Restaurants in Tarpon Springs

“My wife and I sat at the outdoor bar this past Friday night for dinner. Bobby the bartender is simply one of the most engaging and friendliest people we’ve ever met in the service industry. We were on vacation and this was the standout meal of our trip. I had the blackened grouper over rice with shrimp and scallops, and it was perfectly prepared. My wife loved her grouper with fingerling potatoes and green beans with a lump crab sauce that was delicious. Visiting Rusty Bellies was among the highlights of our getaway. Thank you, Bobby!!! P.S. the complimentary hush puppies were excellent!”

“This place is absolutely delicious. First of all it’s adorable inside. it was very busy and we sat at the bar. The wait staff was incredibly friendly and kind.We ordered an appetiser of coconut shrimp which was crispy and super hot and fresh and delicious. Then we each ordered two rolls which came to us on these giant dragons. We were not expecting that and the presentation was absolutely amazing.I loved watching everyone else’s plates come out of the sushi bar area because the presentation on each and every plate no matter what was ordered was absolutely impeccable. It was like an absolute work of art.I will definitely be coming back here because of the friendliness the service and the overall atmosphere 10 out of 10!!”

“Best wait service friendly and food is phenomenal!”

“Friendly staff, great environment, fun group activity! Often has live music or DJ!”

“If you have not been to Wine Society in Tarpon Springs you are missing out. We have been a few times and the food and wine are amazing! It was so nice to meet the owner tonight. I recommend doing a wine flight and trying the fig and prosciutto crostini and the truffle and mushroom flatbread. My favorite date night!”

“Incredible sangria, amazing atmosphere and a wonderful community! Can’t wait to come back!”

“great food! great atmosphere! a favorite in tarpon!”

“I can’t tell you how much we enjoyed dining at The Bistro. We liked it so much, we ate there the next night as well. The food was excellent, the service was warm and friendly and the atmosphere was just fun! Loved everything about it.Parking: Plenty of spots both visits.”

“If you're from the St. Louis area, you're already familiar with Imo's pizza. St. Louis Transplants in Florida are craving tastes of home. Well, you've found it! Jake's Pizza gives us the "Imo's" pizza, St. Louis toasted ravioli and St. Louis gooey butter cake! It just doesn't get any better than than! Order online, get delivery to your door. And, the best part, it all has the tastes of St. Louis. I highly recommend!!”

“the food and the atmosphere. stationed in Nea Makri for almost 6 years and this place reminded of the tavernas in Rafina Marathon Kifissia. It was like being back and the food is brought the memories eve more”

“Fun time! Awesome people on both sides of the bar!”

“Talked with owners in length. Took me inside where he had shown a container holding 300lb of 36/38 shrimp. Can you think monster shrimp boil. Friendly folks.”

“I was very pleased with the service and of course the delicious ice cream. My team from Freedom Expansion Home Care Services and our clients loved it. Thank you Dockside Creamery for the awesome experience!”

“We came for lunch today and got seated outside in a tiki hut with bench seats and breeze was amazing!! Our server was Corey and he was funny gave us time to make choices with no rush. He also made some suggestions because everything looked good and we needed input..lol. He took good care of us! Our tiki hut by the way was situated right by the water. There's docks you can walk down see some little turtles occasionally. I was drinking water.. really wanted the red sangria my cousin got because she said it was very light and refreshing. Apps we ordered calamari and alligator bites.. the alligator came in a beer batter that was very light. The calamari was very good as well.. for my meal I ordered coconut shrimp plate.. came with pineapple marmalade sauce that I absolutely loved! Along with fries! Very good meal beautiful day.. great company and great servers! The staff going out even said thank you for coming .. I bet would be amazing at night with adult beverages at the outside bar!! Really cool nautical beachy theme! Really liked this spot”

“I absolutely love rockstar cafe! Their chicken quesadilla and sub sandwich’s are top tier!”

“Very nice atmosphere drinks very good little pricey though”

“great food! great atmosphere! a favorite in tarpon!”

