“Anna Maria Oyster Bar - Ellenton, FL After spending the day at the Florida State Fair in Tampa, my fiancé and I decided to stop by Anna Maria Oyster Bar in Ellenton—and we’re so glad we did! We ordered fried oysters, French fries, and cheese grits, and everything was absolutely delicious. The oysters were fried to perfection, crispy on the outside yet tender and flavorful inside. The cheese grits were just the way I like them—nice and thick—and the fries were a great complement to the meal. Even better, our food arrived quickly and fresh. Our waitress, Lilly, was fantastic, providing friendly and attentive service. We also appreciated how the rest of the staff greeted us warmly as we walked through the restaurant. It’s little details like that that make a place feel extra welcoming. The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept, including the bathrooms, which is always a big plus. Anna Maria Oyster Bar now has four locations, and after this experience, I’d definitely visit again. If you’re in the Ellenton area and craving fresh seafood with great service, this spot is a must-try!“

“I recently ordered the Tofu w/ Mixed Veg and Tofu Green Curry from China Palace and was honestly amazed at how delicious they both were. It was refreshing to see tofu on the menu since not everyone offers it, but I was even more impressed with how well they'd prepared each entree. The amount of flavor they managed to get into every bite of tofu was truly remarkable and very skillful. They're going to be my new go-to for takeout now.“

“Service is great, love the employees here. BUT WHY THE PLACE SO HOT??? Turn down the a/c please. We shouldn't be sweating while eating our soup.“

“We always enjoy Olive Garden. Soup and salad is our go to for lunch. Chicken gnocchi soup did not have any gnocchi and we were finished our salad and breadsticks before the soup made it to our table. That is the only issue that we ever had. The waitress was very apologetic.“

“I stop in there for the first time today I never knew they was there I got to say they have the best food around and the service was very good i will most definitely go back there that is for sure“

“We ordered some good and I got bacon/ Mac and cheese and unfortunately the Mac didn't have any bacon. I spoke to Scottie on the phone and he realized the mistake and knew it was late since they were closing. He said he would fix this for me ant for me to stop in if I could and he would give me the bacon and refund me for the Mac and cheese. He was really sincere and polite. As a small business owner myself, I know around closing things can get hectic. I just wanted to say thank you Scottie for doing the right thing and making me and my wife a happy customer. We will be back. Customer service is huge, and he went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of.“
