“Great spot in downtown Gulfport. This entire area gives me a bit of a Key West vibe. We sat outside and watch the good people of Gulfport walk their dogs. Full menu all day. Most of us had breakfast and all of us were happy with our choices.“
“This is a happening place. Always full of characters. Food is delicious, service is slow. atmosphere is fun. typically there is a bamd playing....this is a loud environment but fun.Parking: parking is first come. there is a side parking lot adjacent to the location.Wheelchair accessibility: wheelchairs will have to be at street level.“
“Located right on Gulfport Beach, you can sit inside and outside. The food (Gyros Plate & Greek Salad) were okay, but both had little in common with the Greek original. So if you know gyros from Greece or at least Europe, you won't be happy here.Kid-friendliness: There are crayons, something to paint with and even a children's cup.“
“GREAT FOOD GREAT SERVICE!!We came here for a late breakfast; the Pancakes were super fluffy, and flavored nicely with vanilla. I also ordered “Poseidon’s Omelette” which was amazing as well.Our server, Dana- has some of the best customer service skills I have experienced in any hospitality/restaurant establishment. She checked in with our table numerous times, refilled our drinks and checked in ensuring that our experience was the best it could possibly be.11/10 recommend— all visitors to the area must stop here (AND ASK FOR DANA!!)Vegetarian options: Most food has no meat, easy to remove and make all menu items vegetarian.“
“What a fun place !! Right on the waterGreat Food And KAYTLIN was fantastic !! Ask the sweet hostess Sibella ? for KAYTLIN !!She was FUN and knowledgeable regarding what drinks to try . She totally made our day!! We will definitely be back !!“
“A must-dine when in St Pete! Superb, thoughtfully-created dishes that will delight the most discerning foodies. Great cocktails (try the Goddess if you’re looking for something refreshing, and they have the BEST espresso martini). Favs include the mussels with the grilled bread for dipping, the truly unique Mac & Cheese, and any of the salads. Honestly everything is great.“
“I just wanted a simple soup and baked potato dinner. This was my first time here at the referral of a coworker. To go service was fabulous. Staff was extremely kind and fast. My food was definitely prepared fresh as I waited about 20 mins for 2 side items . The French onion soup was perfectly placed in the to go container where the cheese topping held together on top. Rarely I see that happen when ordering to go French onion soup. The soup was a little too salty for my taste more than usual for this type of soup. But it was good! The baked potato perfectly cooked with cheese melted inside but sour cream and butter in side containers. I spent $13 something for these side items. I think that's reasonable for restaurant food. Will return for a regular meal. This place was busy for a weekday night. Can't imagine the weekends here!Parking: Though a lot of parking this place is busy! So spots fill up fast“
“It was a pleasant experience.The server was attentive and nice.The food was good and came with proper timing.Overall, I would definitely be back!Parking: It was located about a block away in a vacant lot reserved for the restaurant customers only.“
“we had half their menu! And nothing was less than spectacular! our server was so outstanding! I would drive the two hrs from Winter Garden just for the scallops! Definitely recommend this place to everyone! Fair warning the salad is HUGE!“
“The zingers were amazing! We had the prickly pear margarita which was great and our server Eric was super cool. He was attentive but not annoying or pushy. The dessert we got wasn’t that great but everything else about the experience made up for it.“
“Wow. Fords Garage of St. Pete’s is truly on another level! The hospitality, service, atmosphere, and food were all top notch! Tracey, the manager was just the nicest soul!! She made us feel like family!! Truly amazing!! Would highly recommend visiting!!“
“All I can say is wow!Great atmosphere, our server was friendly and attentive, and the FOOD was probably the best I’ve had in St. Pete and Ive lived here 31 years... I got the Ribeye with goat cheese on top and the jumbo shrimp on the side. Steak was cooked perfectly(in butter not seed oils), presentation was beautiful, and the shrimp were delicious!I have been meaning to check this place out since they opened due to the grass fed steaks and I am kicking myself for not going sooner!Possibly the best restaurant in St. Pete or the Tampa Bay Area for carnivores and vegans alike.Incredible!!“
