位於Sarasota​的優質浪漫晚宴餐廳

Lovely time. Always a nice experience being at the Melting pot. I didn't realize the fix menu for valentine had extra fees in it depending on probably the dessert. It is a bit pricey for it, but the ambiance makes up for it!

Superb prix fixe menu for Valentine’s Day. One distinctive and very positive feature of the meal: Portion sizes were just right for a four course meal: Each course’s quantity was satisfying but not excessive. As a result, by the end of the meal, we felt pleased, not stuffed (thankfully). Also, each dish was flavorful, inventive yet relatively simple. The restaurant’s vibe was lively and interesting. (Also, the Malbec we ordered was very good and reasonably priced (for a restaurant!).)

This remains our absolute favorite restaurant anywhere in the world. We had Tuna trio, Seabass, mousse in chocolate shell and my husband had paella. Every bite was scrumptious with the best flavoring. Our pear and Manhattan martinis were also fabulous. The waiter was beyond the best as we celebrated year 55 of engagement. He recognized it, had a card and rose for us and a free dessert. What a wonderful dining experience.

Eating at Michael’s is a special treat when visiting Sarasota. This time we chose three dishes: the charcuterie board, sea bass, and chopped salad. The charcuterie board was outstanding, and the sea bass with risotto was excellent. To my taste, the chopped salad was not as good. It was overdressed with a somewhat sweet dressing, reminiscent of Russian dressing.

Really great food selection here. We sat outside and we were there early enough for half priced wine which was great. Service was nice, but I think our server was a little young and shy. Didn’t really provide a lot of details, but was still a very nice server. I’m probably being overly picky with that. Highly recommend! We will be back.🔙
