    The smoked salmon tasted like it took a long bath in pickle brine or had a caper-dill-pickle overload. Not my jam if you like classic Nova lox. Everything else was delicious, so I'll be back... just ordering something different next time. Solid spot, minus one star for the surprise fermentation attack.

    This place has some pretty good food. Lots of gluten free options. The service is always great. It's a nice place to go for a start to our morning.

    My arrival at Abby's a half an hour early had me looking for a way to kill time. Brunchies was a couple doors down and I had not had breakfast yet. They opened at 7am. Located on N. Dale Mabry in a busy plaza with a 5 Guys, Starbucks and BBQ place, the plaza houses an interesting array of businesses. Me, I frequent Abby's. There was a diner vibe to the place. A counter dining option was to the left as you entered, a large wide open dining area in the middle as well as 2 separate meeting/dining rooms for groups off to the right. Kitchen at the back and most beverage options behind the dining counter. A well organized place but maybe a tad disheveled. An extensive menu with loads of treats was in fine print so bring your glasses. Lots of delectable options but I found that many basic combos were missing in several categories. They did have the "build your own" option but that makes your basic ham and cheese omelet more expensive. Of the four "go to" items I usually order, none were on the menu. I ended up ordering a cuban sandwich and a cup of coffee, $12 and $5. The cuban came with a side. She offered potatoes but I declined and she then listed the other options. I got a salad. The cuban was small and the taste while good was greasy and not tradionional. If I had to describe, I would say the salami tasted like a sharp pepperoni. I ate my salad, drank my coffee and ate half a sandwich. Took the rest home, it was dinner. My experience was tarnished at the end when I got my bill and with tip, was $27. I examined my bill and found I was charged $4 for my salad, my side item. That left me fuming. I paid the bill, did not complain. I blame the server who should have told me that a salad, which she listed as a side option, was an upcharge of $4. To me, that's dishonest. Reminds me of servers that do not tell you a 20% gratuity is part of the bill and watch you add another 20%. Not planning to go back. Things like that ruffle my feathers! Most reviewers have good things to say.

    Brunchies has a delightful warmth, a very family-friendly atmosphere that was pretty busy during the Sunday brunch rush. The menu presented a decent variety of options, from the menu items I had there could be some improvement. The short stack pancakes were dry for me, a touch of butter or more flavor could elevate the dish as well. The lavender lemonade had more of a syrupy taste. Adding a few lemons slices improved the overall drink, I would add more lemon and water to the drink to dilute teh syrup a little. My main I chose and enjoyed was the Eggs Bruncheros! I liked the nice crispy texture of the tortillas at the base. The toppings worked well together, overall a good dish. There is some room for improvement on the other meny items but overall an okay experience. If you are going for a classic and homey brunch experience with the fam this is for sure an option.

    Brunchies has a great selection of breakfast, brunch, lunch dishes, and beverages on their menu. They offer gluten-free options on their omelettes, some skillets, and other dishes when replacing regular bread with gluten-free bread. I ordered the Homemade Corned Beef Skillet with GF bread on the side. I would have liked to see GF pancakes on the menu, since it can be mundane and repetitive when eggs are the only gluten-friendly options available. Overall, I can see how Brunchies has become a staple in the community. They serve consistently good breakfast and brunch dishes, and I'll continue to come back. Maybe one day I'll see some GF pancakes on that menu...

    Very busy brunch spot. I suggest timing your meal early, if possible. I dined alone and waited only a few minutes before snagging a seat at the counter. Diner is clean. A little noisy during peak hours. I bring my AirPods. Was fortunate to be served once again by Miguel, a real pro. Ordered "deconstructed" Eggs Benedict: 2 eggs poached in a bowl with Hollandaise, 86 Canadian bacon, well-done home fries. Ordered toast OTS instead of traditional English muffins that always wind up chewy. Added crispy bacon OTS. Brought my own tea because I'm a tea snob. Breakfast was delicious. Service was smooth. I did not feel rushed despite the joint being very busy with a long wait. Miguel @ Brunchies, see you again real soon. Maybe this week :)

    Portobello Croissant Benny
    Darby H.

