“We were out on a walk and O Bricks was recommended to us for a great dinner spot and it did NOT disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing, quick, fresh and delicious. Our service from Manny and Monique was even better!! Highly recommend, and we will definitely come back next time we are in the area.”
“we are having a 'staycation' of sorts to visit Anna Maria Island Beach, and I have to stay, after walking to 5(!) restaurants and being turned away, this amazing restaurant allowed me and my family of 5 to stay. Not only did they welcome us, Doug, our server, laughed with my kiddos, treated us like we were royalty and made our little staycation dinner- well...amazing. This is the kind of place that makes a city it resides in..PROUD. The food was nothing short of amazing, I am celiac and struggle on vacations, knowing where to eat. Thankful to God, that this chef is gluten intolerant - so I could eat just about everything on the menu. Do not be discouraged..they might not have a kids menu, but that did not stop Chateau 13 from editing any dish they were interested in to make them smile. I thought they were going to make me order another side of 'frites' to go!”
“Very enjoyable experience! Loved the ambience, the food was extraordinary, and our server Rachel was wonderful. Get the bread pudding for dessert!!”
“Mari was a delightful server. She made sure that our order was perfect, paying special attention to check that the steak was cooked to our liking. Her bright and friendly personality made us feel welcome and cared for. We appreciate the traditional table service.”

“In reference to our dinner last evening April 18, 2026. The seating for our table of 7, was very tight seating. The Mrs. and I had the Bolognese, hers was gluten free, both of us had a terrible night sleeping with many bathroom issues. Additionally, I was surprise to see on top of the $200. cash tip I provided, there was an additional tip of over $100.00 added to the check. The waitress that was extremely nice, did not make me aware that there was a tip already added to the check, resulting in a tip of over $300. which in my opinion is a little overboard.”
“Extraordinary!!! Never had better … even in Germany! The schnitzel was terrific, spätzle was authentic, red cabbage was amazing. Had the potato pancake too and they were extremely yummy! Wholeheartedly recommend!”

“On 08-03-2025 I ate at the Sonny's restaurant at 631 67th St Cir E in Bradenton, FL. This is a family-style BBQ restaurant with a very comfortable and welcoming ambiance. I arrived for dinner and was promptly seated. I had their Big Deal Turkey on a bun with fries, a side order of baked beans, and an unsweet tea. My food arrived in a timely manner and was cooked properly. It came exactly as I ordered it and was very tasty. A variety of sauces were available, and I selected the Sweet sauce. My server during my visit was Danielle. She was very efficient, kept my tea glass filled, and responded to any and all requests I had. I have had Danielle for a server several times before, and I consistently receive superior service from her. She is always friendly and courteous and takes a genuine interest in her customers, making sure that they have a positive dining experience. She is a credit and an asset to the business. I recommend this restaurant and will be returning there again to eat.”

“The food here is authentic! It is the closest I can get to the food in VN. I had their Banh Uot, Rice with short ribs, banh mi with grilled pork, pho combination and pho ga.
Looking forward to trying their sushi, Thai, and the rest of their extensive menu.
The service here is also very fast!”
“I had a health concern happen while I was entertaining myself and the locals with some guitar music, good conversation and lots of pool games. I got dehydrated and the paranoia set in hard. Luckily these folks are good people and all my belongings were kept, safely. When I got well and was able to retrieve them. I was well cared for and never made to feel unwelcome though I’m afraid I might have made a fool of myself. Maybe again some day without the dehydration? I hope so!”
“I made reservations for my friend's birthday and 2 other guests were joining us. Unfortunately the reservation went to another Tiramisu in another city. Therefore, no reservations showed when our party arrived. The host was icey, lacked empathy or understanding. He was extremely demeaning and haughty. Finally sat us at a table next to the kitchen which was appreciated. Our waiter was stellar and made everything feel friendly again. The food was outstanding......every course. Im a local for 48 years but the host made me feel like an idiot. Never smiled (not to anyone else arriving later). Maybe not the best first impression to offer your patrons.”
“Fabulous experience!! Great service and amazing food! Highly recommend!!!”

