“What a gem of a place! Delicious creative Sicilian menu, not your standard spaghetti-and-meatballs fare. We had a cheesy roasted onion, timbale, beef ribs, nice bottle of wine recommended by our server, and chocolate pate and semi-fredo cannoli. All fantastic! Chef has seen Big Night "thousands of times" and his use of ingredients and care mimics that chef. Lovely evening we will long remember! Grazie!“
“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.“
“I went to this restaurant with my sister and our friend. Let me tell you! The food was amazing, the service was really great, and the price was fantastic for thr amount of food we got. The food was so flavorful and just... mmm mmm mmmmm. We traveled into thr area for a concert and found them by accident. It's the luckiest accident ever. We will be coming back again.Parking: It's in a shopping plaza so parking was easy.“
“To start off, the hummus at Hummus Bay is nothing short of delicious . It is creamy and perfectly seasoned. Furthermore, the tender beef at Hummus Bay is absolutely amazing. The marinated beef is grilled to perfection, and served with some fragrant yellow rice; it’s just the perfect match. I just love eating here. Moreover, the customer service is great & the Spanish speaking young girl that takes my order was literally the nicest person, she is always very cheery & kind. Hummus Bay is definitely my favorite restaurant.“
“I would like to thank the entire staff at APOLLONIA. I dined outside this afternoon for lunch. I had a wonderful experience, great atmosphere, delicious food and wonderful service. I did however watch other customers treat the servers with disrespect and outlandish demands. Although customers where not kind the servers handled every single customer with grace, kindness, and respect. Also they provided outstanding customer service with a smile. I will be a lifetime customer and will continue to suggest APOLLONIA at Cooper creek to everyone I know. Thank you again to each of you.“
“From entering to exiting, the staff was very friendly. Well seasoned and flavorful Mediterranean and seafood dishes. Busch Gardens tries to hide this place with their half-mile wall, but we made the trek anyway! In a sea of burgers and nuggets at the theme park, we wanted something better and this place hit the spot. Happy campers!“
“We're from out of town and found out that there wasn't a large selection of Mediterranean restaurants near our area, but we found one with good reviews, so we decided to try it out.The gentleman behind the register that took our order was friendly and helpful.We ordered the beef and chicken shawarma plate with hummus and yellow rice. The meat beef and chicken both had good flavor, the rice was nicely cooked, and the hummus was tasty.The only dish we didn't enjoy was the beef kaftka dish we ordered. The meat was overcooked and quite dry. The flavor wasn't there either. I wish we would've just stuck with the shawarma plate and ordered a salad on the side.“
“This is one of our new favorite places on Anna Maria island. The inside is intimate and comfortable. The food is outstanding and the service excellence. Russ was our most recent server. He was attentive and helpful with any questions we had. We will be leaving this week (after a winter stay) back to Ohio. We have reservations to visit Isola Bella one last time this season. We look forward to returing next year.“
“We have eaten here 2 nights in a row because the food is amazing and the service is wonderful. We had fillet mignon, chicken Alfredo, rib eye, tomato soup, crab cakes and desserts and everything was delicious. Our server, Semi was great - very professional, courteous and assertive. We highly recommend this restaurant!“
“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.“
