Food was decent. Unfortunately the service was horrible. Not sure if I'll give cody's a second chance to one of the locations near me or not. There are several other restaurants in this category that are far better...

I came in for an early dinner last night with my sister and we sat in the bar. I had a 9 ounce filet and she got the blackened salmon. Everything was so delicious and the salad and rolls are definitely good reasons to stop by. Lynda was our waitress and she was so kind and knowledgeable. She provided stellar service. We will definitely be asking for her again next time soon.

Food was good as usual, waitress was new but nice. She made a mistake when running our separate checks and put them on the same card. We figured it out but she said she probably would be fired that night. Something had happened between her and the manager Mark. I went and tried to speak with him and he was rude, dismissive and blamed her for it all. He did not want to talk with me and no apologies were given.

Our most recent visit was an outlier. I don't know if there's been a change of management or what is going on.

When we went to our table we were informed they were out of peanuts ( not really a big deal), but then when the server came to take our orders we were informed they were out of chicken, so 2 of us had to change what we planned to order. Why not tell us when we were seated? Then we were informed the chicken is being dropped off menu. The salmon was OK, but they didn't know if it was farmed or wild-caught. I hope they get their game back up to speed, as we go there often when we just want something casual and quick.

I've been going to Cody's for a long time but this last trip killed it. The salad was very little and very little salad dressing if any. No eggs. It just was off. Then I ordered the chopped steak that I always order but I ordered the full not the special. I was given the special and charge the full amount plus the steak was cooked very raw when I asked for medium well it was mostly raw, small and raw. The best part of this was the bread and the baked potato but the steak No, the salad definitely not and our waitress seemed like she was rushing us. I have never had this experience at Cody's but I will not go back again.

Update I sent the email per the owner said to do in order to take care of this a few days ago and I never heard from the person so I guess they are too busy to talk to me regarding the poor experience so I am moving on and I stand by my review.

Was one of my favorite stops. Went there on a Thursday night at 4:30, they open at 3:00. Ordered prime rib, they were out, manager said they sold out everybody ordered it. Ok on to the next item, I ordered ribeye and baked sweet potato , guess what they were out of sweet potatoes . How do you run out of potatoes? Another person in our party ordered shrimp, guess what they were out. Requested the manager, she did come over but offered every excuse of why they were out of items. She then said she was giving us a card for a free appetizer, guess what the card expired the next day. Waitress was great and had no issues with her, but the managers are the worst.i for one will not be back too many other places to eat.

Angel was our server and she was fantastic!!

Bar tender was very rude.and fajitas was horrible..never go back again

Worst chicken pot pie ever. Totally disgusting, no vegetables and seems like it was filled with leftover chicken gravy and it came out cold. The service was great and waitress very attentive. Definitely won't visit again anytime soon

I went with my mom for that birthday. Excellent experience. Antonio and Kailee offer incredible attention, always friendly and attentive to every detail. The food is delicious and the atmosphere feels cozy. Without a doubt, a place that makes you want to return. Thank you for your attention Antonio and Kailee

Bradenton store used to be great.
Now under new management sucs big time. Used to be packed, now old customers avoid this place.
We were disappointed three times in a row. Will never be back. Bad management screws with bill and hopes you do not notice. Food quality no longer good. Steak as tough as shoe leather.
