Service and food were excellent Great selection for all Waitress was knowledgeable when selecting our wine. You can't beat the view Great happy hour from 12-4

The service provided by Chase and the young lady that brought our food to the table was outstanding. The setting was very quaint and intimate. The food was very good and reasonably priced.

Unfortunately the food was mediocre. Soup wasn't hot when it came out. Presentation was nice but food lacked flavor. Server was professional and attentive.

Finally a restaurant / bar with THC infused drinks and the service is friendly

Bridge Street Bistro is a fantastic spot. The steak was outstanding—perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and clearly high quality. Great atmosphere, attentive service, and a solid menu overall. Whether you’re local or just in the area, this place is well worth a visit. Highly recommend.

The food prices are not related to the quality; it's very expensive, and it was the worst risotto I've ever eaten in my life.

I got the New Year's Eve lobster stuffed crab tail with asparagus and fingerling potatoes....potatoes were cold, lobster very bland and old tasting, the crab mix was a mushy mess and I have no idea how asparagus gets messed up but it was mush as well. The server was amazing and peppy and very kind, the drinks were great! But everyone at our table had mediocre meals that did not impress for a beach side NYE open restaurant.

Good food and drinks. The staff was all very kind and helpful. The food was delicious, excellent quality and portions, very fresh and flavorful. Day views are stunning. Make a reservation fills up fast.

We were staying in Bradenton for the Christmas week, went to the beach Christmas morning, and noticed this restaurant was open when we left. We went home to clean up and decided to find dinner out, since we didn't have a Christmas meal plan. We were able to get in for open seating at the bar even though they were booked for dinner reservations. The Christmas Meal was delicious and well-portioned. The staff was very friendly and hardworking. The sunset was phenomenal this night. Thank you for a memorable Christmas dinner!
Burnt yet cold food. Terrible service. Used to be one of our favorite restaurants on the island. Very disappointed in what it has turned into. Won't be back.

We were looking forward to a Christmas dinner here after making reservations back in November. We knew with it being Christmas Day it would be busy, however this restaurant was stretched so thin and that affected food quality and service. We could tell our server was tired. Our reservation was at 6:30. We originally ordered a filet and New York strip. After placing our order at about 7:00, we found out 30 mutes later they were sold out of the New York strip, so we just ordered 2 filets served medium. Once our filets showed up- 1 was completely over cooked and burnt, the other was purple. Our server got both removed from our check, but that left us without any dinner after almost 2 hours.

I understand that they were busy as it was Christmas, however we arrived for our reservation at 6:30. We had a party of 4. We looked forward to ordering one of the 2 specials they advertised, prime rib and seared scallops as another entree. We were informed that they were out of Prime rib and scallops. Asked our waiter about the crab cake, he wouldn't recommend. My wife settled on the meatball appetizer, I had the salmon oscar, my sister ordered rosemary chicken. Meatballs came out cold, salmon was raw, supposed to be 1/2 chicken. Sent back meatballs to warm, salmon to be cooked more. Meatballs were not very flavorful, salmon came back out still half raw and chicken was only a quarter piece and dry. Waiter was okay and appalogetic. Were not charged for meatball and salmon. Never had a manager come by and check on things. Another table behind us got up and left since they only got a glass of water after 40 minutes. We will not be back.

We live in close by and have been wanting to try this place for 2 years. Finally made it there on Christmas Day and will never go back. The waitress was good (she is why they are getting 2 stars and not 0) however the meal and experience made us never want to return. One of our appetizers came out AFTER our main dishes came. The pork medallions were supposed to be cooked medium but were bone dry. The veggies on the plate were also wrong. One of the seafood dishes only came with a 1/2” piece of crab. The other seafood dish didn’t come with any scallops. One member of our group had on a sleeveless shirt and was told they could go out on the deck to take a picture of the sunset because of his shirt. We brought all this up to the waitress and she was very apologetic and offered to take the pork dish off. What made everything worse was we were told a manager was going to come over to talk to us and they NEVER showed after we waited for over 30 minutes. We had a baby and just wanted to leave at this point so we wanted to pay the bill and move on. The waitress told us we would get the pork meal taken off and 20% off the entire bill. When the floor manager brought over the bill, she adjusted it to only 10% off. We ended up paying $240 for a very disappointing experience and lack luster food. We have eaten at practically all the restaurants on the island and have never had such a poorly managed experience. The fact that the manager didn’t come to apologize to us just shows they don’t care about their customers. Don’t waste your money at this place!

Good food but took a long time to arrive. Me and my husband ordered fillets I got medium and my husband got medium and even though it had sticks saying how it was cooked and they were in the wrong steak. My daughter ordered a cheeseburger but got chicken tenders then like 10 minutes later she got her burger. It was busy when we got there and closing when we left. Oh! And me and my daughter went to the bathroom and the door got stuck and she couldn’t open it but I got it open thankfully. The food was good but the experience wasn’t great.
