My first experience here was good as I walked down the empty streets downtown having no idea why the place felt so eerie. Food was excellent. Service was nice. Second visit- got to really learn all why these blocks are empty. The people were so rude and odd people in uniforms just watched us from all over the streets.This restaurant is for all those who have lymes disease. Their doctor will send you here to eat. I will not support Scientology

Unfortunately I did not have much time to spend there as I was passing through town and the owner is a longtime friend of mine. But I will be back in a few weeks and I'll spend more time with her catching up on the past and trying out some of her fare.

great food, reasonable prices. my husband and i eat AIP/paleo and this is the best restaurant we have found in pinellas county that can accommodate our dietary needs and doesn’t taste extremely mid ? we eat here at least once a week and never get tired of it. the menu also updates fairly frequently.thank you so much to staff & owner for everything you do!

The service is wonderful, the young server yaya greeted me with a beautiful smile and she was also very helpful and respectful with helping me order. Also very great food!! I loved my experience here, would definitely recommend.

Apparently, they closed the restaurant. Now you simply order takeout. This would’ve been a great place for lunch but I think that my expectations were a little high for dinner. I probably didn’t read the menu correctly and ordered the noodle bowl which was cold rice noodles and raw cabbage, and some other vegetable. My expectation was that it was going to be a warm bowl. The sauce that came with it was pretty good but again I was a little disappointed that my meal was prepared cold. My wife ordered the burger which was pretty good. As we waited for our take-out order, we ate our vegan dessert which were delicious.Vegetarian options: They seemed to have a limited selection of Vegan/Vegetarian options. They do have some delicious vegan desserts.Dietary restrictions: Everything in the cafe is gluten free.

I just wanted to write this for anyone who is offered a management position here, or any position for that matter. The owner and Mark will tell you whatever you want to hear so you accept the job. But none of it ever happens. Also, beware of Mark if you’re an attractive female because he will make you feel extremely uncomfortable! The owner will act like she cares so much and will tell you how much she appreciates you. But she will use you till she gets what she wants then fire you like your nothing. Iv seen it happen more than once. BEWARE!

Entirely Gluten Free & Delicious! Had a Caesar salad & chicken, bacon club sandwich. Everything was super fresh.While food was great, took off 1 star for the absurd amount of single use plastic that everything was served in: mayo, catsup, straws to large containers for salad & sandwich. GF consciousness is awesome, but there are plenty eco conscious alternatives to plastic that could be used.There was a big chicken breast In sandwich but the bun was much smaller so it was difficult & messy to eat. Slicing the chicken would have helped.Big variety of seltzers & hot or cold teas.Went on a Saturday, expecting to get a hot entree but the hot bar was closed. Most likely because it was January & very quiet in downtown Clearwater due to chilly weather? It’s entirely take out. There is a table outside to eat.

Completely gluten free which is excellent for coeliacs. The food also tastes much better than it looks, it was absolutely delicious. Couple of negatives, didn't realise how long ot would take to get food (nearly 40 mins). Great because it meant it was fresh but they could have let us know. Other thing was the girl who served us, got quite frustrated when we ordered as we didn't have a US phone number and we were asking a few questions. I'm not used to fully GF places and it is usually overwhelming for me to order food but she wasn't too friendly. Make sure you pre order and pick up.

IF YOU WANT HIGH QUALITY FOOD THIS IS A MUST STOP. There are very few options in Clearwater that are organic, grass fed, free range, and actual quality ingredients.Fluoride free water!!!!! If you know, you know and if you don't, its probably because you have fluoride brain.Food was delicious both times. We got the grass fed burger for dinner one night and came back for lunch on our last day. Lunch is served as a hot bar, multiple options but we had the bbq chicken with sweet potatoes and meatball with sweet potato noodles both were delicious.

It’s no longer a sit down restaurant. They moved down the street. The inside is cute and cottage style. They have takeaway salads and a small hot bar.The people are very very nice however the food was way overpriced and mediocre.I paid $27 for a plastic container full of sweet and sour pork, cauliflower rice and broccoli, a spindrift and 1” cookie.I used to love this place but I won’t be returning due to their quality and value for price.
What an amazing place. Loved the swedish waitress. The beef and broccoli soup tasted like Mom's Sunday roast. The salmon burger was cooked to perfection.Can't wait to come back.Parking: Park at the library in public parkingDietary restrictions: Pies and cakes are made with coconut sugar

They burned my salmon and I haven’t eaten in restaurant with my kids for years and was too much anticipation and turned out that was the most horrifying experience in restaurant service I’ve had even when we were dinning out.Burgers were blackened couldn’t be touched and so carcinogenic for adults let along for kidsSweet potatoes over darkened as well and salmon dry overcooked and blackened. There were some leaves on the side for comfort which we couldn’t care for hard to digest anyways. I had higher hopes looking at the pictures and the reviews not sure if I went to the same site down that they all did.

It had pretty decent food and great gluten free options. I LOVED the soup I got. However the meatloaf and burger meat didn’t taste very good.

Kara Lynn's Kitchen is so yummy and truly good for you !! If you are a foody and health conscious person then this is where you should go. How about Tuesday Burger Day!! Chorizo seasoned grass-fed beef topped with bacon, pickled red onions and avocado cilantro mayo with choice of side. Centrally located in Clearwater just steps to the water downtown you can dine inside or outside. There are many options to choice from on her menu. Don't forget to try Heidi's German Chocolate Raspberry hazelnut cake!
