Visors Rooftop Event Space — Restaurant in Florida

Waitress was very nice and we chose her suggestions of the house ale and my partner picked the spicy cocktail. Also the burrata plate which was a harmony of flavors but did require thoughtful assembly of each bite. For our entrees, My partner ordered wagyu sliders and was worried the patties were well done. I explained thats probably because they are so thin. However I can understand the disappointment because the flavor of a tender beef like wagyu certainly cooks away when well done. We shared a side of fries and they were delicious and crispy i likened them to McDonald’s fries with regards to flavor. I ordered the crab and lobster cakes. I realize these were loaded with lobster and crab chunks but for $21 I won’t be ordering it again for the portion

I’ve tried twice to go to Visors. The first time was during an off weekend for Florida and a private party was being hosted, so it was closed to the public. The bar downstairs was full since it was the only other place to watch football…so left to go to a sports bar. The second time was for the Florida/Florida State game. Again it was closed because they don’t open until 4? Or 6?? I have to say I was quite frustrated again. It’s a college game day. If you are going to advertise as a place to watch UF sports then shouldn’t you be open? When I asked why they weren’t open I was told they didn’t have the staff and the didn’t open until later. So once again, went across the street to a sports bar that was packed. Am I missing something…is Visors not...

I want to emphasize the 5 star for the bar staff that were great - the staff around the private event were randomly hostile to us standing near the private event area.

Main thing I want to point out is the uncomfortably unwelcoming atmosphere the older (unfortunately, white) patron crowd around the bar was demonstrating towards us trying to order a drink at the bar. As alumnus in town for homecoming weekend, the staff around visors (outside of bartenders) and the non-private event crowd were aggressively unwelcoming and really stained our first visit experience to visors/spurriers that we had been excited to have for over a year. We love spurrier, and we love the gators. But we do not love unwelcoming experiences from older patrons that see us...
