    Brunch menu
    Always L.

    I visited this establishment on January 5th for brunch. Upon arrival it was a bit awkward because there was a guy mopping and staff seemed surprised to see us. Please note, we had a 12:45pm reservation and they were still surprised we were there. The restaurant was pretty much empty when we arrived. There were only 2 other customers sitting inside. I know they have only been open for a few months so I am giving them the benefit of doubt. For brunch I found it to be a bit boring at first but things livened up around 3:30pm. If I do return I will try a different day of the week. I'm not sure if Sunday was just an off day for them but while I was there the restaurant never got full. As far as the food it was good overall, I was disappointed in the waffles though. The mimosa tower was good, you get to choose orange or pineapple juice. The bartender actually made ours a pineapple passion and I enjoyed it. Gratuity is automatically added to your bill (18%). Service was ok, the server was nice and did her job. There is a few parking spaces in front of the restaurant but you will be better off parking in the garage (Van Buren Garage).

    Great Dj, some friendly bar staff. But PSA tip is included and staff will not show you your itemize bill and some are rude. So just know you don't have to tip extra if service is not impeccable.

    First off the drinks are way too pricey for the quality. My friend ordered an apple Martini and it looks like water. I ordered a lemon drop Martini and it not only didn't taste like a lemon drop Martini, but there's no garnish or sugar rim. I only ordered one. So while sitting at the bar, we were joined by a six legged pest(a roach) which my friend finally stepped on it. By this time, I was ready to cancel my food order. When the food arrived, I ordered was supposed to be jerk chicken wings, but it wasn't Jamaican jerk, it's more like barbecue with hot sauce. My friend ordered tacos, since it's taco Tuesday, she ordered beef and they brought her chicken. Sent it back. Now about the service, it leaves a lot to be desired. As I watched them make other drinks they have all the necessary ingredients, but the bartender skills are sorely lacking. They put garnish on some of the drinks. Also if they spent more time serving the customers instead of smoking the hookah, maybe they could get it right. Also my other friend ordered a strawberry margarita and what they served was an imitation mojito with green leaves . The best thing I could say about this place is it looks really nice and the drama was kicking it with the music. But with that being said, I will not be coming back again. I miss Ginger Bay. I don't think this place will last long unless they make some serious changes. But my friend said her tacos were good when she got the right one. Also if you're going to serve food at least invest in regular napkins besides cocktail napkins. Also they automatically tip themselves 18%. So I definitely advise, think first before visiting or just come for the music. This was a Tuesday so I don't know if there is a cover charge on weekends. Added note: when you get your bill, there's an additional charge to pay other than cash and they short you on the change. I was supposed to get $7.50 change and she only gave back 7 dollars . When I asked for my change, she threw it back on the counter, same with my friend. It's sad because I normally tip 20% and extra if the service warrants. Not here. w

    I don't know who I love more. Every time I come back the service just gets better and better. This time TT and the owner with the brown eyes took care of me. Everything was on point and everyone was so attentive. Making sure I was okay.

    Ducked in to eyeball the spot because it is brand spanking new and is in my AOR and I run a food…read moretour operation in the neighborhood (both Hollywood Florida Food Tour and Atlantic Village Food Tour) and wanted to eval this spot as a possible addition to my amazing line-up. The spot had only been open a week when me and my buddy Disco Mike ducked in to check out the food and drinks. So we started with some Espresso Martinis and they were perfectly made and balanced, well done Limarys! We also enjoyed some complimentary Chicharones. Classy. See pics. We rocked out to the musician who was playing and really, really enjoyed the overall aesthetic of the place. They spared no expense in décor and design and acoustics. The bartop is amazing, all new glassware, they have their own chef and kitchen separate of the casino. It is really a high class spot and I should probably gatekeep it, but I'll see you there. Excellent service, appropriate pricing, classy vibe. And if you're a foodie check out my food tour business. South Florida Food Tour. Thank me later, booyah. See you at the Spell, Cabeza OUT!

The location itself is truly unique, and the carousel bar was the most amazing feature it really stood out. The venue was decorated with festive Christmas decor, including giant ornaments, which added to the atmosphere. The staff was super nice! We enjoyed a delicious drink, and the book event was super cute and well-decorated, set up to the right side of the building. Behind the book fair, I was surprised to see a horse race in progress watching the beautiful horses was a highlight I didn't expect. There were multiple food stations throughout Carousel Club, so it's a great place to get together with friends, try food from different vendors, and enjoy drinks in a lively, memorable setting.

The entrance is a zen-like pathway lined with a green canopy of palm trees. We walked into a very spacious outdoor area. There were comfortable padded lounge chairs spread throughout the space. To access these, a reservation or purchase of a hookah is needed. We headed straight to the bar to find out they do not have a traditional cocktail menu. We were told by the bartender, that she'd be able to make simple cocktails if needed. I do think that they are loosing a good opportunity to stand out with creative carousel themed cocktails. This is also a no cash bar. As we're sipping our simple gin and tonic's, looking around we noticed the games scattered around the area. There were a few table tennis and paddle games. I must comment on DJ who was spinning this night. He had such a wide range of music! From r&b, Latin, dancehall, pop, he had everyone on their feet dancing. The atmosphere is very chill, breezy and relaxing. Will be returning!

The interior and decor is very clean and captivating. Creating the perfect environment to enjoy a nice meal or drink. The cocktail menu was very impressive! While I didn't have a drink, seeing their cocktail menu was enough to know I had to come back for drinks. Started off with a single shot of espresso and a Cortado. The coffee was good and the custom glass wear it was served in made for an elevated coffee experience. After browsing the menu, the Shakshuka called my name! The perfect bowl of tomato sauce with peppers and onions. The spices were fragrant and created a very balanced dish and of course the eggs were perfectly cooked and runny when you break into them. After a savory breakfast the sweet tooth kicked in. Our server suggested the cheesecake that came with a table side pour of chocolate. The only downside to this dessert was I didn't want to share it lol I would literally come back here just for that cheesecake it was that freaking good. Overall Thanks To Harrison's beautiful environment, great tasting coffee, and unique European Fusion Cuisine brings unique flavors to Hollywood that is worth traveling for. I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.
