On Wednesday night, I woke up from a nap and found myself in downtown sarasota looking for a late night snack, and what I found was my new favorite spot. George was not only personable, but he makes excellent drinks. I had a fantastic smoked old fashion with Jameson. The whole presentation was so beautiful. George also recommended the Brasstown Dry Aged Burger. It was so delicious! Even though I was one of the last people to order for the night, the presentation and temperature of the Burger were simply perfect!!! I had a whole potato cut into quarters as my side , an awesome version of fries , they were seasoned so well too. The quality of the ingredients made my taste buds tingle!!! On Friday, I stopped in for a drink and once again was delivered impeccable service! George made me fantastic tequila drinks with fresh ingredients like blueberries! He has a way of bringing drinks and people together, and the whole bar was lively filled with strangers laughing and talking with each other. I also enjoyed the steak toast , it was so flavorfu! As a solo traveler, I love such a lively place where everyone was chatting and having a good time, and the food is absolutely out of this world!!

What an absolute gem of a restaurant. The ambiance is artsy, whimsical, fun--and it all just works…read more Really well. Our server, Juliana, provided absolute perfection. She was bright, effervescent, eager to please, extremely knowledgeable about every drink and food item on the menu, always present when needed but never hovering. She has perfected her craft and it made for a wonderful experience. The menu is written with flair and verve, and every offering seems irresistible. We wanted to try everything, but of course couldn't, so we made do with a couple of their signature cocktails (wonderful), a flatbread appetizer (also wonderful) and the very delicious meat loaf and the gemelli pasta entrees. I 10 out of 10 in every respect. We were quite concerned that we were the only patrons in the restaurant during our entire meal. It was early on a Tuesday evening in low season, but still. I hope more folks discover Wink Wink as it would be a shame to lose such a treasure. I would think they might want to consider offering a happy hour to boost things a bit. On the other hand, they could be doing very well and we just hit an off night. Go. Try it. The whole experience will be very entertaining with the art and whimsy of the decor and the menu. Great vibes. and the service and food were wonderful.

Bad karaoke and amazing clam chowder! Not sure it gets much better…read more We randomly stopped here as we were walking by and the place was rocking. It was packed. Open seating in the bar area and we lucked out with a table by the window and settled in for a bit. Now I'm no karaoke expert but some of the performers were not very good - lol. Entertaining though. But this clam chowder is next level incredible. I definitely rank it up in my Top 5 ever!! It was so delicious. Very meaty and creamy. Huge clam pieces. No matter what order the clam chowder. You'll be happy.

Cocktails were great with a discounted refill in a take home commemorative mug, and the clam chowder was no joke - touted as the best clam chowder with 2x the clams as anywhere else - I can confirm it was the most clams I've ever had and the chowder was really, really good. Service was friendly and attentive. My only complaint was that I would have preferred to hear the game from TVs if they could pause the live music for a once in 4-years event. To their credit, the live music was good.