“Last night we enjoyed dinner and came to see Jason Ricci and the Bad Kind band. Outstanding! Our food was creative and enjoyable and the scene was electric. Dave has done such an amazing job transforming a small backyard into a soulful, comforting courtyard. The band exceeded expectations too!”

“Absolutely love these burgers. My daughter and I went there 3/26/25 This was the first time I had a “smashed” burger and I figured it would be dry. Yes I was skeptical to say the least. I was in for a big surprise!!! Great burgers, It’s a good truck but the service was great. Today will be the 2nd time we will be going back… Did i mention great burgers? I had the Oklahoma burger, and I’m getting it again.”
“Anna Maria Oyster Bar - Ellenton, FL After spending the day at the Florida State Fair in Tampa, my fiancé and I decided to stop by Anna Maria Oyster Bar in Ellenton—and we’re so glad we did! We ordered fried oysters, French fries, and cheese grits, and everything was absolutely delicious. The oysters were fried to perfection, crispy on the outside yet tender and flavorful inside. The cheese grits were just the way I like them—nice and thick—and the fries were a great complement to the meal. Even better, our food arrived quickly and fresh. Our waitress, Lilly, was fantastic, providing friendly and attentive service. We also appreciated how the rest of the staff greeted us warmly as we walked through the restaurant. It’s little details like that that make a place feel extra welcoming. The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept, including the bathrooms, which is always a big plus. Anna Maria Oyster Bar now has four locations, and after this experience, I’d definitely visit again. If you’re in the Ellenton area and craving fresh seafood with great service, this spot is a must-try!”

“Had a great coffee at 7 Brew! It was delicious, and I loved the huge selection of sugar-free flavors, milk alternatives, and other drink options.
The whole setup is really cool, and pulling up around sunset made the vibe even better. Such a fun concept and atmosphere. Service was exceptional too—friendly, quick, and welcoming. Definitely a great spot!”
“Love coming here for lunch. Sandwiches are very tasty. The coffee is always perfect, better than a Starbucks for a much better price. Great place to stop by for breakfast or lunch. Always have a great lunch here away from the office. Highly recommend if you’re in downtown Bradenton”
“Our experience was nothing short of exceptional! Matthew, our server, was great — he helped us put together a custom flatbread and made a point of flagging our gluten allergy to the chef so we didn’t have to stress about it. That flatbread ended up being the star of the night, loaded with flavor start to finish. For entrees, we both went with the filet mignon, and it came out cooked exactly right. We’ll definitely be back for dinner soon!”
“Most amazing German food that I’ve ever had. Servers were very friendly & knowledgeable about the dishes that the chef creates. Add in authentic German beer and this place is a must visit. Definitely worth the drive if you are anywhere nearby. I could eat here every meal as there are many options and everything tastes wonderful. Sehr gutt und wundebar!”

“Ayissa provided us with top tier service! Kind, friendly and such an amazing soul!!! Tyrell The Chef… his food was the best we have ever had at this location!!!! He knows his stuff in the kitchen!!! GIVE THEM NOTHING A RAISE, They deserve it!!! What a great team they are, don’t loose them!!!”
“Jennifer was amazing! We order a shareables the night before but instead of 40 nuggets, we only got 20, leaving a lot of people hungry.
I came in the next afternoon and briefly explained the situation. She immediately recognized the mistake. Since she is such a hard working and diverse at doing anything and everything any worker can do, she happened to be in the kitchen and caught the problem, but I was in a rush, so she wasn't able to correct it immediately. But once I came in today, she was on it, gave 110% quality customer service, made no excuses and aimed to please the mishap.
Hands down, without question, it's easy to see why she qualifies as a manager - she should be a store manager, if not, a regional manager.
I'm speaking on behalf of what I've seen, and myself having worked my way up from a cook to a store manager at a competing fast food place with similar roles and placement. I hope JENNIFER I valued and cherished... She can easily turn a 1star place into a 5star, if given a little wiggle room and a path she can trek for the betterment of the franchise, it's reputation as well as her own development. I could easily see her being poached by a competitor - she can lead any establishment to ultimate success with time, room for Herself to determine the kinks and make BIG MOVES for future success. She is a DIAMOND in the rough of pretentious actors who pretend to want to be successful managers.

