Restaurants near Sarasota Jungle Garde

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

My boyfriend and I have heard nothing but good things about Selva. We decided to do dinner and we were not disappointed. We started off with some drinks, the espresso martini is an absolute must there! We had the empanadas as an appetizer. One was spinach and one was beef, both were amazing and flavorful! For dinner I had the skirt steak with truffle risotto (I subbed the sweet plantains for the risotto). My boyfriend had the short rib with asparagus and couscous risotto. He loved the short rib and asparagus, the couscous risotto lacked a bit of flavor but was still good mixed with everything. Overall, we were incredibly happy with the food and the service! We can’t wait to go back and try more from their menu!

The food and service are outstanding. They are by far the best value in Sarasota....3 courses for less than $40 for great food is crazy good. We have always received great, attentive service whether we were outside on their patio or inside.

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

Excellent service and selection. We sat outside and the food came out promptly and was delicious!
