The Banyan House Brings a Taste of Something New to South Sarasota County (SarasotaMagazine.com)

The casual upscale establishment focuses on New American cuisine with occasional cultural flourishes that pull from Mexico, Korea and even Morocco.

Every time I turn around, I’m hearing something new about Wellen Park. The planned community near Venice and North Port is slated to have 22,500 homes and 50,000 residents once the full build-out is complete, and it is beefing up its dining scene with a new breakfast joint, an incoming coffee shop and permanent food trucks, plus The Banyan House, the newest addition to Wellen Park’s downtown.

The casual upscale establishment focuses on New American cuisine with occasional cultural flourishes that pull from Mexico, Korea and even Morocco. The restaurant’s sparkling new façade evokes Florida Keys-style architecture, which is carried indoors, where high-beamed white ceilings maximize the sunlit interior. Two artificial banyan trees punctuate each end of the main dining room, blurring the line between inside and out.
