    After having to wait approximately 10 minutes or so for the waitress to come to our table(2nd visit and 2nd time this happened), we had a very good meal. The waitress was extremely friendly and helpful so we overlooked initially being ignored for the second time. Hopefully the third time will be the charm as we will give it another chance!

    It's a very charming space and our server Maya couldn't have been nicer. We ordered blackened Grouper and got what seemed like catfish 🙄 Also ordered Tenderloin Tips but got....not trying to be overly coy but it was overcooked and tough to cut. The green-beans and mac n cheese were soggy and seemed straight out of the box/can. Considering what we paid and our modest expectations, the one star review is charitable.

    Family of 4 brunch was $160. Willing to pay for great meal but this wasn’t a $160 meal or experience. Took forever to get seated in the empty restaurant while they looked for rag to wipe table. Then the omelet station wasn’t ready (we were 1st customers around 11:30 - they opened 11am). Food was very good. Just suggest they use labels for people with food allergies or preferences. We had to guess what each item was. Desert did not exist. They only had store bought cookies on a table. At the price point, there’s much better brunch options in the St Pete area.

    We were surprised how much we enjoyed our dinner. Portions were good size, very tasty, reasonably priced and great service. If you go ask for a booth. Their table chairs are awful. Great happy hour deals.
