Restaurants near Southside Park

I visited a charming Italian restaurant in Live Oak, where my wife and I enjoyed Chianti, an Aperol Spritz, and a delicious beef short rib pasta. We appreciated the restaurant's artwork and were so impressed with the balsamic vinaigrette that we took a bottle home.

Excellent service by the friendliest young lady, Karla. Comfy booth, nice ambience. The food was hit and miss. My husband loved his fried chicken sandwich and tater tots. I ordered the salad/noodle dish with salmon. The presetation was gorgeous...until I took a bite of the fish. It was really fishy and left a horrible taste in your mouth. I tried the other end of the fish, still bad. They returned it to the kitchen and I played it safe with a ceasar salad. I asked for light dressing, but they brought the dressing on the side. It was a challenge tossing my own salad in a small bowl with a fork and knife....know what I mean? (Lettuce/croutons/cheese falling outside the bowl.) The salad was just ok. We'll go back, but I think this place is best for burgers and sandwiches. We hope to get Karla again, she was delightful and very gracious. The bad food wasn't her fault, we made sure to still tip her well. ;-)

Great dining experience and great staff, we had a great dinner prior to our concert

Excellent service and great food! Our server kept checking to see if we need anything. The food we ordered were tasty and delicious.

Service was great. I had the french dip and it was just ok. Kind of plane. My boys loved their burgers.
