"The food was really good! The price for the food for what you get is absurd. 42$ for 4 "jumbo sea scallops" is insane given the size of what I got. The steak and brussel sprouts were delicious. The drinks were awesome and strong! The service was absolutely abysmal. We got our drinks and appetizer order from one server, and then never saw them again. The main server we had was lagging and awkward at best. He kept going behind the bar to be a bartender? On two separate times, the runner was going to give our food to another table, very little cohesion. The establishment was not packed by any means, and there were ample servers. We ended up getting the walking manager to get us our check because we waited for so long. Overall price vs. service and food I wouldn't come back."

"Great location right at the hospital. We tried to make reservations, which I would recommend… but their phone system was just dumping calls for reservations even though they were open. We took a chance and went for lunch anyway and we ended up sitting at a large tabletop for shared use. Not ideal, but it worked. The atmosphere was just as we expected and the service was excellent. The food was very good and presented well. We enjoyed the visit and will consider it again when in St Pete."

"We decided to have brunch here and the food was delicious! I didn’t even have to add any extra seasoning to my food. Our service was excellent but I didn’t get his name and none of the servers were wearing name tags. I can tell you that he had a mini Afro and reminded me of someone from the movie SuperBad. I would definitely eat here again."

"If I could rate higher than 5 stars, I absolutely could. We had the best service we’ve ever received! The waiter was very kind, funny, and helpful. He also hooked us up. The food was incredible and definitely worth the prices. The music was great, and the place itself is very cute. 10/10 would recommend and we definitely will be coming back."

"Upscale but not stuffy. Great service with fantastic food and drink. Today we all had the hamburgers (2 patties) but in the past we have had a variety of foods that were all good. If you want to get off less expensively, they have a super happy hour on food AND drinks. These days it’s hard to find both. To top it all off, this place is clean as a whistle and that gets a lot of points with me. Atmosphere is as you expect, a library but nicer."
