“I wrote a review several years ago and thought it was time to update. The owners are awesome-warm, friendly, and hard-working! The menu has grown with lots of choices and the food is fantastic! Service is great with a really friendly staff and lots of smiles. Clean and very comfortable inside and outside. Great assortment of beers and wine. Added live music which is a big plus. As I did several years ago I will again highly recommend Waypoint.“
“We met with friends at this place for a meeting. This spot was recommended to us by a friend. Well, it was a winning. The crew welcomed us with a smile and we had an excellent feeling. The meal was yummy. We loved this spot very much and we will visit this place again. We recommend this place to all.“
“Always stopped by every time I come in town to see my parents . Nice groups of people, great service, great food and drinks menu selections, and nice outdoor seatings. Highly recommended booking a reservation for a group of 2 or more. They also make the best chocolate martini in town!“
“Must have been an off night. We heard the bacon wrapped scallops were good and fresh. We ordered them and unfortunately they were small and dry. Everyone else at the table tried different burgers. They were good and the portions were very generous.“
“After a visit to the AMI farmers market, we decided to try the world (or at least island:) favorite Duffy’s Tavern cheeseburger. It IS a tavern, smallish, noisy, all orders are placed at the bar, but since pubs, taverns and roadhouse’s are some of my favorite places, I was in my element. We had two bacon-cheeseburgers with the fixin’s and their homemade tater’ salad. They were perfectly cooked, delicious and under $25! If it gets too noisy for you, there is a very private outdoor side courtyard where you can feel the sun n’ breezes.“
“A Pleasurable Dining Experience at R.J. Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL Rating: 4 out of 5 stars We just went to visit to R.J. Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL and it was an overall pleasurable dining experience. From the moment we stepped in, I was captivated by the restaurant’s neat and inviting atmosphere, accompanied by an awesome menu that delighted my taste buds. R.J.’s has done an exceptional job in creating a welcoming environment. The restaurant was clean, and the tastefully neat decor contributed to a cozy and comfortable ambiance. I found myself instantly relaxed and ready to enjoy a fantastic meal. Speaking of the menu, R.J.’s certainly knows how to impress. The array of options available was remarkable, showcasing a diverse range of culinary delights. I was delighted to find both familiar favorites and unique dishes that piqued my curiosity. Each bite I took was a testament to the chef’s skill and dedication, as the food was undeniably yummy. In addition to the delectable flavors, Gator’s also excelled in providing reasonable prices and generous portions. I felt that the value for money was excellent, and the portion sizes were more than satisfactory. It was evident that R. J.’s takes pride in ensuring their customers are satisfied both in terms of taste and quantity. While my experience was largely positive, I did encounter a minor setback with the service. The waitress seemed slightly inattentive during my visit, which occasionally required me to seek her attention multiple times. However, this did not overshadow the overall excellence of the restaurant. In conclusion, Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL offers a delightful dining experience. The neat atmosphere, awesome menu, and delicious food combine to create a memorable visit. Despite a minor issue with the service, I wholeheartedly recommend here for anyone seeking a satisfying meal in a cozy setting!!“
“My favorite bar is Sarasota/Bradenton. The food reminds me of back home in Pennsylvania. The people remind me of a combination of the best people from the Eagles, Moose, and Elks combined with a family reunion of my favorite family members. I love this place.“
“I had a great time there, especially listening to Koko Ray. His song choices were perfect, and his volume was great. It was so nice to be able to eat and have a conversation, while listening to a great performer. Hopefully, one day they will allow me to perform there.“
“I've never been to Clancy's. I'm visiting from Michigan. My GF wanted to go watch the game. The service was great. There's plenty of TV's. The customers cheered at the game. This is a very cozy and relaxing pub with plenty of friendly people.“
“Love this place! Really like the fried grouper sandwich, but the atmosphere is so relaxing and makes it easy to unplug and listen to the band they have playing. You can even play volleyball if you want and you can pull your boat up to enjoy a meal.Great Place, wish I could get there more.“
