Marina Jack

Had a great lunch with my son celebrating his achievements. We loved our experience from beginning to end. From the kindest valet John, to our attentive serving group. We enjoyed our view and enjoyed our selections. Drinks, appetizers, sandwiches and dessert 😋

Great stop for lunch during a visit to the area. Plenty of menu items and beverages to choose from and enjoy. Good parking, ample seating inside and some seating outside. Views of the marina are nice. Service was efficient and friendly, prices were fair for the quality. Delicious and relaxing lunch.

Excellent place. I decided to start off with grilled octopus. Very delicious. The main course was Roasted Duck. Wonderful taste. Staff was friendly. Had a beautiful seat next to the window with a great view. Definitely will be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone.

The place was great. Nice atmosphere across the water. Coconut shrimp and black and blue tuna were absolutely delicious. Great drinks. Great experience.

Thank you so much for making our wonderful church group Feel like kings and queens. The service from Jesus and Marta was amazing. The food was fabulous. What a memorable day thank you so much.

Loved the atmosphere and view. Service was great! Really enjoyed the apperizer. Dinner was hot, looked amazing, and tasted great. Key lime pie hit the spot perfectly. Awesome experience.

Stunning views of the Sarasota Bay. Excellent menu and well prepared food. Everything was fresh and delicious. Our server was everything you needed her to be, prompt, courteous, and explained everything properly.

Been here about half a dozen times and surprised I haven’t left a review here since it’s my favorite place to grab lunch on a nice day.

Plenty of healthy options on the menu for a warmer day but also enough variety to tickle your fancy.

I always sit on the dock since it’s covered and really has the best view of the bay compared to any restaurant I’ve been to in downtown SRQ

The staff is very friendly , atmosphere is laid-back food is fantastic my first time at Marina Jack, blue sunshine patio grill

Absolutely amazing view & service. The food was hot & delicious! We were here for a work event and the food was still great in large quantity!

A covered outdoor experience in a real marina overlooking the bay. We had the Baked Oyster Rockefeller and the Angus cheese burger for lunch. Really pleasant atmosphere, the weather was perfect for some of the more outdoor tables but all are covered. It is recommended to use the valet parking.

My wife and I ate here last week. The location is fantastic! Right on the water and by the dock. I had the California chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. The meal was so big I almost could not finish it. It was tasty. My wife had a fried shrimp dish that she really liked. The service was good. we have been here before and will be back.

Came here for happy hour and was thrilled at the quality and delicious bites! We ordered 3/4 items on the HH menu: salmon sliders, corn ribs , and ropa vieja tacos. I haven’t found anything on their menu I didn’t like. Great food and atmosphere. Nice breeze outside even on hot days. Love the view of the marina!

If you go at the time they open, then it’s a very peaceful experience… perfect for an early lunch overlooking the marina

Very upscale, nice. One of the best dinners I have had.
Overlooking Sarasota Bay

What an amazing restaurant! Service is great, food is awesome. Had the surf and turf, delicious! The carrot cake is definitely a must have. Great eating in Sarasota

Recommendations for a must stop ! Tonight I’m adding the photos of a perfect fillet mignon tender delicious and generous , I am a purist when it comes to beef I don’t like sauces on my meats however this filet had a mushroom black pepper sauce that is still making my mouth water just writing about it I cleaned the sauce with my roasted potato , the CRAB CAKES are still tops with it’s dipping sauce ! The coconut shrimp are big loaded with coconut & an orange sweet dipping sauce . My shrimp cocktail again big and the presentation you’ll see is beautiful . The service still never disappoints .

This was left in 2021 . MARINA JACKS ! this has it all out door deck inside bar upstairs fine dining live music . Now we’ve eaten everywhere and let me just say this was BEYOND EXQUISITE ! The freshness the presentation the QUALITY . If you ever go to Sarasota EAT AT JACKS ! You’ll thank me . The scallops in a coconut ginger sauce drizzled around a mound of jasmine rice with a garlic sautéed spinach and these are fresh dry sea scallops . The shrimp as well with a pasta were large fresh firm and tasty . And the coconut shrimp appetizers to die for . Also the New England clam which was just off the charts maybe the best I’ve ever tasted ever !! the executive chef really knows what good food is . And the crab cake … well big chunks of lump Blue Claw Crab meat that I haven’t seen the likes of anywhere but in Maryland .. clean fast service high quality deliciously prepared by what are clearly experts in culinary art . If you go to Sarasota this is a must stop for setting the bar on culinary delights . I Have been here before a few times and every time it just gets better than the last. Bella the waitress, thank you ! Marina Jacks you will always be five stars in my guide book . Thanks for the refreshing experience looking forward to dining here again .

We did the sunset dinner cruise for a work event. It was wonderful! Staff was very friendly, from booking to departing the boat!

My husband and I came to eat dinner here on a Tuesday night. I order the salmon with quinoa salad and sweet potato waffle fries. I loved it. The salmon had mangos on top and tasted amazing. My husband had the chipotle BBQ ribs with asparagus and sweet potato waffle fries. He loved the BBQ ribs. We also had the clam chowder and key lime pie. Both were great. The key lime pie was one of my favorites that I had and had a drizzle of raspberry on it. I thought it was a perfect touch. If I come back to this area, I will come back to this restaurant. I loved sitting next to the water.

Beautiful marina with amazing waterfront views of Sarasota. The marina has three restaurants. We decided to eat at the Blue Sunshine Patio Bar. We enjoyed a delicious Caesar salad along with the grouper tacos. For dessert we enjoyed the famous key lime pie. Food was served promptly and cooked perfectly. Our server was friendly and attentive. The views were breathtaking!
