Boneless wings and garlic parm sauce

First time in this location after trying out the other 2 and it was good, but not what I was expecting, I came to this location looking forward for their burger, I also had boneless wings with garlic parm sauce as an appetizer, from the beginning everything was pretty good, service is always amazing and the vibes of the place are always nice, but everything went downhill when I got my boneless and they were frozen in the inside, I communicated to the server about the situation and they gladly fixed it with no problems, I also ordered my burger medium rare but it was well done, I've work in a restaurant before and I know that this kind of mistakes happen and I don't really mind them when it happens, overall the wings were pretty flavorful but I was disappointed with the burger, also the garlic parm sauce doesn't really feel like sauce and it's more like just garlic butter, I still recommend this place because of their staff and how kind they are, but, I would definitely get the cheesesteaks over the burger :)

I really like this Cheesesteak shop. They aren't my #1 but they aren't way off either. Tough competition here in Sarasota. The service is always quick and friendly. Erin is especially Great. I've tried 3 different types of Cheesesteaks here and enjoyed every one of them. I've also had their hoagies which are pretty good also. It is centrally located here off Rt 70 near Lockwood Ridge. No doubt that I'll be back again soon.

Garlic Bomb

I have worked a couple hundred yards away from this place for almost 10 years and this is my first time stopping in. My coworkers told me they make a good cheesesteak. I ordered a garlic bomb cheesesteak with onions and peppers . The sandwich was really good. I really enjoyed it and I will be back for more. I ordered it take out but the service was good . And the place was clean and had a nice atmosphere. I will be back

We have visited this location as well as the owner's other locations and have thoroughly enjoyed their food! We have eaten in as well as ordered to go! The service has always been good! I also love the food! The chicken Philly is my most favorite! I love to pair it with their tator tots! The inside is a little smaller but we have been seated comfortably and not had any issues with sound and conversing. You can also sit outside which is a great option on some of our beautiful days!

Great place!!! Kristal was so nice I told her it was my first time here and she did not rush me and explained the menu and options to got with the cheesesteak sandwich. It was one of the best cheesesteak I ever had!!! I will definitely be back!!! Maybe getting extra cheese next trip!!

Fresh bread, three cheese slices, lots of peppers and onions, and ribeye on a fresh bread - 6 or 12 inch sandwiches available. Prices are reasonable. Very tasty. And the bread was stuffed full. Unlike the Philly spots, here they chop the meat, cheese and veggies diligently until its consistency is more like ground beef. It does combine the ingredients thoroughly. Staff was friendly snd there are a handful of tables if you want to eat in. Place was full on a weekday at lunchtime. Will try some of their other offerings next visit.

My companion and I were out and about on the Easter weekend. We had had South Philly cheesesteaks before, and knew the french fries were very good. Since we were in the neighborhood, we decided to return. The restaurant sits at a very busy intersection in a strip mall, and has indoor and outdoor seating. We decided to eat inside, and we immediately met by the waitress who promptly took our drink order and returned to take our order. She was very friendly and efficient. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak with no peppers and my companion ordered the Bollettieri Chicken Salad. I also ordered a side of the Phiery fries. The home style fries arrived first, and had a nice spicy Sriracha seasoning. The side of Ranch dressing went well with the fries. My Philly and the Bollettieri Chicken Salad arrive shortly thereafter. The salad is huge and is easily fit for two. In our case we brought some home. The salad has a full blackened chicken breast on top and at least half a cup of feta cheese. It is also full of walnuts and cranberries. The Philly cheesesteak arrived, hot on an Amarosa bread bun, and had just the right of onions and cheese for me. I don't like green peppers, and they gladly left them off. We arrived right at the rush as the restaurant quickly filled up, but the waitress was very attentive and kind. As quickly as a restaurant filled up, it emptied out. I was very impressed with the small staff ability to keep everything moving. The interior of the restaurant is very clean and welcoming And the glasses of Coca-Cola were large. While I find Delco's in Dunedin to have a better Philly cheesesteak, this one is definitely serviceable and worth a second visit.

Both came with a kale and quinoa salad which was refreshing with a hint of heat. A+. Unfortunately the ribeye initially was overdone. My partner ordered medium rare, and although the steak was flavorful, there was no pink in sight and it was slightly tough. After a few minutes, when our server checked in, we let him know, a manager came over soon after, and he said he would have it redone. It took longer than expected, and the other two of us were done eating before it arrived. In fact, I was panicked that the steak would again be overdone as some time had passed, and I said that to the server. But the steak was perfectly done when it arrived. To make up for the lateness, the manager offered us a dessert. We had the key lime and it was amazing. Surprisingly but appreciatively we were comped the steak. They made it right and that is important. Service was good. I did run out of water a few times. My only real complaint there was the server should have asked us to cut into the steak right away. I wish all restaurants did this. This is our second time here. We were here last year and had a great meal then as well. We will be back.

The food is delicious, and the cocktails are unique and delightful. My wife and I came early on a Friday evening, around 5:30. My wife has celiac, allergies to chicken, eggs, dairy and more. Thankfully their menu is labeled for items that can be made gluten free, vegetarian, or even vegan. We were served drinks and our appetizer when my wife got called away to deal with a minor emergency. We thought she would be back in 20 mins, so I sat at the table and told them to leave our food under the heat lamp and she'll be back soon. Well, it took 45 minutes before she was back. As soon as she sat down Dean, the owner, came and told us he wasn't happy with the quality of our meals for having sat so long and he apologized for the wait but he insisted on cooking them fresh. We had the brussel sprouts appetizers, shortribs, and salmon. The accommodations they made for my wife's allergies didn't detract from the food at all. Everything was fantastic. We will be back to dine here again.

We stopped in for lunch and were very happy to feel welcomed by the entire staff. Sierra was our…read moreserver and was very attentive and helpful. The great service led to some great food.

We landed on Riverhouse for lunch and overall had a great experience. Parking was very easy, and there was even a cart available to take guests to the restaurant, although we chose to walk. The only unfortunate part of our visit was the hostess experience. We waited at least five minutes without being greeted, which honestly didn't bother me much. What stood out was that when she finally came over, there was no acknowledgment or apology for the wait. It was my husband, our two kids, and me, and she asked, "Table for two?" When I asked if they had a gluten free menu, she seemed confused and told me I would need to ask our waiter because she was new. Being new is completely understandable, but the annoyed tone throughout the interaction unfortunately left a bad first impression. Thankfully, everything changed once we were seated. We had a great table outside with a beautiful view, and when we opened the menu, we were happy to see that gluten free options were clearly labeled. Then we met Johnny D. What an absolute breath of fresh air! He immediately brought great energy, was incredibly knowledgeable, and took amazing care of us. Our son wanted oysters, and because some oyster facilities may use processing methods that can be a concern for someone with celiac disease, Johnny went above and beyond to find out exactly where the oysters originated so we could feel comfortable ordering them. He gave us great recommendations, stayed on top of everything at our table, and truly made the experience memorable. Johnny D turned what started as a questionable first impression into a fantastic lunch. We will definitely be back!

The food wasn't anything to write home about. I ordered the lobster bisque and my company ordered chicken tenders. Neither were flavored very well. They were pretty bland.
