I was seated in the bar area, and while the bartender (the one with the beard and long hair, I believe his name was Matthew) was generally nice, his demeanor seemed a bit unprofessional. He had a somewhat disheveled and flustered energy, which impacted the service. In this kind of environment, I think more attention to staff presentation and composure would be beneficial. I overheard other patrons expressing similar concerns, so perhaps additional training could help. On a positive note, my food was good.

We had a wonderful experience at Lazy Dog thanks to Francisco. He was excellent, friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. He checked on us at just the right times, made sure everything was perfect, and handled everything with professionalism and a great attitude. Francisco truly enhanced our dining experience, and we’ll definitely be asking for him again. Outstanding service!

The hostess was absolutely awful in the simple task of getting us seated. At 4pm on Sunday January 4th the restaurant had a majority of tables available. We were originally led to a table by the entrance (a busy walkway for all servers) and we asked for a different table. The hostess said there were no other tables available, while several others were visibly so. She said she had to put us on the waiting list and asked for our names and phone number. I simply asked for any of the other visibly available. Terrible disposition. Totally aloof and distant. The restaurant manager needs to correct this situation.

Came here with family the other night. This was my first time here and I was pleasantly impressed. We had a 630 reservation for seven people and we were seated immediately service was a little slow, but it’s season in Florida and it was also the week between Christmas and New Year’s when all the tourists are in town The restaurant was busy so I’ll give him a pass on this one. The restaurant is big has plenty of seating and the outdoor seating is absolutely beautiful with a nice fireplace just a real warm and cozy vibe. Food was good too. I had blackened shrimp tacos and they were very good and everyone at the table seemed to like what they ordered also. Good prices good vibe. I will definitely be back.

This was our first time visiting, and we were so impressed! The atmosphere is great, and they have a truly amazing and unique menu. We really appreciated how dog-friendly the establishment is, making it a perfect spot to bring the whole family.
The service was top-notch; our server and the entire staff were attentive and made us feel welcome throughout the meal. We tried a variety of items:
Shrimp Tacos & Quesadillas: Both were packed with flavor.
Seasoned Chips & Bacon Candy: These were the perfect starters—the bacon candy is a must-try!
Huckleberry Tea: Refreshing and unique.
Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We are already looking forward to returning and trying more items from their extensive menu!
