"New location in Philadelphia airport. A great roaster and barista did an awesome job, they know coffee. Prices were average. Didn't try the baked goods but they looked good. Regular and caramel lattes were on point.",
"Um, am I in an airport??! Truly felt like I was pulled from reality for a second there. THANK YOU La Colombe! This is how it's supposed to be done!",
"Amazing service and these guys know their coffee, you will not be disappointed. Top quality coffee for the average price you can't beat it!",
"So happy the airport finally got a La Colombe! As a frequent traveler, coffee is key to seamless travel and la colombe is top notch. Clean space and friendly barista! Best cafe in the airport.",
"While this La Colombe was not great, it was pretty good for airport food. \n\nFirst, they have a wide variety of breakfast foods including bagels, muffins, pastries and breakfast sandwiches. They also have a variety of drinks including smoothies, juices and coffees. \n\nToday, I decided to order an everything bagel with cream cheese, a blueberry tart and a blueberry smoothie. \n\nAll of the food was above average, but nothing was amazing. The only thing I was truly disappointed with, was the smoothie. It was made fresh, but was just not good. \n\nThe staff was the best thing about this place. They were very kind and polite. They also kept the very long line moving fast. \n\nSince this restaurant is a La Colombe, you can expect it to be expensive. Just my breakfast cost $25. \n\nAltogether, this restaurant is nothing special, but pretty good for an airport.",
"I ordered the Almond Tea Matcha Latte and chocolate croissant. Because I am a big fan of matcha, matcha latte was little bit too light for me, but chocolate croissant was so good , taste better after warm it up",
"If you're rushing through the airport and need a break-fast.... La Colombe coffee got you covered!! Coffee, tea, water, breakfast sandwiches. Conveniently located & a friendly staff",
"Simply good coffee for a reasonable price!",
"Basically the only breakfast place open in the area in terminal A early in the morning. I had high expectations because of how nice the counter displays were. Pretty disappointed with my experience over all. I got a plain bagel with veggie cream cheese. The bagel was not fresh at all and barely toasted. My cappuccino was fine. Overall not worth the money.",
"The delicious smell of their toasted everything bagel lured me in even though I wasn't hungry at all. I was so excited by how delicious it smelled! When I got the bagel, had hardly any toppings and was dry and crumbly. So sad. What a let down. I know it's just an airport kiosk, but I can think of a lot of better options for $6x"

"The Poke Company Restaurant is located at the ground floor of Kennedy Grand Central Condominiums in the Channelside District of Downtown Tampa next to City Dog Cantina Mexican Restaurant, Gelato-Go Tampa, Massage Envy, Crunch Fitness Gym, Cena Italian Restaurant, Pour House Bar, Ginger Beard coffee, Late Start Brewing, Maloneys Irish Tavern, and the Hideaway Cafe Sushi Restaurant. \n\nPoke Company serves key lime pie ice cream, seaweed salad, krab salad, poke burritos and poke bowls with your choice of protein including ahi tuna, salmon, spicy tuna, steamed shrimp, chicken, and tofu. \n\nBase options include white rice, brown rice, mixed greens, and cauliflower rice. \n\nMix-Ins include cucumber, sweet onion, jalapeño, edamame, cilantro, & hijiki seaweed. \n\nToppings include scallion, sesame seeds, wasabi peas, crispy onions, pickled ginger, tempura flakes, pineapple, eel sauce, spicy mayo, Thai coconut cream, wasabi aioli, masago fish roe, seaweed salad, and avocado. \n\nSauces include Company sauce, citrus ponzu, sesame Shoyu, spicy mayo, spicy miso, avocado lime, and coconut aminos. \n\nI got the small ahi tuna bowl with a bunch of mix-Ins and toppings and it was pretty good although not my favorite. I was underwhelmed by the small number of mix-Ins and vegetable add-on options available which is much less than other poke restaurants like Poke Express and U Poke Spot by the USF area. If you're in the area definitely try their large bowl but I wouldn't go out of your way to visit if you're in the USF or North Tampa areas. However, for those that live in Downtown Tampa, I'm sure this will be a popular go to spot for a convenient healthy meal! \n\nThe Poke Company Restaurant features a very basic casual decor with 8 light bamboo wood tables, uncomfortable steel aqua colored chairs, concrete floors, white walls, industrial basic drop down lights that make the place bright as day at night, and no music. I'd encourage management to color the walls, add some cushions to their chairs to make the place more comfortable, add music, and dim the lights to make the place more festive. To drink, Poke Company does not offer any alcohol but does have iced tea with boba and natural fountain sodas. I look forward to trying more types of bowls soon!",
"Clean eating with excellent customer service. The workers were extremely welcoming and kind and the food was fresh and tasty. Highly recommend.",
"This was my first experience ever having a Poké bowl and boy was it delicious. I love sushi so I figured amI would enjoy and I did. It was opening day and the staff was very knowledgeable and quick. They made great recommendations based on the things I told them I liked. The seafood options were super fresh. I really liked that they let you try anything before putting it on your bowl which is awesome. They offer cauliflower rice which I thought was great because I am currently staying away from carbs at the moment. I will definitely be coming back here it was a great experience!",
"Ate lunch here on their grand opening ribbon cutting day and the poke bowls were fresh and super tasty! Service was fast and the atmosphere is modern. Yolanda is the owner and she is so friendly and excited to offer this new restaurant to the Channelside area. You can park in the building garage for free, just turn right (north) off of Kennedy between the two buildings where Crunch Fitness is located.",
"Friendly and quick service, but the lack of options (toppings) and freshness of fish compared to great Poke is disappointing. The sauces are really salty, but it's nice that they mix it all in before they put it in your bowl. When ordering a large poke bowl too it isn't very full and they don't give you much. I work near this place and was extremely excited for it to be open but it leaves me disappointed, but usually franchises are like this.",
"Its sushi... just in a bowl. Fresh Ingredients, reasonable prices, and the perfect location for a date night. Customer service is exceptional. If you're not sure what to get, get everything. Thank me later.",
"Poke bowls are everywhere in Tampa, and so far my favorite one is at the international mall. \n\nHowever, the prices here were competitive especially if you order chicken, there is an up charge for salmon or poke. They accept Apple Pay which adds a convince factor if you need a meal after working out at Crunch and left your wallet. \n\nOn my bowl I added the spicy miso sauce, it was too salty and not hot enough. The chicken was steamed possibly sous vide. I prefer grilled chicken. \n\nOverall this was 3.5 stars because they are the most reaonably priced option, and there is an added convenience bonus for a post workout meal, but they are not my first choice for a poke bowl.",
"My boyfriend and I have been here twice since it has opened and we love it! It's so much food for a great price, staff is very friendly, and the bowls are delicious. I enjoy the tofu or veggie bowl and their chili sauce is tasty. Great place for vegan/gluten free diets (like myself). The only thing my boyfriend wish they had is fried or tempura chicken as a protein option.",
"Everything was super fresh here and they priced everything well. You get a TON of food for your money which I appreciate. Other places sometimes have very small portions and luckily this place makes up for it.",
"Omg the best service ever!!!! First off I didn't know what to expect. I never had a Poke bowl before and normally I don't eat raw food. So, I decide to stop by the restaurant and see what it was all about. I was the only one in there and the worker took his time explaining everything to me, allowed me to try out some of the toppings, mix ins & sauces. I didn't get anything raw, however, I did get the Chicken Bowl which was amazing and so filling! I highly recommend this place if you want to try something new and want someone to take their time with your order. FYI: I went there on a Friday around 6:30, not sure if they are normally slow around that time. If you go in and they are busy just ask them to take their time, your new to this\n\nMy order: Chicken Bowl, Brown Rice, Cucumber, Edamame, Sweet Onion, Spicy Mayo, Avocado Lime, and a load of toppings"

"Awesome...not cheap and not even the best value but awesome sandwich...\n\nXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"Great, friendly service and delicious (if messy) sandwiches. Tried the Spicy Porker and the Philly.",
"Stopped in and picked up an OG And philly sandwich. Pork was so tender and flavorful!! We will definitely be back! Only draw back was not much seating.",
"Delicious delicious porky goodness. We had the first three sammies from the menu and we each thought our own was the best so that's a happy camp. I had the Philly which was carved to order pork, sharp provolone, and the broccolini pesto. The whole thing gets toasted and then dunked in jus. Pork is very well spiced and tender as can be. You order through a window on Washington and we waited at the pastry shop next door while our food was made. \n\nWill def be back!",
"We've been anxiously waiting for something to properly fill the space that was once Kermit's right on Washington Ave. This. Is. It. Yay! \n\nPorco's is so much more than a porchetterria, which honestly doesn't really appeal to me as a plant based gal, but fellow veg-heads or those who don't eat pork, have no fear, they have stellar vegan options AND are a killer bakery too!! \n\nI had the veghetta which is playful vegtastic alternative to their signature pork sammy. It's thinly sliced and marinated zucchini and eggplant with mushrooms, peppers and onions. The filling is given generously and smothered in vegan cheese. The sauce is amazing and overall it's a pretty hearty, messy, filling plate. I enjoyed their 'jingle juice', a house-made enhanced cranberry, as their seasonal draft. It was awesome! (They also had homemade eggnog too). I look forward to seeing how this rotates with the seasons! Oh, and they're BYO, so bring 'em! \n\nThe fam had the margherita buffalina and the spicy one with calabrese chili oil. They're made with their homemade ciabatta bread and served on weekends only. \nThey have fresh basil and onions and are pretty delicious. I may have had a bite or two. \n\nAlso only available on weekends are their Nutella type filled to order fresh donuts. Hot and outstanding. \n\nWe just HAD to try some more of their stunning pastries!! They are absolutely gorgeous and drool worthy. They sell them per piece or $36 for a bakers dozen. I'm definitely keeping these in mind for parties, perhaps even New Years! They're show-stoppers!! We sampled the apple tart with rosemary shortbread and the chocolate caramel eclair. Delish!! \n\nThey had nitro cold brew (yay!) and other higher end caffeinated drinks. \n\nService was friendly. Parking was easy. \n\nThe only negative would be the lack of seating. Literally only three seats at the big farmhouse table. It's more of a grab and go place but definitely worth grabbing....everything!!!",
"I came here on a Saturday afternoon and ordered a Philly pork sandwich with sharp provolone and pesto (as well as baked goods from the bakery part). There was about four customers in the place, and some were waiting for food. The place is small with one large high table with about 8 stools. This is mainly a takeout spot. I ordered the Philly sandwich from one of the staff. The sandwich took about 10 minutes to make, which isn't too bad. I took the sandwich to go. I live about a 5-minute walk away. When I got home, I ate the sandwich immediately. As expected with pork sandwiches, the bread was wet from the juice of the sandwich. The bread wasn't too soggy though. The ciabatta was soft with a good flavor. The pork was topnotch. It was thinly sliced and incredibly tasty. There was also likely a crunchy texture in the sandwich, that kind of tasted like fried pork skin, but could have been some burned provolone cheese. Either way, it was yummy. \n\nI enjoyed the sandwich, but I honestly prefer a traditional roll over the ciabatta bread for a pork sandwich. I am generally not a fan of ciabatta, and while I will say this ciabatta was a very good one, a traditional roll would have made this pork sandwich perfect. Also, at $13.00, the sandwich should be a bit bigger. But because the pork was so good, I will definitely order from here again.",
"Great sandwiches. Got the OG, Philly, meatball and gravy train for the game last night. Exceeded expectations. Thrilled to have these guys around the corner.",
"Hands down a great sandwich. OG pork with cracklings as good as it gets. Friend had the meatball with cheese. Huge and hot. Every ting on the expensive side. But no hesitation going back and soon. They have cold brew on draft. Their pastries are crazy great and as pretty as you can get in the city. One table and counter service. I hope they kill it. Street parking always available.",
"This place is awesome! Everything inside is super clean and the food is absolutely delicious. This is a GREAT place for a quick bite to eat and the dessert is a work of art & tastes just as good as it looks! I would definitely recommend stopping in here to check it out!",
"They share a space with Small Oven Pastry Shop and I believe you can order the sandwiches from the bakery as well. Got the OG. I like their take on a roast pork sandwich. The meat has a subtle meat flavor with an interesting texture from the pork skin. The sandwich is a bit pricey and their portions smaller than other places but I do feel that one should give this place a try."

"There is a tiny barbershop quartet on my tongue and it won't stop singing. This place is amazing. Everything we ate was delicious, there wasn't a dish I didn't like!",
"Hallelujah! Fine dining comes to Hendersonville, at long last. After traveling to Tuscany a couple months ago, I can attest that the food and wine here are LEGIT. My husband and I tried three glasses of wine; the Primitivo by Calx, the Super Tuscan by Ventisei, and the Pecorino by Simone Capecci. They were all outstanding. The Pecorino had an almost briny taste, it would have paired beautifully with raw oysters. I drank it with the linguini and clams, and it was perfect!\n\nWe shared a caesar salad to start. It had shaved parmesan atop fresh romaine, not the junky kind you would find in the grocery store. Fresh tomatoes and croutons. The dressing was incredible. \n\nThey graciously made spaghetti and meatballs for our toddler. I was a little offended by how intensely he ate it and exclaimed \"yummy in my tummy\" when he has NEVER done that for anything I've made him at home. Hmph. Seriously, I have never seen this kid eat anything so fast and furiously- he ferociously wiped his face between mouthfuls and sighed with joy. I tasted it, and I can affirm that it was delicious. \n\nI had the the linguini with clams, which was ever so fresh and delightful. The pasta was thin, it was different than the linguini I'm used to seeing. The herbs were on point and I ate every last bite. \n\nMy husband had the spaghetti bolognese. It came with a big scoop of fresh ricotta on top. He devoured it, but I managed to get a bite and I would definitely order it in the future. \n\nFinally, we ordered the chocolate pudding cake for our son. He didn't let me have any. Judging by how quiet he got while eating it, I would say it was delicious. \n\nThe interior is classy, clean, and modern. The service was absolutely impeccable. Our server, Seth, was super knowledgeable about the food and the wine and he was attentive and friendly. It was the level of service you would expect from a fine restaurant in a major city. The chef was the former chef at Moto in the Gulch. He is so gifted! \n\nI'm so pleasantly shocked to have this amazing restaurant in Hendersonville, I can't believe our luck. We will be regulars!",
"Fantastic food and wine selection. Upscale dining with knowledgeable staff. Seth was our waiter and he knew all about the food and how it was prepared- attentive and knowledgeable. Each entree had a uniqueness about it. The short rib and the rigatoni were 2 of our favorites.",
"First of all, I made a terrible decision to participate in a \"dry January\" and am still annoyed with myself. 17 more days to go. But I digress. I found Rosie Food & Wine on Yelp (of course) when looking at dinner restaurants to visit with my sister while in Hendersonville; an area that I'm not well acquainted with. Rosie is located in a strip mall, but once you are inside it does not feel like it at all! They have a large bar and a very clean, modern, romantic ambiance. When I walked in I knew I was in for a treat and my experience went up from there. Unfortunately I could not partake in their happy hour which looked fantastic and offered two of my favorite wines; a cabernet and sauvignon blanc for only $6 per glass. I smelled my sister's wine and kicked myself again for making such a poor decision during the longest month of the entire year. For appetizers we ordered the shrimp carpaccio and burrata. Both came with thick piece of crusty bread which was perfect to scoop the delicious shrimp and burrata onto. YUM. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and the burrata tasted like it had some balsamic vinegar on it and the shrimp was excellent and unlike anything I've had before. It was really difficult to decide on an entrée because everything looked fantastic PLUS they offered a duck confit pasta special that I was so very close to ordering, but decided on the black fettucine with lobster and chorizo. My sister had the clams and linguine. We ordered the half portions which were plenty of food and a ceasar salad to share. The pasta was filled with flavor without being too heavy which is definitely a testament to the kitchen; especially with chorizo. But this was not greasy or heavy, it was perfectly balanced and delicious. The clams in linguine was also delicious and not too heavy. We could have used a few more clams, but you can never have enough shellfish in my opinion. Our service was stellar and we were left raving about the restaurant; my sister has already decided that we are coming back for her birthday! I'm so glad I found Rosie's and only wish that it was located closer to me!",
"Hendersonville was in dire need of a place like this. I went with a large group so I was able sample quite a few different dishes. Everything I had was excellent. I will visit often!",
"Thank you, Dear Lord Jesus!\nI swear I'll change my ways... just let me eat here once a week so that my soul may be satisfied!",
"It lived up to the hype! Went for my birthday this week and, Hendersonville, we FINALLY have a winner. They didn't have a Prosecco but Taylor, our on-the-spot server, recommended a Blanc de Blanc that we loved. Had multiple items from various sections of the menu and there was not a single one that we regretted. LOVE the tapas style apps and market I items that made sharing easy peasy. I cannot even recommend one item as a hat try...they were all equally fresh and creative. Can't wait to go back this week with my girlfriends and try more!",
"We came for the first time last night and we're thoroughly impressed! We took Seth's advice and ordered the Blueberry Lasagna to share at the table. Everything was delicious! We wiLl definitely be back! Hendersonville is fortunate to to have this restaurant!",
"Dinner was fantastic! The scallops and short rib were divine! The white wines that I drank were top notch. We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The interior and ambiance were exactly what Hendersonville needed. I cannot wait to return.",
"Wonderful to have fine dining in Hendersonville. Everything was delicious and the staff was wonderful and attentive."

"The food is fabulous. We had the drunken eggs for an appetizer. It was delicious. Rack of ribs were fall of the bone good. Side of Mac and cheese and collard greens just like mama made. Great experience the service was excellent. Our bartender \"Woods\" was so much fun. This is my new favorite place.",
"I. Am. So. Excited. For months (a year?) I've stalked the internet and passed by on my way to work... Excited for what was to come. It isn't often that a restaurant's locations are NYC, Miami, Puerto Rico, and Indy! It's here! Tonight I had one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant in ages. First, the actual space is beautiful. It was well worth the wait and is a great blend of modern with some touches of a southern kitchen. Now let's get to the important stuff! The food was amazing. Our table had a slew of things and the highlights were the Pumpkin and Mushroom Potpie and the burger. Related... the fries come with this sauce that might just change your life. The cocktails are really good but a tad small. However, the beer selection is very strong. We capped dinner with a piece of pie which was epic. Finally, I want to leave you with the most important part... the team running it. Our service was amazing. It's not often you to a place and every human is a delight. A very special shoutout to Ariana. She was our server and was so much fun! I cannot wait to come back because their chicken has my name on it.",
"The service was terrific and the decour was great. The waitress gave us unique and tasty drink recommendations. The sides stole the show, I recommend the cheesy corn bread which was the highlight of the evening. The Mac and cheese was done in typical southern style, meaning they were heart-killing and fantastic. We ordered the fried chicken and it was good, not great. It comes with a hot sauce that I recommend, normally I prefer fried chicken without sauce but this one needs it and the sauce is uniquely sweet and savory. We finished the evening with a blueberry crumble that was extremely satisfying. All in all an evening well spent. Prices are typical for upscale north Indy. I recommend, especially for those who enjoy southern food. I was very disappointed when Crispy Bird left the neighborhood but Root and Bone fills in this need nicely.",
"Wow, this place was amazing. We attended their soft opening...by accident. They were very gracious and let us crash their opening. The official start date is Tues, Jan 21,2020. \n\nThe decor was trendy and fun. The music was upbeat, and the staff was well versed on the menu and friendly. We had Tammy, who was amazing. The place was packed, yet we never were left waiting for anything. \n\nThe food....wow! We started with the fried green tomatoes \"BLT\" with pimento cheese and pork belly on top. Light crust on the tomatoes was delicious and came together well with the other ingredients. My husband had the 14oz NY Strip which was served with broccolini and fingerling potatoes. Whatever the light sauce was on the potatoes was simply addicting. I had the \"meatloaf\" which was really not meatloaf at all, rather short rib meat pressed down with a delicious heirloom tomato reduction on top. Served with broccolini and creamy mashed potatoes and gravy. Comfort food taken up to another level. I can't wait to try their sweet tea brined fried chicken the next time. We topped all of this off with some housemade key lime pie with whipped cream. A truly Outstanding culinary experience with nice size portions and fair prices.\n\nI would be remiss if I didn't share about the drinks. They have some very creative drinks that you won't find anywhere else. Their bourbon mule and tequila tractor drink were like a party in my mouth. This place is a MUST TRY!",
"Excellent food and service! We recommend the fried chicken, grits and heavenly biscuits and the deviled eggs. Beautiful historic building.",
"I have been waiting for this place to open. My patience was finally rewarded. The food was amazing. The chicken biscuit was delicious & the grits....just perfect. My kids loved the Mac & cheese & the buckwheat waffles. Can't wait to go back & try more items.",
"Great atmosphere, incredible food and excellent service. For a place that just opened I was beyond impressed. You usually expect a few teething problems with a new spot, but there were none. Our server Josh took great care of us and we definitely didn't leave hungry! The buscuits were out of this world, the ribs, friend chicken, meat loaf...all of it! We will be back soon.",
"Food and ambiance are awesome! Great addition to the neighborhood. Will definitely be coming back!",
"Sat at the bar and the staff is awesome! The vibe and decor is on point! Highly recommend and will be back often.",
"Have been watching renovations on this corner and they nailed it. A lively vibe and chic decor with great service but we came for the food and it did not disappoint! Modern southern cuisine is how it was described by our server. Hubs chose the pork belly bacon to start and it was delish. He picked the sweet tea brined chicken and loved it. Moist and the hot sauce was right up his alley. Our server recommended the \"meatloaf \" and it was yummy with brisket meat and a tomato jam! A good deal because it came with sides of broccolini and mashed potatoes. So many more choices to select next time! Love my old 'hood being so hip!"

