Hidden in a charming section of downtown Sarasota, Owen’s Fish Camp is more than a restaurant. Every detail invites diners into a magical Old Florida setting

Although the restaurant is less than 10 years old, it is housed in an adorable 1920s bungalow that lends it a lot of character.

On most evenings, visitors can expect a wait, but due to the sprawling backyard, complete with twinkling lights and a tire swing, waiting for a table here is pretty painless.

If you're lucky, you can catch live music on the old porch out back while you wait.