“Excellent Mexican food!!!”

“Amazing food and lots of it!!! Prices are reasonable. Enjoyed it so much we ate there twice. Highly recommend!”

“staff is friendly and provides great service! Food is fantastic!”

“Service was very good. Interesting menu. We tried everything from Oyster Rockefeller, the snow crab, clam chowder and lobster ravioli. Also St Patrick's Day was the Greek Independence Day celebration. The parade lasted close to 45 minutes in front of the restaurant.”

“The server was great and the overall atmosphere was pleasant. The food was mediocre, at best. My friend ordered the ribeye that came out extremely fatty and heavily grissled. I ordered country fried steak and was given country fried chicken. Overall, the experience left a bit to be desired. Not so bad that I wouldn't go back, but definitely not good enough to raise it to the top of the list when deciding to go to a steakhouse.”

“want to give a HUGE shoutout to Orange Cycle Creamery who decorated beyond amazing, pink trees everywhere, and they even made a dairy free version of holiday peppermint ice cream just so we could enjoy the season too! They were so generous and the owner is a wonderful lady! Please support them and don’t forget to pick up an angel to afoot a child for Christmas!”

“Dearest Owners and Mgmt , Our thanks for a fabulous dinner on March 12th. My husband and I live locally and bring everyone that comes to visit. We had a wonderful dinner Dimitri was our server and very attentive and happy. He deserves kudos!!!! Thank you very much for a delicious dinner. We’ll be back soon. Thank you again Dimitri !!”

“Great food and service. Stopped by Saturday night with a large group of Honda Element enthusiasts. My burger was served hot and fresh. My wife ordered the Club sandwich and it was delish. The pricing was more than fair and the waitress was very attentive. Thanks for a great experience.”

“The service here is absolutely incredible, Lorenzo works hard and has incredible memory! Our first visit was just amazing and our second he not only remembered us but, he also remembered my sisters allergy! The food is easily the best in the county and if I could give more then 5 stars I would! If you haven't been here you are missing out and should visit!”

“we love this place! best drip coffee ever. love the souffles for breakfast with perfect coffee.”

“Everything was amazing! From the food to the service. And not to mention, the best stuffed mushrooms I’ve ever had! Cannot wait to go back!!”

“Great bar to stop in the area- excellent beer selection- we had several really good local beers. The bartender was super friendly and helpful and there were several regular patrons at the bar that were also very friendly. Highly recommend this place. Very cool vibes”

“Beautiful garden area. My son and I stopped in on a whim and split a burger . We will definitely be back. Delicious beer too! On a side note my son has special needs. He is usually ignored by wait staff but not here. Everyone was genuinely friendly, the owner addressed my son specifically and said “goodbye sir” .”

“Stopped by on the Fly. Shared an amazing meal!! The owners are terrific, the atmosphere fantastic a great place to kick it. Great Folks, great music, great time had by all!! I recommend the Chicken salad on a crossiant. Hands down best in Tarpon. I also recommend the chicken milanese also best in Tarpon. We will definitely be back!!”

“Great food by even better people! If you’re looking for delicious and authentic Greek food go to Katerina’s.”

“I ordered 4 dozen cupcakes for a surprise birthday party this weekend. They were perfect! I gotta say, the Boston Cream Pie cupcakes FLEW off the cupcake stand. We've never had a bad experience and will continue to use them for any events in the future.”

“Oh my what an amazing place to grab some baked heaven.”

“thank you for such great service and great food today! we had 12 people and everybody was prefect! Pancakes biscuits and gravy omelettes you name it!”

“We have been to this cute little CLEAN restaurant a few times .dine in and take out...everything has been great .my favorite were the quesidias and we always get the bread pudding ! So glad it's right around the corner .... THANKS CHRIS .Food was great again today !”

“Such tasty treats we'd devoured them before we could even take a photo. We got some bread to take home and enjoyed the baklava and other sweets. Everything looked good, it was tough to choose only a few.”

“Great brews and fine peeps!”

