   The food was spot on and every bite was great. The only complaint was service was extremely slow, which was frustrating as it wasn’t busy when we arrived. As it got busier, service was even slower.

   Yesterday we came to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday. We were taken to the table promptly. However our service was not good at all. Our server only took drink orders for half the table. We had to ask him to do the rest of the table. It took 2hrs to recieve our order which came to the table cold. We sent items back to be prepared hot. We watched him check on and serve three other tables before telling us our food would be out shortly. This happend twice in a 15 minute timeframe. A Manager finally came to the table to speak with us about our service. However, from start to finish we were very disappointed with our service and hospitality.

   Nice outdoor table near end by live band. However, service was terrible. It took an hour to get our dinner and we have young kids so that made things worst. Server didn’t check on us. I had to go to bar to order a drink since we never saw him. Never had to do that ever. My wife had to leave with kids before I got the check because it took too long and they were restless. He went through the motions at the end being oblivious and saying how was everything without caring. I said not great and I just want the check. No response. Won’t be back. Everything else on our first night was great at the hotel including staff up front who were so nice and accommodating.

   We arrived early and had the dinning area to ourselves. We had a very attentive and personable waiter, Phil. He was covering tables inside, patio and the pool bar area. He kept up with every one. Excellent NY strip and Cauliflower Tempura. Always a great experience.

   Delicious food! The tuna was great. The scallops served over a bed of grits were amazing! We loved our server Phil! He was friendly and very attentive. We liked the place so much that we went the next day for breakfast. It was fantastic also. I highly recommend Plank’s Tavern!

   Plank's always has good food and service. I like that the menu changes seasonally so that I get to try different things, but having some standard stuff you can count on also.

   We were surprised that the restaurant was inside a hotel and wondered about it because many of those types of restaurants are just OK. The Plank's Tavern was an excellent restaurant that far exceeded our expectations. The menu was varied as was the night's specials. The wine list was outstanding with wines from the US and Europe. The staff was very attentive and helpful with the menu. Someplace we will definitely return to.

    The service was top notch and the food was fantastic! The pork chops and LI Strip were cooked perfectly. The Big A** Pretzel is worth making a trip just for a snack. Really nice wine list also. Next trip north we will definitely be stopping in.

    My family and I enjoyed dinner at Planks for my dad’s birthday as a group of 12. Our group can sometimes be “prickly” and our server was wonderful at honoring our requests and making sure we were all comfortable including adjusting the A/C and temperature in the dining room, managing similar drink and food orders with small tweaks for each person, AND splitting our checks which was unexpected but appreciated! Each person in our group has different dietary preferences and requirements, and the menu at Planks was able to cater to all of us. All of our main dishes were brought out at the same time and HOT so we were able to eat together without waiting - a true testament to the skill of the kitchen and chef! Plus everything was delicious! We were very happy with our dinner and Planks was a great place to celebrate my dad!

    We were there for a “special event” that Planks was hosting. The “guest chef” came in to make Pizza. The Pizza was AMAZING. Service was great, drinks are a bit pricy. Was a bit loud, but that was for the event. They had a freaking DJ! Overall a great experience.

    The place was packed, which was a good thing because it was to support Autism Awareness with a special guest pizza maker. We’ll gladly wait any day to support a good cause. There was a DJ playing music that really didn’t fit the weekday.

    The food was excellent, but the DJ hired had the music TOO LOUD. Even when politely asked to turn it down he did not. It made it very difficult to have a normal conversation. This was not the place or event to have nightclub type music with the bass turned all the way. Loved that Planks sponsored such a wonderful event. I hope you continue to sponsor other worthy causes.

    Dined at the bar and bartender service was great. Food was fine but we actually prefer the lunch menu vs dinner. But always enjoy Plank’s especially in the summer outside.

    We were seated in the corner by the fireplace. This was a cozy and warm and made us feel like we had the place to ourselves. Dalton treated us well. Glad to see him working with a good crew. Bus staff (Matt) was very attentive.

    The bacon wrapped pork tenderloin with sweet corn risotto was the best meal I have had in a long time at a restaurant. The presentation, flavor and balance of the dish was absolutely perfect! Our server, Patrick, was extremely friendly, helpful and professional! The ambiance of the restaurant is lovely with a great vibe & comfortable atmosphere. Highly recommend!

    Spa mother-daughter getaway concluding with a very nice dinner at Plank’s. Plank’s is DEFINITELY the place to be in St Joes in January, it was hopping! Noise level high. A fellow local spa guest mentioned it was the best restaurant in town. Apparently it was the first day of a new menu so service was a bit slower than usual, but the food was tasty. We enjoyed oysters, caesar salad, sliders w skinny fries, Gouda Mac n cheese, asparagus and a caramel brownie sundae. Our faves were the sliders, fries and Gouda Mac. Delish! Asparagus was a bit too greasy and slightly overcooked. However, overall we were very satisfied, full (!) and would certainly return if back in the area.
