“What a fun place to spend an hour or two. Great food (especially their guac), great drinks, and especially great service. Hats off to our favorite server Morgan. She is definitely "service with a smile".😊“

“The food & service were phenomenal. We had a party of 5, sat outside with an ocean view and we all had a fantastic dinner. I’d highly recommend to anymore. We had a variety of dishes and we were all thrilled with our food plus dessert!“

“Had a wonderful dining experience while celebrating mom's 65th birthday. The view was spectacular, the ambiance superb, and the food was amazing. The best part, though, was our server Predrag. His service was exceptional, and what you would expect at an establishment of this caliber. It was his recommendations and how he made us feel welcome, brought us some great laughs, and went above and beyond our expectations that made this a truly memorable dinner. We are locals to the area, not just visiting, and would 10 out of 10 recommend and return.“

“Delicious food. Fun and engaging bartenders. I got to DJ for a corporate after party here. Everyone i worked with at Jimmy's were true team players.“

“What a treat for our 9th first date anniversary! M39 did not disappoint. Awesome food, cool vibe and David's service is impeccable. Crusted oysters, Cuba pork are amazing! Paella...the best since Sevilla! Great wine and craft beer list. Coming back is a DEF!“

“Great place! J was awesome !“

“Hats off to the chef!! I just had the best cream of mushroom soup ever!! I know that sounds like a weird soup to rave over but it’s so damn good! Big chunks of mushroom and there was an amazing depth of flavor in the base. Short ribs was my entree… it was melt in your mouth goodness!! It had whipped potatoes and brussels for side. Everything went well together!! Would have dined in if we weren’t under the weather, so we could tell the chef dinner was great :)“

“Omg the best atmosphere and the burger was 10 out of 10 with outstanding service by miss Tony very sweet and helpful will come back many times. 5 stars !!!!“

“Great food, servers are top notch, prices are very reasonable. New specials every time we go in. Highly recommended and appreciated“

“ We had the best experience at Ocean Seven. Sam was our waiter and he could not have been more efficient, friendly and welcoming.  if you go, it's a must to eat outside. The view alone is spectacular. From the drinks to the food to the dessert everything was on point. Whenever we are in Clearwater, we will be going to this restaurant! Thanks for a wonderful experience!“

The service was equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and made our evening feel extra special. Dessert was the highlight, simply phenomenal. To top it all off, the sunset views at night were breathtaking. Highly recommend SeaGuini for a memorable dining experience!“

Hope everybody else can get this experience.“

Great live music. Steak, seafood, fresh veggies, enjoyed by all! David was kind and accomodating. . Rebecca was gracious throughout the meal. All we encountered were professional and genuine. Lovely way to spend an evening with friends and family. Thank you!!“

“I was here with a friend about a month ago and then again tonight with two of my friends and everything has been wonderful. Service food all top notch. if you try the French dip you will never try another French dip anywhere ever again. The filet with French onion pasta is just crazy good. if you are local and you have not eaten here you are missing out.“

“Sandwiches were so good! We had the hot chicken sandwich and the corned beef!! Definitely would go back !!“

“Always consistently good food and friendly staff. Whether you choose breakfast or lunch you won’t be disappointed. It is our go-to breakfast place! Our favorites are sausage gravy and biscuits, French toast and Victor’s pancakes have to be the best around.“

“The lamb bucatini was out of this world! And the brownie was soooo chocolate.“

“Best Alfredo we have ever had! Large portions and all delicious. Very friendly owner and staff.“

“My Memphis born husband stopped smoking pork and beef when we discovered Eli's. Whenever family visits, getting Eli's BBQ is a MUST. WE have enjoyed their pork, beef, beans,, coleslaw and sauce for many gatherings. Most recently we hosted a very large party. All the food was so good, people wanted to know where we got it! Ronni and the staff are good, caring people. The value ion the food, the service and the warmth of the owners and staff make it a "gotta come back again often" place. At this time there is road work being done in front, that makes it a bit difficult to get to, but it is worth the effort. It's right on the Dunedin Trail, so you can go by bike, or walk a bit further than you are used to on Douglas..“

“place is awesome. I come here three or four mornings per week.. The restaurant recently expanded within the same building with bar seating, big screen TV Highly recommend every day 7am-3 pm. great atmosphere.“

“great food great service.“

“Great experience at the Salt Cracker Fish Camp. Our server Paola Z was very attentive, and her warm, welcoming smile made dinner very enjoyable. Oh yeah and did I mention that the food was outstanding. Don't forget to finish with some homemade Key Lime pie!“

“Came to get some bbq and get the crazy kids out the house. Aaron was our server and was very patient and kind to our family. Kids even ate free on Saturdays which we didn’t even know. Will definitely return hopefully to Aaron’s section.“

“Two enthusiastic thumbs up for Pete's Diner! They very kindly arranged to deliver a turkey dinner today to my brother (who lives in Dunedin and is recovering at home after surgery). Well, they delivered a delicious meal at 2:30pm and it was truly a HOMEMADE dinner. It was EXCEPTIONAL! From the turkey, to the gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, corn, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie with whipped cream--it was a homemade feast. We are deeply grateful to Pete's Diner for the extraordinary Thanksgiving dinner they prepared, and delivered!!!!“

“Overall good! Fun place for game day, seem to be understaffed but doesn’t really bother me none when in a fun environment. Couple girls were super cool to keep getting our drinks. Overall good, but not sure how to take the to go wings I ordered…“

“Blind Shark was the closest bar to our Airbnb and did not disappoint. Coming from Wisconsin, we don't have local watering holes you can smoke inside, so that was a huge plus to us! Drink selection was perfect for our simple tastes, and the locals/bartenders were great. Food was amazing also!Their karaoke night, I made sure to sign up. In the process, I made a friend (who is a local) and got her to sing with me for her first time in years! My fiance and I became friends with her and her husband, spending time with them outside of the bar during our stay.The hospitality is bar-none (no pun intended) and I'd be ecstatic to go back in the future. Very comfy space.“

“Four of us ate here for the first time recently, and we were all very impressed with the quality of the food, cocktails, wine selection, and attentiveness by the wait staff. I've deducted 1 start because of the noise level. We had a hard time hearing our waiter and ourselves, and we all have perfect hearing. I hope they install some noise abatement panels or something in the future. Lovely place! Glad it's in the area. Cheers.“