“Always quality food great recipes, friendly people”

“The cappuccino crush was amazing and the young lady working was so patient and helpful creating the beverage just the way I wanted ❤️”

“Try the new coffee. ITS SOOOO GOOD! Great atmosphere for relax lunch work break. Awesome open face tuna kick sandwich, thanks ladies, I love it here!”

“Had a great time! Unexpected little local indoor/outdoor date vibe!! Great management!”

“Probably the greatest place I've ever been in my life! BUT, it's not for everyone! Place could probably fall in the river with a big gust of wind! That being said, it was amazing! The locals were all super cool! The bartender was an absolute sweetheart and live music was above average! They let us fish from the dock out back and even provided a net! I didn't eat there but I hear they have free hot dogs on Mondays! The toilet I used was nicely shaded but I was told that women should go before they get there!5 stars for the greatest dive in the state for sure, maybe the world!”

“Excellent food. Cozy, neighborhood atmosphere. I highly recommend.”

“Was there for the first time 4/26 with 3 other ladies celebrating my birthday. We all ordered something different and were amazed at the portions. Food was excellent, our server Margarita, was wonderful. We definately will be back.”

“Excellent Food and Service”

“This is a gem of a place !!! I had the Cuban sandwich was to die for authentic real Cuban sandwich followed with a Cuban coffee decided I still needed something a little bit sweet. The owner made me a delicious, fresh fruit, mango, and strawberry smoothie made with real fruit. This place is the real deal not to mention their hand rolled cigars are amazing.”

“BestGyro! Great service! Good price!”

“Love this place, the beer, the people and setting are great and the music is on a solid strong vibe.”

“Excellent NY style pizza made by Patriot. I went right when they opened and the pizza was so good, ask for extra crispy, that I went back two more times in the month. I recommend the pizza and garlic knots with a shot of espresso for dessert. Plenty of parking but it can get busy. I'm sure the other food options are just as good.”

“This place is amazing. They have the best soups, salads and sandwiches. Always fresh and beyond filling. Highly recommend Yankee Bean. Definitely worth going and you will be hooked.”

“Love any restaurant with an ocean view, so that's a plus lol. Food was good, and my sandwich. but the roast beef was a little chewey. Maybe sliced a little thinner. The fries and Tuna were great”

“Amazing boba! Probably the best I have ever tasted. The people are amazing that work there.”

“The Tarpon Tavern...a place with no real identity, and maybe it doesn't need one. Mediterranean food-Check American food-Check Mexican food-Check Seafood-Check Pub food-Check For my appetizer, I ordered the basket of Greek twister fries, which were dressed olive oil, garlic, feta cheese, and Greek oregano. The menu says fries, but really it's potato wedges, that are light, crispy, and soo soo good! My wife got the pretzel bite, which again were delectable to eat. We will 100% be ordering these again on my next visit! For my main course, I ordered the Pub Burger, with house made kettle chips. The burger was cooked to my preference (med rare), and was spot on. I ate this burger without ketchup, as it was plenty moist from the meat, cheese, and vegetables. If you're hungry and nothing else looks good, order this. You won't be disappointed in this Pub staple. The chips were light and crispy, and bland, almost like an afterthought. A dash of salt perked these right up, and were a joy to eat. The atmosphere is louder than I would prefer, personally, but I was able to clearly hear everyone at my table. The service was great, in my opinion. They were helpful and friendly. We are looking forward to our next visit!”

“My wife and I came from Plant city to see Cover your tracks band. The food was really good. I’m picky and liked the appetizers and Boneless wings. Service was good and friendly.”

“Cheap to drink and a relaxed atmosphere. Might just have to become a regular.”

“Awesome food. Awesome service. Great place to go. Very clean.”

“If you're ever in Tarpon Springs, Mr Souvlaki needs to be the first place you visit if you're a hungry kind of type. Start and finish with the Greek Chow Mein. Also, of you're of Kalymnian descent like me, don't rock the "Kalymnos" hat your Uncle gave you because everyone in the Sponge Docks assume you know Greek and are your ”

“Brought my pooch and we both enjoyed!! He loved his pup cup and staff was super awesome!!”

