Wow! What a treat! Friends brought us here on a Thursday night. I had called the day before to check on some dietary restrictions, and the chef assured me I’d be all good. That’s because they make everything to order, just like in Europe.As promised, Chef Jeremy was able to make pretty much anything I wanted tailored to my needs.I started with the sea bass ceviche (daily special) that was the best ceviche I’d ever had – light, flavorful, with just a hint of sweetness. My dining companions said the plantains served with it were amazing. They also had the toasted romaine salad (daily special) and roasted mushrooms, which they loved.I then had the sea scallops done specially for me – the scallops were huge and everything on the plate melted in my mouth. My companions had lamb and sea bass – and no one had a single morsel of food left on their plate! They were nearly clean enough to back on the shelf. 😊After a meal like this, we couldn’t bear not to try desert. So I had the poached pear, and they had the banana bread pudding tart (yes, lit it on fire when serving), and cherry cobbler with caramel ice cream. Every bite was savored and gone.There probably is not a better restaurant in Sarasota. And it’s not just the food that makes this place special – our server Chris was funny, attentive, and followed our meal pace. Chef Jeremy made himself available for questions.To top it off, the prices are reasonable – making the whole experience feel even more value-laden. My mouth is watering just writing this post.If this restaurant were close to where I live, I’d eat there every week!Afterwards, Chris took us next door to their speakeasy, which I’ll review separately.Don’t miss this gem!
