I certainly would NOT, I repeat NOT go to Luiginos as we have been there many many times and food is subpar, clientele is sketchy and waited over 2 hours, with reservations on a show night at The Sharon and the food was awful. Our entire party of 12+ was extremely unhappy with the service and the food. Seems that the staff just does not care about their own place nor their guests.

"been there many many times"...I gotta ask...why?

Sakura is not in Spanish Springs-honestly, in a warm weather environment-you have to be very, very carefaeful about eating raw seafood--there are more parasites in warm water environs than you care to know.

I love sushi-but I will not eat it in Florida--I had a neighbor who died from eating contaminated oysters in Clearwater Beach

What does clientele is sketchy mean ?

And I got some kind of garlic bread or something that wasn't advertised as a pizza at Flippers and thought that was the best "pizza" around.

Sketchy -means on the verge of being institutionalized-we stopped at Luigino's bar for a cocktail before seeing a show at the Sharon--the "Bar Flies" who live there love the cheap prices and love to get in your face about their personal attitudes--I mean leaving their seats & standing next to you

On the verge of being scary

Given them many many chances and they just cannot seem to get it right...Just as others are saying, the people in which they are attracting is a bit... they are getting known for activity in which we do not want to be associated with. To each their own.

I must be missing something. What kind of activity is going on? I've been there and seen a lot of friends there. No sketchy people or weird activity.

We went to Luigino's Saturday night after the car show and the food was very good. The service was a little slow and we had to make a correction on a bill overcharge but otherwise we were pleased with the food and dessert.

Dear OP, one thing I have learned after five years of being on this forum is not to ask for a restaurant recommendation. No matter what restaurant is named, half of the posters will love it and half will hate it. I just go try the different places myself and find what suits me. Best of luck and enjoy your show!
