We’re new to Tampa and we happen to stumble upon this restaurant. We’ve gone 3x now the food is really great and we like sitting outside. The outside is very charming. However tonight I went to the hostess stand which was outside today with 2 girls and checked me and my husband in. I saw her look at her paper list check us off and then she sat us. I just get now a very annoying email from open table telling me I wasn’t at my reservation and I won’t be able to use open table if I miss restaurant reservations and I now have to explain myself to open table. I love dinning out and use open table often very annoyed I have to waste my time filling this out when there was not 1 but 2 girls to check us in! Also, there is a gentlemen that works there looks like a manager wears a hat all the time. He goes to his regulars table all the time to see how their meals are I’ve observed this 3x we’ve been there but yet never comes to our table to see how we’re doing. All customers should be treated the same they’re all spending money there!