    I've been here a few times and while the food is pretty good, I would not choose to come again. The service has always been just okay, employees aren't super friendly but not rude, and it is a little slow. I really like the portobello croissant Benny! It's unique and super filling. The hash browns are okay but don't have much seasoning. The cuban was extremely good especially for a non cuban restaurant. Overall, I would come if someone invited me but based on the service and food not being anything mouth watering, it would not be my first pick for breakfast. It is nice that they have many options including lunch items and are accommodating with food sensitive like providing gluten free bread. You can also make reservations, although they did not prepare our table (we had 5 people so they had to push tables together) until after we arrived.

    Full house & good food!

Ally's are clean and balls are in pretty good shape. Easy in and trim rotations. Great place to bring the kids or to hold an event. Providing many different entertainment options including karaoke, games for tickets, VR gaming and special event nights. They had a Latin dance night which is cool but not for me. I have no problem with people coming out to dance and have fun but the music was a little to load. It's pretty open concept so the music bounces all around but while in bowling alley I could barely hear the person sitting next to me. Also note that the bar does auto 18% gratuities so keep that in mind too.

The little bar menus were spectacular! So many great choices. I'm going to have to get to work on this! I owe it to myself to try it all. Then, there's the real menu!

So, this Grillsmith is in Carrollwood, along the east side of Dale Mabry, just north of Fletcher, at the end of a busy plaza, with plenty of parking. I'll be there, tasting my way through that tempting menu! I'm on it!

The café sits in an office park overlooking a small pond, and the setting is surprisingly peaceful. You order at the counter and the staff brings your meal right to your table, with outdoor seating available if you want to enjoy the view. The kitchen is semi‑open, so you can see the team preparing food, and it's obvious they take pride in what they do. Prices are very reasonable, and the quality makes every penny worth it. The staff was beyond friendly -- one young lady was cleaning tables and sweeping nonstop to keep the place spotless, even while the café was busy. I ordered my meal to go and still only waited about ten minutes. Between the excellent food, the warm service, and the inviting atmosphere, I highly recommend trying The Cracked Pepper Café.

The Cracked Pepper Cafe is one where googled failed miserably. Established for many years, close to home, and a highly rated sandwich shop which has been hidden from my google view for years. Tsk. Tsk. I spotted the place due to a sidewalk sign once I was in an office park on another errand. Lo and behold, a promising sandwhich menu, a breakfast menu and a cozy little place with indoor and outdoor seating. Good vibes, a nice lakefront ambiance and New York flair. Plenty of parking, a short walk to the backside of the office building which are a few long one story structures if memory serves. I ordered to go, the Gabagool, an italian sammie and a Cuban with lettuce and tomato to try their wares. I also ordered an omelet, the Tombstone, for the wife. Now, for me, when an italian has mortadella and capicola (gabagool) in it, you are my kinda soulmate. All the right stuff and packed skyscraper high. All the fixins that come with it do not fit in the "sandwheech". Spoon them into your mouth as you eat or save for after. I was suspicious of the dressing because instead of italian it was roasted red pepper sauce, I got it on the side just in case. Loved the Gabagool, excellent flavor profile, meaty and a nice blend of textures. The sauce had me on the fence at first but found myself more attracted to it as I ate. The cuban for me was nothing special, the same issue I encounter most places. I prefer sliced pork to pork chunks. Pork chunks ruins the balance of ingredients for me, I feel like I am eating a pork sandwich dressed like a cuban. That's my take on it and there are thousands who would disagree. I just grew up with cuban sandwich perfection (hand sliced meats off a ham leg and pork leg) throughout my childhood. The omelet was excellent. It's now the wife's favorite place to get "Stuffed Eggs" as they call it. This place will be added to the rotation, likely twice a month at least. The one disappointment is I can not convince them to add Vickie's Jalapeño Chips. The carry the Vickies brand but not the top selling flavor, by far, I looked it up. Not sure what the issue is but my sandwiches are consumed sans chips. I guess that is their perogative. Ergo, I go chipless. But don't let that stop you, the food here is great! Come get ya some!
