So excited to be at the beach for a week. Checked Tripadvisor and found the top 5 restaurants we wanted to visit. Snappers was our first choice and it was truly amazing. All of it! The curb appeal, the mood, the decor, the vibe was right on! Dara was our server and she was fabulous, friendly but not too much.... More

When you drive by and see the shiny aluminum exterior of a 60's style diner, don't be fooled by the exterior, as appearances can be and are deceiving. This is a very nice restaurant that serves high quality, fresh made food with a lot of variety and some unique signature dishes (and it has a kid's menu, too). My wife... More

We had seen this restaurant featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. The food was different than any other type I've tasted. Very unsure as to what to order so took the advice of another diner...smoked mullet( I have NO idea what a mullet is). We ordered the lunch portion that includes only the fish, lettuce, tomato, and onion, and crackers.... More

Great little Restuarant many years ago we visited here and it was a little diner. When we went looking for it we found it had changed into an evening dinner spot. The fillet mignon was excellent and my husband scallops and shrimp was also excellent the dessert of apple cake and ice cream was split between us and we had... More

Just decided to stay close to the hotel and found a real gem. The grouper over garlic risotto was really outstanding. A great value with a yummy salad, bread, and great service. As a certified foodie- this was the best food I have eaten in Florida.

Being the sister location of a well reputed St Pete Beach restaurant we thought we would give it a try. Well that was a big mistake, the website is totally screwed up regarding opening hours and other aspects of the facility. We picked this location for an anniversary dinner and were hugely disappointed, the food war terrible, prime rib that... More

My wife and I were on our way to a Rays game at the Trop and decided to stop off for a quick bite before the game. Since it was around 5pm they had an early bird menu. We decided to give it a try and everything was very good. My wife had Shrimp pasta and I had the prime... More

Highly recommend Mad Fish. We initially went out of convenience because it was across from our hotel. We ended up going there 2 out of the 4 nights. Food and service were excellent!

If I was only reviewing the food, I would give this place a 4...and if I was only review the service and atmosphere I would give them a 3. So here is why I settled on a 3 (or 3.5 if I could)... When you first walk into Mad Fish you get the sense of an old diner. Dimmed lighting,... More

I'm sure that the owners of this restaurant will disagree with my review, and it will probably not affect their business at all, but this is my personal experience at their restaurant. My wife chose this restaurant for her birthday dinner after reviewing reviews and menus. When we walked up to the restaurant, the "diner" appearance was very cool. We... More
