    Just opened! Menu.

    Why 5 stars? Bringing real BBQ back to Safety Harbor, great outside area and nice crafted cocktails. Was driving by on a Saturday night as I was waiting for this place to open for a while. To my surprise I rolled up in my golf cart and the patio was packed! My son and I got a table out back and ordered a few things. We ended up sharing a 3 meat platter with pulled pork, chicken and sausage. All 3 were amazing. The sides we chose were the beans and potato wedges which were perfectly crispy and delicious. I was super impressed that on day 1 of a soft opening that everything came out great, service was good and everyone around seemed happy. I only can imagine after they get their groove on a bit that this place will get better and better over time. Our server Ted was amazing and was very attentive and busy! Inside they ended up replacing the old bar that was in there in favor of an along the wall style with plenty of chairs. Additionally I would think eventually they will have some inside tables as well. Restaurant wasn't all the way together yet but I'm not going to fault them for anything as it was a soft opening. All in all this is a 5 star review for a much needed BBQ place that also has a hint of BBQ places that were in the Harbor before and can't wait to see how this place does! Thank you United Smokehouse!

    Pick 2 - pulled pork and brisket, with Brussel spouts/bok choy and truffle mac

    Good food and atmosphere. We enjoyed the bbq and would absolutely come back again. The brisket was perfect.

    Saw this place advertised online and really wanted to love it. Very close to our house and we love going to Safety Harbor. Parking was easy which was a plus. Lots of room outside however it was raining and hot out. Inside very small. Six tables in the main dining area. We decided to go to the bar. Also small. No decor nothing on the walls and it's a hot 81° inside. No domestic drafts. Ordered a couple of cans of Coors light $5 each. Next we headed to a table to eat. There are fans in the dining area which made it a little bit cooler and it was not crowded so that also helped. I got the wings. They were pretty big however inside very dry. No blue cheese very disappointed. I really wanted them to have homemade blue cheese to go with it and maybe some carrots and celery. I got nothing. They do have this barbecue sauce you can dip it in but I did not care for it. My husband got the ribs platter. I will say the ribs were very good solid four stars. Really wish they had cornbread too as a side. They have beans, potato wedges, and collard greens. My husband's sides were the wedges and beans. The potato wedges there were four I think you could be a little bit more generous but they were good. Overall definitely a three star experience. Might come back when the weather is cooler and have a drink outside and maybe try the peach cobbler.

    Good food and live music.

    Poor excuse for a BBQ restaurant. Must have friends rate them or something. Make sure you pay attention to their mandatory 20% tip policy.

    We finally checked out The Kitchen and it was a total hit! First and foremost, the food was…read moreabsolutely awesome. I highly recommend the brussels sprouts appetizer, everyone in our party loved them. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. To top it off, the waitstaff was absolutely fantastic. They were funny, engaging, and really made the whole experience feel special. Be sure to read through some of the notes written in the "guest book" you get when signing your check! The space is pretty small, so you'll probably need reservations to snag a spot. It's also very fairly priced for the quality you're getting.

I remembered this spot from when it was Green Springs. This bistro is terrific - it has the perfect mix of options for brunch. Would look forward to trying it for dinner. The food was still great and the service was fast and friendly. We didn't over indulge. We just enjoyed a Fried Green Tomato BLT and BLT Benedict - crispy potatoes on the side were divine. Love the setting of the restaurant - it's in a repurposed bungalow. We also sat in the front of the restaurant - it's bright and cheery and quiet - would definitely recommend this spot if you can snag it. The atmosphere in other parts of the restaurant are cozy too - but this spot feels very quiet, even though it's upfront and next to the front door. Would love to come back for another visit. Bonus is getting to visit the market on Sunday right afterwards!

They have tasting machines, which they stock about 20 different wines available for a "sip" (1 ounce pour), a 2oz and glass pour. They rotate these wines regularly and you get a card that you can put in the machine to pour it. Then you just pay on your tab after! We came for the Happy Hour which I believe was 25% off wines and some food items. It was fun to SIP on many different wine choices and sit outside. Such a lovely time!

My friend doesn't actually drink alcohol but thankfully they have a small list of mocktails and nonalcoholic drinks, and I know nothing about wines except that I usually only like roses, which thankfully they had a flight of! Emerson, our server, did a great job explaining the different notes of the rose options, and helping us pick a fourth cheese option as we were building our board. Now on to the charcuterie, what we really came here for. Delicious! The only thing we left any bit of was the complimentary crasins and a bit of the horseradish cheddar. We inhaled the Brie, regular goat cheese, and mustard & ale cheddar, plus the prosciutto and salami. It also came with figs and Carr's crackers; again we only left some crasins and the bit of horseradish cheese, everything else was phenomenal. I would come back in a heartbeat just for the BYOCB situation. We also checked out some of the truffle options, but ended up opting to try those some other time. The interior is intimate and cozy with black marble inspired tables and velveteen emerald seating. They also have a bar that seats maybe a dozen people plus a few outdoor tables. It also looked like there was a small room for groups or events possibly. Don't quote me on that though. Street parking is available right outside and all around on the nearby side streets.
