I had the butter shrimp and it was absolutely excellent — every bite was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The highlight of the experience was definitely the bartender, Doug, He made everything feel special and elevated the entire visit. The atmosphere, the food, the views and the service — all 5 stars. I can’t wait to come back!

Big Bamboo Bayside is truly a hidden gem. I have eaten there several times now and have enjoyed everything I’ve ordered—the bayside kebab was yummy, the eggs and bacon breakfast was as well. And of course, the setting, surrounded by water, really makes it. It is no surprise that Big Bamboo Bayside was recently recognized as Tampa Bay’s Best Beach Restaurant, Best Beach Bar, and Best Beer Selection. I highly recommend.

Tip: drive to the right when you hit the security booth. You can let them know you're going to Big Bamboo.
Chill spot in the resort pool area to catch the sunset. Not crowded. Donya, the bartender, was helpful, friendly, and efficient. Gator bites and jerk fish tacos were ok. Wish there was more pico de gallo for the chips.

I stayed at the resort here. Staff was very friendly, food was fast, fresh and reasonably priced. Nice selection of adult beverages. They even jazzed up by 2 year olds apple juice by adding cherries and an umbrella

This bar is a hidden oasis in the Rocky Point area. Live music, good bar food, great bartenders and a swimming pool!

This is an incredible little on-property tiki bar and grill for Sailport. We stayed for 3 days and we had planned to uber out for food throughout our stay until we arrived and realized there was food within walking distance from our room. We had some drinks and chatted with the bartender Shelley, who was an absolute gem. We ended up not leaving the hotel once for anything other than the event we flew into town for because their food is honestly incredible for a little bayside hotel bar and grill. Their fish tacos are to die for and you MUST order a Miami vice with a floater on a hot day

Shelly gave terrible customer service and was an irresponsible bartender, serving my loved one until falling down.
We were staying at Sailport Waterfront Suites and found the Big Bamboo Bayside when we went down to use the pool. It is a nice poolside bar and restaurant. The staff were very friendly and the prices were very reasonable. It was nice to not even have to leave the resort for food and drinks. They were open early for breakfast and stayed open late for drinks. They also had TVs which was great for watching football and enjoying the pool. It was also a great spot to catch a beautiful sunset.

I came here with my brother and sister and law and Shelly straight up. Did her BIG ONE!! The greatest service I’ve had in YEARS at a bar like she was Real with it and We couldn’t appreciate more then we did SHE WAS AWESOME. GREAT service 1-10 Shelly surpasses expectations so she’s ranks 120000000000x Infiniti. Ya do the math
