They closed two days before our reservation and we received no notice. Bonefish Grill was really good though.

We made reservations for dinner with my mom and when we arrived they informed us they decided to close early due to staffing issues.

We went to LemonShark for my birthday and I was super excited for the grill at the table experience. It turns out my birthday was a horrible day for the restaurant because they were short staffed and out of a lot of menu items. Our reservation had to be moved 3 hours earlier, but the open honesty and communication from the management and waitstaff made this entire experience a great one. Samantha and Marquita were very sweet about the whole situation, and knowing what we were walking into, we still had an amazing time. While we did not get to grill at the table Marquita took us on a literal tour of the menu and made us excited to come back again later. The food we were able to order was delicious, and we are more than ready to hit up LemonShark again for our next date night! My husband and I raved that this could have been a pretty bad experience, but the open honesty from the staff, and their ability to roll with the punches made this a place we are happy to return to when they have their A-game on!

This was my 2nd time eating here and absolutely loved it. The drinks were great, the food was phenomenal. And our waitress was quick and courteous and patient with explaining certain menu items. A great place and we will definitely be visiting again!

This is my second time visiting the restaurant and both dining experiences have been incredible. The food and drinks were great, as well as the service & ambiance. LemonShark has easily become on of my favorite restaurants.

We was the second group to enter the restaurant when they opened and was there for over an hour. We got our appetizers quickly then waited for our food for 45 minutes. Around 15 other groups came in while we waited and got their food before we did. During that time our waitress got us refills once. We sat with empty glasses and no food for way too long. When we finally got our food only one plate was hot and the other 3 was cold. Also my steak was so over cooked it was hard to chew. We won’t be going back.

They couldn’t find the reservation. After finally being seated and ordering the food came out in the wrong order and was cold. Terrible experience for our valentines dinner.
