Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant- Sarasota

The bartender took the entire 90 mins while I was there setting up the bar. I was merely secondary. The chicken piccata tasted like dog food. It was definitely not freshly prepared. I was considering taking it to the homeless but even they deserve an edible meal .

Excellent first experience with Cooper's Hawk Winery with friends during our visit to the area.

Flavorful! Amazing service and great environment. The food was over the top.

So disappointing that oven for flatbread has been down for over two weeks

I’m going to limit my review mainly to the shrimp and scallop risotto I had this evening. It was the best risotto dish I’ve ever had. Truly perfectly prepared risotto, perfect flavors, perfect consistency. The others at my table were also happy with their entrees. My only criticism is the overhead hanging lights in the bar area are glaringly bright!!

It was extremely cold in there. We all had to keep our jackets on. Service was good. I ordered pistachio crusted grouper and it was fabulous .

Wine tasting was good but a little rushed. Server cleaned table with a napkin, not very sanitary. Food was on point. Bathroom was disgusting. I told host during wine tasting. They sent two people to clean it, but when I used bathroom again there was vomit on the wall and sanitary dispenser was overflowing. For a restaurant that is supposed to be "upscale", the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. Unfortunately it has gone downhill.

Busy restaurant, upscale atmosphere, ok service, sub-par food. Neither my guest’s Asian Chicken salad nor my Trio of Medallions met our expectations. The chicken on the salad was fried and very oily and the salad dressing was poured too heavy and pretty spicy. The crusts on the Medallions were not really a crust but more like a patty of some kind. The medallions were overcooked, the mashed potatoes were excellent. Huge menu and wine list. Overall we were not impressed
