“Food, service, cocktails and ambiance top notch. It was amazing!“

“It took me too long to try this funky little place out. Clean cool place with friendly staff and great food. Reminds me of an old school drive through with great smash burgers,and a variety of other sandwiches. Tater tots and fried okra ? Who has that any more, it's great!! This little place will make you a believer.“

“Got the chicken Caesar wrap on our last visit to Gulfport as I had seen it online somewhere. It was the best I have ever had. We split it and it was plenty. Definitely going back there again!“

“The food was absolutely amazing & the service was just as good! Will definitely be back when we visit St Pete’s again!“

“My son, mom and I stopped in for an early dinner after my son's basketball game. This was our 1st time here and we absolutely loved the food. I highly recommend the "Cool ranch rider" has a nice kick to it the only thing I did differently was ranch instead of mayo and banana peppers instead of hot peppers. My son had the "Turkey bacon" minus onion and tomato as well as sub the mayo for ranch he absolutely loved it!! My mom got the "Roast Beast" loved hers as well!! We decided to try the Lemon Blueberry cheesecake, it too was delicious!! We will definitely be back!! The ladies that helped us with our order were super sweet and made us feel very welcomed!! Loved the vibe. Reggae music playing as well, just overall a great place!! We were at the 3rd Avenue location for reference!!“

“The best bread pudding I have ever had in my life!! And the mac n cheese, yes please 🤤 The main courses were fantastic too and the artwork had good vibes. Did I mention the bread pudding?!“

“Stayed here on an overnight, hadn't been in 10 years, and I had forgotten the quaint atmosphere of this place. Combined with good food and great friendly service, it's a great stop in St Petersburg whether you stay at the hotel or not. Some good daily specials, for both food and drink. Again came face to face with NAM (which stands for Not A Moose, from what I overheard! He's a caribou!) who overlooks the bar. This place is worth a visit if you've never been here!“

“I respectfully cannot give O’Maddy less than five stars. My sister had her wedding here -hell- there’s even a drink named after my sister’s mother-in-law!

But do not worry, dear reviewer, though we are biased, we are honest.

Parking: Despite the limited parking, we happened to get a front row “princess parking” spot right in front of the building. If you don’t get as lucky as we are, there is more parking around the corner if you are willing to walk.

Atmosphere: the vibes are immaculate, as any cozy pub can be! Even more so because O’Maddy’s has big, open-air seating that looks right out onto the bay. As a girl from Oregon seeing a REAL beach (one that isn’t wild, freezing, and liable to kill you), I found it soothing to see the tropic, warm water. This evening, the Australia vs. US soccer game was on (the US won 2-0), and it would have been an amazing game to watch, but we just so happened to be seated at one of the only tables without access to a television. (This can be forgiven, though, since they were able to seat a party of 8 with no wait time.)

Food: the nephew gives his bun only to his hot dog 5/5 stars. He tried giving a thumbs up, but we are still learning that skill. Overall, the party was happy with their food. We unanimously agreed that the French fries are top tier, and all French fries need to taste and look like the ones from O’Maddys’. It’s not just greasy pub fare!

We love O’Maddys. Heck, I just flew 2k miles to eat there! I even walked away with a cool t-shirt.“

“56 of us stopped in for breakfast Saturday Feb 12th. They sat everyone immediately with no problems. The waitstaff was really fast , professional and attentive. Our server didn’t miss beat. Even with so many people ordering at the same time. I sat with a group of ten and everyone’s order was spot on and delicious. I highly recommend you visit Popis!“

“Loving our stay here in a spacious suite. I have slept better here than I have in years! We had dinner out in the courtyard. The redfish was locally sourced and delicious. The soft shell crab was very good according to my friend. It’s a quirky place to stay, but very well run. Love the breakfast delivered in the morning.“

