I wanted to update my review to remind everyone that the soups here are delicious! And all are homemade!! My whole crowd loves the lobster bisque! It as good as a higher-end restaurant! The other soups are fantastic as well! We had the burgers-and it was great! Just like a homemade burger you would grill at home! And it had a nice bun that held up to the ketchup! My mom had the fish sandwich-and it was terrific! She also had the sweet potato fries,which were also delightful! read more

Kind of confused at the ratings for this restaurant. We came in for breakfast and left very underwhelmed. The service was decent with the exception of the wrong price charged. The crab Benedict wasn't exactly cheap, but it was made with imitation crab which is very misleading. It was not good. To everyone saying that they don't get how they can charge so little for so much crab, here's the answer. It's not real crab. In fact, imitation crab costs about the same as a hot dog. So you're paying fresh crab prices for essentially a hot dog with your Benedict. And the worst part is that it doesn't even come with a side. You had to order a side dish of potatoes if you wanted a side. The coconut crusted French toast was a little better, but we ordered one slice and was charged for 2. We honestly just wanted to get out of there so we paid and just left. Safe to say we probably won't be returning. read more

The food is pretty darn good. I used to cry too at least twice a week, but with the summer hours, it is hard to get there in time to eat and relax. They are also, very kind and understanding. Once, my credit card would not work and I was quite distraught. The lady that was the waitress (I forgot her name), told me not to worry about it and go on and leave. She said that they knew I was good for it. Well, you bet I was there the next day to pay the money!! Wonderful food and nice people. read more

Yelp says brunch but this place does NOT have mimosas and shouldn't be considered a "brunch" spot without that. I asked the server when we sat down if they had mimosas and she kind of huffed/rudely chuckled and said no. She was fine the rest of the visit but a little rude to start with that comment. They have beer/wine, moscato, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and a red selection, maybe Cab? The food was bland diner food, nothing to write home about. The crab omelet I had was sprinkled with paprika on top but I don't think had salt or pepper in it. The biscuit was ok but maybe frozen, didn't seem fresh made. This location had maybe 12-15 tables inside and I think a table or two outside. Everyone at my table liked there's enough and nothing needed to be sent back but I probably wouldn't try again. If you need a quick, simple, no frills breakfast, good to go. read more

I've lived in Englewood for 10 years and finally discovered Winks! We had company visiting and they wanted scallops and shrimp. We got the captain's platter and it was delicious! Shanna was our very sweet and friendly waitress. She explained the specials etc. My husband said it was the best fried shrimp he's had in a very long time. The blackened shrimp and fish were excellent. Perfect flavor...Such a nice little place. We cleaned our plates! Too full for desert. Great prices. We will definitely be back soon! read more

Great little hole in the wall, mom and pop place. Went there with family while visiting for breakfast and the waitress we had was awesome. She was sweet and always kept our yummy coffee full. I had the Winks breakfast sandwich which I put eggs over hard, American cheese and sausage on a English muffin. So good! I probably could've eaten 1-2 more of them, as it didn't fill me up, but they have a large side menu you can order in addition to their selection. I got a side of bacon and it was perfect! My husband got the french toast which I tried, and it was also very good. If you are adventurous and like small town American hole in the wall restaurants, this place is for you. If you prefer somewhere like First Watch or KeKes, then I'd take a pass! read more

I was not impressed. We are here on vacation and trying to find a place for crab legs. I googled and found this place. It had a 4.9 star rating so even though I had my doubts, looking at the pics, we tried it. My kids were mad bc they do not have crab legs. Very small place. My family said their food was ok but we all just had fried food. My husband liked the fried cod ok. But I thought the coleslaw and coconut shrimp tasted not fresh. It was an ok place for lunch I guess but I wouldn't recommend. read more

