“Just went tonight and had an absolutely amazing time and food, sat on the water and was served by Amanda, She was super kind and friendly. The food was fantastic and couldn’t have asked for anything else. Priced fairly and service was quick! Are biggest regret is finding this place on our last night :(“
“Absolutely PHENOMENAL! This place is so versatile with so many options. I got the bridge street sandwich on the jalapeno pepperjack bagel, easily the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had! I also tried the fruity pebbles doughnut, and it was equally as delicious. The staff were so friendly and helpful with the questions we had. Adorable little shop on bridge street, and a must see when in AMI.“
“This place has one of the best atmospheres on the island. Very casual and laid back. Live music is always good. Whatever side of the street you’re on it’s just a good time to be here. Food is average and service at a table can be a bit slow because of how busy it gets. However the bartenders when you’re sitting at the open bar are quick to get you your drink. Highly recommend for a good time.“
“Dry Dock is consistently a great place to get a well-prepared lunch or dinner and the service is friendly without being intrusive. Being on the water (where we experienced a whole pod of dolphins swimming by our window seat) is just an extra inducement to visiting there.Parking: Limited and hard to get in and out of, if you go too far and haven't found a spot, you are forced to back yourself all the way out because there is no turnaround.“
“Our family stopped by while on Spring Break, and we enjoyed the experience. I ordered the grouper tacos, which were large and tasty. Kids generally enjoyed their food. The ambiance was pleasant and fun. The bathrooms were gross and should have included a complimentary tetanus shot.“
“This place is amazing, I love the coffee so much I been there two days in a row now. Since I'm not from here it was a nice change from the chain coffee shops. Oh and the falafel breakfast sandwich was amazing. I would recommend this to everyone. Also I love supporting small businesses.“
“We come in every year while visiting family in FL. We’ve always been happy however this year was exceptional! From all the food to our server Cecelia we could not have been more satisfied. Thank you for another enjoyable experience for our yearly visit!“
“We have eaten here every day on our vacation for breakfast. Everything is incredible here. The lavender matcha is the best I've ever had! And the coconut vanilla latte was very good as well and not too sweet! I loved the avocado chicken salad, breakfast sandwiches on bagels, BLTs, and my husband had the diplomat sandwich which was huge! He loved it! And the service is so friendly! Highly recommended coming here!“
“It was mostly a good experience, but for some reason, the person at the Tiki bar felt that he had to first inform us of all the rules and things we can't do. After we finally got seated at the main bar for dinner, we had a great time!“
“My family and I visited Bayshore Nutrition for the first time yesterday and were very pleased with the overall service and and experience as a whole. We were greeted upon walking in, she took our orders and made them, quite fast and accurately I might add, and then explained the benefits to each of our drinks, told us how many calories were in the smoothies, which I found really helpful as I am a person that tracks the calories I have each day so I really appreciated that. The smoothies were all REALLY GOOD, HEALTHY & BENEFICIAL. We agreed that we'd definitely be visiting again and soon!“
“The soft serve ice cream is thick, rich and creamy. The serving sizes are are generous and the prices are reasonable. When we want a cold confection it’s the only place we go. I highly recommend a visit to Jeremiah’s, you won’t be disappointed.Parking: Ample parking if you want to walk up and place an order or if you use the drive thru and want to sit in your vehicle and enjoy your treat.“
“Quick, incredibly fresh, dependable, and with a welcoming staff. It was my initial experience trying their pizza, and it impressed me greatly, especially considering I'm quite selective with pizza due to my experience working in a pizzeria. My expectations were high, and they certainly delivered.“
“Found through Google. It is everything I expected and more... The food (no condiments needed), the music and the vibe was amazing. My complements to the chef... Thank you for what you do... My Dad and I really enjoyed our lunch experience. Will definitely be back.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp straight to the front door.“
“The food is sooo fresh and delicious that it's worth the wait! Every time I go to Bradenton, I insist that I have to eat here. The clam strip are so tender and huge!! I always liked clam strips, but Starfish has spoiled me that I can't eat them anywhere else but here!!“
“My hubby and I stopped there on a whim while on our way home from shopping and I was having a craving for something cold and sweet. My husband got a Guava Snowball, which he liked and I had a Vanilla Soft Serve topped with Caramel drizzle and Oreo cookie crumbles. Yum!Stop by and check them out, they also have a little area to sit and enjoy your frozen treat and a couple of little things to keep the kiddos busy.“
“My family and I have done the 100 flavor challenge and every single time we’ve been the staff have been so friendly despite there being so many of us. We had so much fun these pasts few months going out together, and Pelican’s is such a great way to spend time together :)“
“Pricy for ice cream but that's normal for AMI. My favorite ice cream on the island! Especially the gelato mixes (mango or tangerine ice and ice cream swirl). But wait time is so long. Tip- order ice cream inside!! Line may be long but you will get it much quicker than outdoor.“
