Michael's on East (MOE) is one of the best fine dining establishments in Sarasota and has been in business for nearly 40 years. Ive been a customer for nearly 30 of those 40 years and despite its maturity, MOE is still hot, hopping and a crowd pleaser for those who enjoy great food, wines and service.
During its nearly four decades, MOE has been wowing patrons with its fine cuisine, decor, and outstanding service. Don't be surprised if you see actors, comedians and musicians who might be performing at the Van Wezel during the winter season, sitting next to you because the concierge at their hotel recommended MOE as one of the desirable restaurants for a sensational meal, wine and service.
MOE is rich in Sarasota heritage and is the perfect choice to celebrate a special occasion with that very special guest or guests. It's a delight in every way.

My wife and I Absolutely loved our 2nd wedding anniversary dinner here. Our server Angelica was amazing. Everything she recommended from cocktails appetizer and entrees. Every thing was cooked to perfection. We got mussel's to start and they were very fresh.I got the sea bass with the lobster risotto and let me tell you I wanted to lick my plate clean!My wife got the pompano filet with the gulf shrimp. We finished off the night with creme brulee and the peanut butter bomb. Both very good also. We will be back!
