    Lemon Pepper wings
    Antonia W.

    I got the wings... they were delicious. I got lemon pepper and sweet chili for my flavors. The wings were hot and fried hard. Aside from the flavor, the price was right. I got 20 wings for $28. I shared the wings with my table. Because I went here for a Day Party, there were no waitresses on the patio. Service was on the inside with the bartenders. However, the bartenders were efficient, and quick. My overall experience was good. I'll definitely go back.

    We were here for the first time last month for a Blues Festival and I really enjoyed it, so I was happy to come back when I learned that the first Tuesday of every month is Blues night. Music was supposed to start at 6 so we arrived at 5:10 so we could have some drinks and food before the music started. There was only one other table of 6 when we arrived. The four of us ordered drinks and each couple ordered an appetizer. The drinks arrived quickly since the bar is right outside. We had ordered 6 wings and it took 25 minutes. Our friends ordered a shrimp appetizer and it came out 10 minutes after ours. Good grief! The wings were actually very good. I wanted a Philly Cheesesteak, and asked for no mushrooms, but they couldn't accommodate that. ‍. I settled on a Cowboy Burger which came with fries. 6 pm came and went and still no music and still no food. Finally, at 6:35 the music started and my burger came out, but nobody else's food. I asked the server and she said it would be out shortly. 10 minutes later the other 3 meals came out. My burger was dry and salty, and served on a stale bun. The fries were good. The music was not blues, but just a variety of songs. We only lasted until 7:30 pm. None of the tables had umbrellas on them like last month, so it was roasting hot. Our server was non existent practically the entire time, the music wasn't blues, and there was so much cigarette smoke, none of us were happy. I am so bummed as I really like the venue, but it's doubtful I will return,

    Cajun shrimp are awesome! On the spicy side so be warned

    I've been wanting to check this place out since Red Star Rock Bar closed in Seminole Heights. It definitely has the same laid back vibes in a much bigger setting. Here's why it's worth a visit: - Interesting location behind the Harley Dealership. It's next to a nice pond and they have a great outdoor space with plenty of seating - Large inside area with lots of tables and bar seating - Room for big parties - Tons of TVs - Live music and good music playing all other times - Simple food menu but everything was good - Strong drinks - Friendly staff - Great prices - Parking is easy - Free Wi-Fi

    My wife and I attended the recent Blues Festival at the Red Star and since I did not eat here, my review is somewhat limited. First, I want to tell you how awful the place is and what a horrible experience I had! I want to say this because I would prefer that this gem of a place is kept as secret as possible. The truth is that I absolutely love Red Star. The setting is great! It is very rustic and despite the proximity to Rt 60, it has a country feel to it. There is a wooden plank patio attached to the bar/restaurant that has a covered stage for live entertainment and a small bar that seats about 10. The patio can accommodate about 30 four tops. I did not go inside the restaurant, but did look inside briefly and it looked like a fun space. The festival was very well run and all of the staff were very helpful and friendly. I will definitely return to enjoy the entertainment and have dinner!

    Welcome

    Just had one of their cheese burgers for lunch. It was delicious! Cooked just as ordered and juicy, as a burger should be! I'm sure you'll find the food as enjoyable as the ambience of this hidden gem! Adding to this review as they have changed their menu recently (6/21/22) Marissa our waitress and bartender was friendly and did a great job meeting our needs. The chips were freshly made and delicious but the salsa was yuck! Too much money at $6 for what it was. We also ordered the Cajun dry rubbed wings, they were just the right spicy, hot and fresh! A must try!

    2 pc fish & 6 shrimp w/fries....fresh...hot & delicious!

    Good food but they had to adjust the check because they added a extra order. Came here to watch the fight sat & out of 9 tv's only 1 was working correctly smdh.

    Chicken wrap with fries
    Tasha C.

    I decided to try here for lunch and got takeout. I ordered the chicken wrap and added bacon. The food comes with really thick crinkle fries. The restaurant seems to primarily be a bar and the meal I ordered was pretty good. The chicken wrap was huge and delicious . The fries were not crispy due to being so thick. The food was the perfect temperature and reasonably priced for the portion.

    After 4 visits here in 2 weeks, trying to help keep alive a live music presence in the Tampa Bay area, I will sadly no longer patronize this establishment. To make a long story short, previously asking the owner Paul what the band drinks and the cost, I was told $20, $5 a shot. My tab was $28, $7 a shot, and when I asked him and discussed it, I got some lame mish mosh, and he reluctantly reduced it, but not to $5 a shot. I don't mind paying the price asked for anything agreed upon, but I really don't like paying anyone more than a quoted price. Too bad, so sad.

