CranFunk Grilled Cheese
Betsy M.

Came here yesterday around 6 pm. It was hopping! It's a really neat place with a stage outside for different venues. Harley store next door. Good band was playing some classic rock. Hubby had beer, I had wine. Our server was pretty busy but still attentive. We only had to flag him down once. We tried the twisted sprouts. Just ok. With peanuts and a big glob of butter it was just kind of odd. My hubby had half rack with truffle Mac and cheese. Said it was good but rack was kinda small. I had a grilled cheese that had apples and Brie. Side of truffle fries. The fries were awesome. Sandwich was more "toasted" and a bit dry. Overall, we'd come back and try something else, or just come for the music!

What a unique place! The Harley Davison shop owns this restaurant & shares the same parking lot. The restaurant inside is a sports bar with retail in it. We sat outside under the covered stage area to see the band. This place has antique cars, motorcycle, gas pumps etc as well as a very large covered area to watch bands - 2 stages! The one stage is very large. We sat in this cool rocking chair style of table & enjoyed wine, beer, tequila & some food. I had the bison burger with broccoli as my side. It was good. My husband had the Knuckle sandwich - he liked it with the twisted fries. Our waitress was amazing - she really hustled & checked on us frequently. Definitely would go back to this place to see bands!

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.

VIP for the Johnny Folsom 4
Sita S.

Everything was excellent from the seating arrangements to the cuisine. Our waitress Bella was enchanting! The owners are amazing and go above and beyond to accommodate their guests. It's my second time here and I highly recommend it for the food and ambiance. They have a stellar selection of musical entertainment and I was here during the Johnny Folsom 4 and had an amazing experience.

Baked potato
Lisa C.

Yeah no sour cream, no bacon bits...steak was good, salad ok..baked potato sucked..ordered loaded to make up for not sour cream but then no bacon bits, $2.00 for a little bit of cheese! Is this a scam?

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!

I had to go to the bar to order food and drinks. Well ... I made the mistake of waiting a half hour before going to the bar and instead of being completely dead with no wait the kitchen was slammed by the time they got my order. I didn't get my food until I complained to the manager 2 hours later and the burger was a hockey puck because it had been sitting under the heat lamp for WAY too long plus it had more salt than ketchup on it. The manager tried making excuses until I told him, "If your waitresses would gave done their jobs two hours ago we wouldn't be having this conversation." I have gone back since then, but I stopped buying the VIP tickets and I stopped eating food there. I just enjoy the music and buy a drink or two. They've easily lost $500 from me because the manager didn't say, "I'm sorry" and make sure that I got a hot, fresh meal that was cooked correctly that night. The location is beautiful. The management is second rate at best.

Have outside seating/bar if you have an aversion to cigarette smoke although it is very well ventilated and always have benefits and different fun functions. Karaoke nites, pool/dart tournaments and always always put together amazing meals for those who are away from family for Thanksgiving and Xmas. They have a dozen big screen TVs with a full NFL package. If u like to have fun and laugh w good people this is the place to be!

Riviera Bar and Grill - Crab cakes

Ok this place is a total dive. It was recommended to me by a local bartender who seems to know her…read morestuff. I came here after a round of golf. Everyone loved my golf hat- "play bad fast". I looked at the outdoor bar but every single seat was taken. All the outdoor tables were booked. So I went inside and saw the inside bar was also full. A table for ten and a table for 6 had departed and needed to be bussed, but both were too much for just one person. So I checked in w the hostess and she asked - booth or table. I wanted table. I got a nice table by the river! Lovely views. Exactly what I wanted. Menus were dropped and soon, Sam was checking in on me. I was so hungry, I had looked at the menu and pics on my way there. I went for the crab cake appetizer and the Gold Wave cocktail. For my entree, I was torn between the Grouper Reuben and the Sea Dog (fried grouper on a long roll, topped with all sorts of goodness). Sam said grouper Reuben was his choice. He asked if I wanted grilled, blackened or fried. I told him to surprise me. For my side, I had the choice of (more) coleslaw (it has coleslaw instead of sauerkraut), fries, sweet potato fries, or a side house or Cesar salad for $4 more. I went w the house salad and their standard citrus vinaigrette. Salad and crab cake came out first. Salad was a huge portion- romaine (some pieces needed better washing), red onion galore, halved cherry tomatoes and cucumber slices. It was great, but needed croutons. The crab cake was the perfect size for one person. It had a whole grain mustard remoulade sauce. Yum! It had some filler but also had a lot of crab. I enjoyed it. The grouper Rueben came out hot!!!! Served with a side of coleslaw and a pickle. I added some needed salt. Boy that fish filet was huge. Sam had put it in grilled for me. Healthy. Nice. I ate half and then I was stuffed. I filled up on the salad and crabcake apparently. I enjoyed the views of boaters going by. It started to rain hard and the folks outside just stayed there. The overhang must've been protecting them well. My server, Sam, was around often to answer my questions. Apparently the grouper Reuben market price is only $21. And if you want redfish or mahi, the price is the same- $21! That's crazy. What a deal. The gold wave is made with Elijah Craig; Good ol Kentucky bourbon. And for dessert, they have cheesecake, peanut butter pie, mud pie, key lime pie, coconut sorbet and orange cake (which he says is a local favorite). I was too stuffed to buy but happy to hear the list. Overall I had a wonderful meal and service was really good. I would recommend adding croutons to the salad, and cleaning up the bathrooms regularly. This place ain't fancy. It's a dirt parking lot. The tables are naked. Folks come casual. However, the prices are great and the food does the talking. Come check them out.

This is a popular local spot, and it was definitely busy when we visited. Our table was clean, but…read morethe floors were noticeably dirty. Every time our kids dropped their crayons, we jokingly told them, "You snooze, you lose," because we didn't want them picking anything up off the floor. Our waitress was very kind and patient, but we barely saw her throughout the meal. The service could definitely be more attentive. We also waited quite a while for our check, and by then our kids were getting pretty impatient. The kids' mac and cheese looked just like Kraft mac and cheese. The kids enjoyed it, but it's probably not something we'd order again since it's easy to make at home. The oysters were delicious, and I also really enjoyed the fried shrimp basket. I wasn't a fan of the radish sauce, but the coleslaw was excellent. My husband ordered the whole fried fish basket. Unfortunately, it was served without any utensils, so we had to wait until we could flag down another waitress to ask for some because we couldn't find our server. The fish also would have been easier to eat if it had been cut or partially filleted, as the crispy coating fell off the fish when trying to eat it, making it less appetizing. Overall, the food had some highlights, especially the oysters and fried shrimp, but cleaner floors and more attentive service would have made the experience much better.
