    The biggest problem with this place is the reception; there's never anyone at the front desk to show you to your seat, and it takes a long time for someone to appear and do it. After someone finally appeared and I sat down, my daughter and I opted for: - Fig and prosciutto pizza $19.00, which was very tasty despite having almost no prosciutto in it. - Bistro burger $19.00, I don't know where that's a bistro because there's nothing special about that burger. Overall, very expensive for ordinary food. Our waitress was super nice and helpful. The atmosphere was pleasant but quite normal.

    Matchbox at Sawgrass is a must visit! We did the unlimited brunch with unlimited drinks, and it was truly worth every dollar. The food was incredible, the steak and eggs were cooked to perfection, and the chicken and waffles were a standout. We started with the spinach dip, and the portions were seriously generous! The drinks were just as impressive..unlimited old fashioneds and strawberry lemon drops? Yes, please! The ambiance was very chill with great music! A special shoutout to our server, Jadee, who was absolutely amazing and had spot-on recommendations. We can't wait to come back for another unforgettable brunch!

    First i want to say the manager and our server was amazing. Eddie the manager and Julio our sever was nice listened and responded to critism. We started with cheese bread and it was ok. Then my drink was a cranberry sangría non alcoholic tasted like cranberry juice with a leaf it was supposed to have apple slices but that was missing. Then my fish and chips looked amazing but lakes flavor. I added salt and pepper to make it more flavorful. Despite that i live sitting outside and people watching and i will always come back to try more food on the menu

    The service was not good. We came in for lunch on a normal Tuesday, and there was no one at the front to seat us. There ended up being a line to be seated because no one was coming for at least 7 minutes. Finally, when we were seated, the girl had to rush to clean our table, and we didn't have cutlery for 30 minutes. Someone came to take our order quickly, but when we asked for lemon and ice with our waters, nothing. Had to wait for the other waitress to bring it again. Our main waitress was very nice and quick. I feel bad, it seems like they're understaffed or something. We ordered the lunch special, where it's a salad and sandwich or a salad and pasta. I ordered the apple and pear salad with the chicken sandwich (see pictures) everything was really good! The value was really good. The portion size was really good too! Left full, and my friend even had to take some home with her cause of how full she got. Overall, it was a good experience. The environment was cute, clean, very big, and red, but it was totally empty when we arrived. I would come back to try again; maybe it was just an off day.

    Sunday Brunch: We were disappointed. We got seated about 12:40. After our first drinks came at about 1, we waited for our server and didn't order a second drink or food until 1:40. The drinks came out wrong. Each time we ordered drinks they were different! I don't know if I was drinking a mimosa or a martini. Most of the time, it tasted like a mimosa yet advertised as a lemon drop martini. We got 1 drink every hour with bottomless being $25 that's ridiculous and a waste especially if they actually enforced the 2 hour table limit. After being there over 3 hours we each only tried 2 things on the $49 "unlimited" menu. Moreover I am dissatisfied with how long everything took! We could not enjoy the menu, atmosphere, music nor drinks because we were hAngry. Everything you order (drinks and food) takes 1 hour to come out. The drinks were room temperature. The food was barely warm. The food did taste well. I just wish it was actually warm. The Buffalo wings were my favorite. We enjoyed catfish & grits, steak & eggs were good. The French toast toppings made it to tart. They have a great concept, but it doesn't seem thought through for the crowd. Not some place I'd like to recommend positively to others, hoping it improves over time.

    Stopped in last min Sunday midday to grab something quick after running errands all morning, and we had a great time! The music was amazing, the crowd was great and eveyone genuinely seemed to have been enjoying their brunch! We were seated right away, and we placed our orders for a few Bloody Mary's, and 2 meals. I opted for the shrimp and grits, which was delicious! Well cooked shrimp, not overdone or tough, and the grits were seasoned well with Cajun spices. We also ordered the beef sliders, with a side of biscuits. The 2 meals came out, and the biscuits arrived about 20 minutes after we placed our orders. Seemed so odd for a very simple menu item. By the time they came out, we were done with our meals and asked for a box to take them with us. The Bloody Beer was delicious (a version of their Bloody Mary), it was refreshing, and had a good tomato to beer ratio. I never knew that Matchbox offered a bunch option, but is wonder if you're visiting with some friends. For about $35 you get unlimited food for 2 hours, not including drinks (drinks have a different set pricing). I'll definitely be returning, mainly for the grits and some bloody Mary's!

    Walnut salad with pear and blue cheese.

