I am traveling to visit my dad in a few weeks and that means we have a babysitter for our then 3 month old. It will be my husbands 30th birthday while visiting and I would like to take him to a really nice dinner somewhere that is:
romantic, preferably ocean view, seafood or steak place
We can travel to either Sarasota or Bradenton -- any recommendations?
Re: NBR: Romantic Sarasota/Bradenton resturants?
Just off the top of my head ...
My husband and I are fans of the Beachhouse - we live in Bradenton, and it's our go-to beach restaurant. There are often weddings there, but it's very family friendly, so I'm not sure I'd call it romantic. It has two nearby sister restaurants - we've been to the Sand Bar, which seems a bit more cozy to me but equally yummy and gorgeous, on the water ...
We've also eaten at Mattison's (we've only been to the Riverside location, but they have several in the area) and the atmosphere is definitely nice, although depending on which one you go to you might not be gulf front. We went there for an anniversary dinner.

There's also the Chart House on Longboat Key. https://www.chart-house.com/. The food is delicious but a little more expensive than other places. Mattison's Riverside is awesome!
