““Charcuterie? More like Char-cu-dreamy.”
Listen, if I were a mouse with a credit card and refined taste, I would absolutely blow my tiny rodent salary at Lolita’s Wine Market every single weekend. This place is cheese-and-meat heaven, and frankly, it should be illegal to have this much flavor under one roof.
First of all, let’s talk boards. You think you're going in for a cute date night, next thing you know you’re six cheeses deep into The Lola Board wondering if you should text your ex just to show them what they’re missing. (Spoiler: don’t. Just order more prosciutto.)
We went full send with the Gambas al Ajillo and Paella, and let me tell you, I blacked out from joy somewhere between “jumbo shrimp” and “chimichurri.” I came back to consciousness with a spoonful of Fire + Ice ceviche, which sounds like a Game of Thrones spin-off, but instead, it’s ahi tuna with lychee, jalapeño, and a granita that slapped me across the soul.
The dates (not your Hinge match, the edible kind) were stuffed with chorizo and gorgonzola, and I’m still emotionally recovering. Sweet, spicy, creamy, and possibly magical. If Cupid made tapas, this would be it.
Need to feel fancy? Order the Delice de Bourgogne triple cream and say it loudly so the whole patio knows you have impeccable taste and probably own a cheese knife set. Then hit ‘em with a duck mousse port wine pâté chaser because life’s short and pâté is a flex.
Wine? Yes, obviously. Pair it with everything. Pair it with your thoughts. Pair it with that internal voice that says, “Get the pineapple-date chutney too.” (Spoiler: It’s right.)
Pro tip: Don’t skip the spreads. The whipped feta and ricotta were so divine I briefly considered smearing them directly on my face. They come with ciabatta, but I could’ve eaten them with a flip-flop and still been thrilled.
In short, Lolita’s isn’t just a wine bar—it’s a lifestyle. It’s where cheese dreams go to be fulfilled, and where even the dates (again, the food kind) are stuffed with ambition. If you’re not here by sundown with a glass in hand and a beet carpaccio in your mouth, wyd???
I’d give it 6 stars if I could. One for each cheese-induced tear of joy.”

“Our group of thirteen dined here today to celebrate two birthdays, seated at two tables. We spent close to $800, and I have to say — the food was exceptional and our server was outstanding. The staff provided warm and attentive service that truly stood out. Unfortunately, what should have been a joyful celebration was tainted by the behavior of the new ownership. A gentleman, who appeared to be part of the new management team (a man in his early forties), sat and later stood in different areas of the restaurant, repeatedly glancing at our group — the only African American party in the establishment — as if we were out of place. At no point did he acknowledge our tables or the two ladies whose birthdays we were celebrating. Yet, he made a point to warmly engage with non-Black patrons seated at the bar. The contrast was noticeable and deeply disappointing. In 2025, it’s disheartening that anyone still needs to be reminded that the color of money is green, and respect should not be selective. We value ourselves, our experiences, and where we choose to spend our hard-earned money. While the food was phenomenal, the lack of respect and basic acknowledgment from ownership left a lasting negative impression. We will not be returning, and I truly hope the new owner learns that real hospitality includes treating every guest with dignity and appreciation — not just those who resemble him. #Disappointed”

“If anyone watched “Jiro Dreams of Sushi” documentary film and you are a sushi lover you should try this place “Sushi Sho Rexley” near Sundial. This film is about an 85-year-old sushi master and owner of Sukiyabashi Jiro, previously a Michelin three-star restaurant. Sukiyabashi Jiro is a 10-seat, sushi-only restaurant located in a Tokyo subway station. We have this kind of high quality sushi restaurant and only 10 seats. We get to enjoy heavenly delicious sushi like film with sake paring in St. Pete last night. What can I say! It’s a fantastic experience and culture for 2 hours.”

“This afternoon I joined 22 friends for High Tea at Jack's. The food was better than the High Teas I had in England. Perhaps this is due to them making everything in house: fresh baked bread for the finger sandwiches, puff pastries with cream and jam, rum spiked fruit cake...all delicious. If you've never been to England, and still want the authentic experience, gather some friends and arrange with Jack's for a delightful afternoon of tea, food and conversation.”

Amazing accompaniments with our dishes, all thoughtful and unique dressings for our meal. Beautiful space, cant wait to be back”

“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!!”

“Wonderful casual family-owned sushi/hibachi restaurant in the heart of St Pete! We made a reservation through Google and our table for 10 was ready when we arrived. The owner and his son Khoi were so welcoming and attentive. We tried a huge variety of sushi, salads, seared tuna, and hibachi entrées. All were absolutely delicious with very generous portions and reasonable prices. Tons of gluten-free and vegetarian options and the ginger salad dressing was so good I brought home my leftovers! Highly recommend for carryout or dine in and look forward to returning again soon. Loved Mr. sushi!!!”