"We were greeted right away. The customer service is ON POINT. The burgers are priced perfectly! Also.... hands down one of the best burgers we've had in a while. We will be back in the future for some more. Get ready to get your hands dirty haha.\nThe beers seem to be a little overpriced for the size of them but that's just our opinion. \nLoved every minute though. Thanks a bunch!",
"This place was amazing! We came Sunday and were prepared to wait because they had just opened, but there was no wait at the time we came! You grab a menu, order, then seat yourself! Super cute set up and everyone was so friendly. We got the tots without the cheese and the boss hog burger! the bang sauce on the tots was delicious i wish i had more! they were all out of the loco fries but we will defiantly be back because there is so much more i want to try!",
"So good, I tried the Boss Hog, the pork belly was perfect. I'll be going back many many times!",
"This place was great! We were super excited to eat at a local restaurant in the village, instead of a chain restaurant. We had the wings and a couple burgers, all of which was awesome. Our only complaints were likely due to the fact that this is a brand new restaurant. The burgers didn't come with fries, which we found surprising. I think most people expect their burgers to come with fries and wouldn't mind paying an extra dollar or so to have them. Like some other reviewers, the beer didn't seem like it was a full pint, although it was priced like it was. They have a great beer list though. I think these guys are still trying to figure out some kinks, which I'm sure will be figured out in no time. Overall, the ambiance was comfortable and relaxed and the staff was super nice. We'll be back soon!",
"Pretty da*n good! We finally made it in for an early lunch (11:20) and the place was empty but by the time we left 12 it was filling up quickly! Yes, it's a little spendy but you get quality food and great portions which make it worth it. \n\nWe got the fried eggs and OMG they were amazing!!! The jalapeño mustard sauce that comes on the side is to die for and I even added it onto my burger. The truffle fries came as a huge portion (enough for 2-3 adults) and they were so good. I ate so many of them, I just couldn't stop lol. They were nice as crispy too. \n\nWe had them surprise us with the burger and so we got the Maui burger. It was really good. The one thing I would say is I think the flavors of the Maui portion kind of conflicted with the burger meat itself. It was kind of 2 different flavors in a burger. Still really yummy though. And as I said above, I added the jalapeño mustard sauce to the burger as well lol. \n\nWe met the owner and he was so kind and easy to talk to and seemed to truly care about how we felt. \n\nHubby and I shared the eggs, fries and burger and we are stuffed! Can't wait to go back and try more.",
"Delicious burgers! We will be back! And the shakes! We did not get one but they looked amazing.",
"Merp! Was excited to try this place out but was sorely disappointed. We left hungry our W done burgers were Med/rare and super greasy. The \"candied jalapeño bacon\" they offer on the burger which is why i ordered it was literally just a slice of reg. Bacon and pickled jalapeños on top. The ice machine was out the entire time we were there. Really just not worth the hype and a waste of 47$ for 2 burgers, 1 fry and soft drinks. Also if your a covid conscious person don't go here!",
"Great food. Even better customer service. The burger was cooked perfectly and so juicy. Candied bacon was a great touch.",
"Omg this burger was sooo good! My husband and I split the Boss Hog burger because they are half pound burgers but I think with the toppings they probably weigh a pound! The patties are top grade local meat and very flavorful! If you like a high quality burger then this is where you will find the best tasting flavor filled burgers. The fries are really good too even though Shoestring fries are not my favorite! Overall excellent",
"Shut your mouth and the garage door! Absolutely delicious good, great beers and cider with any game you want to watch on the TVs. Attentive and friendly service to top it all off. We had the tempura green beans ( BETTER than PF CHANGS BY A MILE), truffle fires (delicious huge portion), deviled eggs (you've never had any this delicious), Kielbasa and Hot Chicken. People, get your butt to this casual restaurant with high class food. Family friendly and don't forget the shakes that will blow your mind and macros. Top Notch."

"came here for lunch on their grand opening day and had such a good meal! i heard it's the same owners as Nam Son Bakery so i had high expectations.\n\ni got summer rolls, beef pho and chinese pork banh mi.\n\nthe summer rolls were delicious. the beef pho broth had SUCh good flavor. my only critique would be that the banh mi needed more meat. \n\nbut other than that, service was great and i'll be back every hungover sunday",
"I was so excited when I saw NLBID's blurb of Nam Son Bakery's former chef was opening a Vietnamese bistro, that my S.O and I ended up being the first 2 customers in the restaurant.\n\nWe ordered the blue chip standards. The pho, the vermicelli with grilled pork and Viet iced coffee were flavorful and great. The spring rolls, while fresh and super crispy, was a bit dry and had too much taro in the filling. The pork belly banh mi we go took to go toasted up VERY well. The bread was insanely light and crispy. My only criticism is the filling was a bit light.\n\nService was earnest and very friendly, but be patient as they're still ironing out the kinks. Prices are fair for the portions, much better than the last Viet place that opened in Northern Liberties.\n\nA welcome addition to the neighborhood! 3.5 stars for now: we'll be back to try the rest of the menu.",
"This place had me at real wooden chopsticks. Wish I could have talked to the owners more but def looked like a family run restaurant. The son sat us down, the dad took our order and I'm guessing the mom gave us the bill. We got there early but it def filled up quite quickly for a Wednesday night. Be careful on the portions. We got the small pho bowl between the two of us and it was hugeeee and we couldn't finish it. Also got the tofu bah me (spelling?) and the avacado rolls. Will def be back.",
"Amazing spot. Losing Same Same a few years back was a shame. Hello Vietnam is dynamite and I hope it becomes a permanent fixture in the neighborhood. Grilled pork bahn mi and avocado summer rolls were outstanding. Super nice staff. Can't wait to go back.",
"I was super looking forward to this place especially considering I used to go to Nam Son for their banh mi, which was great. We did end getting a tofu banh mi to go though. We can during grand opening so we expected some issues but wow it was super disorganized for a restaurant. We didn't get anyone to attend to us half the time, misplaced orders, folks running around and sitting around. Minus 1/2 star for terrible service. I'm hoping it's gotten 100% better because the food was actually pretty good. We got a small pho but it really was big, I'm not sure how large is large I think they should drop the price and make smaller bowls. We were stuffed. The pho had ox tail, that's a big plus. The pho was good, not the best I've had(Vietnam and so Cal) but I think it was traditional southern style. Their Obama bun cha I enjoyed the dish actually I think the meat was done fantastically. Wish there was a better noodle to meat ratio it was too much meat for the small amount of noodles. My main issue was that they delivered us a bowl of pho that we had to share and then 15 minutes later I got my Obama bun cha so I was already full waiting so long. Minus another 1/2 for service. My favorite part actually was the Banh Mi, we had a tofu banh mi it was huge cheap like the old nam son fantastic. I honestly would just prefer to order take out. Overall review, banh Mi is legit, speciality dishes are done well, pho is good, service needs work.",
"Wow! This place is a gem! My husband and I went for dinner and it was fantastic. We both got the large Pho- he got beef and I got veggies. His was perfectly balanced and packed with meat. The broth was flavorful and hot. Mine had beautiful crisp fresh veggies, tofu, and faux chicken. The service was outstanding and friendly. We can't wait to go back! So happy to have them in the neighborhood!",
"So excited to have this place in the neighborhood! Service was excellent, and the food quality fantastic. We ordered the tofu rolls which were so fresh with a delicious sauce, the tofu banh mi which was absolutely perfect and a veggie pho with veggie broth that was flavorful, fresh, and quite a large portion for the small. Delicious vietnamese coffee as well. Will definitely be back soon to try more things!",
"What a wonderful surprise is this restaurant! Clean, healthy and yummy food. Really enjoyed their vegetable pho and the tofu-veggies rolls. One of the owners came in while we sat there and made sure to check on us and see that everything was well. Already visited again, and will come again and again!",
"The BBQ chicken Bahn Mi was the winner for both my husband and I. We love having pho so close by and it was really crowded when I went to pick it up on a Friday night, so it seems others are very happy with it as well. The only complaint I have is that our place smelled really bad afterwards. Like onion-central. Maybe next time we'll ask for no onions? But then there's the scallions. Once we figure out what stunk up the place, we'll ask to omit that! Otherwise, it was delicious and very filled. One small pho is enough for 2, although we were happy to each have our own. The Bahn Mi is a good size but next time I'm getting a whole one for myself because it was that good. Crispy baguette and and a little kick with the jalapeño peppers; it was perfection . Side note: the employees kept referring to it as a hoagie, which is sort of is! But WAY better.",
"Visited this place with my family the other day for breakfast and I have to say: this place was absolutely incredible! The food was amazing, the servers were very friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. My wife and I ordeded Banh Mi Opla and the Beef Stew Noodle Soup, respectively, which were recommended to us by our server. While we were unsure at first, as we had never tried these dishes before, we were completely blown away by the sheer deliciousness. While the food looked relatively simple, the flavor combinations were simply out of this world. Would definitely come again!!"

"We went there while still in \"yellow phase.\" We made our reservations online and sat on the patio. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. They were apologetic over the conditions (Covid) and the spotty rain. Obviously nothing they could control, but the experience was still amazing. Great food and beer. We will definitely be going back!",
"I was denied service because I didn't have a reservation despite them have 11 open tables. I came upon the brewery around 12:21pm and decided that I would just go get a flight and a flatbread and would of been there 45 minutes tops for a party of 1. \n\nWhen I came up to the hostess, and ask if I could grab a table, i was told that they were fully booked today and to make a reservation tomorrow, despite them have 11 table free at the time I arrived. \n\nI'm honestly very confused as to why I couldnt just grab 1 table for a flight and food. I understand you need a reservation but are you just going to turn walk ups away as soon as you open, even if you have tables available?",
"Went for lunch. Awesome space. Great outdoor area w a large bar and plenty of tv's. The food was great. Service was great. Looking forward to spending a lot of time there!",
"Went there two nights in a row. Great service and yummy food. Can't wait to dine in. We ordered take out but the service was quick and accurate. Highly recommend",
"Excellent atmosphere with quality food and drink. The cheesesteak egg roll appetizer was excellent.",
"Great addition to the area. Cold beer, yummy food. The service was fabulous, staff was friendly and everything was clean and sanitized. Love the outdoor dining space and large, open bar area. Will be returning often!",
"I have never written a review before but we came for the first time in Newtown and It was good",
"Always a great time. Incredibly nice staff. Good food and drinks. Totally worth joining the membership",
"Was there week 1 when they opened. Same experience as review below. Hostess stated that we needed a reservation. When I questioned all of the open tables a host stepped in and stated that he could seat us in a few minutes. Food was fresh and excellent. Beer was great also. Servers were friendly and attentive so as a result service was great. Went back 2 days later. Same story, no reservation, \"come back tomorrow with a reservation.\" Several open tables so I again politely questioned the staff. I was then seated in a few minutes. Management needs to train the host staff a little better on how to handle customers and seating's. Otherwise, be your own advocate and enjoy because the place is great. Going back tonight. With a reservation just to be safe.",
"First time here - dinner and drinks with friends - the wait staff was very friendly and professional - the tables were safely distanced for outdoor dining - and our meal was delicious! Several had the pasta primavera with chicken or salmon that was excellent . And if you're not a beer drinker they do offer a drink menu with summer refreshing spirits- kudos to the bartender :)."

"Newest restaurant in Carmel! When you walk in, you are greeted by the smell of the amazing wood fired grill. Service was great including a nice chat with the owner, who even offered a tour of the kitchen. I opted for the flame burger and it was perfection. Hubs wanted to try the pizza because -the wood fire- he had to- and thought the crust was great as well as the Mediterranean toppings. We each ordered a reasonably priced craft cocktail, him the Manhattan, me a gin cocktail. Both were very good. The truffle fries were outstanding. The menu has many varied dishes to try from seafood to steak. Can't wait to go back to try more. A variety of seating options- we had a nice view of the kitchen and enjoyed seeing the gRilling! Will be back soon!",
"Hosted a business dinner during this restaurant's second week of opening. Overall a very good experience but a few avoidable glitches did occur. \n\nRight out of the gate after ordering our wine, the server returned to report they were out of that wine. Two guests ordered cocktails which arrived in small glasses filled 3/4 full, not great value for the cost. \n\nNext, again after ordering entrees, one of my guests was advised the kitchen was out of New York Strip. Think they need to adjust their ordering. I could have rolled with this if the server had let us know prior to ordering what the kitchen did not have available that evening. Co-Owner/Chef Henri did visit our table after dinner and apologized, offered complimentary dessert. We also received a few visits from Co-Owner/Chef's wife.\n\nOn to the food. We started with the crab baguette appetizer which was excellent. Plenty of lump crab, cheese and bread was toasty yet soft. Entrees ordered were Cioppino, Filets and Pasta Italiano. The Cioppino, $32, was excellent. A brothy fisherman's stew including an in-shell small lobster tail, several scallops, shrimp, mussels and red snapper. My guests reported that the filets, $33, were cooked as ordered and very good. The Pasta Italiano $25 included seafood, penne pasta in a cream tomato sauce.\n\nWe did take Chef up on his dessert offer ordering the butter cake, bread pudding, creme brulee and cheesecake. The butter cake was just that, very heavy on butter with actual chunks in the cake topped with ice cream. Others reported their desserts, especially the bread pudding which features chocolate, were very good.\n\nThe dining room has a nice vibe. Tall windows look out on Main Street Carmel. Well spaced tables. There is a bar area separate from the main dining room. Kitchen is open concept and the aroma of the wood grill wafts throughout.\n\nOverall a fine experience. Just need to work out some of those opening week kinks.",
"Went for opening week. The atmosphere is really cool. It's a setup where you can see inside the kitchen which I thought was fun. Ordered the scallops, which may have been the best scallops I've ever had in Indiana. They fly them in fresh and you can taste it. Strongly recommend. The risotto was good, but nothing special. Girlfriend had spinach ravioli, which she enjoyed. Only complaint about the place is that since they cook everything on an open, wood fire grill you leave the restaurant smelling like smoke",
"Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Reasonably priced. Finally a restaurant in Carmel that has the lighting figured out. We will definitely be back!",
"I had had a craving for a cheeseburger for over 2 weeks. Well if am going to splurge it is going to have to be worth it. I was looKing on Yelp and nothing really interested me until I read about \"Hot & New\" Savor right by my house. Wood-fired fresh dishes, upscale casual with an award winning cheeseburger on the menu. That was it!\n\nWalking in - the restaurant is very \"cool\" but what impressed me most was it was Warm!! The restaurant's outer walls are floor to ceiling windows but it was nice and toasty. \n\nWe started out with a glass of Merlot while looking at the menu. It is a versatile menu from steaks, chops an and seafood to wood-fired pizzas and sandwiches.\n\nWe started out with the Lemon- Oregano wings. They were fresh, hot and meaty with a distinct lemon-oregano flavor. What I loved about them was you got the flavor without a messy sauce. \n\nOn to the main course. Yes, i did get the cheeseburger and it was everything I hoped for - juicy, flavorful with just the right toppings. It was definitely worth the splurge!!!! I got the Parmesan truffle fries to go with it. The flavor was there but they were a bit soggy. I like them crispy. Next time I will tell them to make sure my fries are crispy. \n\nMy companion got one of the wood-fired pizzas. The toppings - sausage, pepperoni, red peppers, red onions were fresh, plentiful and full of flavor the only downfall was the crust was a little soggy. A crisp, crusty crust is my preference.\n\nWe ended the meal with the gooey butter cake topped with vanilla ice cream. Mmmm good!!!! \n\nDefinitely on my list of restaurants to frequent.",
"Finally a restaurant that does not feel like you are in the Midwest! We started with the calamari and it was light and crispy and for dinner we had chicken Marsala and the seared scallops with risotto- both were well prepared! We did not have room for dessert but the creme brûlée and bread pudding looked awesome! Definitely will be back!",
"The cobb salad was dressed with very little ranch. The fries were soft with no condiments. The risotto was completely underdone and crunchy. The lobster was very salty. The kids liked the pepperoni pizza though. They have three microbrews: bells, liftoff, and knuckle buster. Your opinion may differ but this was my experience.",
"I got a pick up order. Seafood pasta with red cream sauce plus a side salad. It was great. Big portion. Bread was good. I didn't eat inside but it looked very comfortable and inviting. You can definitely see and smell the real wood fire. They also have a private room that can hold up to 30-35.",
"Great experience at Savor. My friend has been here before and highly recommended it for a friends birthday dinner. We had drinks at the bar before our table was ready. They take call aheads here but no reservations. The ahi tuna and spinach bruschetta were great. Three of us had risotto and the other had Pasta Italiano. All were delicious and very filling. No extreme portions like other pasta places. They were so busy and out of the dessert we wanted by the time we ordered. They made it right by comping us on a dessert available. Creme brûlée's is the best! Very excited for a place like this in Carmel.",
"Started with gold rush cocktails (bourbon, lemon, honey) and crab bruschetta. Shared the bruschetta with 2 people, but it could have easily been shared with 4. The french bread was perfectly cooked so it had a crust but wasn't hard to eat. It came with a garlic tomato sauce that paired really well with the cheesy crab topping. I would definitely order it again. \nFor dinner we shared an order of the tortellini and NY strip. The steak was cooked truly medium rare- slight salty char crust and tender juicy inside. \nThe staff were friendly and prompt. The manager or owner also checked in on tables and was assisting her service staff.\nWe came in for an early Valentine's Day and it was the perfect date night."

"First one to review! Wohoo! Day 3 since opening, we were ecstatic to try out this brand new Italian place. When we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised to see all the brick work on the walls. \n\nHere are my ratings based on different criteria:\n\nQuality of food: Good. For food we had the bruschetta and the Linguine Alla Carbonara. The bruschetta tasted fresh with ripened tomatoes, onions, and basil. The bread had a nice toasty crunch to it which is a must. The Carbonara had pancetta in an Parmigiano-Reggiano (type of thick granular Italian cheese) sauce. It was good but a bit on the dry side and really could have used a little bit of olive oil. \n\nDecor: modern Italian. I appreciated the lack of tacky checkered cloth on the tables or scenes of Italian villa on the walls. Really loved the brick walls, the use of modernistic lightbulbs, and the antique looking tiles. The bar area looked very slick, modern, and welcoming. \n\nCleanliness: good. The bathroom and the tables were kept clean. \n\nService: meh. Our server Max wasn't the most happiest looking waiter and kept missing the mark on service. He did the Italian part well with randomly singing in Italian under his breath but he never smiled while taking or delivering our food. He just looked at times a bit too strict, abrupt, and on the edge. He didn't confirm the order we placed nor did he say any pleasantries like \"you're welcome\" or \"thank you.\" With just 3 days of being open, I would expect all the waiters to be on top of the game and be extra courteous to early guests. There was a hostess girl though who did a marvelous job filling in for things that our waiter kept missing on. No bread was delivered to our table but after asking the hostess, she got the bread and olive oil to us right away.\n\nPrice: typical for a beach restaurant. Our bruschetta was $7 and the Carbonara was $16. The beer prices were very affordable though. \n\nLike all new restaurants, Casa Italia needs to work out the kinks and I'm sure they'll get past them eventually. First being the air conditioning situation where almost every guest complained about it being too hot inside. We can't wait to come back in a few months and see how this restaurant changes.",
"I don't like when people review a restaurant before trying but I've eaten at Tony's in downtown Clearwater for nine years. It was owned and operated by Tony and Claudia who now own Casa Italia. \n\nCan't wait to try the new place. I know it will be terrific! Maybe tonight.",
"Uncle Rico , Padro and I love the location, food and the Owner Tony. We enjoy the authentic Italian cuisine, beach access, we will highly reccommend to all my friends.",
"AMAZING FOOD! The bread was straight out of the oven. The service was timely and the staff was very polite. They had an ipad that had the menu with pictures of all of the food and sides! It was easy to navigate, and you knew exactly what you were getting. I got the Chicken with sausage and veggies (I forget the name) it was perfect! We had a party of 10 and everyone finished their food. Highly recommend",
"Really great!!! So happy to have them in the neighborhood. Food and service were terrific!",
"Food was fantastic BUT it took over an hour to get our entrees waiter seemed to be elsewhere!!\nNext time I will sit in the bar awesome bartender",
"Delicious! The gnocchi was perfect! Like little puffy clouds of perfection! And we got a margarita pizza that was on point, too. We only had takeout so far, and can't wait to go and actually be served. Ambiance looks great!",
"From the second I walked in, I felt welcomed! My bartender was MONEY! My food was truly mediocre. Nothing she could do about it. Total FAIL from beginning to end...great service though :)",
"This place might taste good - our appetizer of prosciutto and burrata was great. Unfortunately we ordered our dinner (spaghetti and chicken fettuccine alfredo) 50 minutes ago and it has yet to appear....\n\nNO ONE came out to check on us or manage expectations on when food would arrive. The party beside us got up several times to check on their food, and kept getting told 'soon'.\n\nAlright, so our pasta came about 10 minutes after I typed the above. My husband's spaghetti sauce had no taste and he didn't want to eat much. The pasta itself tasted good. He said he wished they had put Ragu on it instead, which is dreadful. My alfredo was near flavorless. I asked for black pepper and cheese and that made it at least edible.\n\nCheck came to $54 for the two dishes, appetizer, and a small bottle of sparkling water. The worst way to spend $50+ on the beach for pasta and cheese. Not impressed. Will not return. Will recommend others stay away.",
"Excellent Italian cuisine! Great atmosphere and superb wait staff. Wines were great new choices to discover and like."

