Over priced poor quality food and rude service sum up this restaurant. You'd think Dick Vitale would have better standards? We stay on Siesta Key 4-5 times a year. i have been to the Egg several times and have had consistently bad experiences. There are many better options on the key for sure, too ...
We had dinner with friends. I had the Fish Corvina. The Fish was not cooked, parts were raw. The grilled shrimp were cold when served. I told the server, she did not reduce the price or bring the manager. I would never eat there again. Its a small restaurant in a shady area.
I went in with my wife for lunch and to watch the football game on Sunday. I didn't realize they broadcast every NFL game on Sunday. This place was way beyond what I was expecting. Not your average sports bar. This place had awesome food, especially the wings! The service was great and the Hote...
This is by far the best restaurant on Siesta Key and the best new thing for the island in the last 20 years. My family and friends have been coming to the Key for 20 years and have had pretty much endured the Broken Egg and Village Cafe while there, the Garden flies at a different level. The food i...
the food was fantastic
I have been going to this bar for last ten years. It is a local place especially for hospitality employees. Sean is the best bartender in town. He is a big reason why I still continue to go to the bar. Food is really good for bar food.
I cannot believe there is no review on Solorzano's!!!! I heard of it through word of mouth.The family that owns it make you feel like you are Family too. It is small romantic the food is AMAZING and My husband and I love it so.
We've been enjoying Mona Lisa for the past year or so and wish we'd known about it sooner. The two owners make this a special spot-very warm, friendly and DELICIOUS.

We took our friends to dinner earlier this year and we all thought the food was absolutely terrific. The owners are friendly and courteous and eager to please. The Sangria was delicious too. We might have liked a more extensive wine list, but that would be our only complaint (don't even want to c...
I was completely surprised by how exceptional the food was - I am from New York City and I was visiting and expected very little. To my surprise, the food, service and overall dining experience was wonderful. I will be back the next time I am in town!
Food was delicious, staff very helpful and friendly. We will go back and recommend it highly to those we know.

we've been eating at Phillippi Creek for years, lately the prices are up and the quality of the food is down, last two times I was very dissatisfied, clean up is so fast sometimes you're not finished eating just resting in between, the parking is a major issue, especially during peak season, there a...
Geckos on Clark Rd. disappointed me because steak burrito was extremely fatty. Unfortunately I waited till now to complain.
Broccolini's is a fine example of what a little neighborhood Italian restaurant should be. Small, intimate, nice enough for a special occasion, but not too fussy. Perfect any night of the week. And the food.... consistently fabulous. If you can't see what you have a taste for on the menu (odd,...
Good food cheap. The price of this pizza buffet definitely can't be beat. The pizza is much much better than any of the similar pizza buffets in the area, and better than most of the other pizza places in the area. The ambience is nice. The place has a cozy family atmosphere. Everything is ...
The waiter at the next table over was joking to his customer about my pregnant wife. Something about eating the baby. He was so loud about it that people at other tables heard it as well. The assistant manager gave an awkward insincere apology.
Great fun place to go. Dave one of the managers is always there making sure everyone has fun. The food is awsome with really good prices.
This is a Cheers type bar. Where everyone knows your name. Good food and great prices.
Dad and I have been regulars at Shaner's for years! I can't get him to depart from his usual spaghetti and meatballs to try something different but he loves it. The chicken parmesan is my personal favorite and the pizza is always a winner. When the kids are invited, they love to sit and dine from...
Restaurant is over-rated and over priced. For the price you are better going to a restaurant with better ambience, service and better overall dining experience. CAUTION: The coupons available on line are a scam - don't get fooled..also, regardless of number of people dining, (2,4 or more) the res...
