Pho Cali next door was closed, so we said what the hell, let’s try this thai place.
Ordered pad Thai, spicy fried rice. They were on point, just enough kick, not overly spicy.
Entree price was around $22-23 foe what we ordered, which is on the high side, but understandable due to downtown location. And it tasted great, so no problem there.
Took 1 star off bc the fried calamari we ordered was $10 and we weren’t too thrilled with it. It was such a small portion, and breading was not that impressive, giving it bland taste. I could probably make it better at home. Skip the calamari, go with something like crispy roll.
Also, ordered 2 bowls of steamed rice for the kiddo. $4.50 each for plain old rice. I think that’s a bit pricey. $2-3 would reasonable for plain rice imo.
All in all, happy with the experience, just don’t get the calamari. I’m willing to try other entrees next time.

Beep; Boop Beep!
Quaint little spot on Main Street. Service was great, attentive and friendly. We went with 4 stars because the Pad Thai was a little off base. It tasted good, but it’s wasn’t what we would consider authentic.
All in all, nice visit and good place to have a quiet meal.

Stopped in here for dinner around 8ish on a Saturday. Probably 3 other couples were here at the time so fairly empty. Decor is darker with nice ambient lighting. Plenty of room in the restaurant and they have a nice bar area and large flat screen. We had Utamaro a few nights before which was recommended highly but honestly this place and the food blew it out of the water. We got the Fiery, Like Mike and Fruitville rolls. All delicious and super fresh. Gulf sushi is creamier than NY sushi. Totally different taste but very very good. Highly recommended

Nim was an AMAZING waitress , served great food on time and very respectfully. I have never been downtown and this was by far the best sushi I’ve ever had. I got to meet Chang and he was also very nice. The atmosphere, the food, the service was incredible. I will definitely be back with more family and friends!! Thanks for the experience.

Came here for the first time today. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and very clean. We lucked out to have TC as our server. She was incredible. We took her recommendation on what to eat. We were blown away. Amazing food & truly incredible staff. Will absolutely be back & cannot recommend this place enough!!!

Great location, good service, really nice mix of Asian fusion cuisine. The sushi is good and so is the Thai. Great place to grab a table outside on Main Street if you come by when one is available.

Every thing is amazing about this Thai Bristo.
We went for lunch after a business meeting and had Chicken Pad Thai level one spiciness. I was not able to pause and take a picture after the first bite. So delicious and authentic. My colleagues had some Sushi and said the special rolls are outstanding. Highly recommend if you are on Main St. In Sarasota and want a decent bite. Oh by the way they have a full bar and the decoration and atmosphere is magnificent.

Food was amazing. Service was a bit slow but I was in no hurry so it didn’t affect too much.
Penang Curry was perfect flavor and portion size and the summer rolls were awesome! Will definitely be back.

I had a lovely lunch with my family at Drunken Poet. The ambiance was great, I liked the decor. The service was attentive. My favorites were the Thai chicken wings, and the sushi rolls were quite good as well. Looking forward to trying more dishes next time!
