   The Date Night menu is not worth the price. Also, it’s not a good idea to plate hot food with cold (sushi) and then keep that plate next to a warmer. Hot, raw sushi just isn’t that tasty like that. Ribs and sushi on the same plate 🤦‍♀️

   The food was great. The service wasn't. It took 20 minutes after we sat for our server to come back. She immediately went into taking orders for entrees and drinks. Did not ask for our drink order when we were seated or if we wanted appetizers. When the food came, she disappeared again. I had to go find condiments for our table of 7. The restaurant was not crowded which confused us as to why she immediately brought the check and did not ask if we wanted dessert. I guess maybe she had too many tables. The food was good and would still go there again but I won't expect much in the way of service.

   Like many places, probably short staffed unfortunately, took about an hour from time of order to getting the food. My only real issue, the music is really loud, couldn't hear our own tables conversation, and I'm not old.. lol

   We decided to try the weekend brunch at Kona today. First of all, the hostess was extremely rude. Her behavior with the previous guest checking in and then with us was simply unnecessary. She seemed extremely frazzled, even though the restaurant was fairly empty. Our waitress was friendly and helpful, but she continually disappeared for long periods of time. Our food was very slow in coming from the kitchen. It was cold when it arrived and it was missing many of the side items that were listed on the menu. I’m not sure what happened with this restaurant. This used to be one of my favorite dining places, unfortunately, that is no longer true.

    The three of us went for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It was fairly busy due to a single large birthday party but not too crowded overall as was a bit off peak (1:45). The food was fine but the service was off. First our margaritas took a long time to come, then when they did they came with sugar on the rim instead of salt as we’d requested, so we sent them back. Then my lobster avocado toast came without avocado. The server was very apologetic about both mistakes and brought the manager over to help. To the manager’s credit she personally brought the correct drinks and a generous serving of sliced avocado, then comped both my entree and my wife’s. I’m not sure if they have a lot of new people at the bar and in the kitchen but I hope these issues are temporary. The food was good but the rhythm of the meal was completely thrown by these errors so we didn’t enjoy ourselves.

    We were greeted immediately when we arrived. The woman at the desk was gracious and very pleasant. Our waitress was nice and effecient. She was very attentive, checking with us regularly. The food was very good and we had reasonable sized portions. We decided to eat inside and were seated towards the rear nearer the kitchen. This wasn't a bad area by any means, but it was a little dark and not the best air circulation. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

    Birthday disaster dinner. It was a disaster right from where they screwed up my martini to they rushed us through dinner to when they brought the check they brought one total. I put down my credit card when they returned the total was $19 higher. And that wasn’t a tip. I brought it to the attention of the manager. She said that it was an error and that it will appear on my credit card as the lower amount. In not to confident about that, to be determined. Also she was willing to let the server go without getting tipped which I feel is very poor judgment on the manager. We did tip the server we pay them in cash.

    We didn't get seated on time... (20 minutes late.) And then sat there for another 20 min before our order was taken. Drinks took another 20 minutes and when our food came out (a full hour from when we sat down, it was lukewarm.) Im sure the food would have been great if hot - but we didn't have time to ask and our party was starving. Our server was fantastic though and it was clear that they were overbooked and short staffed in the kitchen. Thank goodness for our server - he is the only reason we would come back... manager and hosts were not helpful or attentive. DO NOT GO on the night of a concert or event at Raymond James, they were fully unprepared.

    SLOW!!! Going to an event, server must not have put our order in and blamed it on how busy they were. All other tables were served. Manager tried to make up for it. Even drinks took over 30 minutes to get!!! No organization. Not prepared for a crowd they should have expected.

    The food was excellent even though the service was lacking since they messed up 3 out of the 7 people of my party's dishes. I think it was because they were short of staff since our waiter was also bartending at the same time.

    Didn't get a chance to order. Even with a reservation, it took about 15 minutes to get a table together. Waitress came over within 10 minutes, not too bad. But took awhile to get drinks. Almost right after she sat the drinks on the table. The manager, I'm assuming, came over and asked if we could move. After watching the disorganization and arguing with where we were going to be sitting at the beginning, left a bad taste in ours mouths. We got up and left.
