What diners say — our read

Whatever the overall score says, the last stretch of reviews is the weaker one. Where the staff comes up, the rating that follows averages 4.2, so it reads as a strength. What it costs follows at 20% of reviews, where ratings average 4.0.

More reviewers landed on 5 stars than any other score — 12 of 15. 12 of 15 rated reviews are four stars or higher; 3 are two or lower. What nobody raises here is tidiness — it goes unmentioned across all 15 reviews.

On the health side, the most recent DBPR inspection returned a B (87/100) with 1 high-priority, 1 intermediate, and 2 basic violations — middling, much like the reviews. That result dates from December 12, 2025. Across its inspection history the kitchen is declining, which argues for reading the older reviews with caution. That puts it ahead of 27% of graded kitchens in St. Lucie County. What the inspector actually wrote up: in-use food dispensing utensils properly stored and handwash sinks accessible.

Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

    Really good food

  • June 20, 2026

    The servers were very nice but the food was not the greatest, there's an issue with the flavor, texture and temperature. Also the prices are over priced for what you get. I used to like getting take out when I used to work in the area. This place definitely fell off.

    Some better deals on the food.

    The best service ever, mind you it's just a chain restaurant but service was on par with top ⭐places 👍

    I went here visiting family. We had a party of 9 and we were seated quickly. The food was good I had a Santa Fe salad , and we also had a triple dipper for appetizers. Plenty of good options and even a healthy selection.

    We came in with 16 people around dinner time on a weekday. We were seated in 5 minutes. The service was excellent. The kids were attended to, the orders were correct and brought out on time. In the past this was not the case. This was a good experience at a fair price 👍

    Vince is the best bartender ever. Great recommendations from the ultimate Cajun with jalapeño sausage and the cookie skillet and chocolate fudge mix was amazing. Please bring back peach snaps and baileys!! But besides that we love Vince. We always look forward to coming every Friday to see Vince to receive awesome service!🥰🥰