“I've been to all of the McDonalds locations in bradenton and this one consistently has fresh food. The fries are always piping hot and crispy and this time I got the 2 cheeseburger meal and I have never had a fresher bun from a fast food restaurant...like ever. Definitely recommend eating at this location if you are in the area and you're hungry.”
“Our server was great, however the chick that came flying out from the back to scream at us didn't make us feel very welcomed. We almost left but am glad we stayed as the rest of the night was great.
The food was just so so but then we had an appetizer. The rest of the menu may be fine.”
“Absolutely our favorite restaurant! The owners, staff all make you feel at home. The service, food, wine, music and atmosphere is perfect. Scarpino’s is definitely are GO To Spot, whether by ourselves or hosting company. Be sure to check it out! Ciao, Ciao!”

“From Roger’s energetic greeting, to Tara’s enthusiastic attention to detail and service, it was a great experience! This place is immaculate (thank Anthony who scrubs booths and tables like an operating room) and happy. Great food and generous portions which equals a good value. The pancakes are a meal by themselves! We eat out every day and this is a wonderful place for breakfast/lunch. Check it out!”
“Thai Bistro was our first stop on vacation and wow were we surprised! Not only was the food amazing, the customer service and hospitality were incredible! We told the owner that we had never been here before and she explained her favorite recipes with enthusiasm and incredible detail. The owner is passionate about making the food / each plate/ delicious and fresh. Impressive hearing about where she finds the very best ingredients and we loved hearing about the legacy of some of these recipes. When she brought out our food, she also brought a plate of spices, all homemade. Highly recommend! (Pictured below: pineapple fried rice in a grilled pineapple)”

“I have been here twice now & both times have ordered the same. Order is Pad Woon Sen & Green Curry - both with chicken, medium heat, to-go, no bell pepper or celery.
Pro:
Followed special instructions perfectly!
Green curry is awesome 🤩 so good, definitely recommend.
Each meal plated 1/2 of each entree & got 3 complete meals out of this for $34.
Pad Woon Sen, (1st time), very flavorful with a lot of fresh, crunchy veggies & plenty of noodles.
Ready very quickly.
Con:
Pad Woon Sen, (2nd time), very bland with an abundance of veggies but mostly onions & carrots, not a lot of noodles ☹ & very, very dry.
They put curry in the crab rangoon so we did not order any. 😿”
“We have always liked coming to Cracker Barrell. Food is always what you expect, good and comforting! Our server Casey went above and beyond today. She was a delight! She was very attentive without being overbearing. She made nice small talk without holding us up or dragging anything out.”

“My son took me to Little To Jo for my birthday. It was one of the most pleasant meals out i have had in a long time. The food was exceptional and the plates were over flowing. The wait staff were courteous, smiling and trying to please. The decor was calm and you could talk to your dinner companions. I had a wonderful conversation with the table next to us. I will definitely go there again. It is one of the best restaurants in my area.”

“Attardi's is the best pizza place in Sarasota, and I'm Italian and am picky. And, for you West Virginia's who miss your state's famous "pepperoni rolls" - Attardi's has them, and they're as good or better than any you can get in the Mountaineer state. George the owner/chef has amazing attention to detail, cooks everything perfectly with the finest ingredients. He's a perfectionist (you can tell by watching him). This place is a gem. Just Fyi.”
“My fiancé and I had dinner here earlier this evening and it was sooo good! We had the basil fried rice with scallops for the entree and vegetable egg rolls for the appetizer. We will definitely be back! Delicious food and great atmosphere!”
“We have been coming to the island for 5 years and have missed this little Gem, until tonight! Outstanding service, waitress was awesome , Manager’s tonight on point and the crab boils off the chart good! We will be back ! And often! Oklahoma ladies !”

