Friends brought us there and told us about the table-side Caesar salad presentation which was cool. My dish was very tasty while one member of our party was a little disappointed. The butternut squash soup was delicious as was the petite filet. I was highly impressed - and I loved the chocolate mousse. It's upscale but not high end.

We love exploring places to eat in Sarasota. We went here for my wifeâs birthday. We had the chefâs special dinner. Pre dinner drinks done by Sean were adapted to our respective tastes. I love Manhattans and he suggested a chocolate bitters in place of my usual orange bitters. Fun difference. Coconut shrimp starter was great. We both had the triple tail (grouper)âone blackened and one with Crab shrimp. Robert, our waiter, had great suggestions. Both entres were wonderful Dinner desserts on this chef menu are shared. My wife had limoncello cake (comped because of her birthday) and I had the bread pudding (arguably among the best I have ever had including in England, the home of bread pudding). The food, the personal service with recommendations, and a quiet place to talk make this clearly a âgo toâ place in Sarasota. We are âhooked!âThank you so much for your wonderful review! We greatly appreciate you taking the time to leave us your positive review! Happy Birthday to your wife and we are so happy you enjoyed the restaurant! We hope to see you again soon!Off the Hook SRQ (941) 923-5570

It was my first time at this tiny Bistro with my husband and two friends and I was happily surprised by the ambience and authenticity. The food was delicious: I had the Sole Almondine special which was fabulous as was the onion soup. The chocolate dessert was sensational. It's tiny which made it all the more charming and of course the waiters were both French. I can't wait to return.

I love this place. Had great lunches and dinners here and it has always been impeccable.Not last night. We had a larger party and were seated in the very back of a fairly empty restaurant. Location and deco are still great and the seating was professional and kind, though there was some unusual smell (moldy overlaid with perfume?). And there were fruit flies. By the dozen. For the entire dinner. You were lucky not inhaling or drinking one. This issue was never recognized. Not like this would be acceptable at a luxury restaurant though at the very least an apology would have been in order. Otherwise service was enthusiastic and mostly professional. With two notable exception:- I could not get a different side for my fish. I did not fully grasp the explanation, though it sounded as if because it would have had cost more. Since when that is an obstacle in a restaurant where you pay $100 per person? Charge a bit more: how much it could have been? - Another member of our party complained that her side was too salty. She got a replacement item but also an explanation that she probably tasted the broth and while itâs understandable why she though it was salty it was not. Really??The wines were excellent and well served and reasonably priced. The food was ok, but really not up to par of most restaurants nearby that are also less expensive. It was well presented but the fish was dry, side dish tasteless. Dessert was really good but it did not make up for the disappointment (even if it was so bitter because of my high expectations)First of all I want to thank you for coming to our restaurant and yes for the most part 99% of the time the food and the service is impeccable but like I have said in the past, we will make a mistake because we are not perfect like the rest of the restaurants and will do everything in our power to fixe it and make it right. I'm sorry the rice was a little salty and the waiter explained to you there must have been to much broth in the rice so he changed it and was told it was ok, things can happen. As far as the seabass no one mentioned it was dry and we would have been more then happy to change it for you if you have said something. I'm not understanding your statement the DESSERT WAS REALLY GOOD! (even it was bitter). As far as the fruit flies, it is time of the season and we have are doors open, I really have to say, being in the restaurant every day I have never seen dozens of them over a table, We a have a company that comes in this time of year, once a week to spray a non toxic to eliminate them as much as possible. Maybe that is what you smelled. As far as making a statement (moldy overlaid with perfume), I can assure that is not recognizable in my restaurant and as a matter a fact we take very high precautions to make sure that does not exist. I'm sure the perfume smell came for the 6 lady's at your table. As a matter of fact you are the only person since I bought this restaurant 4 years ago that has made that statement and everyone else says the opposite and comments how clean it smells in the restaurant and the remodel I have done to the tune of $500,000. Coming here so much its unfortunate you never mentioned some of those good things we have done for our clients, very high end Art, new bathrooms that are gorgeous, new furniture, new china, the level of out glass ware and silver ware. The beautiful chandeliers , 5 new air conditioners and new venting on the new roof to put beautiful clean air through the restaurant. I'm sorry the rice was salty and you have a few fruit flies at your table and when the manager brought the side you wanted, he asked if everything was ok and was told yes .Thank you for acknowledging how the service was enthusiastic and professional. I really hope you find that perfect restaurant in the future as I have been all over the world and haven't found it yet. I wish people would take the time to look at the many very positive reviews before they write there's to see we don't make mistakes often, from number 96 to number 7 on trip advisor in 4 years I think we might be doing something right. You will have to look at the restaurants 1 though 6 rating on trip advisor to see if one of them might be perfect because above us they cant be any better according to the people's choice. When everyone left the manager asked as the group going out the door , how was everything and the group said quote 'everything was great we love this place" WOW this surely doesn't fit your comments. Just for the record your average check before gratuity was $50.00 not $100.00. (644.00 for 12 people). I do thank you spending that. I also really cant understand that as many times you have come here and raved about this restaurant for so many years, how you could trash us like this for one unperfect evening. Thank you.

I joined some friends and we enjoyed a truly enjoyable meal at Lovely Square. The ambience and decor are simple but attractive. The staff was very helpful and accommodating to our requests. The food was delicious. It's not a complicated formula: Buy high quality good, cook it to order, present it well. Lovely Square does this all with a French flair. The prices are are reasonable. I highly recommend you try this relatively new restaurant in Gulf Gate!
