Dinner Selections

Mike Kodra, began his restaurant career in Chicago, 1965. He along with his two sons, Rick and Bill,  founded Rosebuds in 1995 continuing the tradition of a true restaurant family. 

We strive for service, quality, and consistency. We have been referred to by many patrons as a "well oiled machine." We can handle high volume without sacrificing quality or consistency. With a warm, inviting and energetic atmosphere, Rosebud’s is a seriously successful restaurant with a stellar reputation on the south end of Sarasota that is truly worth the drive. A quaint and cozy but lively bar where you can come to hang-out with good friends, or just kick back with a good glass of wine or cognac.

We specialize and feature aged, hand-cut, Black Angus steaks, paired with our signature burgundy mushroom sauce. We have a wide selection of fresh seafood, chicken and veal sautés -- prepared the Rosebud’s way.

Rick (owner/chef) is constantly creating new dishes with fresh ingredients and personal touches using what is in season, Ipswich clams, mussels, stone crabs, and live Maine lobster (only during season).

We are a restaurant that still believes a salad should always be served with dinner. Some Rosebud’s favorites;

  • Signature Prime Rib
  • Grouper Macadamia
  • Shrimp Adriatic
  • Brie in Phyllo
  • Buffalo Shrimp Plank
  • Escargot en Croute

Some dessert favorites are;

  • Creme Brulee ... the best you'll have this side of Paris!
  • Key Lime Pie that is truly something to write home about!
  • Decadent Bananas Foster... maybe with Cappuccino or port wine.