“Mexican Pizza... nuff said!“

“Excellent food from a tiny kitchen. This is a must experience!“

“Only at happy hour , otherwise oysters are expensive“

“Went here with some friends on a Friday night. They had live music and really nice dart boards 🎯 the place wasn't that big but it was the perfect size & very welcoming 😎 the main reason I wanted to leave a review was because of their food. I had their special which was a Prime rib 😮 with french fries on garlic toast, it was delicious, there fries are amazing. Everything that my friends had they also loved.. All of the staff were amazing very friendly. Even the cook came out and asked how we enjoyed our food. The prices are unbeatable. I had dinner and a drink for 20 bucks prior to going to the blind shark. We had gone to another bar and it cost me 30 bucks to have two drinks.🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣😎..“

“Atmosphere, food and service was amazing. Wonderful dining experience.“

“Absolutely the best brunch we have had anywhere in years. I highly recommend this fantastic restaurant!“

“The best restaurant on earth. It can't be done better. You could maybe do it differently but not better.

Perfect on every single course, elements of service. Amazing personable engaging staff.

Stellar pastry, baking, desserts.

Tuna sashimi with caviar and Osaka vinaigrette. Mind bending great.
Absolute perfection.

It's hard to get to. I had to fly to luxembourg. But I wish I could go again.

Cristian Bau is a god among chefs. And his staff are spectacular.

Every single detail was flawless. I am grateful that I was able to have this experience. It has left a watermark so high, I fear I'll never experience it again.“

“We were in SPB this past week. Rick’s was a couple blocks away. Went there for breakfast and supper and every time, the food was awesome! Service was top notch. Such a fun little place to go. We’ll definitely hit them up next time we’re up there.“

“We dined on Easter Sunday 2025 and experienced the most fabulous food, atmosphere, and service!“

“It was delicious, service excellent, and is good to know that master chef John Berrocal is there helping this amazing restaurant“

“Open mic night is very good. Very laid back.“

“We had a two hour business lunch here that started at 2:30. Definitely not busy but our service was excellent. We ended up with dozens of oysters and margarita pizzas. Oysters were from the northeast and were excellent served with a variety of topping options. The pizzas were really good…“

“We rented the restaurant out for an engagement photography session, and the staff was very accommodating! The architecture was stunning. We can’t wait to go back!“

“Was a 5 star now a 3. I've been coming here every Tuesday for 2 years and it's been an excellent experience. Since the change in servers/ personnel ,the service and experience has declined greatly. Our table waited 15 minutes for a server at 3:00. Katie (bartender) and Avery (server) are excellent and should work the bar area.“

“It’s always a great eating experience for me Weather I Uber eats are dine in and I love the healthy options💯💯‼️‼️“

“Great staff!!! Large menu. Well prepared food!“

“No one came to seat us. I had to go the bar and ask if I could seat myself. The hotel bar and restaurant are connected to the pool area which wasn’t ideal for an expensive dinner date in our hotel. The snapper was cooked well but the sauce was more of an Alfredo and really thick. I also had the broccolini and asparagus,I could have had a whole plate of these. The New York strip wasn’t a good cut but had good flavor. The beers were served in an ice cold mug which was really nice. Our waitress was great and saved this review rating.

Dietary restrictions: A lot of gluten free options“

“Good food and good service!! I highly recommend eating here!! The calamari and the gnocchi are DELICIOUS!!“

“We had a table of 9, our 1st time coming here for a work dinner, I had read great reviews and recommended we try it..they lived up to every wonderful review I’d read…they did not disappoint! The atmosphere is super nice, the service was excellent and the food was superb!..prepared as ordered and delicious! I’ll definitely be back!“

“I was there for my birthday and I had a great time the ambiance was great and our waitress was so pleasant her name is Jeanae. I enjoyed talking to her.“

“We had a really fantastic brunch. Everything about this restaurant is elevated. Fantastic service, very special presentation of excellent food, beautiful inside and out. Highly recommend. I found the prices very reasonable.“
