Such a special occasion celebrating my graduation from Nursing School! Our server Rachel made the evening so special bringing us a champagne toast and also a special graduation desert. I really enjoyed the ambiance of the evening and the steak was one of the best steaks I've ever had- a perfect medium rare! I couldn't have asked for a better celebratory dinner and we really enjoyed ourselves!

My steak cane out wrong n they gave it to me for free service was very slow and the quality was not worth the money. Won't be back. Id recommend some place else.

With the overall cost of the evening at $$$$, the lack of a wine list in this type of establishment was disappointing. Food was good but not great. Service was good and I appreciate the individual who helped us. I've been to a couple of other Shula's in the past and they were great. This left me with a sense that maybe we should not come back for the amount we spent.

Kevin provided excellent service with a smile. Chef checked on whether we enjoyed our meal which was terrific. Shows chef has confidence and cares about his product. First experience at this Shula's but we will come again. I had ribeye special and my wife enjoyed scallops. Room was as you would expect of a high end restaurant. Too many others in town are like cafeteria seating- no table cloths - noisy. I recommend this Shula's.

I can not say enough wonderful things about our experience at Shula's. Thank you, thank you to Ben who makes us feel so very special every time we dine there :) Our waitress Rachel was courteous, professional and a lovely person. The little touches like the Happy Anniversary frame on our table and the hand written note just make us feel so important!! And the food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The food was absolutely delicious. My husband and I shared the butcher board which was sooo good and I highly recommend it. The chef sent out one of their new dishes, the roasted bone marrow, so flavorful and decadent. We each had a steak with those huge baked potatoes. I don't quite understand why the steaks at Shula's are so much more tender and flavorful than any of the other steak places in Gainesville, so if you like steak, Shula's has got to be at the top of your list. For dessert, we had the seven later chocolate cake, my husband is a chocoholic and I had the creme brulee which made me soooo happy. If you are looking for a place for a special occasion or just because you deserve to be treated well, Shula's is our #1 pick.

Our experience was fantastic. We started with a wedge salad split between the two of us because of our age. The blue cheese dressing and bacon jam made the salad extraordinary we ordered surf and turf and the steak and scallops were cooked to perfection. Our waitress Rachael Ann was attentive but not overly so. Made sure we had everything we needed.she went out of her way to make sure we had the most perfect anniversary dinner in 24 years. It was absolutely the best we have ever had. We will certainly be back, many thanks to Rachael Ann and compliments to the Chef for an extraordinary dinner. Including the magnificent crème brûlée. The strawberries were actually sweet with out sugar and the blueberries were just as sweet. The caramelized sugar crust was exquisite. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about our experience at Shula's Gainesville.

Roberta

Outstanding quality meats/seafood and the freshest produce prepared simply to let their flavor be the star of the dish or accompanied by lovely sauces if you like extra layers of flavor.

Sarah

The food was great but I was disappointed in service. Anytime I needed anything I had to flag down server and wait. The restaurant has beautiful decor and a nice atmosphere

We arrived about 10 mins early and were seated with no problems. The wait staff was excellent and the food amazing. We ordered a lot and there was nothing left on the table.

Our first visit. Food was fabulous! Quiet Tuesday evening. Loved it!! Lisa was a great waitress!!!

Lisette

Our server was very nice as was the host and manager. The beautiful decor and high prices did not match the food quality. They serve a bread basket, love bread. When I went to break it, it was hard, smelled and tasted stale. Server was great, apologized and brought us another one. Same! A little less stale but still hard and tasted awful. Lobster bisque was so thick and chunky, not from lobster but what seemed to be an unblended soup of cream chunks. Scallops had no flavor. Filet mignon did have a nice flavor and the inside was cooked a little less than I'd like, prefer med/rare but not seasoned enough and very unimpressed by that. For the cost of the meal I except better. Server again was very nice.
