From the appetizers to the main course and dessert, every dish was a masterpiece. Chef Steven Rojas has truly brought a culinary gem to the area. My wife and I gladly make the drive from Lakeland to savor these epic creations. Our only regret? Not discovering this place sooner! Do yourself a favor and indulge in the best food Central Florida has to offer.

We arrived 20 minutes early and were seated promptly. We ordered drinks and appetizers from our server Ethan. Our dinners were ordered when the apps came. They were served after we were finished with the appetizers and the table had been cleared. We tasted bites of each other’s meals. The Shepherds pie and Irish stew were the favorites at the table. The fish dinners were good, too, with a large portion. We would have stayed for dessert but had tickets for a show at Kia Arena.
