    We had a fantastic time 12-27-24. Dinner was outstanding I had the prime and my date had the sea bass. It was my birthday and everyone went out of their way to wish me a happy birthday. Our server Bryan was excellent quick with service and getting anything we needed. It is a little pricey so be sure to check out the menu to see if it fits your purse.

    The food was spectacular. The service was outstanding. The only issue was the restaurant had no hand wipes or finger bowls to clean your hands after eating a seafood tower appetizer. With small bathrooms, hand washing was not easy to gain access to. At this price point you don’t expect your hands to be sticky and engulfed in a seafood smell for the duration of your meal after ordering a $113 appetizer. They were out of handi-wipes according to the server. That should not happen at a restaurant charging this much. Will I return? Absolutely, I just won’t order raw seafood appetizers.

    Sat at the bar on Christmas Day and had a great experience! Melissa was our bartender and she was slammed! They were one of the few restaurants open on Christmas Day so it was packed AND during the chiefs game. She did an amazing job keeping our drinks full and was super friendly the entire time!

    This restaurant has been open 3 days but it runs smoothly. We sat outside on the upper deck and had a lovely view of a courtyard, surrounded by high rise condos, and a large canal that opened out onto the Sarasota Bay. I had the 8 oz filet mignon (extremely tender and flavorful). My husband had the blackened snapper and found it delicious as well. Everything we ordered was excellent (wedge salad, onion soup, whipped potatoes and chocolate peanut butter pie with Ethiopian French press coffee). My. Old Fashioned was very good as well. My husband ordered a non-alcoholic beer which they had run out of but someone ran to the store and got him one without delay. Brendan was our waiter and he couldn't have been more attentive. All the staff was top-notch. We will be back, especially when we have guests who are steak lovers!