“Hands down the BEST pies around!!! Mermaid Pies was recommended to us by some friends while visiting Bradenton… fast forward a few years later (and many slices later) we had Shawna cater pies for our Wedding. It was the highlight of the night, every single guest raved about how fantastic the pies were. I HIGHLY recommend the key lime coconut cream - you will not be disappointed! Shawna the owner is also the sweetest, we love supporting her and her business and can’t wait to visit again soon!”
“Best Thai in Bradenton! Fast and friendly service and the most relaxing and well decorated atmosphere. Food was fantastic, portions were amazing. Highly recommend, I’ll 100% be back when I visit the area next year❤️”
“I normally don’t leave reviews for good or bad service and food BUT this place deserves a review for literally the best garlic knots, pinwheels, rolls, anything that is made out of their fresh dough. I had zero expectations and they have exceeded them millions of times with great service and amazing food. Unfortunately I don’t live close by but maybe that is a good thing. Hats off to this amazing kept secret.”
“Came in for dinner a while back for their special Osso Bucco ,this was a limited special,but the special was already sold out. Ordered their chicken alfredo. My wife and I have been back several times. Best keep secret in town. You will be more than pleased.”
“Pizza was fantastic! Serves was amazing and friendly! Highly recommend! We will be back!”
“What a wonderful restaurant! I’ve been coming here for years and have never once been disappointed. Every visit feels like walking into a friend’s home—warm, welcoming, and full of AMAZING FOOD. Everything is always fresh and absolutely DELICIOUS! 👏👏 The authentic Italian dishes are incredible, and I’m so thankful that they always accommodate my dietary restrictions. It truly makes me feel genuinely cared for—they already know my needs and always have a plan in place. It means SO MUCH to feel that kind of attention and thoughtfulness. Thank you for making every experience so special. I truly LOVE this place! 💜💜”

“My wife and I came for dinner. The New Age Flatbread was AWESOME. Crust was amazing.. Shrimp Cocktail Great! and Osso Bucco was to die for! The meat fell off the bone and melted in you mouth. Kirby was our server and was just terrific.. She was friendly and very attentive.”
“Been going there for years ! Never had a bad meal and the music talent is great ! Whoever is on the grill cooking those steaks gets it right every time! Keep up the good work ! You guys rock!”

