    We had a 5:30 reservation, finally seated at 5:45. Waited until 6 to get water & place our orders. 6:15 our waitress came back to our table saying she couldn’t read her own writing and needed to go over what she couldn’t read!! The live music was so incredibly loud, we couldn’t even talk to each other. It honestly gave me the worst headache. The sad part is the music was good but it was so loud. We finally got our dinners around 6:35, the food was good but definitely not worth the wait when we were dining with 2 newborn babies and a 1-1/2 year old. We probably won’t be back.

    Super cute location. Food was great, but unfortunately service was very poor. Restaurant wasn’t even half full and bar was backed up along with kitchen.

    Decided day of to meet friends here on a busy Saturday so made reservations stating we needed a dog friendly table outside. Normally we’d get put in the worst patio area with our dog. We were pleasantly surprised to receive the best table in a corner under a fan in the shade with privacy for our nervous pup. The manager on duty stopped by to thank us for making a reservation and offered advice when asked about carry out after our meal. Our server was professional and friendly. The food was amazing for everyone at our table. They even had live music. Could not have been more pleased with our experience and I’ve already raved about it to friends who live in the area. We will definitely return on our next trip to Sarasota! Many thanks for making our meal a special experience.
