One of the chicken wings was raw. Host came over to apologize. One of the servers came to table with dirty apron. Shrimp appetizer was good. Steak was sub-par.

Went to brunch celebrating my girlfriend’s 55 birthday. We had the Pistachio Madeleine which was terrific and then had the Shands Breakfast which was terrific. The service at Shands was amazing too.

This was our first visit to Shands General. We had a very, very enjoyable experience. We went on a Friday night. The restaurant's activity was jumping with full tables and lively folks who seemed to be greatly enjoying their time. I can't complement the chef enough, along with the staff that kept everything moving at the pace that the tables wanted. We WILL be back again!

My husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary at Shands. From the time we walked in the experience was fabulous. The ambience is perfect, decorated in such a classy style but not uncomfortable or stuffy! The hostess was friendly and welcoming and our server Rob was the best, he answered all of our questions with enthusiasm, made suggestions when asked. He is definitely a foodie and wants his guests to enjoy their meal! The rib eye was cooked to perfection and the whipped potatoes were amazing, lamb shank was falling off the bone. Since it was our anniversary we were treated to complimentary sparking wine and dessert. Overall a wonderful night which was made even better by this experience.

Service was awesome even though it was an extremely busy Saturday night our waiter Drew was on top of everything! Food and drinks were delicious! We were a table of four, we ordered all three of the snacks and all three desserts (not the cheese plate as the dessert) and all were amazing! That lemon meringue parfait was to die for! My only complaint was the noise level. We were in the big room with the bar and it was extremely noisy. Other than that we had a great experience!
