    If, ever there was a reason to move to Florida, it is Cafe Chardonnay. Fabulous food, outstanding professional service, and one of the best wine lists around. Tonight the Mrs. had blackened grouper and I went for the rack of lamb. Both were prepared to perfection. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Kind of an unlikely location, but as a result there is plenty of parking, and I sense that most of the diners are loyal locals. We are not locals but come here just to visit Cafe Chardonnay, one of our favorites anywhere.

    The food was delicious, creative and very well prepared, although the 2 cocktails, while unique, were slightly off balance. Service was spot on. The decor was nicely done but a bit noisy and cool. Overall, Ona we had a great meal that was a good value and came back multiple times.

    We’ve been the Aquagriile several times and it never disappoints. The menu is very creative and delicious. The cheesy bread and deviled egg appetizers are amazing. You can choose your preparation of all their fish choices which all sound yummy. One member of our party had the Asian style mahi and I couldn’t find a crumb left on her plate. I had the fish tacos and you had a choice of2 or 3 with either a yummy salad or Parmesan fries on the side. Our waiter Alex was amazing and very knowledgeable about the menu. Great night had by all

    If you are searching for a unique, delicious and extraordinary dining experience - this hits all the marks. This was our second time dining with Jacob and Nadia, and round 2 catapulted us more deeply in love with their entire operation. Attention to detail is beyond exceptional here. They have every single nuance of the experience dialed - this is a multi-sensory journey - the visual quality of the room, the dark walls, perfect lighting and gorgeous plating and utensil selection - the playlist coming out of the speakers, which is raised and lowered at the perfect times, coinciding with the introduction of each course and pairing....the rich and delicious flavors, textures and adventure that is Jacob's food - perfectly paired with the incredibly interesting and educational journey that is Nadias liquid orchestra. These two are beyond, beyond. I will also give an extra mention to the incredibly thoughtful non alcoholic beverage pairing service offered - as a fellow sober human walking this life surrounded by alcoholic intoxication - I am extremely proud of Jacob for his sobriety and the bold stand he has taken to curate and provide this non alcoholic option - which I might add, is the best collection of non alcoholic beverages to ever hit my lips. Beyond 5 stars, so grateful we found you all - of course we will be back!

    Did not honor time reservation time that was booked several weeks on advance. We were told they were over booked. Table they put us at was noisy by bar and too large for party of six. Conversation not easy at this picnic table. Otherwise, it was a lovey, hopping restaurant. I will try again in the future Food vert delicious. Out door table was nice.
