We had dinner here the night we booked our wedding. They offer amazing, sustainable seafood but don't miss out on the parmesan beignets! It's upscale but 1000% worth it.
This was a real contender for the wedding since it boasts some of the most breathtaking views in Sarasota. And yes, the Ringling we're talking about is the circus guy. If you're into history and art, stop here!
A fun, casual spot for great seafood and cheap, stiff drinks. It's the kind of place with bibs. They have a great happy hour -- $7 for a dozen oysters!
Said to be some of the most beautiful beaches in the US. If you have time, we definitely recommend a few hours here!
A middle of the road (price-wise) restaurant for great food (especially brunch!) and delicious craft cocktails. It's an easy walk from the hotel too.
The best spot for walking around, shopping and grabbing a bite to eat. Get the crab chowder and a mojito at Tommy Bahama (seriously).
