“I had the pleasure of being served by Kayleigh (KayKay) at Ruby Tuesday, and she was absolutely wonderful! Her service was outstanding, she was attentive, patient, and thorough in every detail. Kayleigh’s kind personality made the entire dining experience enjoyable, and her professionalism truly stood out. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about her guests. Kayleigh deserves recognition for her hard work and dedication. I’d even say she’s more than deserving of a promotion!“

“Fresh delicious food, low prices. If you find the bowls too pricey, you can go on the app and order a la carte items, sides are $2.75-4.75 each and Protein a la carte main options start at $5.75 mushrooms $5.80-7.50 for the chicken ,up to $9 for their grass fed steak . Salmon at $10.25
Lots of vegan and vegetarian options the mushrooms are amazing and most sides are gluten free and dairy free the Mac and cheese sadly is not.
But it's better than Panera their cheddar Mac is $10.49 now! compared to naked farmer at just $4.75! it's my hubby's new favorite treat he's been craving their mac n cheese since he first tried it.“

“Party of 4 and everything we ordered was great! As others have stated, the potato salad is hard to beat! Mike, our server was attentive, had a great sense of humor and went out of his way to see that we were satisfied.
Deep pours on the boubon too!!! :^)
As I live in Cincinnati, I will be sure to return to Guppy's with every visit to see family!
Happy 1 year anniversary!!!“

“The experience and food have always been top notch. I try to go monthly, I would go more but I drive from the other end of Bradenton to make sure I get my Thai fix. I have tried the soups and appetizers! All wonderful and the employees are welcoming.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Great Fresh Food & I Love It!“

“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 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.“

“We stopped in for the first time this afternoon. They provided the best pizza I remember. The crust is just right, proper crisp, chewy, flavorful. The sauce is a masterpiece, the best I've had since I moved to the area 30 some years ago. Toppings are spot on. I highly recommend this place as The Goto place for a good pie!“

“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.“

“Amazing Chicago style food will keep coming back!“

“From the moment I stepped into Blaze Pizza, it felt like I had wandered into a little world of magic—warm, welcoming, and full of joy. The sparkle of the experience truly came from Tiffany, who felt like a fairy godmother of customer service. With her bright smile, kindness, and cheerful energy, she instantly made the place feel special.

As my pizza was crafted, it felt less like an order and more like a magical creation coming to life. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made, but it was Tiffany’s enchanting attitude that made the experience unforgettable. She turned an ordinary visit into something straight out of a Disney dream.

If you’re looking for more than just great pizza—if you want a little magic with your meal—Blaze Pizza is the place to go, especially when Tiffany is there to make your day shine. ✨🍕“

“Las mejores pizzas que he comido“

“I had a great experience on 41 recently. The 2 older gentlemen at the register were helpful AND funny as hell. The lady server delivered the sandwich/salad tray quickly to my dine-in table.

I forgot a work notebook at my table and left CFA. When I returned to CFA, my work notebook on top of the clean table.

Kudos!“

“I love how Marianne assisted me today and made my bowl so well, she took the time to make sure it was the way I liked it. I love this Cava I go here once a week with my daughter and Marianne showed me how to get points too which is great. Everyone should go to this Cava!!!“

“Brunch! The best! Great service, food excellent. Definitely will be back and it’s local for us...“

“Neat health food spot offering smoothies, salads, wraps, sandwiches, & smoothie bowls. Perfect for a post workout meal or light refreshing snack. I tried their Tequesta Dragon bowl with a very delicious dragonfruit base for the smoothie portion & tons of fresh berries on top with granola blended in between. The portions were pretty reasonable and the preparation was quick. In and out service is always the best. The staff was very friendly and had some great recommendations.“

“We actually visited the Nick and Moe's that houses Quizno's, and picked up some wings, tenders, and chicken sandwiches. As always, they were friendly, with delicious food at an excellent value! Nick and Moe's is my favorite place to stop when I'm in town!“

“We have ordered delivery numerous times. The food is extraordinarily good. Last time was night before Thanksgiving as we had guests and didn’t want to tramp around finding somewhere with room for 6 of us immediately. EVERYONE raved about their meals. We ordered lamb pitas, lamb wraps, greek chicken skewer plate, gyro Greek salads. Everything was delicious. And it came fast. Can’t say how pleased we were with everything.“

“Brand new! Great pizza and staff!“
