Food was phenomenal! Best tuna I've had (and I've had it plenty of times). Whole fish was great, redfish was fantastic. Sides were to die for! We had Brussels sprouts, creamed spinach and fries. Yum! Oyster shooters were too spicey for my palate but stuffed artichoke was great (heavy, so share it) and octopus carpaccio was absolute perfection! Dessert was pot de creme with berries and cream. Not a show stopper. Overall, we highly recommend and will return!
Bright and welcoming decor, knowledgeable and professional staff, balanced and diverse menu, with incredible tap cocktails. Highly recommend.
Love having Veronica Fish & Oyster in the neighborhood! Great vibe and the food is wonderful. The bar and wait staff are all really nice and the service is excellent. Love the raw oysters and the menu is fun and different!
Finally! A great gumbo outside of Louisiana. I never thought it would happen! Everything we ordered was on point, the service was excellent, and we couldn't have made a better choice for our anniversary. Many thanks to Chef Mark and our server Dylan!
Very nice place! Love the bar. Our waiter Patrick was nice and very professional. The food was fresh and creative. Definitely on our list of favorites in Sarasota.
If you like some good oysters this is the place. Not your normal oysters, very good and stuff you can't just go buy. The price is up there a little bit but it is delicious. I am getting addicted to thus place.
The food is delicious and the staff is great. Love the location. Definitely a great place for Sunday brunch!
Excellent food and service. If Daniel is tending bar, eat and drink at the bar. He’s a great bartender and a great conversationalist.
Attentive service and excellent food - well appointed, comfortable - a great place to gather with friends and family.
One of my favorites in Sarasota. Love the Crab “toast” and Ben comes up with creative and yummy oyster specials. Bartenders make you feel like a regular quickly...that’s right I am a regular😜

This was one of the best places I ever ate at...by far the best food I had since I came to Florida
Love this modern industrial place, the food is fantastic but best of all the service is amazing!!
What a phenomenal dining experience! I was there with my boyfriend, mother ,and two children on my birthday and everything was exceptional! Katie was the best server she was so professional. Can't wait to go back again.
Love coming to Veronica every time we are in the Sarasota area.
Fantastic food, drinks, and great atmosphere.
You must try the potato rolls, so so good! The avocado crab appetizer is really good too. Our favourite dish is the Thai Crispy Snapper. What an amazing dish, a full fried snapper with all the sides necessary to make amazing fish lettuce wraps, the Thai dressing on the side is amazing. Everything here is delicious!
Everything is yummy! Our friends suggested we dine here, highly recommend everyone to go to Veronica’s! The restaurant decor has much to talk about in conversation and the food was so good we cleaned our plates!
New favorite! This restaurant is a true gem! This was our first time. Beautiful place with the nicest staff. Great cocktails and the best oysters in a long time. Had the redfish special and the whole snapper thai style. Located in a more nieghborhood setting and valet parking took the parking anxiety out of downtown Sarasota dining on a saturday!
Third time here. It's become my wife's fav birthday place. Parking was weird this time because you used to be able to park in the back because street parking so limited but now it's all valet parking. The attendant was very nice about it. We were promptly seated to find a bucket with champagne waiting for us. It was a surprise from our son and daughter-in-law. Sue C was an excellent server and made our dinner so much more pleasant. Food was exceptional as always although I wish they had a little more extensive menu. I understand it's better to have fewer great options than a large number that is more difficult to offer. Piece of cake with candle was a very nice touch. Great place.
We love this place, delicious food, great service, fantastic atmosphere. The place to be, ask for Rebecca, our favorite waitress.
This place is a nice gem in the heart of Sarasota. We came here for my birthday. The food is very fresh and expertly prepared. I haven't had octopus like that since I was in Costa Rica... you can cut it with a fork, as you should! The ambience is nice; they have couches with tables that gives a lounge vibe along with traditional dining tables. One thing to note: it gets very loud inside. The service was excellent. You can tell the manager really cares about the patrons' experience. My only issue was the prices. It's pretty cha-ching so if you come here, expect to spend between $30 and $80 PER PERSON, especially if you get drinks. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience.
Food, service and atmosphere were all 5 star. We were offered two different choices in raw oysters from two different locations! They were delicious. The bar was very well stocked with many offerings in every spirit. We enjoyed our first visit very much. We will be back.
I have been to Veronica’s twice and both times it delivers on every step of the dining experience. Most importantly every dish we have gotten has delivered on taste and execution. A surprise favorite of mine is the skirt steak with Mexican inspiration and bold flavors, Yum! Also this place has made me rethink my hesitation to oysters. The oysters are so clean and fresh that they are a must have every time I go. Combine the tastiness of the food with such an enjoyable vibe& interior you got a restaurant that is on top of my list in Sarasota.
Such a fun spot! I was with three girlfriends and we sat inside at a corner window table. Sue was our (fabulous!) server. The cocktails were good. The wine list has plenty of good selections. I had the avocado crab appetizer and it was fabulous! For dinner I had the special which was halibut served alongside the most interesting and delicious salad; arugula, cilantro, mint and lump crab. This might have been my favorite thing!!!! I loved the vibe and fun decor. I can’t wait to go back!
Been coming here while on vacation for several years always fabulous food do yourself a favor and order the rolls while they may seem to be a simple item they are soooo good always a highlight any seafood item Is a winner