"Top to bottom it was amazing, this is much needed here in Tampa, can't wait to work my way thru the menu! Mangia!",
"If you want a truly excellent dining experience, then Rocca is your next stop. From the time we sat down to when we left, the pace of our night out was perfect. Rocca's staff was always near by and seemed to appear out of nowhere to deliver our food or to clear away our empty plates. \n\nOur waiter treated explained the menu so well, I thought I was back in the kitchen watching the food being prepared. Other fine-dining restaurants train their staff to repeat a memorized script of specials or popular dishes, Rocca's staff explained flavors and textures. By the way, none of our experience was pretentious or highbrow. It was simply well done.\n\nThe food exceeded my expectations. The pasta was freshly made and tasted like it had been flown in from Italy. It is hard to describe with words how good the food tasted, but simply put, it was outrageous. Once the main course was delivered none of us were talking except to try to describe how much we liked our food. \n\nI can't wait to go back.",
"Great new Italian restaurant. Food was amazing! Great silver service. You can also request a sommelier to help with the wine list!",
"Food and service was awesome. First place I've been in Tampa where they make the pasta and bread from scratch each day. Definitely try the pork entree it's incredible.",
"I knew of Rocca's opening through a few friends in the hospitality industry. My first time there was this past Wednesday and the experience was awesome. I sat at the bar since I was by myself. I forget what the dish is called, but the large spinach ravioli with the egg in the center was amazing. Cocktails and wine were excellent as well. I am really excited for what they are doing here with such attention to detail from flavor to texture. This is the best Italian cuisine in Tampa.",
"We had a wonderful dinner tonight at Rocca. At the beginning of the meal we were pleasantly surprised by two pieces a complimentary Parmesan cheese to excite out taste buds. When eating the Fusilli pasta, we requested and received grated Parmesan cheese. On the bill, which was north of $100 for two, was a $1.50 for the grated Parmesan cheese! I don't mind paying for a good meal but small penny pinching charges leave me with a less than great opinion of new Italian restaurant. Therefore I lowered my rating to 4 stars from 5.",
"My wife and I went to Rocca on a Friday night around 6pm. We didn't have a problem finding a seat, but maybe that was due to the rain so ymmv. \n\nThe inside is modern, brightly lit, and nicely decorated- a nice change from many of the other Italian restaurants in Tampa which can feel somewhat stuffy. \n\nThe service was excellent. The staff was helpful and nice to converse with and seemed experienced. Thank you. \n\nAnd onto the food. We started with the mozzarella cart which is comprised of a single heirloom tomato and mozzarella which is transformed from curds to cheese before your very eyes. It is finished off with salt, pepper, olive oil (extra virgin), and a balsamic sauce. It was delicious. \n\nFor our entrees I ordered the spaghetti al limone and my wife had the lamb shank. \n\nThe spaghetti al limone was just okay. I couldn't really taste the crab through, or in, the sauce. The spaghetti itself was cooked perfectly al dente and I imagine it would be great in another one of their dishes (which I intend to try). I wasn't expecting an entire crab leg but I wanted more than just a hint of crab which is obviously the star ingredient and perhaps a little more pasta. Overall, I did not feel this dish was worth the money. The lamb shank was well done. First off, it looked amazing and was generously portioned. It was tender and cooked perfectly. The vegetables that accompanied it were also good. The desserts we had were tasty and a good way to end our experience.",
"I was finally able to check out the newly opened Rocca on Saturday night! It's conveniently located right near Armature works. If you are planning to go on the weekend, I would definitely recommend calling ahead or making a reservation on Resy. Bar seating is also available on a first come first basis (but it seemed pretty full when I came in around at 6:30). Even if there is a wait, I would suggest waiting since the space is large, seats are likely to open up fairly quickly and the wait won't be long. The food and experience is also definitely worth it. \n\nRocca is definitely the beginning of something new in Tampa and the first restaurant I've eaten at in Tampa that is doing something innovative and ingredient driven (I would say it's very on par with the restaurants in NYC). \n\nI especially appreciated the personal touches that the Rocca team has applied to the restaurant. The restaurant really speaks to Chef's passion for Italian food and cooking. All the pasta and bread is made in-house, which makes them an immediate standout and no other restaurant in a Tampa goes above and beyond to deliver quality for their diners. \n\nFor a table of two, we ordered the following: \n1) Bread & Butter - the bread (focaccia and sour dough) are both made in house and the lemon butter is to die for. Yes, you need to pay for the bread but you also need to realize that this bread is made in house and worth every penny. You also pay for bread at a bakery... \n\n2) Eggplant + Peppers: I normally don't like most eggplant dishes but I really really like this one. The flavors and textures were all done right. It also pairs excellently with the bread! \n\n3) Yellow Tail Crudo: Definitely one of the best crudos I ever had, and I've eaten a lot of crudos. This is a must order. \n\n4) Mozzarella Cart: This is prepared table side and a great experience! The basil is also grown from the Chefs garden (really impressive). It was definitely a large portion for two but it's an easy take home if you don't finish it. \n\n5) Rigatoni Carbonara: you can't go wrong with carbonara and this was prepared excellently. \n\n6) Raviolini del Pline: you can immediately tell how much work went into rolling and folding these raviolinis - every bite was perfect and consistent \n \n4) Lemon Tart: The best lemon tart ever had - the desserts here are actually better than the best named Italian restaurants in NYC (so make sure you order like all of them)\n\n5) Basil Custard: A lovely unique fall dessert and surprisingly universal \n\nFrom a food perspective, you can tell that a lot of thought went behind creating and inventing the dish. You can tell that the pastas are carefully crafted and paired (from the type of noodles to the sauce). \n\nIf you want the authentic experience, I recommend always eating the dish the way it was intended to be because the Rocca team definitely knows what they're doing. \n\nWill definitely be back!",
"Rocca is a beautiful newer restaurant. Very nice atmosphere. The service is absolutely incredible.\n\nFirst came out some cheese samples from the chef. \n\nWe started off with the bread with lemon butter, which was delicious. Next came our calamari which was good but nothing extraordinary. My husband wanted to try a meatball on the side of his meal and they thankfully helped out with that. I'm thrilled they offered that up to him because we were pretty disappointed with the meatball. It was pretty pink throughout, and I don't care for eating anything with ground meat not completely cooked through. All in all, glad we got to try it for free since we would have really been unhappy with this dish. The meatball just overall didn't have the best taste.\n\nOur entrees came out next - I got the rigatoni carbonara. I started off not liking it. The pasta was on the chewy side, and while I knew there would be egg yolk. It tasted just like dipping cooked pasta in egg. It grew on me that I didn't mind it - but I wouldn't order it again. My husband ordered the tagliolini al ragu which was the real winner. If everything was as good as this, this would be a new favorite restaurant.\n\nHowever, everything wasn't as good. Most items were kind of underwhelming but not awful. I wanted to like it, but we just likely won't be back unfortunately.",
"Cozy, chic, relaxed, and surprisingly vegan friendly (yes - that means dessert too)! Vegan options are not explicitly indicated, but warm, attentive waitstaff were quick with recommendations, helping me navigate the menu with ease. The Rigatoni Arrabbiata certainly did not disappoint, but for me, the highlights were the thoughtful wine selection andd the chocolate sorbetto, topped with hazelnuts and olive oil - a must try for chocolate people. \n\nIn congruence with other reviews on Yelp and Google, I will note you should not expect to get a table without a reservation, even if the dining room appears empty. I arrived at 6 pm in a Sunday and were able to be seated at a table for two, but were politely given the impression that this was not the norm. This might be the case as they've only been open for about two weeks at this time , but Rocca offers quick and hassle-free booking services through their website with plenty of same-day options for smaller parties, so don't let it stop you from checking out this charming spot"

"Used to always go to beach location. So glad they opened up another spot here in Seminole. I got my standby \"Huli Huli Chicken\". It's sooo good and always end up having left overs. Taste cannot be described, you've got to give them a try. Super friendly staff. Place is spotless too!",
"Food is amazing and love the feeling of family here. First time, we came into check out and have a snack. We tried the spam musubi and it's just spam, rice, seaweed, and a sauce but it's was delicious.\n\nSecond time around, I didn't know what to choose and was ravenous so I go the Big Kahuna Combo and it was the best choice I could've made. It came with the Shoyu Chicken, Teriyaki Beef and Kalua Beef as the protein. This is top of rice and cabbage and side of pineapple slaw and macaroni salad. I ate everything. My favorite was definitely the beef and pork was a close second. The chicken was a little salty and dry but still good. I love the little bits of pineapple in the cole slaw to give it some sweetness. I will be back again!",
"Ribs and their stir fried veggies were fantastic. Clean and very friendly staff. Highly recommend. Will return.",
"Amazing Hawaiian food is always welcome! Especially in air conditioned comfort. This place is incredible! It's a beautiful dining room ready for ordering! Complete with Hawaiian art on the walls. \n\nHulu-huli chicken! Macaroni salad! Chicken Katsu! Rice! Hot sauce! Spam! \n\nLife is good!",
"I've never been here but I can't wait to go !!!! I love plate lunches !! Bring on the Mac salad !",
"Unfortunately Not many Gluten free options. Not celiac safe. Staff not extensive knowledgeable about gluten.",
"For those looking for a Hawaiian Plate Lunch, this is your place. There are various types of pulled and sliced meats offered; beef, pork, chicken, kalbi style short ribs, Loco Moco hamburger patty. A little salty for my taste. All meats are served on top of white rice with macaroni salad and coleslaw, just as a traditional Hawaiian Plate Lunch should.\n\nBut, I come here for the wings. They are super crispy, sweet, spicy, and sensationally garlicky. Ask for an extra side of sauce to put on all of the other meats offered.",
"I'm no connoisseur of Hawaiian food, but Aloha was definitely a welcome addition to the neighborhood! They're fast, friendly, and cheap, and your mouth will start start watering when the smells hit as you walk in the door. I haven't branched out past the Huli Huli Chicken yet (amazing marinated grilled chicken thighs), but with how good that is, I am guessing everything should be good quality. I liked the macaroni salad that came with, and my husband vouched for the chicken in sandwich version as well as the slaw.\n\nThey may have started as \"just\" a food truck, but it's easy to see how they've expanded- they definitely earned it.",
"Now I've never been to Hawaii. Aloha To Go is seriously making me re-think my decision. If all food is like this there, I'm moving immediately. Just kidding, but I won't complain that the new location is 2 seconds from home! Honestly, this place focuses more on food than decor, but you won't be worried about your surroundings when you dig in! Get the Huli huli (turn-turn) chicken along with the best macaroni salad. Also, get the wings. They are sweet, sticky, and crispy. \n\nThey also have a food truck that takes the aloha spirit across Tampa Bay. This is a place you don't want to miss!",
"Just passing thru and found this little gem. Food was delicious ~ taste like Hawai'i . We will be back soon....Mahola!"

"My husband and I had dinner on opening night. You should expect wrinkles or blips to happen on opening night and that's ok but there were zero. The staff and service was amazing! Every one was on top of their game with out being too much. The style and decor was clean and beautiful. Cannot wait for cool evenings to sit outside and have more of their perfectly crafted and totally delicious cocktails. \nCannot wait for the full menu to roll out so I can get that bone-in ribeye but for now I'm more than happy to keep ordering the perfectly cooked scallops I got last night. Great sear with a good medium-rare cook. Can't remember the last time I've had a scallop cooked that well. \nDo yourself a favor and check out this restaurant. A very welcome addition to the Tampa food scene.",
"What a fantastic first experience at Rome and Fig. When we arrived we were told our table was going to be outside but it was possible it would rain, instead of seating us there they sat us in the lounge with complimentary champagne while we waited for a table to be prepared inside. Once we were seated the service was quick and efficient. The polenta croutons on the kale Caesar salad were a great touch. The tuna tartare had a wonderful flavor with great wonton chips. The entree was the best part, i had the lamb chops which were cooked to perfection with a tasty glaze and my wife had the scallops. We will be coming back for sure! Incredible opening night.",
"Loved everything! From ambience to food - everything was beautiful and delicious. Well plated & great portions the prefix menu allows you to try multiple things! Menu changes every so often, so I have no choice but to come back ! This husband & wife duo knocked this Bistro out the park! Ps the drinks are everything! I can't wait to go back !",
"First night out in a long time. This did not disappoint. Fantastic soft opening menu. Gave a peak into the greatness to come. Whole meal from start to finish was wonderful. The Thai curry soup was a great surprise with wonderful flavors and a nice spice. The lamb was rich and melted in my mouth. Finished with the creamiest cheesecake! Also the cocktails and service was on point. Will be back again!",
"Went for the soft opening and will definitely go back! Everything we tasted had great flavor and was cooked perfectly. Great service and we are so happy this restaurant is only a couple of blocks from us. Can not wait to come back for the full menu!",
"My boyfriend and I are OBSESSED with this place. We went for the soft opening, and ended up making another reservation for the new menu this weekend. We ate everything so quick, I couldn't even snap a picture.\nWe began with the kale salad and curry soup. I was a little weary of Thai curry being turned into a soup, but I am a believer! The salmon adds a twist to the curry flavor while the veggies add a crunch.\nWe had the scallops and couscous, lamb shank as our main entree and we were blown away. I normally make Israeli couscous for myself at home, and seeing a restaurant perfect it is so rare. Everything was cooked perfectly, and we deemed these scallops the best we've ever had.\nWe ended the night with a gin and tonic cheesecake... need I say more?\nThis weekend they have a bone-in ribeye, and we can NOT wait.",
"Dinner tonight was an amazing experience. The food was flat out delicious, everything was spot on. The staff was friendly & knowledgeable, and the atmosphere of the room was so comfortable.\nWe'll definitely be going back! \nThank you guys, for a delicious end to a rough day! That really means a lot!!",
"Best service every! Mangers are amazing and so friendly! Servers were amazing! Food was to die for! And bartenders were so attentive and created amazing cocktails!",
"Just had our first meal at Rome + Fig since moving across the street to NOHO. Right off the bat; the atmosphere is amazing. Not a large establishment, but a very cozy upscale spot. Their drinks were great, from lower end beverages to pretty pricey ones. They didn't have a full menu out however they had their select menu for the night and every single item was phenomenal. From their kale Caesar, Steak to their peach pie to wrap it up. The staff is extremely friendly and a joy. The owners are very active and involved which made our whole night wonderful. We look forward to making this our normal date spot.",
"The service is amazing and the oof impeccable. The owners actually come around and visit with customers. It's nice to see that kind of passion and enthusiasm."

"Exactly what Nashville and Hillsboro village needed. Love the atmosphere and the service was great. Food was awesome- we had the Gifford's bacon appetizer- And for dinner the petite filet, pimento macaroni, and creamed spinach. All of the food was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. Peanut butter mousse cake was my favorite. We will definitely be back!",
"There's so much more to a dining experience than the food, and the team at E3 has thought of every detail. The staff is kind & thoughtful in their service, and the food is fantastic! The steaks are prepared as well as you'd expect, and the accompaniments are fantastic. The caesar is one I'll keep thinking about, and the lobster mac & cheese is decadent. Excellent addition to Nashville!",
"We went to E3 on their opening weekend. The downstairs bar was a great place to grab a pre dinner drink. Cozy atmosphere. Upstairs we were seated in a semi private table. The appetizers did not disappoint and were large enough to share. The Cobb salad was dressed perfectly with blue cheese. The star was the fillet. So tender that I could have cut it with a butter knife! Dessert was good but nothing to write home about. I would highly recommend for a romantic night out or a group dinner.",
"Last night the husband and I went in to check this new steakhouse out for apps and cocktails. Is is absolutely gorgeous and we had the most amazing server Rebecca! She took care of our every need. Oyster app was to die for. We will definitely be back to have the full dining experience and will for sure ask for Rebecca!",
"This was a 5 star experience on many levels. But I can't give 5 stars for the one reason listed below. \n\nWhen you arrive, you enter on the lowest floor of a multi floor restaurant. The entry is small, with a small bar and check in area. Don't worry, the view changes. \nYou are escorted upstairs to an expansive dining room, decorated in beautiful stone and iron and large windows. The dining space is not wide, but it is deep. Request a leather booth if you can. We were served by the lovely Rebecca, who knew the menu very well, and was a pleasure to interact with. \nWe started with the GIANT prawns, which were tender and sweet. The baked oysters have just the right amount of crunch and heat. And though bacon wrapped dates may seem lowly on this stellar menu, they were actually my favorite!\nI have 2 favorite fish dishes in the city.., but if E3 makes the Sea Bass a permanent offering, it would be my number one! Hubby had filet with charred broccoli and street corn. Excellent. \nThe dessert stole the show. Vanilla cheesecake with a banana bread crust topped with bananas foster. DO IT! They have an in house pasty chef and it shows! \nI'd say the one thing missing is music. For an establishment owned by music industry folks, they should at least have cool music playing overhead. I could only hear whatever they were playing very faintly. Couldn't even make out a genre. \nAfter dinner (or before) make sure to go to the rooftop bar. The music is better up here! We enjoyed wrapping up the night around the hip fire pit. Hillsboro Village has nothing like this! \nNow for the reason I withheld a star: What should have ended on a high note ended with a thud. After spending 400+ on dinner, we had to pay $7 to valet. It's not about the $7... but come on. I don't pay to park at The Palm, The Oak, Bourbon Steak.. For a restaurant in this league, you need to spot me the parking fee...",
"E3 was an exceptional experience for the following reasons:\n\nI visited here celebrating a birthday and also because it is a new restaurant in an area of town I frequently visit. We arrived approximately an hour before our reservation and was greeted by the valet to park ($7), he then led us inside to the lower level of E3. It was appropriately decorated for the holidays and the hostess and bartended warmly welcomed us and wished me a happy birthday.\n\nBefore we went upstair to our table we decided to get a drink at the bar downstairs and chat with the bartended Lauren. She was a phenomenal bartender who creatively made us cocktails off the top of her head. I would highly recommend stoping by her if you can.\n\nAfter the pre-dinner drinks we headed up the staircase to our table where our waiter promptly explained the menu and gave us some suggestions on what to drink/eat. \n\nThe food while on the expensive side is delicious. The sides we chose (Pimento Mac and Cheese & Gruyere, Gouda, and Garlic Mashed Potatoes) are shareable and could easily feed 2-4 people depending on the portions. I also order the 8oz filet and it came out perfectly cooked to order. On top of the remarkable food, I was surprised by the waiter with a gift basket that contained steak rub, homemade beef jerked and a desert pastry because I was celebrating my birthday. On top of that he dropped by with a flight of creme brûlée that was literally the icing on the cake to the main course. \n\nAfter dinner we ventured upstairs and sat by the fire and chatted with another bartender about the restaurant and how 10% of the net profits go towards non-profit projects in the Greater Nashville Area, as well as international projects.\n\nOverall, I would love to visit again soon and thank you to E3 for making a memorable birthday experience. \n\n*The only thing I could possibly complain about would be that they do not validate your valet for some reason? I do not really understand that arrangement but it is small detractor on the night as a whole.",
"Have had our reservation tonight for 2 months. Read all the reviews and was so excited to be here. First our party of 6 was reduced to a party of 5 and they placed us at a table for 4. Not a problem as it was early and expected the restaurant to be busy. When the tables didn't fill we asked to be moved and were accommodated with a large table that allowed us to cut our steaks without bumping into one another. Then, we brought bottles of wine to enjoy and agreed to the $35 per bottle corkage fee. Then....after opening 2 of our bottles was told that there was a limit to 3 bottles. This would have been fine if they had told us before so we could have chosen carefully. We planned to drink 4 bottles....oh well. The steaks were good but not great. The cauliflower and peppers side dish was fabulous. A real sleeper. The mashed potatoes were extraordinary. The truffle fries were tasty but cold when they got to the table. The banana pudding dessert was wonderful. All in all, it would have been a great experience had it not been for the rude manager who told us \"we can't have you bringing a case of wine in here and we have \"that\" on our wine list. He pointed to a bottle of Frank Family (by the way, it was a zinfandel which was not on the list). With a less snooty manager the evening could have been a huge success.",
"All the beef is sourced from a single ranch in Fort Scott, Kansas - thus the \"ranch-to-restaurant\" branding. I went with my girlfriend and her folks. Luckily, we are \"splitters\", so I was able to try a bunch of stuff: Bacon and Blue Salad, Ribeye, Filet, Alaskan King Crab, Grilled Colossal Shrimp, Gruyere, Gouda, and Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Street Corn, and a Bananas Foster Cheesecake for dessert.\n\nThe food was delightful. The Gruyere, Gouda, and Garlic Mashed Potatoes were probably the best I've ever had. The steaks were flawlessly cooked. They even accommodated our split portion request, alleviating an undesirable compromise - my girlfriend and I split a ribeye and they cooked my half medium rare (yum yum in my tum) and hers medium (might as well eat beef jerky).\n\nIf you had a gun to my head and told me to say something bad about our meal, I'd say that the ribeye was a little chewy. Luckily there is no gun to my head, so I won't.\n\nThe Bananas Foster Cheesecake was hands down the star of the show for me. I'm a Bananas Foster junkie as it is, and they put it on top of cheesecake... on top of banana bread. Like, instead of graham cracker crust, they used banana bread... Dude! It was so good that I started acting like an only child - using my elbows to fend off incoming forks and shit.\n\nIn summary, everything was great. The steak was not the best I've ever had, but the Mashed Potatoes and Bananas Foster Cheesecake were.",
"My family Went here last night. The staff was amazing and the food was one of the best steak places I have ever eaten at and I have eaten everywhere. A must when you want a top notch dinner. Seafood was as good as the meat.",
"Finally made it to try the new E3 Chophouse in Hillsboro Village last night. Great spot! The building is truly one of a kind with its 3 levels including the rooftop bar. Creative cocktails, excellent wine, and amazing food. Highly recommend for a top-quality dining experience!"

"It was my first time in Nashville and to my surprise there was a Blanco restaurant opening and I had to find out when they opened. The outside of the restaurant looks amazing, upon walking up you're greeted with a warm and friendly staff. We got sat and I believe we were the first ones to get seated at the restaurant. We were greeted by Joshua with such a positive and energetic attitude. He walked us through the menu and gave us some of his favorites from the menu. His trainer Logan was there to support him in every way. She was just as attentive and very friendly. Nicole also stooped by and made great conversation and took the time to talk to our table and made sure that we were having a great experience. Overall it was a magnificent experience and when I visit Nashville I definitely want to come back to a place that feels like home. The food was amazing the Carne asada Fajitas were delicious and not to mention the cocktails, they were gone and round 2 was a definite. Dessert, I don't even know what to say because as soon as they hit the table they were gone. It was a great experience with such a warm and friendly staff. Great job everyone. Knocked it out of the ball park. Cheers.",
"Wow- Simply amazing experience. Zac is a fantastic bartender but everyone from other bar staff to host and seater were so welcoming and caring. Hands down some of the best food and drink quality I have had. Can not thank you enough for such a great meal and hospitality. Look forward to many more visits. Highly recommend the chicken enchiladas- the sauce is amazing and so unique.",
"I have been to another location of theirs in San Diego and I must say, this was just as amazing. Their soft opening was incredibly successful. Manager drew and Matthew were great resources and came out to meet the crowd. Very informative and you know their staff were very well trained and a pleasure to talk to. \n\nTheir tacos were amazing. I recommend the bbq pork taco if that's what it is called. Guac was great tasting, and food was quick to get to you. The only complaint I'd have is to remove garnishes from the bar as people could possibly be too close to those but a quick fix. \n\nThis place is worth trying and very consistent across locations and being new to Nashville I can already tell they will have great success there.",
"We attended the grand opening today; we were the second group seated. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Our server was John and he was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive without hovering. The executive chef, Justin, came by to introduce himself and answer any questions. He returned after the meal to get our thoughts on the food. First, lets talk about cocktails. I had the Strawberry Shandy which was delicious...not to sweet but with a good strawberry flavor. My husband had the classic margarita and was not disappointed. For entrees we ordered the short rib tacos and the chicken chimichanga. Both were outstanding, very flavorful and fresh. The chips were hot and crispy. The salsa both red and verde were wonderful. From beginning to end, it was a great experience. I'm excited that locals have a hip, reasonably priced, and delicious restaurant on Broadway that isn't touristy. It's located in the new 5th and Broadway complex which is geared to locals with good shops and eateries.",
"What a fantastic addition to Broadway! Amazing food and drinks, highly recommend trying the strawberry & habanero margarita! Service was great, we can't wait to return!",
"So excited about this place! I got a chance to try it during their soft opening. From the moment I got there from the moment I left, I felt so taken care of! All staff members were friendly and attentive, including our great waiter Zac! The location is fantastic, including a great view of Bridgestone. The drinks really stood out to me for their balanced flavors and quality liquor. The positives don't end there, as my guac starter and carne asada tacos were also fantastic! I could've rolled out of this place with how much I loved the beans and rice alone, they were great on the side of the tacos. I can't wait to be back for more!",
"Great restaurant! This place is absolutely beautiful and the food and service were on point. The entire team did an amazing job and our server James was fantastic. I can't wait till my next visit.",
"100%. Top notch. Talk about the New Nashville. This place is in the best location, great window view, unbelievable staff. The margaritas are very good and not too sweet (I recommend the watermelon and the original). The food. Woah. The burrito bowls, everything is super fresh. The salads are also filling. And I don't know why, but their chips and salsa are just better than normal chips and salsa (and that was before our margaritas!). Definitely will be back here. It was a breath of fresh air of what Nashville can return to post covid while also being respectful and clean during Covid.",
"Drinks were great and service was good but food was not great at all for the price. Spent 130.00. Fajitas were burnt, elotes covered in so much sauce you couldn't enjoy. Great place to drink but kitchen needs some work.",
"Tried to go to Blanco all weekend, but clearly they are the new hottest spot, and rightfully so after finally getting to try it! From the ambiance to the amazing service we received from our server Ryan it was a can't miss experience if you're in Nashville. The food is second to none on broadway and the margaritas were fantastic! We will absolutely be back soon!"

