Restaurants near Arbor Terrace

Our kids and grandkids were visiting from CT for Thanksgiving and we thought they would enjoy sitting outside on the water for Thanksgiving dinner (and I didn’t have to cook!). It was a beautiful day. The atmosphere is perfect. Our server, Lynn, greeted us and we learned that she is from our hometown. She was delightful to interact with and was a large part of why the experience was so enjoyable. She made suggestions for draft beers and for dinners for those that didn’t want the traditional holiday meal. The kids had the wasabi tuna and the ribeye and they raved about both of them. The rest of us loved the traditional meal. We agreed that the turkey was the best we ever had and the sides were plentiful and delicious. We have decided that this will be our new Thanksgiving tradition. We couldn’t have been any happier with the experience.

Always enjoy The Grillroom at the Ringling Museum. Food, Service and ambiance are all extraordinary. Our server Betty B was terrific and the meatballs on a bed of polenta with a side salad was almost more than I could eat. My lunch partner had the Tuna Nicoise, which was equally delicious. Dining on the outdoor terrace was especially nice.

Excellent again. Fantastic service. Worthy of a special treat.

So happy with all the improvements at Scarpino's. Tom was our server and he was excellent. As usual, the food was delicious and good value for the money. Ambiance is lovely. Just perfect. Thank you to the Scarpino's team.
