What DonH doesn't like about Columbia Restaurant:
It was overall a 3. Can’t compare to the one in Tampa. It was our 35th anniversary and dinner was ok, not over the top. Waiter was alright! We had to ask for more tea twice and ask for bread halfway thru our meal. Coming from Ft Myers, I was a little disappointed with my cannelloni yet her grouper was very good. View all feedback. What MarkE likes about Columbia Restaurant:
The food and service was excellent. Fun location too...spend some time before dinner walking around St Armond Cir looking at all the shops, then had a wonderful dinner. Afterwards, took a leisurely stroll on Lido Beach. Beautiful evening. View all feedback.

read moreColumbia Restaurant in Sarasota is a popular dining spot with mixed reviews. Some guests found the service slow and meals to be just okay, while others had amazing experiences with attentive staff and delicious food. The classic ambiance and outdoor seating are highlights for many, with fresh bread and excellent service making for a memorable dining experience. Some recommend trying the Columbia Salad and Seafood Paella, while others raved about the lobster dish and sangria. Overall, a visit to the Columbia Restaurant is highly recommended for a taste of classic Florida dining.
Our waiter was very slow, did not ask why the small portion wasn't eaten. Food was terrible!!!
We originally had reservations for 7pm but decided we would try to eat earlier, which the restaurant was happy to make happen. The food is spectacular and the s...
