Amazing place in Lakewood Ranch! I'm so happy to have a great brewery/restaurant close to home…read morejust like what I was used to where I moved from years ago. Great food, awesome beer selection, and love the vibe! Had the dry rub wings today along with a couple hazy's. Excellent! For those posting negative reviews, I urge you to give them another shot. We were there the night they reopened after Hurricane Milton, as it seems were half Lakewood Ranch! It's an understatement to say they were slammed! They were doing the best they could given the circumstances. Yet there was a table close to us that found fault. Give it a friggin rest people! Everyone is entitled to have an "off day", especially after a Cat 4 hurricane rips through your area! Inner Compass didn't have to reopen as quickly as they did. But they did anyway because they were serving a real need. If people don't see that, then that's on them! I've never had a bad meal there. Yes, occasionally service is slow or less attentive but if you look at the wider picture of what's happening in the moment, there's a real, legitimate reason. People, don't just get stuck in your own bubble and actually take time to observe what's going on around you! In the meantime, I plan to go to Inner Compass as often as I can for my ICB Beer Cheese Burgers and Hazy Boys!

The Server Double Dropped a bill. The red headed waitress charged me at first a $17.96 bill for the…read moretime I was on the patio. Just beer no food(I showed up late) The table decided to move into the bar area after the meal around 20 mins later after we had already closed all table bills. At the bar ,One gentleman in the group ordered 3 beers and pays cash. The red headed waitress then came over to the bar area after about another 15 mins had passed and said she didn't charge me so she placed a $24 tab to pay. I payed confusingly. As The Bar was closing the group left but before I left the parking lot I checked my banking statements. I Saw the double charge. Walked back in and told them there was a mistake. Their response was "our mistake. Let's correct it." Sound good so far, I even went as far as saying the 24$ tab was the mistake because the time stamp on the processing but the waitress came over and deliberately chose the higher amount to charge me because the tip was higher for her cash out. Smh. I really did like the vibes but that experience is very telling on morals and values. Really did enjoy the beers too..sad.

I have been here about a dozen times and cannot believe I never reviewed it!…read more Little Joe To Go is an absolute hidden gem! The lunch menu is one of the best values around. The bento boxes are packed with so much food that you'll probably have leftovers, and every single item is fresh, flavorful, and high quality. It's hard to find a place that offers this much food at such a reasonable price. The service is another standout. Everyone is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Great food, generous portions, excellent prices, and outstanding service--I'll keep coming back time and time again!

The employees were friendly/helpful and the restrooms were clean.

My family and I recently dined here and unfortunately left disappointed. We waited about 30 minutes…read morefor our food, which seemed unusual given that the restaurant was not particularly busy. From our table, I could actually see my chicken sandwich sitting in the service window for quite some time before it was finally brought out. When the food arrived, the sandwich, fries, and cheese were all cold. I politely asked for the meal to be remade and inquired whether it would take another 30 minutes. Our server said they would get it out quickly and explained that they were busy. However, looking around the dining room, there were only a handful of occupied tables and two servers working. Several nearby tables were simply having drinks, so it was difficult to understand the delay. What was most disappointing wasn't even the cold food--it was the lack of acknowledgment. A simple apology or some communication about the delay would have gone a long way toward improving the experience. I understand that servers aren't responsible for cooking the food, but they do pass the service window regularly. If food has been sitting under the heat lamps for several minutes waiting on other items, someone should be checking on it or having it remade before it reaches the customer. We were hoping to add this restaurant to our list of regular dining spots, but based on this visit, it unfortunately didn't make the cut.

For a pub, they actually have great food. It's a scratch kitchen so you can customize your order…read more The Florida Harvest salad was amazing. I got the side size and it was perfect but comes in a very small bowl making it hard to eat. If you get the side size, strongly suggest asking them to put it on a plate. The entree size actually looks the same amount of salad, but on a normal size dish. The blackened shrimp was cooked perfectly and the berry vinaigrette was amazing. It does have a pub feel so keep that in mind when going. It also gets very crowded so I suggest going at an "off" peak time if you want to try it.

We got one of their specialty pizzas, with ingredients we really love, yet the flavor of both the toppings AND the crust was just not that impressive. We did do a pickup and didn't dine in, but we live literally 3 minutes away, and when we got home it was still hot, so it wasn't a case of losing heat and flavor due to a long drive or delivery. It just wasn't that good. I hope we try it one more time, but as they say, first impressions tend to stick, and ours just wasn't that great.

We were greeted immediately upon arriving and sat right away. Our server, Justin, arrived at our table immediately. He was very friendly, professional and sincere. And with OUT being annoying, was vigilant in getting our drink orders and then our food decisions. We chose the chicken fingers & fries app, 2 burgers and a Cobb salad. Justin then asked if we wanted all the food together or he'll wait 3 minutes after our chicken finger app. We chose for him to order our entrees after the app was delivered. LITERALLY, LITERALLY 30 seconds after he walked away from our table, our chicken finger appetizer was delivered. WAYYYYYY to quickly we all thought, and we were right. Both the chicken fingers and fries were BARELY warm! They basically just sent us out an order that was very obviously sitting under the warmer TOO LONG! Shame on them for 'selling' dead food. Justin came by and apologized and took the plate. After a few minutes, the plate came out again, NOT hot but warmer/hotter than the first one. Our entrees were delivered about 5 minutes later. The burgers were cooked perfectly to what we asked for and the salad was cold. Now the sides we ordered with our burgers: Sweet potato fries, NOT hot and crunchy and served with pieces of their fried Brussel sprouts on the bottom. The other burger had Onion Ring as a side. WARM, NOT HOT, soft not crunchy, and just overall nasty. We were hungry and I did not complain when Justin checked back with us. Overall, the problem was anything fried. So whoever worked the 'inside' and 'outside' kitchen windows obviously were just grabbing anything that they needed to 'sell'. Bathrooms were clean but this was the first time that I had bad food. I personally feel that this was a completely avoidable situation...and I blame kitchen staff for not taking the time to serve their normally very good food. There are soooooo many other restaurants now in the area, they can't afford to take short cuts with their food!
