Best Date Night Restaurants in Rotonda

Had an amazing server Sebastian, everything was perfect. More than exceeded expectations of quality in hospitality and food. Definitely a place to go to enjoy beautiful food and people. Very clean and our course was properly spaced out and presented wonderfully.

Ocean Prime has wonderful food and service. Rebecca was awesome! It was our anniversary and we were greeted with a glass of complimentary champagne when we entered. We sat in the outside section that is covered and has screens, ceiling fans and heaters for all types of weather. I’m not sure how warm it would be on a warm summer evening, but it was perfect last night. The noise level where we were seated was fine, but as we left we noticed the noise inside was quite loud. There were alot of people at the bar which probably contributed to that. As a senior, I’m not sure sitting inside would be pleasant for those that may have difficulty hearing. Our view was good but they are beginning to construct a large condo building right next door to the restaurant. So I have concerns about the view while they continue to build and am unsure what it will look like when the construction is complete. And while everything was almost perfect, the price is also out of this world. For 2 people to have a couple of drinks, one appetizer, 2 mains with sides and 2 desserts, and parking, the price was almost $500 before tip. All that said, it was a wonderful anniversary dinner. Thank you Ocean Prime!

We've been to many Cooper's Hawk restaurants but this was our first visit to Sarasota. We were seated when we arrived on time for our reservation. The wine tasting room was busy but quiet. The restaurant is beautiful. Our server, Duncan, was excellent. We tasted the wine of the month but decide to order the Sangria this time. We had 4 different entrees and everyone was very pleased with the meal. The short rib dinner was excellent with the most tender beef. We will be back!

It was our first time there. We were so happy with all aspects of our experience. It’s a fun, classy vibe. The design and decorative choices are perfectly appointed. Our server Angela was so knowledgeable and assisted us in moving through our menu choices. Every suggestion she made was spot on. Her timing and attention to detail was much appreciated. The food was incredible, each course was delicious and the pistachio olive oil cake with gelato was over the top, wow. Matt the manager stopped by and we had a great conversation with him. Overall a 5 star experience.

Seasons 52 is always one of our favorites for dependably delicious food with an eye toward healthy choices. The steaks were fantastic, as were the wood-grilled scallops. The mini-indulgences add the perfect bit of sweetness to the end. Service was impeccable. The wine prices seemed a little high to me, but maybe that's the norm these days. The "high energy environment" is a bit noisy for older people, so maybe try to get seated near the edges. Overall, still one of our favorites.
