- JGJeremieGSan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoLovely 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!More infoThe Melting Pot - SarasotaPrice: Expensive• Fondue• Sarasota•4.6
- FFrankNew Jersey •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoDinner was fantastic our waitress Marren did a fantastic job and was very attentive. The wine service was wonderful and great choices. He started with a gnocchi special. That was wonderful. We split that with three people as an appetizer. My wife and I had the linguine Pescatore, which was fantastic. Great pasta, and loaded with seafood. Her friend had the eggplant which was wonderful. Both dishes were so filled that we took leftovers home and there was no room for dessert unfortunately. Their dessert menu is delightful and next time I will have to make room.More infoCafe GabbianoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Siesta Key•4.7
- KkatyVIPChicago / Illinois •12 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe had another awesome evening at Blu Kouzina. After being ushered to an ideal table at the edge of the outdoor porch, we ordered their outstanding taramosalata, and saganaki with figs for appetizers. Both exceeded our expectations as usual! My husband can never resist ordering the lamb giouvetsi…and once again it was the best he’s ever had…and we eat a lot of Greek food. I had the chicken kabob…so juicy and flavorful, that I’ll probably order it again next time! Our server Ivana was wonderful and recommended an excellent Greek red to complement our meal. We’ll be back soon!More infoBlu KouzinaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Sarasota•4.8
