- CCarmellaTampa / Central Florida West •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI love this location of Patrizia’s and it has been my 3rd time there. Pro: Food - fabulous; Staff :Friendly and attentive Atmosphere: nice and above average. Con: It was busy but we waited at the bar for a drink for almost 10 minutes, clearly there should have been another bartender on. The bartender was really doing the best he could. Also when booking, it asks if you are celebrating something, to which I answered yes, a birthday, thinking there would have been a candle in dessert , or something said, to which there wasn’t. While not a huge deal to me that it wasn’t acknowledged, it should not be asked when making the reservation. BUT -I will return!More infoPatrizia's - Fort LauderdalePrice: Moderate• Italian• Galt Mile•4.6
- VVikramVIPOrange County •39 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoLoved the food. Everything was very good, from the baby gem salad to the rock shrimp to the miso soup to the Wagyu Bulgogi. Beautiful ambience in the afternoon sitting outdoors in the pleasant air watching the blue ocean, beach and people walking by. Music was not too loud so one could enjoy a conversation. Service was pretty decent. All in all a very enjoyable leisurely Saturday brunch.More infoTakato RestaurantPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Central Beach•4.8
- MMattVIPSan Diego •57 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOur reservation was for 9:15, as that was the 1st available slot when i went on Open Table to find a restaurant. We arrived at 7:50 and requested early seating and went to the bar, but it was very small and packed. BUT, the W has a great lobby bar and we enjoyed our time until dinner. Our waiter was one of the best service persons we have ever had. He recommended that the chef slice our filet, which we shared the mid-sized portion. If you come here, ask for Enrique !!More infoSteak 954 at the W Fort LauderdalePrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Central Beach•4.7
