    Can you see the staff on their phones?
    Susan L.

    The best thing about this place is that they are open fairly late and they serve Mexican food.Second thing is that it was fairly clean My chicken quesadilla was ok,but there was nothing else with it on the plate. I think for $16 you could throw in some beans. Our waiter was nice,but the hostess staff needs some serious training. As we left 2 of them were bent over their phones and never even acknowledged our existence. I'd find somewhere else to eat

    Austin Republic - Tuesday night visit Upon arrival I was so excited that they had ping pong tables and corn hole outside. Two of my favs! We were seated pretty quickly, but the system that the hostesses use must have been malfunctioning or maybe confusing because it took two of them over 5 min to figure out where to sit us. Otherwise there would have been no wait. They have long weird booths and they are comfy but... we had to sit with strangers. So weird. A couple was already seated in the booth and we sat at the far end. Inside there was foosball and arcade games (pac man galaga combo ). We sat right next to kitchen entrance and there was some unexplainable source of water which made the kitchen floor perpetually flood. Someone was mopping it consistently and the water just kept coming. There must be a leak or plumbing issue. Didn't concern our meal but none of the employees had on slip-proof shoes. I was anxious for them lol we ordered bottomless salsa and chips which took a while to be refilled. We ordered the 2|2|2 combo. Pros: Ribs fantastic, Greens pretty good, Service decent Cons: Brisket eh, kinda dry and flavorless. And talk about a skimpy serving! Mac and queso - exactly what it sounds like, nothing special, just shells mixed in queso. Bbq sauce eh, tacos were soooooooooo tiny. Like wedding finger food tiny. It was surprising. The chicken on them was good though. This was a cons outweighing the pros kinda situation for me. I'd I go back for ribs only. But I'd be afraid that they might not be as good on a second visit simply because everything was such a mixed bag quality wise. Another review giving it to you straight no chaser. Enjoy!

    2-1-1 Two tacos of your choice, 1 meat of your choice and 1 side of your choice. Great deal

    Back again and they didn't disappoint! Brisket was juicy and seasoned and smoked to perfection. Birra egg rolls were absolutely delicious and the corn ribs were so good. The decor is very cool and it's open bright and inviting. Service was great and they were very attentive. One of the best BBQ spots in the area.

    WOW! This has to be one of the best brisket sandwich's I have ever had. The service and atmosphere were great! Quality of food was superb! Highly recommend if you are a bbq lover.

    Great surprise , quality of food was great portions were very large. A lot of detail on decor and serving pieces also. Reasonable prices with friendly service. Happy hour has great selection of $7.00 bites

    The comfortable interior of the restaurant.

    Delicious Brisket and Queso. Tasty Margaritas. And a very spacious and comfortable vibe. Also, a good spot for families too as they have some decent arcade machines and games.

    Best happy hour in the area! Lively bar, great bar tenders. Best brisket, ribs and wings in Palm Beach. Collard greens, Yucca bites are highly recommended. Corn ribs were tasty - a cool twist on street corn, great sauces. Can't promise this - but I did get to see the smoking process first hand. The smokers are custom built. Super cool.

    2/2/2

    We absolutely love it here! Such a great atmosphere, happy hour and the food is top notch. I can't remember having a better brisket honestly.

    Brisket Burrito   The combo of Tx dry rub bbq and Mexican is genius
    Sandra L.

    ambiance is "busy" family friendly with free games for the kids, Large dining area and huge 40+ bar seating. I understand outdoor accommodations are in the works for more family friendly gatherings

    This is a super unassuming bbq spot hidden in a strip mall…read more We ordered 1/3 lb brisket and 1/3 lb pulled pork. It was way more than enough for the two to us! For sides we got Mac n cheese and collard greens. A Cornbread muffin. And a Mixed berry Cobbler for dessert. Everything was truly outstanding. That brisket was so good. Loved the sauces at the table which were fun to try the different options and complemented the pulled pork really nicely. Was really pleasantly surprised by the staff. A bunch of young men working - teenagers would be my guess - and they couldn't have been kinder!

    Came here for the first time on Friday for lunch - they were running a Philly Cheesesteak special…read moreand wanted to give it a try! It was made with brisket, sauteed peppers & onions, and topped with a poblano cheese sauce. I am not huge on these type of subs because in my past experience, the bread gets too soggy for me to enjoy. But I was pleasantly surprised when it didn't! I did end up eating it like open face sandwiches cause there was too much meat to close it - but that's not a bad problem to have lol! We also ordered a couple of sides - mac n cheese and potato salad - good! We also got some of the jalapeno cheddar sausage - great flavor and spice level! It's the kind of restaurant that you walk up to the window, order what you'd like, and then they prepare and have it for you either at check our or give you a number for your table, so they can bring it out to you. Everyone that worked there was friendly and helpful! It definitely felt like a BBQ place when you walked in, but a touch bit more of a modern feel. I'd definitely like to come back and try some of their other meats and sides. But for what we ordered and time we were there, it was good and we enjoyed our lunch!