"Good food, good place, i really like unagi combo, so delicious, I recommend this place for my friends.",
"Wanted to pick up a snack before heading home. \nI spent all day making a short rib stew, so\nI talked the hubby into stopping to pick up a few rolls.\n\nI called it in before we left the hubby's office.\nIt's also really close to his work.\n\nIt didn't take long for us to get there, and the wait was 30 min. wait...\n\nI ordered 2unagi combos, the Sparks, and the Chao.\n\nWe came in before our 30 min. And they were busy making our order. \n\nWe were offered drinks, and got free nigiri.. \n\nI didn't know the unagi combos came with rice, and I ordered 2 plus the rolls.... \n\nWe got home, and WOW! The unagi combos were PERFECT! My mistake, was a really good mistake!\n\nHubby are his entire unagi combo plus a few pierces of the rolls.. \n\nNeedless to say, my short rib burner will be tomorrow's dinner.\n\nThe unagi was warm, sauce on top was good, the seaweed salad and daikon was plenty, and the rice was cooked perfectly.\n\nI'm sure the hubby will forget my over ordering again..\n\nHe's totally",
"The place is small but the sushi is outstanding. If you like sushi, you will definitely love this place. We got the unagi combo and a few other rolls. The combo was so tasty! It comes with miso soup, seaweed salad, rice, unagi, and daikon. I ate the whole thing and sushi. We are definitely going back.",
"This place is amazing! I personally very picky on where I get my sushi, and this place is by far the best! Their prices are very reasonable and they have great food. Plus, they are super kind and welcoming! Definitely will be going back.",
"Stopped by for a low priced quality sushi, and my boyfriend and I decided to stop by. The workers were both very friendly and we enjoyed the food we bought for our first meal in Reno together!",
"Please support this amazing sushi spot! My partner Johnny and I ordered takeout and every roll was beyond delicious. The wonderful sushi chef threw in an extra roll and 2 miso soups for us on the house as well. They just opened a week ago amidst the COVID-19 outbreak, so help keep this gem of a sushi spot in business and order take out!",
"Stopped in for a quick lunch and it was made fresh to order and excellent! They even threw in a free cup of miso soup along with a sample of crab salad. The Rainbow roll was Delicious! I will be back for more to take home.",
"If you want fast paced sushi, this is not for you. If you want sushi that is handle with care and thoughtful presentation, this is a place for you. \n\nAs many reviewers mention their sushi are delicious but also jam packed with flavors to have your taste buds satisfy with each and every bite. \n\nIt's a family owned and operated which makes this place special. They have impeccable customer service and value the quality of food they serve. \n\nThis is the reason why I will be coming back to this place and will try everything on their menu. Literally they do not disappoint.",
"I went to 399 sushi for the first time last week 30 minutes before they were closing. They have a super noticeable store front sign that caught my attention while driving. They are a family owned sushi place and every experience I've had has been nice. \n\nThey focus on quality instead of quantity and take time to make sure that you leave there happy. The customer service is just as good as the rolls. I've been there twice now and have brought more of my friends to experience the food here. \n\nThey have only been open for two weeks and I hope that they get more busy. The interior design of the restaurant is very nice and the colors in the store are well put together. I've had the salmon roll with chili oil, the dragon, the chao, the superman and I believe a roll called lady finger (not sure if that is what it's called) but all the ones I've had are flavorful and fairly sized. It does take a while for the food to be ready but the quality definitely there! I'll be coming more.",
"It was an odd experience but the people that works there are super sweet. I made my order through the yelp app but I guess they did not receive my order. I was worried cause I did not want to pay twice but they didn't. They gave me a free miso soup, they really did not have to. I felt bad more than anything, it isn't their fault. Will definitely come back."

"Yaso just opened today, and naturally I had to get it for lunch! I don't have words to express how good the food is, you just need to go. So. Good. (I ordered the dark meat jerk chicken, spicy beef Jamaican patty, and fried dumplings) (ooh! I also recommend the Tropical Rhythms mango if you're a spicy-sensitive baby like me. The food isn't spicy per se, but def has a kick). Prices are affordable, service was super friendly. I ordered online and when I arrived, there was a long line to get in and the restaurant was pretty packed. My order was ready when they said it would be though (only 20 minutes later!). \n\nFor their opening day--I'm super impressed. And excited to have such good food and neighbors right around the corner.",
"Yaso opened this week in Fountain Square and I am so excited! Brought to us by the same folx who own and operate Jamaica Breeze, Yaso has something for everyone. Honestly, Yaso is exactly what FS needed to round out the dining options. So excited to keep coming back. \n\nAnyway, we went only a few days after they opened and they were SLAMMED. We walked in, ordered two dishes - dark meat jerk chicken and Oxtail stew. We went to wait in our car (carry-out) and got a text that our order was ready within 10 minutes. Lightening speed!\n\nWhen we got home, our food was still warm - our bag was a bit messy, fair warning. The jerk chicken was incredible and I loved the cabbage and plaintains that accompanied. The rice and beans could use a tad more flavor but I wasn't complaining. The oxtail stew was a showstopper - so tender the bites melt in your mouth. To top it all off , their spicy sauce was so so good. Definitely had a habanero vibe: fruity with the perfect amount of heat. \n\nI can't wait to become a regular!",
"Had the Dark meat Jerk Chicken and it was fantastic. Meat fell right off the bones and it came with plantains, cabbage and rice and beans. Thought the cabbage was absolutely delicious while the rice and beans were just so so. I do recommend getting extra sauce for the chicken and mixing the sauce in with the rice to get some extra flavor. Will definitely be back to try more on the menu.",
"Great food. Incredible staff. We tried the jerk chicken, wings, vegetable stew, and salt fish. Everyone loved it. Will definitely go back. Good ambiance with lively music. Some alcoholic beverage options. Wheelchair accessible.",
"This was such a great experience. I stop in to put in an order to go. I'm there maybe 15 minutes from start to finish. In that time I laughed multiple times, had a great conversation with the staff, and learned about Jamaican food. The interior is clean and appealing, the smells are divine, and everyone behind the counter feels like a friend you haven't met yet. And oh yeah the food? When I got in my enclosed car the amazing smell of this food hot boxed me more quickly than Willie Nelson's secret stash. I couldn't wait until I got home SEVEN minutes away so I was throwing back rice and beans with my bare hands like they were peanuts at a ballpark. Between my wife and I we tried the jerk chicken, ox tail curry, goat curry, and beef patties. My favorite was the goat, hers the chicken, but all of it we would eat again in a heartbeat.",
"What an amazing experience we had at Yaso Jamaican Grill! The food is incredibly flavorful. Try the Curry Goat and JD's Famous Oxtails. And don't forget the Jamaican Patties and dessert. If you can, speak with Chef Jermaine and his wife, Ja'Net. They and their family are what make Yaso Jamaican Grill all around wonderful!",
"Yaso is an extremely welcome addition to Fountain Square. I'm so happy they're here. I ordered carry out on a Saturday night using their website. It was really easy to use and gave an accurate time to pick up. The staff was very friendly inside as well. I had the jerk chicken, and it was absolutely amazing. It was smoky and tender and delicious. I will absolutely have it again. It came with sides of rice and beans, slaw and plantains, and all were very tasty as well. My girlfriend got the oxtail, and it was great as well. Very tender and with a delicious gravy. We got a couple of patties to share. One beef and one chicken. The beef was a little spicier than expected, which was great for me. The chicken had a strong curry flavor that was fantastic. I look forward to exploring the menu further, but that will be difficult with how good the jerk chicken is. Welcome to the neighborhood Yaso!",
"Yoooo!!! I'm always on the hunt for good food from the Caribbean in Indianapolis and while driving around Fountain Square I stumbled across Yaso Jamaican Grill. I was super hungry and I was hoping this place would satisfy my hunger cravings. \n\nWhen I entered the restaurant, reggae music was playing and the vibe was just right!! From the friendly employees to the music, I knew the food was going to be good too. The decor was super cute and festive. I def didn't expect that walking in. The menu was simple and had a lot of classic options. I ordered the Curry Chicken, with rice/peas and a double side of cabbage. \n\nThe wait wasn't too long and my food was hot and fresh! The meat was super tender and was sooooo savory. The cabbage was seasoned nicely and the gravy from the chicken mixed in with the rice and peas. Plantains were cooked perfectly. The portions were just right and I left filling super full. If you're in the area, I highly recommend Yaso Jamaican Grill! I will be back to try out other things on their menu.",
"This place is located in the Fountain Square area south of downtown. \n\nUpon walking in the the place, the decor and music make you want say, \"Irie.\" \n\nThe lady behind the counter was very gracious. \n\nI ordered a beef Jamaican patty. The meat was very flavorful. \nThe Dough was light and flaky, not heavy and doughy so that do you taste more dough than meat. \n\nI was given a side of sweet dipping sauce that reminded me of barbecue sauce with a Caribbean kick. \n\nI ate the patty so fast I forgot to take a picture! \n\nGreat addition to Fountain Square.",
"Excellent! Generous portions, great flavors, and they're not scared of spice. Their stewed cabbage is the first time I've had a cabbage dish that I wanted more of! My group had a large order that we placed over the phone and it was ready so quickly and they got everything right! Can't recommend this place enough."

"Expectations exceeded! Friendly staff, excellent ingredients. Cant go wrong here! Great salads and pizza & chicken wings ,loved the chicken BBQ pizza highly recommended ! \n A great place to stop, just off 589 and ehrlich rd .",
"Went into this place for my first time, with so many robotic pizzerias around,it's nice to see a small business pizzeria do their own thing, I was greeted by the owner, real genuine guy, ordered a hot philly sub, it was well seasoned and cooked just right, the potatoes wedges are baked and not fried that's a + for me, he also gave me a sample of his pizza, it was awesome, sauce wasn't to tangy or heavy on it. It is a must try.",
"Great pizza! Order a pepperoni pizza and Philly cheesesteak. The pizza had awesome flavor, crust was on point as well. The Philly cheesesteak was not the best but definitely satisfied my crazing for one. Both were cooked to perfection. I will be going back.",
"Just ordered large cheese pizza with 2 topping great special $9.99 .Very good great pizza family owned",
"So far customer service on the phone was good. Will revise review when I taste the product",
"Best Pizza in Tampa, Pizza Hut and Hungry Howie's don't compare to this place. The owner was wonderful and very kind. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!",
"Tried this pizza as was on way to Publix and stopped in for a slice. Owner was very nice and pizza was excellent. Brought my mom the next day and we ordered a medium pizza which again was delicious, but what stood out was the friendliness of the owner Rasif and his wife, reminding me of the mom and pop places as a kid I grew with in New York. The specials offered here are also great, including 1 dollar a slice pizza all day every day, so do yourself a favor if in the area and stop in, as I guarantee you will be glad you did.",
"Came in for lunch and ordered a small cheese pizza. Definitely impressed with taste and temperature! Delicious pizza and very cheesy. I would highly recommend to friends and family. This location conveniently located and service was friendly. Overall worthy of the 4 stars for quality.",
"Fast and pretty good. Not awesome... but pretty cheap and pretty good. Mushrooms canned, if avoid them. Will order again in a pinch for sure.",
"No flavor and they shouldnt be making subs..go, get Pappa Johns or Three Brothers, or Anthonys. The pizza is not worth the $ especially when you order from Uber Eats. On Yelp it didnt say they delivered or there website. But indeed they do, so when I called back because I forgot to order the small cheese on the order gentleman kindly said to make sure to call because the deliver. Now, he was very kind and told me that there is no way to cancel the order and next time he will will.make.sure.I get the specials, but sadly there is nothing special about the quality of the food\n\nMy son liked the small cheese pizza, but the sauce was lacking in flavor. This was $5. So, I ordered the Philly sub (Dishusting, the meat seemed old and tasked like so I just threw it away a waste of $8 as I wasnt to keen on eating pizza I had to endure eating the hubbys pizza. The hubby and son ordered a personal one to for themselves. My hubby had the meat lovers they put cheese and then all the meat in top which caused rhe meat to fall off when my husband was eating it. He had pick the piece up and place back on top of his pizza. Meat first then cheese, right or wrong?\n\nGoodness so all in all I spent $53 on dinner I wish I could have spent somewhere else. Hope you find it Useful"

"As Pottstown tries to transform into the next Manayunk or Phoenixville, the city is getting it's 2nd downtown brewery. JJ is located in a converted department store. They have maximized use of the space with the brewing in the back and an overhead area for bands to play and have plans for the downstairs (hopefully summer of 2020). The location does not have a full kitchen but there are several wraps (including a vegetarian) and wings available. The brewery had 5 of their own beers on tap and about 8 more local brews available along with various wines and liquors. There is definite potential for the brewery as they fill out the space and increase the kitchen. On Sundays, there are wing and beer specials. I look forward to seeing the brewery grow into the space and hopefully the locals will embrace the establishment.\n\nP.S. There is parking available along the street and a large lot behind the stores across the street.",
"Stopped for lunch after making a holiday return at nearby outlet shops and we were very pleased! Great atmosphere, solid beers and delicious sandwiches. I happened to visit the restroom where another guest and I both commented on how clean everything was - always a critical component! Will definitely be back.",
"Made our first trip to J.J. Ratigan's last night and were blown away by the service, staff, and food! Hiram and Megan took fantastic care of us, and it was obvious by the rest of the staff's hustle that everyone was working their butts off to keep the packed house happy. We ordered the grilled octopus, Gruyere French onion soup, and buffalo chicken mac and cheese-- all of it so delicious and decadent. So wonderful to see this culinary expertise in Pottsown! Thank you! We will be back often!",
"Great space, good service, nice beer and booze, excellent food. Can't wait to come back.",
"Excellent food and beer! We have been here twice now and each time was fantastic. The buffalo wings have great flavor with just enough heat and the pub burger does not disappoint. A great place for families as well!",
"Amazing atmosphere and friendly service. The High-Pa was my favorite because of my passion for New England Style IPA's. When it comes to the creative food menu the crab nachos were a delicious and filling choice. Definitely will stop back the next time Iam in town.",
"We've visited J.J. Ratigan a couple times before COVID-19 and before they had there full kitchen open. The food was so good, even then, we got a gift certificate for a friend. Now that their kitchen is open, we decided to order delivery last night. The menu is really interesting with lots of choices we wanted to try. The summary is that everything was GREAT!! We tried the fried cheese curds, cheesesteak egg rolls and cauliflower wings. Each was worth the order, all by itself! For mains, my wife got a burger (could be the best she ever had) and I the smoked prime rib (very good). Our problem is that we want to order again tonight! I highly recommend and will be ordering again very soon!",
"I really don't have much to say about JJ's other than incredible food, awesome beer, and a great environment. Wonderful addition to not just the community, but to the entire area.",
"Love love love this place! We've been ordering their curbside for awhile now but recently enjoyed their outdoor space. The tables were well-spaced and hand sanitizer was stationed at the entrance. \n\nWe started with the crab nachos (roasted corn, black bean tequila-lime salsa, artichoke-cheese sauce & nacho sauce on fried tortillas) which were super crabby and delicious. It's a generous portion, could have been a main dish or shared with 2 or 3 people. \n\nTheir spicy noodle bowl (cold soba noodles, sesame-teriyaki glaze, marinated egg, beef brisket, pickled veg, charred scallion, sesame seeds) is spicy, slightly sweet with the brisket providing a nice salty edge. It's something I would expect to find in a restaurant in Philly and was delighted to see it in a local Pottstown joint! \n\nNow to the important stuff, the beer! We tried the German Pils, Gooder Wooder (great name) which was light with a little malty finish. Perfect summer beer. On Mondays they do $12 growlers, pretty sweet deal. I'm not a huge hazy IPA fan but absolutely loved their HighPA. It wasn't too hoppy. If you're looking for a heavy hitter, the tripel is also excellent. \n\nThey've got a great crew too! Friendly staff and the food is always ready quickly and piping hot. Always happy to order from J.J.'s and looking forward to trying something new from them again.",
"Quick service, friendly staff and phenomenal food ! Cuban pork sandwich , homemade pierogies, cheesesteak egg rolls, and buffalo cauliflower-- all great !"

"Enjoyed the most amazing dinner at Cheesecake Factory in Clearwater tonight. T was an amazing server with an eye for detail and so accommodating. I could see her smile le with her eyes! McKenzie (I believe she's a trainer from Gainesville) was also so kind, mindful of all the tables around us and their needs. Thank you for opening and for the best food. We had an array of different things flatbread, Cuban, Cobb salad and Thai key lime chicken. Also we ordered three pieces of cheesecakes to go!",
"As Cheesecake Factories go... this is one. It looks and feels like all of them with the same menu. Cheesecake Factory always means -- large menu, large portions, and fairly large prices. \n\nWe were there on a very busy Saturday night just after this location opened. It was quite crowded. While they were honoring social distancing, the restaurant still feels crowded. I might not have thought so before COVID, but it feels that way now.\n\nEvery person on the staff we interacted with was great. Everyone is friendly, accommodating, and professional. The food is nice quality, well prepared, and nicely presented.\n\nOne downside to this particular location is going to be parking. The restaurant is located in a Westfield shopping mall (with entrances both inside and outside the mall itself) that already had parking problems. Be prepared for a walk, and handicapped parking will be at a premium.\n\nIf you are a Cheesecake Factory fan, you will appreciate having one in Clearwater!",
"In typical Cheesecake fashion, the establishment looks great, staff at the hostess station are friendly and welcoming and we decided to grab a seat at the bar for a quick bite of lunch in lieu of the 30 minute wait. This worked out perfectly and the staff at the bar were welcoming and very attentive to the current COVID requirements as they are gloved, wearing masks and the establishment has decided to keep everyone socially distant for seating. \n\nFor the lunch portion, my wife decided to order an appetizer of the chicken sliders and I thought I would try something else and found the lunch portion of the fish and chips. Service ticket times weren't terrible , the staff also offered complementary bread. The food was absolutely delicious and I can say I walked in hungry and rolled out stuffed... we of course added a slice of the tuxedo chocolate cheesecake which didn't help the situation. \n\nOverall 5 star experience for the new location and look forward to coming back.",
"This was my first time eating here. I was so impressed from start to finish. The food was outstanding! The wait wasn't bad 2 days after Christmas and the week of their grand opening. Loved the whole experience. I can't wait to enjoy it again! I'm a fan. Oh and the cheesecake was delish!",
"Had an awesome experience at this location. Our servers name was Javier and he was very good even when it was busy. We came at peak lunch time and ordered simple dishes like the lunch spaghetti and broccoli and chicken pasta. Both came out delicious and we didn't have to wait very long for them. Javier continued to come by and asked us if we needed anything during our meal and we enjoyed his sense of humor. Overall experience was wonderful and we will be coming back again. And one little recommendation, if you guys come here try out the cinnabon flavored cheesecake, that one is ridiculously good.",
"I don't usually write reviews, but after my experience here, I feel compelled to. I came into the restaurant in the late afternoon on a whim because I was given a gift card for my birthday and happened to be in the mall on this particular day. The establishment itself looked great, and the staff was friendly as well. It wasn't particularly busy, so I placed an order for an entree and a piece of cake for takeout. The girl behind the counter told me it would be about a 15 minute wait and asked for my phone number so that I could get a text confirmation when the order was complete. 15 minutes passed by and my name still hadn't been called--no problem. I was in the restaurant business for most of my life so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. 30 minutes pass by, and by now a few people that appeared to have ordered after me received their food first. Again, I was not bothered; perhaps my meal just took longer to complete. During this time, it had not gotten excessively busier than it was when I first arrived. I saw the manger and the hostesses talking up front when they weren't preparing orders or running food in their downtime, but still, I had not received my food. 45+ minutes pass by now, and I decide to ask one of the managers about the status of my order. By this time several people had come and gone with their meals. She went to the back and returned with my food which, by the looks of it, had obviously been done for some time. She handed me the bag with a \"sorry,\" and I left. I never received a text confirmation and nobody ever called my name. My food was cold by the time I got home, and I only live 7 minutes down the street. Needless to say I was disappointed to have to use my microwave for a $38 meal. I was really hoping this new location would be better than the one in the international plaza, but I suppose that's not the case. I find it strange that for such a high price you receive such low value. But then again, how much more can we really expect from a restaurant in a mall?",
"So far a solid Cheesecake Factory. We ordered takeout via their website which was easy to do. They are also associated with Door Dash for delivery if you want to do that. I wish they were on the food delivery app I usually use, but maybe they will be in the future.\n\nThey also have in person seating, but my husband and I are being extra cautious during the pandemic, so we haven't gone out to eat. For those that do go out, they were enforcing social distancing which was nice to see -- operating at limited capacity with diners spaced apart. \n\nThe staff was very friendly and seemed happy to me working there, which was also nice to be around. \n\nFor the food, I got the lettuce wraps and my husband got the calorie conscious shrimp pasta. The shrimp pasta was very small, but it is under 600 calories so just be prepared for that. Mine was a whole production -- packaged in two different boxes to assemble the wraps. But they're the famous lettuce wraps, so what can I say! Either way, I'm glad to have this staple close to us and I hope to dine in when things get back to normal.",
"What has happened to cheesecake factory? The food I got today is pure trash and that's exactly where it went. I'll include pictures. The chicken they use are not nice cuts of breast. They are fatty and full of gristle. Chicken chicken breast I get at Walmart is 10 times better than this nasty mess. Absolutely disgusting. I got the white chicken chili. It's supposed to be a \"generous\" portion. However, it's more like an appetizer portion. So small. For $16! I guess it doesn't matter because I took two bites and wanted to gag. In the garbage it went. There are also supposed to be beans in it. If you look at the picture, there's none. No beans in chicken chili! They also wont give you crackers. Not like it matters. Because it was so gross. The cats wouldn't even eat chicken. What a waste of $16.",
"So happy there is finally a Cheesecake Factory in Clearwater! From the moment you walk in the staff is very friendly & welcoming. Our server Jake H. was awesome! He came by to check on us regularly & made sure we were enjoying our experience & food along the way. He was also very knowledgeable about the menu letting us know the specials for the day, answering any questions we had as well as making cheesecake recommendations. I ordered the white chicken chili which was delicious. I had an amazing experience at this location & will definitely be back!",
"Everything was seriously fantastic. The hostess was so friendly and welcoming. Our server, Vinny, did an amazing job and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed everything. Other employees were extremely prompt with refilling our drinks as soon as they reached half empty or clearing plates out of the way as soon as we were finished. Everyone here is working together very well and it made the experience that much better. The food was incredible and fresh as can be. Very happy with our experience here!"