“My son and dil asked me where I wanted to eat for a belated Mother's Day dinner(my choice}. I wanted to have hibachi since I haven't had it for a long time. After reviewing what was somewhat close by and reviews, I chose Izumi. So happy I did. The food was wonderful as well as the staff, drinks, and entertainment. Told them first time there and will be back!”
“I’m so happy to have found Post! Went for the first time tonight to celebrate me and my husbands anniversary and we had a wonderful experience! When we were seated we were welcomed with a complimentary glass of champagne. They made our night feel extra special and the food was delicious! To top if off, they even gave us a complimentary slice of mouthwatering cheesecake! Thank you, Post! We can’t wait to come back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“My total dinning experience was amazing. The only thing they should change is the music, it's an Italian Reztsurant it should be Italian music”
“This is a fantastic bar. This review will serve as an honest, short review that if you're looking at the reviews, you should just come here. Btw ditra was the bartender.”
“Juan was our waiter and he was great! The food was hot, served timely; he anticipated refills; we didn't have to track him down to ask for something. It was a totally wonderful dining experience and we will ask for him again!”
“We had an amazing brunch yesterday! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was rustic and inviting. Our waitress, Beth, was absolutely wonderful—so attentive and cheerful, she really made our experience special! Now, let’s talk about the food! I ordered the fried green tomatoes BLT, and it was fantastic! The combination was delightfully crunchy and packed with flavor. My friends tried a variety of dishes: the BBQ pork baked potato was a hit, truly hearty and satisfying. The shrimp basket was crispy and perfectly cooked, while the BBQ sliders were a delightful burst of flavor in every bite. One of our friends had the fried grouper, which looked delicious and was perfectly seasoned. Oh, and we can’t forget about the Bloody Marys! They were the perfect complement to our meal, refreshing and robust with just the right kick! All in all, this brunch experience was a blast! Great food, awesome service, and a cozy vibe. I can’t wait to go back! 🍽️🥂✨ #BrunchGoals #RoadKillIYKYK #AmazingEats #ThankYouBeth”
“Wow - Ortygia has moved forward to a fun and interactive cooking classes, specialty parties, wine dinners and more . Without the restaurant anymore there is so much happening - for low this page and make a reservation- you won’t be sorry. I have been 3 times for series 1,2,and 3 cooking classes - enjoying wonderful filling vegetarian dinners that everyone will love - and you take the recipes home. Wine flows freely, delicious food and great conversation abounds and then you eat - enjoying the Italian scents and savoring the goodness of fresh ingredients. A definite go to on my list and looking forward to making many delicious meals.”
“We alas finally got the chance to visit this "brilliant" place on 7.24.2024!!! We sat outsyde since indeed we brought our companion- Hamish, our Border Collie. We were immediately accomodated by the hostess with a fan pointed out way (oppresively hot!) and water for Hamish and a view of what was to come! Only the beginnings of great service and outstanding food: Camille P. our hostess came out immediately with smiles, suggestions and patience. We ordered our drinks (starting with 2-Conch Republic Key Lime Wheat beers) and our brilliant appetizer all brought with no rush nor bad tyming! We then ordered our appetizer which was both unique and most tasty- The Caprese Guac! Two more drinks of choice- the Honey Thyme Smoke Olde Fasioned & a Citrus Cannon- again spot on and magical! For our main my wife and I split the Bee Sting Pizza and the Crispy Chicken Cobb Salad both enough for a split of 4 people with a taste and presentation like none other! Our relaxing and "take a breath" meal/day was finished off with a Pinapple Upside Down Cake (had to try it) to go! Needless to go on and on but we couldn't have been more impressed. We have lived in this area for 2+ years and treat ourselves weekly but never has the treat been so outstanding what with Camille P's humor, efficiency and shared knowledge but unique and abundant food we will be equally back for tyme and again... cheers to ownership (always reflected in the professionalism and great atmosphere of staff, thus planning and providing a place second to none!

