Z's Restaurant And Bar - Sarasota

The place is pretty cool and they have some good happy hour specials. The drink is a good size for the price you pay, and they are not weak. The staff is friendly and helpful. They also offer food with an interesting menu and European Flare. I had the blue Calamari and it was pretty good. Relaxing atmosphere with several TVs. The place is next to Smokin Joe's, but I like the atmosphere at Z's better.

Bartender very nice girl, 5 star service, good food, good alco. The biggest nachos I've ever had!

My husband and I just moved from Boston. Looking for a place to eat. We went to Z's they advertised lunch special roast beef with frits... Food was great!!! Home made Fön Fritten and the roast beef was so fresh with roasted bread..so delicious my husband got a Bacon Burger, he said it was brilliant!! Jaime, the bartender is the best!! She was very social with us, made sure that we were satisfied with everything. Jaime is a jem behind the bar!! Great food and great service!!! Thanks Jaime for the best lunch and service!! Z's you got a great bartender and the cook definitely knows what he does, as the food was great!! Will be back.

Delicious food you can't find! I had the steak salad with one side of bread and the steak strips were juicy/savory and the salad was fresh with delicious dijon dressing. I wish I had more steak strips, but oh good. The uniqueness of this restaurant is that it also has some Balkan style menus like the Balkanwurst (Keben) that is a delicacies!

Brittany was working the entire bar and seating area solo, and handling it like a champ. The food was great, and the band was rock solid.
