Iconic Sarasota County waterfront restaurant reopens

For Mary and Charlie Morhardt, the recent reopening of an iconic Old Florida restaurant in south Sarasota County known for serving comfort food in a waterfront setting could not happen soon enough. The Michigan couple had been visiting Snook Haven , located “Smack Dab on the Myakka River” at 5000 E. Venice Ave., Venice, since the 1970s. “We ride a lot of motorcycles, back in the 70s,” Charlie Morhardt said. “It was more of a motorcycle hangout. It’s always nice to come here, they always have a band going,” he added. Sarasota County closed Snook Haven on April 30, 2025 to begin an $8.75 million makeover that included a new food service building and covered seating pavilion. Last year, while Sarasota County was in the midst of that project, the couple put their kayaks in the river and paddled over to see the new facility from that side. This year, they waited patiently for the reopening. “We stayed an extra day just to be here,” Mary Morhardt added. The Morhardts were the first customers served after the new food pavilion opened. They ordered the Florida Seafood Chowder and Myakka Nachos. What's on the menu at the reopened Snook Haven SSA