“I gotta say, Alicia at Paddywagon is awesome! She’s super friendly and makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. Even when the place is packed, she never lets you wait too long for a drink. Alicia knows her stuff when it comes to making drinks. She’s quick, and her cocktails are always spot on. Plus, she’s really good at remembering what you like if you’re a regular. She’s always got a smile on her face and is up for a chat, which makes hanging out at Paddywagon even better. The bar’s always clean and she handles everything like a pro, even when things get a little crazy. If you’re looking for a good time and great service, Alicia’s your girl. Go check her out at Paddywagon – you won’t be disappointed!”
“We've had Angie as our bartender a few times now, and we absolutely love her! Always come back in hopes of seeing her. Love the vibes of this establishment and cannot wait to be served by her more!”
“Delicious food friendly attentive service ! Big menu many mouth watering choices!”
“Love the amazing friendly atmosphere. Great food, great music and especially our bartender Trever. He always makes sure you have exactly what you need and what you want. Pay attention to detail.!”
“We had a fantastic experience at Compass Bar & Chill -- thanks to our wonderful server, Cindy. She was incredibly friendly and hospitable, making us feel right at home from the moment we sat down at the pool area. Cindy promptly took our drink orders and brought them with a smile, then followed up to take our food order. Everything—from the delicious fish tacos to the perfectly cooked quesadillas—was spot on. She checked in to make sure everything was to our liking, and her attentive service truly stood out. Five stars all the way!”
“I absolutely love their Penne Al Vodka with Chicken, Greek salad, and of course pizza! Fast friendly service. We order at least once a week! A must try in Bayshore”
“Our service was awesome and our server was especially good. The main reason I wasn't too happy about the food was bc I ordered medium and it was really undercooked. It was also pretty salty but not enough to send it back - just had to make sure I tempered a bite with the bread to offset the intensity of the seasoning. Next time, I'll just request light seasoning 😄”
“100% recomendado si tienen algo que celebrar ve y busca o ordena tu cake pregunta por Betzi se la recomiendo a ojos cerrados ella se encargara que su cake sea lo mejor,ella mega amable,super servicial,así que no dejes de pasar para q ordene el suyo,Gracias Betsi❤️🫶🏽❤️”
“Always outstanding with the best products available. Service friendly in their beautiful surroundings.”
“Great boba tea passion fruit was the best hand downs and strawberry one as well ❤️”
“The overall service use to be amazing at this Olive Garden. We have come here several times over the years and this is the worst front staff I’ve ever experienced. I checked in and was told it would be a 15 minute wait and told them that I had people coming but instead of seating us after 25 minutes passed I came up to ask the pregnant hostess if they were waiting for my party or something because we’ve been waiting and she was like oh yeah yeah we are without so much as looking at me or apologizing for the wait. There were several of them up there that were just laughing and joking around unprofessionally and the pregnant hostess was eating up there talking with the other ladies at the podium while they ignored us. She disappeared completely for several minutes and after 30 minutes I asked a girl who showed up if we were going to be seated because my party was waiting. She said she would check because she just got there. She went to find the pregnant hostess and told her we were waiting 30 minutes and my daughter overheard her denying it. I’m just not used to that at any restaurant. If you tell me 15 minutes and it’s not busy in there then we have better be seated whether we are waiting for people to arrive or not. It put me in such a terrible mood that I wanted to leave but thankfully our waiter came right away and was amazing. He was very attentive and kind and I felt he deserved a good tip. What made me write this review was when we left there were a gaggle of women at the front with the pregnant hostess and we all noticed that they just stared at us and didn’t say the usual thank you have a good night. No one bothered to politely open the door like they have always done for us in the past. You just knew that they we’re talking bad about you. If this is what this Olive Garden restaurant is turning into then I have to stop coming. I don’t know what’s up with those women but this is their place of work not a place to gossip and bullshit about their life or talk shit about their paying customers who are there to be treated with some measure of respect and kindness when they are out with their family for dinner. I hope a manager sees this review and addresses this issue of plain rudeness. We are also not white and so obviously white people were being treated better and seated immediately. By the way, our pregnant hostess was black but for some reason thinks it’s ok to be rude to us. If this ever happens to us again, a complaint will definitely be filed to your corporate management or the BBB. I will not tolerate this behavior in front of my family.”
“We had not only a lovely dinner, but our server Lauren was a delight. We have been here a million times, and the last time we were here, our server was a snotty b***** I hope she is no longer here. Again, Lauren is fantastic! And a real sweetheart.”
“Muy linda la atención, muy amables, la comida deliciosa, los drinks exelente, servicio rápido, lugar limpio, nos encantó, gracias vamos a volver”
“The wings place is in Chili's, but it's great wings for an awesome price!! The Apple BBQ sauce is surprisingly Apple-y, but in the best way possible. The garlic parmesan is a good garlic parm wing and not greasy. And the Honey Chipotle is sort of a sweet glaze with just a hint of the Chipotle.The Apple BBQ is our favorite, but the ones we've tried are really good! Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for wings!”
“Decent food. Had a quesadilla. Camecwith fries. But nothing had a price that's the only issue I had. Had two quesadillas and my son had a burrito it was three of us total with three drinks it was 45.00”
“A very pleasant surprise that we stumbled upon. We decided to drive back into IMG at the 53rd Street entrance. We found the Legacy hotel. That’s where we found the cozy Icon grill. It happened to be happy hour an appetizers were half off along with drink specials. The food was excellent and we have shared this special place with many friends. The atmosphere was a bit loud since it sits almost in the hotel lobby. The outside is quiet and beautiful, sitting on a small lagoon.”
“Wonderful and kind people serving us with very delicious food 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼”
“The manager KATE is AMAZING! She is the best hands on, team orientated, hospitality centered manager I have ever seen. We love chili’s and coming to this location was a real treat all because of her. <3 The food and service was excellent as always.”
“good food. Tiffany. our waitress was great. She made a good meal excellent.”
“Alcohol, bartenders and servers were very attentive and did a great job. Unfortunately the food truck was not available for us that afternoon, so although the staff tried to call a food order into Wilders, it didn't turn out well. The wait on the food was so much and much more than their staff told us and most of the party left before it came. My suggestion is just go there to drink. If you are looking for food and the food truck isn't available then go somewhere else.”
“Just returned from a great short trip to Bradenton Fl. Had a chance to visit here briefly. Wasn't sure what to expect due to some negative reviews. As a veteran server myself, I was very impressed with the food quality and service as well as the view. Started out with Cajun shrimp. Yum! Onto Pasta Primavera. Cooked perfectly. I always say all diners should have to do this job double shift just for one day. I totally recommend this restaurant while in the area.”
“The people working there are awesome! The food is great! Will definitely stop there again next time we go to Costco.”
“I am fairly new to DW & have had 5 experiences with the Lake House. All of them top-notch. From what I have heard this resturant was troubled in the past (I cannot speak to this). The staff, manager, food, drinks & service have all been quite good. It is a relaxing establishment, relaxing atmosphere so best advice... RELAX. Enjoy, don't be rushed, sit back & chill.”
“This place is chill, the food is amazing and the staff are so great. My wife and I were so well taken care of!!!! The atmosphere is great, music was awesome too!!!!”
“We’ve been eating here for years and not sure what’s going on the 1 star reviews but did take note before dining here tonight. The staff were friendly and the food amazing as always. There are many Asians eating here as well, like almost 1/2 of the diners!”

