The lunch menu displayed on the storefront reflected $6 salmon side. Went inside to order and its $12...okay...we ordered salmon (tasted like it had been thawed in the microwave, water logged, needed salt), chicken, brussel sprouts (pretty good!), and the lemonade (tasty). But...not worth the money for a simple lunch. Wouldn't go back and wouldn't recommend. Read less

Our favorite Downtown Restaurant- wonderful food!

An Unforgettable GF & VG Dining Experience at Lila – Sarasota, FL Visiting from Ridgefield, CT, my wife Julie and I had the pleasure of dining at Lila during our trip to Sarasota for US Rowing Youth Nationals — and we were absolutely blown away. Julie follows a gluten-free and dairy-free diet, and this was hands down the best GF and DF dinner she has ever had. The flavors, presentation, and care put into each dish were exceptional. I ordered a regular entrée (the Green Circle Airline Chicken breast) and was equally impressed — it’s clear that Lila is dedicated to delivering a high-quality experience for all diners, no matter their dietary preferences. To top it all off, we shared the GF and DF Key Lime pie for dessert, and it was exquisite! — creamy, tangy, and the perfect finish to a memorable meal. Thank you, Lila, for making us feel so welcome and for proving that gluten-free and dairy-free food can be both indulgent and refined. We’ll be dreaming about this meal for a long time, and look forward to coming back! Read less

The ambiance and service at Lila were wonderful warm, inviting, and attentive. We really appreciated the chef’s effort to accommodate my request for a white cheese sauce with red sauce on the side. Unfortunately, the flavors didn’t quite meet our expectations. The red sauce lacked seasoning, and my husband felt the same about his soup. While we value the use of fresh, quality ingredients, the overall taste didn’t quite justify the high price point. Read less

salmon tacos were really tasty, and the highlight was their blueberry cheesecake desert. very nice and accommodating wait staff!

Delicious, well made food and calm atmosphere. We loved the guacamole and Brussel sprouts were great starters. I almost couldn’t finish the generous double decker mushroom burger. The falafel was to d... Read more

Delicious, well made food and calm atmosphere. We loved the guacamole and Brussel sprouts were great starters. I almost couldn’t finish the generous double decker mushroom burger. The falafel was to die for, so moist and flavorful. Read less
