Great GF pizza

These Cupcakes are absolutely to die for 😋🧁. Super Moist & the frosting was delicious. I had an assortment of regular cupcakes & then I got my mom some gluten free choices. I originally went there because they offer gluten free for my mom but, she also has a severe allergy to soy & to my surprise, the owner uses no soy in her receipes, everything is homemade with fresh ingredients. My mom was just as pleased with her gluten free choices as we were to our regular baked cupcakes, she said they were all very delicious. The owner is very nice & informative, you can really tell her heart is in the baking. ❤️ my family will definitely be back for more

I have been gluten free for many years, and have a hard time trying to find food that is tasty. This place is amazing. From the appetizers to the wine to the desserts to the main menu and all of it...woooohooooo good. Are server Shane was fantastic! We will definitely be back!

Great place, food is delicious 🤤 gluten free & vegan. Every time we are in Sarasota that’s our HAPPY 😃 PLACE. Our servers Andrey and Matt were great explaining the menu and advise us options. This was the weekend of Saturday May 3rd - Monday May 5th, 2025.

We visited from TN and we can't wait to come back and eat here again. The food is fresh and healthy. So many gluten free options too since my husband has celiac and I am gluten intolerant. The staff are so nice and willing answer any questions you have. Definitely a 10 out of 10 ☺️

I love Simon’s! I’ve been going for years and the food is always amazing! I always go for any vegan specials and the soups are always delicious and unique! I also never leave without a dessert for later! Such a great variety of vegan, gluten free and other items! A huge bonus is that their entire team is incredible! Local- family owned- great options- check them out!

100/10, absolutely excellent. Especially if you have Celiac and have to be gluten free -- they have GOT YOU. This is one of the largest gluten free menus I've ever been able to order from that wasn't a dedicated GF restaurant. We got the drunken shrimp, chicken risotto, and smores budino, and it was so good! There were five or six GF deserts I could've chosen too, which is unheard of. The gluten free bread alone won me over. It was so incredible, even my husband loved it. The wine is delicious -- we joined the wine club and got the seasonal dragonfruit sangria, as well as the white sangria. Highly recommend!! Bonita at the wine tasting bar took care of us, she has the best personality and laugh, such a joy. 🥰 Give this woman a raise! Also Casey W, our waitress, for the great service and taking care of my GF needs. We had such a great experience, we definitely recommend. Top 3 restaurant in the Tampa/St. Pete/Saraota area for us.

Amazing place! I am vegan and gluten free this place offers everything you can imagine and more! Vegan food is beyond good. I don’t even know how they create such a delicious food! Thank you Ka Pappa! Highly recommend it and I am definitely coming back 🌱

Alex Hausman

We had a bunch of food allergies at the table and the manager was really nice and gave us a bunch of options. He was also able to modify the gluten free and vegan options to include meat easily.

Fashion Girl

Absolutely love crop juice!! They have 100% organic cold pressed juice in glass bottles. There grab and go salads and quinoa bowls are addictive for healthy lunch! And of course I can’t resist there organic gluten free and vegan sweet treats! I probably tried all of them and absolutely in love with these clean ingredients!!

Crystina

Excellent authentic Mediterranean food! Large selection of food items and the menu clearly states all allergen options with a logo for the allergens so it was very easy to read for some of our gluten intolerant guests. Our party thought the cold and hot appetizers tasted better than the entrees, they were delicious. I had an issue with my main entree and the waitstaff were quick to fix it and the kitchen was able to re-make my plate immediately they were very kind.

Wow. Why didn't we find this place earlier on our vacation. If you are looking for delicious gluten free or vegan options, then this is your place. Great, cozy restaurant with about 10 tableclothed tables inside and 10 outside. The service was impeccable. Portions are European in size (plenty, but not huge). The Angus burger was delicious. And we absolutely loved the apple/orange tart for dessert. And apparently they serve breakfast + lunch too so will have to come back to try that.

Looking for the great pizza? Lucile has got it. Pizza oven puts out the best crust! All fresh local ingredients. Choose from their menu choices or create your own. Plant Based... got you covered with many choices. Small intimate atmosphere, not noisy. Serves wine only, great selection. This is a great choice for everyone as they have choices for plant based, gluten free and vegetarians and meat eaters. Service was fantastic too!

Lindsay Johnson

They have an excellent happy hour! Also the most delicious homemade gluten free pita. The tzatziki dip is the best I've ever had and saganaki is a childhood favorite. Highly recommend this location.

GLUTEN FREE SAFE!! First off, I never write online reviews but I feel compelled to do so with Stiks. This restaurant has quickly become one of our favorite spots to eat at in Sarasota. The food is always made fresh (and fast), everyone is always SUPER friendly and the place is decorated with a very chill vibe and ALWAYS kept clean. Both my wife and daughter have Celiac disease and cannot tolerate any cross contamination. I'm here to tell others with the same disease that this place is very safe for you to eat at. They've never been cross contaminated here and we always enjoy the food. This place IMO is a hidden gem in Sarasota and especially for those that wish they can eat this kind of food but fear cross contamination. I highly recommend you give it a try, you won't regret it!

Our server Ashley was great! She was great with our son and very attentive even though it was really busy. The food is great, the kids meal is a great value and great quality. Love that they have gluten-free and dairy free options (except dessert 😞) Love that the menu changes with the season too. It's super busy on the weekend, they should open one closer to Parrish

Steph Sundell

Wow this place has A LOT of gluten free options with their unique ice cream flavors. I was helped today by Lori and she was super nice explained all the different flavors for me and gave me lots of samples to help me choose. I will be coming back this is my favorite ice cream spot now! Thank you for the delightful treat and service!

While on a road trip we found this awesome place. So I've been on some strange habits lately of only eating out and ordering things I can't get usually. ( a bit strange I know but it's getting me to order outside the box ) I had the Rueben on Rye with potato salad. I would def order that again. Buttery, toasty, flavorful and filling. It could have a bit more meat though. Potato salad was yummy! My partner had the matcha and a muffin. Muffin was sweetened with monk fruit, gluten free, and just the right amount of fluffy/moist. Lastly we got a sausage & egg everything bagel with a slice of tomato and it was good. Everything is fresh to order yet it didn't take long. Although we didn't get to try all the baked goods they have a really hefty selection.

Taylor Keefe

Love this place! Stumbled upon it during my vacation and could not be happier. Great for my gluten free/vegan people. Doesn’t taste like artificial sugars/sweetener; it’s very natural and filling!

I was surprised how incredible the cocktails were at Jack and Dusty. There were genuine mixologists behind the bar. I tend to gravitate toward speakeasy-style cocktails, I love classics and also variations on them. Their menu is rich in spirit selection and their cocktail menu is thoughtful. When I asked for off-menu rye based drinks like a sazerac or green point they made them beautifully. For their old fashioned’s they used a large clear square ice cube stamped by a brass ice-stamp. While the smoking jacket, a take on the old fashioned with a single barrel Angel’s Envy exclusive to this Ritz-Carleton served in a smoked glass was a bit on the pricey side, $28, for the quality I would go back and spend that again. The food was also good but I can’t comment so much on the quality because I am vegetarian and gluten-free so I just had their butternut squash soup and fall vegetable salad - both good. Oh - the fries were good too! I’ve been to a lot of hotel bars and this one is a gem!
