“I love BABA but i hadnt been to Barbouni. We happily found out that tins were BOGO on Thursdays. We had oysters, ikura, prawns, and cockles. The bartender James was so helpful informing us about all the different types of tins and what we could expect. Amazing accompaniments with our dishes, all thoughtful and unique dressings for our meal. Beautiful space, cant wait to be back“

“Bar Mastiff has been my go-to spot for years, I started going there about 15 years ago when it was still called Marsha’s and it remains my favorite bar ever. The lively atmosphere, great drinks, and friendly staff always make for an enjoyable time. However, during my recent visit, I encountered an issue with inclusivity that left me disappointed. Despite this, I still believe Bar Mastiff is a good place overall, and I encourage people to visit. It's my hope that they can become more inclusive of people with alternative lifestyles, as this would truly make it a perfect spot. The food at Bar Mastiff is nothing short of gourmet A1 perfection! Every dish that comes out of Steve's kitchen is like a masterpiece on a plate, elevating the dining experience to heavenly levels. Steve is truly a culinary god, crafting dishes with such finesse and flavor that it's hard to find anywhere else. If you're a foodie looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Bar Mastiff is the place to be. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!“

“The restaurant is really something special and not just a restaurant that you visit every day.
The prices are in the normal to slightly higher range.
The ambience is to die for, cozy, warm, chic and inviting.
The food tastes excellent. The meatloaf is to die for.
The noodles are wonderful!
The staff waiters are very attentive and kind.
The selection is small but the food is fresh and of high quality!“

“Great drinks, great bartenders, great music! The people vaping pot inside isn't great when you get a face full.“

“clean and beautiful bar. Blake was personable and very nice and made this my new favorite spot. the aperol spritz were on point.“

“I knew this was a great place when “Walk Away” by the James Gang was playing. Wife and I enjoyed a fantastic marg and tasty rum/coke during our visit while at Fort Desoto Campground. Friendly atmosphere.“

“My wife and I invited a friend to meet us for lunch at noon, looking forward to the AYCE crablegs advertised on the website. Tia was our server. Upon ordering, Tia said AYCE iis no longer on the menu, which was extremely disappointing as we each drove 1 hr+ for the deliciousness. Tia contacted the owner who approved the orders. They were excellent. Thank you Tia for going the extra mile. It was greatly appreciated !!!“

“Gorgeous venue!! From the moment you walk in the foyer and see the amazing floor tile and upscale decor. Think old school social club with round cocktail tables, each lit with a beautiful crystal lamp. There are also several seating areas with couches. The drinks are great and the entertainment is top notch. The only thing better than all of this is exceptional staff. Everyone from the doorman to the servers to the amazing manager Derek were so nice and accommodating. They really went over and above to ensure that we were taken care of. You just don’t see this level of personal service much anymore and I can honestly say they made us feel special and welcome. This place is truly a gem and sure to become the iconic go-to venue in St Pete.“

“It's been voted best dive bar for a reason. Go in sober, leave with a solid buzz smelling like an ashtray. Been going here for 28 years, won't stop coming. If you don't live here, maybe don't come here. Us locals need a place to avoid the tourists and snowbirds.“

“Amazing place. Excellent beer . Love the owner ! Bartenders were very cool !“

“Beautiful and clean hotel, nicest staff ever! They are not just dog friendly, they are dog lovers!!!“

“Love pier Teaki the vibe a blast. Sam was great and made sure we were seated comfortably, she wiped the table clean upon arrival and gave us her personal opinion when it came to ordering which made it easier to order quickly. She was awesome! Would definitely come back!“

“Recently spent the evening of my Birthday here and what a great time it was. Staff is super friendly and on top of everything from drinks to security! Highly recommend and plan to be back in the near future.“

“Me and my partner own the Royal Tot tiki bar in Charlotte. The menu is a little Gin heavy for a Tiki bar. We tasted 9 drinks from the menu but there is a wide variety. Some we liked, some weren't our jam but all of them were mixed well. Good bartenders (Cuba and another bartender that knew what she was doing), heavy pours, great DJ, great vibe, cool spot. Wish the second level was open but we came in Sunday to Monday late night. Great spot, great crowd. Will definitely come again the next time we are here. We know what goes into it. Keep up the great work!“

“Thank you for your support and donation of chicken wings to our 11th Annual Showers of Love Community Baby Shower! Without Community Partners such as you we couldn't do what we do!“

“Overall excellent experiences all around. Specifically, Trevor and Amber are incredible. Amber is always attentive and never makes a single customer wait for a drink whilst being engaging every moment. Trevor is certainly an entertainer, always available for witty banter or a casual conversation.Minus one star for the lack of pool chalk.“

“Love the Happy Hour specials! Live music and DJs too! Such a fun vibe!“

“I never use to leave a review but I was impressed by the coktail’s menu! I travel a lot and have never seen that. They started with 269 (as their direction) choices (and now reached more they told me) of very originals and audatious cocktails and shots. The choice, the visual, the taste, the sympathy of the bartender/barmaids, the decoration… really cool! Best cocktails in town. Very inspiring. And respect to the servers for working with this big menu. Curious people, COME HERE. And the price is lower than other bars 🤌😭
Thank you!“
