Restaurants in Bradenton Beach

“Had a great experience at SALT, the food, the service, and the atmosphere were phenomenal! We ordered the king crab, truffle fries, gnocchi + steak medallions, ribeye, kids linguine, and the pina colada cheesecake- everything was so, so good!!!! We basically ordered everything our waitress recommended to us, and there was zero disappointment! Also- whoever makes the espresso martinis (I love you) amazing! 10/10”

“We did this yesterday with Philip and Trevor and had an amazing time. We are booking again for our trip in May.”

“Pane e Amore was by far the BEST Italian my husband and I have eaten! Portions are perfect, food was thoughtfully made to perfection! I could taste all the individual flavors in the rigatoni alla vodka! The owner/ chef exceeded our expectations and made us feel like family. This will be a forever place for us! Go in, request a table, and soak up the experience! Buon Appetito 🇮🇹🍝”

“Went twice last week while on vacation. Our first order was awesome, generous portions and food was excellent. Our second time ordering, we went to pick-up and waited while other people received their orders who came in after us. After seeing this, we asked again about our order and it was left sitting in the back for about 15 min. Gave it to us, with no other exchange. Buns were soggy and chips a bit over-done, which was a bit of a bummer.”

“An amazing experience and the food is always delicious!! We went 2 days in a row. The staff is so friendly and we loved talking with Brian the waiter!! Beautiful ambiance ❤️. Our next visit to Anna Maria Island we will definitely be visiting Bamboo Island Bar!!”

“What a great place. My wife and I were visiting from the UK and found this gem of a restaurant. Ate there a few times. The food is outstanding; fish is really fresh and cooked to perfection. Saw someone having a steak?? Why have beef in a seafood restaurant ? Favourite restaurant of our trip.”

“We come to Florida every year and this is our first stop. Love this bar. Great people and awesome bartenders 🩵”

“Food was amazing and the service was top notch. Highly recommend if you visit the island”

“Best burgers in the world. Indisputable truth.”

“love the bartenders. great people”

“Excellent beach vibe with a tremendous selection of food. The duck is my favorite”

“Great service from Holly last night! We were recommended to come into Sharky’s and we were very very satisfied. The prime rib was amazing and I loved their creamy seafood soup. Holly was so attentive, refreshing, and funny. We are definitely coming back! 5 Stars ⭐️ check it out folks.”

“Wicked Cantina on Anna Maria Island is exactly the kind of place that keeps me coming back to this area. This is what I like,a spot that’s run by locals, not some big chain, where you actually feel welcomed when you walk in.

The food is good, fresh, and consistent. But what really makes it stand out is the people. You can tell they genuinely want to make sure you’re well received and that you enjoy yourself. That kind of service makes a difference.”

“We had a great experience at the beach house. We come every year while vacationing. My 8 year old uses a wheelchair so exploring the beach she got sand all over her chair. Michelle saw us trying to clean it off and came over to help. She brought a wet rag and started wiping off my daughter’s chair. She was so kind and helpful. Truly went above and beyond. She also let us know their sister property- the sandbar now has a ramp to the beach so we will be sure to check that out next time. Our waitress Bobbi was also great! The food, atmosphere and service were all 5 stars. Thank you again Christine, you are a gem”

“Great place for drinks, come by boat all the time.”

“Back Alley is my favorite shop at my favorite beach. Its usually an every day stop while we're staying on the island. The coffee is always fantastic and I find the best souvenirs there. I especially love drinking coffee from my Back Alley Insulated cup at home because it reminds me of my happy place when I cant be there. Today was a fantastic day because I got to visit Back Alley! It was our first time in since all the storm damage and the place looks even more beautiful than it did before!”

“Gelato-go on Anna Maria Island is a sweet little slice of Italy right in paradise. Nestled conveniently on Bridge Street, this charming gelateria offers a refreshing escape from the Florida heat with authentic, handcrafted gelato.”

“Stopped in here after buying gelato next door and wish we had just come here. Customer service was great, thank you Jonathan. So many treats to choose from. A great selection of old fashioned candies, craft sodas, fudge, chocolates and more. We are locals but we were happy to play tourist and find this place. We will be back.”

“Cal is awesome!! Love her ❤️ Will you ever have ahi tuna on the menu again?”

“The food was delicious with very generous portions. The daiquiri’s were so good! The service was great and the prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend this place!”
