Lunch options include a delicious soup and salad combo, featuring flavorful black bean soup and the highly regarded 1905 salad.
Recent reviews highlight the restaurant’s beautiful setting and delicious, generous portions. Visitors have praised the friendly service, especially servers like Jorge, who made their evening better. However, some guests have experienced issues with the service, particularly with a long blond-haired server whose attitude was frustrating. There was an incident where an extra charge of 92.02 was made to a customer’s card, and attempts to address it with management were unsuccessful, which marred the experience. Despite occasional lapses, many find the restaurant to be a place known for its high standards, though some mention that the atmosphere can be lively and noisy at times. Overall, Columbia Restaurant Sand Key continues to be recognized for its fantastic food and friendly environment, despite occasional service challenges.
