The service and food was delicious and impeccable. Oli, the host/owner was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and personable. His passion for food made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. This is an absolute must-go.

What a delicious and welcoming restaurant. The food and service are terrific. Olivier and Angela deliver, from such an unassuming exterior, an intimate and warm expression of food love. We drove over 30 minutes for our first visit and it definitely will become a regular occurrence for us!

Antoine’s is easily one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to (my wife agrees). A hidden gem and well worth a visit.

My wife and I were have a pre-anniversary getaway for the weekend in Sarasota. Never been to that area before I took a chance on an unassuming little restaurant located in a strip mall next to a Dominoes of all places. Talk about a diamond in the rough. My wife loves mussels, it’s her favorite food – when I was looking for a place to dine our first night in town, the 10 different preparations of mussels was all I needed, along with some good reviews.

From the time we stepped through the doorway into Antoine’s our expectations were blown away by the service, the ambience and decor and of course – the food. Greeted warmly by our maître d’ Olivier, who we soon found out was also the owner along with his wife Angela, he ushered us to our table with a friendliness and effortless hospitality. We felt like we had been transported to a small intimate restaurant in France being welcomed by an old friend. By the time we left we felt like we were indeed old friends.

We started with the Caesar salad and mushroom delight. Before we received our starters they brought out a delicious amuse bouche – a tiny bowl of vegetable bisque and house made rolls. It was a small delectable taste, foreshadowing the level of flavor we would soon be enjoying throughout our meal. The mushroom delight was indeed incredibly delightful (ask for a small serving of the house made baguette to be served with it). It was in a creamy garlic sauce and the taste was incredible. It was honestly difficult to restrain myself from licking the plate clean. The salad, was simply the best Caesar salad I had been served (my wife as well). Small house made buttery croutons, dressing and absolutely packed with shaved Parmigiano Reggiano, the romaine was cut into smaller pieces. From the smallest detail everything had careful thought put into it.

The house made rolls were hot, light and airy. Hard to describe how delicate and flavorful they were but so easy to eat with the salted butter sourced from Europe.

My wife selected Angela’s favorite Mussels for her entree. I picked the 9oz filet with blue cheese sauce on the side. First you must understand my wife is nothing short of a mussel aficionado. It’s her favorite food item and very rarely will not order them if they are available on a menu. These rose to the top as her all time favorite. Served properly with home made fries. The fries themselves were incredible, you could tell they double cooked the fries, which is the absolute correct way to make them in my opinion.

My thick 9oz filet was perfectly seared and cooked. The blue cheese sauce was incredible, I was not disappointed.

Finally if that wasn’t all enough we ended with dessert – Profiteroles with Sea Salt Caramel Ice Cream and Belgian Chocolate drizzle. Wow, wow, wow.

Neither my wife nor I could stop thinking about the incredible meal we had, but more then that the incredible experience we had. We talked about it that night and the next morning. We decided to go back on Saturday night as well! It did not disappoint the second night. We made a few different selections but suffice to say everything, just everything was delicious and warm and inviting.

It was 2 nights of smiles, laughter and taking our time with our courses. Never once feeling rushed. Our server was Edwin was equally hospitably and friendly. Both Olivier and Edwin provided excellent suggestions for both wine and meal selections. We truly felt we got to know them well, it was such an incredible and memorable experience. We did not have the pleasure of meeting Angela. She was cooking in the back everything to absolute perfection.

I could not think of a place I would more highly recommend in all of Florida. We very much enjoyed Sarasota but we loved Antoine’s. It is the main reason we want to get back to Sarasota soon!

Excellent classic cuisine in an admittedly very unassuming spot. Prices are a little high, but the food quality is well worth it, you certainly won’t find many hidden gems like this around Sarasota. Being located inside a strip mall, I was skeptical at first, but the food was incredibly tasty, service was very friendly, and every bite was made with love. Delicious, worth the price tag, and makes for an excellent dinner experience.

We enjoyed a fantastic meal! Olivier makes every guest feel special while his wife prepares world class cuisine. The mushrooms, scallops and profiteroles all wowed us as well as an incredible amuse-bouche. We can’t wait to return!

This restaurant consistently delivers 5* food over and over. It is not well known yet it is absolutely one of the best restaurants in Sarasota. It is so unpretentious on the outside but the moment you enter you are welcomed as if a family guest. While renown for mussels the other entrees hit their mark. Excellent selection of wines as well. You will not be disappointed.

Fantanstic restaurant. Service and food was thoughtful and delicious. All staff members were terrific and on point. Our host and owner Olivia (hope i spelled correctly:)) were perfect in explaining the menu to spacing and serving our meals. Ill let the pictures speak for themselves as the food taste and quality matched its appearance. Will return many times to try the other exciting menu items i was not able eat on one visit. A true special boutique restaurant

Antiones is definitely one of the best restaurants in Sarasota. It may be off the beaten path but worth making the trip from the beaches or downtown. It’s a small quaint restaurant that prefers quality over quantity. The chef works the kitchen by herself putting out dishes with meticulous detail. Everything we have had there has been delicious. Wednesday is all you can eat mussels and they always have many options to try.
