This is our go to place for a great dinner or brunch. The oyster Rockefeller is out of this world. I'm not much for seafood but I can't get over how much I love this dish. Then always the filet mignon for me. They make it so good. Melts in your mouth. My friend always gets the seafood platter on the early bird menu. Time to get there before 4pm for best seating. Also the staff is the best. It's the only restaurant where I have seen everyone working together as one. No that's your table. Or I'll get your server. If you want a drink refilled. Anyone could help and is more than willing. I would have given five stars plus. But it is pretty expensive. Worth the price though

the hamburger was mediocre, salmon dinner was wonderful. Noise level absolutely terrible. The girl waitresses were the best. Worked so hard and were so efficient. The place was so crowded. Amazing they did so well. Not interested in going back although the food was very good I just can't stand the noise.

First off, this place is beautiful I loved how the place seemed so warm and welcoming, especially on a chilly day in Florida. I walked in with the hopes of getting some soup, and a salad and they had just that for $10. I ordered the Manhattan Clam Chowder and truth be told, it was literally just a vegetable soup. I think I may have gotten one piece of clam, but not sure if it was. It was still flavorful, and steaming hot which was what I asked for. The salad was your typical house salad, nothing fancy. Now the server. She was not friendly in any way, and seemed to want to rush us out. I was with my mom and she told the lady we were new and was never there before. When I asked her what the soup was, she said "Chicken Orzo soup" and I was not impressed since it was a seafood restaurant. So, my mom said to her, "Oh, I was hoping for clam chowder!" She looked at both of us and said they have clam chowder everyday. Like we were to know that. We already said we've never been there before. The soup on the menu only said "Soup of the day" and the prices. Nothing else about the soup selections. Maybe this server was having a bad day, but she wasn't nice and it wasn't a good first impression. I didn't catch her name, because she didn't introduce herself...but she was tall with brown hair, and probably 60's in age. I'll be back someday, because there's more I want to try, so hope the server is in a better mood or I'll sit somewhere else.

Paid a visit here last night. The place was packed, but we got in right away. The service was off the charts, the food was excellent! Our server was the friendliest, most outgoing person. We will definitely be back soon. The Octopus was delicious!

We are locals ..We go for the Grouper! The best ever! We pair it with the lemon butter thats usually served with the Chilean Sea Bass. Not a big eater? Its okay this grouper is enough to share...but, you won't want to once you taste it! Not a grouper fan..until having it at The Inn on the Gulf in Hudson!

Fantastic seafood and menu selections. They make their own salad dressing...blue cheese is to die for! Highly recommend.

We all enjoyed our visit to Inn on the Gulf! Waitress was great! Helpful and so friendly. Food is delicious . Everyone really liked their meals. Nicely decorated for the holidays. Highly recommend.
I had my first meal here in July 1987 the food was indescribably delicious and I have been coming back several times a year since. In the 37 years I have been coming here I have never been disappointed.

We are snowbirds from Ohio and when we are here this is our absolute favorite place to go. Surf & turf is the best!! However last night was a disappointment. The lobster was perfect but I'm pretty sure our filets were sirloins. We should have questioned it but didn't so that's on us. I've had enough filets to know how they look, cut, and taste. We both said something wasn't right. One in our party did have a filet and said it was so tender he could cut it with a butter knife...not so ours. So that being said I'm pretty sure we won't be back.

Here we are again. Cannot be in the area without eating here. This time did lunch and once again food was incredible. Our server was very friendly and a good sport. Nothing better than fresh seafood and a view of the gulf. Had the seafood linguine wife had grouper trio. Scarfed down her food before I could take photo. Can't recommend this place enough.

Had the filet medium rare... perfect! Could use some more seasoning, but the majority of their business seem over 70 years old, so I get it. Other than that it was cooked perfect. Absolute 5 star steak, only issue was I ordered rice for a side, and they gave me a potato. No big deal, but I asked for the rice and they charged me... family was happy, so I'm happy. Would go back for sure.

Excellent Service, Excellent Food! Restaurant was very busy but with a reservation we were seated immediately. Salads were fresh and delicious as were our pasta plates. The seafood pasta was excellent with plenty of huge scallops and shrimp. Alfredo sauce was perfect! My Manhattan was also perfectly made (a tough one to get right these days!). Plenty of food and no complaints!
