Bonefish Grill, Lakeland

Hello and greetings from the food ninja reporting for go gin chow restaurant reviews. My take on Bonefish Grill, the decor is warm and up beat with a nice open floor plan. The food was of great quality but a little more on the pricier side but not too much and the service was great. So now back to the food. I can say that the food was pleasurable to the eyes and to the taste buds. I was happy and so was my stomach and our server was pleasant and attentive but during our dining experience we were confronted by the night manager, confronting us on our picture taking. It seems maybe he was a little rattled by us. Not sure why, it didn't seem to bother the other customers and none of the other customers complained to us or to the staff.  We took these pics at our table and of the food we ordered, no where else. So in my opinion I think that the night shift management could use some tweaking. Because of that confrontation it made the atmosphere unbearable but we hung in there like champs and finished our meals even with that mishap I don't think I will visit  that Bonefish Grill, but I will go to others. But don't let that discourage you from going there, just don't  take any pics ha ha. So take it from the food ninja, Bonefish Grill is a nice place to eat at and you will enjoy!

Siesta Key Oyster Bar

This is the food ninja for go gin chow restaurant reviews it is my pleasure to give my review on a great place in Siesta Key. Its called the Siesta Key Oyster Bar. I have been going here for some time and enjoyed it every time very much.  This place is great.  It is welcoming and always buzzing. Everyone there is there to have great conversations accompanied by great food and service and you never leave hungry. The oysters are very nice you definitely need to have those when your there go during happy hour  from 3-6 pm. The servers are polite and attentive. They do the best they can in busy little place, but that's only inside. They have a great wrap around deck for more seating area. Their clam chowder was really nice and hardy and their fish sandwich is a winner no matter what kind of fish you get. If you look around you will see that me and my bro were there, you will find our dollar bill to help with they decor hanging around. Here is a clue it is near the bar next to the video game and you have to look up. So please stop on in over there and get a great bite to eat with great service so take it from the food ninja please enjoy!

This is Shadow reporting from Siesta Key in Sarasota.  Ranked America's No. 1 Beach for 2011  by Dr. Beach, you will find powdery white sand and crystal clear water.  Just a small trek from the beach is Siesta Key Village.  Lively little place with lots of goods eats.  Today we are visiting one of our favorite places.  Siesta Key Oyster Bar.  Best time to come is for their Oyster Happy Hour for which they have every day from 3 pm - 6 pm.  Raw oysters sold by the dozen are Half Price!  Louisiana Crawfish is also served at a huge discount.  Oysters are terrific here, very fresh.  Crawfish is also very good and is served like a gumbo with potatoes, Andouille sausage, corn or the cob, celery and Cajun seasoning.  There are about 11-12 crawfish per order varying from medium to small.  Just alternating between oysters and crawfish during happy hour will fill you up at a steal.  Clam chowder is very rich, with great traditional flavor, but broth is a little thin.  Service is friendly and very efficient.  Decor is great.  Very lively.  The walls and ceiling are lined with dollar bills with personal notes from their patrons including us.  If you are visiting this place.  See if you can find ours.  Happy eating.

Nara Deva

Welcome to go gin chow restaurant reviews by the food ninja. Today I would love to give you my take on a great Thai restaurant in Orlando close to Mall at Millenia.  It is called Nara Deva here they keep it authentic and delicious.  Wow. I was truly impressed by the food quality and service.  The decor was clean and traditional. We were welcomed with a smile that to me is great service. Now the food in words it was so good it was like home cooking. I must of gained 10 lbs before I left there and the prices were up there so if your willing  to drop some cash for a great smile, great food and good service this is your place. so take it from the food ninja please enjoy!

Shadow here.  Excellent place for Thai.  Prices are expensive, but so is everything else in this area, it is by the Millenia Mall after all.  The quality and selection of food are definitely worth it.  Menu is huge and has pictures of the food which is great.  The menu also lists the dishes in Thai as well as English, which is a good sign.   The shrimp rolls were very good and were wrapped with ground pork as well as wonton pastry, a nice touch.  The crab rolls (Hoi Jor) were sliced much thinner than I am used to for this dish, but tasted great.  Mixed Seafood Papaya Salad was superb, very tasty and garnished with paper thin slices of grapefruit, but a word of caution, the scallops are raw.  The Northern Style Pork Chops and Spicy Tomato Dip was definitely of interest as it not typically found on most Thai restaurant menus.  Pork was cooked well, dipping sauce was a tad too sweet.  Soft Shell Crab with Yellow Curry was my least favorite, but still tasted great and was spicy and we requested it.  Sticky rice is served in traditional basket woven containers.  Service was very efficient and considering that there were only two servers, they did a great job, however they could be a little friendlier.  Bathrooms are super clean.  Decor is nice, wilderness lodge-like rustic wooden tables and chairs with interior decorated with traditional Thai wood carvings and statues. Definitely one of the best Thai Restaurants around.  Happy Eating!
