Shula's 347 Grill - Tallahassee

The bartenders were sweet and knowledgeable about the menu. You keep the lights dim and there are you really that fine food vibe. I would say the amount it attracts is somewhat older, so it is not as funny as the rooftop bar in the hotel. I ordered the fried Calamari and it was pretty good. The prices are a bit high, but it is what you would expect from a hotel restaurant.

I would have given 4 stars if only the food rated, but the service was exceptional (thanks to angels). Drinks were good, but just good. If you order the shrimp appetizer, go ahead and order bread or extra crostini. You're welcome. Ribeye Fan? Save space for dessert if you like bread pudding, just wow.

I don’t write reviews often, but this specific Shula location deserves recognition. I travel quite a bit and I do my best to avoid both hotel restaurants and chains. Shula fell into both categories so my expectations weren’t high. However first and foremost was the service. Angel has been working as a bartender here for more than half a decade and anyone can tell he truly enjoys what he does. If you’re paying upwards of $15 for wine or a cocktail you want it to be great. Angel described everything perfectly from the most popular drinks to the most unique. He truly wants you to be happy with your cocktail or if you are choosing a wine from their large selection he was very helpful with suggesting food pairings. I ended up having a dirty martini because Angel said it was one of his favorites and the woman next to me at the bar was thoroughly enjoying hers. A dirty martini and blue cheese stuffed olives is usually a great start to a dinner and this was no exception. After deliberating about the menu for quite a while I had narrowed down some questions. I am on a budget and a premiere steakhouse was not where I intended to end up but options at 9pm on a Sunday were slim so I opted for one of the less expensive options; grilled fish sandwich and a side (I had a loaded baked potato). The fish was a grilled or blackened snapper that they offered to prepare skin off for me since I was nervous about having to take it off myself. The portion of fish was very large, meaty, and the remoulade sauce was perfect. The loaded baked potato was a meal in itself and I didn’t intend to finish either but it was too good to take home I’m a takeout box. Back to the service; because I truly believe this is why you should visit. I sat at the bar myself; my norm; but I never felt like I was alone. Angel ran a clean, efficient, comfortable bar while also attending to tables and preparing drinks. The Assistant Manager, Nate, checked on everyone’s drinks and meals and truly wanted to make their experience great. Please remember I sat down on a Sunday at 9pm and as I was finishing food just after 10pm they were happy to accommodate me to stay as they were clearing up. Even if you are someone who avoids chains, you should make Shula at Hotel Marriott: Automatic Collection in Tallahassee part of your plans. Everyone is struggling during this time, but it was so clear that quality and work ethic have not dwindled here. Trust me that even with the price tag (and as someone who doesn’t eat any red meat) this is a place you will want to visit and enjoy. Major kudos to this Shula location for making my Sunday night superb!

I spent my birthday night here. The ambience was very welcoming and charming. I enjoyed every bite of the meal here. From starter to dessert, the quality and taste of everything was excellent. The cheesecake was number one! Service was charming and very professional. It was expensive, but it's worth a try.

Fine food in the heart of downtown Tallahassee, Florida. Once you go in you will realize that you are for a great meal and experience. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and welcoming. The Entrées were all cooked for perfection. Every meal came out like every one of us ordered. If you are visiting or going through Tallahassee, you should add 347 Grille to your agenda.
