The Lounge

Michael’s Lounge is one of Sarasota’s favorite gathering places. Exceptional Mixologists and a unique atmosphere coupled with an impressive Lounge menu are sure to please!

Guests are encouraged to enjoy a small plate or a multi-course dinner as they celebrate with friends and family in the Michael’s On East Lounge. The bar is open beginning at 4:30 p.m., Tuesday – Saturday with Happy Hour offered each day!

Give Back Tuesdays

Join us every Tuesday in the Lounge starting at 4:30pm for All-Night Happy Hour and Give Back Tuesdays. Each month features a different local nonprofit, with a portion of proceeds donated from the evening.

The Benjamin Gilkey Fund for Innovative Pediatric Cancer Research exists to fuel the passions of investigative physician researchers within the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Institute. It will make new options available in the face of unexpected obstacles and help to improve, prolong, and preserve the lives of children like Benjamin, who are unique, brave, and unbelievably strong.
