Do notttt come here on Sunday nights. Food took almost an hour to come out and the order was WRONG. Server rarely came to our table and we had to flag him down multiple times. If you’re going to offer food and drinks, have the service to match it! Ridiculous.

Recently went there for a date with my boyfriend, great food and great drinks. Our waiter was Samuel, who was SUPER friendly, helpful, and attentive and probably one of the best waiters I've ever had. Overall, great food and service and would definitely go again.

Ordered one drink the waitress gave us two. Refused to take the second drink back. When asked the manager to remove it, they refused to. Terrible customer service

When I moved to Gainesville almost 4 years ago i absolutely loved this place, it was my favorite restaurant/bar in town that I would frequent often. Since being away for about a year and finally coming back into town I of course planned to come back. The last two times I have been here with friends the service was terrible. The first time, it took over an hour to get our food, the food all came at different times so we never got to actually eat together, the sides never came before the main entrees that we ended up ordering them to go after finishing our main course. If not mistaken, almost at the two hour mark, we decided to take the food home. The second time I came with only one friend for chicken bucket and wine night and after the food came we were never checked on again by our server when I needed to request condiments and other items off the menu, that I ended up asking the table next to me if I could borrow their ketchup, and i didn’t even bother putting in the other orders because it was taking too long to be checked on. I really love this place and want to keep giving it a chance but I’m sad the last two times did not live up to the expectations I was used to.

Had a wonderful night, the service was great. Giselle took care of us the whole night, she was super attentive and such a pleasure. One of the best service experiences I’ve had in Gainesville, highly recommend.

Crybaby's is one of the best bars downtown in terms of value and vibes combined. Not too pretentious, and still high quality cocktails.

My biggest issue is that there are basically 0 vegetarian options on the menu aside from the beyond burger, and a couple of the sides. I feel like Gainesville is pretty dense with vegetarians compared to the rest of Florida, so this has always surprised me. They had falafel on the menu for a little bit, and it was really good. I would be happy if they even just added al a carte falafels with dipping sauce. For me, as someone who doesn't eat meat, and doesn't like beyond burgers because they taste like meat, the only options are the fries or tater tots. Don't get me wrong, I've eaten many of them over the years. But I yearn for a more substantial veggie option from this establishment. Please! Most plant based eaters I know are not really interested in beyond burgers. Falafel sides, fried vegetables, pasta salad, fried tofu, etc.

Food was awesome I had a Cry baby burger cooked perfectly to medium rare, and a Shrimp appetizer with a really nice sauce and crispy outer fry.

Staff are friendly and have great fashion sense, lots of cool unique attire.

Place gets real busy, I like that environment, but the interior doesn't have much to absorb sound so if you are prone to overstimulation you might prefer to eat outdoors, there are a handful of small tables.

Only thing that wasn't good is my appetizer got lost in the shuffle, took about 20 minutes to get it after we had all eaten our main entrees and the other apps. Server was super polite about it, and I wasnt their fault, still that was a bit frustrating. Otherwise service is good, and we got all our other food within 15 minutes of ordering so can't really complain.

A Good business, visit if you're in town.