“I had the stromboli as recomended to me from friends. Takes about 20 minutes. It is excellent-the bread is fresh, and the fillings are very good. I sometimes worry about the sausage being to chunky, but it is the perfect size and flavor. I ordered the larger portion, and my wife and I finished the whole thing with a little help from a friend.The owners are Ohio State fans, as demonstrated by the wall hangings, however the owners are friendly, and Michigan fans are welcome. Go Blue.“
“The food is amazing! All the reviews were spot on. The service was fast and so hospitable. Joe the owner spent time out of his day to chat with us too. Will definitely be coming back!Kid-friendliness: They had an outdoor area with kid stuff to play with“
“We’re new to this area of town and we were doubtful that we’d ever find an old school breakfast diner like the one we frequented in our old neighborhood. We googled ‘breakfast diners in Seminole’ and were intrigued by the awesome reviews here… me more so by the comments on their old fashioned grits! This hole-in-the-wall diner is located in a strip mall and is very easy to overlook, if not for the completely full parking lot - a very good sign! We followed the crowd inside and have been going for breakfast ever since! They also serve lunch for people who aren’t looking for breakfast food.True to the reviews, their grits are unlike ANYTHING this Southerner has ever had! Less gritty than traditional grits, but whipped in texture and consistency, they are the best grits I’ve ever had! Melt in some butter and sprinkle with salt and you’ll be in grit heaven! There’s honey, sugar and syrup available for those who prefer their grits sweet.Our order: We always get the 2 Egg breakfast - with two eggs cooked any way, with your choice of breakfast meat and one of the following three options: grits, toast or hash browns. The hash browns are old school shredded and griddled in a heaping pile, so don’t miss those, either! We always order a side of hash browns to split. Sometimes, my husband orders the pancakes - the size of basically hubcaps lol. The coffee is hot, the service is awesome and we really love sitting in Bonnie’s section. Go for the grits and fall in love with everything else like we did! The little guy who clears the tables is a sweetheart and we look forward to seeing his big smile every time we go!*Thank you also for serving and recognizing our veterans! As a wife to a veteran, you’ve got fans for life with my family! Don’t forget to check out the breakfast specials located on the napkin dispensers on each table! Bring cash to avoid the new 3% surcharge they tack in to credit card payments. They offer catering as well!Vegetarian options: By omitting meat from salads and breakfast plates, you can easily eat a vegetarian meal here.Dietary restrictions: They offer multiple items like salads, vegetables and fresh fruits for vegetarians and vegans.Parking: Many of the surrounding businesses have designated parking spot signs, but the traffic in and out means that you won’t wait too longKid-friendliness: Lots of kids here! The restaurant is small and tends to be on the louder side, so kids would barely be noticed.Wheelchair accessibility: Located on the ground level, this establishment has wheelchair accessible parking and easy access inside.“
“My morning at Paradise Grille in Pass-a-Grille Beach was absolute bliss! Sipping drinks by the ocean, surrounded by great company and a fantastic vibe, made for an unforgettable experience. The drinks were top-notch, the view was breathtaking, and to top it off, there was a delightful vendor market adding to the lively atmosphere. Paradise Grille is a must-visit spot for anyone looking to soak up the sun and enjoy the best of beachside living.Marisa Balletti-Lavoie“
“For a waterside restaurant, this place is better than most. The hogfish was excellent! A little disappointed with the fish and chips only because I prefer a beer batter rather than panko breading. The fries were awesome. Good service! We'd definitely bring our out of town guests here.Kid-friendliness: There were a lot of families the night we went. Looks very family friendly.“
“Food was great. I have to try the beer still..(was picking up lunch for the crew @ Duncan McClellan Gallery)But Amelia's service definitely stole the show. I went here specifically for the vegan gluten free option for a co-worker...& when her order machine said it was not in stock she went to the back any figured it out for me. (The item was just showing 86'd although a new order had come in)She's a Rockstar! Give her a raise!“
