eat here Sarasota

Great bartender on Top Deck. Food and service very good. Bad reviews on internet had us worried. Did they eat at the same place?

Great restaurant specializing in small/shared plates, everything we had was delicious from the "heart attack hot-dog" to the veggie pizza to the special of the day, fresh mahi-mahi. Food is simply good!

I was excited when I ate here. The caramel popcorn with cayenne pepper was delicious, and we got a free cheese pizza with veggies for happy hour (admittedly, we only drank water, but we were on a budget and going to order actual food). It was stereotypically hipster, but it was charming. I was going to order a salad. The "titanic" wasn't available without meat (I'm a vegetarian), so I thought I ordered the other salad. Apparently I didn't, and ended up waiting twenty minutes until the others finished their plate. I got a few bites from it, and they were decent, but it was mostly gross meat stuff. I didn't bother re-ordering the salad. Total bill came to $12 USD. I'd try it again, but I hope they learn from that lesson.

Not Dog Friendly-- I've eaten here in the past --nothing spectacular . They do have plenty outdoor seating. I arrived for dinner on a Sunday, not busy, and brought my Brittany Spaniel with me. The outside seating is very empty and I ask to be seated outside. I am told "they have no place for him". Completely unacceptable given that I have seen dogs there and that much higher end restaurants in the downtown area welcome dogs, Selva and Medetteranneo and Bijou to name a few. Host spoke to me like I was a tourist, guess they don't need my business and am glad to take it elsewhere and tell my friends. For all dog owners out there, forget this place.