“Excellent food, friendly, and huge portions. Love this place!!”

“Excellent Sushi, friendly people, conveniently located. Highly recommend.”

“Only thing missing is a simulator room! The foods always delicious and variety of options. Friendly service from folks who seem to actually care about their customers.”

“I preordered an order for curbside pickup. I texted back to cancel my order due to not taking my baby out in the bad weather. I received a text back asking for my address and they would deliver my order. I thought that was unbelievably nice, and when this awesome lady came to my door, she refused to take my credit card. She simply said she didn't want me to be stuck without dinner. This is the nicest thing someone has done for me in a long time and so greatly appreciated!!!”

“Smell of the delicious spices greets you before the door. We had beef patty, jerk sandwich arriving with three slider buns and loose meat on a platter with side of cabbage with carrot and pepper and the goat curry entree with the cabbage side, rice and beans. The meat is fork tender, the veg perfectly cooked and still crisp, flavorful heat of spice but not overpowering. Beer and wine available also ginger beer and other soft drinks. Superb. Casual Caribbean seating. Attentive friendly servers. Two thumbs up.”

“Great find! What a nice surprise to find Columbian and Mexican food as well as American breakfast food on the menu. Friendly proprietor. We sat outside on the patio with our dog.”

“If your looking for a sweet treat look no further than Hellas Bakery. If you cant find something there to satisfy the sweet tooth then keep on walking. This Greek bakery has everything you can imagine and then some, from the most delicious looking Pasta ( Greek word for cake), cookies, pastries and ice cream. As soon as you walk into the bakery enter the line to order even if you are wanting ice cream you must use the line with the red ropes. Once in line you can see the case of pastries and decide what to oder once you are the front of the line. One of the employees will take your order and you can pay them with the little electric machine or pay at the register. I recommend paying at the register as I paid with the machine and my order was lost and was over 15 minutes and me asking where my order was for it to be filled. Ordered the Strawberry Kok and Oreo Pasta. The Strawberry Kok was not very sweet and without the Strawberry glaze didn't have much Strawberry flavoring and would not order this dessert again. The Oreo Pasta (Cake) did taste like Oreo's but again not very sweet which was kind of nice. Huge selection of items from Greek Sweet Bread, eclairs and some type of cookie that kind of looks like poop!! I say be bold and order it!”

“Best breakfast in Tarpon Springs”

“Food and service were both amazing! Opaaaa!”

“good food at a good price. polite and professional staff”

“wow isn’t even the word. first of all, cleanest ihop i’ve ever seen, also, service was amazing, and don’t get me started on this poblano omelette… i wasn’t too hungry so i didn’t get a side. very happy i didn’t!! everything was perfect :)”

“Danielle made some beautiful treats for my son's birthday! She was very easy to work with, quick response time. I only provided her with the colors and theme, and she truly exceeded my expectations! The treats were super popular with my guests and recieved plenty of compliments. They tasted great too! I highly recommend ordering from Danielle!”

“i have to say this Jersey Mikes in Tarpon is really good. i am from Philadelphia land of the Cheesesteak's. i dont know what it is in this Area, Nobody can make pizza or cheesesteaks here! Thank Goodness i found Jersey mikes here. it even smells like a Philly Deli when you walk in. A++++ Highly recommend Jersey Mike in Tarpon.”

“I was greeted warmly immediately upon entering, clean establishment and wonderful service!! I actually enjoy the menu and smoothie taste better than Smoothie King!! A+++”

“I ordered two extra large pizzas online and they were delicious!! I will definitely order again.”

“very concise and polite staff, convenient location with a lovely atmosphere inside and the food is always tip-top, with a good amount of options for vegetarians. Also Bubble Teas are so delicious! Been here many times and will be there many, many more.”

“Great food, great service!”

