I had the special tonight. Pan seared very large scallops in a lemon butter sauce over risotto with spinach and tomato. It was absolutely delicious and as good as any dish I have had in very expensive restaurants. What I love about this place is that there is something for everyone. You can have a gourmet meal or a hamburger and fries. Service is great!

Relatives in from out of town. Dinner for five. Comfort food after a long day. Large portions, everyone raved about the food. The winner at our table was the tuna salad, large chunks of tuna and lots of avocado ?.

I ordered the double butter glazed pork chop and asked for it to be cooked medium. It was done perfectly and was so delicious! My husband had the white bean soup and a Reuben sandwich. He thought the soup was fantastic and could only finish 1/2 of the sandwich.Parking: Lots of parking available when not an event day.

The food is excellent! The menu offers so many different things, sure to satisfy whatever your group is craving. Just need bigger highchairs, my 2 year old granddaughter couldn't tuck her legs into the chair and she isn't that big.

the waiter first forgot to serve the sauce that was included with the meal, and when he did bring it after being reminded, it was very stale. The account to pay was $33, I gave her $50 in cash and he didn't bring the change... I didn't say anything that he shouldn't give it to her... I think he assumed it was his tip.. After some time, I reminded myself, so he returned the rest, but I was left in disgust... more I won't go there... after this incident I didn't feel like leaving any tip, but I left two dollars on principle...

Beware of coleslaw found Corner plastic piece of a bag inside my coleslaw.I ordered carry out fish dinner with fries and coleslaw. I was eating the coleslaw and 1 pc of coleslaw I thought I could not get chewed up I took it out of mouth and it was a piece of plastic a whole corner pc of a plastic bag inside the coleslaw if I would have swallowed that it could have cut my insides for that matter. I called and told the restaurant manager to let them know they may want to be aware of that batch that day they made he was apologetic. Then stupidly I went back a week later ordered another carryout and was telling the person behind the bar yeah I ordered last week and I got if piece of a plastic in my coleslaw I couldn't believe it and he said oh mistakes happen good thing you didn't swallow it. Really mistakes happen first of all you're running a restaurant on top of that the owner was sitting right in front of me and did not say a word. Then my meal came out and i checked it one of the sandwiches was made wrong I said that it was and I didn't hear him saying they were making another one and the owner rudely goes didn't you hear he is fixing another one rudely very very rudely for a owner of a business not acceptable. I'm the customer not someone you can bully. Should of said I'm sorry about that let me fix you another one.I should of learned from the first time and not went back inexperienced cooks won't go back again not a way to run a business foreign objects in your food and rude owner.. ?

In my search for italian cuisine, we visited Cafe AL Frasco at Dunedin FL. To our surprise, the menu was diverse and had Thao food, curry, and other well-known American dishes. My fiancee had the curry chicken, and it had him sweating. I ordered the crabcakes and sweat potato fries, and my friend had the pomodoro pasta with chicken. We all had something very different, and it all was flavorful and very fresh. Portions are big. They also had a nice variety of desserts that included pies, cakes, and boozy ice cream. The service was great, and our server explained everything well. She even used a tablet to show the dessert choices. If you are in the area, this is a nice place to go.

My family was visiting from out of town and me and my husband were the first to arrive to give the restaraunt a heads up a party of 8 were coming and that most of the party was parking. Craig then started to move 2 tables together and my husband helped him turn one of the tables as he seemed in a off mood. Within 1.5 minutes I got a call from one of the members asking if we can move the time an hour back so I immediately hung up and told Craig who had not even sat anything on the table nor had we sat down yet and got an immediately attitude snapping back saying that I thought you said the party was here!! He then started shaking his head and pulling the table apart aggressively. I apologized for the miscommunication and change of plans and asked if there was a problem? He kept huffing and shaking his head and said now I have to pull the tables apart. I then asked him if it would make him feel better if I helped him moved the tables although I'm pregnant since it seemed like a huge issue to him.. other patrons were shocked and looking at him as he yelled No you are fine! Repeatedly... I truly don't understand the complete lack of respect given to me when I told him within 2 minutes of the change without the restaraunt even being full. What needs to be understood is owning a restaraunt you are in a service industry. There is NO service or respect given and being treated like trash by Craig should not be accepted by whoever owns this restaraunt. Our party decided to choose another restaraunt that night and will not be back. We will also share our experience with others. Truly disgusted by how we were treated, Craig should be talked to or fired.
