“We had the most delicious breakfast here several times over the last visits to Anna Maria Island! The ham/swiss omelette was the best I’ve ever had! Friendly staff and excellent food! Can’t wait to come back! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Had their hotdog today. Excellent! Wanted fries. They were excellent as well! Hot, crinkled, my favorite! Huge serving. Will definitely go back.”

“Best fish and chips outside of home, better than the ones we had in London and even Aussie. For all you kiwis on island - here’s where you can have a taste of home 🇳🇿”

“I have some food restrictions (dairy and gluten) and was so happy to see that Cheesecake Cutie had options for me! Their chicken salad is incredible on their gluten free bread, which is so soft and so good! They have vegan cheesecake, and it’s so yummy! Really good service and locally owned which we loved! Definitely a go-to spot for me when I’m on AMI!”

“We spent $34 on a small açaí bowl and vegan sandwich (make sure you specify that you want vegan mayo). It was good and my wife was happy that they were generous with the peanut butter on the açaí bowl.”

“My Hot Honey Salami salad was fantastic! Perfect balance of all ingredients.
The iced latte was also so, so good. The cold brew ice cubes keep it from becoming watered down. Bril!”

“Me and my husband have visited multiple sandwich/sub deli's in the area from Clearwater, St. Pete, Bradenton & Sarasota and Scott's deli is by far the best! We drive from Palmetto at least once a month for our fix. Our go to sandwiches are the Coquina and the HB Italian beef. Everything tastes fresh from the bread to the toppings and the different sauces/condiments are paired perfectly with each sandwich. Great fresh made lemonade and my favorite pasta salad.”

“Best burger in Anna Maria. Loved the atmosphere and the friendly staff. We felt so welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed the food with a cold beer!”

“Sam, was the best, best service on the Island. We had a great time at the Ugly Grouper and Sam was the best server ! I can’t recommend that his place enough. The food was amazing! Everyone enjoy!!!”

“Awesome local spot!! Navy bean soup was amazing!!!”

“Absolutely amazing food!!! The chef, the staff and the atmosphere is awesome!!! Best grouper sandwich on the island. Tell them I sent you. 😅👍🤣”

“Excellent food! Excellent service ! Recommend 100%”

“I ordered the grouper fish tacos, blackened, and they were absolutely amazing. All the flavors blended perfectly and I highly recommend them. Also, sub your fries for onion rings - they are huge and delicious! Bonus - the Basil Gimlet was refreshing, yet strong 🙂”

“My boyfriend and I went in for breakfast. Everything we had was delicious. I have to say, the belgium waffle with the fresh fruit was the best I've had. The french toast was so good too. Eggs were cooked perfectly. Definitely would recommend. We will be going back.”

“THIS PLACE IS A MUST TRY!!! My husband and I are visiting Anna Maria for the first time to celebrate our son’s first birthday. Because of his bedtime it’s challenging to go out to restaurants so this was the perfect option for us to still have a fun dinner experience at home (you pick up the seafood pot, and then steam it at home in just 40 minutes!) they give you everything you need we just popped it on the stove. We LOVE seafood and this tasted absolutely DELICIOUS!

Nick, the gentleman who works there was extremely helpful and made great recommendations! Jimmy's seasoning is the way to go! Can’t wait to go back!”

“Loved the coffee and breakfast sandwich! Kind employees and great atmosphere!!”

“I forgot to make it 5 star in my review! Love Holy Cow and Melinda!!!”

“Great staff & ice cream! My family and I go to Anna Maria for vacation and this is definitely a stop we make multiple times each trip! Thank you for a great time!”

“Our family ate here multiple times on vacation! Food is delicious and service is friendly, fast and efficient. We miss it already!”

“Oh where to start!
We were vacationing in Anna Maria for our 10th year and Beach Bistro was recommended for my birthday outing.
We called ahead and found that you have 2 choices here- the 4 course Dinner in main dining room- or- a la carte from bar area.
We chose the latter.
It was beautiful in looks right off. Old wood, low ceilings etc. Very warm and inviting!

Greeted by our bartender who was so gracious and kind.
Led us through anything we asked and made a fabulous drink !
We enjoyed those 2 hours more than we could say.
The food was one good bite after another !
We started with a fresh salad, then an appetizer of shrimp & crab which were perfect.
Entree was Lobster tail and Grouper. All fantastic!
The dessert was vanilla ice cream rolled in pralines topped with slivered almonds and Frangelica!
Still thinking of that now!

Cannot wait to go back next year as this is our new place to be !”

“Visited here for the first time this past weekend and it was amazing. The drinks were delicious but our server was OUTSTANDING. She was hilarious and attentive. I wish I remembered her name but she was amazing. It’s a small bar but I loved that, it’s very intimate.”

“The Shrimp and Lobster risotto is amazing! Can’t wait to have it again on our next trip.”

“Love their fish tacos! My husband had a hamburg on Monday night and enjoyed that too! We love coming on Monday night and Friday night for the live music!!! Mike Sales and Bobby Stillwell!!!!”

“Best place ever!! 👍🤘😊 First time here, met the most amazing people”

“This place is absolutely incredible! Good drinks and even better food. Bartender was having a great time which made everyone have a great time. The food was phenomenal with colcannon and poutine as clear stand outs - we’re going to try to go again before we leave town.”

“Genuine, kind and fun bartenders”

“This place had THE BEST bagel breakfast sandwiches! Fresh and REAL ingredients and the owner and staff were amazing! We will definitely frequent this place a few times whenever we’re blessed to be on the island. They made you feel like old friends, like we were locals. We talked about it the whole way to the airport. Thanks Jackie for the wonderful send off! Curious George and Jenn.”

“The pizza here was amazing! My family and I arrived late on Friday night and the owner (I didn't get his name) was so gracious to let us in and serve us. He was so welcoming and shared the history of the restaurant and gave us great tips in fun family things to do on the island. I am so glad we stopped in! It was a great experience! We will definitely be back!”

“Amazing dinner! Pizza. Italian sub. Philly steak and dessert. 5/5. Perfection”

“One the best meals and dining experiences my wife and I have ever had. Everything was an amazing. Server, Aaron, was fantastic and came prepared to perfectly explain the menu and provide recommendations. We are going back again tonight.”

“This is the absolute best Dunkin' I have ever visited. The staff in the morning are so happy. I wish I had the name of the your gentleman working every morning I went in. If he is not the owner the owners should be happy they have him.”
