Reviews Summary

Tripletail Seafood & Spirits is praised for its outstanding, fresh seafood and elegant yet friendly atmosphere. Diners consistently highlight the attentive staff and the enjoyable dining experience, particularly on the climate-controlled patio. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few mention that some dishes, like the lobster mac and cheese, could benefit from more sauce, and plate presentation could be improved given the pricing.

"Stumbled into this elegant, friendly, inviting, and delicious place. Staff was very nice, attentive, super knowledgeable, and enhanced a lovely experience.

The seafood was outstanding. Bacon wrapped scallops were great. Crispy bacon with buttery perfectly cooked scallops. The pasta was cooked great and so was seafood which they did not skimp. Stuffed triple tail was amazing.

A great find for sure!"

Jon Glover

"1st time here. WOW! Excellent all around. Friendly staff. Food was phenomenal. Best calamari appetizer I've ever had. They actually give you a whole portion. Other restaurants are just a small taster. Had the special for the night, Tripletail dinner. Cook to Perfection. Place is very clean. Saturday outside, even better. Definitely coming back again. Highly recommend to anyone in the Sarasota Area."

Jeffery Lawnicki

"We had an incredible dinning experience in Sarasota! As visitors from Minnesota, we were excited to try some fresh seafood and we stumbled upon the perfect spot. The meal exceeded our expectations and the highlight of the evening was meeting the owners, who were so nice and welcoming. We can’t wait to explore more of their restaurants in the future! Highly recommend."

Shuck yeah! These are the best oysters around Sarasota

Happy hour at Tripletail calls for three oysters on the half shell ($10).
