The food was overpriced and mediocre at best. The quality didn't come close to justifying the…read moreprices. The only somewhat decent dish was the ahi tuna dirty rice, but the protein-to-rice ratio was questionable, especially when a dirty rice plate already costs $9. The braised beef short rib bao buns ($12 for two) were overly sweet and had a mushy texture. The truffle gyoza (5 pieces) somehow arrived burnt on one side across every piece and were only mildly warm when served. Service was average overall. The indoor seating is nice, and being located in the heart of St. Pete gives the restaurant a great atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the setting or the prices. I would not come back.

On our way home, we spotted something that we're not usually used to seeing in Paw Paw- an…read morehonest-to-goodness food truck. It's not that they're uncommon around the area, it's more that we've never been able to find them when we're hungry. However, this one happened to be at the right place at the right time, and the three of us pulled in to take a look. It was parked in the parking lot at Warner's Vineyard, and is apparently a fixture there for the concerts and things they play, not to mention other days of the week. The menu, however, is full of things one wouldn't expect to find outside of somewhere like Grand Rapids. Conch? Soft-shell crab? In Paw Paw? Well... hopefully this place can get the word out, because I know we have a lot of foodies around! Unfortunately, as much as I'd love to be adventurous, hunger won out, and I ended up trying the hamburger, while my sister got the Italian Beef sandwich- both of which came with a mound of fries that my niece seemed to have an eye for annihilating. It did take a while for everything to cook, but there's a nice little area with a decent-sized river running through it that you can watch (it desperately needs picnic tables or SOMETHING, that area is too pretty to not take advantage of!). I'd be a tad careful about sitting- there were leftover fishing bobbers in the grass, and I can't be too sure there weren't fishhooks or something there. But finally, our food was made and ready and we paid for it, and retreated to the car to sample. The burger was nice and juicy, and had plenty of toppings to it- yet the bun was nice and good and though slightly toasted, not to the point of falling apart. The Italian Beef sandwich was loaded full of yummy beef, and the smell of it was just plain amazing. The french fries were really, really good- they were the kind that's slightly firm on the outside, but full of fluffy potato goodness- not crunchy, but solid enough to stand up to ketchup and still not end up all crunchy. Both sandwiches came with a lot more in the way of french fries than it showed in the pictures- they're niece-approved and she went through a few solid handfuls of them. But the first thing my sister said after tasting her sandwich was "Mmmmmm!"- she was really impressed by the flavor of the beef, and it was a huge sandwich, too! The burger was also really juicy and wonderful, to the point where I was just dipping it in ketchup and practically inhaling it. It's bigger and thicker than I was used to in a burger, and it even passed the bun test- I could hold it and dip it with one hand and not have everything droop and fall out of the bun all over the box/my lap/whatever else I had there. About the only caveat I have is that this place IS a food truck, so it's kind of expensive- the burger with fries ran us ten bucks, and the Italian Beef was twelve bucks- in all, our bill was about $26 for two people and one fry-inhaling six-year-old- but on the other hand, the food is REALLY, REALLY good. If you're in the area, or even just passing through, check this truck out and pass the word- you won't be disappointed!

If you are nice, maybe they will give you a sample of the Ceviche with fresh herbs and lime. Today, I was fortunate enough to have the Baked Brie in Croissant--- served with a side of their famous Mango Chutney. It was heavenly! The Seafood Gumbo is packed with tender bits of seafood and okra, serviced with a side of rice. The shrimp, scallops, chicken, sausage, and squid were so tender and fresh. The rice is even fragrant and expertly cooked! They pride themselves on their famous Wild Salmon, which is richer and more natural tasting than the stuff you buy from the grocery store. The service is friendly, organized, and fast. With food trucks, I normally have to double check everything, but at Curb Your Appetite everything has been perfect so far. https://www.facebook.com/CurbingYourAppetite/info

They now have one bowl size, and they are charging per meat (IE fish, chicken, tofu, etc) so you don't get any meat included in the price + have increased pricing on 'premium toppings' such as seaweed salad, avocado, and kimchi. As a result, my poke bowl is $15 with the smallest scoop of fish (one selection btw), unlimited toppings (which is literally just fruit, edamame, cilantro, and salsa only), and one premium topping (avocado). My bowl was mostly rice and was one of the saddest poke bowls i've ever had. Why would you charge for any fish or meat related toppings, when it's literally a poke place?? The greed is astounding. Very disappointed in the ownership.

Service was friendly, quick and helpful and prices were more than fair for the flavor. We went for brunch and everything we had was very tasty- I didn't use a single condiment, which is rare the French toast was amazing. It's honestly the perfect amount (non American portion), but you will want that more. We also had the crêpe V something and the rustic omelette both exquisite. I will be happy ordering this every time, but I'm also curious to explore a few of the other options. The menu isn't super dense, but we're thinking of trying the sweet crêpe next time and maybe a desert. Pro tip add some of the syrupy whipped cream from your French toast to a cappuccino and enjoy. Better than most lattes. 10 out of 10 would brunch again!
