My Aunt and I really enjoyed the Grillroom at The Ringling. Wonderful accommodating staff, rich menu with many tasty options, and our food and cocktails were so good (and we were surprised by just how good, this being a resto at a cultural site and all) we could not stop talking about it for the rest of the afternoon. Thank you Grillroom for making our visit to The Ringling such a fantastic experience!

Outstanding service by our server, Sam. We had crab legs, a seafood boil and cheesecake, and all were great! The kitchen even made me a separate batch of biscuits at Sam’s request because I couldn’t eat cheese! Great meal & overall experience!