Hmmm not sure how this restaurant got the reviews it has. I deducted 1 star for each thing that I would consider a great restaurant should have. 1 very slow service. Waitress was nice but we waited over an hour for our meal to be served. 2 food was lukewarm or cold. Had to actually flag her down to get her attention. Told her our food was not hot. We watched the cook put it on the shelf but she never went and got it. Another person brought it to our table. 3 meal not as described. Ordered there famous crab Benedict. Imitation crab that was shredded and cold. Thumbs down! 4 no one stopped by our table to ask how our meal was. Maybe others have expressed there displeasure prior to us. read more

Certainly an improvement over my last visit. I was not even considering going back there, but my guest requested it, so I obliged. Don't know the waitress' name, since she never mentioned it. She was OK, again, better than the one I had my last time here. We both ordered 1/2 CHEF'S SALAD and that was good for the price, however, I was quite disappointed with the LOBSTER BISQUE that I ordered since it had too much thickener and not enough seafood pieces. All in all, still quite an improvement, so I may give them another go. read more

I had the smash burger and fries. The fries were fantastic, but the hamburger would have been wonderful except it was undercooked. It looked done on the outside, but on the inside, it was soft mushy some pink, some dark pink in parts of it. I got a mouthful of it taste like raw hamburger meat. i'm not the one that sends food back. I just had my fries and I had a couple bites of the hamburger and let it go. My waitress was wonderful and asked how everything was and we did tell her that it was undercooked and she told us, I'll let them know. Being a great waitress. They are supposed to let the cook or the manager know if something is not being cooked properly. So I told her I didn't want anything in return, but she did take the hamburger back. I have a bad feeling that she was chastised for that because when she came back out, she had glasses on and she didn't look at me. We paid our bill and left, but my husband and I both got the bad feeling that she got chastised for letting them know that that burger was undercooked. Normally, you don't have to tell someone to cook the burger done because the last thing you want is raw ground beef in your mouth. i'm hoping it was just a fluke and I hope she didn't get in trouble because she was a wonderful waitress, and I would go back and just make sure next time I tell them make sure my burger was cooked all the way through.. we had fish all day and it was wonderful sitting up there in a beautiful atmosphere!!

Our outstanding full attentive servers were Khaley and Miranda! Both were spot on! Drinks, Apps, Entree, special requests on the entree, nothing was an issue to accommodate our ladies. We were placed in their large private room and the set in a U SHAPE was very accommodating for all to be able to speak and hear each other. Artur, the staff made our special event a lunch a fun and outstanding time. We will definitely return in the future! If you haven't been, you are missing a taste of European cuisine.

Worst eating experience ever. We were totally ignored when we arrived and seated. There were two waitresses who paid no attention to us whatsoever. The customers next to us even commented that we must be invisible . Before anyone even took notice of us , they walked right by us and waited on two other tables that had come in after us. Finally after flagging the waitress she came over and said oh sorry it is a shift change , but neither of the two waitresses ever left, so that made no sense at all. Finally, we ordered. The rest of the customers were served except us. As the waitress walked by she notice my aggravation and said to me, the cook made a chicken salad rather than a chicken sandwich for you, so even further delay. When I cut into my chicken sandwich it was bloody and uncooked. The waitress did offer me another chicken sandwich.. are you kidding me !!!!! Just awful service and food was nasty !!!! read more

The food was so good it almost made up for the wait. *Almost.* 38 minutes, people. I love this place, but my stomach filed a formal complaint around minute 25. The ambiance is outstanding -- a little loud, but that's what happens when the place is packed with people who all had the same good idea we did. Service was very good and very attentive; our server checked on us so often I started to wonder if *we* were the entertainment. Bottom line: it was worth the wait, and we will definitely be back. Maybe at an earlier time next Sunday -- if we can actually wake up earlier on our day off. That's a big "if."

Somehow, we were able to get right in and sat at the breakfast bar. Their home fried potatoes were extra crunchy and delicious! I got the linked sausages, which were huge. My husband got the round pattie and loved it. They had a variety of choices to please everyone. Their breads for toast were so fresh. The best thing about this place was the organized cooking process! Everyone had a job and they moved people in and out quickly! I will definitely go back, when we go back to Englewood!

