Best oysters in Sarasota hands down. Yes it's a bar but they have quality oysters in Sarasota. Bartenders are the best!!!!

3/27-sat outside. Service was outstanding. No displayed prices on draft beer and found out that a Big Top Amber Ale cost $10, while wine was $8 a glass. Not sure that I ever paid more for a draft beer than a wine pour in Sarasota. Food was OK. Did not receive an itemized bill when paid and I am not happy when restaurants do not share it. Not our type of food and beer is way too expensive to return.

ABSOLUTELY the MOST RUDE OWNER I’ve ever encountered!!!!The restaurant was completely EMPTY.I brought my FULLY trained ESA registered and trained dog with me for outside seating and was told I had to leave because my dog was in a down stay and the server approached her from behind and because she stood up so he wouldn’t step on her we were told to leave. She did not go anywhere near the server but is trained to protect me and be aware is why she broke her stay.She has been in countless restaurants and NEVER had any problems in any situation.NO WONDER WHY THEY WERE EMPTY!!!

All the staff is outstanding! They work so well together as a team!! 2lb shrimp meal is a must!!!! Fun place! Love Pineapple! Sooo knowledgeable!! Telling all my peeps about this place!!
Wanted to try this restaurant but was rudely greeted by a older man who said no dogs on patio including service dogs!! Clearly he dose not know the rules of service dogs maybe management should educate him!! Hardly anyone eating there! And by other reviews and hardly anyone eating there on a Friday night it was probably a blessing in disguise's

Great atmosphere, great food. Aways take visitors here and they aways are delighted.
I love the shrimp with a nice baguette to soak up the butter & seasoning. Never liked oysters until we had theirs. To die for! Must try! Buy the shirt.

Excellent prices on delicious seafood at this casual spot. The bartenders have mostly been around forever and give you high quality service and usually a laugh.

We brought visitors from Canada here. It was a fun night. Our server RANDY was very attentive and chatty which made the experience much more enjoyable.We got two dozen raw New Orleans oysters and they were huge and delicious. Also two pounds of mussels, two peel and eat shrimp plus monk bread. We were stuffed. The only complain was from the ladies wanted some kind of salad or vegetable. Prices were right. Definitely going to be one of our regular places. Ask for Randy from Horseheads!
