We’ve lunch here yesterday – Saturday.
The location is great, on the Hillsborough River, with plenty boat slips at 1:30pm.
It has indoor and covered outdoor areas. We sat out. All tables are for max 8 people, benches with no back support.
The service is slow, both drinks and food – got our food exactly an hour later. Our girl is gracious and lovely. The few waiting staff I saw, are young girls who wear tight outfit (not unifform). I would expect them to be sporty but instead, I feel lifeless. I yielded to a tall girl after bathroom. She opened the door and just left. Ok, maybe she was juggling two drinks on the tray … I would use my body to hold the door for the next person IF my hands are occupied …
The foods: average bar food. I’ve Little Neck clams, the two pieces of toast are delicious. Chicken wrap is good.
As we were leaving, a band came to set it up. One member wore a Brookly NY leather jacket honoring the fallen heroes on Veterans Dat. I asked him if he was from Bly and he replied a big YES -:). Then asked me if I’m from Thailand or Philippine. I replied, Africa.
“Really?”
Really sir.
Thanks for these who served.
