We stopped by for lunch today and bartender Cheryl greeted us with a happy smile. We found them on google and yelp and had to try the redfish sandwich blacked and my goodness it was delicious. The sweet potatoes fries were great. We started with beet salad which was huge and delicious. Cheryl was very pleasant and suggested the happy hour so after a couple hours walking canal street we came back for the buffalo shrimp and some drinks including a nice whiskey manhanttan made by Lea. She was very sweet and attentive. Will recommend to all our Orlando friends when when they come to NSB. Excellent quality with great prices and service.

We had high hopes as this restaurant came recommended. We went with party of 6 the service was slow but that’s to be expected after Covid and us being a larger party-they seem to not have enough staff in general. unfortunately nobody care for the food. The floors were sticky like they had not been cleaned in a long while. The fried green tomatoes were disgusting hard as a rock and freezer burnt. The tomatoes inside seem like they were fried when they were not even ripe yet-totally inedible. The swordfish was over seasoned and very dry. We tried the Caesar salad it was a kale one which we normally love but it was more like a dried up old green brown garnish served on a dinner plate and they did not toss is where we never had a Caesar not tossed except for at maybe fast food. My Sister in law had a chicken dish it was supposed to be stuffed she said it was very dry and tough and they put some thing on top of it but nothing was stuffed again it was not edible. We really wanted to like it maybe it was just an off night The mixed drinks were good and the people that work there were nice enough So we gave 2 stars for that but we don’t think we will be back because it was one thing after another. It was extremely hot as well we were all sweating either the air was broken or they didn’t turn it on enough for all the people that were dining.

Went here for a late dinner Friday night and was pleasantly suprised. Everything from being greeted at the door to leaving was excellent. Service was on point, food was on point. Portions are big and taste is even bigger. I would definitely come again and bring the rest of the family too.
