Restaurants near Tropicana Motel

We come down to Sarasota 1 or 2 times a year and one of our favorite places to dine is Dry Dcok Waterfront Grill. Tonight we had a table overlooking the bay. The service was great. Food outstanding as usual. I had Tuscan cream sauce over linguine with grouper. My husband had the grouper boathouse tacos. Both were delicious. The grouper is always fresh. Also had the lobster bisque, very good! Can't wait til our next dinner there!

Waiter was amazing. Definitely had our best interest at heart both in menu choices, and time schedule. Food came out perfectly as expected and the patio was gorgeous.

Family dinner- food was well prepared including market fresh lobster, Cajun chicken linguine,grilled chicken tenders with fries,Mac and cheese, grilled trout, and flounder with coconut shrimp. Neighboring table was loud with celebration was the only negative.

Thank goodness it was a lot less salty than our last visits from over a year ago! For years I complained about them using too much salt (as bad for you as sugar). We finally just stopped going when they still oversalted every single dish! This time we tried them again and as usual, I asked for low sodium. The cheese rolls were still salty on top, but the salmon bowl was not....thought they did also put the dressings and condiments on the side for me. I preferred the condiments/dressings on the side to use sparingly. Having high blood pressure is more the norm today so IMO, all restaurants need to be cognizant of the sodium aspect. The waitress was very good and the pace of the meal was too. The food was great and my sp Cod was humongous and tasty! We will be back!
