Savor Sarasota

By Carson B · June 3, 2025

This story ran in June 2025, so dates, hours, and details may have changed.

I haven’t ever spotlighted something twice, but Savor Sarasota is worth it.

From June 1 through 20, participating spots across Sarasota, Longboat Key, Lido Key, Venice, and Englewood will offer prix-fixe menus at $25 for lunch and $45 for dinner.

This is a long running special event. It’s the best way to get to know the Sarasota restaurant scene.

Be sure to check out some of the participating restaurants. And if you go, don’t forget to tell them the Sarasota Scoop sent you!
