    Came for $6.99 burger night. Burger was great, especially for the price. The fries were a bit undercooked. Service was great; our waitress was very sweet and attentive. Probably our fault, but we chose to sit outside and the vibe was just very off. No music or anything.

    Good food. A little dark. I had to use my phone’s flashlight to see the menu.

    Went after wine tasting across the street with friends - knew this place was new from owners at Italian Grill where we often go - good selection, good happy hour pricing, nice/modern atmosphere. So much different than when it was the Irish bar. Everyone enjoyed their meal except one whose burger was overdone (but decided not to complain as they were busy with a large group). Would def go again and try their other offerings - friendly staff. They had someone playing keyboard/singing - he was hard to understand/hear as the keyboard was louder than he was but we enjoyed the meal and atmosphere overall.

    Food was delicious and the rib special was well worth it. Meat just fell off the bone. Service was a bit slow, but overall a nice time

    We absolutely love Neat SRQ and last night was no exception. As always the food was wonderful and a great value. In fact, we will be sad to see the summer specials end. Our biggest challenge last night was the service. We had the wrong beer brought to our table, we had to request silverware and we waited almost 45 minutes for our food. Thank goodness we were not in a hurry and were there to relax. It certainly will not deter us from going again!

    Unfortunately, we left before we had anything to eat or drink, so star ratings on those items should be "N/A." Host was fantastic at seating us even went to the extra effort of bussing a table not directly next to the music duo (they were good!). Scene was very loungey with most people just drinking or lite bites. We were there for dinner and host gave us menus and there we sat. Lounge area was busy, but server stood and chatted with another table (regulars?) getting ready to leave for several minutes without acknowledging us at all. Seemed indicative of how the rest of the night was going to go, so we cut our losses. Had a nice time the other time I went sitting at the bar (just one drink), so hope to give it another shot at some point.

    Another great night at Neat SRQ! We couldn’t ask for a better evening at such an awesome price. Love the food, love the people and love the price!

    Really wanted this to be a good experience with great food… completely opposite!!!! While a 2 year old toddler was running around the entire dining area weaving around each table (soooo annoying) while the parents just sat there, it took us 15 mins to get our cocktails (vodka/club minus a lime-really???). We went intentionally for the $10 ribs that proved to be over cooked, over sauced, with a small side of Cole slaw that was flavorless. I went for a “special” that was beyond disappointing… very dry and, obviously, a poor quality of tuna. Appreciated our pleasant waitress, but we will not be returning. PS. Keep the toddler in a high chair OR at home on a Friday night when people want a quiet night out!
