Probably one of the most beautiful places you can go to eat on the water. It’s usually our last stop on our way home when we travel. The water is SO turquoise, and you can see so many animals. This last time we saw a dolphin VERY close to where we were sitting. It was amazing. Plus the food is always amazing. It’s definitely hard to leave. You just want to sit and stare at the water all day.

I typically stay away from giving bad reviews but I feel the restaurant would appreciate an honest review. With that said, our waitress Ella was fantastic. We got a nice table (waited only 10 min) and the views and atmosphere are absolutely beautiful. ‘Loved the bar, and honestly every table had great views. The problem was the food we ordered two baskets of fried shrimp and fries. The portion was extremely small. I believe I had about 10 fries and 5 tiny shrimp that were literally dripping oil. I had to use the napkins to squeeze the oil out a bit. The bottom of the basket was soaked in oil. Something must have gone wrong in the kitchen I guess. We ate and didn’t complain about this, but this dish was simply awful.

We absolutely love this Old Salty Dog location near St. Armands Circle in Sarasota.
The restaurant is waterfront and right next to a marina/boat yard and marine center. There are always boats being launched, refueling, or just cruising by. On a sunny day, it is a perfect waterfront spot in Sarasota to boat watch.
The Pelicans are always swooping for fish and putting on a show for restaurant guests. You can also occasionally see jelly fish, we just saw a couple hundred swimming by on our last visit.
Rain or shine, Old Salty Dog is always worth a visit. The patio gets the perfect amount of sun on a sunny day with light sun shades, a gulf breeze, and the perfect sunset back drop. On rainy days, you might have to wait a minute for an inside table or seat at the bar because they stay busy, but it is worth the wait.
As the name implies, they are known for their deep fried hot dogs and dog bites which are always a favorite. The burgers also hit the spot for a change up and the seafood doesn’t disappoint. If you’re looking for a frozen drink on a hot day, a delicious rum runner, or just a beer they have something for everyone.
The parking lot gets full pretty quick with limited spaces while they are working on the building next door, but additional lots are across the street and a short 2 minute walk.
We’d highly recommend Old Salty Dog for a casual waterfront restaurant in Sarasota with good food, good drinks, and the ability to come in your swim suit by boat or car.

If you want the beach vibe while eating dinner this is the place for it. If you imagine having a drink with the weather breeze blowing on you then look no further. Sitting there while a boat floats by, a pelican lands 10 ft from you, and seeing a rainbow was amazing. The food wasn’t amazing, but the atmosphere makes up for it. I got a hamburger and an order of the Salty dog nuggets. I had a wonderful time eating here.

We had a stunning lunch here. Everything was super fresh and crisp. Best lobster roll I’ve had in a long time and their sweet potato fries were delicious. Service was friendly and super attentive. Robbie was so sweet and great at serving us. We saw a manatee swimming right by us and lots of fish, jelly fish and dolphins in the distance. Amazing location for the perfect relaxing lunch on the water.

Always a favorite when we are in town. Good food, reasonably priced and a definitely kid friendly. Crab dip was delicious and so was the grouper sandwiches. Lots of fresh fruit with our kid’s meals as well. The kids love looking out at the water and checking out the boats the Mote uses for research.

It’s a fun, laid-back stop with a great location and classic beach-bar energy. It’s an easy place to roll in casual, grab a bite, and enjoy the atmosphere. The food is solid and dependable, making it a good option when you want something familiar and low-pressure.

The atmosphere was top notch with seating right along the water. Came in around noon on a Tuesday. Service was attentive, but not overwhelmingly pushy. Food was fine, major plus for sweet potato waffle fries. Adaptable menu for a variety of diets and allergies.

After a day of apartment hunting we were hungry and The Old Salty Dog was right on our route and super convenient. We got some mozzarella sticks, burger with fries and the hotdog bites. Not super excited about the hog dog bites Sadly but we were so hungry it served a purpose. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was perfect to end the day. I would love to stop back when I come back to the area.
