    This was our first time and if I could give more than 5 stars I would. It was fabulous. Bread service was superb. The salad was gorgeous. A variety of very fresh greens with an amazing light dressing. Dinner was off the charts delicious and the portion was huge. All ingredients were top quality. Coffee was outstanding. Chef is knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He suggested beers for us that we really enjoyed and we even took some home. We've already made reservations to return. Don't miss this little Lutz gem.

    Very chill ambiance and great location. Service was great, and the food was good. We tried the beef carpaccio and tuna wontons, pasta and scallops, wedge and filet salad, and the grouper tacos - we would have gotten the oysters but they had none. The carpaccio was outstanding!
