Best Steak Restaurants in South Bradenton

First visit to Sarasota- we frequent the Fort Myers location more often. Pleasantly surprised by the elevated experience. Haley- our waitress was polite, prompt, friendly - flawless. The food was perfect - an issue we seem to have in FM with undercooked filet was not an issue here. We ordered medium and got medium. Wine selection was good; margaritas were awesome. Would like to see an expended red wine list with Paso Robles wines someday but still good choices imo. Overall a wonderful night and a great experience. Would go back if in this area again.

We ordered the Valentine sweetheart special, which included a three course meal of our choice. I had a king salmon with gnocchi’s and asparagus, and my date had surf and turf, lobster tail, and fillet with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I had lobster bisque for appetizer she had strawberry salad and then we split a lava cake With chocolate and ice cream scoop on top. Everything was very good. Then afterwards he went to the bar and had a glass of wine for a nightcap and then drove home my first time at that place and it’s a gorgeous location on longboat key looking forward to going back again

This was our second time at Oyster River and it did not disappoint. Charles was a terrific server and our god was cooked to perfection. The sunset views were terrific. I especially appreciated the fact that even though it was Valentine’s Day they didn’t pack people in- tables were nicely spaced. I recommend!

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 dined on the outside - the street tables set up to accommodate all the Valentines diners and it worked out perfectly. Although very busy we were waited on by David reasonably fast. The food was fantastic. With all the activity in Sarasota we joked we got dinner and a show (some pedestrians were quite amusing) at HP Always a treat and never disappointed ❤️