“I happened to be in the Saint Pete area and friends took me to VIP For lunch. The food was great and the margaritas were amazing! I can’t wait to go back there next time I’m in the area!Parking: There’s a few free parking spots, but most of them you have to pay for whether it’s in the lot or on the street.“
“Had a family dinner here on Monday and it was incredible!! It is a smaller place so there was a bit of a wait but it went by quick and was well worth it. Because it’s smaller there’s no sacrifice on quality of food or the service itself. We all got the filet mignon with Gorgonzola cream and it was amazing. Max was great!“
“Awesome place to stop for a bite to eat after a day at Fort Desoto! Burgers are fantastic-- try the Blue Beard and ask for some Swiss and blue cheese dressing for it it's delicious !Service was great, Stephanie was awesome and the food came out fast as well.Spacious and spotless bathroom tooWheelchair accessibility: A lil snug for wheelchairs to get around but was definitely do-ableRestroom was easy to get in and out of, though, and it was super clean ?“
“Great for Date night. It's Right on downtown strip with plenty of outdoor seating. Tiki Masala was great $18 naan bread was fresh and warm, but small portion of chicken, but it was perfect for me - just giving a heads up for others. Husband got the Hot Nashville chicken sandwich $ 15 and said it was great. Server disappeared for a bit- but overall, it was good ?“
“What I can say about $5.50 beers and $6 loaded tots on Wednesday. And they have trivia night. This place is amazing and the servicers were knowable and attentive. Definitely going to here a lot and try a burger. Cool mix of people in a mind blowing setting with the cleanest beer lines in the Burg. They had my fav New Hampshire IPA on tap. Score.Parking: Spots were all taken before 5 but there was plenty of spots around the lake.“
“Great food, great service. But the whole vibe comes off as a diner. Bear tables scattered around and uninspired room. However on a quiet traffic day sitting outside is a good option. I had the spicy Mexican chicken sandwich with fries. My friend had the French toast fingers with fruit. Both dishes were excellent! This service was spot on. This only loses a star because of the sterile atmosphere.“
“Our server Leti was amazing... very knowledgeable... your berry crepes were the best... she sold them as we asked how they were... oh and your SigHotSauce is kicking.... when we travel we only do MOM&POP .... EggHaven is on top of our list ?“
“Friendly, delicious and reasonably priced little diner that my son and I made an unexpected stop for breakfast and we will definitely go back. The food came out fast, hot and fresh in good sized portions and our server was very nice and accommodated my son with his random requests!Kid-friendliness: The staff was very friendly and patient with my son“
“Been here several times, and the service and food is always amazing. Birch and Vine lost my Christmas Eve reservation that I made six weeks in advance and even showed them confirmation on my phone. They didn’t even apologize or try to accommodate us. The manager Parkshore Grill was so nice and understanding she made a table for my family of eight and saved our Christmas Eve.“
“We like to sit at the bar, so I can't speak for the whole restaurant experience, but at the bar you have your own bar tender, the drinks are creative and unlike anything you get anywhere else. The food comes out quickly, is picture perfect and delicious. The bar stools are extremely comfortable. Definitely fun to try the flight! Ambiance is great, very popular, make a reservation in advance!Kid-friendliness: I didn't see any kids, leave them at home with a pizza“
“This is our second restaurant on Beach Dr NE, after Parkshore Grill.Definitely will return: it’s better than Parkshore Grill next door.We came here before the opera Turandot. It has a sizable outdoor section that looks out to Tampa Bay, with sofas and regular tables. The indoor decor is tasteful, dominates by a big mural, which was done by artist Annette Gloomis (?). High ceiling, with three exposed fat pipes. Fresh flowers on the tables, handbag hooks under the tables.Allelo is short for Allelomimetic -> allelomimetic behavior.Stems, tableware and utensils are all really good: especially they use smaller spoons for desserts – thank you!We’ve 4 glasses 2021 red from three countries:Portuguese Touriga Nacional Herdade do Rocim: smooth, the best of the threeFrench Syrah Domaine Faillenc St Marie Corbières: okSpanish Garnacha Camino de Navaherrero Bernabeleva: too dryThe asparagus (sunflower, aleppo, pecorino butter) is yummy. The sauce is light and lively. Too bad we weren’t hungry after the big lunch at Terra Gaucha.We’re able, however, to squeeze in a piece of tiramisu – it’s to die for, with prominent dark rum taste; and I love the coarse texture – I don’t like my food being massaged too much. The cake is made in the house.I like the wall paper in their bathroom too -:)“
