I got dressed up and walked over there. My table was ready on time; it was in the lounge area of the restaurant. They offered me the table or said I could sit at the bar. I opted to sit at the bar. The bar was almost full but people were leaving. Apparently people eat early there. The bartender was swamped but smiled and got me a glass of water. Soon I had menus. I like that they have a regular menu as well as a specials menu, including the usual cocktails and some special cocktails. I ordered the conquest, which seemed like a twist on an old fashioned. They offered bread or focaccia bread, I declined. And heads up- bread service is not included. It's an up charge. Normally I don't care but I was having dessert, not bread. I had the halibut special. It was phenomenal. One of the guys from the kitchen dropped it off and asked if I needed anything'- I replied salt. I find that I need salt often at restaurants. They brought the salt out real fast! I had a bite and determined it didn't need any more salt- it was perfectly salted! Woohoo! Fantastic. I ate my whole dish and then I savored my cocktail. The bartender wasn't much for conversation , as she was very busy, alone, covering the entire bar and drinks for the whole restaurant. She did invite me to try dessert, and mentioned a coconut cream cake that was not on the menu. I agreed to it and it was heavenly. Seemed like cheesecake icing with fluffy layers of cake and subtle coconut flakes throughout. The chocolate ice cream was weird at first but then I realized it's like almond joy/ mounds - coconut and chocolate are often paired. The espresso crumble gave it a nice crunch and there was caramel all over the plate. Wow! I took the majority of the cake home. It was a large portion and indulgent. I paid my tab and finished my drink. I was not rushed. I would go back again. It's a bit pricey. The fish special was $58. The cocktail was $17 and the dessert was $16. So one person, who did not add on the bread service, was $91. It's expensive. I would emphasize you can probably get a seat at the bar if you can't get a reservation. Also- the entrance is hard to find. It's in the parking lot and not facing the main road. I got a little lost walking there. The signage is poor. I can't imagine going there the first time in the dark. So give yourself a couple extra minutes if it's your first time going there.

Wednesday CCGF LUNCH THE PERFECT CAPER…read more The Perfect Caper was more than perfect!

I did not have high expectations but I will say I did enjoy chicken salad chick! We ordered two chicken salads (kickin' Kay Lynne, jalapeño holly) with two sides pasta salad and the grape. It was super light and was a very light pleasant meal. The grape salad is to die for truly delicious and the pasta salad is your average cold pasta salad. Along with the a sandwich with buffalo barclay and two sides the broccoli salad along with fresh fruits. The fruits were fresh no complaints and the broccoli salad was also very nice. In my opinion the star of the show was the loaded potato soup, it tastes very similar to clam chowder and is truly amazing. I wish I lived closer to chicken salad chick because it is so good!

We asked for indoors to get my 89 year old friend and 3 other seniors out of the heat. We stood inside a bit No where to rest to get seated. They finally took us to a table. We were exhausted and hot. Waited 20 minutes no one came to our table to offer us drinks and welcome us. So one of us went to find someone. The manager came and took our drink orders mostly water on ice and had to wait on that . Manager also took our orders but was 50 minutes to get our food. We got lots of appetizers and meals and had to ask for utensils to eat . Our waiter didn't check with us. And we kinda took care of ourselves then had to run someone down to get our bill.. Only thing good was they sang to my 89 year old friend for her birthday.. we were by the door so it didn't cool off much . Mostly younger people that seam to be having a good time. . We even had to ask for utensils after the food came and they were walking away. After the meal we had to chase down our bill cause not much attention to our table. . We were sitting by a hot open door with lots of traffic and a wheelchair. If this in non season I would hate to come in season.

The atmosphere was your typical Florida bar restaurant theme, it's what one would expect. We ordered wings, big strawberry salad, loaded fried cauliflower, grouper, and a chicken breast sandwich minus the bread. The chicken was tender and good, the wings were not the best but ok, the cauliflower app was all around tasty and worth it, and the fish was pretty decent for a brewhouse. Overall for this type of restaurant I think the food was good. Compared to other restaurants I've been to that are similar to this it's decent quality.

By the time we arrived and checked in going out of the hotel for dinner was not appealing. I had looked online at all the dinning options and the Harbor Yard was the perfect vibe. Casual and lots of options. When we entered the Yard we were really impressed with the spacious layout and lovely decor. Everything was super clean and all the employees were super friendly and helpful. My husband made a bee line for the pizza bc that's his fav. He ordered 2-12" pies both with pepperoni, mushrooms & meatballs. He wanted one for the room to snack on later. The woman who took our order was very helpful and friendly. This review is in NO way a reflection of her service. Unfortunately, it's the pizza itself that let us down. I did sample a slice of his pizza and here is the feedback: Cheese-Mix of shredded blend & I'm guessing round slices of mozzarella. Plentiful amount of cheese. Sauce- Just ok. Toppings-Decent amount of pepperoni, meatballs but very few mushrooms. Meatballs were the highlight Crust- Like cardboard. I mean we weren't expecting to be blown away but it was difficult to even cut the slices apart. When we tried 1/4 of the cheese and topping stayed glued to the rest of the pie. It was really thin crust which we both prefer but it was super hard and lacking any flavor. We were crazy hungry so it did its job of filling us up but and our service was wonderful. That's about all the positive honest feedback back I can share. With so many other options, we wouldn't come back for Arezzo.
