- DDougSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoSecond time we’ve eaten here, food and service is outstanding. Only negative is noise level, very hard to carry on a conversation or to hear our server. Will definitely return.More infoBar Italia Lakewood Ranch, FloridaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Fruitville, Florida•4.6
- DDanielaVIPOrlando / Central Florida East •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe place is beautiful, from the location to the decoration. You can feel comfortable, and it’s perfect if you want to enjoy a lovely, delicious, yet slightly casual dinner. The food was amazing..I ordered the chorizo pizza, and it was fantastic, from the presentation to the flavor. I also ordered the al pastor tacos and the short rib barbacoa fajitas, and both were delicious. I didn’t get the chance to check out the dessert menu, but since I was there to celebrate a special occasion, they gave us churros with ice cream, which was a lovely touch. I wasn’t a fan of the cocktail..they didn’t have much flavor and tasted watered down..but aside from that, everything was pretty good. NICE AND COZY WEDNESDAY DINNER NIGHT. Worth to try.More infoCasa CamiPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Mexican• Tampa•4.6

- RRebeleeOrlando / Central Florida East •5 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 28, 2024Always a fun family experience us. I especially appreciate all the gluten free options and how knowledgeable the staff is about them. It is also nice that the managers are visible and actively helping assist the servers. Although we miss having a Melting Pot in St. Petersburg, this one is worth the drive.More infoThe Melting Pot - SarasotaPrice: Expensive• Fondue• Sarasota•4.7