“Kava Social Club is a great place to hangout! Being open 24Hrs providing a safe space to all kinds of people! The owners are so kind and know how to treat there customers and everyone is treated like a friend. The drinks are amazing! The decor is amazing! The ambiance is so relaxed. The events they hold are so fun! They got an amazing place.“
“Stopped in for a quick snack and drink after a REALLY brisk stroll on the Riverwalk. So happy we did!! Great food, happy hour and sweet Sam did NOT disappoint!! Had I not needed to use the facilities (absolutely LOVED that the key was attached to the grandma stockpot SPOON ?), I would have NEVER known it was attached to a whole little mini mall with the cutest stores!! Oh my goodness... Who KNEW?! What's NOT to love?! What a treat--we will definitely come back ❤️!! Such a fun afternoon...“
“Absolutely delicious food! She assisted with an hors d'oeuvres party and everyone was raving about how good the food was. Melissa was extremely easy and flexible to work with and I would definitely use her again! Compliments to the chef!“
“I am Venezuelan and for the first time today I was here with my American husband who felt at home because of the excellent service and the authenticity of the homely food. My husband and I were so satisfied that it has now become our new favorite restaurant. There is no other restaurant like this in Sarasota. Not only is the food super delicious, they also serve large portions. Excellent price-quality ratio. And the staff made me feel like family because they are so friendly. I recommend you try this restaurant because it is really authentic food with a homemade flavor.“
“Small cozy restaurant, tucked away ( almost hidden) in the corner of Bradenton Commons strip plaza anchored with a Publix off Cortez.A chef couple owned and operated with super friendly service. Although the menu has a wide selection, I have repeatedly enjoyed all their versions of schnitzel.Great place to eat.“
“Really enjoyed our experience here. It was pretty when we went during spring break, but the lines moved pretty well and the staff were really friendly and attentive. Food was better than expected. Kids loved the all you can eat pancakes. Adults loved the yummy sandwiches.“
“We love this place!…the food and ambience are fantastic!, plus the service is first rate!…In fact we had the same server we had last May when we were here on vacation and she remembered us!, now that we will be living down here, definitely will be eating there a lot more!…If you want great home cooked food, with Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten Free options, this is the place to go!!!“
“Our group left the bar next door because they wouldn’t change a TV no one was watching to the game we wanted. Bad Roo!PaddyWagon’s not only gladly changed the TV but they also had free wings and pizza and salad for game day! Now that’s how you win customers and keep them happy.PaddyWagon’s has pool and darts and a patio and a great atmosphere with a large bar. A downtown favorite. Thank you!“
“Simply delicious. An island favorite owned and operated by an AMI born and raised local — if you haven’t been to gRub, it’s a must. gRub’s creative menu has something for everyone (the sides are amazing too) + quality ingredients, you can tell every dish is made with a lot of TLC. It’s definitely a place you will crave.“
“The bq was so good— brisket, quarter chicken, ribs, and pulled pork was all perfect! The sides that were available complemented the barbecue. Definitely someplace we will come back to. Service was very attentive and friendly:) thank you!!“
“This is THE SPOT. Wow! Their famous Chicken and biscuit was so delicious, juicy and flavorful. Home fries….yes! Kids had Mickey Mouse pancakes and yes, I snuck a few bites. Also one of the few places with a good coffee menu…thank goodness! Espresso Freddo (cold) hit the spot on a hot day. Service was 100%.“
“The is the best spot! I am reluctant to give it a super review because I don't want all the tourists to find it. But Deb and the staff are amazing, so I have to say...5 Stars!! Best Burger in town! Sorry Patrick!Parking: Don't be afraid to park away and walk a little. Park down by Mote & Save Our Seabirds. Then walk the short distance up to the Bait Shop. You'll work up an appetite and avoid getting tied up with people who don't know how to park if there aren't lines on asphalt“
“Me and my daughter tried this place for the first time today and it was awesome. The food the truck was clean and the staff was friendly. The pork sandwich was fantastic and fresh. We will definitely be coming back to eat here again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“This place claims to be the best burger place on the island. Although I beg to differ what they do have is an awesome atmosphere, great and personable staff, and overall good dive food. It has all the beach feel, it's out in the open and a nice place to chill without spending a fortune. Perfect place for leaving your swimsuit on and grabbing a bite. Wash it all down with a bottle of Not Your Fathers Root Beer and you won't be disappointed!“
“12 of us came in at the very end of the night. The crew working had a long day but still managed to provide a truly outstanding experience for us. The ice cream was absolutely exceptional, and the service was perfect. If you are looking for great ice cream, look no further - this is your place.“
“We love this place!…the food and ambience are fantastic!, plus the service is first rate!…In fact we had the same server we had last May when we were here on vacation and she remembered us!, now that we will be living down here, definitely will be eating there a lot more!…If you want great home cooked food, with Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten Free options, this is the place to go!!!“
“Awesome fresh food options, welcoming, friendly staff who treats you like family. Everything comes quickly and it's a great place for a quick bite or to chill out and lounge. They even have a coffee bar and Wi-Fi. Very kid friendly too.“