“First time here since it opened, and what a delight. We sat out on the porch near the water which made it nice. Our server was on point, the food was very fresh for what I could order. So many things I wanted to try, but with a seafood allergy and they use the same fryer for everything that was a little disappointing but nothing I'm not used to. Got the blackened chicken sandwich and that was so tasty. I couldn't eat the fries because of the allergy but my friend didn't mind taking it 😜 also the trufflekoptia... Didn't think I was going to like the honey, I was mistaken!! Delish!!🤤 Of course you have to try the cocktail menu also, very unique and tasty!”

There’s also a regular dining area that looks like a good date spot. I’ll definitely go back!”

“Beech Kombucha is absolutely un-‘BEECH’-lievable! Stumbled (or should I say, fermented?) upon this gem while killing time before a comedy show, and let me tell you, the real joke would’ve been not stopping by. I’ve now been back three times, and each visit has been a ‘brew’-tiful experience. The best part? The ever-rotating lineup of flavors keeps things fresh—no chance of things going stale here! Every sip is a delightful surprise, and I love that there’s always something new to try. The vibe? Immaculate. The first time, we cozied up indoors, where the eclectic furniture made for a quirky and inviting atmosphere—perfect for conversation. On return visits, we took full advantage of the backyard-style outdoor space, which is not only spacious but also dog-friendly. Our pup gave it two paws up and is now fully on board for future visits. And let’s talk about the staff—beyond friendly! I’m admittedly terrible with names, but I believe it was Julian who guided us through the kombucha selections with expertise and enthusiasm. His recommendations were spot on, making the whole experience even better. Oh, and just when I thought things couldn’t get tastier, a food vendor was serving up Mexican-style tamales and street food on our last visit. The pairing? Chef’s kiss. If you haven’t given Beech Kombucha a shot, what are you waiting for? It’s a ‘brew’-tiful place with fantastic drinks, a killer vibe, and a welcoming team. Trust me—one visit, and you’ll be ‘hop’-ing back for more!”

Pro tip - mix the ciders lake raspberry and blueberry for unique flavors!!! Live music and events. This is a go to place for locals. Plenty of parking on their lot, street. Plenty of games to play. I'm not a bring 'your kid to the brewer' kind of guy but apparently you can. Absolutely friendly staff!!!”

“𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: 𝐀 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐁𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐀𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧 Mangosteen - St Petersburg, Florida I had the great pleasure of dining at Mangosteen - a culinary oasis, offering a delightful fusion of Southeast Asian and Japanese flavors that tantalize the taste buds and transport diners to distant lands. Nestled within its tropical-inspired ambiance, Mangosteen crafts a dining experience that is as exotic as it is comforting. From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with an atmosphere that embodies the spirit of Southeast Asia. The decor, infused with vibrant hues and natural elements, sets the stage for a journey of culinary exploration. -- Michael Glinter has traveled to 68 countries and 36 states to get the flavor of some amazing foods. His view on reviews is simple – Taste, Presentation, and Service. He believes telling the reader a positive and negative unbiased look at the restaurant is essential. -- This is not at all what you are thinking - this is not Chinese. This is truly and inspiration from the diverse cuisines of the entire Asia Pacific region, offering a tantalizing array of dishes that are as bold in flavor as they are artfully presented and bursting with unique fresh ingredients, herbs, and vegetables. -- Appetizer - Delightfully surprising and bursting with flavor, the Chicken Papaya Lettuce Wrap appetizer was a true gem that deserves the spotlight. Nestled within crisp, fresh lettuce leaves, the tender chicken and vibrant papaya filling create a harmonious symphony of taste and texture. You are greeted with a mix of savory goodness, as the succulent chicken mingles with the sweetness of ripe papaya and the aromatic herbs and spices adds depth and complexity to each mouthful, while the crunch of water chestnuts provides a satisfying contrast. Entree #1 - Prepare your taste buds for a journey of exquisite flavors with the Mangosteen Noodle, an entree that captivates the palate and leaves a lasting impression. showcasing again the use of harmony of fresh ingredients and expert craftsmanship. The dish present itself with an aroma of stir-fried rice noodles, chicken, basil, scallion, and bell pepper dances tantalizingly in the air with vibrant colors and fragrant herbs promise a feast for the senses, and the Mangosteen Noodle delivers on every count. The tender chicken, perfectly cooked and infused with the rich flavors of soybean sauce, forms the heart of the dish. Combined with the subtle sweetness of basil, the crispness of scallions, and the earthy crunch of onions and bell peppers, every bite is a delightful explosion of taste. Entree #2 - Embark on a culinary adventure with the Pad Lao, an entree that showcases the vibrant flavors and textures of Southeast Asia. The dish arrived with the smell of stir-fried rice noodles, tender chicken, and fresh scallions through the air as you are presented with a display of beautiful color, with vibrant greens from the scallions and crisp beansprouts mingling with golden strands of egg and crunchy peanuts. The savory chicken is perfectly complemented by the sweetness of the sweet and sour sauce, creating a harmonious balance of tastes, and the noodles, cooked to perfection, provide a satisfying chewiness that contrasts beautifully with the crunch of the beansprouts and peanuts. In conclusion, Mangosteen is more than just a restaurant — it's a culinary odyssey. With its innovative blend of flavors, impeccable service, and inviting ambiance, it's no wonder why Mangosteen remains a beloved destination for food enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable dining experience. It is very clear that the chef has a deep understanding of flavor profiles and a passion for creating dishes that delight the senses. If I had my choice, I would taste every dish on the money and write about it. Something tells me, they don't miss a detail. Had an amazing culinary journey with my cousing Josh Finegold”

