Restaurants near Ed Smith Stadium

Food and service were outstanding. Fresh ingredients. Amazing menu. We loved it and will be back.

We visit Cooper’s Hawk often and always have a great experience. On this visit nothing has changed. Our wine came out quickly, appetizers were hot and delivered before the meal as expected. My husband had the pork chop and grouper from the “surf and turf” selection. He thought they were both delicious and served hot. I had my usual, soy salmon and was not disappointed. We had seen some of the reviews from a few days ago and expected delays…. Not so. Considering the busy time of year, Cooper’s Hawk has their act together.

The ambiance and atmosphere in this restaurant is lovely. Food is always delicious. Service was great. Everyone enjoyed their Christmas here. It is a top notch restaurant #1 in Sarasota, FL. The owner, sons, family members, chef, servers, bartender, etc. do a fabulous job! Kudos to all at Rosemary & Thyme!

My only regret is that I don’t live closer so that I could experience this fabulous restaurant more often. Glenda took great care of us, and we sat outside on a beautiful night. I highly recommend the scallops, Caesar salad, the tuna entree and the skirt steak with plantains. This was a special anniversary for us, and the dessert- a chocolate confection of mousse with a hard chocolate shell- was divine. Thank you, Selva, for a memorable evening!

Brittney was an amazing server. She did everything she could to best assist us. She joked with us, chatted with us and made our Christmas Eve lunch extra tasty!
