Ridley's Porch - Sarasota

I think they were either terribly understaffed or just didn’t prioritize time. We had reservations and showed up on time only to be told they couldn’t seat us just yet and to have a drink at the bar while we wait. Not a problem even though I thought it odd that there were only 6 tables occupied and many tables empty. We ended up waiting 30 minutes at the bar before our table was ready. Another 5-10 for a waitress to bring waters/bread menus. We ordered an appetizer (sweet potato bites which were delicious) but after that took another 15 or so minutes, we figured that it would most likely be another hour before we would even see an entree so we decided to change plans from there. Everything was delicious and servers were very nice but was just a little slow in my opinion.

Only stopped in for a quick bitem. Best wedge salad we ever had! Chicken sandwhich was good too. Service was perfect and we'll definitely go again.

It is ONLY MEMEVERS CLUB! SHOULD NOT PUT THIS RESTAURANT ON THE MAP. WHY?

First time going Marisa and Danny were both very friendly and accommodating to me and my wife. Both of them were great conversationalist. The vibe was great. We had Kyra working with us with our food and drinks and she was absolutely phenomenal. Kyra, Marisa, and Danny definitely made the experience worthwhile. Even when it started raining Kyra was so attentive and accommodating, she made amazing recommendations for the food as well. Would definitely recommend and if you go make sure to speak with Danny or Marisa, why not both? Definitely request for Kyra if you can she’s awesome! To be honest the whole staff was awesome! Nothing but good things to say about the staffing team!

Matt was our waiter. He's a stallion! He made great recommendations and the food was always on our pleasure. Love this place!
