T42 - Estero

I've been to T42 several times previously and enjoyed it. It had a good atmosphere, live music or a DJ and enough people to give the place atmosphere and a fun spirit. We've even danced there after dinner! When I made the reservation for 7 people this evening I made a note that this was a birthday celebration. It was so disappointing! There was no live music or DJ, very few people in the place and yet the service was extremely slow and pretty poor. Several times I and one of my guests had to go looking for the servers. We had to ask for lights to be turned on we were not served our meals at the same time. Several dishes on the menu were not available, ditto several wines. Just an extremely disappointing experience for a birthday celebration. I and my friends won't be returning any time soon. Someone has dropped the ball here.

Mother's Day Went for a nice brunch at T42. Have never been before so was not aware of what to expect. It was explained that they serve small portions meant to be shared... ? . How does one share a small portion? I ordered French toast with peaches. Husband ordered lemon blueberry pancakes. 1 side of crispy potatoes and 1 side of sausage crumbles. What arrived: 1 thin slice of French toast with peaches and cream. Just 1 slice.... Delicious, but kinda wish I didn't share with hubby.... Husband's 2 pancakes were over cooked to nearly burned and dry. Had this not been the case, the flavor would have been very tasty. We didn't complain. Waitress stopped by to ask how the brunch was.... Never received the sides. The ordered went to a different table. She was very apologetic. At this point we should have just paid the bill and left. But, she promised 3 minutes. Potatoes came out not at all crispy and way undercooked. The sausage crumbles were hard marbles. Yup.... Should have just forgone the sides. We were comped the potatoes and 10% of the meal. Would we return? Meh....

The ambience in the restaurant was strange, there's live music that just stopped at 9 PM with no music on the menu is very strange and the food was bland and definitely not worth the price. It was like eating worse than diner food at a nice restaurant. The service though was very good. I would not return to this restaurant.

We always enjoy this restaurant. The selection and quality of the food is excellent. We have never had bad service and didn't on our last visit, but we did have some service issues that I hope are corrected. We ordered drinks and shortly after ordered our first course. The first course came before the drinks and my friends selection arrived much later than mine. The same thing happened with our entrees. Mine took longer to come out, and had to insist that he ate so it wouldn't get cold. All in all, it was still a wonderful experience and I highly recommend.

Excellent service food. From the avocado fries as an appetizer, to the Mediterranean Grouper we had for dinner, followed up by the pear/Brie flatbread for dessert, everything was fabulous. T42 is a hidden gem in Coconut Point that you need to try! It was moderately priced, had great service, live entertainment. We will definitely return soon!
