   Great experience. We sat outside as other reviews said it was loud inside and it was, outside setting was fantastic. Food was fresh, delicious and well worth it. Kinda a farm to table experience. Waiter told us most of the menu is sourced locally. I would recommend and eat here again.

   UleleResponded todayThank you for the great review! We are so glad that you enjoyed dining on our patio. The theme of our cuisine is native Floridian foods and ingredients, prepared in similar methods to those of the Tocobaga tribe that we honor. Of course, they were only sourcing local ingredients when they were around in the 1500's.

   Choose outdoor dining if you want to have a quiet experience...indoor dining is very loud. They have umbrellas and large fans for warm weather and heaters for chilly weather. My favorite entrees are the Pompano and the Seafood Risotto. The parmesan grilled oysters are a fantastic starter, and save room for the pineapple bread pudding with coconut icecream and rum sauce...do what I do and take home part of your entree so you don't leave stuffed!

   UleleResponded todayThank you for the great review, Carolyn! We agree with you on outdoor seating if you prefer a quieter atmosphere, plus you can't beat the sunset views most nights and dining next to a 100+ year old natural spring!

   Overall for one of the best rated restaurants in Tampa a little disappointing. They could not cook filet mignon properly and m’est loaf was fav’ourless . Initial service at the door not very good

   UleleResponded todayWe are sorry to hear that you were disappointed. Were you able to speak to a manager during your visit about some of the challenges? We would have been glad to step in and make corrections to your dining experience. We always appreciate the feedback and opportunity to help.

    Unique setting with a unique menu. Our reservation was for inside, but I wish we had sat outside. The noise in the restaurant was louder than usual and we could not hear the music playing. Sitting upstairs gave us a view of the kitchen while our food was being cooked which was cool. Food was OK although the vegetables were almost raw, and the spinach had too much garlic. We enjoyed the evening, but there are so many other places to try we will not be returning here again.

    UleleResponded todayWe are sorry that you did not find us worthy of a return visit but glad that you decided to give us a try.

    What a wonderful place. We sat outdoors and it was perfect. Inside was pretty nice too. A little loud for me but very nice. Austin, our server was great. He was very personable. We had the Captains shrimp for an appetizer and it was delicious!!!! I had the grouper and scallops and it was definitely a great dish. My husband had the filet topped with crab over mashed potatoes, again perfect. Dessert was the key lime stack. OMG. I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. The manager went to each table to make sure we all enjoyed everything. The way restaurants use to be. We will be back!

    We went here for my dad’s birthday on Sunday. Service was super slow, starting with the fact that it took about 20 minutes just to be greeted by server. While everyone enjoyed drinks and apps (and I enjoyed my meal) no one else liked their main dishes. Due to the long time everything took we didn’t order dessert.

    Spot-on service with a menu that is both creative, colorful and very good, if not outstanding. Seafood is the specialty but there are beef, pork and chicken choices. We had the Pompano, Mahi Mahi and Grouper dishes, which were wonderfully prepared. The okra fries and barbaquoa shrimp were starters. It was crowded on the Sunday afternoon we dined, but I had reserved our table in advance. By 3pm, the hostess said the wait was an hour and 15 min.
