The Old Salty Dog Siesta Key - Sarasota

Fun and friendly atmosphere?food is as good as bar food. Drinks were delicious! I did fully enjoy the island taco with blackened group. Would definitely be a stop on our next visit to Siesta Key

Came here for lunch and our server Anthony was very attentive to our orders and gave suggestions for substitutions, and was knowledgeable about the menu. He mentioned we would have a short wait for our food, but that quickly turned into nearly 45minutes. He did bring us refills and checked up on our table a few times. When our food did arrive he thankfully served thechildren and mother first, then my brother in law's food came a few minutes later, and finally mine another few minutes later.The food was worth the wait however. I got the fish sandwich which was Gulf Grouper. Battered and fried, it came golden brownand incredibly hot. Overall, well over an hour and a half for a lunch visit was a bit ludacris. I was interested in coming backbecause of the tastey food until it came time for the check, where Anthony dropped it at the table and then disappeared. Werealized maybe we pay up front, so we went up front and then waited another 10 minutes before Anthony approached us and, veryrudely, brought it to our attention that we pay him at the table. It seemed after we got our entrées delivered he was no longerinterested in providing us service. I would come back and try food again, hopefully without service of this caliber.

Pina Colada's are delicious ????. Ribs were not so great, seemed old. Hot dog ???? was GIANT!

Friendly atmosphere. Love that they allow dogs on the patio and they bring them water and treats and make sure the water is full the entire time. We went around dinner time. The food was good and the servers were very friendly! Will definitely return ournext trip to Florida!

The Old Salty Dog on Siesta Key is a must-visit! Exceptional seafood, waterfront views, and a relaxed atmosphere create the perfect dining experience. Their fish and chips are a highlight, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Don't skip this gem!
