    We went there Christmas Eve. The people working there were very nice, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food came in large portions and was excellent. Overall we had a wonderful night and will go back whenever we are in Clearwater/Clearwater Beach.

    Waiter Andy was fun and extremely professional (waiting until the first wave of high-speed visiting was over before taking food orders). The food, as always, was totally outstanding, the menu quite varied, and everything was delicious. We make it a point to go there at least once on every holiday visit.

    Booked rez weeks in advance for 6:15 on Christmas Eve. We were 15 minutes early and got seated. Ordered our entire meal within 10 minutes of sitting down. Got our drinks, salad and bread pretty quick. The main entrees took more than an hour to arrive. We asked our waiter to speak to the manager. When manager got to our table he asked us what do you need I’m the manager. We were stunned at his response when we said we want our food. We said we ordered an hour ago, we have a kid with us who is so hungry, what is going on? He said he has young kids too and he usually orders them their food right away. What? First, we did, more than an hour ago, and second, this is our fault? There was no apology, no effort to provide assistance. He was actually annoyed that we dare tell him how to run a restaurant (by feeding his customers within an hour of ordering). He said they are running 50 minutes out because it’s a holiday. We said that makes no sense, but at least tell us that when we ordered - try managing expectations. He said how was he supposed to know they’d be that busy? Wait - we thought he was the master of running a restaurant! He was rude and condescending and never apologized. This is not the restaurant it used to be, sadly. The food when it came was tasty and hot but we will not be coming back.

    This restaurant is always so amazing! Service and food was fabulous along with such a cool vibe. The manager Ryan walks around to all the tables and asks how everything was and he is constantly helping clear tables and stays on top of all of it! Thanks for another great night!

    We had an excellent meal as usual. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. The only negative was when we added shrimp to the fettuccine Alfredo, we only got 3 medium sized shrimp. You would think for a $9 add on, you would get more! But it was still delicious nonetheless!
