Definitely a good stop for vibes, rooftop is relaxing and sick views. Wish there was music but not a big deal, ordered the nachos and both of their pizzas. They weren’t bad but not outstanding. Service was good and I’d  recommend coming by and hanging out for a drink and light bite.

First off, adding a mandatory 20% tip for a party of two is ridiculous—especially since it’s supposedly optional—and the service was by far the worst we’ve ever experienced. We ordered a Cuban sandwich, a burger, a beer, and an espresso martini.

As locals, we frequent many restaurants, even higher-end ones, and none charge $20 for an espresso martini, especially one that tasted like mostly creamer. When our food arrived, the waitress dropped it off without asking if we needed anything and didn’t return until it was time to bring the check. At one point, another staff member randomly brought some sort of Cajun sauce for what they called a “Cajun sandwich”—but the sandwich was a Cuban and the sauce was horrible.

When the waitress finally came back with the check, I mentioned that my sandwich tasted premade (days old) dry and cold. She removed the plate while I was still eating my fries which was rude. A manager eventually came over to tell us the sandwich was taken off the bill, but there was no apology or attempt to address the poor experience or even ask if they could make something new.

To top it all off, the 20% tip was mandatory, which felt incredibly unfair given the lackluster service. It’s clear the waitress didn’t feel the need to provide good service because she knew she’d get the tip regardless. Needless to say we left still hungry.

Would definitely come back here! Came for brunch and we ordered the smoked salmon benedict and the braised short ribs Benedict, with mimosas. Everything was soo good and flavorful (only small complaint was that the food wasn’t very hot). Service was very good and atmosphere is nice too. Excellent location.

We were on business trip and decided to try out this local restaurant. We checked-in at 7:10 pm and requested a larger table for 12-14 guest. We ordered our entrees and 2 hours later, we were finally served. I find it hard to believe that it would take 2 hours to cook steak regardless of meat cuts. Additionally, we ordered 3 bottles of red wine of which the last bottled  wine was supposedly poured in to a wine decanter. The wine tasted very sour and I was pretty sure it wasn't in the same wine list that we ordered. The food preparation was at best was mediocre considering the average meat cut was $55 and over. The service was slow considering there was only one waiter serving us. The atmosphere was horrible and loud. I would not recommend dining where there is a lot of tourist food traffic. The restaurant could have place us in a private room considering the size of the group. Again, if you are in business trip in St. Petersburg, don't bother trying this restaurant. I believe there are other restaurants out there offering better quality and fine dining experience.

We have eaten here several times and it has always been wonderful.  We went for dinner New Years eve.  Our expectations were a bit lower than usual since it was a holiday.  However, we were very please to find the same high quality food and exceptional service.  Our server Anthony was great, he was friendly with a good sense of humor.  Although the room was packed he made us feel like we were his only table.  As is usual the manager stopped by to check on us.  I am delighted to say that they continue to provide a consistently exceptional dining experience.  The "potato pasta" gnocchi were fantastic.
