I'm not quite sure how this place is still open...They must have family and friends leaving good reviews!!! I was told by a... friend to steer clear of this place bc of the staff and owners, ( she had an issue with the owner) but the food looked reallygood so we decided to give it a try anyways. I regret this 100%. Not only was the food less than mediocre, it was overpriced forthe quality and time spent getting to us. My bfs food had to be reheated. I understand as well as anyone whose worked in thefood industry things can get worse before they get better some nights. But there was absolutly no excuse for us to be treatedthe way we were treated by the owner. We tried to talk to her but she really couldn't be bothered. Like she had better things todo than make sure her guest were happy. I will not be coming back here, and I will definitly not recommend it to anyone. Goodthing there's so many other good resturants around here! Word of advice, listen to your friends ;) Read more
Was excited for the salmon to come with citrus buerre blanc. I feel like I was likely just seved half an ounce of butter. This... is my first review since completing fundamentals at the Culinary Institute of America, so sorry if it's nitpicky. Everythingelse was great except for spots I found on my napkin. Read more
Being generous at one star. We mostly had good experiences but the last 2 visits were disappointing. Food arrived way to late... and lukewarm. Saw it sitting in the kitchen window under the heat lamps. Didn’t stay. Brunch today wasn’t any better.Service was good; busy so we were patient (45 minutes) until people that arrived after us received their food. Server saidtickets got mixed up. Again being patient waited a bit; no trip to the kitchen by the server to check on our food. Nothing! Leftand won’t go back again. Too bad really liked it there. Needs some serious management help. I used to work in kitchens andrealize it’s not easy, but it should run smoothly. Staff needs to care about the guest experience. Maybe the owner should workalongside the staff in and out of the kitchen to fix what needs fixing. Read more
Love the atmosphere but it took an hour before we received our salads. Chopped salad had no taste and had to ask for the blue... cheese crumbles. Chicken was supposed to be stuffed with mushrooms and there wasn't a mushroom to be seen and not stuffed atall. The steak.had. a heavy sauce....not good The Mac and cheese was good but only had one small piece of shrimp. The onionsoup was pretty good. As most restaurants these days, they were under staffed . ...and it was prom night and very crowded. Read more
My sister and I just finished our meal here. The service was fantastic, the food delicious. Short ribs and salmon were perfect!... Our 2 servers worked so hard to take care of the outside courtyard dining. So impressed. Thank you Ismael and Mike you guysmade our dining experience the best! We will be back! Read more
Fabulous dinner! Alexis was a very attentive server and even adjusted the bill when one item wasn’t to my taste. My husband... had the short ribs and I had the delicious calamari appetizer (like a calamari version of Bang-Bang Shrimp). We went early andby the time we left at 8:00 every table was full. It’s on the list for next time! In downtown Ft Myers about 10 minutes offof I75. Don’t miss it! Read more
We were very satisfied with this place. The atmosphere is great and quiet. Service was very good and food was delicious. They... have a very good wine selection, and we loved their chessboard. Definitely an amazing experience and I recommend this place Read more