If you're looking for something that isn't the typical chain, this will be your place . I visited twice this month for breakfast and one time for brunch. Both were great. The Breakfast Bowl is one of my favorites with whipped eggs that are fluffy and moist served with sliced peppers and onions and sausage all over the top with cheddar cheese on cubed potatoes. The scrambled Eggs are so tasty. I just loved em, the waitress said that the eggs are whipped which makes them extra fluffy and creamy. A Fresh Quiche special is made daily & served with a bowl of fresh fruit. The three meat quiche was delicious, super moist and full of meat. I tried the Reuben sandwich. It is out of this world, with onion rings that I couldn't stop eating! Crispy delicately made and tasty as could be! And don't forget to go over to the bakery counter, each time we picked up snacks for later, the brownie was excellent, as was a coconut pecan everything bar just great. And if you like a good cup of coffee, theirs is roasted locally, robust great flavor, best cups I've have had in Florida! Thanks Zoe's

A prime rib special worth remembering -- just not for the reason you think…read more I had breakfast here a couple of weeks ago, and the waitress told me I had to come back on Saturday for the prime rib special. She said it was so good and so popular that it sold out early, and encouraged me to get there early. So I did. I arrived about an hour and a half after opening, expecting this supposedly legendary Saturday special. The restaurant was maybe one-third full. My husband ordered a hamburger, which was thoroughly average. I ordered the prime rib. Unfortunately, the prime rib was anything but special. It was brown, and when I cut into it, the first two bites were so fatty that I couldn't eat them. I hadn't eaten anything else on the plate either. I simply told the waitress that I really wasn't going to eat it and asked her to take it back. And then came the truly memorable part. The chef/owner came storming over to our table and yelled at me, essentially demanding to know what was wrong with the prime rib and telling me that everybody was eating it and that it was good. Apparently, my taste buds were the problem. I wasn't rude. I wasn't looking for a free meal. I didn't make a scene. I simply didn't like the food and wasn't going to eat it. Somehow, that warranted being confronted and yelled at by the person running the restaurant. The waitress looked embarrassed by the entire exchange. I felt embarrassed for the restaurant. We paid our bill, and I still tipped the waitress on the full amount because her behavior wasn't the problem. And here's the irony: of the relatively small number of people in the restaurant, only a handful were actually eating the prime rib. So much for the "get here early because it sells out" warning. Maybe their prime rib is wonderful to some people. Food is subjective. But being yelled at by an owner because you politely returned a meal you couldn't eat is not subjective. That's simply bad customer service. A restaurant can have an off night with the food. What it shouldn't have is an owner who makes a paying customer feel unwelcome for having an opinion about it. I came back because I was told this was a Saturday special I shouldn't miss. They were right about one thing: I won't miss it again.

My husband visited today 4/23/2026 and said the food was good, but his experience with 1 particular staff was uncomfortable and unwelcoming. On her way I'm going inside, a woman approached him rudely in a way that made him feel like he didn't belong there. She didn't greet him or anything. After he had already ordered his food and paid for it, he was sitting outside waiting , she approached him with an attitude and said "Do you need a menu or something, or are you just hanging out?" As if he wasn't supposed to be there. This was completely unnecessary and made him feel disrespected. I later called to speak with a manager about the situation. The woman who answered was unhelpful and unprofessional. She questioned who I was, refused to clearly identify herself at first, and would not let me speak to a manager. She even told me to come so she could meet me and I didn't understand that at all. She then hung up on me. When I called back, she ignored my call, but answered when I used a different phone. At that point, she said she would put me on hold so she could tell her side of the story to the manager first before letting me speak, which is not how customer concerns should be handled. Overall, while the food may be decent, the customer service was extremely poor and needs serious improvement. No customer should be made to feel uncomfortable or dismissed like this.