    I frequent this location in order to get a charge on my battery electric vehicle. While doing so I grab some Lunch from @redstarlive and they have yet to disappoint. Their support of Armed Service Members as well as retired Veterans is greatly appreciated ~ have a rock'n Harley day!

    Huge bourbon selection
    Blake T.

    Great food and very friendly service. They carry my favorite bourbon too!! We will be back this weekend for the live music too!

    Ordered patty melt stating well well well done and when received told patty melts only come cooked medium. Duh!

    This is a solid choice for casual and family-friendly place. The atmosphere is relaxed and good…read morewith kids or watching a game with friends. The service was good and friendly. The food comes out fast and everything we tried tasted good. The burgers are juicy and well cooked, the fries were hot and crispy, which is always a plus. Overall it's a reliable spot with fair prices and good food. It's not the prettiest place but it's great for an easy, no stress meal.

    Cortney, our server, we felt could've been a little bit more attentive as we had to ask another…read moreserver (2xs) for something and she wasn't as engaging, it seemed like she was just there to collect a check and it wasn'tbusy at all because it was only 11:30 in the morning and the restaurant was fairly empty! Now Tessa (manager) on the other hand was very conversative, upbeat and enthusiastic of which made my wife and I almost forget about our servers demeanor! (Maybe she was just having a bad day) Naturally, we didn't take it personally! My wife had the classic burger and I had the Wild Shroomin burger which was to die for as it was so juicy and very flavorful! We also rocked it out with their seasoned fries and mango madness lemonade that literally had fresh chunks of mangos in it! The food and drink once again did not disappoint and IT overshadowed our server experience, which is okay because Tessa more than made up for it with her awesome attitude and spirit! We anxiously look forward to our next visit to this Bubba's 33 location! Thank you Ms.Tessa for a great experience! YOU ROCK!!

    Yard House is one of my favorite sports bar of all time. We live in downtown Tampa so it's just a…read morequick walking distance there & home. Not only the drinks are phenomenal, but the food is absolutely amazing. The hubs really likes the brussels sprouts here. I think they are too wet. I wouldn't order them myself. I normally like them crispy on the outside and moist in the middle and not wet. It was a weird sauce almost like Cajun, which is unusual for brussels sprouts. I still think Yeoman's has the best Brussels sprouts in the area. The onion rings here are the absolute best. The breading is flat and smooth, and the onions are thick. Places that make the crispy bumpy batter usually scratch my throat being so crispy however, the onion rings here are flat and smooth, and that doesn't happen. I like to order it with a side of beer cheese dipping sauce; it is absolutely incredible. I definitely recommend ordering a side of beer cheese dipping sauce. The drinks here are so strong. I was only able to get one since it was so strong. They are just too strong for me but very delicious. The hubs likes all of the drinks here he's tried them all. I ordered the espresso reposado martini, and I explained it to the server that I didn't want it sweet and he had a smarta$$ remark. I never saw him again after that drink hopefully, I never get that server again. He was ridiculous. The remainder of the service is absolutely incredible. Everyone is super sweet that we ordered food & rest of our drinks from. They must really enjoy their job. They're just a lovely bunch there. Know the menu extensively well and can recommend anything that you're craving for. Except for the first guy that we ordered our drinks from I would avoid that person. He was weird.

    Went here before the Kid Cudi concert last night. When we first walked in, we asked if we could sit…read moreoutside and they said it was first come, first serve. So we walked to the outside shaded area to grab a table but the waitress stopped us and said the free seating is outside outside (in the sun). So we went back in and asked for a table in the shaded outside. They brought us back to the table we were originally trying to sit at. So, already a rough start. The shaded area is nice to sit in though. It wasn't too hot, they had fans on and I wasn't cold for the first time ever. We ordered the truffle fries, Kurobuto Pork burger, wings (half lemon pepper, half buffalo) and Brussels sprouts, a medium sized Blue Moon and a medium sized Yuengling. The truffle fries were terrible! Mostly cold, not crispy, not enough salt, just overall bad. No Parmesan cheese on them either. The Kurobuto burger was actually pretty delicious. It had candied bacon, white American cheese, arugula and blueberry ketchup. The Brussels sprouts were nothing to write home about. They had good flavor, but weren't crispy at all. Half of the wings came out cold (the buffalo ones). We asked to have them replaced and then the waitress disappeared for about 15-20 minutes as our beers sat empty. Not sure what happened, but the wings came back out after 15 minutes, right before we were ready to leave. My friend said she didn't want them because we were about to go to a concert and didn't want to leave them in her car. The waitress finally came back about 10 minutes after that and said the wings should be coming. We told her we sent them back because they took too long. She ended up taking them off the bill. The ambiance was nice and it's a convenient place to eat if you're going to an event at Benchmark, but the food didn't live up to the high prices. Would probably not come back.
