Review content:
This is one of my favorite places in downtown St. Pete:
The location is fantastic -- I always try to sit outdoors, as the patio area is awesome. Of course the outdoor chairs aren't all that comfortable -- they're all metal (as you would EXPECT in an outdoor location) and yes, they scrape the patio when you move them... duh! But they often have live music (with a variety of music styles) out there, and especially in the mornings and evenings, there's just an aura of calm there... I love it!
The food is very good... not award-winning, mind you, but very good none-the-less. I've never had a BAD meal there in the 5 years I've lived near downtown. The menu is a mixture of standard face and some newer, more ""modern"" fare. It not only works for me - my parents (70's) and my kids (teens/20's) all love it there too!
The service can admittedly be hit or miss... but this is a very casual place, and it seems to me that the staff just sometimes gets caught up in the casual ambiance... besides, when I dine out and have a service problem, I blame the server, not the whole restaurant. That being said, the only service issues I've ever had there were addressed and corrected on the spot.
The cost is very reasonable. I can't answer for the other reviewer's concerns about coupons, as I've never tried to use one here -- but their prices are already affordable, if you ask me. (And when I DO use a coupon, I'm always courteous enough to present it when I order, not when the check arrives).
Lastly, to the reviewer who suggested that other reviews were written by staffers or owners -- click my ID -- I'm an IT Consultant, not in the food business at all.... but I don't expect 5-star service at a casual dining place either!
