What a great BBQ-type place to find in Sarasota!!! Lived in KC for many year and enjoyed the best! Even served BBQ at my daughter's wedding ! The sauce "finishes" the hard work of the pit master. Ya gotta have both working together for an unforgettable experience! The folks at Snook H have that kinda mojo going for them! The sides must stand up to the meat and its sauce. Snook aced that as well!!! Sides are large servings to compliment the main course. Salads are ginormous! Craft beer is offered along with the other beverage options. It was magical..the meats, the sauce, the sides. Oh, yea, and great service! It is worth the ride..I'll be back...SOON!!!
This is the kind of stuff I grew up with. Coming here took me back to my childhood. I loved it. Live music was great. I recommend going when the Dive Bombers are playing. Food and drinks are pretty good, but don't expect 4 or 5 star meals. It fits with the area. I'm definitely going back.
Excellent barbecue and a quiet peaceful place to dine and hang out on the banks of the Myakka River. Old Florida and we all liked it. You can eat inside or outside, and it’s casual. It’s worth the trip! Update: it is still a great place and I definitely think taking guests there was a fine experience. I took a group of 6 there again 5/3/22, and we all left happy. We even had a young alligator come across the porch, and a big raccoon made an appearance while we were there! But I must say I was disappointed with the serving size for my brisket. I paid $17 ($3 extra vs pulled pork etc) for 3 slices of “brisket bacon” It was good, but such a small amount. Not even very thick-cut bacon. The service and everything was great otherwise.
We just returned to Snook Haven with my parents. All had a delightful time. Food and service was great. Fun and airy atmosphere. Convenience of sitting outside near the music or inside where we could still enjoy it. A perfect day.
If you haven't been here yet GO!!! Right on the river plenty of outside seating and I love the lights they have on the trees makes it feel a bit magical. The BBQ is great here, my personal favorite is their collard greens.
