                    The service was outstanding, but with that being said, the food was pretty standard. Our only issue was the cost for what they offer. $47 for a 6oz filet and one side is absolutely ridiculous. On a side note, their “summer special” which is similar to the “Savor Sarasota” is not honored on Friday or Saturday nights. We gave it a try, but I feel they are out of touch with other restaurants in the area.

                    The ladies at reception found the white jacket I left behind on my chair and they courteously acknowledged that and held my jacket for a few days until we returned. Thank you.

                    eggplant coucous dish had a lot of couscous, pork chop was a bit dry, steak tips too chewy & cavatappi pasta with eggplant had red sauce & pesto sauce (though it was going to be pesto sauce only) & didn't expect a family serving of pasta.

                    Good is good. Had the prime rib sandwich and I thought it needed more seasoning.

                    Being from New England, the scallops and lobster were like what I'm used to. They were delicious, tender and seasoned perfectly! I will definitely be going back. The only thing I found was the pricing was a bit higher than what I'm used to paying. I will still go back with that in mind.
