Staff:
Ken Davis, General Manager/Proprietor of Barnacle Bill's. Ken and his brother Bill Davis own and run the three Barnacle Bill's in Sarasota. If you are looking for delicious seafood then BB's is a must.
Ken in front of BB's fresh seafood counter. If you love seafood and only want the freshest BB's prepares it fresh or you can take your own home to cook.
Your friendly hostess will greet you and seat you.
Barnacle Bill's has long term staff which speaks to their quality of service and loyalty to the fine food served.
Summary:
If you want simple or elaborately prepared seafood that will light up your taste buds then BB's is the place to go. You'll find clean, friendly, and some of the best food in our area bar none. We would put them up against the finer dining restaurants in a heart beat (and they would probably win you over with their epicurean delights!!!)
Soup:
Love your soup, love BB's Lobster Bisque, lobster stock simmered in a cream and sherry, garnished with lobster and a biscuit on top.
Salad:
Casear salad on the left, with crisp romaine lettuce, grated cheese, Casear dressing. On the right, House Fresh Green salad with baby field greens, raspberry walnut vinaigrette, garnished with toasted walnuts. Delicious and healthy.
Main Course:
A house specialty, Seafood Strudel, lobster, crab, shrimp and scallops simmered in a savory seafood veloute baked in phyllo pastry and garnished with lobster sauce. Double yum.
If you love fish then try their Swordfish, Tuna or Halibut Grenoble, char grilled, and topped with artichoke hearts, asparagus, sun dried tomatoes and shrimp. Finished with lemon garlic and white wine. Potatoes topped with an tasty and interesting potato waffle.
Desert:
Keep it simple. Baracle Bill's serves two deserts, Key Lime pie and yum cheesecake.
