Went out for lunch on Father’s Day. Nice crowd, beautiful restaurant and space. I didn’t know they only serve brunch on Sunday’s so it was a different menu than the lunch menu I previewed . We ordered, all three of us, the smash burger on the lunch menu and the accommodated us. It was delicious. Our waitress was🤔lil indifferent. Not impolite but not super interested. All in all we would go back. It’s definitely worth it.

Every other time we've been there has been good, but unfortunately, not this time. The server was rude and sighed loudly when asked for more that one tiny serving of sugar for coffee for 5 people. Also got upset when we asked for cream. Fans super loud and manager refused to move us to another table with same # of seats. No one else sat there the entire time. Menu was limited. We were told, "Hope your cocktails are ok because we don't have all the ingredients." Disappointed that I bought my dad here for Father's day.

Was a very relaxing dinner on Thursday evening (6/12/2025). The outside dinning area wasn’t crowed which helped keep the noise low. Food was well prepared and nicely presented. The food was very tasty. This was my second dinning experience and I will definitely be back.

The perfect spot for afternoon lunch or brunch, especially if you’re traveling with kids. There is a great outdoor secure area where kids can be entertained while parents enjoy fun creative beverages and a tasty good quality casual meal. The menu is simple but there is something for everyone. There is indoor and outdoor dining seating, and the atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. A gem of a place in downtown Stuart.

Disappointing Experience Despite the Ambiance The atmosphere of the place was actually quite nice, which is what initially drew us in. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. The food was mediocre at best, nothing memorable and definitely not worth the price. The real issue, however, was the service. It was disorganized and inattentive throughout the night. But the worst part came when it was time to pay. At no point during multiple interactions were we told that large group checks could only be split three ways. This crucial detail was only mentioned at the very end, leaving our party scrambling to figure out payment on the spot. When we brought up the issue, instead of offering any kind of apology or assistance, the waitress responded with a sassy, sarcastic attitude—like we were somehow being difficult for not knowing their obscure policy. It was incredibly unprofessional and completely soured what was already a disappointing evening. Nice atmosphere or not, I won’t be returning—and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who values decent service or basic courtesy. Odd individuals on the team, all around.
CoLab KitchenResponded on May 17, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’d like to take a moment to clarify a few things regarding our check-splitting policy. For large parties, we limit check splits to three ways. This policy is in place to ensure smooth service for all of our guests—processing a high volume of separate checks can significantly delay service across the dining room. Two of our managers did visit your table to explain this, as we understand how important transparency and communication are. Additionally, we make every effort to communicate this policy when large party reservations are booked. That said, we never want a guest to leave feeling dismissed or disrespected. We are looking into your comments regarding the tone of the interaction, and we will address it internally.
