    Chicken tenders 5 pieces
    gary s.

    Well they redeemed themselves! I received a $10 birthday coupon, so we decided to give them another chance. The tenders were smaller but we're still delicious. Service was great and they did a good job of cleaning the tables after people left. Bath' soda now has a cream soda along with their root beer. Haven't had a cream soda in along time, it was pretty good.

    2nd year coming back here and I can't believe I'm saying this, but the food is better than chick fil a and I'm all for chick fil a, like I don't eat any fast food other than chick fil a. The fries at PDQ are definitely better, perfectly crisp. All the sandwiches definitely have a bigger piece of chicken as well. We tried the Jacked spicy, Honey Chicken, and the crispy deluxe. This year, they brought back the Zucchini Fries and I'm so happy I got a chance to try them. So worth it! Service is quick, and I like that they have the Coca Cola freestyle machines so you have more fountain drink options. Outdoor seating always perfect for the summer.

    I took my little guy to this location for the first time yesterday. The staff was friendly and welcoming. They helped us understand the menu as we were first timers. The chicken tenders were some of the best we've ever had, and highly approved by a five-year-old. The fries were also awesome. They have several options for sauces, but I wasn't a fan of either of the two I tried (PDQ sauce and ranch). I'm more of a purist, and I felt like the sauces of scared the taste of the chicken. It is definitely a compliment that the chicken is so good that no sauce is needed! We loved our meal and we will be back.

    wow food is great! and the service was fast! we love jake he did a great job Jake was Jake goes to Jake is around our age. We told Jake how we're going to the track meet and he supported us. He was just good luck. He is very enthusiastic and very fun to be around. Jake is also very hard working. jake's favorite sauce is honey mustard.

    PDQ is usually good. This location not so much due to poor employee selection. Service was awful and the food even worse.

    Solid fast food. Seems higher quality. Fries are good so are tender. Not Chic Fila but good enough.

    The chicken is always hot and crispy. Made to order is the best way to have chicken. The restaurant is clean and well staffed.

    Got the spicy chicken sandwich meal. I would take the chicken sandwich at Chick-fil-A or Popeyes any day. Worth one try. Very expensive.

    Very convenient food stand located right on the beach…read more If you didn't bring a SINGLE snack like us to the beach and skipped breakfast (I know I know, WHO does that?) then you'll literally be the happiest human to know this place exists. We were in the mood for an easy beach day and didn't want to make a million stops and pack all the things. Knowing this place was around made our beach day so easy. Pros: breakfast food is available until 11am, they have all kinds of snacks, drinks, food - from burgers to nachos, quesadillas to grilled cheese. Cons: it's just a fast food spot, nothing super special about the food, the staff is half nice half stand off ish, the in house canned margaritas are just artificial lemonade. What I love the MOST about this place is you can place an order online ahead of time. Even better, you can place an order right from your beach chair and then meet at a specific meet point and they'll deliver it to you. Super cool and convenient especially with the extra long walk to their stand. I genuinely love the home made margarita cans but it would be nice if they actually put some tequila in it. Sadly, you do pay for a cocktail and get an extra light version of it.

    Greetings! With me,…read moreyou'll always get what I think is the best of the best, and if I'm lucky, the best of the best of what you would never find on your own unless someone told you to go there. Out-of-the-way places that are unexpected treasures are my favorite places to find myself . For today's review, let me invite you to the unusual yet very ordinary locale that is Siesta Beach Sand Pavilion. First, we start with a word about Siesta Beach. It is an award-winning stop noted for its most define quartz sand in the country, if not the world. Add to a tremendous location Sarasota surrounding environment makes CSO a hotspot for beach, lovers, family, getaways, and people watching extraordinaire. A special note about Siesta Key Beach Drum Circle's that take place here at sunset Sunday nights. The sand pavilion serves up some unexpectedly good comfort foods. The main feature for me that I always plan to have whenever I'm in Sarasota is the blackened mahi-mahi sandwich. Fresh fish, great seasoning made to order perfect every time. The sandwich is served up on a great bun with lettuce, tomato and onion the condiments that you might care for are available at your request. There's nothing vin ordinaire about the sandwich they serve. Honorable mention besides the blackened fish sandwich are the chicken tenders and other great comfort foods. You also have a variety of great cold beer choices, and access to sheltered seating and washrooms to give yourself a well-deserved break from the sun for your time at Siesta Key Beach. The sand Pavilion is staffed by friendly, efficient staff that always seem to add a touch of local charm. The Santa pavilion at Siesta Key Beach is a bit off the beaten path away from the mainland, and can be very crowded about any given time that the weather might be nice enough for a stop at the beach. Take my word, it's worth it every time! Until next time...tk

    After a relaxing day at Siesta Key beach, we stopped at The Cottage for lunch. I cannot say enough…read moregreat things about this restaurant. It's got a relaxing beach vibe with outside seating and a nice patio in the back with enough shade. I could tell that they host nightly entertainment here with a small stage. For lunch, I ordered the lobster maki roll. I'm not a big sushi fan, but I was intrigued. This lobster roll was one of the best sushi rolls I've had in a long time. Also ordered include the blackened grouper sandwich, billionaire burger, and tempura shrimp appetizer. Our group loved every entree. The cocktails were also refreshing. I really loved my jalapeño watermelon margarita. Our server was wonderful - very friendly and quick service. Definitely an enjoyable lunch or dinner spot!

    We booked this place via OpenTable since it received great reviews. We ended up parking next door…read moresince parking was a bit hard to navigate. The parking place had ample parking where you needed a mobile app to pay for your parking. There was a larger souvenir store there if you needed to kill time before your seating. Once it was our time for our dinner reservations, we were greeted and seated at our table. Our waitress was a bit sarcastic or had a witty comments that didn't sit well with my kids. When ordering our foods, the kids asked what type of drinks they had since it was not listed on the menu. She said Coke but didn't elaborate that they had Coke products. Since she said Coke so fast our daughter didn't hear the response and asked her the question again where she just said that's a great question and ignored her and moved on. Food wise - we had the Peruvian ceviche, Peruvian chicken, I think I had a special grouper dish. The food was good. We were able to eat everything and the kids enjoyed their kids burger meals. Outside of the waitress comments, the place placed nice modern music to listen to and had the basketballs games playing on the tv at the bar.