“I went for Eddiepalooza and had an amazing time. great crowd, friendly staff, great music, and all around fun time. Definitely recommended.”

“I eat subway a LOT. Just ordered a gurney wrap through Uber and I have to say / This was one of the best wraps I’ve had in a long time! Too many locations give a half order of cold cuts on the wrap and it’s makes it all wrap!I will never order from the other location again!”

“The girl making sandwiches there today should not be working behind the counter, she should be training everybody in every other subway!My love for Subway started in 2007 and since then I can easily say I’ve eaten it thousands of times. For over a year I did the subway diet and it helped me lose over 100 pounds. So I know what I’m talking about when it comes to subways and a lot of the locations lately give subpar food especially when it comes to the wraps!! This location is by far the absolute best, and the only time I’ve ever seen the actual food look better than the commercial. I even gave the same location a review a month or two ago on Uber Eats for the same reason. Not knowing it was the same location I walked in on my way to Home Depot, and from how clean it was and how I was greeted, something told me it was the one from Uber eats, and sure enough it wasThis location is by far the best in this area and even that is an understatement.”

“amazing food! fun atmosphere”

“Great subs, great people!”

“Awesome food .....great service....this place is the bomb!”

“I visited this restaurant on 3/09/2024 to have dinner with my family. The service was terrible! the server was asked 4 times to bring water and lemon to the table, the server failed to check up on us after serving our food, and towards the end, my brother asked to bring out another order of tacos and the server persuaded him to not order more because they were to busy. due to the poor service provided by the server, we all the decided not to tip. After verifying my credit card account, to my surprise, an adittional 10 dollars were added to my bill. I thought it could be an honest mistake; however, after speaking to my sister, she informed me that 10 dollars were also added to her card. FOOD NO SO GREAT, BAD SERVICE, AND STEALING FROM CUSTOMERS.”

“First time trying this place. Got the bourbon chicken combo and vegetable lo mein, everything was great! Even the egg roll that came with the combo was really flavorful, I was super pleased.”

“Absolutely fabulous! Take out from bj's every week, never disappoints.”

“I recently stopped by Taste of Greece for some afternoon indulgence. I tried the pistachio baklava, fruit tart, and Greek coffee. While the pistachio baklava was just okay and not something I would order again, the fruit tart was a delightful surprise. It was light, flavorful, and perfectly sweetened. I highly recommend the fruit tart. The Greek coffee was also quite delicious and definitely worth trying. Overall, I had a great experience and would consider visiting again in the future.”

“New in town wanted middle Eastern food ...found Madeline's in tarpan springs, fl the food was awesome..!cute place to dine and clean....Thank you Madeline”

“Not gonna lie, it's actually good! Service wise, everyone is amazing; the people are friendly and they take good care of you. Given it's a small town pizza joint in Tarpon, that's no shocker at all. It's also a bar connected to the Twisted Orange so it definitely has that old school-new school fusion with a touch of smalltown charm in terms of environment. Food Wise? It's decent and it's got some flavor. I must admit the crust is lacking a bit in terms of flavor (yes, even the crust matters), but the Pizza itself is still tasty. Granted, certain combos just don't land, but most of them are fantastic. Appetizer wise, it's average; replacing the pickle chips with pickle "fries" was kind of silly, and in general the appetizers are hit and miss. Overall? Not a bad spot to go to! Not perfect, but it's not average either.”

“Four of us opted for dinner. Two of us had the lasagna...we both thought it was awesome. Another loved the eggplant Parmesan which lived, and the 4th opted for veal Marsala...she also loved hers. We all gave it 5 stars. Food was delicious.”

“Our server was amazing. I can’t remember her name but she was pregnant and working her tail off. Thank you ♥️”

“The food is always great! Last Tuesday had the veal parmigiana and it was tender and delicious. Had the pizza the week before and love their sauce and crust. Melissa, Dawn and Giovanna are all excellent servers and treat people like they are family. Reminds me so much of the local places I loved in North Jersey!! I think this week it will be a calzone!”
