“The traditional Cuban sandwich is out of this world, the croquetas are perfectly crispy, and the mamey shake is pure heaven. The other day, my coworkers and I tried their delivery service—expected in 40 minutes, but just 5 minutes later it was already on the way, fresh and perfect. Everything arrived super fast and with amazing quality. Highly recommended!“

“There are more than a few outstanding breakfast/brunch restaurants in Sarasota, Florida. One of them is Station 400 at 400 North Lemon Avenue in downtown Sarasota. Owned and operated by Dean and Kelly Fox, it is open from 7:30 to 2:30 daily and has earned a reputation as the leading go-to destination for brunch in the city. My wife is addicted to Belgian waffles with vanilla bean maple syrup, whipped butter, fruit, cream and toast with jam. I always start with a bowl of McCann's steel cut Irish oatmeal with cinnamon, granola and steamed berries. And I finish with the Foxes' version of traditional Eggs Benedict, called Tuffle Eggs Benedict, with a toasted English muffin, arugula, caramelized bacon, roasted mushrooms and truffle hollandaise sauce with hash browns and toast with jam. Station 400 also has a location at 8215 Lakewood Main Street in Lakewood Ranch.“

“It was a lovely night. A tour of the museum followed by dinner. Oyster appetizer was excellent. Salad was generous with lobster and avocado. Lamb chops encrusted in pistachio with vegetables was also excellent. Dessert the best chocolate mousse I have ever had. Everything was perfect and the private tour of the museum by the director was enjoyable.“

“if as a poor European you're visiting the us its hard to find the good food given the abundance of fast food which is too greasy, too salty or way too sugary.here at the selby cafe we found excellent sandwiches. we had a salad and a sandwich with a teatrue its pricey, but its good taste you get for it

“Lunch and service consistently excellent. The place is small and no frills but deli sandwiches are excellent. Noodle salad and potato salad are great sides. They have daily specials. I see lots of people order soup. They run a friendly and efficient lunch spot. A hidden gem. Love to pick up and take to picnic by the water.“

“Lisa was the absolute best! I’ve been in the US for a year and this was the first experience where i gonna remember the server for life!! She was so sweet and client oriented! U will be taken care of with her, she made sure we got exactly what we wanted🙏🏻“

“I can’t hear just for my son to have an interview and I ended up sitting down and eating. The food was amazing. I never ate here before customer service was great. The atmosphere was relaxing kind of because I was there at the end of the day and even though I came in late, the food taste fresh and the hostess was very kind and was my server also and she was very kind even though I was there late the cooks seemed to not mind because the food was definitely fresh“

“Ive Never had a bad experience here! I usually dont leave reviews, but figured i owed it! I wento KeKes in Sun City, for the 1st time, I didn't even know there was 1, and the food was So Awful, I almost wrote Kekes off:( To make it worse, the manager tried to fix it...the pancake and potatoes were raw...2nd time out i just kept it..but it still was not good:( My grandson's fries...Awful..they did like the tenders. And for such an awful experience, the manager could have been friendlier. He wasn't rude, I did not ask for a discount...but he gave me the indication that me asking would have led to an even Worse experience.
I said ALL of this in hopes that it keeps Cooper Creek in business! And Sun City respects an Honest review and does better“

“We generally don’t eat at Panera because some of the other locations have been less than impressive in the past. On a whim, we decided to give this location a try and it was the BEST decision my fiancé and I have made recently! This Panera location ROCKS! Every member of the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their job. The food is insanely fresh, hot, and delicious, and they NEVER skimp on portions/ingredients! The menu items actually come out looking like they do in the advertisements - and they are loaded full of flavor. I recommend one of the new toasted baguette sandwiches; in particular, the Buffalo chicken is to die for! In addition to phenomenal food and service, the location is adorable and convenient; the outdoor seating is very cozy and inviting - you feel like you are eating in a garden. This is our new favorite casual dining spot to hit up at the UTC mall. Definitely check it out if you are in the area, you will certainly not regret it!“

“Best martinis ever….Stop by and see Henry!“

“The food we had was excellent, and we enjoyed talking with the owner who said he has been in business for 21 years. Its important to support small restaurant businesses especially when they serve authentic Italian cuisine and desserts made with fresh ingredients and pride.“

“I have enjoyed Blvd Cafe for breakfast and lunch. Love the croissants and latte and both the grilled salmon salad and flank steak with salad were delicious lunch entrees! The owner Mica is gracious and the wait staff hard-working and friendly. Great neighborhood, friendly vibe.“

“This Panera always has great service and just as good food. I felt I had to write a review since my server Judge was just exceptional! He is so friendly patient and very helpful with deciding your order and explaining things. For instance the menu changes. Panera you are lucky to have such a valuable employee!“

“Probably the best WaWa that I've ever been to. I frequent this place so much I'm basically an NPC on premises at least x4 a week so you know this is real. This place gets lots of tourists and locals/commuters - and they are always on top of it. I remember this one time I was there a late Saturday evening and my order got taken. They were slammed but I saw one girl tap in somebody to take over the order she was working on and remake mine immediately- I wasn't even in a rush like that but she came through. Then just yesterday I was getting a frozen coffee, the kind lady making it ended up with some leftover, so my girl got a little free frozen coffee too. Cashiers are always holding it down too, they dont always have all registers open but this one dude with glasses is super chill even if there is a long line. Now let's talk outside the establishment. You usually have some dudes smoking a cigarette after riding in from a fishing spot on their ebike or construction guys on break. Pretty lite crowd everybody's hanging out no scary folk Anyways, thanks for reading this long WaWa review“

“Come here quite often and it seems like the crew has changed quite a bit in these past months; it's a Panera bread nothing special but they have definitely changed things up in this specific location quite a bit where things are much better now.“
