This is what you can expect if you choose to dine with us. And we hope you will.

His approach to Sarita is fairly simple: to create a space that’s a reflection of his kind of place.relaxing, fun and celebrate life in the company of friends and family with good food and a great cocktail in hand.

    We went to Pier W for our anniversary dinner. It could not have been more perfect. We had a drink in the bar while waiting our waitress was so sweet and friendly. She got our drink order in just in the nick of time to get happy hour prices. We were seated by the windows with a lovely view of the lake and the downtown skyline. Our server was very attentive. The food was amazing. We had the lobster bisque, clam chowder, Maine lobster pasta and the grilled mahi. The were all delicious and I would recommend. They also gave us a brownie desert for our anniversary. This was our first time here but it will not be our last.

    Wife and I had terrific dinner last evening. Ostrich and scallops appetizers, lobster pasta and mussels saffron pasta entrees all outstanding. Our server Jen was extremely helpful in choosing two bottles of the style of wines we wanted (we took part of each bottle home!). Looking forward to returning to try many other dishes.

    We ended up sitting at the bar on Christmas Eve and Tracy did an excellent job serving us. The drinks were delicious. The bread isn't as good as it used to be and also the butter. This bread is rather dry and hard and we miss the honey butter. We ordered the twin filets with fingerling potatoes and succotash. It had some strange smokey tomato sauce for the steak. We were slightly dissappointed with the meal. I was glad I asked for a side of bearnaise sauce but that was real thick too. Usually we love any of the food there but nothing was seasoned enough. The potatoes weren't good because it was just fingerling potatoes with so flavor to them. The succotash was just a corn relish. We will come back in the future but not for a good steak like we wanted to treat ourselves with for the holiday. So sorry for the bad review.
