Friends rave about this place. I finally had a chance to go. I called because open table has zero…read moreavailability. The hostess answered and she told me I could have a table for one at 7:15! Ok! 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.

We were over 30 ladies and our servers Zak & Tabby were superb in getting everything our ladies desired for lunch! We celebrated Mel o dy's March birthday ! And we had a few new comers join us. There was 3 booths and two large tables, and everyone was comfortable, and the conversations commenced. It is always a special place for our Charlotte County Girlfriends, Wednesday group. Food, ambiance and atmosphere top notch! We will be back for lunch, again very soon!

Super cute and lots of outdoor seating to eat it at.

Very comfortable, they have soft couch like chairs, large tables for studying areas, and high tops. This is by far the best hummus I've ever had. The service is always immaculate. We drove one day just so i could get hummus and he was out, however, he went out of his way and offered to make us a batch. Top shelf service! They have a variety of foods from international plates to even a good chicken salad sandwich. Their desserts are always amazing! Get the Nutella dessert :). They also have all types of drinks, cappuccinos, coffees, etc. Great place to come relax, study or just have a great lunch.

Lots of seating and power outlets though I found their wifi to be a bit on the slow side. Which was fine for today's use but if you're looking for an alternative office, might not work for you. The barista wasn't sure what a cortado is but after I explained, she did a pretty valiant effort. Tasty coffee that was more like a flat white. A little strong for this late in the morning but great for sipping while I worked out my next stops. [Review 1574 of 2025 - 2155 in Florida - 25124 overall]
