Phyllis G’s Enigma

I had the macadamian encrusted grouper that was delicious. Our table also had the house special Cuban pulled pork, black bean soup, and salmon. We drank white sangria. Service was prompt and accurate; prices reasonable. We’ll definitely be back soon.

went here Jan 14^th with a group of 8 people to celebrate 2 birthdays. Food was fair my pork was very tough and my wifes fish was so so.
Sangria was very good and wait staff was very attentive but I think they are mostly family.
Not sure if we would go back again too far to travel for a just OK meal

Any time we are in the general area of this part of Florida, we stop in for dinner, usually with one or two other couples we visit who live here. Every time we have gone, the service is great, attentive and helpful. Sangria is awesome! The coconut grouper is the best I’ve ever had anywhere and I order it every time! My wife loves her skirt steak, and the others in our party all order either a fish or steak dinner, and everyone always walks away saying «we need to come here more often»! Salads were small but good, fresh delicious bread and we never seem to have room for dessert! Someday… lol! Highly recommended for dinner anytime!

Really great atmosphere. Really great service. Food ⁹⁄₁₀.

Worst service, very average food. Sat for ten minutes before anyone came over for drink orders. Skirt steak tasted very greasy like it was marinated in oil. They never came around to fill soda glasses or coffee cups or ask us if we wanted anything else. No bread served. Service was awful!

The enigma as others have indicated is the menu including seafood Cuban and Italian. Our group of 8 was mostly disappointed but I think it stemmed mostly from the service. Yes, they were full on a Saturday night but waiting for water, bread and basics was unacceptable. Delivery of appetizers and salads was not only slow but wrong items came with slow replacement. I had French onion soup to start which was excellent. The salad was nice and my entire of spaghetti with meat sauce was nicely prepared and had a nice spice to it. My wife had the Cuban skirt steak which I finished for lunch the day after and it also was very good. Staff tried to make amends for the slow service by bringing more sangria and beers. Instead of more booze a few desserts would have been more appropriate for all to share and by that time the crowd had dissipated.
The check came to $ 50 per couple without tip and quite reasonable. We’ve been to Phyllis G a number of times over the past 7 years but not for at least 2 years. I would return and expect to find the service better. However just to be safe I’d hedge my recommendation by suggesting you plan to be patient and then enjoy good food at reasonable price.
Also, the atmosphere is an enigma. Don’t expect anything more than a remodeled gas station and you’ll be ok.

I don’t review often but when I do it’s for am amazing restaurant. The husband and wife duo really seem to put their hear and soul into each dish.
I had the veal marsala and honestly they nailed it. The sauce was in point and the pasta was cooked perfectly.
It’s a very special restaurant to take the family to our what not. The husband took our order and let us order the dishes to our preferences.
The only thing you should be aware of its that the service might take a hair longer because the couple is running everything, but it’s WORTH it.

We have been regulars for a number of years. The veal chop is always my staple but all the seafood is fresh and plentiful. Homemade San Gria white or red is an excellent compliment to all dishes. Prices relative to quality and portions are very in line. Not sure why the negatives as my wife and I are are always pleased by the service and food. Keep up the good work.

I agree with most posts, the menu is all over the place, it’s Cuban, American, Italian… but what they do serve even though it’s all over the place is great and great portions! The service is good, can be hectic at times but still never bad service. I say, come here when you’re not rushing, sit outside (when the weather permits) and enjoy.