“We have always liked coming to Cracker Barrell. Food is always what you expect, good and comforting! Our server Casey went above and beyond today. She was a delight! She was very attentive without being overbearing. She made nice small talk without holding us up or dragging anything out.”
“My son and dil asked me where I wanted to eat for a belated Mother's Day dinner(my choice}. I wanted to have hibachi since I haven't had it for a long time. After reviewing what was somewhat close by and reviews, I chose Izumi. So happy I did. The food was wonderful as well as the staff, drinks, and entertainment. Told them first time there and will be back!”
“I made reservations for my friend's birthday and 2 other guests were joining us. Unfortunately the reservation went to another Tiramisu in another city. Therefore, no reservations showed when our party arrived. The host was icey, lacked empathy or understanding. He was extremely demeaning and haughty. Finally sat us at a table next to the kitchen which was appreciated. Our waiter was stellar and made everything feel friendly again. The food was outstanding......every course. Im a local for 48 years but the host made me feel like an idiot. Never smiled (not to anyone else arriving later). Maybe not the best first impression to offer your patrons.”
“We had a fantastic experience at Compass Bar & Chill -- thanks to our wonderful server, Cindy. She was incredibly friendly and hospitable, making us feel right at home from the moment we sat down at the pool area. Cindy promptly took our drink orders and brought them with a smile, then followed up to take our food order. Everything—from the delicious fish tacos to the perfectly cooked quesadillas—was spot on. She checked in to make sure everything was to our liking, and her attentive service truly stood out. Five stars all the way!”
“I use our local store on Cortez here in Bradenton Florida. Atleast once a week we get one of full boxes, the kids love these sandwiches. They never fail! I have them catered, they are here on time everytime, and quality is GREAT! I recommend them! They have a great selection and they wont let you down”
“We go there both Tue and Wed happy hours and have the specials on the menu.. The food is normally good and inexpensive but this last Wed the wings were over cooked to a point you couldn'eat them. I complained to the bartender who was new (no uniform) who didn't seem interested. But that being said, Ed's is a great place although crowded at times.”
“In reference to our dinner last evening April 18, 2026. The seating for our table of 7, was very tight seating. The Mrs. and I had the Bolognese, hers was gluten free, both of us had a terrible night sleeping with many bathroom issues. Additionally, I was surprise to see on top of the $200. cash tip I provided, there was an additional tip of over $100.00 added to the check. The waitress that was extremely nice, did not make me aware that there was a tip already added to the check, resulting in a tip of over $300. which in my opinion is a little overboard.”

