“If I could give 10 stars, I would. We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael's Grill cater our wedding, and they truly exceeded every expectation. Located in the heart of Carrollwood next to Tampa Wine Room, where we held our reception, they were the perfect fit for our celebration. Joe and his team did an exceptional job from start to finish. The food was outstanding, beautifully prepared, and served with such care. Our guests could not stop talking about it and kept going back for more. Several people told us they plan to come back and dine there, which says everything. We are so grateful for the incredible service and delicious food that helped make our wedding day so special. Highly recommend for both dining and catering your next event.“

“Consistently good - we cater in lunch for our office once a week and So Fresh is a popular healthy choice amongst the whole team.“

“I had an amazing experience after visiting Fresh Kitchen (Lutz) the other day. Both the Backened and Citrus Chicken were so tasty and perfectly seasoned. My friend had the Salmon and although I'm picky about my salmon I tried it and loved it. the Vegetables were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The restaurant was very clean. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable and very friendly. Kudos to the management. I will return.“

“I can't say enough about how much I love this place! From the food to the service and personal attention..it's all really wonderful! 😍“

“This place is perfect! SoFresh offers fresh healthy meal options - exactly what this area was lacking. The owners are great people always welcoming their customers with a smile and perfect service. My favorite bowl is grilled chicken with zucchini noodles, sweet potatoes and broccoli covered with delicious citrus dressing. Always excited to visit and get a healthy nutritious meal at SoFresh in Lutz.“

“The first time we were here, Steven was our waiter. We could tell he was reletively new so of course being an ex-wait staff myself, we were extremely nice for him. To our surprise he was phenomenal. We have been back four times now & each time we had to sit with Steven. The food is Great here and I recommend coming here often. BTWs, All the wait staff is so friendly & the food has always been wonderful!! I would try the ChickenGyro“

“On my good days
I come here to see the lake,
dressed in diamonds from the sun, these glittering jewels that shine and refract light upon light into my world-weary heart

telling me that you too can shine.
telling me-go forth now
Even into the mundane.
Go forth. And seek beauty.“

“The food is Amazing, smoothies like my homemade smoothies ❤️❤️“

“Every time I have dinner at Sacred Pepper, I try something new and never have I been disappointed. This time I tried the Pistachio Crusted Fried Brie with cranberry chutney, balsamic reduction and d toasted parmesan crostini and it was amazingly delicious and also a shareable plate. For dinner I had the Oak Grilled Norwegian Salmon with heirloom tomato salad, white wine butter sauce, and house-made orzo pasta with a side of the Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Applewood bacon and a balsamic glaze. It was all excellent and very flavorful just as everything else has been in my 4 visits here. It's hard to even pick a favorite! Besides the great selection of shareable plates, entrees, sides, and drinks, the decor and ambience are stunning. Then add to that, my server Adam was exceptional, and he was very attentive, polite, respectful, courteous, patient, and he genuinely made me feel so welcomed and valued. He has made so many wonderful recommendations to me over my visits and has even gotten me to try many new things that have all been excellent.“

“Every time I come here the food is always great and the beer is straight from the brewery in the back, even exclusives like Lord Chesterfield or Bongo Fizz that I can only find here. Everything I’ve had at the restaurant has been great, and the servers and bartenders are pleasant and knowledgeable about the beer and food. Highly recommend if you are in the area!“

“Hats off to the friendly staff! We were Florida July Sunshine hot after 1.5 hours at Tampa Bay Downs Golf Range and were looking forward to a cool TBBC brew and some ice water. Ginger was our server, awesome, she was perfect. We will be requesting her tables any time we return. She was kindly patient with us as we got our act together, ordered the ESPE Blonde and my better half greatly enjoyed the “The Last Days of Summer” sour. The food was surprisingly fantastic! They also have wood fire pizzas, which we will returning to try. Highly recommend!“

“Played here many years great action Great dealers and great food“

“Short on staff tonight. Usually faster service. BBQ is always good and the sweet tea is the best.“

“I stayed at the Embassy Suites Hotel this week for a few days on a business trip.

I was dealing with severe jet lag, so discovering the onsite restaurant was a lifesaver, especially since they also offer room service.

I tried their Ropa Vieja plate, and it was solid. The rice was great, the beans were flavorful, and the beef was incredibly tender. The sweet plantains added a nice contrast in flavor and balanced the dish perfectly!

While the menu prices are a bit on the high side, they’re pretty typical for a hotel restaurant. Considering the quality of the food and service, though, it definitely feels worth it.

Will I try their food again? Absolutely!“

“Friday night with friends, we tried Circles — a cozy little spot tucked away in a small Carrollwood plaza. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and our server, Vaughn, did an outstanding job taking care of us. The menu was impressively diverse with several Asian-inspired dishes. We started with the calamari, fried avocado slices, and dumplings — all delicious and perfectly prepared. The Southwestern soup was spot-on too. For entrées, we had eggplant parmesan, steak and blue cheese salad, and pan-roasted cod — every dish was fresh and flavorful. We didn’t order drinks, but the restaurant has an impressive wine collection and full bar for those who do. Excellent food, great service, and a comfortable atmosphere — we’ll definitely be back!“

“This is a really neat place! There is space to hang out, relax, and spend time with family or a date. There are various spaces to spend your time, inside at a table, inside playing pool, an inside bar, outside tables and outdoor game areas with chairs. It's family friendly, and is nice for larger groups or just a small family dinner like ours. It is also handicap accessible which was huge for us since our mom was with us in a wheelchair. We were able to take her to the bathroom and move around in it with her easily. It was just a really neat space and experience. The beer is great; the food is okay (I think I just picked the wrong plate). I will definitely be back! Great energy. Jake is spectacular.....Jacob as well :)“

“So fresh is my new fave!!!! So yummy and worth every dollar!!!“

“The cook Michael Nevison is online talking sexually about a 17 year old missing girl. I would not eat food that a predator would be cooking!“
