First Trip to Spring Training

[BamaOsFan]

We stay on Siesta Key. Great beaches. The water is pretty cold in March, but you can get in for a bit as long as the wind is not blowing (which is mostly during the day). Siesta key has quite a few restaurants, shops and clubs.

A place we have found that has very good food and prices is Kacey's Seafood @ 4904 Fruitville Rd.  Not far from the stadium. It's in a strip mall and doesn't look like much, but it was recommended by more than a couple locals. Highly recommended.

Another recommended one is Columbia on Armands Circle.

Downtown on (Main Street) has Barnacle Bill's (seafood), Mattison's City Grille and others. All good.

Not an expert but have been down 4 or 5 times since the O's have called Sarasota home. It's a great area. The stadium is awesome, people are nice and the weather is beautiful. What more can you ask for?

Columbia is wonderful.
