I was really dissatisfied when I ate here last night. For the amount I paid I would expect impeccable service and great food but I we received the opposite. The food took about 40 minutes to come out and when it did, half of it was cold. The waiter Hunter got my order wrong 3 times and forgot to bring our ordered drinks several times. The scallops were fishy and the creme brûlée was burnt. Never going here ever again and I would advise anyone to take their money elsewhere.

This was our first visit to Cafe Thirty-A and we went for the 5:00 two for one entree hour. This is a highly rated fine dining restaurant, so we expected a certain ambiance even at 5:00. The place was absolutely jam packed on this Thursday evening and the noise level was so high we couldnât hear each other across the table. The wine list is fabulous.....quite extensive. Our server explained that certain entrees cannot be paired for the special, so we ordered the lobster and the yellowfin tuna. The lobster came with truffled mac and cheese and was divine. The tuna itself was magnificent but what lay beneath was just way too salty....almost like pure soy sauce. I must say that our server, Don, was wonderful!Valet parking is $5 plus gratuity. We had planned on a more relaxing venue and were really disappointed. Compared to Paradis in Rosemary Beach, this is not even close.Thank you for your feedback. We hope you will join us again.

I'm not even sure where to start.... Reception was cold and uninvitingBar service was a little light on the options but a solid pour. Easily the best part of the trip... Roof Top Bar wasn't open due to weather.Waitress was either inexperienced or..... Wasn't very personable at all. The menu was a bit limited considering my meal was a Mish mosh of marginal flavors for a pork chop. She also served our party very warm champagne.. again, not impressed. To top off the experience, we ordered the banana's foster... One server brought out what she said was creme brulee... To which we assumed was the wrong table. Our waitress grabbed the plate, had some Gerber baby food bananna flavored goo warmed up and brought back out to us. No actual banana, no flamey presentation, nothing... When asked if it was banana foster, she replied " The foster is on the bottom".... At least she said that with a straight face.... Two tastes were all that was needed to leave it alone. Didn't feel we were wanted past that point so we paid and gladly left.There was a complimentary shuttle service which was a plus, we couldn't leave fast enough . I recommend going elsewhere. For the atmosphere, selection, and the price, it's not worth it...

We were seated at 6:30 but didnât receive service till 7:00 pm. Should have taken that as a precursor of what was to follow and left. Bland tasting food with high prices and slow service delivered in a sterile environment with annoyingly loud electronic music thumping in the background. Wonât be returning.