“On 08-03-2025 I ate at the Sonny's restaurant at 631 67th St Cir E in Bradenton, FL. This is a family-style BBQ restaurant with a very comfortable and welcoming ambiance. I arrived for dinner and was promptly seated. I had their Big Deal Turkey on a bun with fries, a side order of baked beans, and an unsweet tea. My food arrived in a timely manner and was cooked properly. It came exactly as I ordered it and was very tasty. A variety of sauces were available, and I selected the Sweet sauce. My server during my visit was Danielle. She was very efficient, kept my tea glass filled, and responded to any and all requests I had. I have had Danielle for a server several times before, and I consistently receive superior service from her. She is always friendly and courteous and takes a genuine interest in her customers, making sure that they have a positive dining experience. She is a credit and an asset to the business. I recommend this restaurant and will be returning there again to eat.”
“If your day has escaped you, have no fear. Don’t tremble. Don’t panic. Applebee’s is here.
The late-night service is… hold on… grab the phone… they care.
Wow. Amazing. Service from time-in to time-out. Cold drinks, hot food, and somebody still pretending to give a damn after 10 p.m. God bless America.”
“Was there tonight when my family and I witnessed an incident in the parking lot. Management was quick to rush in as well and even gave a discount on our bill bc we jumped up to assist when we saw what happened. We’ve always had great food and service there and tonight was no exception. Well done!”
“Our first time here with our shy rescue dog and we were welcomed warmly. Our waitress brought over large bowl of ice water for him. The eggs Benedict and shrimp with grits dishes were presented nicely and were so delicious 😋. Will be coming back to this sweet neighborhood gem. Staff so friendly. Nice size portions. Wine was delicious too!”
“We come here often at lunchtime to watch football, get wings and a cold beer! Our son loves their ckn tenders! Jess, Caitlyn and Chuck are the best! They put on our game as soon as they see us and very attentive to our table! We love the service and go weekly!”

“Amazing food from amazing people! I had the chicken tacos and they were flavorful and filling, with a generous helping of tender shredded chicken. My husband had the brisket, which came with mac & cheese, baked beans, and soft rolls. My husband said it melted in his mouth! The Village Patio is a cute little building with a laid-back atmosphere. We enjoyed eating our meal on the deck. Patrick and Shelley are warm and friendly, with decades of experience in the local restaurant and bar scene. Go check them out!”
“Decided to leave this review specifically because of the service. The man who took our order was so kind. His name was Brendan. He was extremely thoughtful throughout our order process and when giving us our food. He explained all the sauces really well and made sure we felt comfortable. His favorite sauce is the saucy Ranchero.”
“I recently visited this restaurant and ordered some flautas with extra crema and queso. They were absolutely delicious! Every bite was crispy and flavorful. My husband and I also ordered tacos de carne asada, which transported us back to our hometown in Matamoros, Tamaulipas.
In Matamoros, we make our tacos with cheese and avocado, so if you prefer a different combination, let the staff know. They’ll be happy to accommodate your preferences. The owner was incredibly friendly and attentive to our needs, ensuring that we had a completely satisfying experience. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the weather was great.
The only downside is that the restaurant is quite hidden, and cars drive by very fast, so you might miss it. However, it’s definitely worth the U-turn! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the best tacos they’ve ever had.”
