Restaurants near Courtyard Sarasota University Park / Lakewood Ranch

We celebrated our anniversary and it was a delicious meal for. appetizer to dessert. The service was really good too. The only thing we did t care for was the broccolini which was undercooked.

Our server Chris was very attentive, and gave us time to catch up on conversation since I had been out of town for a family event. He quickly took care of an incorrect delivered order. We all had the 8” pizza and Caesar salad and all very good!

Just when I thought Selva UTC could not impress me more than they have, they add new items to their menu!!! The sauce with their new shrimp cocktail is amazing!! The flavors are so unique you will still be talking about it days later. Trust me! Oh! It wait till you see the presentation. Well done Selva! We love their consistency. We are always warmly greeted. Justin and Michelle and Mario make our evening perfect from the minute we walk through the door. No detail is left out. The food is consistently amazing perfectly pictured plating and the most imaginative combo of flavors. Great cocktails and wines. This place is the darling of the UTC area.

A perfectly romantic Anniversary dinner date. What a lovely setting and overall experience. The staff is sweet and welcoming! We enjoyed our evening here and can’t wait to go back to try the other menus.

It is tomahawk tuesday, which is big enough for two. Came with two sides and two salads or soup, and two dessert. We had the flemings potato’s, which were incredible. Similar to au gratin potatoes, except they had a light cream sauce with chopped jalapeños, and a jack cheese topping. Amazing!!’ We also had asparagus, which is asparagus and how can you ruin it? For dessert we had one piece of New York style cheesecake with fresh, strawberries and strawberry wine, drizzled, and one piece of carrot cake that was unbelievably delicious they put the calories next to the menu options, which is a bummer, because the carrot cake was 1250 cal!!! One of the reasons why our bill was high as we both had a margarita before dinner and then ordered a bottle of wine with dinner. We met the general manager who is super gracious, and came over and checked on as many times We both highly recommend They did have an extensive seafood menu, but we both decided to do steak tonight. Oh by the way all the steak is flown in fresh from the Midwest and never frozen.
