Nestled in the heart of downtown Sarasota, Green Zebra Cafe on Main offers a warm, casual atmosphere, exceptional service and delicious food to share with family and friends. With a focus on pure, wholesome, and locally-sourced ingredients, both of our Brunch and Dinner menus are carefully crafted to reflect our customers dietary requirements.

Our everyday Brunch menu features a long list of all time favorites such as, Omelettes Your Way, Italian Benedict, Our Famous Raw Pancake, and our Lavender-Blueberry pancakes. As well as, organic cold-pressed juices, smoothies and acai bowls.

Our dinner menu highlights both plant-based cuisine as well as dishes with ethically raised meats and sustainable seafood. Some of our most popular dishes are the Salt-roasted Golden Beets for starters, Chicken Veloute or the Raw Vegan Lasagna as Entrees, and our mouth watering gluten-free vegan cheesecakes for dessert.

Look forward to seeing you!

    Excellent food service. We sat outside. The hired saxophone twelve feet from our table played and sang very well but conversation at the table was impossible. A quieter instrument would have been a better choice. Prices were higher than we expected.

    Saturday night dinner: Service was mixed, food so-so (bland!), and the saxophone player / singer was very loud and really, not very good. The Green Zebra was a nice change from the usual more showy restaurants of downtown, but we’re in no rush to return. I will say though, we both very much appreciated all the vegetarian and vegan offerings.

    The server and the service were exceptional. She was very pleasant and professional. When a concern was raised about the salt level of an appetizer, not only the server but two other personnel attended to the concern. I have never experienced that level of efficiency and respect for a customer before. The food was exceptional in its quality and taste. I highly recommend the Green Zebra Café and indeed will return.

    Wonderful food and great service in a space where we actually can talk to each other without shouting over the noise or music. We love this restaurant as our pre-theatre go to.

    Menu selection and the actual food (beets with goat cheese; barramundi) excellent. Cocktails a little oversugared. Our waitperson was inclined to be forgetful, but he looked to be the exception. Very friendly atmosphere. Noise level only high because of a saxophonist playing. Brunch menu also good: the eggs Benedict can be highly recommended.

    Things were a little loud, but the food is of great quality and the service matches that. I dined for dinner 7:15p-8:40p on 25 January 2025.