“DELICIOUS and super filling. The Mac N Rib was filled with a ton of meat and Mac and cheese. The tater tots were alright (too strong on the truffle oil). Would go back to this place. $15 dollars per sandwich with one combo (tots and drink) for $41. Parking can be very limited.Parking: Very limited for space“
“We love this little place. It makes you feel like you're on vacation even if you're a local! Whenever family is in town visiting, they always want to go here because it's that nostalgic vacation vibe by the sea. Yummy breakfast, too!“
“Was very excited to have found this place. Great tasting, extremely fresh, good portion sizes, nice staff, good indoor or outdoor seating options.Would be a great place to come before having a night out at the bars if you don’t want to have a sit down dinner but want something hot and fresh, close to everything.“
“Had an absolutely amazing meal here tonight, perfect for a date night out. If you’re looking for a place that truly cherishes the culinary experience this is your spot! Every part of our meal perfectly complemented the next, our waiter was extremely personable & attentive, truly one of the best meals we’ve had in our area. Highly recommend. Thank you to everyone involved!“
“I’ve been seeing the gateway subs guys on instagram and realized the Pasadena location was on my way home yesterday. I ordered online. Their website allows you to order and customize your meal very well. It was easy to place and pay for the order online. I swung by on my way home and my order was done 10 min early. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. I’m so glad I saw them on IG because it’s in a strip mall and I might not have noticed it otherwise. It’s just on the east side of the Corey Ave bridge so it’s very convenient for people coming or going to the beach. Oh…and the sandwiches were GREAT!“
“Sat outside (it had been raining earlier so it was a bit quieter than normal). Our waitress was very atttentive and friendly. We had prawns in breadcrumbs, and grouper fish & chips. The grouper was very good, and the chips delicious. Everything is served on paper/plastic (nothing fancy here). I found out afterwards that I could've had grilled grouper, but it wasn't on the menu.“
“Breakfast was affordable and impeccable, very cozy and comfortable place to eat! A little bit of everything for everyone.Only complaint is I also tried the st. Patty's special for 19.99 and only got 3 thin slices of corned beef.... Half a cabbage, 3-4 red potatoes, and a handful of carrots. It was all cooked well and other than the corned beef- unseasoned. Was pretty disappointed!Will go back again for breakfast or lunch but won't be ordering any type of special meal for holidays.Kid-friendliness: Staff seemed helpful and patient for patrons with young kidsWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp cut in the sidewalk for accessibility, but the doors are push/pull so would need assistance getting into the building“
“Great food. Not a whole lot of room or parking for that matter. This was our first time here, and we heard plenty of good things about the food. They didn't disappoint. I will come back another time for sure.Parking: It's just not a whole lot of parking“
“A favorite local neighborhood spot to end the night after hanging in the St Pete area. Sports on the TVs, good music on the jukebox, and a fun laid back vibe. Decent bar food and friendly service. Always end up staying later than I planned. :)“
“Absolutely incredible dinner. The service was very welcoming and friendly. The chef was brilliant and talked us through all of the dishes, describing his intentions with the bold and complex flavors of them. This place has a truly unique intimate dining experience you won’t find anywhere else in St. Pete.“
“Beautiful location and outstanding service / communication. Clean, spacious rooms with everything we needed. Having beach chairs, beach towels, etc available meant less to pack and one more bonus. All made for a relaxing and very special week.“
