Meal was very delicious and honestly- well priced! A lot of times with vegan food you can be in for an overpriced meal, but not this place. Also very nice garden to eat in or inside is also very lovely. Good variety if you want something hardy or on the lighter side.

My new favorite vegan restaurant! I sat outside on their back patio so cute and peaceful. I had the lions mane sandwich and a cup of vegetable bean soup! It was terrific! The sandwich was outstanding! So juicy and flavorful. The red haired girl working was one of the sweetest people ever and the owner as well. Very attentive and kind. I will be back again. I also got the lions mane jerky for sale there that I can't wait to try.

Such a wonderfully owned vegan spot! The food is fresh fast tasty and the company is so lovely! The owners couldn’t have been lovelier! If you have time while in Sarasota be sure to stop by! Don’t miss out! ...

I LOVE this place and i’m so glad i discovered it!!! Working here temporarily & i’ve been trying all the vegan places around downtown sarasota, and Fam kitchen is such a gem!! The reuben was delish, savory and packed with flavor- you won’t miss the meat! (and coming from someone who didn’t like tempeh till this sandwich) and the walnut chocolate chip cookie was sooooooo tasty! I also got an iced brown sugar oat latte and let me tell you, just get it. It’s all so good.

Really cute place with a beachy vibe. I've only eaten here twice, but the food was fresh and delicious. I got Mediterranean Vacation during my first visit. It was really tasty and fresh. The portion sizes are not large. It is enough food, plus it's nourishing, but be prepared, you will not get huge hearty meals here. On my second visit, I got the Smashed Chickie sandwich and a side of potato salad. The potato salad was fantastic! The sandwich was also tasty, but it did not seem it was a very good value. I would not get it again for that reason. I can make something similar at home for a lot less . Parking is ample but competitive. It can be difficult to find the place the first time. Overall though, I give Fam Kitchen 5 stars for the freshness and quality of the food, the atmosphere, and cleanliness.

Enjoying a nice day with my favorite fella. Of course we had to try a spot we’ve been hearing about, and we weren’t disappointed. Chef Laetitia of FAM’S Kitchen served up some tasty sandwiches, and the chili was full of flavor. We enjoyed the overall experience, and the best thing is that the entire menu is 100% Animal-Loving Good. ...

Delicious food! Lots of options and specials. Clean, cozy, and cheerful restaurant. Fast service. Affordable prices and generous serving sizes. Polite and friendly service. The owner is the chef which makes the food quality consistently yummy. You don't need to be plant based to enjoy this food.

This place is a small little cottage that definitely blends in well but wow! Amazing menu, super friendly staff, and perfect ambiance! Vegan dishes up and down, you won’t leave hungry or dissatisfied! We tried the Bacon Egg Cheese Bagel and a delightful lions mane sandwich, as well as the banana chocolate chip muffin. So good!!
