5 reviews for Pattigeorge's Restaurant
I've been in Sarasota for a couple days now and well as always when somewhere new I look on Yelp to see where a good place to go eat may be. There aren't a lot of restaurant reviews in Sarasota so this made it harder to choose! One of the restaurants with the most reviews though was Pattigeorge's or PG's as the restaurant calls itself.
The drive was pretty out of the way like everyone before me commented, but in actuality it isn't that far. Maybe a 15-20 min drive from the airport. Not bad at all for good food!
Upon arriving to the restaurant I wasn't sure it was still open. Its got a dim lit atmosphere to it and there were hardly any cars parked out front. I had seen the Chart House a few miles back and contemplated going there since you can never go wrong with that place and their parking lot was packed. I decided to go into PG's anyways. I walked in and it wasn't very crowded at all...this worried me even more. Why would such a good restaurant be so empty? Later I would come to the conclusion that PG's must be a well kept secret/hidden gem.
I walked in and one of the hosts directed me to my table. It was a cute little table next to the large windows overlooking the water. It was a beautiful view...the host was not lying when he said best view in the house! Most of the other tables in that area had that same view just out a different window. I was already feeling good about my choice to stay.
The menu is fairly small which makes it easier to decide although most everything looked good! I ordered the Miso Glazed Chilean Sea Bass (Lobster Consomme, Fresh Fennel and Carrots) as my waitress said it was one of the most popular dishes. The host would later come around to tell me that I had ordered the best dish. Again he was not lying! It was delicious...it had a lobster like texture and amazing flavor. The Asian fusion was wonderful!
Last of all I ordered the Vanilla Infused Creme Brulee and it was very good. It had some whipped cream on it and an assortment of berries in the corner next to the whipped cream. Definitely a good way to end my meal!
I had a great experience at PG's, the staff was very friendly and the service was very quick! I would definitely suggest Pattigeorge's to anyone in the area...
omg! This brings tears to my eyes! Sublime -- dophins swimming by. This was always the first place we would stop after getting off the plane from Chicago. A wonderful transition, we are snowbirds -- and this place makes us feel like we belong here.
Beautiful location. Overated food.
A lot of folks try to design Asian/Fusion cuisine. As one that has lived in Asia, let me just say that Chef Tommy gets it. He even grows his own lemongrass. The place is a little out of the way but well worth the drive. Put this place on your must dine there list! It is a gastronomical experience that you will not want to miss!
A little more out of the way then I had originally thought, this place proved worth the drive. I didn't see any dolphins swim by in the kinda murky water outside, but the view was amazing and the dining room was perfectly designed for gazing out over the water. The food was well prepared and tasty. The waitstaff was super knowledgeable...she really did know everything about every dish. That was awesome! I so enjoy that in a restaurant. It was totally an older crowd inside, but that was fine with us. I went here last week while on a work trip in Sarasota. It was a quick ride to get there, no problem. I totally expected "early birds", but that was not the case at all. Most people showed up well after 7pm, wow! We got there at 6pm and were greeted by the resident kitty cat, didn't see him in the dining room though... maybe he works the pest control department, I dunno. But the Asian inspired menu was quite diverse... Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and even a little American. Great food, good atmosphere, beautiful views.... it was a perfect dinner. I'll be back :)
