    Bread was good
    John H.

    Visited here tonight, it was a great experience. I had the salmon from the specials menu (it was over squash with rice and green beans), throughly enjoyed it. The service was good, bo complaints. It's a comfortable pub atmosphere. I do recommend you try this place.

    Husband made reservations for our three year anniversary. I've passed this place so many times and never been in. It's very small and intimate with a wall in the middle so it does break up the room. We were seated by the window, which was a perfect people watching spot. Our waitress was so sweet and knowledgeable. We started off with a dirty martini and an old-fashioned. No complaints, were made just right. Appetizers consist of a side of bread and we ordered conch cakes. Bread- I love the fact the butter was melted to spread a lot easier, and it had a side of oil to dip in. 10/10 Conch cakes- came with two very large cakes. The sauce on top completed this dish, hands-down. Great flavor, gray texture, overall great starter dish. 10/10 Seafood pasta- the waitress lit up when I ordered this dish since she says it's her favorite. That is always a good sign. The dish has a variety of different seafood and also sausage. Good size portion, great flavor, and just overall great combination. 9/10 Crab stuffed shrimp- my husband very much enjoyed this dish. Shrimp and crab is always a good combination. 9/10 Overall, this was a great choice that my husband picked to spend our three year anniversary at.

    Great soup

    This quickly became our favorite Saturday date night spot. The hostess Keira greets you with a beautiful smile and is sweet as can be, bartenders are amazing and make all drinks to perfection, staff is so helpful and pleasant. Food and drinks are always on point. Everything I have had is amazing. And they always make you feel welcomed.

    What a fun place, I'll be honest we were strolling in downtown Florida saw the name and said, hey, that sounds cool, let's check them out. We sat at the bar and made it for happy hour (which is a treat for a transplant Hoosier like me, since we are not allowed drink happy hours) The staff was very welcoming, I ended up having a lemon drop basil martini, that was refreshing, sweet and delicious. To eat I split an order of fresh and tasty calamari, I was impressed by how well it was cooked and seasoned. Can't wait to get here again when I am back in Florida, check this location out if you have the chance!

    Food was mostly fried, without taste. Won't be back again. Service, tried, but I don't think they really wanted to be there.

    We found Fin and Flame on a whim as we actually had a reservation next-door at Palm City Social- I…read morewas perusing their menu as we were seeking a parking spot and it didn't take me a few minutes to decide that we should try Fin and Flame instead this evening after a long afternoon of Christmas shopping! They have a fabulous happy hour, and I have to say the appetizers we enjoyed were fabulous! The wild shrimp and crab mac & cheese is actually priceless- rich creamy crunchy shrimp! The two of us could not finish it and also had the seared Ahi tuna- the law that comes with the tuna is a showstopper. The dish itself had to take a backseat, which is sad when the tuna should've been the star but also says a lot about that slaw. The one thing we will be back for is the oysters we did the flame combo, which was the oysters Rockefeller, and the roasted oysters and probably would've licked the shells if it had been appropriate! They were absolutely delicious! I can't forget to mention our service as it was fabulous, and I made sure to tip on the full amount not the discounted amount from happy hour as it was very well deserved ! We will definitely return next time we're down in Palm City!!!!! Sorry we ate so fast. We didn't get any great pictures, but everything came out plated beautifully.

The bartender Bowin was great but the owner that was talking down to him was absolutely appalling. First thing I heard across the bar before taking my drink order "I heard you're wanting to serve here and it's not gonna happen" which shocked me because where I come from if you have a correction to make with an employee take it up in the office, not in the public eye. I'm visiting and wanted a nice happy hour experience but let me say I'm never happy seeing workers mistreated like that. I was polite enough to wait until the end of my meal to speak with the owner, Ron, and he was very dismissive. He said the following "it's not that deep, you don't know the full story, etc." which absolutely true I don't know the full story but I don't need to. Actions speak louder than words. The way he treated him I would never support someone like that and first impressions are everything so shame on him. I stayed because I wanted to give Bowin a good tip and ensure I take this up with the owner before leaving instead of leaving a review. Here we are, I'm leaving a review because hospitality is very important in 2 sectors: 1) the way you feel; 2) the experience. I give a singular star for Bowin's great service as well as Celine's but Ron, the owner, doesn't deserve anyone's money for the way he treats his employees. I've never left a review like this but there's a first for everything. I do not recommend this establishment but if you do go please sit at the bar with Bowin or Celine because they deserve a good tip to take home. I support them but not this establishment or Ron. The way you treat your employees is the way they will treat your customers. I will also not be dismissed by someone like this. At first I wasn't going to say anything because I'm on vacation but I will not stand for this nor support this.

