Vino Bistro of Sarasota -Food CA (Near Sarasota)

Local Help Karaoke with Noreen on Thursday evening was fun. The singers were incredible & many sounded professional. Family friendly restaurant with great food. Jamaican Jerk dry wings with Greek salad was delicious! Waitress was on top of taking care of my iced tea being filled & was super nice. Ordered a cauliflower crust meat pizza to go. YUM! Loved playing a game of pool which I havent done in years.

Kaila Johnson The food was overall great. I ordered the bbq shrimp and grits and it was excellent. The crab cakes and voodoo balls were also really good. The chicken and waffles were disappointing. The waffles were perfect, but the chicken tasted like it had been double fried in funnel cake batter (greasy and had way too much going on). The drinks were amazing and so was the service (shoutout to Athan)! It’s a nice venue with a cool vibe. We will definitely be going back ☺️

Donna Newman Reminds me of my childhood meals. Authentic Southern Cooking!!! Family owned with generations of recipes that are made with love. I have never eaten anywhere that reminded me so much of home.❤️ The turnip greens, macaroni & cheese, yams, baked beans, fried okra and cornbread taste just like my Mamas cooking. Mama Dots fried chicken reminds me of my Great Aunt...she cooked platters of fried chicken every Sunday. The food here is so familiar and comforting. Other favorites are fried catfish, fried shrimp, hush puppies, rice & gravy, banana pudding. You will be greeted by the sweetest ladies that take great pride in their food, traditions and enjoy serving others. You will leave with a full belly and a full heart❤️

Ryan Orlosky A hidden gem, off the main stretch of St. Pete. We walked in without a reservation and were seated outside - vibes inside were strong! With a limited menu, our group had almost everything. Ramen was excellent and flavorful; we also had the sake tasting. Prices were a bit steep and smaller portions, but overall quality was good and great for a date night/treat. Reservations are recommended to be able to sit inside.

Chipadee McCartney What an incredible experience we had at Blossom and Brie! From the moment we got there I knew the night was going to be magical! The peaceful walk around the property was so enjoyable. We were met by 3 Sandhills Cranes who have taken up residence on the property. We chatted with Rodney, the owner, and he gave us lots of information on the farm and the animals. Once at our seat, we were met by Abigail, our server for the evening. She was pleasant, attentive, efficient and did not rush our dining experience. We started with some refreshing mocktails, The Blossom, with fresh mint, strawberries, lime juice and ginger beer as well as a Summer Lavender Spritzer, blueberries, lavender syrup, lemon juice and soda water. The food was phenomenal! Apple Salad and Heirloom Tomato Salad to start, Beef Bourguignon and Cavatelli Pasta for main and Apple and Boysenberry al la mode for dessert. The Americano coffee was delicious too. The atmosphere is amazing and the view was spectacular! Definitely a must if you are in SWFL!
