"I've dined in at Hot Tuna a handful of times. Every time, the food is tasty and they get it out to us fairly quickly. I do find myself a little disappointed with portion size, but not egregiously so. In general, the service is always pleasant and the atmosphere is great. Not too loud and the lighting is elegant. Tonight though.... I had a horrible experience. I ordered the Tokyo Stir-fry (chicken), which I've had before and enjoyed well-enough. I'm a big udon fan, so it's pretty hard to disappoint me with an udon dish. Tonight, my food was served and my very first bite sent me reeling and questioning if I was having a stroke or something. The broccoli I put in my mouth tasted like it had been marinated in liquid smoke. This bite tasted horrendously burnt. By the grace of God, I managed to swallow it and not spit it out while my family was enjoying their respective meals. I thought maybe it was just that piece, but the next few bites all proved to taste (although not look) burnt to inedibility. The only decent-tasting part of my dinner were the noodles, but I couldn't justify going through with my meal at that point. Our server, I don't remember her name but she was blonde with a cloth headband, was kind enough to remove the dish from our tab and offer to make me something else. Between my limited diet and the fact that my family was already done with their meals when she came to check in, I didn't want to wait and try for something else. I came home and made a palette cleanser. Looks like a ramen night for me."

"Food 5Service 5Ambiance 5Local 's go back if you haven 't been in a while. You won 't be sorry. I don 't give 5 star 's very lightly. However, for the medium low prices you can 't get better and I give it a 5+.We were in Oldsmar area visiting family and friends for only 4 nights. We stayed nearby and on our first night, just the two of us went to dinner. We chose this restaurant for a change of pace and like to support local owners as much as possible.Fish and Chips: I am not sure that I would call this plate Fish and Chips but it was delicious. I don 't remember the type of fish filet but it was seasoned and fried perfect that was served hot in a beautiful. The french fries were seasoned with white truffle were a fantastic. It also came with a with a creamy Coleslaw, that was perfect match with the fish. I would order this same plate the next day if we went. It was that good! Everything was simply perfect.Lemon Garlic Shrimp Pasta: My wife 's scampi was fantastic too. The pasta was cooked al-dente with a white creamy alfredo-like sauce with lemon that was great. The shrimp was pan seared, tender and cooked to perfection!Tuna Roll: Presentation was a 5 star, however the taste was a just OK. The tuna was fresh but the entire bite was strangely mushy. The taste was good but the texture was not right. I would give it an overall 3.5 or maybe a 4 because I want to remember it better than it was.Dessert: We also ordered a Flourless Chocolate Tarte Pie. Unfortunately, I didn 't get a picture as my wife attacked it! The chocolate pie was covered with a rich melted chocolate sauce and striped with a layer of strawberry sauce. All I can say is that my wife kept pushing me to go back the next day even if it was just for the pie. In fact, she told our server bartender that she was coming back the next day. She really meant it but we ran out of time. TRY IT...YOU WILL LOVE IT.We visited on a Thursday evening about 7pm, and decided to sit at the full-service bar. The bar is decorated very nice that catches your eyes when you walk in. We don 't normally sit at the bar but we loved the feel of the bar. To top it off the bartenders were 5 star themselves. Seriously, great personalities even though they were very busy they were genuine and made us feel welcome. We each only had one drink but that didn 't matter to them.We talked to our friends and family about this restaurant and no one had eaten there since it first opened. No one had great things to say about their visit. However, my sister who is a chef herself, heard that they made changes either the chef or new management, she wasn 't sure. Anyway whatever they did...really worked. I recommend if you haven 't been there lately then go back! PS; for one or two, I suggest the bar!"
