Best Seasonal Restaurants in Washington Park

Eddie V’s once again, does not disappoint! It’s our ‘go-to’ restaurant whenever company is in town, special occasions, private dinners or a weekday happy hour. The food is consistently above par and the servers are some of the best in the business! This year, marked our 2nd year in a row that we celebrated our Thanksgiving dinner at the restaurant. Absolutely delicious! Our server, Olga, was a delight! She was patient with us, very knowledgeable about the menu and food preparation, engaging and made us feel special. Thank you once again for a lovely and memorable evening! OH! The trio bands that Eddie V’s hire are terrific too!

We had a wonderful time. We were not sure what to expect as this was our first time eating here. it was recommended by a friend and he was not wrong. The service was great and the food was outstanding. The turkey was cooked to perfection as was the prime rib. One of the things that both my husband and I noticed that even though it as a buffet and they were very busy we never felt at anytime that we were being rushed. We will be going back.

First time dining at Truluck’s but familiar with food and service from Texas locations. We ordered the thanksgiving day meal (plus a crabcake as appetizer, which is always good). We were presently surprised by the turkey meal, extremely flavorful, well seasoned, and larger portions. This location is definitely more Florida, not the moody color scheme and ambience of other restaurants, but equally nice (get rid of the chintzy fake flowers from previously failed restaurant which occupied the space). It’s a great location, great bar, and happy hour menu, so looking forward to returning at another time to enjoy again.

Second time at Takato. Again amazing experience. Had Chefs selection nigiri this time and mochis for dessert. Delicious. Very professional staff. I will certainly return!

Jeff and the rest of the team make the best experience from delicious sushi that can’t be found anywhere else, to a friendly atmosphere that makes for a great time every time - highly recommend.
