I would like to share this for every American out there . Four of us went there today for dinner and the waitress(JoJo) and a single patron started talking politics very anti ice anti TRUMP . Totally ruined our meals. But we did comment back we are done being silent . Support Americans that believe in America,God and Family not this place
Did someone say, “Prime Rib?” We’re blessed to live only about 10 minutes from the Shamrock Café in Venice, FL. I think we’ve dined on their fare 4 times now. Most recently, a week ago. Saturday is Prime Rib day at the café, so we decided to have a go at it. Of course, the staff is always amazingly friendly and game to explain meals to you. Don’t let the moniker fool you: this is a French café—with subtle reminders. A short list of wines on the table placard are all French wines. I think the dishes have a French flair. Seems like a small thing, but I find the vegetables seem fresh always and prepared with care. Saturday, I had the beets and they were delicious. My wife thought the baby carrots were the best she ever tasted—that’s high compliment since she hates vegetable and is incredibly finicky. The baked potato was cooked in foil and creamy delicious. The guest of honor, prime rib (one medium, one medium rare) did not disappoint. Here I thought the meat flavor was the clearest indicator of a French touch. Succulent, done perfectly—just the right amount of marbling. Tried not to wolf it down—failed! The au jus has a distinctly different flavor which I couldn’t identify. I like my broth dip to have a bit beefier flavor, but it was OK. Only other thing: Thought the entrée could have been served a little warmer. Every time we’ve dined, the chef has come to the table to check on our satisfaction with the meal. Honestly, this neighborhood sweet spot tucked away in Venice is highly recommended by us!
Great small town cafe with a pleasant staff. The food was good and had decent portions at a good price. The biscuits and gravy had some of the softest biscuits I have had in a long time.
