Overview

Swordfish Grill & Tiki Bar commands a prime waterfront position at 4628 119th Street West in the historic fishing village of Cortez, serving fresh Gulf seafood and steaks on a deck that overlooks Sarasota Bay. Crab cakes, calamari, grouper, and the full raw bar anchor the menu, while the Tiki Bar runs happy hour Monday through Saturday 4–6pm with local musicians setting the tone. The Cortez location puts Swordfish at the edge of one of Florida's last working fishing villages, adding a sense of place that beach-strip restaurants can't replicate.