“I personally wrote mgmt about how amazing Starlite was with and for us for our wedding day just this past Saturday! Initially guided by Teresa and Leslie who were spot on organized and made life easy for us, we were then handed over to Ted for coordinating and to be our personal assistant. Ted was phenomenal!!!!! He cared about every detail along with us. Ted made sure that he was not only in the initial planning stage but lived it with us! Being there on our wedding day, Ted made sure that everything we put down on our itinery was met 100%. Starlite gets 5 stars for providing great services and a great staff. Ted gets 5 starts for getting it done, hands on and again, leading the way all the way through till the end. Stephanie, the DJ, was so awesome!! Easy to work with and so pumped the crowd up. She wanted to make the party rock, which it did! Everyone who flew in from around the country for a weekend in St. Pete for the wedding, are saying it was the best wedding they went to because it was "an experience" on a yacht, tour, great service, great staff, great experience. Our social media clips etc have 1,000s of views because of the presentation and live action onboard. I highly recommend having you event here. We will definitely plan anniversaries etc using Starlite. And Ted, is our friend now! (When I can add video clips soon, I'll update this review with video clips) 5 stars“
“They have a sloppy joe it's made from scratch that is so delicious I can't even describe it along with their made from scratch soups you can pretty much point to anything on the menu and it's delicious and the prices are really low cuz they cater to the elderly like the sloppy joe with one side I always get the tater tots only$ 7.99“
“We eat here often as it has become one of our favorite restaurants! Last night was exceptional! We both ordered the filet which was melt in your mouth! My baked potato & hubby's sweet potato were Devine! Corn and house salad were also the best! Thanks for a delightful evening ?“
“Fun place with great live music. We had an issue with the front host being incredibly rude and wanting to split our party of 8 and said we could not split a bill if we sat all together. The GM resolved it quickly and kindly. Servers were friendly. We only had drinks here“
“We hired them for our Annual Party and they were awesome. Great communication, showed up early, and the food was terrific! I can't wait to go downtown on my own and try some of their other delicious food selections. We would definitely use them again. Thanks again for making our party great!“
“Today was my first visit to this restaurant and I could not have been more pleased! The food was amazing.....but the best part was Elijah! He is, without a doubt, the kindest person I have met in a very long time! If I'm in the area again I will absolutely eat here again!“
“One of those amazing "hole in the wall" places that surprises the hell out of you. Friends invited me to meet them here for $2 burgers. I wasn't expecting much for $2, a place that has $2 burgers on Tuesdays or a small bar in a small strip plaza. Don't judge a book... The burgers were fantastic. The sweet potato tots were freaking delicious. Service was great. Have gone back a few times already and it's been just as good. It was even good when they had just opened the doors & there wasn't a soul in there but the owner. Definitely worth checking out. Apparently they have different specials every day but I'm stuck on $2 burger Tuesdays.“
“Outdoor seating in open or under large tiki Pavillion along a waterway and marina. Servers are friendly and helpful. Mahi tacos are the best I have had outside the keys. Limited menu so everything is made wit care.Parking: Many people ride bikes or walk. Parking is limited but we have never had a problem. Worst case there is parking along the road outside the gate a short walk away.Kid-friendliness: Nice view of water and wild life. All the kids I have seen seem to enjoy the food and relaxed lunch time atmoshete.Wheelchair accessibility: At lunch would be the best time to scope out low table seating and get a feel for maneuvering. Small friendly and yummy spot.“
Wine Bar • $$
“Love the seating on the balcony especially for a group of friends. We had a wonderful time there, nice wines, food was surprisingly good, Cervice excellent. Our server Marietta was extremely nice, friendly and helpful with choosing the food and wine. Will be back for “
“The food was excellent. We got the shrimp tacos and buffalo chicken appetizer. Overall cool vibes with good tunes playing in the background. We sat outside and it was a lovely afternoon lunch. We also brought our small kids so it was nice to have a shady spot in their outdoor dining area to spread out a little so us mom's could enjoy a nice lunch and a beverage while the kiddies napped. Bookmarking this spot Visiting from @cattlemanscoffee in Michigan Update to this review: it was so good we had to come back the next day for lunch. Equally as enjoyable the second visit, too!“