“AMI might be the best kept secret in all of FL. Having spent 11 days there over Xmas/NY, we were so happy with every aspect of this little gem. Although it would be difficult to rank our favorites when it comes down to restaurants, beaches, activities, etc., hands down the Anchor Inn was the highlight of our trip. I could rave to you about the ice cold drinks, festive music, pinball and pool tables... But none of those elements even remotely compared to the awesome locals and fabulous bartenders that we quickly became friends with. But this post is regarding the Anchor Inn, so praising the bartenders is my top priority. Brad, single-handedly the most insightful and thought-provoking bartender that I've ever met. And his hair is great, too. The Brothers, both equally charming and pleasant to be around. And last, but not least and never to be forgotten, the tough as nails/sweet like honey Kirsten. You are a true Diamond, little sister. The four of you will be the top reasons that we will definitely be back to AMI in the not so distant future.“
“Coolest place to dock your boat. One stop set up. Baitstore eating and docking. Harvey is a cool dude. Stop in and ask for him. Super nice and helpful. We tore the trout up. Best fishing weekend. Made it easy with being able to use a private boat ramp and park your trailer and truck at the marina.“
“Drunken noodle? Crispy duck? Tom yum soup? They have it all and then some. I love Chang Kao Thai. The food is always made to order and fresh. What it Thai spicy? They'll make it. The fresh spring rolls from here are probably my favorite. Nice selection of imported beers as well. Dine in or carry out. Check them out!!“
“Riviera Dunes Dockside is a great place for delicious food and excellent service from Gee-Gee. We've sat outside for brunch and lunch with family/friends to experience the warm Florida weather and beautiful marina view. We can't wait to go back.“
“As a Philadelphia raised guy, I am super happy with the quality of the food and theme of the restaurant. My Pizza Steak Sandwich was great and we enjoyed the appetizers (Pretzels and Pierogis). This is my favorite sit down spot to visit when I go down to visit my families house on the island. Imported Amoroso Rolls makes the experience enhanced.Parking: When parking is available, it’s convenient. But when it is during busy hours it may become scarce.“
“Let me preface this by saying the typical, “I’m from NJ and my pizza standards are very high”. Maybe cliche but true… I grew up with fantastic pizza and have been frantically searching for something that comes close since moving to FL in 2014.This pizza doesn’t just come close to what I grew up with, this is EXACTLY what I grew up with.We ordered a half cheese & a half margarita, and asked for it well done. The pizza came out perfect. The cheese side was beautifully bubbly and not greasy in the slightest. The margarita side had some perfectly melted moz with large slices of tomato and plenty of basil.The crust was golden underneath and crispy with a wonderfully bubbly edge. The sauce was flavorful- both sweet and acidic. It was exactly what you want out of a good sauce.We also ordered a penne a la vodka and it also exceeded expectations. The vodka sauce was well balanced and the pasta perfectly al dente. The chicken cutlet was breaded evenly and fried to the perfect golden brown.I failed to take pictures, but will certainly be returning. Thank you to our wonderful server who knew the food offerings inside and out. And finally, of course, thank you Danny for bringing a slice of home to the sunshine state.“
“With a party of 22 people, Brianna did an amazing job keeping everyone’s drinks full and getting all of our orders correct. Kelly the manager did a great job helping out and keeping the kitchen open late for us. Ashley, the bartender got all of our drinks out quickly, and Alvin kept our tables clean when dishes were empty. The food was great.“
“Beautiful waterfront view. I dropped one star because we actually went the day before and there was some sort of building issue but we never got a notice that they were closing so we just had to leave when we got there. I went for the grouper sandwich which was perfectly fried. But it was a bit too much bread for the thickness of the grouper. Also, the grouper itself wasn't seasoned enough nor was the coleslaw. But my husband got the fries and they were delightful.Parking: You can park along the sides or on the grass in the center. But you can also park right outside the lot for free on the street.“
“A great place to go and watch a marina under tiki bar roof. For a dockside bar a great deal more seating than normal, And for waterfront of a reasonable price.And because it wasn't on there the best onion rings I've ever had that my own mother didn't make.Vegetarian options: It is a fish house on the water, these were not meant for vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: I would not assume there are any specific dietary restrictions that are going to be accommodated.Parking: There is a limited Marina parking lot right behind the restaurant other than that you have to seek a parking space at the hotel in any number of various locations if you go around to the front of the hotel on the south side of the lot you can normally park a boat trailer with a truck without too much trouble or being in anyone's way, or at least an hour or two.Wheelchair accessibility: Low ramps going everywhere, on the west side of the restaurant is a gravel lot, it will be much easier access coming in from the southeast side I'm going down the hallway.“
“My favorite coffee shop on the island I started my mornings with a short beach walk to the coffee shop, and the service was fast and the coffee was tasty. My favorite part are their straws - pieces of pasta noodles! A sustainable touch that is much appreciated when you're that close to the water.“