"Awesome selection of European and exotic beers on tap. Started with the authentic Bavarian pretzel with mustard and beer cheese as well as Buffalo cauliflower. The Philly cheesesteak was very authentic complimented with spicy relish. The chicken street tacos were right out of were right outta Compton. The chicken and waffles hit the mark! Can't wait to go back.",
"What a hidden gem. Everything about this place is amazing. Especially if you're a beer lover. They have the biggest beer selection I've ever seen a restaurant have. And some uncommon overseas beer. For our appetizer we had The pretzel. This thing is massive and perfect for a family of four. The owners are super nice and visited our table to introduce themselves. The decorations around the place are so good this almost looks like it should be a chain. They even have their own merchandise. All the food tasted amazing I had a chicken bowl made by Chef Scotty. And it was the \"Scotty special.\" So it's a regular chicken bowl but he mixed in some coconut and sweet Thai chili. It was amazing. Totally recommend this. My wife had the burger and that was delicious as well. Fries are perfectly crisp along with the tater tot's. And the chicken and waffles looked amazing. You have to come here. This is my new favorite spot",
"First let me say...I forgot to take pictures! BUT on a good side - this is my new favorite local place to hang! I love the beer selection here! They have all types but they have LOTS of Belgian tripels!! hello, my fave!!! \nThe food is off the charts, yes it's a sports bar and grill, we watched football!, but the food is fresh and FRESHLY made!! Not typical greasy bar food! That sold us! We had the Philly Steak with beer cheese...best I have had outside Philly! The hubby had the chicken bowl....beyond fresh with cherry hot pepper relish!! \nThe build out is great, lots of space and social distancing! Ask for Tara she is a great bartender from the great northern tundra! \nTry it and see....Reasonable prices and excellent selections. Highly recommend for some sports, beer and good food!",
"Great little find! Looking for something different in the area and so glad we stopped. Friendly clean and fun atmosphere with excellent food! Burgers were amazing and the giant barvarian pretzel was delicious. Save room for desert ( we didn't sadly) and get the Belgium chocolates! Definitely a new favorite",
"Great dinner to end a busy week. Very friendly and prompt staff. Our drinks were never empty or even near it. Very good precautions taking place with Covid. Highly recommend this restaurant!",
"This is a great place for a night out that feels like home. From the cozy shabby chic decor to the friendly staff and yummy selection of apps, sandwiches, salads and bowls, you will want to make this a regular stop. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming and the beer selections are too many to count. Pair a beer with the giant Bavarian pretzel and you are off to a delightful start. I got the veggie bowl with toasted chick peas and added chicken. My friend got a sandwich with pickles delivered from NYC. Being from NJ, those pickles are a walk down memory lane. Looking forward to going back again soon.",
"I've been here 5 times since it opened (a week or two ago)... Yes, it is THAT good! \n\nThe family that owns this place is so friendly & very hands on - with fantastic recommendations! The ambiance is trendy and yet relaxed, attracting a good crowd :) The bathrooms are very clean, & they have a lot of covered tables outside. I haven't had any trouble with parking.\n\nThe menu is very large (for both beer & food). And although I'm normally a \"find the thing I like and never stray\" type of person, I'm having a blast going through the menu and trying something new every time! The menus are paper copy, so I have one that I'm keeping notes on:) The menu is creative but not intimidatingly \"too far out there\" for me to try, so it's right in the sweet spot! I have many recommendations so far, but the one thing I will get every time I go there is the spicy cauliflower bites! Don't miss them:)",
"Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, good beer selection. However, the prices were way too high. $12 for a 6oz pour of a mediocre wine. $15.50 for a decent cheesesteak is a little extreme. It's a beer bar, beer minded-people don't want to spend $17.50 on a piece of chicken and some waffles. With these food and drink price points, I don't think this nice place will survive. We paid $80 with tip for a split meal and some beers and a wine. Lower the prices and we'll be back!",
"So good. I'm brand new to the area and still figuring out where my hangouts will be, and this will definitely be one of them. Brooke was awesome and super sweet, and very helpful with the menu and recommendations for new beers based on what you like. Riley came out to introduce himself which was great, and really nice to see someone who truly cares about how we found this place, etc.! the Pacino was great, my mom had a grilled chicken bowl that she loved and I tasted too. I tried a new beer, which now I've been googling where to buy.. I'll definitely be back here. Thanks guys!",
"Wonderful clean establishment. Awesome food and service. Really amazing Bavarian pretzel and amazing beer choices and prices. Very clean and kind staff. Great place to eat out. Family friendly. And some GREAT Belguim chocolate. woah!"

"As you enter this large restaurant you leave the suburbs and enter center city. The decor has a modern center city vibe with a wide open floor plan. My wife and I had the pleasure of dining here on opening night.\n\nWe had a reservation for 7pm and gave our name as we walked in. After about a 5 minute wait we were seated in the dining room to the left of the waiting area. Towards the back of the restaurant there is a well stocked bar and large sushi bar with (4) sushi chefs. It did take about 10-15mins before our waitress came over but I will give them a pass since it was opening night. She brought over water and a really cool glass tea kettle with what I think was green tee. Our waitress didn't know exactly what it was other than they just got it in from Korea.\n\nAfter pouring a cup of tea we perused the temporary paper menu. It was a bit hard to navigate because it was cobbled together sheets of paper and the appetizer section was printed in about a size 10 front. The menu was diverse with a mix of sushi and Korean BBQ options. One thing that stood out to me was how fair the pricing was. \n\nWhile we were deciding on dinner I had ordered a Woodford Reserve and ginger ale. Our waitress really didn't know what I was asking for but she wrote it down and it turns our they did have it. When the drink arrived I could taste the Woodford but only a hint of Ginger. I asked if they used a different type of ginger ale but it turns out they were just out of it and didn't know(I hope). I thought it tasked like club soda which was due to the syrup being empty in their fountain soda system. I will give them credit because they admitted the error when I asked. I still drank it because it wasn't terrible and the even took it off of our bill which I did not ask for.\n\nFor dinner I chose the Sashimi Dexluxe $26 and their #2 Chef's special roll $16 (Tuna, Salmon, Yellow Tail, wrapped in Japanese Radish with avocado, caviar & citrus cream). I must say the Sashimi was some of the best i've had in a while and the roll was large and had huge pieces of fish inside. I probably wouldn't get the roll again for the simple reason that it was hard to eat. The Sashimi was a great deal at $26 and I do recommend it.\n\nMy wife wasn't that hungry so we ordered their fried rice with shrimp and pineapple. The portion was large and we both really enjoyed it.\n\nOverall I was really impressed with Omiza from the decor down to the glassware and plates. The fish was fresh and the portions were large for the cost. We will return to sample some of the Korea BBQ options and I highly recommend this great new addition to Doylestown.",
"We always loved Oishi but since we moved to doylestown, it was kind of a hike to drive to Newtown. We couldn't be more thrilled that Omiza opened right down the road from us. It is absolutely beautiful inside. So modern and the staff is so friendly. The menu is very similar to Oishi's which is great because there are some staples we love (ie. the edamame purée dumplings & crispy crunchy rolls). So glad their third location is a minute from our home. We will definitely be recurring customers, eating there and getting takeout a lot!",
"The food was great, they have valet did not like someone else getting in my car. We ate outside and it was a chilly night should have had the heaters out",
"We loved Omiza! We are regulars at Oishi and KO in Newtown and we were looking forward to the new addition of Omiza. We were not disappointed! We had 5 small plates/sides and all were delicious. Our server Emily was great. We can't wait to go back and try the Korean BBQ.",
"I am sad to say Omiza didn't meet up to the hype. The restaurant is very pretty and they made a nice outdoor seating to increase seating outside. The restaurant is large so can definitely seat a lot when able to do. They have a full bar with great selection. The drinks were pretty good and not watered down. I love the clever names. However, the food just didn't meet my expectations. They had several sushi options and that too with brown rice which is a great healthy option. However, the sushi, ginger and wasabi just weren't as flavorful as they sounded on the menu. The chicken satay was pretty good but the chili sauce just wasn't that flavorful. The Thai red curry similarly was weak- it just tasted really watered down. I also wasn't a fan of the fried chicken or tofu on the side - literally no flavor :/ The tofu ramen was more flavorful but I wished there was more broth and the tofu was done well. Finally the chicken bulgogi just tasted like Chinese garlic chicken with msg - just too salty for my taste. I was a little frustrated by the two menus and what was/wasn't available but our waiter was really nice and willing to find answers to all our questions. I want to give them props because I think Doylestown needs more upscale Asian restaurants (all ethnic restaurants for that matter) but I think they have kinks to iron out - most importantly to pick out some key menu items and just do it really well! Personally I won't be returning here for a while until they have figured out some things.",
"Omiza exceeded our expectations. The stars of our meal were the Cha Soba Salad (pistachios, figs, and a dreamy dressing) and the Wagyu Beef and Galbi barbeque which were among the best we have had. Don't expect a traditional Korean barbeque experience, this is definitely a refined and elevated version that is focused on quality over quantity. The grill is also well-ventilated so our clothes did not smell like barbeque which was a plus! The restaurant itself is beautiful: spacious, airy, high ceilings and modern/minimalist decor. This was our first dine-in experience since the pandemic started and at no point did we feel uncomfortable or exposed to other diners. They also have outdoor seating under a canopy tent. It was a wonderful evening!",
"This place was definitely needed in Doylestown. Hidden gem with an Asian flair. Korean BBQ, Sushi and Bao Buns galore. Came here for lunch and got the Omiza Butchers Feast to share. Great cuts of meat, veggies, accompaniments and lettuce. Staff is super friendly and the owner stopped by to see if we needed anything else. We will be back. \nCheck out their happy hour!!!",
"Sampled a number of small plates. All were excellent, especially the Yellowtail w/jalapenos, soups & dumplings. Gotta go back & try sushi.",
"My husband and I knew after trying Omiza on the opening day, we had to go back with our family when celebrating a special occasion yesterday. We made reservations and kept telling our family how great of an experience it was. To say the second experience was a let down is an understatement. We were seated outside and it took 30 minutes for us to be greeted by a server (even after notifying the hostess we had been waiting for some time). By the time our server came, we were ready to place our drink, appetizer, and entree order. We ordered a total of 3 appetizers. However, when our salads and appetizers came out they excluded one salad and an appetizer. When we asked the server about our missed appetizer she said, \"You didn't order that\" and walked away from the table without any apologies or anything. Which at that point, we didn't want the appetizer because we waited nearly an hour for the appetizers. We then got our meals, one entree was excluded from our six person table. Our waitress assured 'Oh I'll be right back with your meal' but never returned to the table. By the time the other meal came out, the 5 of us had completed our entrees. Our server eventually came back to clean plates after never checking in since getting our food, only to leave her serving tray on our table (literally in the space of two guests). Even when dropping our bill off, coming back to get the cash for the check, the server never once removed the serving tray from the table. Aside from the service, the food was amazing. The quality of food is great and there is a large selection of meals to choose from. Very disappointed by the service because we really truly love the food at Omiza!",
"This place is new and I am new to this area too. \nI just figured to explore but I found this nice place on yep as new and hot. Place is nicely decorated and it has two sides, one is Japanese style and other one is for Korean bbq on the table. I went there with my daughter for lunch, ordered sushi and sashimi special, sushi was just ok, but sashimi was fresh and thick slice which I only expect this kind of food in NY or NJ. It was too good, salmon was the best. No lunch menu and no soft crab but still recommend highly. I will definitely come again soon. \nSecond visit, I went there again with my family but it was evening for dinner. It was little bit busier than lunch and servers aren't that prompt to notice to bring the appetizer on time and also missed my salad that comes with dinner menu. Beware there is no sushi/sashimi boat for big party as four of us, so we have to order all individual dishes. It's little mixed feeling here."

"FINALLY!!! We have been waiting for this neighborhood spot to open up quite sometime. Let me tell you... it was well worth the wait! Because of COVID-19, we haven't been eating in at restaurants, so picked up some food to go. I was immediately greeted by the general manager and one of the host staff. I was directed to the bar to place a Togo order. The general manager answered some questions I had about the menu, but didn't have any recommendations, as she said all of the food was great. I went with the calamari, but will try the eggplant rotini next time, and the linguini with clam sauce. The owner stopped by to say hi and see what I ordered. He recommended me putting the calamari on top of the linguini. GREAT IDEA! It was a textural delight! I was a little disappointed when the bartender told me they didn't have any spicy olive oil to heat up the dish, but I loaded it up with crushed red pepper once I got home.\nI only live about a mile from the restaurant, but let me tell you, that drive seemed to take FOREVER!!! The food smelled SO delicious!\nThe smells weren't deceiving. It was great! The rolls were very fresh and the garlic olive oil for dipping was unreal! #mustlovegarlic . The house salad was fresh, as was the dressing. \nLooking forward to many more meals, whether it be takeout or dining in. \nWelcome to the neighborhood!",
"Fantastic food, great service and an awesome wine list! I went with a party of 7 people and we all raved about the food, every meal was delicious! I will definitely be back and often! The salad, the bread, the main dishes...6 stars out of 5 for me!",
"All I can say is Espisito's did not disappoint!! My wife and I went there for dinner last week and had the scallop cupcakes, Fiocchi and the Picatta. Everything was absolutely amazing!! You can feel a hundred years of family pride all over the place. We felt very safe there and we both really felt like we gotta away for a couple of hours. Carrollwood is very fortunate to have Esposito's here!!",
"Why 4 stars? Because this is a welcomed addition to Carrollwood.\n\n --- --- ---\n\nWe've watched the progress of Esposito's from afar for months now and have been very curious to hear when they might open. Unfortunately, the owner's of this establishment were obviously victims of really terrible luck as they tried to open a small restaurant at the height of COVID-19. I feel terrible for them and hope we can do our part to help them make up for those tough times.\n\nOur first experience was enjoyable! We opted for to-go after we put the kiddo to bed, rather than subjecting the patrons of the restaurant to his temperamental behavior. My wife handled picking up the food while I was in charge of putting a baby to sleep.\n\nWe ordered the octopus appetizer and it was pretty unique, in that, it was very soft. Usually octopus almost has a rubber-like texture to it. I dug it but wouldn't necessarily need to order it again.\n\nMy entree was the fettuccine carbonara - something that's a big hit with both the wife and I. I really enjoyed it and my wife would have eaten a lot more of mine, but.....\n\nShe ordered the The Famous Fiocchi, which is basically a pear pasta dish. It was really amazing. Definitely the best I've ever had. It came with some dried prosciutto on top, which was interesting, but the flavor of each bite of the pasta overshadowed the rest of our meal.\n\nWe finished with a tiramisu, which was also amazing. My wife usually doesn't love tiramisu because of the heavy coffee flavor, but the coffee is barely tasted in Esposito's version. They add these little cookies on top, which were a great touch.\n\nOur second visit was only a few days later and this time we dined-in. No appetizers, no desserts - we just went right for the entrees.\n\nWe shared chicken parmesan and the Risotto Ala Ybor. This was an ideal pairing, as they were both very different. The chicken parm came with a separate small bowl of spaghetti, which was a unique presentation. \n\nThe risotto was excellent, but incredibly rich and filling. I can eat like a champion but even with my wife, we had no chance at finishing this dish. \n\nWe will happily visit again - I'm really glad to see this place finally open after what I can imagine had to be an incredibly challenging time for everyone involved.",
"Food was delicious. Hearty portions and friendly atmosphere. Loved the old rat pack tunes playing in the background",
"Tried Esposito's for the first time this evening. We did curbside pickup. The food was excellent, good sized portions, and the order was correct. They don't have curbside pickup down to a science yet, but it was an excellent experience overall.",
"My friends and I went to Esposito's last Thursday and it was excellent! I am so excited to have a nicer Italian restaurant in Carrollwood. The manager and entire staff were amazing!",
"So I came across this place before they opened and was lucky enough to have some conversation with the owner Paul we talked about some favorite meals. We got here at 5:00 and so glad we got here early the place filled up fast.\nWow OMG this was a delicious meal. The red sauce on Gary's spaghetti and meat balls was delicious, I had the chicken Gorgonzola and fettuccine Alfredo. We were both blown away with the many later of taste in our meals. The service was amazing. Ashley is a great server she shared her favorites with us and lead us to some great food.\nBonus Paul remember me from my other visits and remembered my name, this sign of a true profession.",
"Went for the first time last night and will definitely be back! The food was delicious (and that doesn't even sound strong enough!). We had the Eggplant Rollatini for an appetizer - amazing! If you think you don't care for eggplant, this dish will definitely change your mind! Had Gorgonzola Chicken for dinner - so good. Even the leftovers were good! The service was excellent as well! We are so grateful to have such a special local restaurant in our neighborhood!!",
"Fun new spot that opened close by! YAY\n\nI think they just opened about a week or so ago. My girlfriends wanted to do a happy hour and I said 'I know the perfect place to try'. \n\nIt's in the old Carmel restaurant and nothing much has changed from there except for some added italian scenes in picture frames. I love how contemporary this set up is though. Their wine bars make for good picture spots also!\n\nI'm usually the first to get somewhere and luckily my other friend is timely also... we were able to order 2 sangrias at 7pm... ironically as soon as the rest of the girls got there they wanted sangria as well and were told...'there is no more...' whomp whomp... but all of a sudden towards the end of my meal the waiter tells my other friend there is sangria... how do you run out ... oh well they were able to try other wines.\n\nI always like to go to places with friends so we can all order different things. I studied the menu beforehand and knew 100% I wanted the antipasto and scallops (just didn't know if I wanted the entree or appetizer for my meal) The Antipasto board came out and was so beautifully presented ... worth the trip just for that and drinks. We also tried the calamari and that was a lot better than carrabbas or other chain places. Their bread is 'garlic knots'!!!!! WHAT?! Ya you read that right 'garlic knots' and they are smothered in butter and garlic!!! yumm We also had the calms but for some odd reason when they came out they smelt a bit more rancid that we had liked.. We had to take it off the table because we couldn't get over the smell. With every entree you get a salad and because we were a party of 6 they presented this beautiful salad plate that makes me want to make salad like this at home all the time! ughh soo pretty! We loved all the toppings and the house dressing as well! \n\nOn to entrees! If you're thinking date night.. this is the perfect place to split an entree! IT was SOO much, most of us had to take a to go box! My friend had the linguini with clams and she was like 'I thought there were only 4 clams because of the presentation but NO they are so many in here!' My eggplant parmesan came out with spaghetti and I was like wow! It was literally like a foot long and tasted great! I knew I wanted a scallop dish but the entree version had [pink and sambuca which are both something I don't want especially with my scallops I think white sauce... I did the appetizer and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I told my husband we're going back just for the scallops and antipasto! \n\nOverall, its similar to is italian chair competitors but I love that it's a local family and that makes it even better. I read another review that said they would do seasonal menus and that is right up my alley! I always love to chat up the waiters and management about the restaurant but with 6 of us chatty mommies, stuck at home during this pandemic all we wanted to do was giggle and catch up... I'll pick your brains later Esposito with the hubby! =) Welcome to the neighborhood!"

"Anyone who knows me knows I love both ramen and bubble tea. My boyfriend and I have been waiting for them to open as they are now the closest ramen and bubble tea place to us in south Tampa. I happily give them 5 stars for both the ramen and bubble tea! Don't think we will be making the trek to Ichicoro again anytime soon.",
"Literally in the past week realized Token Ramen was opening near myself. Yes, it's open, I noticed yesterday. It's actually the soft opening. It's in a good location & it will be very busy. \n\nI ordered some fried chicken wings which was hot & very good. The main entry was hibachi with shrimp and chicken. The shrimp is full of flavor & delicious. The veggies and chicken cooked very nicely. Also, the entree comes with soup which I think it's the Miso soup. I didn't realized soup came with it. \n\nThe strawberry lemon green boba tea is so refreshing. \n\nI can't wait to go back.",
"Waiting over 35 minutes, restaurant is completely disorganized and not preparing food in the same order that the customers placed them. Then received only a partial order. Would not come to this location.",
"They are still in their soft open phase, so they are a little disorganized. That being said, I love ramen and boba tea, and my husband loves hibachi, so this place covers both our likes and is also very convenient to us.\n\nAs I mentioned, this location just opened up this week, but I've been to the Fowler and Brandon locations. The menus are very similar. The interior is very bright and clean. Right now, the only options are take out or delivery, although the dining area looks like it'll be great once the coronavirus situation settles down.\n\nI had the tonkatsu ramen. It was pretty good, and the serving size was quite generous. My husband had the hibachi beef, and he really enjoyed it. We also shared an order of the ninja chicken, which was tasty and still crispy despite having to travel home with me. We also had an assortment of bubble teas. They were a little sweet to me, but my kids loved them.\n\nI can see my family becoming regulars at this place.",
"Came in yesterday 07-10-2020 as they newly opened. Definitely not impressed the very least very very very disappointed to say! I have gone to Kung Fu on Fowler twice weekly so this location was highly anticipated for ME. They need to shape up and make drinks to consistency. Will not recommend to anyone for the time being. I need to ck them back in a few months. I ordered milk tea with grass jelly & taro slush with grass and BOTH were made incorrectly. Sorry not sorry ! Have not try food yet ( scared ) to ....",
"V excited to see a good boba place in South Tampa. The ninja chicken nuggets (popcorn chicken) was good, v flavourful. I ordered a taro milk tea with 30% sugar, it was quite sweet and the taro tasted a little bit weird but overall okay, taro is a risky choice anyways. My friend got a coffee milk tea which was delicious. They also have crystal boba here!! \n\nAlso they took less than 5 mins for my order. Will come back soon and try ramen sometime. The place is big and clean.",
"This Kung Fu tea is in the middle of the pack. We got the coffee slush with boba and the winter melon milk tea. I agree with Vivian that they need to improve the mixologist of the tea. Somehow it do not have the taste of harmony. The ingredients is good. The honey boba is still very good. But the the tea bitterness need to tone down. Caffeine is well maintained but the the tea bitterness somehow need to reduce. Milk is a bit heavy compare to many milk tea I have tasted. \n\nThis restaurant has token ramen section. We did not try their food this time. But will plan next visit to try their hot food. I like the open kitchen with glass wall allow the customers see their food preparation. It has increased the interest of the food.",
"love this place, everyone working there is very sweet and will correct anything if you need :) coming back soon!",
"The drinks are standard. Nothing amazing. Nothing bad. I'm taking off two stars because the first time I came here they had run out of boba over 30 minutes before closing... What kind of boba place runs out of boba. The second time I came, they said it'd take 10 min to make the boba and I called RIGHT before to make sure they had it (it took 5-7 min to get there). Again, shouldn't a boba shop always have boba available... Am I crazy?",
"My friends and I went to get some drinks only to find out they were out of boba...how does a bubble tea joint run out of boba?? The following day we wanted to give it another try so we called ahead (30mins) to ask if they had boba in stock. The employee said they did but when we got there to pick up our drinks we were told that the boba was being made and that we'd have to wait for our drinks. I hope this KFT get's it together or they will have many frustrated customer reviews."

