This town is full of predicable, dull restaurants. This is virtually the only place in St. Petersburg that wouldn't get laughed out of New York or San Francisco. Try it and find out why the major local food reviewers selected it as "Best New Restaurant" and why the James Beard foundation nominated the chef for "Best Chef in the South." more

Frying up a fish fillet and putting it on a mushroom polenta doesn't mean this is great food or artisry. This is the most phoney concotion of a menu I've ever seen. The prices for poorly thought through food and a drink menu designed to "fool" the customer into thinking they are paying for what they have ordered, but find... more

Z Grille is one of my two favorite places in the Tampa Bay area, and the only place I'll go for a serious steak. Zack's ribeye is better than any cut I get anywhere else in the area other than my back yard. The oysters are outstanding, as are the deviled eggs, and Jenny's got a good little wine list... more

Went here with a group of friends as we've been dying to try it since it opened. Started with a house cocktail, something fancy, I forget the name of it, $10. Then had the red pepper soup, which was very good $7.99 bowl. I had the pork filet served over corn w/jalapenos and such, $20. Other half had the fish... more

Just returned from a weekend get-away trip to Downtown St. Petersburg. After traveling there on business back in July, I decided to bring my wife for a few days to enjoy Cafe Alma (see my review from July, 2008) and further explore the area. Whilst doing just that, we happened upon Z Grille.. popped our head in, checked out the... more

I love this restaurant. The food is excellent and it is a great place to sit outside on the Central Ave. sidewalk and people-watch. Zack, the owner, is creative and skilled in the kitchen and takes great pride in his creations. Give anything on the menu a try and you will not be disappointed... more

Neat little bar and grill with SoCal Mexican taste. Try the Mexican Pancakes (BBQ Pork and Smoked Gouda!). Very diverse menu so price ranges a bit ($10-$30). Servers do a good job. more
