This location was recommended to me by a Peruvian. What a great surprise! The Atmosphere inside is very appealing, the staff are very helpful and friendly. Our waitress and his assistant were "there" all the time checking on you. BUT, I have an issue, when I order Calamari and they stick octopus with the plate. Two different things! The menu... More

I have been to Darwin's four times already. It is in a restored warehouse building and the floor to ceiling beer vat behind a glass wall in front lends to its character. There is a second floor table seating balcony area over the bar. It is only open for dinner and they absolutely don't seat before 5 PM.Reservations are recommended,... More

My new husband and I decided to have a small intimate wedding with our parents and close siblings. We picked Darwin's for our dinner as it is one of our favorite places in town. From the moment we contacted them to make our reservation they did everything in their hands to make our dinner special. We spoke with one of... More

Charming space in Sarasota which has a hopping restaurant scene in the lovely downtown area which has been renewed with spark and verve. This place has fabulous ceviche and a New Orleans-style vibe. Very good bar, very good service, come and enjoy.

Have brought guests to Darwin's for the past year and the cuisine, service by well informed waiters and atmosphere are all excellent. Chef Darwin is a master of ingenuity who creates a caliphony of tastes and flavors for his diners. The on site brewery is equally as goog producing world class craft beers. This is the best restaurant in Sarasota.

This place was amazing! They were so accomodating to our large group that included two toddlers. Their selection of house crafted beer (the lemongrass was our fave) to the array of ceviche's. This place couldn't have been more perfect and it's definitely worth the price. FYI: the service is absolutely outstanding, and the lobster taco is a must!