"I really liked this place! As per the name, the restaurant has a distinct country feel, from the decor to the menu. Best of all, the prices are unbeatable. The servings are medium-sized and you can usually choose 1-3 sides to go with the main dish. This food is good, considering the price; it's not too heavy or too oily and seems fresh. The menu has a wide array of dishes, so there's plenty to choose from. Friendly service tops things off.",
"Whenever I visit my friends in St. Pete, I make it my mission to enjoy Pofolks before heading back to Miami.\n\nAside from having a great selection of southern comfort food for the cheap, the real reason I go is the sunday special: all you can eat fried chicken, sides and bread for $7.99. Add in a few more for the sweet tea that is mandatory for a southern meal.\n\nThe chicken is great by itself, though each table comes with hot sauce, and I always ask for honey (fried chicken + honey = win). There are over 20 sides to choose from, including greats like mashed potatoes and gravy, fried okra, cottage cheese, green beans with ham, and so many others I can't even remember. Breads include a buttermilk biscuit, hush puppies, cornbread (ain't nothin wrong with that) and a parmesan breadstick.\n\nOnly recommendations: get there before the churches get out, because it gets packed; save room for the baked apple slices for dessert (its a side, and you'll probably be too full to remember); and check out the selection of old school candies they have at the register.",
"Once again...one of the best places in St Pete to eat for the price. The chicken served here is better than any of the chain stores. \n\nThe service is fantastic. Just great all around home cooking. \n\nPo folks is a great sit down place for just over what you would pay for fast food.",
"I've had fried chicken in the past and I can assure you that this isn't on my top 10 list. I wanted like this place so much.... \n\nLet's begin. Well we came here around noon and were promptly seated. Our waiter, Jim was took our order immediately and the food came out very quickly. We ordered fried pickles, Fried chicken and country fried steak. This is where our excitement for the food ended...PERIOD! The fried chicken still had a pool of oil in the crevices, the chicken fried steak was good as chewing on a piece of leather. Fried pickles...never had them before so I can't compare but it definitely will be my last time.... \n\nOverall...This place was pretty bad.",
"I remember when this chain went all the way up the east coast. I was so upset when the majority of these chains closed. It was always my childhood treat!\n\nI was in awe when we found it down here. Oh boy! It was way better then I remembered.\n\nTheir buffalo wings or anything chicken is to die for! I've never had chicken this moist and juicy. The price is more then reasonable, it does say it all in the name.\n\nI haven't tried anything else other then the chicken but the next time I come back this way, I will be sure to try their whole menu!",
"Went down to St. Pete for vacation, met up with my Aunt who sent us to the best fried chicken place around. Well, it is better than KFC, and yes the best that I have had, but I have not had a lot of fried chicken.\n\nNot in the best of neighborhoods, so go early or go to lunch. Don't go after dark. The portions were big, hot and tasty. I go back there every time I go to St. Pete.\n\nJust a little bit of Chicken Fried!",
"I was leery, and didn't have time to Yelp it before my mother and I went to lunch...\n\nHad the fried chicken, and it was good. I mean, it wasn't dipped in gold or anything, and I didn't jump out of my seat and dance around about it. It was good fried chicken - though not the best I've ever had. Sides were good, cornbread was kinda blah...\n\nMom had pot roast, & she dang near licked her plate clean! \n\nAlso, it was some other patron's birthday, and the server's came out \na-clapping singing a Happy Birthday CADENCE. Too funny!! \n\nHighlight of the meal: FRIED PICKLES.",
"This is, hands down, the best southern food restaurant anywhere! I remember Po' Folks when I was a kid and lived in Brandon (Hillsborough County), Florida, and we loved to eat there as often as we could. When it closed, my heart broke. When my husband and I moved to Pinellas, I was ecstatic to find out that Po' Folks didn't shut down everywhere! My husband takes me there as often as we can. They have THE BEST fried chicken anywhere, moist, juicy, tasty....definitely lives up to it's name as Blue Ribbon Fried Chicken!\n\nI used to love the mashed potatoes until they changed them to instant, but they're not bad. I used to love the big biscuits, but the last time I ate one, it was very dry. Now I get the parmesan bread sticks and they are delicious! The fried okra, collard greens, mac n cheese, baked beans....etc......all good!\n\nMy husband has had the fried catfish and says it's very delicious!\n\nThe atmosphere is pretty much a hoedown, loud music, lots of people talking, and the occasional birthday song, therefore noisy, but since we expect it to be that way, it doesn't bother us a bit. If you're after fine dining or peace and quiet...don't bother going here. The servers are all very nice, very attentive and fun. \n\nWhen you go to pay your bill, the counter is laced with candies that will really take you back to your childhood if you're 40 and older. They also sell t-shirts. I keep sayin' I'm gonna get one of those!\n\nAnyone who says the fried chicken isn't the best....doesn't know southern fried chicken. I'm a Kracker through and through and I'm tellin' you, it's the best!",
"Southern cookin that won't break the bank.\nGreat southern dishes at affordable prices! Bought the 16 piece family meal for 23.99 (minus $2 coupon in paper), and it came with 6 jumbo buttermilk biscuts, a gal of tea, & 2 huge helpings of veges of our choice. Their mac & chz is outta this world! Fried okra, yum. Can't wait to go back to try more of their offerings. It may be a week though, because we'll be eating off these goodies for a while with the amt of food they give you!!",
"I used to go here as a child and family loved it.. We always got the fried chicken.. Fast forward 20 years.. and I moved to FL and ate here. A year ago, I was horribly not impressed. Everything was like meh.. BUT I tried it again and I took my mom here a few weeks ago and had their fish dinner. WOW what a turn-around!!! I told the server to pick out his favorite sides.. And he was on top of his game!\n\nFast, friendly, helpful and just did a great job. \n\nThe sides were actually all very tasty! Every item, I cleaned up and left nothing to clear! The fish was tasty and hot and very nicely done.\n\nThe iced tea was great! \n\nThe speed was amazing!\n\nTartar sauce was the only thing I was not a huge fan of.. But all else was amazing!\n\nThanks -- I will be coming back!"

"Always looking for amazingly authentic food, and Bae hits this on the mark. I've been very impressed with the newly opened Venezuelan restaurants and Bar is a great contender! If you're looking for an authentic Latin breakfast, lunch, or dinner- Bae is the place for you. My only complaint is I wish there was one closer to the southeast side. \n\nThe chicken on the arepa had a delicious marinade and the cheese has a wonderful authentic flavor. The arepa itself is thick and crunchy and a taste of home. As for the Colombian bowl, my initial response was that the beans were delectably sweet and when mixed with the egg yolk it added a salty savory element. The ground beef was well seasoned and the rice was steaming. The portion sizes are generous and well worth the cost. We ordered to go, but there is plenty of space for dining. \n\nGo get your fill, you won't regret it!",
"Fantastic food and service. Ordered online for pickup and our order was ready to go within a few moments of arriving. We ordered the Guey Tostones, a Vegan Arepa, and the Steak Parrilla. All were very tasty and didn't disappoint. We are looking forward to coming back soon!",
"Amazing food! Carmel/Fishers needed this sooooo much. Tacolanos and the Cuban Bowl are fantastic choices. I hope they stay open well past the Pandemic and thrive.",
"We live a couple minutes from this place and have been waiting for them to open for a while. I did not expect the menu to look as good as it does. My wife and I ended up ordering food for 4 just to try some stuff. There isn't much left.\n\nOur favorite was Parrilla Mixta. Beans were excellent as well. Personally I'm not a plantain fan but enjoyed a couple.\n\nI am very excited to be their neighbors and look forward to eating my way through the menu. Just don't all come at once and screw up traffic around my house.",
"A fantastic new addition to dining options in Carmel. It is not spicy food, as you might assume being Latin American. The Venezuelan Arepa was great, and the tacos were a nice sampler to several flavors. In particular the shrimp one and what we think was beef were both super yummy!\n\nAlso, love that they take such pride in their work. They clearly are cooking with passion. I hope they survive the Covid quarantine, and we will order pickup again soon.",
"I wish I had a picture but we ate everything too quickly! We ordered our food to go. We tried the arepas,tostones and a bowl. Everything was hot and fresh. The flavor was amazing, everything cooked perfectly! We will definitely be back. Thanks so much!",
"We ordered DoorDash from Bae and it was delicious!! The black beans and rice were exactly like I remembered my friend's Cuban mother used to make. The chicken parrilla was so tasty that my daughter and I fought over the last bite. This is such an unexpected delight for this over-saturated area! I will definitely be back.",
"1st time trying this new spot. Wonderful service, excellent food! Loved the Cuban bowl, the shrimp pepitos sandwich and steak bomba were especially good! Go see Alberto and ask for his homemade sauces!",
"If you just want a taco or standard meal, this is not the place for you. There are authentic Latin dishes with robust flavor for a great price. There are only a few tables and the place is counter service casual but the food could easily be served in a nice restaurant.",
"Do not walk, RUN to this awesome food spot!!! We got three bowls: the Cuban, the Venezuelan, and the Colombian + an order of tostones. Can I just say all were DELICIOUS. Such an easy accessible way to get fantastic Latino food!! Take a break from Chipotle and get the good stuff"

"Welcoming a new healthy and delicious build-your-own bowl concept! Tonight was their soft grand opening and everything on the menu looked delicious! The owner was very welcoming and told us all their ingredients and sauces are made in house!\n\nTheir concept includes building your own bowl (protein, base, sauce) or getting their pre made bowls! There are a ton of vegetarian options and different flavor profiles here so that everyone can enjoy! \n\nThe aesthetic is super cute and has an outdoor dining patio! \n\nFor food - I went with the humm us a song bowl and the fiancé got the hula hula bowl. Both were delicious - loved the fuego sauce that comes on the hula bowl! The coconut basmati rice was very fragrant and added a nice flavor. \nI would say the portion sizes (protein portion) could improve for the price point. I will likely upgrade to double protein next time. \n\nThe drink options were super fun and tangy! We loved the beet lemonade. Also their cookies were delicious - recommend the chocolate chip (molten brownie texture inside).\n\nOverall the flavors were very yummy! We are excited to try all the other unique bases, sauces and toppings.",
"We tried Little Leon tonight. It was awesome. The food and service were great. We had the Golden Hour and Bean Spirit bowls. Everything was fresh and healthy. There was inside and outside seating and excellent parking. We highly recommend this new addition to the healthy fast casual genre.",
"Great experience. Food was delicious and the restaurant aesthetic was super cool. They were accommodating for my meal and my partners my meal too. Owner was cool. Will be coming back!",
"I was really excited to try this new restaurant because their menu looked great, but when I went inside multiple employees were not wearing masks, and multiple customers in line were also not wearing masks. It made me extremely uncomfortable to see the employees who are handling the food not wearing masks or enforcing that customers wear masks so I left without getting any food.",
"Ordered the Leon and was pleasantly surprised with the amount of food. Meat was seasoned to perfection. Also, great spot for Instagram pics! Will DEFINITELY be back!",
"I stopped in for lunch shortly after Little Leon opened on my daughter's strong recommendation and it did not disappoint. \n\nFirst impression: Strong curb appeal. \n\nSecond impression: Clean - important yet often overlooked. \n\nThird impression: OK, that repurposed wash basin with the fresh mint was clever! \n\nFourth impression: greeted upon entry by the owner. Nice touch, and vital - owner engagement is necessary for consistent high quality across the board.\n\nAs for the food, I went with the Thai, Thai Again bowl. Crazy fresh, crazy good.\n\nIn short, a major upgrade from the Ethiopian restaurant that formerly occupied this space, and a welcome addition to the South Tampa dining scene.\n\nI'll be back.",
"Well what a surprise... came here for lunch ... still pretty new and the staff seemed a bit unsure with the menu so just keep an eye that they get it right ... the staff was friendly, for now the owners and manager was there ... good music playing ( retro) ... and place is new and clean ...\nOk now for the food review ... they have a salad side and a bowl side ... I got one of the pre written bowls that was suggested called the \" golden hour \" it had turmeric quinoa, kale w lemon, sweet n spicy sweet potato, maple bacon Brussel sprouts, roasted beets , feta , pumpkin seeds, and citrus chicken with a maple vinaigrette.... \nthe flavors popped and complimented each other with each bite ... the food was super fresh ... and extremely filling ... my wife had the heart beet salad w added chicken, and had the same experience.... \nI would recommend to browse the menu and you can build your own salad as well ... \nif I had to compare it's like FRESH KITCHEN, but for salads.... \nI would definitely come again ... and either sit in or take out ...\nBest of luck on your new establishment....\nDoc....",
"I was anxious to try Little Leon when I saw the advertisements on Instagram. Their concept is similar to many other \"healthy bowl\" restaurants in the area. You can select already designed bowls or go for the custom option. \n\nMy husband and I both opted for build your own. They have many ingredients to choose from and the portion sizes were plentiful. However, once I actually started to taste my combo, I was not too thrilled. I ordered the lemon kale and cauliflower rice as a base. The lemon in the kale was very overpowering and the cauliflower rice added a gritty texture to each bite (it looked grated). I also asked the staff about ingredients in the food and they were not knowledgeable. \n\nWe were not a fan of the juices. We ended up going back to try each one but ended up dumping them out. Overall, the food was ok but we definitely were not wowed. Probably won't be back anytime soon, but if we do, I'll try a different combination of ingredients.",
"I was excited to try this new bowl concept in Tampa. It seemed to have a really good selection and so many options. I said I wanted a four bowl but then employees got confused and by check out I was charge for a 6 bowl. The protein section was a bit lagging. The bowls look good but unfortunately are lacking in flavor severely. I got the cauliflower rice which was dry and bland as well as the rice noodles which were slightly spicy. Then I got the Brussels and sweet potatoes as they were recommended which were average but not crispy at all. Then I got the spicy chicken which did have a bit of a kick and a piece of bone that I found in one bite. This was quite concerning. So besides the bowls lacking flavor, not being wowed by any part of the bowls, and food not cooked super well finding a bone piece in my chicken just completed my experience in trying this new restaurant. I do not plan to go back anytime soon. You will find better quality and flavor at a lot of the other local bowl establishments. I was hoping my experience and the food would be a lot better.",
"I've tried Little Leon twice now and have really enjoyed it both times. Their protein is very good quality and the sauces (especially fuego) are awesome. Lots of choices- several base, veggie and protein options. The decor is really cute and now I hear there is wine! So will be back."

"Great new sushi spot in Lakeview not to be missed. Unique tasty rolls and keto friendly options. Distinct flavors that make this place special. I almost don't want to share it is that good!!!",
"Delish specialty rolls. Great menu options. Wonderful service. A perfect new Lakeview sushi spot for families or couples.",
"As Betty, the owner, was explaining that she named her specialty sushi after very brave courageous Japanese women, the chef handed me a gorgeous white sculpted plate donned with a gorgeous spicy tuna roll. Fresh seems too cliche' for the sushi served in this chic casual sushi bistro. This sushi was mouth watering, slap-ya-mama good. By far the best sushi I have had since my last visit to Ocean Beach San Diego! Kid You Not. Now, I say the food's deliciousness; well, it is matched by her impressive southern taught, at minimum, hospitality offered by the entire staff. To the chef, who happily indulged my food allergies by creating a custom roll, topped with emoji garnishments, paired with his own wasabi oil soy based sauce. \nBetty has put time into every detail, selecting lotus pendant light fixtures and Japanese paper lanterns to hang over both her sushi bar and bar area. The spectacular mod chinaware in various shapes serves as the canvas for presenting the scrumptious sushi and entree selections. From the gorgeous bamboo chopsticks with engraved etchings on the ends, to a beautiful kimono hanging on one wall, every detail carefully chosen. A nod, perhaps, to the honorable Japanese cultural that influenced her own appreciation for quality. Congratulations, Betty, you did not disappoint! Highly recommend!",
"Wow! A Gem of a restaurant just opened up in Lakeview. I had a opportunity to dine there for lunch today, and looking forward to my next visit. I had the 2 roll lunch California roll and snow crab roll. The owner and staff are friendly, courteous and attentive.",
"Great sushi, amazing service, and the fried Brussels sprout are maybe the best in town. Definitely give this new spot a try. You won't be disappointed.",
"Really good! Tried it last night for the first time and loved it! The Brussels sprouts were great, I tried two specialty rolls and they both went above and beyond my expectations! Can't wait to go back!",
"Sushi is probably my favorite food, so as soon as I saw a new sushi spot in my neighborhood, I had to try it. The owner, Ms. Betty welcomed me in and is seriously the sweetest! I sat at the sushi bar to eat and the sushi chefs, Edgar and Dylan, made sure I was completely satisfied before I left! Jonathan always comes out from the kitchen to tell me hi and makes the best crab rangoons around!Since my first visit, I've been back many times and haven't had anything I didn't like yet. Definitely my new go-to!!",
"Went to try the \"new kid \" on the block. And I have to say everything was fabulous. We tried the Spicy Edamame they are served warm, with a touch of smoke flavor. So so good). We also ordered the chefs special Fried Calamari it was a beautiful Dish fried crisp over a bed of fresh spinach topped with an Asian Sauce. We decided to order simple Sushi Rolls so we had Crunchy rolls they were above my expectations they were so good we ordered an extra one. Also, had the Spicy Tuna it was great very fresh. Our waiter was friendly, attentive and was eager to answer any questions \nWell, Lotus Bistro Welcome to Lakeview see you again soon",
"Amazing food, staff, service and atmosphere! Can't wait to go back!! Trust me, you've gotta try this place!!!",

"I came here on the 2nd night it opened and it was amazing!! First off, the interior design was unique and beautiful. The restaurant is spacious and I loved how everything was set up. The food was great too - tasty and authentic! You also get good sized portions too (I ordered way too much food), which is rare in Old City. I cannot wait to go back and have my friends try it out!",
"This place has seriously delicious food. Everything I've had so far was spectacular particularly the General Tso's Chicken and fried rice. Really cool vibes inside the restaurant and I'd even recommend taking out or ordering delivery if you can't dine-in.",
"The food is absolutely fantastic. Great dumplings. The ribs are a great cut of meat. and the entrees will give you a hearty portion you'll probably need to take some home. The back bar has a great selection and the bartenders can shake a good drink.",
"Me and a couple friends tried Mei Mei while visiting Philly. We decided the get a variety of items and taste test. We really enjoyed everything. Loved the mei mei fried rice. And the service was wonderful.",
"Went with my friends and we all ended up waiting an hour and a half for our food just for it to be mediocre. Took way too long to get our checks and they also got our checks wrong initially so we had to wait even longer. Overall not a good experience at all, will not be coming back again. Please do better",
"Took way too long for the poor quality food to come out and they messed up our checks multiple times/ took way too long to process them. Ended up being there for over two hours with an experience that was extremely unsatisfactory. Would not recommend.",
"Incredible food and the nicest people working here! Can't wait for them to open up the inside, because it is amazing! Rashid makes fantastic cocktails and is a fantastic human being!!! Come try this place! You will not be disappointed!",
"Came here for an after dinner drink and I will say service here was amazing! My boyfriend ordered some LoMein noodles with chicken which were good, my cousin and I had cocktails which were ok, nothing too exciting. \n\nBad: whenever it was time to pay the bill the server took exceptionally long to charge the card and bring it back to us we had to have waited at least 10-15 min and it was near closing so that was kind of annoying.",
"Hi all! I just wanted to say I just had a wonderful experience at Mei Mei, of course it was outdoor seating and me and my daughter arrived just a tad bit before they opened but we were seated gracefully by Rashid (sp?) who is the bartender and shortly thereafter greeted by Hailey, who brought us out ice water and was ready to take our order right away as we knew what we wanted, the food was great, the staff wonderful, and it was a good send off for my baby who's moving back to Pittsburgh this week! Kudos -Tammy",
"Been wanting to try this place for a while and had the opportunity to this evening. Food is very good. Has the Korean chicken bites as an appetizer and enjoyed both the chicken as well as the Korean-spices sauce. The bites were fried, but were still able to retain their moisture, which was nice. \n\nThe main course was shrimp chow fun, also terrific. These guys clearly have a way with spices, they can be sublime and powerful at the same time. \n\nMy only (minor) complaint is that the shrimp chow fun could have used a few more shrimp in it. Lots of great, perfectly cooked noodles but not a ton of shrimp. \n\nThis is a new place and I welcome them to the neighborhood and wish them the best. They are a great addition to the Old City dining scene."

"My parents know the owner of this place because they live in the same neighborhood. The pasta is amazing!! I have tried the whole wheat and the spinach pasta. Both of them were amazing!!! For fresh pasta, definitely check this place out!",
"I was there today at lunch. I'm Italian and I can confirm this place makes a real home made Italian pasta.\nWe also ordered a burrata cheese as appetizer and was delicious!\n\nYou can also order many different types of Pasta For pick up.\n\nPrice is great, the place is very clean and we love the fact that tables were definitely socially distanced.\n\nRECOMMENDED!",
"I love discovering new restaurants, especially ones with such hard working and passionate owners. Not to mention, to open a restaurant in the middle of a pandemic is no easy feat, so I'm writing this review in hopes that we as a community can help sustain this wonderful and may I add, delicious, Italian restaurant. I present to you: Pasta Fresca! \n\nLet's start off with the owner and chef of this establishment. His name is Paolo and he has an absolutely cheerful and upbeat personality. Throughout our dinner service, he would occasionally check up on us to see how everything was. He showed his funny sense of humor when we told him that we created a business page on Yelp for him, he said to make sure to leave a bad review because everyone seems to talk about negative topics more often, creating more of a buzz throughout some communities. We all laughed and we assured him with sarcasm in our voices that we'd leave the nastiest of reviews for him. Like most Italians, Paolo grew up with a fairly large family with a passion for cooking. There's an old family photo on the back right corner of the restaurant; try to guess which one is Paolo! \n\nWith the owner of Pasta Fresca established, let's move on to the interior and most importantly, the food! It's a fairly spaced restaurant with only a few tables against the walls, probably to follow COVID-19 guidelines. In the front of the restaurant stands a display case with uncooked pasta (rigatoni, spaghetti noodles and spinach spaghetti noodles) and their sauces. If you don't want to eat in, you can purchase whatever is in the display case and make a nice meal at home. We chose to eat in and their food was spot on! \n\nThey have a fairly simple menu which makes deciding on what to get easy if you're indecisive like me. We started off on two appetizers: the Burrata chese and the Piatto de legno. Every bite of the Burrata chese was so refreshing; plump, juicy tomatoes with burrata topped with pesto sauce. Yum! The Piatto de legno came with three cheeses, bread, and bruschetta. Definitely a fun app to get amongst friends. When it came time to order our entrees, we ordered the following: Rigatoni and Bolognese, Regular Spaghetti with Bolognese and for me, the Spinach Spaghetti with their Vodka Spicy Pink Sauce. I love me a good Bolognese sauce but my favorite was my dish with the Vodka Spicy Pink Sauce! The sauce was thick and creamy and covered every nook and cranny of the spaghetti making every bite just as satisfying as the last. The spaghetti itself was a perfect texture. I'll let my room mates review their dishes (if they ever do) but I reassure you, we all left satisfied and happy. After our plates were cleared, we finished our meal with some Cannolis! \n\nWhen my room mate first told me about a new Italian restaurant in town, I was surprised that a business would open during these tough times. But when we met the chef and owner, Paolo, it was easy to understand that if anyone could do it, it would be him. Paolo has such a positive and spunky attitude towards life, being in his presence almost makes you forget we're living in a pandemic. From what we ordered, the food was flavorful and delicious. And whether you want to eat in or stay home, you can still support Pasta Fresca either way!",
"We tried Pasta Fresca for the first time this afternoon. Took home some of the pasta and sauce and a serving of the meat lasagna. The pasta is incredible. Being made fresh, the pasta isn't as heavy as the processed stuff from stores. The lasagna was delicious! And the cannolis were very very good. The owner Paolo, was the nicest person. We will go back regularly.",
"Fresh homemade pasta perfection! This place went to the top of our list when it comes to fresh authentic pasta made with organic ingredients with a wonderful variety of sauces that you can mix or match to your taste or make the luring decision to order the daily special. The menu is simple yet plentiful and the daily specials are fresh and lively as they should be. We ordered both the Caprese and Burrata salads as appetizers, fresh rigatoni with tomato basil sauce, the special Spaghetti Vincenzo (my hubby wanted to lick the plate), and cannoli for dessert. Each bite was wonderful and the fresh pasta was perfectly al dente! The owner Paolo is from Italy, very kind and friendly. He came out and spoke with us for a while and we promised to be back seeing him again very soon! Buon appetito!",
"My wife and I have been very excited to try Pasta Fresca once we found it recently opened. We had such an amazing lunch! The owner Paolo was so kind and created a fun experience telling about tales of Italy and his family. \n\nWe both got the ricotta ravioli with vodka sauce and were blown away with how incredible it tasted. It reminded both of us of meals we had in Italy it was that authentic. And we had to try their cannolis, which was also amazing. \n\nThank you for such a memorable meal Paolo and we will be back many times.",
"I tried several of Paolo's fresh pastas and his sauces. He uses his grandmother's recipe for the pasta, and they are amazingly light and delicious: the best fresh pasta I've eaten. His sauces are delicious, too. In fact, my mom asked me yesterday to please pick up another container of the Bolognese sauce and package of fresh Fusilli -- it's easy for her to cook at her apartment, and very nutritious. I personally love the spinach Pappardelle.\n\nI hope others will put Pasta Fresca on their list of weekly (or more) markets. It's a great place.",
"Pasta Fresca tucked away inside the Shops at Bartley Ranch, very unassuming. \n\nThe layout is very thoughtful to address covid measures and the decor is modern and bright. As soon as you enter your line of sight is immediately directed to the cold case where they have their many varieties of fresh pasta, sauces for the day and fresh mozzarella. You can dine in or take out.\n\nFor this visit, we dined in for our date. Great setting for a quiet meal. Before we visited my husband called to learn of non dairy options and was told that the tomato Basil and bolognese did not contain dairy. My husband ordered the fusilli tomato basil with sausage and I ordered the pink peppercorn fusilli with the pink vodka sauce and sausage. \n\nThe food arrived to the table and it looked delicious, immediately my husband noticed that his plate had sprinkled Parmesan all over it, he picked through what he could. My dish smelled good but as soon as I tasted it was immediately dissatisfied. The sauce had no flavor, no seasoning... just the flavor of cream and bitter garlic. I tried my husbands and again, no flavor just the flavor of wine and garlic cooked at high heat. Both dishes lacked seasoning. The sausage in the dish lend some flavor but for me, was gamey in flavor. The sauces just weren't good. The fresh pasta however was made very well. You definitely taste the difference with fresh pasta. \n\nWe ordered a cannoli and WOW WOW star of the show, the ricotta was perfectly sweet and the shell was crispy crispy fresh. Mmm. I could of eaten cannolis for dinner.\n\nI'll definitely be back to grab and go fresh pasta and cannolis",
"Great fresh pasta, good prices, and absolutely charming owner/host!! We will be back soon!",
"I loved this restaurant. The food was delicious. This place is brand new and is doing a great job. The owner was very friendly. We will definitely be back!"

