A great little restaurant in the heart of downtown Sarasota. Wife and I went for an early 15 yr anniversary dinner. She was so excited by the Gluten Free menu, we pretty much tried as much as we could, and have vowed to return as soon as possible. Food was amazing. So flavorful! Highly recommend this lovely little restaurant.

Wow! This place was absolutely amazing. We came in on a Friday night at around 8pm without reservation and were immediately met by the enthusiastic GM Jordan who made us feel extremely comfortable and welcomed and sat us right away! We then had Jimmy as our server who was an absolute pleasure - he gave amazing recommendations and was extremely attentive and helpful. The sangrias are amazing. Not too sweet. We started with the Cobia ceviche ~ I could have picked up the bowl and drank it it was that good. Then my boyfriend had the NY strip, I had the scallops (per Jimmy’s rec) & we had the elote as a side. It was delicious and well-worth the cost! Highly recommend this new spot downtown!!!

The food, superb. The service, superb. Quite literally everything, superb. As someone with celiac I’m so unbelievably happy with this place. Allan was awesome, the knowledge and know how of everything on the menu was truly something else. I’m so glad I listened to everything he had to say with recommendations. It DID NOT disappoint.

Absolutely obsessed with this place! It’s become one of my favorite spots, especially for espresso martinis. Both the alcoholic version and the mocktail are incredible. We even became friends with the bartender, and he surprised us with seasonal espresso martinis that were out of this world. A hint of hazelnut and cinnamon. Truly to die for. 😉 The cilantro honey and lime yogurt is heavenly. It has the perfect balance of sweet and sour, with this bright freshness from the fruit that ties everything together so beautifully. I also have to talk about their elote. This is honestly the only place I’ve found that actually has elote on the menu, and they do it perfectly. For my main, I got the ancho & chile beef tips and they were incredible. Perfectly cooked, full of rich, smoky flavor, and so well-seasoned that every bite was better than the last. Pair it with their homemade hot sauce (you have to ask for it) and it becomes insane. The heat, the depth, the savoriness. It just an unforgettable combination. If you’re thinking about going—go. This place nails it every single time

Recently went for brunch, and it was just as delicious as dinner! We love this place. I was so excited about my chilaquiles, I forgot to take a before picture. It was so good!! We also got the potatoes to share and they were incredible. Unique and delicious -- savory, but with a brightness you don't usually get with breakfast potatoes. They have a 100% Gluten Free kitchen! They do have beer, so there is some gluten in the place but it's localized at the bar and they are very careful if you mention Celiac or an allergy.

Great experience great food! Had the fried chicken and fresh catch for the day, muy delicioso!!! Espresso martini was not good, but it's not a place to serve liquor so that makes sense. Great staff Great environment! Highly recommend!!

My husband and I are Sarasota locals. We are very discerning about where we eat out as we have a high standard for the quality of ingredients- local, whole food, and organic are a priority for us. As such there are just a small handful of restaurants historically that our body feels good after we have a meal. We are delighted to add Comida to our go-to list as we were very impressed at how fresh, flavourful and CLEAN their food is. The whole menu is free from seed oils, processed food, and gluten (read: glyphosate). While the menu offers a lot of choices for carnivores and vegetarians alike, we were so pleased that there were so many plant forward options. We loved the variety of home made sauces and dressings that accompanied our dishes. Every creation was fun, colorful, and delicious. Aside from the quality of the food- the interaction with the staff and manager was a very positive draw to want to come back. They are earnest in connecting with their clients and making a personal connection to round out the experience.

I took my daughter to Comida for brunch and it was such a great experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is bright, modern, and welcoming — perfect for a weekend treat. My yogurt bowl was super fresh and full of flavor, and my daughter absolutely loved the donuts (she said they were better than Dunkin’, which is saying a lot!). The service was friendly, everything came out quickly, and the whole vibe just felt happy and relaxed. It was the perfect little mother-daughter date spot. We’ll definitely be back!

A breathe of fresh air. Following an amazing afternoon at the circus, we decided to give a try to one of the recent addition to the Sarasota restaurant scene, intrigued by their gluten free menu. Well cheers to a new favorite. The food was nothing less than amazing. Excellent quality of the ingredients ( the tuna was outstanding), and the portions was enough to allow sharing in tapas style. A mention also for the drinks both the classics and the proof zero ones. Last but not the least, a real espresso to make this Italian happy.
