The Point kitchen + cocktails + sunset

Great atmosphere. Fish 'n chips delicious. Love the Adirondack chairs on the lawn. Very relaxing and great view of water and boats. Servers were very attentive. Food took quite awhile to come out and it was a little pricey. But...Sarasota area during the season, that's expected.

Very disappointed you stopped serving pizza. It was best thing on the menu. Then waited an hour for 2 fish dinners, lobster roll and burger. Got there especially early. Burger was wrong one….roll was hard as a rock. Never again unless you start serving pizza.

Shared this place with a girlfriend today for lunch. We sat on the 3rd floor and the view and breeze were fantastic. Food took an unusual amount of time and the server never came back to check to see how everything came out. I modified a salad to accommodate my plant based diet and ended up with only a bowl of greens and 6 berries. Yes, I counted them and the menu stated raspberries and I got 3 raspberries and 3 blackberries. Not the end of the world by any means. I love the atmosphere of this place and would love to see more vegan dishes or options on this menu:)

Only had drinks, but it was beautiful. Espectacular sunset.

Lovely restaurant, atmosphere, good food. Great lunch spot for a quiet, relaxing, adult meal.

Arriving before 1130am is best.

Quality.... The only thing I'd change is adding thin chair cushions to the main restaurant seating.

Downstairs and a little walk away, the tiki hut area offers incredibly comfortable bar stool cushioned seats at the picnic tables. I had to get up & sit down several times to enjoy the incredible softness of the seats.

Love this place...

Not great got crab cake which was good .Got chicken tenders they were extremely thin and burnt. The view was nice that's about it. Bartender was eating lunch behind the bar which may not be a big deal to some but it's totally unprofessional. Came back on duty didn't even wash his hands. It appears it's run by a bunch of kids with a manager of the day. Don't waste your time or money on the burgers they are pre-made and taste terrible. The view is nice that's about it.

Very poor experience dining here. Menu was not what was online and lacked some dishes that drew us in. Service was slow and inattentive. Food was average, not all all worth the prices. Ordered a salad and did not revive the dressing and it took over 10 minutes to flag someone down to get it. Don’t waste your time or money.

Lovely water front setting with good selection on the menu. Interesting bar drinks with some innovative concoctions. Serving staff are friendly and helpful. Active and energized environment. Worth visiting. Kitchen staff could ease up on salt, but the fair is still wonderful.

We were greeted by a friendly host on the 3rd level who promptly showed us to our seat on the deck with an amazing view of the ICW. The server came over a short while later.

As far as the food-the lobster roll looked great plenty of fresh lobster salad.

Hamburger was so-so. I don’t think the grill was hot enough as there were only faint grill marks though the meat was cooked as ordered. Gray burgers are not a good look. The lettuce and tomato were skimpy and served under the burger and thus the wilted garnish was unappetizing in appearance.

There are good choices as far as side dishes. The cole slaw was fresh and tasty. Caesar salad ordered by companion looks good. Clam chowder was very good though a little too heavy.

Overall the efficient friendly service and the view kept this from being a 3-star review. The hamburger preparation and presentation needs work.

We were told that management is working on perfecting their reservation system. Inasmuch as this is a very popular place they will need to implement that before we come back for dinner.

The atmosphere is nice and comfortable, and the service was very good. However I felt very taken advantage of when charged for our beverages. When we inquired about why our drink bill was so high, to ensure it was correct, we were told they “don’t have a button to charge for a double, so they charge you twice”. I felt that rather than charging a reasonable price a shortcut was taken at the literal expense of the guest. There was no compromise offered and I suggested they warn someone before they charge over $20 per drink that easily could’ve been 30% cheaper. Disappointing management of an otherwise beautiful place, but I will not return for their unfair, non-transparent prices.