“This place has one of the best atmospheres on the island. Very casual and laid back. Live music is always good. Whatever side of the street you’re on it’s just a good time to be here. Food is average and service at a table can be a bit slow because of how busy it gets. However the bartenders when you’re sitting at the open bar are quick to get you your drink. Highly recommend for a good time.“
“We had a great experience eating lunch at Whiskey Joe’s. When we got there a little bit before 12 noon on a Sunday, it wasn’t too busy, but the place quickly filled up. With beautiful weather and outdoor seating directly on the water, everyone preferred to sit outside. They have a large outdoor bar too, which is nice if you are just looking to grab drinks with a beautiful view. We ordered several different foods, including the loaded island fries, wings, grouper sandwich, tiki chicken breast, and jambalaya. Everything was delicious and the island fries were even filling enough to serve as an entree. The service was also excellent. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and the view made it even better. We will definitely be back again!“
“The food was amazing! We stopped here for lunch before noon on a Monday in March.We had a part of four and ordered the Bottomless Chips & Salsa with Beer Cheese. They hit the spot and we ended up getting a second round (for free, since it’s bottomless). The beer cheese really makes it special and was delicious.Everyone ordered something different for lunch. I ordered the Chop (salad) and really liked it. It had real bacon and the ranch dressing tasted awesome.My husband ordered the Triple Decker Turkey, my son got the Buffalo Chicken sandwich and my daughter got the Classic Burger. See photos. Everyone loved their meal. The fries were great!We really wanted to eat outside (honestly that never happens, but here the weather was beautiful). But, it was really windy and the sign outside blew over and it was just too windy for us, so we moved inside. The outside seating is plentiful and has a nice view.I counted tried to count the number of televisions, I got 15 but that might not be accurate. They have a lot of TV’s.This place had a great vibe.As far as service, we had to flag down the waitress a couple times, since she didn’t stop by and ask if we wanted more chips/salsa (you could see the beer cheese was gone and salsa was almost empty) and when we were ready for the check. I’d recommend letting the wait staff know that they should check back in more often. The place only had a few tables filled so it wasn’t super busy.We don’t live in Florida, but would definitely go back to this restaurant next time we visit and highly recommend.This restaurant is in a great location within Lakewood Ranch in the Main Street area.Parking: There are a few parking spots right out front or there is a parking lot that is walkable that has plenty of parking.“
“A great place to go and watch a marina under tiki bar roof. For a dockside bar a great deal more seating than normal, And for waterfront of a reasonable price.And because it wasn't on there the best onion rings I've ever had that my own mother didn't make.Vegetarian options: It is a fish house on the water, these were not meant for vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: I would not assume there are any specific dietary restrictions that are going to be accommodated.Parking: There is a limited Marina parking lot right behind the restaurant other than that you have to seek a parking space at the hotel in any number of various locations if you go around to the front of the hotel on the south side of the lot you can normally park a boat trailer with a truck without too much trouble or being in anyone's way, or at least an hour or two.Wheelchair accessibility: Low ramps going everywhere, on the west side of the restaurant is a gravel lot, it will be much easier access coming in from the southeast side I'm going down the hallway.“
“Lived right down the little dirt road.I would get off from work an slide on in to my favorite Bar .Fondly remember nothing but a GOOD TIME .Check it out it's a fun time.?Thanks for the memories ✌️?Kid-friendliness: Southern Hospitality Family . Bring the kids ??Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access to everything. Y'ALL CHECK IT OUT .“
“Indoor and outdoor seating. Sits right along the main road, so it's a bit noisy if you're sitting outside. Close to Bradenton Beach pier. Service and food were great. Bathrooms are located on the second floor of the building, there are stairs and an elevator for access.“
“We come in every year while visiting family in FL. We’ve always been happy however this year was exceptional! From all the food to our server Cecelia we could not have been more satisfied. Thank you for another enjoyable experience for our yearly visit!“
