Evie’s Tavern & Grill on Bee Ridge 4725 Bee Ridge Road, Sarasota, FL 34233

"We stopped into Evie’s to sit outside, enjoy the weather in a casual atmosphere, and grab a late lunch…and so glad we did! Our bartender Anna, was welcoming, friendly, and offered great service and menu tips. My husband ordered the burrito bowl with steak, and it was delicious! Steak was tender and cooked perfectly. I wanted something lighter and had the Greek salad with gyro meat, and it was fantastic. No shortage of feta, Kalamata olives, and meat! We thought we’d be in for typical “bar food” but both dishes had large portions, and exceeded our expectations!"

"Great place to watch games, or just hang out with family... I love the food, specially the pizza. This is also a great place to celebrate kids Birthdays. (We celebrated my daughter's Bday when she was little)"

"Great spot to get friends together to watch sporting events and/or hit some golf balls at the range. Outside bar service was a bit slow but maybe due to understaffing. The food is typical bar food but probably not what one is going to the establishment for."

"Well…..Definitely not the Evie’s food I’m used to from the Sarasota Main St location. Food was below mediocre. Ordered buffalo chicken and fries were not considered a side that comes with the meal; ordered separately. The side of fries was a bit pathetic considering the extra cost. Service was also subjective; if the waitress spent the same amount of time at her tables practicing customer service as she did talking to her coworkers at the server station, customer service would be good. The server was very quick at delivering the order and disappearing just as quickly. Definitely making customers feel welcome is not her forte. A big disappointment for the Evie’s franchise."

"I stopped in to eat here on a Sunday because not much else was open in the area on a Sunday. The food was okay. I ordered a burrito bowl with ground beef. The portion was huge which I honestly find frustrating sometimes because I end up throwing away half the food (was traveling and couldn't take away the leftovers). The server wasn't great. If I needed something, including my check after I had been sitting and waiting a while, if I looked around to locate the server, she was standing looking bored by the drink station. This occured many times. I wouldn't eat here again."
