My family and I heard wonderful things about this restaurant and decided to have Sunday brunch here. We made a reservation, arrived to the restaurant at 12:40. We were quickly greeted by the manager and sat. Our server who claimed she had been working with the restaurant for 3 months was slow from the start. She came to take our orders for smoothies and food. We ordered a salad with salmon, banana pancakes, and a Wagyu burger. She would periodically check in with the table, go to the back to see if our smoothies or food and ready and would come back empty handed with an excuse. We watched as other people were sat, there was a table beside us where two ladies ordered the same smoothie as me and they arrived after we did. At 1:18 the first smoothie arrived. We ordered 2. At 1:30 she came without food and informed us they ran out of the mix for the smoothie I ordered and asked did we want a soda on the house. I said no thank you, she said she was going to check on the food she would be back. She came back out with a plate for a different table that once again, arrived after we did. She didn’t stop on her way back to the kitchen. I patiently waited for her to come back out. She did not, I got up from the table and went to look for the manager. I found the manager and expressed to her what happened and told her we were really disappointed, we would pay for our drink but we were ready to go at this point. It had been an hour and 10 minutes and no food, one smoothie, a coffee cup and water glasses on our table. The manager said don’t worry about it I’ll comp the food, sorry about that and we left. I really wanted to try the food but after terrible service like that...
Read moreMy husband and I where just in town for business for the day and I am vegan and my husband is meat eater. I was looking for a nice elegant restaurant to have dinner, because I am vegan there are not a lot of places that I like to eat but was fortunate enough to find this place. I fell in love with it upon parking. The place is absolutely espectacular, it is small, intimate, and romantic. I was super excited to find this little gem in this town, to my surprise the food was as good as the scenery AND most of the food is FARM TO TABLE. I had VEGAN: beet and carrot tartar, zucchini boat, and chocolate dessert. My husband had the lobster appetizer, the fish in banana leaf and thai rice ( a little extra but the best thing he has had in a long time and the best thing I have smelled ever.) and I couldn’t help myself and tried his rice.... I almost died of how good it was. The customer service is AMAZING Olivia our waitress was super informative and made sure to explain all the dishes in detail. We are definitely coming back! Maybe next time stay the night and take a tour of their vegetable and fruit garden that...
Read moreWent based on a review in Naples Daily News and glad we did. Tucked in the hotel Shangri la in Bonita Springs. Offers indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the beautiful grounds (nice walk after eating). If you enjoy creative healthy real food there's something for everyone, The grilled octopus was tender and delicious, the vegan burger served with crispy onions was flavorful and satisfying, the french beef burger was amazingly juicy and tender, the artic char was grilled perfectly with crispy skin on the bottom served over a creative flavorful version of tabbouleh, the homemade chai iced tea was aromatic and refreshing and the vegan key lime was the perfect finish. Portions are plentiful and you will leave satisfied. Thank you Olivia for your friendly and...
