Brine Seafood Raw - Sarasota

We have ventured to this place a few times. The food is always outstanding but the service is hit or miss. This last visit, our food came out before we received our drink order due to a backup at the bar, and our drinks came half full. Try the lambmeatballs appetizer. The whisky list is long and there is a good wine list too. Indoor and covered outdoor seating available. We went on a weekday evening and did not need reservations. Parking available.

Stopped here for lunch one day during the week while we were in town. We enjoyed our meal here. I had the Coffee Old Fashioned and the Grilled Pineapple Spicy Margarita to drink. The old fashioned was just OK, but I really liked the Grilled PineappleSpicy Margarita. Just the right amount of spice for a cocktail. Our table shared the Charred Octopus and a half dozen oysters tostart. The oysters were fresh and our table enjoyed the Kumamotos the best. I had the Crab Cake Sandwich as my main and therewas a good amount of crab in it and not too much filler. Just what you're looking for in crabcake. The fried chips were also agood accompaniment to the sandwich.

Love the food and the service was great! Definitely recommend the **** Mary for brunch. The crab cake sandwich was the best I?ve ever had and they also have other choices for those who don?t love seafood. My favorite thing is that you can order the rawoysters a La carte so you can mix it up and they are soooo fresh never frozen !

We walked in 30mts before they closed, and they never made us feel rushed. The service was outstanding the minute we walked in the door. Jillien was our server, and she made our first experience absolutely memorable. The food was delicious, we orderedCalamari to start. And we tried the Grouper special, Crab cake sandwiched and Lobester Carbonara. Everything was excellent,we'll definitely be back.

Excellent lunch with a friend! We had Oysters Rockafeller as appetizers (they were to die for!! My Cousin on Virginia's Eastern Shore makes the best and these tied! . We had Cream of Crab Soup (Maryland style delicious the owner, chef is from Maryland.He is hands on and came by our table to say hello and Seafood Cobb. Fresh, Scrumptous! We recommend everyone here!!! BRAVO!!!
