While on vacation in Clearwater my sister made reservations Sunday night at the Columbia restaurant. Our waiter was great and the table was ready when we arrived. It was a table of 7. We had a table with a wonderful view of the water. My boyfriend proposed to me at your restaurant and its a night I will never forget.... more

After dining at this restaurant recently I feel we must complement them on such a wonderful operation. The view is awesome from the top level of the St. Petersburg Pier, but the food and service were simply wonderful. This is a must if you are going to be in the St. Petersburg area. I believe this restaurant is by far... more

We are veeeeery disappointed!!!. The pier is a great place to visit, but the Columbia restaurant is a SHAME. The place looks charming and you would expect an outstanding food and service, but I wouldn’t go again even if they offer the food for free.We could not eat our food. We asked for: Filet Mignon ( was burnt in one... more

The website states reservations optional and since we are not from the area, we decided to... more

The fried calamari was very good, however, I was dissappointed with a couple of their entree dishes. The paella capesina was somewhat flavorless and full of too many chopped onions. The red snapper alicante was bland,... more

Food was great., nice view of the ocean.. price is not too bad for an upscale resturant. (entrees vary between 20 ~ 30 , decent sized tapas are ~ 6- 10 ). service was good overall. I tried the location in the Pier and i would recommend it for a nice dinner especially if you have guests from out of... more

When you live in Florida, it’s always fun to eat on the water. The Columbia at the Pier in St. Petersburg is a great choice both for waterfront views and great food. There isn’t a bad table here, all the windows are floor to ceiling, offering great views of the water. Even at night you can enjoy the view of... more
