Visited w/ reservations on Valentine's day for the first time. Table was available on time. They had a special menu for the day as well as the standard fare. The crab cakes were average size, maybe 5 oz (guess) and little mayo and filler. A better than average cake. Scallops were PERFECT. Vegetables and salads were all super fresh and great. Our server was awesome. He knew the menu and was attentive but not overbearing. Refills w/o having to ask, empty plates didn't linger. Prices were fair. Soup, salad, seafood main dishes, non-alcoholic drinks, and desert for two was ~ $130. Situated on the water, this will be a great spot during the warmer months and we will definitely be going back.

Crab cakes were as advertised, amazing. Mashed potatoes were great and the asparagus was perfectly cooked. Wings had good flavor but were a little overcooked. Low key cozy environment and the service was top shelf. They treated this ol Florida boy like I was a regular. I hope I make it back this way sometime to make a return visit. 10/10 recommend.

We loved our pizza and roasted brussels sprouts. The bartender fixed my Mai Tais perfectly! Just a bit too noisy in the bar area, particularly when there's live music.

Good local restaurant. The food was average, nothing to write home about but, our waiter, Pablo, was excellent. Always there at the right time without hovering. He was awesome. I'd go back just to have him as a waiter again. Pablo made it fun for us all.

The food was great. We dined early to beat the rush. But didn't know were timed in our experience. The waitress was rude in telling us we needed to get up for another reservation. When the dining area was not full. And an 8 top next to us was just seated with 2 people. Then said we couldn't move to the bar area either because it was booked and busy. Which it was not. Unfortunate. We have enjoyed Bridges in the past with no issue and have given many compliments to our friends that co-own this establishment. Maybe it was inexperience of the waitstaff.

Overall the experience with my wife daughter and granddaughter was lovely. I had the ribs which were dry and extremely fatty. The chef put a dried out piece on top of the two ribs that should not have been served. There was not enough sauce on top of the piece that was stuck on top which as I mentioned was dried out. Also don't put the ribs on top of the slaw. The fat from the ribs mixed in it and was not a good thing to do. I apologize for this review but you should know. It's an easy fix. If you're going to put two ribs on the plate, make them lean and of good quality. Not worth the price or any price actually. The meals my family had were really much better. Your crab cakes are signature level. Again, sorry but not hard to correct. We'll be back to try other dishes which I'm sure will be very good.
Do not believe the reviews it is NOT good! If you’re staying in one of the hotels across the street avoid this restaurant. Even the staff at the hotels know it’s bad!!

We go to Bridges often and it is reliably good. This week we went for lunch and I had the harvest ravioli. It was perhaps the best thing I've ever had! A perfect combination of all the flavors. Here is the menu description: Butternut Squash Ravioli / Sage Roasted Apple Pumpkin Cream Sauce / Roasted Pumpkin Seeds Goat Cheese / Cherry Fresno Agrodolce
If you get a chance to go to Bridges, get this lite fare dish. Many items on the menu are great - the bruschetta is always delicious as are the scallops. But this is a meal you should RUN, not walk to get.

Very disappointed that they no longer have their Chicken Chesapeake dinner that was so delicious but their crab cakes and cream of crab soup are still amazing.

I like the crab cake, it’s served on a bed of mashed potatoes with asparagus. It’s tasty and consistently good eating. They have a full bar with signature cocktails and a nice wine selection that overlooks the Narrows and the bridges, hence the name. 😜 It’s a great place for a nice meal or just a quick lunch. Staff is abundant and friendly.
