St Armands Cirlcle: Cork Restaurant

If you have a home or condo on Lido Key, Longboat Key or Bird Key, chances are you’ve been to Cork on St Armands Circle. Cork is one of the new bright spots on the Circle and quite popular with many locals. Sarasota magazine recently named Cork the "Best New Restaurant." Jeff Trefry, Executive Chef, adds his experience and culinary gifts to bring metropolitan cuisine to Sarasotans palates.


If you're in the mood of fish, try the seared mahi fillet with celery root puree. It’s a hit and a favorite of many diners. Located at 29 N. Boulevard of the Presidents on St. Armands Circle, Cork is just above the Bottle Shop.

St. Armands’s has many popular restaurants, but Cork Restaurant is exceptional. Buy a bottle of great wine to enjoy at home from the Bottle Shop on your way back to your Longboat Key home! If you can’t get a table at Cork, try Columbia, Hemingway’s Retreat or the always popular Columbia Restaurant.
