medium lobster tail, a piece of cod, and a large scallop in a nice curry with some cooked veggies and black rice. The service was great.

The lobster soup is interesting and quite good. The bison briscet is a little tough but carefully prepared. Definitely try the cocktails. especially summer cocktails. If you come to Sarasota, you can come here for a dinner. You will be very happy with the ambiance , decor and service.

Exceptional experience having dinner in a historic building that was once the Sarasota Herald Tribune. The atmosphere was historic and upscale. The food was over the top with our desert having a piece of actual gold leaf to highlight the amazing food. This is a special place for special occasions. Highly recommend!

Amazing meal and experience! We both got the Harrissa Bison Brisket and loved every bite. Chef Brett came out to our table and introduced himself when bringing us the Octopus appetizer which was delicious, light, and a perfect start to our evening. We ended the night with a Salted Caramel Martini and the Banana Pudding dessert which was the perfect sharing size for two. Cannot wait to see the next seasonal menu!

Restaurant located in a beautiful Downtown Sarasota but don’t worry about parking lot they provide valet parking. Fantastic old building with a modern classy decor. There is also rooftop bar. Servers are very attentive but also can answer all the questions about food. The menu is very unique and they change it every few months. The food is not even delicious it’s outstanding it’s a poetry it’s finesse of flavors. We tried Branzino with roasted zucchini, Harissa Bison brisket and Thai bouillabaisse with fresh seafood. For dessert we tried secret garden, pavlova. Absolutely recommended place

A must visit if you're in Sarasota. Valet parking makes it easy. The rooftop bar is too hot for the summer but they have another inside with some great mixology creations. The menu changes quarterly and it's awesome. One suggestion to the chef would be to add side bread to the bouillabaisse seafood dish that always stays in the menu. That wonderful sauce cannot be wasted 😋. Enjoy

I love this place so much. It’s a historical building and so beautifully decorated! The food is 10/10 honestly I haven’t had anything here I didn’t like. Everything is sourced correctly and cared for and the staff is really nice. They have live music a lot too and it’s just an amazing space
