Had dinner at Cafe L'Europe when in the area this past March. The waiter was exceptional, attentive and helpful with suggestions but not hovering. The salmon with risotto and spinach was FABULOUS, and I am not usually crazy about risotto. Atmosphere was quiet and intimate. We had a wonderful evening. There were people in all manner of dress, but I... more

Having walked round St Armands Circle during the day, we identified Cafe L'Europe as a restaurant we would try in the evening - it looked like a classy establishment and had an interesting menu. As we left our hotel that evening the doorman asked where we were going for dinner and remarked 'It's good, but not as good as it... more

As a Sarasota 'local' for 20 years, now, I can tell you that Cafe L 'Europe is widely thought of as one of the finest restaurants in town. (and, that's saying something) It sits next to The Columbia, so close that it almost shares a space, and between the two establishments if you're visiting our town *this* will be the... more

We had booked another resturant on Lido Beach for our silver wedding anniversary but when we got there realised it was not what we wanted. So we left and got a taxi to take us to Armand Circle. We found this resturant and was pleased that they were able to take six of us without a booking. There was a... more

Sitting in the heart of St Armands Circle. This restaurant has been in business for over 30 years and still exudes a great sense of style and class. I highly recommend the patio seating to enjoy dinner while over looking the circle. The service is beyond compare. I have never had an empty glass or empty plate. Highly recommend the... more