Seated immediately in half empty restaurant. staff standing around by front door. reviewing menu, 10 minutes later, another couple comes in and gets seated and order taken within a couple of minutes while we were being totally ignored. no idea who is waiting on us, nobody came by..no drink request. waited a few minutes more, couple gets food? you aren't busy, plenty of staff.. no excuse. last time we were there waitress not friendly and dismissive...so not first bad experience... we left, we won't we back. such a shame since we are regulars, and I usually recommend people go there.”

“Really great food! Smoke flavor was there, meat was tender and perfectly sauced! We got the brisket tacos, flavors were spot on. They could have used a little more crunch but definitely a crowd pleaser! The mac and cheese was killer and fries were perfectly fried! My husband ate most of the nachos on the drive home (we live 5 mins away! 😵💫) he raved about the chips and the great portions of toppings! Excellent spot, will definitely be back!”

“I came to Ceviche specifically for the ceviche, and it did not disappoint! The fish was incredibly fresh, perfectly marinated, and bursting with bright citrus flavors. The balance of acidity, spice, and seasoning was spot on, making each bite refreshing and satisfying.
The portion size was pretty reasonable for 2 people, the presentation was beautiful. I also appreciated the variety of ceviche options on the menu, catering to different tastes and different fish.
I’d say the only catch is, is a glass of wine will run you about 15+ a glass and the service could be better. Other than that, it’s a great place to splurge on one of the best ceviche places in town!

Asian Fusion • $$
“Asian Fusion with a Touch of Italian Green Pagoda has a pleasant atmosphere. They could do better quality control on making sure the plates are clean. Our server was pleasant and helpful with the menu. But after he took our order we didn’t see him again until we were done and asked for the check. (Someone else delivered the food.) So, he never checked to see if our food was OK or to refill water. As for the food, it was pretty good overall. We started with very nice coconut soup (basically a Thai tom kha), if slightly too sweet. The pork dumplings were very good. The ginger chicken entrée had nice flavor, but the chicken pieces were a little tough. The server highly recommended the snapper risotto, which seemed an odd choice for an Asian restaurant. Nevertheless, the snapper was a generous piece and nicely cooked. The sauce on it was delicious. The risotto, however, was on the gummy side when it should have had a silky texture. I would go to Green Pagoda again and try the whole fish and some sushi.”

“It has a great outdoor place and dog friendly. That was nice but I ordered the black bean burger which was terrible. It was the blandest/zero flavor Burger that I’ve ever had. And it cost $13, not worth it. The tater tots were good. I will not order that again”

“Food was steamed to perfection. I paid so much more for overcooked seafood at SPINNERS where wine is 16dollars a glass.This place knows how to cook seafood where a 10dollar lobster and huge shrimp are better than high price places. Waiter explained menu choices patiently and my drink was amazing even on 5dollar margarita nite.nice and strong.A northerner my first seafood boil was a fun and delicious. No seafood better at any price.”

“We absolutely love the charm and aesthetic of this venue! My husband and I would frequent the drag and burlesque shows they’d put on. They would be next level shows you can’t find anywhere else! The place would be packed and the energy would make you feel like the you slipped back in time. We desperately miss making these events our monthly treat out for ourselves!! Like RuPaul once said “Bring back my girls!”.”

“Had a family dinner at Baba last night and as always the food was delectable! We order a sizeable combo of selections from their consistently amazing menu. All the spreads, octopus, falafel, roasted chicken, lemony orzo, snapper skewers, and more (desserts!) Yum!
The highlight is always our waitress, Teal, who we call ahead to request every time. She is lovely, professional and well versed on the menu of the day/ season. We adore her 😊.
Baba is a guaranteed delicious choice for our family and friends ~ every time!”

If you happen to get lucky and grab a seat by the bar you will not regret it. The bartender, Carissa has a great personality, knows her stuff and has great recommendations. The brisket is delicious and the shredded chicken chimichanga with the house queso is to die to! I recommend this restaurant to all of my friends and to you as well.”

“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.

“Great Breakfast Finally! A place where all parts of the breakfast were great. The eggs were right. The ham was thick and well seared. The grits, almost impossible to find good ones in Pinellas County, were perfect—not gummy, not watery, not bland. Service was friendly and efficient. The place is busy and lively and mostly clean (bathrooms could stand an updating.) Prices were fair. I will gladly return.”

For food a Jam-on-It Sandwich which was quite nice. We also had a berry yogurt bowl. The yogurt was delicious and the fruit and granola on it were great. The scone we got, nicely warmed, was delicious. I’ll return, but I’ll try for a dry weekday.”
