Unfortunately Diana the bartender was rude and the worst bartender I've ever come across in my life. If I could give a negative zero rating I would.

I was craving a good steak and came across this casual, laid back steakhouse. After reading several…read morereviews praising their beer cheese and pretzels, I knew I had to find out for myself. I made a reservation, but when I arrived, only a few people were sitting at the bar, so I practically had the entire dining room to myself. Phyre is located on a quiet street just steps away from St. Cloud City Hall. The décor features black velvet booths, black chairs, and marble tables. It isn't fancy, but it has a cool, modern vibe. They even had a huge Christmas tree still on display, decorated in preparation for the Fourth of July, which definitely caught my attention. Allie was my host and server, and she was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout my visit. Every restaurant needs a Allie. She was amazing! If Phyre management reads this, she needs a raise. I mean absolutely wonderful service! I started with what they call the "Our Fashion" cocktail and their famous pretzels served with beer cheese . The cocktail was enjoyable, and I can see why the pretzels get so much attention. They were soft, warm, and fresh. I would have preferred a little less salt, but then again, it wouldn't really be a pretzel. The cheese sauce could have been hotter, but it was flavorful and paired well with the pretzels. For my entrée, I ordered the surf and turf featuring filet medallions, three crab-stuffed shrimp, and a side of garlic mashed potatoes. The food arrived surprisingly quickly, which I appreciated. The filet medallions were cooked to a perfect medium and had a nice slight crisp on the outside, although they weren't quite as hot as I would have liked. It was served towith a delicious wine sauce that really elevated the dish. The crab stuffed shrimp were flavorful, and the garlic mashed potatoes were a great complement to the meal. Overall, I enjoyed my Sunday dinner at Phyre. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the food delivered a satisfying steakhouse experience. I'd definitely return to try more of the menu.

Hard to describe this place. It was decorated like an old time speakeasy. There was a pianist doing Billy Joel songs which was quite good. And the patrons here were top notch. Liked the tree they have up all year, the theme for February was Valentines. Frankie is the chef and she is making magic here. Had the short ribs and it came with rosemary and garlic mash and brussels. Can't believe how very delicious this was and it was 5 star quality and worth every penny of it's $36 price. One of the best meals I have had in months. The bananas foster cheese cake is to die for. Actually everything was great. The food, drinks and such friendly service. So in love with Phyre Brewery & Tavern. Crystal and Kristen were our bartenders. Kristen made a smoked old fashion which was awesome. It was a little on the sweet side, but definitely awesome. See the videos. They also have a Clydes old fashioned which is garnished with their phyre bacon. Aubrey and Allie were taking care of the tables, but got to meet them too and they were awesome. There is Karaoke here on Mondays... so definitely have to come back and check that out!

This time, I brought my family because I wanted to share the great experience we had during our previous visit. The restaurant was almost empty, with about 10 people at the bar. We walked in and were never acknowledged, so we seated ourselves near the bar. After waiting for a while, I approached the bartender to ask for menus. She simply pointed at them, shook her head, and continued serving what appeared to be her regular customers. She then looked at us and asked if everyone in our group was over 21, which we were. When the bartender came to our table, she asked to see everyone's ID. One member of our family only had a photo of their ID on their phone, which she would not accept. She also told us she doesn't serve tables, would not be able to assist us any further, and walked away. We respect restaurant policies, but there's no excuse for making customers feel ignored and unwelcome, especially when it's nearly empty.

They add the karaoke and extra merchandise as a scam. Just to make more money off the overly expensive teas and items. Don't trust this place. The place is cute and all but it's too small also. I felt super uncomfortable even coming through the door because of how many people were in there and you had to pass through the singers to even get to make your order, only to then find out it was 8 dollars per person? The drink ISNT EVEN AUTHENTIC it's watery and you can finish the tea in under 4 mins. Waste of time never again, dosent even deserve 1 star. Thai tea should never be this expensive when it takes less than 5 mins to make. Super dissatisfied and disappointed I'll find another place.If you want a suggestion please go to Mills area by downtown Orlando or other places their Thai teas are less expensive and more flavorful!

The bartender, who I believe may have been the owner, was extremely friendly, conversational, and welcoming. He really added to the experience rather than simply making drinks and moving on to the next customer. The cocktails were fantastic, with plenty of creative and specialized options to choose from. The ambiance is definitely one of the highlights. It has that intimate, tucked-away speakeasy feel with eclectic décor, comfortable seating, and a relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. It's a great spot whether you're looking to hang out and have a few drinks or just wind down at the end of the night. This wasn't somewhere we had planned on visiting, which honestly made finding it even better. Between the atmosphere, drinks, and genuinely great hospitality, it was an easy 5/5 experience for us. Absolutely recommend, and I would happily come back!

I had a group of us driving to Orlando for a weekend and we were making good time, so it was perfect to stop short in St Cloud to see what this Black Squirrel Bookstore was all about. I actually let the girls go in and check it out as we had brought our dog. I sat in the car and read a book ironically, why they had some speakeasy fun. well after maybe a half hour i looked up and my gal and another lady were by the car. The other lady said she was the owner and that we could bring our dog Augie inside. It was very kind of her, as it really wasn't expected art such a nice spot. He sat politely under the table, while we enjoyed some fun drinks, a singer that was adding to a nice night. We left after a couple, but for sure will swing by again when we have the time; great spot.

All right. So here goes. I'll give this place a solid three, maybe a 3 1/2. Here's the problem. Well let me let me give the positives first. The conch fritters were outstanding. A lot of conch meat and not a lot of filler. 5 out 5 . The mozzarella wedges not bad. Pretty much standard. That marinara sauce was from a can just admit it. It was lousy and then the fish and chips with the Mahi. The fish was outstanding. Well done. The batter was not soggy. It stayed crest for the most part of fish was good. Listen for that much money. I want more french fries in there. You literally gave me 10 french fries. In the end of the thing that's not excusable with the price of things where they are be a little more giving on the french fries. The remoulade Tartar sauce was was way too salty use. You can't use that much old base seasoning but overall the fish was good now here's my problem. And this is pretty much why I'm giving you three stars instead of giving you four or five. I lived. I worked and I cooked in Charleston South Carolina. I know how to make shrimp and grits. I know how to make it low country style like it's as it comes from what you served me. I appreciate your creativity but you don't put fried grit cakes and shrimp on a skewer. Let me call you and that is not shrimp and grits. Honestly, that's a mark of a lazy chef. If you can't make cheese grits and you don't know how to make cheese grits for shrimp and grits. I was a chef and I still am. I'll come over there. I'll teach you how to make a low country shrimp and grits. OK and it'll sell way better than that stuff. A fried GRITCAKE no . NOW the shrimp was cooked. Well it was nicely season. Good job on the shrimp. But like if you want me to come over there I'll show you how to cook it. You get you get $20 $25 for a bowl of that stuff. Instead of making that stuff. You can make cheese grits in a matter of minutes. OK all you need us some Bell peppers some good pepper, Jack cheese and come do it. I'll do it for free. Other than that. It was decent. Just let me help you. I don't mind coming over there and showing you how to do it. If you don't know how to do it. I really don't. But please don't do that. Again. If you, I know you're trying to be creative but that that's that's not. If you can't ruin a classic dish like that. I'm sorry. I don't mean to sound nasty and rude. But that's a lazy chef frying a great cake and putting it on skewer. No thanks. I'd love to come back maybe try something else but I certainly wouldn't be getting that again until you make some changes on that. But overall not a bad experience food wise. I can't. I'll have to come in and give you the rest.
