What our guests are saying

Such a treat! Allan was my server and so awesome! I sat at the bar and had great conversation. He recommended an amazing Picanha and elote for a side. Holy... So freaking good! And with good reason. Come here. It's a gem.

A great little restaurant in the heart of downtown Sarasota. Wife and I went for an early 15 yr anniversary dinner. She was so excited by the Gluten Free menu, we pretty much tried as much as we could, and have vowed to return as soon as possible. Food was amazing. So flavorful! Highly recommend this lovely little restaurant.

Wow! This place was absolutely amazing. We came in on a Friday night at around 8pm without reservation and were immediately met by the enthusiastic GM Jordan who made us feel extremely comfortable and welcomed and sat us right away! We then had Jimmy as our server who was an absolute pleasure - he gave amazing recommendations and was extremely attentive and helpful. The sangrias are amazing. Not too sweet. We started with the Cobia ceviche ~ I could have picked up the bowl and drank it it was that good. Then my boyfriend had the NY strip, I had the scallops (per Jimmy’s rec) & we had the elote as a side. It was delicious and well-worth the cost! Highly recommend this new spot downtown!!!
