About Taste of Europe

Taste of Europe is a specialty food store in Sarasota, Florida. It is listed at 2130 Gulf Gate Dr, Sarasota, FL 34231, which places it among the local businesses of Sarasota that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Google also lists it under grocery store, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.

Store size varies enormously, from a small corner grocery with a few aisles to a full supermarket chain location in Sarasota with a bakery, seafood counter and food court under one roof. Sales and promotions are often posted in-store or in a weekly flyer rather than online, so prices listed on a website may be out of date. Seafood markets sell live and on-ice product and can usually clean or prepare fish on request for a small fee. Specialty food stores in Florida may focus narrowly on one category, like a butcher, a rice and dry goods shop, or an import store, so calling ahead to confirm stock for a specific item saves a wasted trip.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 10 am–7 pm. Note that it does not open on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Taste of Europe at (941) 921-9084; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. Its website is tasteurope.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

With 4.0 out of 5 on Google from 87 reviews, it sits in the middle of the range for specialty food stores in Sarasota. Recent reviews are the best guide.

Sarasota is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Sarasota follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I always shop here for my caviar. Then browse the store for snacks and meats. Some of the best in town. Friendly and helpful staff (some products are not in english, so you have to ask what it is) I enjoy coming here to find things new to try.

I stopped by this European store recently and was really impressed. The selection here is huge and you can find things that are hard to find anywhere else. The freezer section with chocolate covered curd bars is amazing. There are so many different kinds that it’s hard to choose. If you grew up with these, you’ll know what I mean. Great variety and always well stocked. I was also surprised by the selection of Georgian wines. So many options and very reasonably priced. Definitely one of the best selections I’ve seen in this area. A young employee also offered to save my phone number for their discount program so I could earn points and get savings on future purchases. By my third visit I already received 10 percent off. That was a nice surprise and shows they really care about their customers. The store is clean, organized, and easy to shop in. Staff is friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely keep coming back and recommend this place to anyone looking for good European products.

I recently found this European store and I really like it. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Everyone is polite and welcoming and you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. The store is very clean and organized. It is honestly one of the cleanest European stores I have seen in a long time. Everything looks fresh and nicely displayed. They have a very big selection of products. I was especially impressed by the caviar selection. There is a great variety including black caviar. They also have many kinds of dumplings, cheeses, and fresh dairy products that are hard to find in other places. I will definitely come back again. I recommend this store to anyone who is looking for good European products and nice service.

I am very disappointed with this store. First of all, there were a lot of spoiled products. We bought pasta with flying fish roe and chocolate-covered curd snacks β€” both were spoiled. The pasta in the jar looked like pure fat, and the snacks were clearly bad. The cashier was extremely rude. She said she could not slice the packaged sausage, which was fine, so we chose another one that was already opened and asked for half a pound. She then raised her voice and said she would not cut it β€œjust for us,” showing that she had cut it for other customers and that nobody else buys it. She made it very clear that she respects some customers and treats them well, but not us. I came from another state, and in Colorado I have never experienced such rude service in European stores. If I could give -1 star, I would. I am giving 1 star only because I have to. I am very upset and I do not recommend this place to anyone. The product selection is also very poor.
