    Our food was excellent. The calamari is tender with a great marinara sauce. My grouper was excellent. Out friends enjoyed their meals as well. Excellent wine list. Great variety and value offers. Our server did a great job. It was quite busy, so we waited a bit for our entrees, but not absurdly long. We will definitely go back. Nice job

    There is a reason that this restaurant had availability on Valentines Day. While not uncomfortable, the decor is that of your Croatian auntie. Service is lackluster. The food lacks in imagination, presentation, and is overly salted. That said: If you are of a certain age, I can see how this place would have great appeal

    This is a little hidden gem in belleair. Food was delicious and great value. Very cute inside. We had a wonderful time for Valentine’s Day. They had live music. Service was a little slow but it was Valentine’s Day so understandable. No big deal. We plan on coming back for sure.

    Had an early Valentine dinner with my wife and another couple. We are frequent flyers at the Daily News and, as usual, were extremely pleased with our visit. Excellent food and servie! Kudos to our waiter, Allen, and his brother, Luca for making the evening great!

    Went for lunch. Very nice family run restaurant. The staff are very kind and attentive. We were really happy with our service. We tried the salad, fish and chips and steak and cheese sandwich. All were good. The standout probably was the steak and cheese. I think this is one of their top lunch items. We ordered dessert. They have incredible gelato. We had hazelnut. It was very good. Reminded me of Cristinos nearby. Some of the best gelato in the area for sure. It’s a hidden gem. I think more people need to know about this place

    Outside of the building is so unassuming we didn't expect such a beautiful interior! Food was excellent as was the service. Soft music background. Plenty of time between courses. We were there during the Super Bowl so it wasn't crowded. It was a wondrful evening.

    Took 25 minutes after seating to get waiter to table. Guest arriving 20 minutes after us got seated and got drinks before we saw waiter. Noise level too loud and THEN a musician was added to that mix. Not a good night for our group.

    Food was wonderful, service impeccable, cozy atmosphere and Saturday music was a plus and the music wasn’t so loud as to ruin your dinner with your table mates. A very pleasant and lively dinner experience. Highly recommend the lamb, the shirt ribs and the Chilean sea bass!
