The staff is pretty good but the waiting time is absolutely horrible. We were a group of 13 people and we’ve been waiting for over 90 minutes before we even received our starters.
We finally got our main courses. We ordered a few burgers, some of them cooked medium-well, and some of them well-done. Additionally, one medium-well burger was supposed to be without the sauce. I ordered a well-done burger, but ended up receiving a medium-well one. As it turned out, everyone else got a medium-well burger, but we didn’t know about that until we tasted it, because our servers had no idea which burger was whose. Little did I know that I would also not get any sauce, because the order was so messed up, and it was too late to exchange it with the right person. I ended up truly dissatisfied.

We had dinner here the night we arrived. Both of our entrees were mediocre – spaghetti bolognese could have been from a jar and the guanciale was tough. We asked if we could split a salad – the waitress was surly, asked what we were ordering first, then failed to tell us that she would tack on a $10 plating fee to split a $14 salad. My drink had no bourbon in it (bourbon has a distinct flavor). There are many wonderful restaurants on the key. This is not one of them. We did have a great view of the sunset, which they did not screw up. The hotel is otherwise well run by the way.

Vieto Restaurant had a great vibe and an even better view—absolutely stunning at sunset. The service was wonderful and very attentive. We started with the brie appetizer, which was delicious and a great way to kick off the meal. For our main, we shared the chicken and gnocchi. It was good, but we both felt it needed a sauce or something extra to bring it all together. One big downside: the no-see-ums made it hard to enjoy the outdoor experience, so I’d recommend sitting indoors after sunset. Lastly, I ordered the warm chocolate cake listed on the dessert menu but was served a cold one instead. The waiter was just as confused as I was and said the menu was incorrect. For a high-end restaurant, that kind of mistake felt surprising

Amazing place to dine! My boyfriend and I were staying at Zota and decided to try viento and it was amazingly delicious. Hands down best gnocchi I’ve had, different & unique taste. The service was great, our server was very nice and explained the menu very good. 100% recommended. Desserts were also great!

I had such a lovely experience here with my family staying at this resort. For dinner we started off with the calamari and chilled ahi & crab. They were both very delicious, I highly recommended the chilled ahi & crab – the pineapple mixed in really well with the flavors of the fish.
Main entrees included the filet, salmon, and SHRIMP A L’AMERICAINE. They were all delicious, everyone enjoyed their meals. It was my first time having risotto and it was delicious with the shrimp/lobster cream sauce. Amazing flavors.
The 10/10 FINISHER was the creme brûlée, holy cow!! It was just perfect. We ordered one but it was so good that we had two. Highly recommend eating dinner here. Had a great time.

Had an awesome time at Venti Kitchen and Bar! Sharon was our server and she was amazing—super friendly, attentive, and always made sure we were taken care of. Food and vibe were great too. Definitely coming back!

We stopped here to grab something to eat quickly like an appetizer and just have one drink. It was a bit confusing because at first we went to the bar/ eating area by the pool. But what we actually wanted was on the second floor. It’s a very small restaurant but it does have different types of seating. Just not a lot of people can be there at once. One of the most negative things about the place had nothing to do with the employees. There was a very large party behind us that had more children than adults and they were extremely loud (the children, not the adults). And the adults let them run around and scream and behave badly. The adults just sat there and talked the whole time, not realizing the rest of the restaurant was not having a good experience. But that being said, it was a nice place. The bartender was very friendly except for when he took my drink and plate of food before I was finished with it. He dashed away before I could even say anything. There wasn’t a lot to choose from on the menu so I’m not sure everyone in your party will find something they would like to eat. But it was a nice place. And the food actually was pretty good. We weren’t staying at the hotel but I think it would be nice to have a place like this if you were staying at this resort. It seemed like the facilities were very well taken care of. I would probably try it again.

Staying at the Opal Zota Beach Resort and after a long day of travel, we decided to eat on property at Viento Kitchen and Bar. What a great choice that was! Beautiful restaurant with fabulous views of the Gulf. Service was attentive and knowledgeable. Our server suggested all of the best options and we fortunately followed. The crab cakes are made in house and were perfectly crisp on the outside and filled with lush crab meat inside (no tiny shells either). Also had the homemade daily focaccia bread…also amazing. Although feeling a little full, we had to try the halibut entree and the fish tacos.
Halibut was prepared to perfection with a side of au gratin potatoes….mmmm!! The chef came out and checked on our experience. Humble and talented gentleman.
Don’t miss the mint chocolate martini and the Zota-Rita!
Would suggest eating here any time.

Everything about our experience here was excellent. We ordered the Filet Mignon and the fettuccine Alfredo with blackened chicken. We were beyond impressed. Honestly, best meal we have had in a long time. The view was also beautiful. Sad we didn’t try this restaurant until our last night!

We stayed at Zota for 3 nights and ate here several times. The buffet breakfast is good and economical. Dinner is very good. We had the grouper, snapper, roasted chicken (with excellent risotto) and shrimp with grits. Pretty much tried everything on the menu. The seafood was fresh and well prepared, comparable or better than the other fancy restaurants in Longboat key (we went to others around the area)
