Reviews for Fiona's Restaurant in Bradenton, FL
We are greeted after a couple of minutes. The fabric of the chairs was peeled of on all chairs which was not pleasing to the... eye Once we sat down we waited about 10 minutes before getting service. Once the food was there everything was fine. Food ispretty good. Read more
Just for starters! My father comes weekly there! My issue was 2nd day open after hurricane, My dad and myself went. We were... placed on list for 20 mins, no biggie! When we were seated, Took 10 mins to get drinks! We ordered! There were so many people,and staff was doing jam up job, Specially the one we call little bit! There was one I don’t know name, due to no name tags,But you best bet I know her face. She was one who was having bad day. My dad asked her for refill and wanted to know how muchlonger, very nicely! This woman says I get your drink, But you ain’t been here no hour! Hateful as she was walking away! Ieven said dad,Do you get treated this way when your alone? He said no never! I suggest training employees to leave yourproblems and attitudes outside, We all just went through a hurricane, we all had damage, and went without power! You also dealwith mainly elderly retired customers! To see how my dad and I was treated! Not sure if he will be back, Thank you to the oneswho were busting but with a smile! Read more
Awesome family restaurant. We love their breakfast menus.
Very good. I had the open faced roast beef w/ mashed potatoes and gravy. Definately reminds me of a home cooked meal. Sarah... my waitress was attentive and took good care of me. Highly recommend. My new lunch spot. Read more
I visted on a Sunday afternoon for a lovely lunch with my family. The food was delicious, flavorful, and had great presentation.... Service was prompt and everyone was very friendly. Great experience and will definitely return to try more of their tasty menuitems. Read more
I’d love nothing more than to give this place five stars but I just can’t bring myself to do it. It’s not fair to all the... other well-rounded eateries out there. The decor is fresh and clean, we were pleasantly surprised. The menu was diverse andoffered plenty to choose from, in fact it has us waffling between a couple of no-lose options. Food came out pretty quick andtasted good. So what’s the rub? The service. Sadly, our server was quite good, she was friendly and attentive. The issue wehad was some of the other staff. We were seated near the kitchen, but I’m not sure it mattered, a couple of servers were in aheated dispute nearly our entire visit. They continually yelling at each other every time they would disappear to the kitchen.Things being slammed around and at one point they were so wound up we were waiting for a fist fight to break out. Beyond that,the bad attitude carried itself out to the floor as they were openly criticizing and complaining about guests when leaving theother tables and walking around the front of house. I get it, some patrons are jerks. I don’t know the details, but that comeswith the territory. Disappointing that these servers didn’t have the self awareness to realize their behavior wasunprofessional. Even worse that their co-workers didn’t try and deescalate the situation over the 35+ minutes they continuedto carry on. Inexcusable that the management didn’t immediately put an end to it. Heck, for all we know it might have beenmanagement that was carrying on. Regardless, ownership should take note, as it seems the common thread to anything other thenglowing 5 star reviews ties back to your people issues. Great little dinning spot, service seems to be hit and miss. Sadly ourfirst visit was a resounding miss (unless you’re a breakfast MMA fan, I suppose). Read more
Just went here for lunch. The people who owned Fiona's at a different location that closed 2 years ago has purchased The Recipe... Box and for now there's a banner saying Fiona's. They just opened yesterday, July 1st. We ate past 1pm and the place was stillhalf full on a Tuesday! The food was marvelous! Largest club sandwich I've had! Their sweet potato fries are delightful andtheir prices are very reasonable. You need to try this place. Recipe Box menu through the summer and then they'll be adding someof their own. Staff are very nice and helpful. We will return!! Read more
