The Frog Pond Downtown St. Petersburg

This restaurant has the nastiest waiter/store manager. The owner was also there. However me and my family decided to take a group of 15+ ppl to dine in for a youth birthday. The waiter snatched checked from us once she disregarded our ask of split checks. We was aware of the gratuity automatically being taking out. That's when services started to decrease in quality. She added thing to our bill and refused to fix it. Spilt water on two of us and was mad /nervous about servicing people of color/ AA- African Americans. This place is will never recommend. Also I will be reaching out to corporate. WORST DINNING EXPERIENCE EVERRRRRR.

Very cute atmosphere, but the menu prices aren't what you actually pay at checkout. I think our meal cost about $10 more than the menu prices, which is significant for a breakfast for two adults and two kids' meals. This wouldn't be so bad if the food was amazing, however, our breakfast was simply mediocre. The pancakes tasted like boxed bisquick mix, and the omelettes and hash had surprisingly little taste. I hope they will put honest prices on their menu soon.

Ownership failure on all accounts. Terrible quality of food. Sat for 10 minutes before offered coffee. (8 people in restaurant)
The “shaved” roast beef is pre sliced Oscar Meyer style roast beef with a texture of cheap bologna.
Egg beaters used instead of real eggs
The coleslaw that was served was browning and sour.
When you order home fries you expect them to be homemade. That’s why the are called home fries. They served pre cooked, pre cut frozen potatoes that were reheated and seasoned on a flat iron.
Nothing we ordered was scratch made. This is a prime example of cutting corners in every way possible from the kitchen. Shameful and disgusting food.

These people lie and say it's they are same frog pond at the beach but far from it they can never compare. I love the one at the beach it's my favorite. I would drive an hour over to the beach just to eat there from Brandon but they’re closed down after the hurricane can’t wait till they open up again. If they wouldn’t say that they were the same company you wouldn’t try to compare restaurants but they always surprise me Because when I come in there and start ordering and even looking at their menu, there is no comparison. If you come to this restaurant, don’t compare them to the one at the beach you’re gonna be disappointed as I always am. I’m just never gonna come back here again because I’m always disappointed. The coffee isn’t good. They're Blitz is disgusting It just doesn’t compare at all. I could do better cooking at my own home And then walk out with a $70
bill.. What a waste of money

We were a large group with distinct tastes - everyone was pleased with their choices - the omelets are large enough to share, but tasty enough to not do so. We arrived at the beginning of lunch hour and our server became quite busy, so we'll time our arrival for earlier or later in the day.

PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW. THE OWNER SHAMES HIS EMPLOYEES IN FRONT OF CUSTOMERS WHEN YOU DO. IT IS WHY HE CANNOT KEEP GOOD PEOPLE. THERE ARE WAY BETTER PLACES IN ST. PETE THAT TREAT THEIR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT AND KINDNESS. THANK YOU FOR HELPING TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITY A BETTER PLACE. ❤️

Ok so we were in town for the weekend and ate here twice. The first time our experience was absolutely amazing. Great service and great food. The second day was a little busier so of course the waitresses are doing their best to accommodate everyone. When we received our food we were missing a part of our meal, we needed maybe 3 condiments and a straw. We tried to get the attention of OUR waitress but she was busy and another one by the name of Ally or Hallie, very thin, long thin curly dark hair came in her place. We knew we were needing multiple things so when she came we spoke to her and started asking for the items. Before we could name all of them off she interrupts us and say “PLEASE?” As if we weren’t going to say please and thank you as we always do. She made it as if we didn’t have manners and I noticed several of her tables asked her for items and didn’t say please and she let them finish their requests without interruption. We are NEVER rude to any one working in food or customer service and this is the only reason I didn’t give a 5 star. It kinda put us in a bit of a mood. Other than the experience with her, I’d recommend eating here. Portions are great and menu is really great as well.

Frog themed restaurant. Service was good. Food was average. If you’re not buying the specials, then the food can get a little pricey.

I was here right before hurricane Milton. I found this restaurant and what a great find!

The food was delicious and the service was super friendly.

I got the Frog Benedict and loved it. Everything is really fresh.

We talked with the owner and he said that he has never closed for a hurricane and didn't plan to this time.

I hope to come back tomorrow!
