    First time I went here was so delicious. This time was not good at all. I had the commish again and it had absolutely no flavor besides the few bites where there was a jalapeño so it was spicy. Tots were average. Truffle Mac n cheese did not have any truffle flavor. The goat cheese burger was better because it was a large piece of fried goat cheese at least. The Chicago style thin just tasted like a cracker and the toppings were not evenly distributed. Sad.

    Four of us dropped in St Paddy's day for lunch as most of the restaurants in Punta Gorda were shut down due to a gas main line leak. Great biker centric restaurant which is attached to a HD dealership. Good and diverse menu and everybody in our group really enjoyed our food and drinks. They also have a really nice outdoor event stage with different bands ( check out the schedule). Highly recommend while in the area.

    OH MY GOSH! This place is AMAZING! If you love live music and drinking this is the place for you. Coming off the street you would not think this was much of anything but when you walk to the back you see this giant amphitheater with a ton of tables and they had bars around the perimeter and a VIP section , wow , we were floored ! So fun , we saw an acoustic duo and then an Eagles tribute band after them. Drinks were decently priced . We didn't eat but next time we'll get something. Again- as lovers of live music , you have to check this place out !

    the Twisted Fork brought the WOW!! a family get together with all different tastes and it was perfect. from Pizza to burgers to shrimp and sprinkle in A gluten free meal!! Even our best family member Bodhi the Golden Retreiver was allow to dine and had a great cheeseburger and broccoli meal. Our waiter Tommy was super attentive and handled us perfectly. Our drinks were always filled and checked on us frequently. Decor was really cool, there was live entertainment but we didn't see it (too early). Outside cool cars and even one on the roof!! inside and outside eating. TV's and music Loved it!!

    We came here for dinner but on a non music day. My son showed us the stage and seating area when they have bands playing. This is a great place with character. Menu was vast and food was delicious. We started with the brussel sprouts and we all had some good meals. Everything was eaten so quickly. I didn't have a chance to take any pictures. Servers were great. Something that normally doesn't happen the changing of the servers. Both came to our table to let us know that one was leaving. This was awesome and wished other restaurants did this. There was no stoppage of our service due to this and this was a great thing that happened. Next time we visit we have to come on music night to experience the venue.

    This was some delicious pizza, it had some caramelized onions. Real yummy.

    We've been a few times. We were there to listen to Pure Country. The food is amazing and fun. I had a burger with goat cheese, fun, filling, and fabulous.

    How long to get a table for lunch for 4 people off season?

    Tables are readily available off-season indoors. Outdoor seating is plentiful with cafeteria-style long tables.

    Is this a biker bar?

    No this is just a regular grill but it also has a big stage out back and room for a huge gathering. Staff are great here.

    Are you serving cornbeef andCabbage?

    Yes!

    A MUST when I'm in Punta Gorda!…read more My friend moved to Punta Gorda a couple of years ago. I've visited her 3 times, and we make sure to come here every time I'm in town. The bar/restaurant is located right on the water with great views! The parking lot is also the same lot used by the adjacent hotel, so it can sometimes be hard to find a park, depending on the day and time. It's a mixture of great outdoor spaces as well as covered spaces. There's also a private event space that's really nice as well. I've been at night as well as during the day and have enjoyed every experience. The staff is friendly and great! I even fell, I mean face-planted, one evening, and the staff made sure to check on me and see if I needed medical attention. The menu is pretty straightforward, and the bar is your basic bar. They have a drink menu, but a full bar as well. Everything is also well-priced. I haven't ordered food, so I can't give a review of the food. I will definitely be back on my next visit to PG!

Her bubbling personality and fun demeanor was terrific! Went to the restrooms to prepare for dinner. DISGUSTING! Paper all over the floor, sinks were a mess, and no paper towels. Brought to the attention of the staff. Came back 40 minutes later, same, nothing changed. Dinner came. I've never been to an establishment where everyone's food was mediocre at best. From wings, wraps, grouper sandwich to fish platter. Tasted terrible. Advise everyone, don't waste your time!

We waited about an hour on a Friday before spring break because we wanted a dockside seat! Worth it! 4 or 5 different brews on tap.. We sat outside & enjoyed the view--boats, gulls, & fish just steps away. We started with onion rings & fish dip. Both tasty. Hubby & son had the fried shrimp special with one side. Hubby loved his coleslaw (mayo based) & son's rice was a small portion. I had a grouper Rueben--delicious fish but not very ruebenish--no sauerkraut--coleslaw instead. Fries & pickle were crisp. You're supposed to toss your shrimp tails to the gulls! They catch them mid-air! All the staff was friendly & accommodating. A must stop spot!

We ordered an Arnold Palmer and a Ponce De Leon margarita, mozzarella sticks, shrimp basket, chicken fingers basket and (2) Florida orange cakes to go. Mozzarella sticks- average. Shrimp basket- good but tropical slaw was store bought with pineapple added. Chicken fingers- good not great, onion rings, good not great . Margarita- strong. Biggest problem- from 9-18 people just standing around talking, making staff walk around them. Other problems- some people just walk in past the front desk and just seat themselves ( the privileged). Total bill with tip $100 . Don't need to travel a half hour to just be ok. Won't be back.
