What a cool space off the main downtown sarasota strip! Pleasantly surprised when we walked in. Large outdoor area with space heaters and large TV (should put a few more to draw in sports fanatics wanting to watch multiple games). Outdoor area nicely transitions to inside seating and bar with garage door style entry. The staff were super friendly and the owner introduced himself to pretty much every patron there which was a nice touch. Prices are reasonable. Food was awesome. Ordered sliders and chicken wings. The drinks were tasty as well. There was a band playing Saturday night. They offer brunch specials and have an open mic night and trivia night. I stink at trivia but maybe a bingo night may be fun! highly recommend.

Really solid folks and food at this establishment. I normally order their special, which included a pimento cheese burger and tots for 12, as well as a draft modelo. It’s exactly the meal I need after playing pickleball nearby. Bonus points added for the bartender holding my wallet after I had left it there the other night.

Love this place! Good cocktails, good menu (awesome sliders) friendly staff and dog friendly! They even have a doggo menu! We popped in during happy hour, it is totally worth a trip downtown. Live music too...

Another outstanding restaurant my wife and I wish we had tried sooner. Their happy hour specials from 4pm - 6pm are great. From the beer prices to the food there is nothing to not like about Tamiami Tap. We sat at the bar and were greeted immediately by the bar staff. After ordering our drinks we looked over the menu and decided to order from the Happy Hour options. My wife chose the chicken tenders with fries, while I went with the sliders. I had to order a side of fries since the sliders did not come with. However, the price of the sliders and fries was still less than the burger and fries that are on the regular menu. My wife's chicken was seasoned very well, and was battered just right. The sliders had an amazing flavor with a soft bun. That side of fries? It could easily have been shared by two, maybe three people, it was so large. Their seasoning was also spot on. The sliders were so good I ordered a second offering of them, much to the dismay of my diet. The atmosphere offered a laid back, relaxing feel and, being a Saturday early evening, we were able to enjoy the wonderful live music. It may have taken us quite a while to finally try Tamiami Tap but rest assured it will not be long until we go again.

Such an amazing and wonderful gem that we stumbled upon tonight. Food was fresh, tasty, and memorable. Ridiculous beer selection. The owner, Randy stopped by and was kind and helpful. We canceled our plans for tomorrow night just to try more of this menu. You need to hurry to this place. Trust me. (Where I come from, ridiculous means great)

We LOVE Tamiami Tap! Sundays are our day because they open earlier (we are early birds!) - love that they have gluten free options, and a great drink menu. And love the covered outdoor seating option. Food is always terrific, as well as the service. The only thing I would change would be opening early on Saturdays too!
