Why) I often prepare a Buckys restaurant guide when I am going to be in one city for a week. In most cases, I don't end up putting any of the restaurants onto this website.  These two are an exception because we ate there and I like the logos that I found on the internet.

    What) Jamrocks Jamaican Grill - 4/228 - Ratings 16 - Price for an entree: $10-15
            Cuisines: Jamaican - 5917 Manatee Avenue West   1-866-575-7184
            Hours: Tue - Sun, 11:30 am - 10:30 pm
            Quotes: "This is a beautiful place with wonderful music and food."
                           "Traditional Jamaican food made the way my family makes it. Rice and peas, fried plantains etc.
                             I had fresh red snapper escoveche style with julienned veggies. It was DELICIOUS!!" (1)

    What) Thai Wasabi - 3/228 - Ratings 13 - Price for an entree: $12

            Hours: Mon-Sat 11am - 2:30pm, 5pm - 9:30pm
            Quote: "I have been to Thai Wasabi several times and it is consistently good ... some of the best sushi I've ever had.
                          My boyfriend is not an adventurous eater and is very picky about food prices but, when I finally convinced him to go,
                          even he enjoyed the food and thought it was reasonably priced." (2)

    Why) Of course, the real reason why restaurants tend not to make it onto the internet is that I don't have a camera with me when we go out to eat so there is not much to show you.




















The food was good too. (3) and (4)
