“ Delicious pizza and other Italian delicacies. This is a place that I love to visit and hang out. They have a great reverse happy hour, daily food and drink specials. I enjoyed their 4 crown royal Tuesdays in which they have various flavors (not peach though, bummer). If you have a family group or a small group of friends, this place is perfect. Also, they have a great amount of televisions so watching your favorite game is a breeze. ”
“ Been nearly a decade since I was at Florentine Sports Lounge. It was delicious, our waitstaff was fairly new, and she is a true asset. Amazing job! Hope to be back more often! ”
“ Well, well, well. I just found my R&R spot in Michigan. Catrina was a great host. They have a buffet lunch hour or opt for the huge lounge/formal area and have some wine with friends. I travel thru many states (check my reviews) and this is definitely a gem . “ I’ll be back. “(Why does that statement always sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger?-idk) Thanks Florentine. ”
“ Good burger and great pizza. - Coach’s Choice Burger - 12: Savory good. It had a unique savory flavor and found later after asking that it was the Montreal Steak Seasoning that they use. It does give it a slight steak flavor. Ordered medium and received it slightly above medium, but very juicy. I ordered it with lettuce, tomato, ketchup, and mayo. The burger was slightly thinner and larger diameter, but still a large patty (14 to 13?). The bun had a thin, crispy, flaky shell with a light and fluffy inside. It was a bit massive, but you could squish it down if needed to manage it better. I ate it as is. I FORGOT American cheese. I never forget. I normally refuse to eat burgers without cheese, but this time I actually did not notice until I had inhaled. So that must mean it is that good. I’d have to come back and have it with cheese to be sure, but wow. - Fries (comes with the burger): Good. Darker, but not burnt. They were softer down to the last one. Medium to slightly heavier salted. They had a deeper flavor. Larger cut with a little skin still on them. - 9” Two Topping Pizza - 8: Great! Munchy Menu item (everyday 3-6pm & 9pm to close). It was a higher quality pizza, medium crispy crust that was still plenty soft and full bodied. We ordered sausage and banana peppers. - Tue - Tito’s Mule - 6.50: Served in a Ketel One Vodka mug, but made with Tito’s Vodka which is a little odd. Really cool mug, though. My friend ordered it and I did not have any. The drinks generally often had a wedge of lemon. Some people love that, but some are very conscientious of that. Whichever side you are on, know that because it is not really specified and comes by default that way. I typically don’t like the lemon wedge and took mine off my water. - Service: Started off matter-of-fact, but as the waitress warmed up, she was amazing and fun. She was super helpful and if she didn’t know the answers, she found out for us. Everything was right and as ordered (all of the mistakes were mine). - Atmosphere: Mainly tables and chairs. There are a few booths, but not many. They do have a bar. It is a darker atmosphere and not a ton of light. Louder, upbeat, and positive music. Some are older, but well mixed. They do have a take out area. - Conclusion: I’d definitely go back for the food, but the music limits what conditions I’d come back for. Visited on a Tuesday at 5pm. ”
“ Great food. Calzone is my favorite. Service is very nice and helpful. Great place. ”
“ A friend suggested this place. We love it. We've entertained there, had meals there, which by the way the food is fantastic, and have watched plenty of sports there. Haven't found a bad seat yet. Highly recommend... ”
“ They take reservations for a big crowd and I like that some restaurants don’t do that anymore, but they still do. Food is great. My friends like it. ”
“ We had an awesome time watching football and eating great food at Florentines. You have a good view no matter where you sit. Our waitress, Ashanti, really knew the menu well and made specific recommendations for us. We will be back! ”
