Seafood
The place
Stroke's Seafood fries North Sarasota's fish the neighborhood way — ★4.5 across 350 reviews on North Osprey, a world away from the marina-priced seafood the city shows visitors. No website.
Sarasota's seafood economy points at tourists — marina views, market prices, valet. Stroke's points at neighbors: fried fish plates, shrimp baskets, and Gulf standards done right on North Osprey Avenue at prices the neighborhood sets. The ★4.5 across 351 reviews is Newtown and North Sarasota keeping their own.
It joins Tripletail as our second Sarasota seafood listing and the first from the city's north side — the half of Sarasota the guidebooks pretend isn't there, eating better than the guidebooks know.
What to expect
Counter-casual, fried-to-order — the wait is the quality control. Fish plates and shrimp baskets anchor. $ to $$-light. Carryout-friendly.