It is part of a yacht club setting. There were four in our party and when we arrived around 5:00pm there weren't too many guests but the scenery overlooking the water was what I was hoping for after doing my research on Yelp. The sign said seat yourself so we spoke to one of the staff and were told take any table without menus on it. If there are menus on the table it's reserved. We saw a table with 4 menus and said that must be ours as we made a reservation and we all laughed.. We were given two menus each (early bird & regular each had nice choices. For the table we order the Fried Zucchini as an appetizer and it was perfect. For dinner one in our party ordered the Chicken Piccata off the early bird, another the Mahi Mahi off the regular menu. My wife and I each had the Penni Ali vodka from the regular menu.. when our dinners arrived the portions were of good size and hot. Each of us were extremely happy with our choices. As I mentioned what a gem!!! If you choose to try this restaurant I hope you'll be as happy, excited & pleased as we were last night..

Our waiter was very attentive drinks were absolutely delicious! 10/10 the vibe is extremely chill and laid back, if I only lived closer I would be more often!

The fries are hand cut and amazing, the brussel sprouts are to die for, and the mashed potatoes are literally a taste of home. I am a frequenter of Stormhouse, and have had nearly everything on their menu, from the Lobster Bisque to the specials, such as their Italian Philly or Corned Beef and Cabbage (on select events), and I can tell you everything is to die for. Their bar, unlike most breweries, has a full liquor license, which means I can get a wide range of bevvy's if I'm in the mood as well, which I like. One of my favourite things about Stormhouse though, honestly, is the people! Penny, Santi, Michelle, and Brian, are all awesome, and the owners are always around and very friendly as well. If you have questions about the process of how they made their beers, they're happy to explain it. They also have events all the time, which are fun themed nights, and also something I wish more breweries would do. Whether it's a summer luau or a pirate night, the events are always awesome and a fun day/night. All in all, you can tell they really care about the quality of service, friendliness of the staff, and the overall vibe. I cannot recommend this place more highly. If I could, I'd give it 6 stars.

    Sometimes the best restaurant discoveries aren't planned. They're the result of hunger, a long…read moredrive, and a Google search that happens to get it exactly right. On our drive home from Miami to Jacksonville, we traded Interstate 95 for the slower, more scenic A1A. It made for beautiful views, but after crawling through one coastal town after another, lunch became a priority. A quick search landed us at Stage Kitchen & Bar on PGA Boulevard, a restaurant I later learned had earned a place in the 2025 Michelin Guide. After one meal, it was easy to understand why. We began with two appetizers that could not have been more different, duck confit egg rolls and a grilled cheese. Calling the grilled cheese "just a grilled cheese" would be unfair. Brie melted between perfectly griddled bread kissed with white truffle oil already sounds luxurious. Pair it with a bright mango jam and suddenly a childhood comfort food becomes something unexpectedly elegant. Richness met sweetness in all the right proportions. The duck confit egg rolls were equally memorable. The duck was deeply seasoned with Middle Eastern spices, giving each bite layers of warm, savory flavor. The accompanying peanut chutney added sweetness, nuttiness, and just enough contrast to keep the dish from becoming too heavy. These egg rolls packed far more personality than their modest appearance suggested. For lunch, my wife ordered the grilled black grouper sandwich. The fish, sourced fresh from local suppliers, was flaky, moist, and clean tasting. Lettuce, tomato, onion, and a malt vinegar aioli gave the sandwich brightness without overwhelming the fish. It was simple, balanced, and exactly what a fresh fish sandwich should be. I chose Stage's signature burger, two Certified Angus Beef patties topped with aged white cheddar, caramelized onions, sunflower sprouts, and their house "fancy sauce." This is the kind of burger that reminds you why burgers became America's favorite sandwich in the first place. Cooked to a juicy medium, every bite was rich without becoming heavy. The caramelized onions added sweetness, the white cheddar delivered sharpness, and the sunflower sprouts provided freshness and texture. The fancy sauce contributed just enough heat to keep everything interesting without stealing the spotlight. Dessert continued the restaurant's habit of taking familiar flavors and giving them thoughtful refinement. My sticky rice ice cream, finished with mango sauce and toasted coconut, captured everything I love about mango sticky rice while transforming it into something lighter and more playful. It was creative without feeling gimmicky. My wife ordered three macarons from local pastry maker Macaroner, S'mores, Passion Fruit, and Lime Coconut. Each shell was delicately crisp before giving way to a soft, airy center, exactly as a proper macaron should. Stage Kitchen & Bar takes familiar dishes and quietly elevates them through technique, quality ingredients, and restraint. Nothing feels overcomplicated or designed simply to impress. Every plate feels carefully considered. Sometimes trusting Google is a gamble. This time, it paid off. Great restaurants don't always announce themselves. Sometimes they're simply waiting for hungry travelers willing to take the next exit.
