The Banana Factory - Manatee County

We went for karaoke on wensday night. 1st off thanks for even having karaoke!That being said, we got there a little late so the kitchen was closed. Thank God really, because we walked next door to the Oyster bar and had one of the best meals ever over there.Anyways we came backfor the karaoke. The sound was great, the crowd was great. The KJ was nice enough, but he dragged out the rotation by taking too many personal breaks.And the bartender literally took over 15 minutes to make my drink. Not because it was busy, because he kept stopping and talking to random people continually. He even had to come back and ask me what I ordered, and he is the one who suggested the drink. He did apologize for taking so long though.So the place was awesome, and the KJ and Bartender were both nice, but they both had no good focus on their customers at all.Would I recommend this place? Definitely! Just watch them, and keep them on their toes, or they will drag out their jobs to serve you.

Jezebel was playing there tonight I was there and they rocked the house and were absolutely amazing!!

Outstanding food at a very fair price and outstanding help!

I 'm very disappointed with Management and owner of the Banana Factory. They have poor management skills to take care of their paying patrons. They have an I don 't care attitude .

I give the banana factory 0 stars for failing to inform customers that blocking the access to marinas and other establishments endangers the life of others.
