My first night in Sarasota we checked out Siesta Beach and then headed off to dinner at Siesta Key Oyster Bar. I figured it was a popular spot if we were dining there and I was right. From what I gathered, it is a favorite because the food is great, the staff is friendly and it allows you to people watch (and we all know how entertaining that can be).
When I initially I found out we’d be eating there, I hoped they offered more than seafood considering I don’t eat seafood (the smell alone can drive me mad). Fear not, I did not go hungry that evening (nor did I go mad from the smell of seafood). I left with my belly full…and happy!
That evening I dined on…
Buffalo Wings
Straight Up
Onion Rings (because fries apparently weren’t enough)
My fellow table mates dined on…
Oysters (because how can you go to an Oyster Bar and not order Oysters)
Dark N’ Stormy BBQ Chicken
Big Boy Mac N’ Cheese
All of us were very happy with the food!
Siesta Key Oyster Bar is located at 5238 Ocean Blvd., on Siesta Key in Sarasota, Florida.
Note: My visit to Sarasota was part of a hosted media trip with Visit Sarasota County. However, as always, ALL opinions are my own!
The burger and fries look amazing and so delicious! I want to try that!
Well, after your other post on the pie making contest at Yoder’s, my husband and I decided to go to Sarasota at the beginning of next month to celebrate our birthdays! Yes, we were born one day apart and yes, I’m older! 🙂 We have decided to stay a couple of days because we’ve never been to Siesta Key beach and we’ve heard it’s gorgeous, so now we have another restaurant to visit! Thank you for sharing this review and information. I look forward to going!
Yay!!! I am so happy to hear that! You’re going to love it. Happy Early Birthday to you both 🙂
Thank you Leanette! We just booked our room and we’re excited to get away for a couple of days! If there is anywhere or anything else in the area you think we shouldn’t miss, we’d love to know! 🙂
Yay!!! Let me know how it goes 🙂
Nice!!! I would love to try this place out, i haven’t been to FL in a while, but if/when I do I will remember this place. I’d esp like to try tht Dark & Stormy Chicken!
Those oysters were super fresh and yummy!
Those Onion rings would be so tasty right
