Rudolph's - Sarasota

We sat outside in the beautiful covered courtyard and were able to easily turn back with our party. this place is undiscovered, but would be a great selection for opera, theater, van wezel.

I hadn't been to this restaurant before, but I visited with my wife on Valentine's Day. They offered a special prix fixe menu that was not only excellent but also a great value. Each of the four courses was outstanding, including a delicious lobster risotto. I really don't understand why this restaurant isn't more well-known.

We had a Valentine's Day dinner and chose to sit outside on the terrace. Unfortunately, it started to rain, and there were no covers to protect us from the water. Additionally, we had to send two of our coffees back because they were served cold. I also noticed that the terrace wasn't decorated with any Valentine's Day ornaments.

I really love the menu! There's a great variety and plenty of plant-based options. Parking can be a bit limited, so valet service is available. The atmosphere and ambiance are both fantastic.

I would recommend for drinks, but not to dine. I ordered the steak frites with chimichurra sauce. Fair, at best.