    Wish I knew about this when I moved to the area! Great place to bring a group of friends or stop in…read morefor a quick drink. Bartenders were super friendly as well and gave a nice walkthrough of what they had to offer on the menu as well. The food service is rather limited but still available as you can read in other reviews but I believe they allow outside food but also check with them first to be respectful of course. Other than that I'm definitely adding this to my place to bring my friends and family when they visit Stuart.

    **INITIAL REVIEW**…read more Initially, I found Frazier Creek Brewing and Distilling (which I will shorthand simply to Frazier Creek for the remainder of this review) through my adventuring, specifically the Treasure Coast Wine, Ale & Spirits Trail. Though not the first brewery in Martin County, it is the first "brewstillery" in which it serves as both a brewery and distillery. Wanting to check in at another location on the aforementioned trail, I have to say this place is pretty good, but since I went early afternoon (I work 3rd shift at the time), it isn't exactly the most active place to be at. And to be fair, the same goes for the other brewery I went to at this time (Ocean Republic). Ergo, this initial review will be based on a visit between noontime and 3 p.m. In short, too early to be at a brewery, but the only time I could go because of my working shift. Though an address is provided, Frazier Creek is located in Mayfair Plaza on US-1 (Federal Hwy.). If it helps, it is the business that seems to have a "watchtower" rising up from its entrance like a sentinal. Upon entering, you're greeted to a nice open space that hints this place was probably an extreme sporting goods vendor or business in its past. Why I say that? Because of all the decks on the wall used to highlight Frazier Creek's drink menu. I sat at the bar which was optimally observed by the cute bartender, and I understand why it was minimal as it was, as aforementioned, "too early to be in a brewery" and there were like only one or two more patrons inside besides me. Nevertheless, the bartender was attentive and gave me drinks based on how I was feeling at the time as well as the fact it was still early afternoon. So for me, lighter beers. I would not drink a heavy stout or IPA this "early" in the day. What I did have were three drinks they always have on tap, two alcoholic so I had them in 4 oz. tasters and one that was non-alcoholic so I had a regular 8 oz. glass. Must stress I was hitting up the locales in the Treasure Coast Wine, Spirit & Ale trail in Martin County so I can't get all happy at ONE location, right? I had the Stuart Shandy and Zero Gravity Sour in the 4 oz. tasters. The former had more of the grapefruit flavor over the lemonade flavor, but it was delightfully sour. As for the latter, I enjoyed that one more because I prefer oranges as my citrus of choice. And to "fill in the gap" without having too much alcohol since I would be drinking mead next (Hani Honey Co.), I had their root beer, too. That was good too, but I am more of a cream soda kind of guy, and since sugar is in everything, I have a thing for Olipop, Virgil's, and Poppi flavors. So far, not one brewery has made a sugar free root beer (yet). As for the last part of food and drink, there was no formal food menu I saw, but they did have either a collaboration or something "in house" outside of the actual brewery and distillery was served for food: fish dip. There were two versions I got, and I ate one with Ritz crackers at the bar. Fantastic. Definitely home made and independent given the price point, but I am more than willing to pay to help support it. As for the other dip, it was good too once I opened and finished it back home. On a sidenote, the restrooms - at least the men's restroom - was decently clean and stocked. Nothing out of the norm. Given the fact I showed up during a time I don't expect the full service and experience Frazier Creek has to offer, I can only rate my visit(s) for what they offer at the time I went which is three out of five stars. Now I must stress that is actually not bad as they hit all the main points on serving a customer during a time when they are "down" and "slow." I don't expect them, or any brewery/distillery/meadery/etc. to bend over backwards for me when I show up at 1 p.m. on a weekday. But I will also say that for many places, doing just the basics is a chore during that time, so the fact Frazier Creek did, I applaud you all. Now that I am working a normal schedule, I can truly come by during your peak hours and see what Frazier Creek has to offer. I did see they were preparing for a cornhole tournament when I left, and I would have loved to stay to smash the competition, but a las, responsibilities over pleasure when in the midst of a workweek. If Frazier Creek is consistent with what they provided during the early afternoon, plus whatever they do during their peak hours, I'll definitely update this review.
