The pork on the Cuban was cooked perfectly. Slow roasted, full of flavor, and not dry at all. You could taste the quality right away. The sandwich overall was a 10 out of 10. The fries were clearly made in house. They had a really cool texture, light, airy, almost fluffy. Hard to describe but different in a really good way and the flavor backed it up. Coleslaw was solid too. Light, refreshing, and had a nice slight sweetness that balanced everything out. The staff was great, friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I will be coming back to.

I'm not going to lie, she ordered an omelet, and it looked really good. I was short on time, so I only ordered a side of hash browns, and honestly, I regretted it. They weren't as crispy as I expected, seemed a little undercooked, and were pretty bland. The cappuccino, on the other hand, was really good! Very frothy, and the coffee had zero acidity. The service was fine. As for the place itself, I think it could definitely use a little upgrade when it comes to the decor. It felt very "cold" to me--not really the kind of place that invites you to sit down and stay for a while.

It offers dining and a small store to buy some of their offerings. The service: Service was efficient and although our food took longer than expected to arrive, our server kept visiting us to refill our drinks. The food: We all had burgers and fries. The burgers were tasty and juicy and the fries were great. We also shared a honey pie dessert which was also an interesting offering and well made. The bottom line: As always with my reviews the bottom line "customer so what" would we come back? The answer... nope! I'm sure your asking, If the service was good, the atmosphere nice and the food great, why would we not come back? The answer is the price. It's not often I pay over $100 for burgers, fries, a shared dessert and drinks but we did here. The food was good but not THAT good that it warranted that kind of price.

Even though the parking lot is large, it fills up quickly since many people are also heading to the beach.

Mai Tiki is in Stuart, right by the Colorado Avenue Park. It's a medium size outdoor restaurant,…read moreattached to the Old Colorado Inn. It features a large bar and many top tables. There is no AC, it feels like you are in an outdoor tropical garden with a Tiki. The menu is limited, farm to table approach. It offers several appetizers and a few entrees. Tropical cocktails. My sister and I once a month meet for lunch, usually go to the other restaurants in the downtown area. This was a Saturday. The restaurant was pretty empty. We decided to try it, since it was new. It's off season for Florida. I like that it's away from traffic and close to the river, but not on the river. We ordered several appetizers, Tuna stack, it was good with toast on the side. I would have preferred wonton chips or tortilla chips. We also had the crab fritters, these were delicious and plentiful for two people and the Burrata salad. We wanted the Brussels sprouts, but they were out so the chef prepared Bok Choi instead. Equally delicious. We ordered an infused cucumber refreshing cocktail. The service was very good. The owner stopped by our table, to ask how we liked it. He was gracious and told us his story how he bought the placed and design a menu along with the Chef. That was a plus. They also have music for dinner. Parking is street. The Tram goes around and it will leave you at this restaurant from the large parking lot. Please note there's a green market on Sunday's so the parking lot is usually full.

Hoping for better luck, we moved to the bar, where we then sat for another 10 minutes without anyone helping us. When we politely approached the waitress to ask for assistance, she was disrespectful and argumentative instead of apologetic. As we were leaving, another customer even mentioned that a different waitress there is usually much better, which makes it even more disappointing that our experience was so poor. Customer service and professionalism really matter, and sadly this visit fell far below expectations

The birthday girl had the short rib grilled cheese which looked exactly like the pictures. She managed to eat the whole thing. I had the steamed clams. The presentation was totally unexpected. It had a pizza dough topper that was puffed up with the clams, linguica & broth nice and steamy underneath. It was an amazing preparation and the dough helped tame some of the spiciness from the linguica. We all said we would come back. I would give this restaurant a solid 4.5 stars as the refill of our water was a big sluggish. Since you cannot rate in 1/2 star increments, I gave it a 5.

Classic diner set up and ability to onlook where the wait staff prepare the finishing touches to the dishes. Service (5/5): The service for this joint is very much which made my experience. The wait staff women were a delight-- sweet, friendly, and eager to help! They provided updates, refreshed our beverages, sincere when an error was made, and provided recommendations too. Food (5/5): There is so much on the menu to try! Huge portions for an affordable rate. Don't miss out on their freshly baked goods. We loved the cinnamon bun over the coffee cake but both were very good and served warm. The pulled pork benedict special was very tender and had loads of flavor. I enjoyed the corned beef but liked the benedict more. The second day, we enjoyed omelet and brioche bun French toast.

I decided it was time to try out the Jensen Beach downtown experience…read more The Ambiance: With a view of the ocean actually a side view from afar, the downtown area, although not as cute as Stuart's downtown, is pretty nice. The only issue is the traffic noise, which is considerable. The inside restaurant area is your typical breakfast restaurant with booths and tables. The outside dining area features several tables on the sidewalk with that side view of the ocean and a frontal view of all that previously mentioned traffic. For my dining experience I chose the outside. The Service: My server did a great job taking my order, making sure my drinks were replenished and actually getting my somewhat unusual hot tea with steamed milk and honey correct on the first try! The Food: Besides the traffic, here's where the restaurant falls on its sword. I ordered corned beef hash topped with poached eggs a side of "crispy" home fries and buttered sour dough toast. The Good: The highlight of the meal was the "homemade" corned beef hash. I'm always hesitant to order "homemade" corn beef hash because it's often full of items it really doesn't need. However, this corned beef hash was absolutely excellent and it was clear that it was really "homemade". The sour bread toast was also done properly and was amply buttered instead of what you get at so many places which provide a dash of butter, brushed on by a butter brush. Unfortunately, that's where the good ends. The Bad: My poached eggs were overdone featuring not a hint of runny yolks and those "crispy" home fries that I made a point of asking for, were about as far away from crisp as you could imagine. In fact they were probably the most mushy home fries I've ever had. The Price: I must say, the price was not bad but, I'd prefer to pay a bit more and get a better breakfast anytime!
