Best Date Night Restaurants in Ellenton

Our 4 person group started off at the outside bar while waiting for out table. The cocktails were just ok. Nothing outstanding but they also had a good wine selection. The baked oysters were very dry and hard to remove from the shell. Not juicy at all but very dry. The fried green tomatoes and pork belly were a big hit. The dinner selections were tasty. I had the pompano dish and it was great. The native chili was dry as well. It was meaty but also very dry and lacked moisture or sauce. The desserts were good except the whisky butter cake with blackberries came with 1 blackberry and it was cut in half. I wish it had more berries or some blackberry compote to go with it. Overall nice meal with some improvements to be had on some dishes. I would recommend this place especially with the nighttime ambiance.

Our servers Nicholas and Shelby were amazing and the food was unbelievable. Definitely a great experience

Being new to the area we search out new places to dine other than a chain restaurant. We had a reservation for 6:00pm, decent time for dinner. When we parked there were a couple of cars in the lot, didn't seem to busy so we thought "maybe this place isn't that great?" Walked inside this quaint old house that has been converted into a restaurant, greeted by a very friendly gentleman who showed us to our table. Everyone was very attentive, very timely with water, drinks, apps and our meals. The food was fantastic! Very pleased with our meals. As we sat and ate the dining area was now full, all within an hour or so. Now we know why! We had an excellent time, we can't wait to go back again and try everything on the menu!
