Sarasota-Manatee Originals Member Restaurants Open on Thanksgiving.
This Thanksgiving you might not want to take on the cooking and cleanup of a multi-course meal and would rather spend the time with the family. Well, you're in luck. This year, stellar restaurants across Florida's Suncoast will be serving meals for all those who would rather quite literally leave the holiday cooking to the pros.
EAT OUT
From historic downtown Venice to the beaches of Anna Maria Island, your best Thanksgiving dining-out options include these locally-owned, independent restaurants in Sarasota and Manatee Counties. Open and welcoming guests on Thursday November 28, some will be serving holiday "specials" while some will have turkey and all the fixins. Some will serve a la carte, others prix fixe menus and others are offering a buffet. Reservations are encouraged at most of these restaurants. Check with each restaurant for exact offerings, menus and prices.
