Best Live Music Restaurants in Siesta Key

Went to Rose and Ivy for a birthday dinner and am very pleased we did. The resturaunt is very itself is very inviting when you enter and the greet staff was very friendly! We had a group of 5 and the table was very comfortable with plenty of room. We all ordered and old fashioned and appetizers, the grilled octopus was absolutely amazing! For my main i had the Korean pork chop witch was equally impressive. Everything was so tasty and the portions were great. It was a great evening and we will definitely be back

our waiter marley was excellent and attentive and meeting christopher the chef was a super plus. the food was excellent, the rose delicious and the rooftop bar was very nice to relax and have a cocktail.

We live in a tourist area with a huge number of restaurants but Michael's on East can always be counted on to provide high quality delicious food and impeccable service. We had a most memorable evening with them welcoming us back by name and going out of their way to mix an unusual cocktail that is not typically ordered. It was delicious. I particularly enjoy the epicurean menu which changes monthly. Sitting in the lounge for happy hour is also a nice friendly experience,

Second visit, this time for the set menu on Christmas Day. A wide selection was available, including a halibut special. The lobster bisque was excellent, as was the duck a l’orange. The latter was better than the usual dish, since the sauce was served on the side, leaving the skin crispy, but the inside tender and moist. The halibut was also very good. In both cases, the portion size was very generous. Overall, an excellent experience and great value.

Second time dining at A&C and again, the food, wine, beer, service, and ambience were all five stars. One of my pet peeves about restaurants is the noise level, but somehow they have engineered it so we were able to speak in normal conversational tones despite it being a very busy Monday night. I was impressed with our waitress, Lexi, as well as the manager who stopped by to make sure we were pleased with everything. We traveled 50 minutes from Saint Petersburg, but will gladly do that again.
