★★★★★ 5.0 ricardo madruga · Jan 2026

One of the greatest meal that I had in Sarasota. The coconut shrimp was amazing. It was perfect. The key lime pie was the perfect amount of lemon and sweet. Andy and Kaitryn serve us with an amazing and friendly service. They guide us around the menu, helped and answered all our questions. I highly recommended this restaurant. And if you here, ask for those two servers. They are amazing.

While on vacation we recently dined at this location again after having a prior positive experience there in Oct. We’ve always loved the fun Tommy Bahama restaurant food and atmosphere and we are also fans of their store merchandise. This dining experience however was less than memorable. I ordered the “lump blue crab cakes” and they came to the table as more of a flat patty crab spread, there was not one lump of crab to be found anywhere. What a total disappointment. We also ordered the scallop sliders with specific instructions to leave one of them without the sauce. The scallop slider plate arrived and they were all covered with sauce. We addressed it with the waitress and she acknowledged that it was a mistake then asked us to pick one of the sliders up off of the plate and hand it to

This was my first visit at the new location. I had been to the old one many times in years past. The restaurant is beautiful, and the vibe is upscale yet relaxed. We had the ahi tuna tacos and tortilla soup for starters. Tortilla soup is the best I’ve ever had, I was glad to see it still on the menu and same as before. I miss the warm, fresh baked bread though. There is an option to buy biscuits, but it says they have pimento cheese and I’m not a fan. We had the rib eye and filet entrees. I will say they cooked a medium well filet so well, it was perfect!! We took home a chocolate dessert (I cannot remember the exact name of it) & it was amazing! Service was a little slow but the restaurant was packed; and the servers were friendly.

Nice experience at the new Tommy Bahama location and our waitress was super nice, I wish I remembered her name but she was blonde and very sweet so 5 starts to her! We went for my mother in laws birthday and the food was tasty, a great price and arrived quickly! I highly recommend the miss sunshine drink, it was incredible and our family enjoys the seafood pasta as well! I liked the mango salad and added chicken as the pineapple crème brûlée is a must! We have been here many times and will be back! Again our waitress was awesome and if you worked on the 14th of oct in the evening and served a birthday party of 6 you were amazing and so sweet <3

We came hoping to enjoy happy hour deals. We were sat in the back patio area, which was not an area included in the happy hour prices. Fair enough, we didn’t make reservations, and the seating was limited in the bar area. They did try to reseat us in the bar area. So we ordered a couple drinks and paid our tab. They were very understanding and nice about why we didn’t stay. We will probably come back now that we know how it works.
