A group of 8 of us came in for an early dinner. WJ's is right along the Manatee River. It has…read moregreat views of the water and the 75 bridge. It's a large place with a lot of outdoor space including a large outdoor bar as well. Since we wanted to enjoy the view, we decided to sit outside on the deck. Since it was early, we were the only ones outside. The music was really loud; so loud we had to shout, so we asked if it could be turned down. The manager agreed and it was turned down. A little. We still had to shout a bit to talk with each other, so we asked again, but they wouldn't turn it down any more. So, not very nice for us, the only customers on the deck. Our waitress was hustling, perhaps she had too many tables assigned to her. I had the Jambalaya, which was OK, not great. It seems like the ingredients were cheap. Don't think we'll be back.

Someone mentioned in another review that The Barrel Room is a hidden gem--and they weren't kidding…read more From the moment you walk in, the beautifully decorated interior stands out. It feels luxurious yet totally relaxed--perfect whether you're in the mood for a casual drink or a full dinner. The bartenders were not only fun and welcoming, but also clearly passionate about what they do. They were eager to mix up creative drinks and make recommendations, which added a lot to the experience. I came in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety on the menu. Whether you're craving a sandwich or a filet, there's something for everyone. The food was delicious, and the prices were incredibly fair--especially for the level of service and atmosphere. Same goes for the drinks and wine list--great options, all reasonably priced. I'll definitely be coming back again and again!

With live music, seating might be hard to find, but there is lots of it if you keep walking through to the back, closer to the river. We found a table toward the river as a family was getting up. The busser cleaned off the table quickly and we had some menus in no time. Our waitress was great- super efficient. I had the grouper bites with coleslaw and fries. The grouper bites were so tender and cooked perfectly, with the batter having the perfect fry/ crisp! The fries seemed battered too and they were delicious as well! We ended with a sliced of peanut butter pie and it was to die for! Soon after we arrived, a live cover band started playing and it made our Friday night!

Our server, Susan, was super lovely and very attentive. I can tell this place is a local favorite for a reason. All this praise to say, I won't return because of their use of AI menus. It's genuinely extremely disappointing, because I really did like everything else. If it weren't for their AI menus, this would be a 5 star review easily. I wouldn't have gone here to begin with if I had known they use AI. Extremely disappointing. ** EDIT - With the knowledge of pulling AI Menus, I am extremely happy to say that I can wholeheartedly recommend Dockside Waterfront Grill. Thank you.

The chicken seemed like... it was prepackaged and plopped on the salad, not grilled fresh. The bacon was hard and dry, not cooked here either. The romaine seemed fresh, the ranch was just alright. I'd say the experience was OK. Like going to an Applebees or something... not great, but edible.

I went to Craftails Speakeasy and tried the Strawberry Fields from their spring craft tail menu…read more Honestly, it was strong, super pretty, and had this little dried orange thing plus a bubble that added smoke to the drink, felt fancy without feeling "my wallet is crying." Service was awesome too. We got there right when they opened so it was just me and my mom at first and the guy at the bar made it easy and fun. The vibe feels a bit on the fancier side, but it's still chill, a perfect spot for date night or just taking cute photos. No hidden entrance or secret password that we could see and street parking is available. No wait during the day. It's not the cheapest spot, but honestly worth it for the drinks and the aesthetic. I'd love to go back and try more of their craft tails sometime!

Unfortunately, this experience went from disappointing to downright concerning…read more I do want to distinguish between the two bartenders working. The younger bartender was nice, pleasant, and welcoming. The older gentleman behind the bar, however, was a completely different experience. He came across as rude and was essentially barking orders at guests about how he would take our orders. For a place positioning itself as an upscale cocktail experience, that attitude set the wrong tone immediately. Unfortunately, the drinks didn't make up for it. My espresso martini was mediocre at best. My friend had the lemon drop, which was equally lackluster. Then came the $30 smoked Old Fashioned, which should have been impressive at that price point but was incredibly disappointing. We were also told they infuse their own vanilla into the vodka. Whatever they're using or doing with it, the end result tasted incredibly cheap --not remotely what I'd expect from a premium cocktail program. Then there's the condition of the place itself. There was a wrapped pipe dripping water onto/near a lounge bench, chipped and peeling paint on the walls, and obvious signs that preventive maintenance is desperately needed. The space simply wasn't aesthetically pleasing or maintained at the level the prices and concept would suggest. But it actually got worse when I went to the bathroom. Part of the ceiling appeared to be falling down, water was actively dripping into a bucket, and there was visible dark growth on the ceiling tile that looked like mold. At that point, my concern went well beyond décor. If you're going for an upscale speakeasy experience take a look at The Doctor's Office. That's the kind of atmosphere, presentation, and attention to detail I associate with this concept. When you're charging $30 for a cocktail, expectations are naturally going to be high. I expect excellent drinks, professional hospitality, and a well-maintained environment. Aside from the younger bartender, who was genuinely pleasant, this experience missed the mark across the board.
