There was live music there that was nice. If you like kitschy retro stuff, you will enjoy this. They had damn good avocado toast for $4... boba horchata drink was $5 ( I'd say it was 32oz. Huge). Outside the booths were nicely priced. There is a bldg next door that sold cute retro old stuff ... pricy af. But the fair had a unite a friendly cheerful group of vendors. Someone selling cute art stationary, Honey booth , The Darling Market sold some attractive clothing (new/modern) . A gentleman there sold lovely wooden kitchen spoons. The retro booths had the best nicest retro clothes . Such colors and styles. Very cool. Also sold retro basket handbags, retro sugar/flower containers, precious little vases that made me giddy. (Pardon me!) generally speaking there wasn't much for guys here except some grub & bevs & music. 35 minutes well spent.

Still thinking about the wild mushroom appetzier in a crispy frico type parmesan basket. Had this for the first time and absolutely loved it. All four of us were very happy with our entrees, the features of the night: homemade gnocchi and the seafood pasta special, as well as the lasagna, and the homemade taglioni with sausage, spinach and olive oil. As a former restaurant owner, I can truly appreciate the labor of love that chef Dino puts forth each day, delivering freshly prepared, delicious food. Marcello's and Sardinia, our go to restaurants for a wonderful dining experience and delicious food that brings back memories!

She took us to three super cute locations: Patrick's 1481, Bevardi's Salute, and Brick's, and we finished with a gelato spot! All the staff at each location were really sweet, except for the hostess at the first place. But overall, the experience was still so good. We had drinks at all three spots, but my favorite was definitely the watermelon lemonade at Brick's. It even comes with a watermelon garnish At first they were out, but our sweet server Gerald made it happen for me, and I really appreciated that. After that, Susan went out of her way to show us a speakeasy around the corner from the gelato place. It wasn't even included in the tour, she just did it to be nice because she could tell my boyfriend used to be a really great bartender, which made it feel extra special. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would 100% come again!

Truth be told this is not our first dining experience at flavio's we've been here a couple times…read morebefore. Siesta key when it is very busy can accommodate a lot of people in this restaurant certainly the last time we were here was very busy and we had a great experience but this time we went during the off-season and we were able to walk right in and sit at the bar. The house we rented came at the golf cart so we drove that and the valet didn't even want to park it he said just put it here LOL My wife and I split a bottle of wine and also a caesar salad. They do bring out some bread but I didn't want to fill up on bread. As you can see in the photos I did get a pasta bolognese it is very easy to screw this up but it's also a standard that restaurant should be able to replicate with ease and this was fantastic. My wife got the lobster ravioli maybe her eyes were bigger than her stomach but she was not able to finish this masterpiece. I took a moment to enjoy the sunset from their front door of flavio's my daughter corrected me and telling me that this was golden hour and it truly was golden with my hunger satiated two glasses of wine and me and a beautiful evening flavio's certainly delivered and of course we will return!

OH MY GOODNESS, where has this ice cream and fudge been all my life?!…read more I think it's an East Coast company, but California needs one of these ASAP. I stopped in late Wednesday night and sampled some of their fudge. It was absolutely amazing. Heavenly Slice Fudge truly lived up to its name. I also tried a sample of their Caramel Sea Salt ice cream, and it was a 10/10. Ultimately, I chose not to buy anything that night since I hadn't eaten dinner yet, but I knew for sure I was coming back the next day. On Thursday night, I brought all my coworkers with me since we were in town for a work trip. I ordered a waffle bowl with a scoop of the Caramel Sea Salt Chocolate ice cream, and it did not disappoint. I usually end my reviews by saying, "If I'm ever in the area again, I'll be back." For this place, I WILL be back--even if that means taking myself to the area just to get more ice cream.

BLUF: Good ice cream in St. Armands circle and even better when it's not crowded…read more Yes, I like Kilwins ice cream and I love it when I don't have to find a parking spot or wait in line. This Kilwins is located in St. Armand's Circle. Given that, parking can be tricky and lines can be long. Conveniently, this Kilwins was in walking distance to my hotel on a recent stay in Lido Key so I was sure to stop by for a scoop. Also, I am glad to see Kilwins was able to renovate and recover after back-to-back Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton hit the area. I wouldn't drive to St. Armands Circle and fight parking just for Kilwins but if in the area and craving a sweet treat, Kilwins has visitors covered with ice cream, fudge and candy.
