    The atmosphere is noisy but fun! Food is very good….just ordered something that was a bit too high in sodium for me. Service was good except we had to ask for water twice and it didn’t arrive until we were halfway finished with our entrees. To be fair, it was very busy. Also I ordered a drink that was described as using fresh fruit juice but it tasted more like simple syrup

    Had issues with one of our meals, but staff went overboard to fix it and then comped it on top of that. Other meal was excellent with no issues. Restaurant was nicely decorated with great ambiance, with decent noise level. Our booth helped mute some of the sound level, so that made it nice. Our server Tiffany was well trained and extremely accommodating and sweet. Kudos to her professionalism. Other staff were just as great. Overall, a well run operation with fabulous food and an above-average staff. That almost always makes for a great experience, which this was. We highly recommend Conner’s.

    We were three couples and we all agreed that this is one of the best restaurants in Sarasota. We had an excellent dining experience in every aspect. The service was attentive and our waitress was personable. The menu is varied and everything was properly prepared and served in generous portions and delicious. We tried the Shrimp Stack, Coconut Shrimp, Spinach Dip, Spinach Salad Bar, Bouillabaisse, Black Cod, Sea Bass, Stuffed Shrimp, Key Lime Pie, Mud Pie, and several different coffees. It was a leisurely dining experience in a comfortable setting. We highly recommend it and will return.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Dinner was delicious. Of course it never disappoints! The restaurant was full, but noise level was moderate due to the three different levels. Our waiter was David one of the bar tenders. Very helpful, considerate and cheerful! Would love to request him again. Will be going back for sure