    This place is very nicely decorated, very convenient and located in the mall property. They have a room for events that is separate from the dining room and is really a very fancy and elegant spot to throw a gathering of 20-30 ppl. I recently attended a work event here and the food was top-notch. Service and ambience the same. Very well done. I had the ribeye which was extremely flavorful, and cooked perfectly, especially considering around 15 others ordered it in my group (of about 25). The mashed potatoes and asparagus were also 5/5! But the star of the show was very surprising. It was the pear and walnut salad! With blue cheese which I usually hate! WTH do they put in that dressing!? Either way it is paired so well and excellently balanced. This was a triangulation of everything hitting the spot and the night being memorable because of the place we chose to do the dinner event. And that deserves a 5/5 in my book. I'd def go back and get that same meal. Oh almost forgot! The cheesecake was also very tasty.

    Clean and unique interior with cartoon characters on the tables. Service was pretty quick and They offer Unlimited brunch on the weekends !! You can order 2-3 three items at a time from the menu and the breakfast burrito is self served. Food was pretty good, Definitely order the hot honey pizza!! Best thing on the menu. Unfortunately the chicken with my waffle was bland and cold

    I tried brunch at Matchbox twice and I loved it. Chris our server on my first visit was very friendly and helpful. It was a pleasure having him assist us with our orders. Everything that we ordered was delicious. I had the Waffles with bacon with a side of Fried Chicken strips. I also ordered the peach mimosa- that was delicious. I only needed one glass

    Dawn W.

    Stopped in for some post shopping bites and was pleasantly surprised by the happy hour menu. We took a seat outside to enjoy the weather and people watch. I didn't want to spoil my dinner so I had the wings and meatballs. Everything came out quickly which was great because I was famished! Lol. Our server was polite and efficient. And the food was pretty good. I'd definitely stop back in when in Sawgrass.

    Great pizza
    Scott H.

    The spinach and artichoke dip is actually really good. I suggest asking for it with chips as well as the pizza bread.. the fish and chips is good, but in my opinion, it used to be crispy and not so greasy. You can substitute your side of fries for another side.

    Brianna C.

    Visited this restaurant for their happy hour specials at Sawgrass Mall. The food and drink options for happy hour were very affordable and tasty based on what we tried. We also enjoyed one of their craft beers and a guava margarita. Be aware that the happy hour specials are only valid for bar seating, if available. A great option in the mall for a quick bite and drink.

    Felicia R.

    The CREAM OF CRAB SOUP is deliciousssssss!!! I'm a soup girly and I loved this. I didn't love the herb crusted salmon salad, I think that was probably a mistake on our part, but the other salads sound so much better. Side of fries helped wash down the mistake salad. We'll come back again to try more of the menu. Our waiter was nice and the people watching is great at Sawgrass!

The garlic rolls were insane... honestly some of the best I've ever had. We shared a house salad, and it was huge--definitely big enough to split. Everything tasted super fresh, and the balsamic dressing was perfectly drizzled and flavorful without being overpowering. For my entrée, I ordered the chicken parmesan with angel hair pasta. I'm pretty picky about marinara sauce (and I'm Italian, so I hold places to a higher standard), but everything was completely on point. The flavors, the sauce, the portion--just really well done. What made the experience even better was the owner coming over to talk to us. She shared details about the food and the restaurant, which made it feel really personal and welcoming. They also host special wine tastings at the end of the month with a curated menu, which I definitely want to come back for. We didn't try the pizza this time, but I already know I'll be back. They offer thin crust and even a deep dish that you can order ahead (about an hour in advance), which sounds amazing. It's a smaller place, but it's cozy, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the service was excellent. I'll definitely be back--and next time I'm saving room for dessert (if I can stop myself from eating all the garlic rolls again).

One detail that stood out immediately was the visible service dog sign near the hostess stand. I was seated right away, and they even brought out a water bowl for my service dog without needing to ask. The server was knowledgeable about the menu, offered helpful recommendations, and confirmed they provide a 20% discount for military members and first responders on select meals, which is always appreciated. I shared a large Mona Lisa pizza topped with fresh basil, prosciutto, and thick slices of tomato. The thin crust came out perfectly crisp with just the right amount of char from the brick oven. Service was friendly overall, although it appeared the server may have been covering too many tables. Drink refills were missed, and it took a little while to close out the check. Even with that, the food, atmosphere, military-friendly discount, and service dog accommodations make this a place worth visiting for either lunch or dinner.