"The Cheesesteak and the Cowboy hot sub were great. Service was very friendly and I left full. Portions are good size and prices are a good value",
"Our department decided to order lunch today and it was delicious! We ordered the John Wayne, the Bird and the Buggy. The bread was soft, the oil & spices were perfect and there was a load of meat in each sandwich. I would highly recommend and we will definitely be going back!!",
"I have now eaten here twice and will definitely be back. The subs are really good. My first time here I got the Calamity Jane and a side of fries. They were super busy that day so there was a bit of a wait, but it was worth it. The sub was filling and tasty. The fries were hot and cooked perfectly. Today I dragged a coworker with me. I got the hot pastrami and breaded pickles, she got a ham and cheese. Her sub looked really good and she devoured the entire thing. My hot pastrami was delicious! The breaded pickles were AMAZING! My only complaint was that I did not get two orders. The breading is really good and not greasy like some beer battered fried pickles I've had. I have only ordered to go, but their dining room is pretty big. If you are ordering to go, I recommend you order ahead of time so the food is ready when you get there. The first time in I had to wait for my food. This time we ordered ahead and the food was ready when we got there. Definitely adding this spot to my list of take out lunch spots.",
"It's very good. I had two philly cheese rolls and the chicken philly. Chicken is made with ground chicken and is seasoned beautifully. Owner Jason is very very nice and caring",
"I've been dying to try this place since I've seen reviews on it and let me tell you, it was absolutely delicious! There are so many things I want to try now. I had the Buggy which was awesome. The meats were delicious. My husband had the Billy the Kid and loved every bite. The quality of ingredients is so good and cooked super fresh. The bread is perfect for a sub. Can't wait to try a regular cheesesteak and the hot pastrami.",
"Came to Reno to visit a friend and we decided on sandwiches for lunch and let me tell you they did not disappoint us! I got the Buggy and it was absolutely fabulous a little sweet, a little spicy and what a bang for your buck, the sandwiches are huge! I also got a cherry egg roll with a scoop of ice cream and I was throughly pleased. You can tell these folks really care and take the time to assemble your sandwiches 10/10 would always recommend! Wish I had a photo for you but I ate my food quickly.",
"Came here because of a Facebook group. The pictures and the description sounded so good. It did not disappoint, I got their Buggy sandwich. It's basically an Italian sub. Soooo yummy. I had also gotten their fries, they were tasty but I do prefer them crispy. I could have got a bum batch. It's not a big deal to be. I'll definitely be back. There are other sandwiches that sound really good. Wife got their strawberry cheesecake eggroll. So amazing.",
"Called in a hot pastrami and Philly cheesesteak and two fries.\n\nDecided to eat inside and glad we did!\n\nSandwiches were as good as the pictures.\n\nFrench fries are really fresh and the sandwiches were tasty. I like the thinly sliced onions and shredded lettuce.\n\nWill try the burgers next round!",
"A fellow coworker told me about Caris Sub Shop, he claimed it was the best he'd ever had! Stopped by today to see for myself, ordered the John Wayne. Hands down the best sandwich I can recall ever having! This place is my new favorite sandwich place in Reno!",
"Sandwiches were delicious and unique in that they do not taste like chain sandwiches. This was a great find. We will be back soon!"

"Service is horrible- our waitress, Barb made us feel rushed and as if we were inconveniencing her. It was obvious she felt swamped even though there was no wait and only 1/4 of the tables were full for Sun. morning breakfast. \n\nShe cussed under her breath, let out large sighs and literally yelled across the restaurant to another waitress to refill our coffee. It was obvious management has no expectations or personality requirements for staff- I overheard most waitresses saying something negative, talking about personal issues in front of customers and generally looked unhappy to be there. \n\nWhen ordering my eggs I said \"over medium or whatever the cook needs to know so that there is no runny part to the whites\". Of course they came over easy, and raw white parts. After trying to catch her eye a few times, my husband finally raised his hand and waived at her to get her attention. I had a bite of sausage on my fork when I explained the eggs were too runny. She literally grabbed the plate our from under my fork, loudly exhaled all her air and walked off \"to show the cook what I meant'.\n\nI don't care if the cook screwed up, apologize to me and get a new egg. \nThere was no apology, nothing. After that, she knew I was frustrated and tried to be a bit more hospitable- that brought her up to poor instead of horrible. \n\nIf it was just one waitress, we'd return. But the whole restaurant felt angry, rushed and tense. It doesn't matter if the food was good or not- it's breakfast, how do you screw that up? We won't EVER return. And we typically go every time we go to Tucson to visit family.",
"Iffy but accomodating service. Great food! The remodeling job makes it a much better atmosphere.",
"Great place to grab breakfast and eat a slice of pie. Their menu is pretty extended but nobody can beat their cinnamon bun french toast.",
"We've stopped going to this Coco's. The food is good, but they never have enough staff working during dinner hour through the week. Our last (and final) visit there was about a month ago. There were only 2 servers, and one cook had called in sick leaving the manager to do the cooking. The servers seemed harried and were running around like chickens with their heads cut off. We finally got water after waiting 10 minutes. After waiting another 30 minutes, we still didn't have our food. We finally walked out. This has happened to us 3 or 4 times over the past year. The staff always says the corporate offices won't allow the manager to bring in enough servers. When we called the corporate office to complain, they told us it was the store manager's responsibility to bring in enough help. Too much fingerpointing. Anyway, we will not ever return. It's too bad because the food really is pretty good if you don't mind watching grass grow while they prepare your meal.",
"I can't tell you the last time I ate at a Coco's, but I am guessing it was sometime early in the Reagan administration. Now where I live, we have a similar restaurant chain named Perkin's, but Coco's has been absent in the Kansas City area for quite some time.\n\nWhile on vacation in Tucson, we were looking for a decent, sit-down place for breakfast (my daughter wanted pancakes) and we passed this place every day, so we decided to give it a go on a Monday morning. We got there a little after 7 AM and it was not busy.\n\nCoco's is a family-oriented diner, plain and simple. Those semi-circle booths and the swivel seat counter spots are a dead giveaway you are not going to be charged an arm-and-a-leg. They offer so many different options that, like Denny's, you'll be amazed at how many different combinations they can squeeze out of eggs, hashbrowns, toast, pancakes, and pork meat. \n\nWe ordered some kids pancakes for our 4-year old (and they were plentiful), my wife had an egg-sausage-hashbrowns combo with some fruit, and I chose the buttermilk pancake combo. Our waitress was attentive and gave us good service. We noticed she used a computer tablet to take our order, so the moment she entered it, the order had already shown up in the kitchen and was being prepared.\n\nThe breakfast was fine. I would prefer that places like this either not offer bacon or at least get something heartier than two thin fat strips, but other than that, the food was good, as were the service and the prices. We would not mind returning some time for a future visit, and would also not mind if Coco's rose to a greater presence once again, moving Denny's out of the way.",
"How do you totally mess up a club sandwich? Take a turkey and bacon sandwich, add another slice of bread and charge 8.99 for it. How do you add insult to injury of said sandwich? Serve it with cold french fries. This was the most bland, tasteless piece of garbage I have ever been served. The pickle spear was warmer than the fries, and had more flavor than the sandwich. The worst part was when the waitress tried to tell me that ham doesn't come on any club she ever had. I will give her a piece of advice: treat your customers like they are smarter than you, because they probably are. Big time fail coco's. Big time. One star for this outing,only because they took it off the bill.",
"If you're ever eaten at a Perkins or Dennys, you know what Coco's is like. Their menu is a few pages of moderately priced options and contains all the standards for both breakfast and lunch: omelets, french toast, burgers, sandwiches. There's nothing stand-out at Coco's, just the standard fair. As for the taste of the food, it's also standard and unexciting. If you're expecting something better for your money, head somewhere else, but if you just want a crowd-pleasing breakfast or lunch for a family, head to Coco's.",
"My family ate out at cocos tonight and it was not very good at all. We ordered prime rib and ordered it medium rare...it showed up beyond well done and the waitress told us that the cook had over cooked all of it....when I questioned about it she said she had never seen it cooked so dark before and she was sorry but she did not offer to let us order something else, to let us return it, to take it off our bill etc....we ended up not eating much of it at all and I brought it home to our dogs. The veggie mix was under-cooked and had no flavor. We never got refills of our water or soda. For 50 dollars for 4 meals we were greatly disappointed and will not ever be going back there again.",
"My wife already wrote a review of this restaurant, so I will not repeat what she has already stated regarding the crummy service and well done prime rib (ordered medium rare). A complaint was sent to the corporate offices of Coco's regarding this visit, and we have heard nothing back from them at all. I'm not looking for a free meal, or a discount, because I wouldn't go back anyway. Only an acknowledgement from Cocos, or perhaps an apology. This probably explains why Cocos was not crowded, and why there is only 1 or 2 of them left in town.",
"Gary and I (two parts of our \"dining trio\" when my mother joins us) wanted to try Coco's again. We had eaten here often in years past. They have since redecorated and completely overhauled their menu.\n\nI was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the Cobb salad, and it was a robust portion and very fresh. Even the bacon was freshly cooked. The blue cheese dressing was excellent. I felt it was well worth the $8.99 fee. Gary ordered the hamburger and opted out of fries and instead ordered coleslaw. He enjoyed the burger and felt the coleslaw underperformed a bit.\n\nThey are big on baking pies at Coco's. I didn't treat myself to any on this trip but keep it in mind, when you go. TIP: They also feature a pie of the month at a lower fee, for those who want to take some goodies home (or to the hotel)!\n\nThe ambiance is much nicer than its former decoration. The waitstaff were friendly and prompt. We found the menu amazingly different than its former offerings. It looks a little more upscale and still offers a lot of variety, including a senior's section, and a few gluten-free selections as well (nice touch, Coco's). The menu creators seem to be addressing today's dining trends for selective diet choices. In this day and age, thinking heart healthy, and being special-diet conscious for one's customers is a smart business choice. If you ate here in the past, give it a shot now ansd try it out. One thing I've learned: most of those short order cooks and chefs hiding in the back really pride themselves on their work. Communicate your needs and let them do some good cooking for you!"

"I had their street corn nachos. So good. I forgot to take a pic. Huge portion. Well designed. Delicious flavors. I'm so excited that they are opening. The Streets of St. Charles has some great restaurants, and a quick serve option is an excellent addition. I look forward to trying their other options.",
"We tried the crab Rangoon, street corn, banh mi, Jamaican jerk and the standby. All were wonderful!",
"Heaps of food w one serving. Toasted Rav app is heat. Service was friendly, efficient, and quick!",
"The service was great and the nacho options are soooo unique and tasty. The owner was friendly and took time to ask me what I thought about the place. I'll definitely be back!",
"First full day open and we picked up multiple nacho dishes to try: the Jamaican Jerk (in a grain bowl format), the Mediterranean, the Ol' Standby, as well as the Cannoli nachos and rice crispy treat.\n\nAll in all, the main dishes were great. While the bowl got mixed up, the other two were left in nacho for, which allowed us to figure out the good and not as good qualities. In the Ol' Standby, virtually everything was delicious and worked well with one exception: the pickled veggies. Everyone thought the addition of pickled cauliflower and carrots to be bizarre, contradictory ingredients to the dish. In the Mediterranean, the balsamic onions and Kalamata olives provided a tartness that consumed the dish, which wasn't bad at all, but the flavor of the meat and tzatziki were both muted, which was a little bummer. I, personally, wasn't a fan of the pita chips, but that was just a preference because they were so thick. In both dishes, we felt that they were ultimately great dishes with small additions that didn't really work, but everyone is different and you may enjoy every aspect of the nachos. On to the desserts.\n\nThe loaded rice crispy treat was something like a 4\"x3\"x3\" block of rice crispies, marshmallow, and a load of sweet things. It was delicious. The star, in my opinion, was the Cannoli nacho dessert. Sweet chips, sliced strawberries, chocolate shavings, sweet mascarpone, and mixed berry jam with what appeared to be thin strips of fresh mint. This was one of the most creative desserts I've ever had and it was amazing.\n\nThe nachos are excessively indulgent and, while not everything works, it seemed like it was always one small piece in a bigger whole that could be taken out with no one missing it. We will be back for sure.",
"Been looking forward to try this place and it did not disappoint. Tried the BBQ pork nachos which were very tasty! Will be back for more!",
"The Hawaiian BBQ nachos were great! The flavor profiles really came together and overall they were excellent. The portion size is average, but left me feeling content and not overly full. Definitely a place worth checking out!",
"Very high anticipation for this place to open since we live across the street. It didn't disappoint! We had the Ol' Standby/Toasted Ravioli/Buffalo Chicken and the Cannoli. All were delicious, especially that whipped ricotta cheese on the Toasted Ravs and the cannoli was also a fave. There's a window connecting the place to Narwhal's so you can order from Narwhal's and vice versa... Very smart. Staff was funny and personable, too. Great lunch. 5/5. Will come again!",
"WOW! I have never been a big nacho fan- but this has changed my opinion! Crab Rangoon Nachos rocked!!",
"My oldest wanted To try this place out for dinner. They just recently opened and I love nachos so we gave it a shot. First time I tried to call in an order but they weren't doing orders over the phone which was a bit disappointing- So we had to go in to place our order. The workers were polite and friendly and they took care of us but you could definitely tell they were learning on the job as they took their time and were meticulous about the order.\n\nMy daughter got the gyro nachos and they were pretty tasty as they definitely had the flavor of eating a Gyro. I got the side-by-side and did a Hawaiian barbecue nachos with chicken and the bánh mì nachos and subbed the chicken instead of the pork. The banh mi we're probably my favorite. I loved the pickled aspect of the nachos and when you got that bite that included the fresh herbs it was extremely tasty- would have enjoyed even more herbs with the as they brought some freshness to the dish. \nThe Hawaiian BBQ nachos were tasty and I really enjoyed the poblano queso of this the most. \n\nBut the real star was the cannoli nachos as they were extremely good and the orange zest mixed in with that perfect bite made it spectacular.\n\nI love that all the chips were crunchy and I would definitely come back again. If your looking for something different than the standard bar room nachos this is your place!"

"The dinner at Bar Poulet last night for friends and family opening was fabulous! \n\nWe enjoyed 3 apps: chicken and the egg, Onion soup gratin and deviled eggs. Then we had a bucket of chicken, bucket of mushrooms and tried every single sauce. The lavender honey and truffle veloute were our top two. \n\nWe really really loved every single dish and I can't wait to try a few more later this week.",
"Wonderful experience at the newly opened Bar Poulet. They promised us champagne and chicken and did not disappoint. \n\nDeviled eggs (black truffle, chervil)\nPoulet frit \nBlack Pepper Lavender Honey\nLes Fleurs du Mal (rose-infused vodka, elderflower, génépy, lemon)\nChampagne, Paul Laurent\n\nThe Poulet frit (fried chicken) was perfect. Hefty, crunchy, flavorful crust, tender inside. We chose the Black Pepper Lavender Honey and it was amazing. (They also offer fried mushrooms, fyi) \n\nIn the window front seat I requested on my reservation, with the window open, it was the equivalent of sitting out on the balcony, which is one of my favorite things. There was a full divider between us and the next table, so that we couldn't even hear their conversation, which gets huge bonus points from me.\n\nCute space all the way thru, including the immaculate bathrooms.\n\nNina was absolutely delightful.\n\nI should have brought home a chicken.",
"Fancy fried chicken spot? Sign us up! We have been looking forward to coming here and the wait was so worth it!! I believe you have to make reservations, but you'll see why! We went with the half fried chicken that includes one sauce! We picked the beer-naise (recommended by staff) and it was amazing!!! The chicken was juicy, and it had the perfect crisp to it! We also had the chicken sandwich and its definitely one of the best we've ever had! To top it off, the service was like no other! They attended to us frequently and made sure our experience was amazing and they went above and beyond!",
"As Innkeepers at nearby Cornerstone Bed and Breakfast it's our job to be local expert guides and find the hidden gems that make Philly special, and boy do we have a spot that makes us feel like a fox in the henhouse! \n\n Bar Poulet is where upscale dining meets guilty pleasure -- redefining your classic bucket of fried chicken with a glass of authentic French bubbly. Yeah, it's a thing. \n\nDeliciously crispy-yet-juicy pieces of white and dark meat pair with elevated-yet-classic sides and a menu of badass libations, including fabulous bubbly, a 100% French wine list, inspired cocktail menu and serious beer list.\n\nThe chicken is organic, antibiotic-free and certified humane raised and handled, and let me tell you, you won't be eating like a bird here! The chicken fingers with runny fried egg and beernaise sauce will literally change your life so don't pass on the chicken and the egg.\n\nFinding the best of Philly to recommend to our guests is one of the bests parts of our job and we can't wait to recommend this Fancy Chicken Joint to all of our guests, as well as visit again ourselves!",
"I can definitely recommend Bar Poulet. There isn't a single bad dish on the menu. There are some great staff working here. The atmosphere is so fun, and inviting. I will absolutely be returning. \n\nSome highlights include the deviled eggs, the blue cheese salad, and the fried mushrooms. It sounds funny since the centerpiece of the place is the chicken but TRUST ME. The deviled eggs are so truffle-y, the blue cheese salad is covered in blue cheese and it's everything I wanted. The mushrooms are so well coated, cooked, and seasoned. The pickled veggies that came with the fixed price were really good. I just couldn't eat anymore after everything else. \n\nThe sandwich was good! It felt like something I would order for lunch. The fried chicken dinner was great, and my partner destroyed it. Both desserts were really great. The chocolate mousse was a personal favorite and I don't even really love chocolate. \n\nThe sauces... Just get all the sauces. They're all amazing. But if you have to pick: the honey, the beer-naise, and the curry mayo are my top choices. Truffle veloute is close. \n\nJust go here already if you can get a reservation.",
"I just say wow! The deviled eggs are fantastic! We had them plus half chicken with the beer-naise sauce and the chicken sandwich. Such a nice atmosphere in keeping with the neighborhood. The chicken was crispy, moist and delicious. There are several sauce options. Loved the beer-naise which was a delicious version of bearnaise. Really fun cocktail menu along with good wine by the glass selections. I can't wait to go back. Highly recommend!",
"Chicken was crispy, flavorful and falling off the bone. Every single piece was like this! They give you a ton of chicken in the 1/2 order... should be shared with 2 ppl. Mashed potatoes and truffle gravy was smoothly and rich with flavor. The Manhattan was also perfect and they got it from their tap so I'm assuming it's pre-made. It did not disappoint. Would definitely recommend this place for HH, dinner, dates, and night out with friends. 5/5",
"They had me at Fried Chicken and Champagne! Let me just say... the service was wonderful! Staff was friendly and the food came out super fast. I had the Les Fleures(I think that's what it was called) draft cocktail which was good but not my favorite. We ordered the Brussels Sprouts (so good), cauliflower gratin (highly recommend), half chicken basket and chicken sandwich. We also did the dijonnaise and truffle sauces. The dijonnaise was perfect but the truffle sauce was just okay (it had just a slight hint of truffle). The chicken was to die and paired with a sparkling Rosé it was nothing short of heavenly. I would definitely go back here and bring others to show them the delights that are Bar Poulet! Oh, and the atmosphere is super chic!",
"For our first normal dining experience as COVID restrictions wind down, we decided to check out Bar Poulet. Champagne and fried chicken sounded like such a fun and indulgent combo, and the modern glam decor is social media ready, this just felt like the perfect place to get summer 2021 started. \n\nSometimes overly trendy restaurants are all style and no substance, but I'm happy to say that Bar Poulet delivers on all fronts. Since it was our first trip, we went with the Prix Fixe to get a bit of everything. For $35 each you are getting a ton of food. The prix fixe includes a pretty large salad, half a fried chicken, a side, a dip, and a dessert. We both had a decent amount of leftovers. \n\nThe fried chicken was perfectly crispy and tasty. Everything was pretty great overall, with a particularly notable mention being the Paradise Cake. On the dip menu, you'll likely notice the honey lavender dip as an odd standout, we did, so of course we got it. This dip was very interesting, I used it way more than the more standard dips we got, but I also can't say that I love it either, it's just a super unique taste that I'd say is worth a try. \n\nBar Poulet is just fun, the drinks are awesome, the food was great, the service was excellent. We'll for sure be back.",
"Really nice spot with quality food and service. I chose the $35 Prix Fixe that came with 1/2 chicken, one sauce, a side, and dessert. It was so much food and I wish I would've shared the chicken with my friend since we both took home leftovers. \n\nThe gratin cauliflower was 5 stars, amazingly prepared and you couldn't tell me I wasn't eating Mac and cheese. The chicken was nicely prepared and seasoned but the cauliflower honestly stole the show IMO. I chose the chocolate mousse for dessert and it was disappointing and tasted a bit off. As a chocoholic I couldn't even finish it. I'd love to go back again, share one order of chicken and spend time exploring more of the yummy side dishes."

