Monk’s was founded January 2001. Voted one of Sarasota’s Best Raw Bars, we offer the finest Raw Oysters, as well as other fantastic shellfish appetizers. Our Oysters Monkefellas are one of the most popular items in Sarasota and nationally.​ Try our 2 lb. Jumbo Shrimp steamed with garlic butter and old bay seasoning, it’s fast becoming a new favorite. We also offer Mussels, Littleneck Clams, PeelNEat Shrimp, Snow Crab Legs and Crawfish.​ All items are available for take out, apart from the raw oysters.​ We are proudly a non-smoking environment. Enjoy our spacious outdoor covered patio where table service is available.

Too bad I can only leave 5 stars, or I'd rate this place 10. The monkey Eller oysters are as good, if not better than local oyster Rockefeller. The Bloody Mary was exceptional. Same for our wait...

The food and the staff are amazing! It's always a good time sitting at the bar, Pineapple and the guys are hilarious! The crawfish, oysters & shrimp never disappoint. Try a Tang shot, or 2!!

Super limited menu. Believe there is no real kitchen. They weren't fans of my "Service Dogs"

Great seafood... great service! Keeping the menu small and simple means EVERYTHING on it is done to perfection. It's a cute unassuming spot in a strip mall. These were the fattest oysters I've had...
