I'm quite fond of this restaurant and have been for years. The calamari is fabulous, and the salads are all pretty good. I frequently order the cheese enchiladas as I'm not much of a meat person and they're always great.
- Pros: Great Calamari, Great Salsa, Cheese Enchiladas!
- Cons: Parking, Waiting for a table

Pleasant and friendly waitstaff. However the food is not prepared well. Rather tasteless and greasy. Be warned, they do not de-vein or completely clean all of the shrimp that goes on their dishes. Portions are small and pricy.
- Pros: Waitstaff
- Cons: Food

Party of Two:
Practically every table is always full, another of many indications that St. Pete has awakened to appreciate fine cuisine, so call ahead.
Look Around:
After dinner, take your time and peruse the shops and bars of Fourth Street.