"We finally had a chance to try this place. The only other location near us is on Clearwater Beach and this time of the year, it can be a nightmare even get on Clearwater Beach. The food and service was excellent. The One really good thing about this location is the fact that it's on the water and you can watch the pelicans feast.... But on a serious note, we were here to celebrate our 15 anniversary and everything was good.",
"Glad you are here! Great job on the upgrades and the menu! Glad to see what you have done with the space!",
"Excellent location on the water overlooking John's Pass. Seafood was very good. Everyone was friendly, good service, our server Tina was awesome! Will go again.",
"The cheesy grits are \"the bomb.com\" in my wife words. Run was a cool server. Suggest the fire rosted crb legs with the boom boom shrimp! Amazing!!! Amazing sunset",
"Our first time here, we discovered the restaurant had only been open a week. We couldn't tell by the service nor the food - it was great. Started with the peel and eat shrimp, salad with a mango pineapple dressing and crab legs. It was all delicious. Plus, the outdoor seating was beautiful with dolphins playing in the water. We visit this area every couple years and Crabby's will be added to our \"must do\" list.",
"New restaurant where Gators was. Really good food and lots of outdoor seating with good views of Johns Pass. Two bars; one is downstairs and one is upstairs on the outdoor deck. Friendly and fast servers - tasty cold beer. Lots of parking available. I recommend the coconut shrimp bites.",
"05/16/2021 walked in with a group of 5 at 8:30 PM Sunday they claimed they close at 8:30...after just opening? So what for some new local customers...I'll be going somewhere else..ps. Hostess wasn't very friendly either...",
"sad to see Gators not reopen but could not ask for a better replacement. Portia, our server, was great and the food was excellent. Cheesy grits are amazing!",
"Paula was great and music was great but after 1hr in the full sun still no FOoD omg we left to find a place to eat!",
"It's nice something is back in this spot, but they aren't ready yet. They said it would be a 40 minute wait. After an hour and 10 minutes they said there were still 11 people in front of us. An hour and 40 minutes after we arrived the table was ready. There were lots of empty tables but they said they were having problems with the kitchen staff. I totally get the staffing problems going on now and I don't hold that against the restaurant, but they need to be upfront and better with the wait times so people can decide if it is worth it and their time isn't wasted."

"We're loyal to the Westbank location so when we found out this location was open, we had to check it out! The building is completely renovated and it is beautiful! There's painted nola murals everywhere which makes for a really fun and unique atmosphere! Greeted by such a sweet host and our server Eddie was great!! Got traditional crawfish which was made to order.. yum! It really enhances the texture and flavor of the crawfish! We also got honey fire glazed wings (reminds us of crispy Korean fried chicken wings!!), fries, salt and pepper calamari and hot sausage poboy! Highly recommend all that! Cong and Tim checked on us and made sure we were taken care of! Great friendly guys! We will definitely be back!",
"Awesome new spot, staff very attentive, food was very good, variety of new tastes, incredible bread pudding, I don't usually get bread pudding anywhere, theirs is killa! \nCool drink menu.\nCan't wait to try the bbq style salmon\nAnd the wings",
"I live on the Westbank and is a fan of Big EZ Seafood on Lafayette Street. So when I found out that they are opening up another location in Kenner, I must try (even if it's a long 25 minutes drive).\n\nWalking up to the restaurant, it had a clean white look. I was like ehhh. When we got inside, it took a 180 degrees turn. Hand painted murals on every inch of the inside. It was beautifulllllll. The murals represented everything NOLA have to offer.\n\nThey added a variety of items to the menu. I got to try the charbroiled oysters which was really good. Oh em gee, the Saigon stupid hot chicken wings was beyond good. At first I told my friend I only want to take a bite to try. After that first bite, the whole basket was gone and he had to order another one. Oops lol. My all time favvvvvv from Big EZ on Layfayette is the Viet-Cajun crawfish so I had to order and try it here. It was still bombbbb.com. Crawfish was super fresh and sauce was super garlicky as well as buttery. Drooooooling as I'm recapping my experience lol. The bread pudding is the cherry on top. Bread pudding was cold, hot, soft and hard all in one bite. My goodness, I couldn't stop eating and probably gained 6 pounds. Oh well. \n\nThe service was awesome sauce. Cong and Tim were soooo friendly. They both came in and checked on my party multiple times to make sure that we were comfortable. They did this to all guests that were dining in. I appreciate that because it shows that they care. \n\nOverall, they did not disappoint and I will be back. Probably going to move closer so I can always come by lol. Give these guys a shot, you won't be regret ;)",
"I went here during the grand opening and was so happy they finally have a Metairie location!!\n\nI've been eating at the original Big EZ on Lafayette st in the westbank for awhile. The VietCajun crawfish is AMAZING. I literally go there every week for a few lbs. Their seafood menu is even bigger at this location and is DineIn which is a HUGE plus. The place is VERY spacious and has plenty of room for anyone who's afraid of the current pandemic. \n\nThe service here is great, and the crawfish taste the exact same as the Big EZ in the westbank.",
"Well the food was not bad but coming to the Big EZ with a group of people will be a problem due to there ability to only take 4 seprate orders at a time and they have no solution for this problem due to tha pos system they have. And managment has no way to over ride the system. Sad sad sad I wanted to like this place",
"Very welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend coming to to this place. We tried crawfish, oysters, crawfish etouffee, wings, and gumbo and everything was good. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back.",
"Usually don't do this, but the absolute WORST experience. I came in on a Wednesday afternoon, not busy at all. Sat down at the bar, waited a good 10 minutes to be greeted by anyone. The bartender finally came over and told me that he had a big drink order and would take care of me eventually.\nMeanwhile 3 or 4 other servers mingled by the kitchen window, or wandered around the restaurant. \nSomeone who seemed to be a manager came by the bar to ask another lady how she was doing and if she needed anything.. said nothing to me. So i sat and waited for 25 minutes with not even a WATER, then i walked out. It's unfortunate because I've heard great things about their seafood but i guess I'll never know. I'd rather drive to the Gretna location than waste anymore time here.",
"Big EZ crawfish is always good and spicy. I'm giving 4/5 stars because they forgot my garlic fries and when I received it, it was soggy and room temp.",
"LORDT. The food is amazing but what's better than the food is the service. Honestly. I'm speechless. We got the ez blend crawfish, fried shrimp on bun, a dozen raw oysters & some drinks. I can't say anything but how fantastic the food is. The best crawfish we have ever eaten. Hands down. Ohhh and don't forget the bread pudding. LORDDTTT",
"Came here with family and the owner thien and our waitress Destiny was very attentive and caring to us. They came checked up on us multiple times to make sure if we needed anything. The inside of the building is screaming \"WOW\" in a New Orleans way (5 thumbs up.)\nI ordered the mint to be lychee cocktail (good but too strong for me since I rarely drink.), the chargrilled oysters, honey glazed fire wings, and 2 3lb bag of big ez blend with spicy flavor and 1 3lb bag with traditional STUPID SPICY flavor. Overall, I would definitely come back for the stupid spicy flavors since it's STUPID SUPER SPICY GOOD! This is the perfect place to go to if you're craving bomb boiled seafood. The end."

"My friends and I got takeout from Monster Vegan for takeout dinner on a Friday night and LOVED it! We got a bunch of things and split them, so all in all I tried:\n\n- The Kong (two impossible beef patties, housemade cheddar cheese sauce, lettuce, pickles, tomato, red onion, and special sauce on a rustic roll with a side of fries)\n- The Fried Chicken Cutlet (seasoned soy fried chicken cutlet, french baguette, broccoli rabe, roasted red peppers, sharp parmesan, and horseradish aioli)\n- The Monstrosity (fried chicken cutlets, impossible sausage gravy, sauteed garlic spinach, and sharp parm on a french baguette)\n- Cheesesteak Eggrolls (two eggrolls with impossible beef, homemade sharp cheddar cheese sauce, peppers & onions)\n\nEverything was delicious, but my favorite was The Kong - it seemed like the impossible beef patties were charbroiled which made their flavor absolutely DELICIOUS.\n\nWe are already so excited to get takeout from Monster Vegan again soon! Definitely recommend checking them out for some seriously tasty vegan eats.",
"They have really great food and the customer service is excellent. We tried the Parmesan fries, bahn mi, and buffalo chicken egg rolls. Everything was great and the portions were generous. We will definitely be ordering from here very soon.",
"Another great vegan spot in philadelphia! You'll feel like your eating at Pat's! \n\nIn all seriousness, this is a great find for anyone who likes the taste of meat with the benefits of going vegan!",
"This is hands down the best vegan food in Philadelphia. The portions are more than generous, the food is always consistent, and the concept is so original! Go here now Philly... vegan or not, you will be satisfied!!!!",
"We had a great Lunch from Monster Vegan. We both got the Vegan Ban mi and a chocolate chip cookie. Ordering online was easy, and pickup (minus trying to find a parking spot) was seemless!",
"Oh wow. Great take out! Fast food styles with premium ingredients. I ordered the bah mi with chicken cutlets and it was divine. Fresh bread with awesome chikin breaded cutlets, fresh cilantro, pickled veggies, cucumber, and an aioli cilantro Mayo. I can't wait to order from them again. Fast food properly made with no short cus and they do not skimp on portions. It was delicious. So much better then hip city vedge.",
"Absolutely excellent vegan comfort food and incredible customer service. \nYelp wants me to write more, but why? \n5 star food and service. That's all you need. \nThis establishment is vegan, local and delicious. Just go.",
"There cheese steak roll is so good and the chicken pattie sandwich. So good. Can't wait to try the other food!!",
"The spicy rigatoni was good but the roasted beet salad was not fresh. The kale was soft and wilted..I shared it with another nurse at the hospital and we were very disappointed . It's hard to disappoint hungry Nurses.....",
"This place is great! Just slyly snuck in while Valanni has been on hiatus and has been rocking the vegan food. FYI it is take out only. I feel like their mission is to show that vegan food can compete in the arena of comfort food and they are doing an awesome job. \nSo far I've had the chicken sandwich \"the monstrosity\" with with the sausage gravy and greens, the kong (think cheeseburger), the truffle fries and the egg rolls(Buffalo chicken and cheesesteak). They also have pasta which I'd like to try. \nFirst off, the condiments alone are pretty excellent. The horseradish aoli and the \"blue cheese dressing\" were tasty! I loved the kong - if you want a cheeseburger and fries, it really hits the spot. They know which vegan meat to use where. For example, they use the impossible patty which I think tastes a little better than the beyond, but they use the beyond Italian sausage for other dishes which is really good. ( I recommend the beyond sausage for your own cooking purposes, it is that that good). The fries are awesome, and not too truffley, which I think is a good thing. \nThe stuff I was less crazy about, in the case the chef wanted to know my humble opinion, is that when it comes to vegan cheese, a little goes a long way. When I make vegan pizza, I put less cheese than I would with normal cheese. It comes across a little too unctuous and a little unpleasant, which I only really found with the egg rolls. I think if they pulled back on the vegan cheese, it would still be plenty indulgent without going overboard, imho. \nIf you are or AREN'T vegan, TRY this place!!! You'll love it."

"Met a friend at Mezcaleria Las Chupacabras for a quick early dinner on a Thursday evening. They did a number on the old PF Chang's space. Very bright and festive. I ordered a small guacamole and the server brought the big appetizer portion instead of the small. It did not taste like it was made in house so that was a disappointment. We didn't really eat it. When they bring out the chips they give you a traditional red salsa along with a creamy cilantro ranch. Not the biggest cilantro fan but it had a nice flavor. For dinner I ordered the Tamales Fritos (House made fried pork tamales with mole salsa and covered in queso fresco rayado & sour cream. Served with rice and black beans) with no sour cream. Of course I received sour cream. The server did notice and offered to take it back but it was inoffensive enough so I kept it. Who knew you could fry a tamale but I guess you can fry anything! It gave the masa a nice crispy texture. The mole had a good flavor. When they first set my plate down I thought there was more mole in the bowl. Turned out to be the black beans. They were way too soupy. The rice had no flavor at all. My dinner date ordered an assortment of tacos and was happy. There is plenty of seating inside, at the bar, and on the patio. This place will undoubtedly become an after work bar location!\n\n*They installed an overhead door that opened up to the patio. Even on a mild summer day (low 80s) it was warm!",
"So good! I loved the atmosphere and especially the food. It's everything you want in an STL Mexican spot under one roof. Large selection of Mezcal and tequila. I got the fried tamales and they were awesome.",
"Great ambiance, fun and attentive staff and amazing food (A+ in presentation and taste). The food was so good I forgot to take a photo until I was already finished! Had the tacos de birria. Highly suggest.",
"Unfortunately this was not a good experience. We never got a server, a food runner tried to help our table but we saw him maybe twice the entire evening. He brought margaritas right away and then he disappeared. After being seated for 20 minutes and never seeing a server we had to go to the host stand to order our food. Once we got the food it was pretty sub-par. Not a lot of flavor, definitely not worth what they charge for it. We ordered the carne asada and the birria tacos. The carne asada was a fatty, greasy, and had no flavor. And the birria taco tortillas tasted store-bought and artificial. The meat was also very low quality. We had also ordered tequila shots when we ordered our meals and we never got those. The staff seemed nice, but with the non-existence of service and how disappointing the food was, we would not go back and not recommend.",
"Finally made it to try this place. Really, really good food. The ranch served with the chips has jalapeño and agave in it. Ordered a side of mole to put in the tacos and it didn't disappoint. Tried the taco special - pollo asado, carne asada, and shrimp.",
"Finally got to check out this new restaurant dedicated to tequila's smoky cousin mezcal! Loved the atmosphere, drinks and cuisine. Highly recommend stopping in for a quick drink at their vibrant bar or for date night on their outdoor patio. Located at the Blvd in Brentwood across from the St. Louis Galleria it's sure to draw a crowd. When you go, ask for Roksana and Anita. Tell them I sent you and you'll be well taken care of. Cheers!",
"Tableside guacamole was fun. They use a small cart to prepare the quacamole next to our table and we can tell them what to add to it. It was $15 and served in a large stone bowl. The baja fish tacos were very good with fresh avocado on them and served in a blue corn soft shell. The chips are a thicker, corn kind and taste very good. They come with two sides, salsa and a Mexican ranch dressing. Our waitress did a great job and was very friendly. We will be coming back here when in the area again.",
"Terrible service, took us 10 minutes to just get water. We then both ordered Margaritas, husband got the premium Cadillac margarita and I got the happy hour Mango margarita. Those took even longer to get, we just sat and waited. Sadly everyone around us was getting good service and they all were getting drinks and shots quickly, but for some reason we were forgotten. At one point, we got so irritated with the lack of service, we almost left. Our annoyance was apparently noticeable to some of the other servers and then came to try to help the situation. Our waitress then suddenly showed up with our drinks. We were also never asked about the rim of our glasses by our server, but one of the others that came by did ask. Sadly our drinks showed up before he could rectify the situation. When I mentioned I wanted salt, the waitress said she would fix it but I didn't want to wait 20 more minutes for a drink so I just went without. Service improved slightly after the drink situation, but we were never asked if we wanted more chips or dipping sauces.\n\nFood overall was pretty good. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and my husband got a chicken burrito. He asked for jalapeños to be added to his burrito but they did not add those. Margaritas were pretty good too. My initial intention when wanting to go to this restaurant was to get table side guacamole, but due to the terrible service, we did not get it or try it. They could have prob made good money on us and they missed out due to being so slow at the beginning. \n\nDecor was cute and colorful and the initial wait to get seated was not too bad.\n\nWould def come back but hopeful I would get a better server so we have a better experience.",
"My new favorite place! I was at the nail salon across the street and the Mexican music and beautiful bright decor drew me in! Food is delicious. I can't wait to return!!!",
"I was so, so excited to try this place. Mezcal is my #1 spirit of choice, and I'm always on the hunt for an amazing Mexican restaurant. They don't take reservations (yet), but the place is so big that you probably won't have to wait for a table. We opted for a spot outside where they had fans going. The entire restaurant is so beautiful. Incredibly colorful with bright, fun decor. If you sit inside, there are really cool booths that are a great spot for a family dinner or a get-together with friends.\n\nService during our visit was wonderful, friendly, and engaging. We both ordered the Mezcalita to drink, and were a little bummed we couldn't taste any Mezcal. If you want that intense, smoky Mezcal taste, swap the house mezcal with the Bozal Coyote. Problem solved.\n\nGet the birria tacos. Just do it. They were absolutely amazing. The broth for dipping was incredibly flavorful, and the meat was cooked perfectly. We also really liked the cheese enchiladas (with a side of queso right on the plate!)\n\nWe'll bring our kids here because I think they'll be in awe of the colors and decor. I'm so glad this place moved into The Boulevard and I hope they do well!"

"I stopped by and tried this spot out. I am sad to report that I found nothing particularly notable about the place. \n\nThough they claim to be known for their smash burgers with caramelized onions, I heard the people at the table next to me commenting that they weren't impressed. I tried the fried chicken burger. I found the crust on the chicken to be hard, salty, and generally unpleasant. I removed the breading and ate the moist but entirely bland chicken inside. \n\nThe fries are shoestring-style. Mine were very salty and otherwise unappealing. I frankly found little reason to try this spot again. There are already too many mediocre greasy burger places in Reno",
"I'm so glad this place opened in Reno. I get cravings for their chicken sandwich it is so good!! The burger was fabulous with additional bacon and avocado. Love the fries! \nCongratulations guys for all your hard work. We will definitely be back!!",
"This review was made during the first week they were open, so things may change.\nThey dont have their beer yet because they dont have their license to serve alcohol. But their burgers are really good. I'd say they are on par with Burger Me or even better. They give a hefty amount of delicious fries. And the people who work here are super nice and friendly. A burger and fries wont cost you more than like $12. Worth the expense. Only criticism I could think of is that their seating is only a couple of bar stools around the wall. You have nothing to do except eat and drink and stare at the wall. They have one TV for sports. When they have beer to drink, bring a friend or else you will be starting at a wall for the majority of your time. \n\nTldr: good food, good drink, good people, good price, you stare at a wall while you eat.",
"I was really happy to hear Inclined Burgers opened in Reno, and near my house!\n\nJust like the Incline Village location, the burgers are excellent. Everything is fresh, hot, and fantastic.\n\nThe people that work there (Pointing at you, Kevin, Brooke, and Brian (GM)) are awesome, great customer service.\n\nI'll be back soon!",
"Best new burger place in Reno, and so happy to have them in the northwest part of town. Small menu which I like, focus on what they do really well. Excellent burgers and fries. Double Inclined and Inclined fries, I'll be craving this again. Reno location has a couple beers on tap, but more on the way as they get rolling.",
"It's...OK. Pleasant enough, places to sit outside and the burgers were average. Employees were pleasant and efficient. I'm sure we'll go back occasionally. \nWhy only OK? Hamburgers (all we've tried) are on the skimpy side and quite bland. Presumably condiments are available, but we ate outdoors and didn't see any there. And the fries rate about a D+. They were flaccid, floppy and soggy.",
"What an enjoyable experience we had at Inclined Burger. I had the inclined burger and added bacon, so good! I found the burger to be well sized for the price & full of flavor. My husband loved the chicken sandwich, said the pickles with the crispy crust were exactly what he was looking for. We got the inclined fries which were a huge portion and quite tasty, but also just a little too much flavor for us. I'd definitely get them again if we had a big group of people with us. \n\nWe've been needing a new place in the northwest for a long time. I am excited and think it's a great location. We ate in their outdoor patio, i hope eventually maybe they'll have more seating inside but for now the outdoor space was fun (just hot ). I am cheering this place on and can't wait to visit again soon!",
"My wife heard about this place from the Reno Foodies group on Facebook and said she wanted to try it. Over the long holiday weekend we decided to check it out. We are always up for a good burger!\n\nWe arrived about 4pm, the day after the Fourth of July holiday which was Sunday. We were immediately greeted by someone who asked if we had ever been there before, to which we replied, no. He proceeded to explain the menu to us. No one else was waiting to order at the time but others did come in as he continued to explain. He focused on us until our order was placed.\n\nHe shared with us a few other details and we thought he was either management or owner, either way he was very helpful and friendly.\nWe also learned they have had an original location in Incline Village for about 2 1/2 years and this was their second location. He commented they were set up as separate LLC's to protect each other. They have applied for their liquor license for this location as well.\n\nThe menu is very basic which makes it simple and everything sounds delicious. My wife decided to get the Fried Chick Inclined sandwich which consists of a chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, raw onion, pickles and honey mustard and mayaioli. She opted for no dressing and added bacon and regular fries I chose the Double Inclined burger which is two 1/4 pound burgers with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, grilled onion and sauce. I also opted for no sauce and added bacon and garlic fries.\n\nWe decided to sit outside because they have limited counter seating inside. Our order arrived in a timely manner and looked delicious. My wife really enjoyed the chicken sandwich and would recommend it highly! My burger was very tasty as well and messy, extra napkins are recommended. I also really enjoyed the garlic fries.\n\nWe will absolutely be back and are happy they are also now in Reno!!",
"Inclined burgers and brews Is an absolutely amazing burger joint, but it is not a one trick pony. They have a great fried/grilled chicken sandwich. They have great salads, and they have great fries. I've had the pleasure of going to their Tahoe location for over two years, and now they're even closer to home. Christmas came early this year! \nBest vibes I've ever gotten from a food place!",
"I've been going to the Tahoe location for two years which I love so much, so i decided to give the reno location a try. \n\nAs for the food it was delicious 10/10 just like the Tahoe location. I never change my order I always get the inclined burger with avocado and bacon with the garlic fries. However this time I got ranch to pair with my fries and the ranch was so good. \n\nAs for the atmosphere it's obviously not the same as the Tahoe location simply because you can't beat Tahoe. But this place has a good atmosphere to. I would just suggest adding some art on the walls (which I'm sure they're going to add considering this place just opened) \n\nThe people at this location were very nice and helpful!\n\n10/10"
