Restaurant in Siesta Key, Sarasota, FL
A Great Place to Relax & to Enjoy Great Food.....
Since our opening in 2004, it has been a pleasure to serve all of you who support our vision for Siesta Key’s best eatery, Clayton’s Siesta Grille. We are committed to exceeding your expectations, by appealing to locals and visitors alike, with our beautiful location, remarkable atmosphere by artist Ron Genta, and of course, our great menu items by Chef Dmitri Xinidis.
Clayton’s Siesta Grille’s success has allowed us the privilege to indulge in some dreams which extend beyond our doors. We organize an annual golf tournament with the proceeds going to Greg
Truitt’s (NFL’s Man of the Year nominee) Mentor Program, a reading and mentor program. Part of our mission statement is to maintain a program for high school students, providing them with a friendly work environment to encourage growth. We have raised money for, and contributed to, worthy charities including many benefitting the victims of Hurricane Katrina. We are
concerned with helping the environment and reflect this through our oil, cardboard, glass and plastic recycling program. Other eco-friendly measures we have undertaken include converting vegetable oil to bio diesel fuel and installing high-efficiency equipment and lighting. Clayton’s Siesta Grille could not be successful without you and we hope that you can continue to enjoy your experience with us.
