   Waited over an hour for our food and then we finally got it, it was luke warm. Ordered a mimosa and the glass wasn't even half way full. It was eeehhh. Probably wont go back anytime soon. Location good though. The only plus.

   This restaurant needs help…food is subpar at best…second time there…it’s like they just don’t care about the quality of their food. They are surrounded by high quality restaurants…I’m not sure how they stay in business.

   We were seeing a show at Amalie Arena and decided to stop by here for a bite to eat. I guess I’m really old because you had to order everything off of an app. The service was good, but the food was not. the cheese on the pizza and the pizza itself was very, very oily, and the chicken wings were burnt.

   Hi Niki, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're disappointed to hear that the pizza and wings missed the mark - we will be sharing your concerns with the kitchen team. Also, while we do utilize online ordering via our QR code, our staff is still available and happy to assist. We hope that you will give us another shot.

   The restaurant has changed from a wait service to an automated “ order on your phone” approach”. The wait staff brings your food . It’s like Uber eats in a restaurant, only Uber is easier. I don’t like it….. even though the food is very good. I won’t be back.

   I've enjoyed Small Giant in the past but some changes have made it likely this was my last visit. Prior visits we had menus and table service, all of which is gone. Only way to order is using a QR code to find the menu on your phone, which made it difficult to see what all was on the menu. The first order delivered to our table was not ours, and in fact made its way to two other locations before finding the right table. When our order did come, we had to request napkins and silver. The food delivery personnel were pleasant but the lack of table service was noticeable. I'm sure it's less expensive for them but for the price point you'd expect more. Disappointed in this change and won't be back.

   Went for brunch. Food was tasty. Menu is a little limited but not a drawback. Quiet on a Sunday morning/midday. I personally liked the ordering system with a QR code. Staff checked on us regularly. Only unusual aspect was they serve coffee (good) but had no cream or milk. One of the staff found what was probably another staff member’s flavored creamer, which was kind. Situation was odd since they are a bar and kitchen, but had no other option.

   Hi Jackie! Thank you for the review and for all of your feedback. We're glad to hear that our QR code ordering experience was a positive one for you and that you enjoyed your food. Your concerns with coffee additions is very valid and something that we will be addressing for the future. We look forward to hosting you again in the future!

   The only time we saw any wait staff was after we ordered ourselves, via QR code on the table, then they brought us food and water. Way too expensive and way too distant. Little to no interaction with any employees. Odd experience.

    The food was very tasty but the service was a bit slow. They also want you to order off a QR code which is not very convenient with a big group of people. Would maybe go back but would not rush back.
