“Little treasure hidden in strip mall, real Italian food, not skimpy on portions or flavor, quaint atmosphere, attentive staff. Thoroughly enjoyed a dinner reservation there, and no little kids. Perfect place for a mother's day dinner, I'll be back : )“
“Old Heights feels like going to your favorite grandma’s house (the one you actually like) and having a great meal. Everything on the menu is good, the rotating specials are great, and the staff makes you feel right at home. A small and intimate dining experience.“
“The service was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. However, there were slight delays in getting our orders taken during peak hours, which is understandable given the restaurant's popularity.“
“After our flight in Atlanta was delayed and then cancelled, we were finally placed on the last flight out at 12:20am. I quickly made arrangements for a hotel in Brandon since we would be attending my Grandmother’s funeral there the next day. I first booked a holiday inn through my IHG app as a late check-in option since I was booking it after midnight. Since it was being booked so late, I wasn’t able to put in suggestions at the time of booking such as arrival time. I tried to call the hotel over and over before my flight took off and never could get anyone to pick up. Once we landed at 2am in Tampa, I tried again repeatedly to reach the hotel to talk to someone about our arrival time. However, since I booked the late check-in option at 12:30am, I assumed it would be okay. Once we arrived at 3am after picking up our rental car and driving 20 minutes, I quickly realized why nobody would pick up all night. The receptionist was on a personal call and seemed bothered by our arrival. He had a difficult time finding my reservation, and finally accepted my suggestion to use my confirmation number. Once he located my reservation, he told me it was cancelled because of my late arrival. I explained that I booked a late check-in merely 3 hours prior and tried to explain our situation. He then told me that he could reinstate my reservation, which seemed like an easy fix. I asked if we would be able to extend check-out so we could try to get more sleep before my grandmother’s funeral, and he quickly told me no, that he couldn’t do that. He then told me because he already did an audit for the night, that he would have to charge us for two nights, nearly $700, to stay for only 6 hours. He had absolutely no empathy that this was 3am and me, my husband, and our son had been traveling all day to try to get to this funeral. He took a bad day, and made it so much worse. I asked him to cancel the reservation and that we will just sleep in our rental car if we have to. Thankfully, I called courtyard Marriott 7 miles down the road and they were more than willing to accommodate us, including a military discount, which ended up being about half of the price as Holiday Inn, a late check-out, and offered their condolences. The gentleman working at the front desk showed empathy and prevented my family from sleeping in a car at 3am hours before a funeral. Everyone was pleasant and a breath of fresh air compared to what we encountered down the road at holiday inn express. Empathy goes a long way and because of this desk clerk, we are Marriott customers for life. Marriot for the win!“
“My friend and I came here for a dinner and we had a great time. I got the seaweed salad appetizer and the poke bowl entree which were both delicious. My friend got the faroe island salmon which she finished in about two minutes. Our servers name was David and he was extremely welcoming, kind, and attentive. Would definitely go back.“
“Talking Pint has some great offers on some really good food and a great beer selection. We tried the new chicken lettuce wrap appetizer last night and they were amazing. Also, don't underestimated this place for a great steak. they had ribeye available last night and it was cooked perfectly and they use real charcoal grill. Outstanding flavor and such a reasonable price for a chargrilled steak! We have had most items on the menu and they are all well made and tasty. This is a great spot.“
