We gave it a solid 5 stars for the ambiance and service. The server was busy but consistently ensured that we had everything we needed. We ordered a variety of dishes, including Chicken Milano, Lasagna, and Lobster Ravioli. While none of the dishes were particularly bad, they also didn't stand out as exceptional. We'd give food a 3-star rating overall. We'll definitely be back to try again, understanding that dining experiences can vary greatly depending on the staff and kitchen. The restaurant did enough right to warrant another visit. I highly recommend giving it a try as well.

We came in excited to try their food since we are…read morefrom out of state, we chose to sit outside since it was relatively nice out...We sat for 15 mins with no service, no drinks, no silverware...nothing. Finally a server comes over and you could tell he was busy he explains that to us, and all is fine.. another 10 mins before drinks came out we ordered our food because we clearly were not being serviced appropriately. we sat for awhile drinks empty server came back one other time to check on us said he'd grab drinks and never did. We sat for an hour all together before we finally gave up got our food paid and left. Mind you in all of this we were not the only ones sitting outside multiple other servers passed by not once did anyone say anything to us or help. We watched from outside as our server made multiple trips to other tables and saw other servers standing around. When we did finally pay we still hadn't received silverware or refilled drinks. I'm not really sure if this is a service issue or a management/staffing issue BUT IT WAS TERRIBLE and should be fixed. Clearly there are good reviews here which is why we stopped in but this experience was not it HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED!!

I was in the area with a friend and his daughter. We visited Silver Springs and were ready for…read morelunch. His daughter said she wanted a burger and we found this spot. There are a few tables outside, right by the door. There are signs that make it clear they are non smoking tables. We decided to eat inside, were seated right away and our server came quickly. She told us what some of the popular burgers were and we made our selections based on that. I had the Jamaican burger cooked medium. This burger was cooked perfectly, had good flavor, was topped with a sweet and spicy jerk sauce. It was everything that I expected. My friend had the Brie burger and his daughter had the smash burger and they both said those burgers were very good as well. Our server was attentive to our needs throughout our meal. I would definitely go back again.

We showed up tonight to celebrate my birthday (today), my hubby's (Monday) and our daughter in…read morelaw's (this past Thursday). Couldn't think of a better place to eat, drink and be merry at! Tonight was "trivia night", which, while we didn't play, we did enjoy trying to guess the answers. Our grand daughter's face was a big "O" of amazement when realizing the upper tables were enjoying roasting their marshmallows at their table...when she was told they were making s'mores...she went nuts! She's so excited to get tableside s'mores! My wings were even better than they were last time since there was an addition of seasonings sprinkled on them along with the dill pickles, but unfortunately, our cheeseburger pizza suffered from not having enough mustard and ketchup base to it, the tomatoes were enormous chunks and so were red onions. It made it very difficult to eat without things falling all over your clothing since they were such huge chunks on top of the tiny pieces of pizza. My husband got the steak bomb sub, son got a pepperoni Stromboli, daughter in law got the Sharon's Brie burger, grand daughter the child's cheeseburger and fries. Our apps were the garlic knots, mild wings (10) and fried cheese curds with sriracha ranch dipping sauce. Everything was okay, except that it took forever for everything to come out, compared to our first visit. Even our s'mores seemed to take forever. The quickest part of the whole visit was the bill . The fella that waited on us the first time was on point. Not saying that the young lady waiting on us was rude or anything, but I think she was trying to do too many things at once and some things just fell by the wayside. Last visit we came in on a Saturday as well, but perhaps some people are just better at multitasking? I don't know. This time, our bill was over $200 with tip, but we still brought home food again. Not a lot compared to the last time, only 2 little pickle wings (I still can't get enough of those darn things!) and maybe 4 slices of pizza. My husband's loaded tots weren't to his liking, so there's something even for the dog tomorrow We may stay away for awhile and see if they manage to work out some kinks. If anything, the best rule is consistency. If the food preparation is not consistent every time you go to eat there, there's a problem. There should be NO deviation just because someone else is cooking it. All recipes should be the same. Twice we've ordered the same items and they've been different. I still recommend this place for great vibes, cocktails, food and the tableside s'mores. There's just nowhere else like it!

I'm not sure if she wasn't happy about serving a large party or if it was just an off day. I ordered the buffalo chicken salad. It was ok but nothing special.

My friend asked for the server two times and both times she seemed annoyed at any requests. I don't think I would return.

We were on their bottom floor patio (which was lovely) but I did spy that they have a rooftop patio as well (what's not to love?!?). Everything from the food to the cocktails to the service was exemplary. For my cocktail I got their Old Colonel's Smoking Gun which was their twist on an old fashioned and was delightful. For my entree, I got their salmon entree. It's glazed and comes with a size of their crispy brussels and cheesy grits. The brussels were delish and their cheesy grits rank among some of the best I've had with sharp cheddar giving them the perfect flavor kick. The atmosphere was so pleasant. It's definitely the sort of spot you'll feel tempted to linger. Get to it!
