Great atmosphere, and beautiful views of the water.
The food was delicious; our table of 4 had an appetizer of sushi, and main entrees of grouper, snapper, pasta, and a steak filet and everyone enjoyed their meal.
Our waitress was good at answering our questions about the sushi, and regular menu items, but the real impressive situation came when we unknowingly overpaid the bill with cash and she came back with it very quickly to correct our mistake.

we have dined several times at Bayfront Bistro, just the two of us or in groups of 8 and the service is always good. Bayfront is a welcome change to the usual beach food serving creative dishes, fresh food and beautifully prepared. it is a place to go for a special romantic evening or for a get together with friends as they have big round tables available which makes it so nice for conversation. The view is lovely both day and night. Since we are seasonal visitors we always look forward to visit back to the beach and the Bayfront Bistro.

Thanks to the reviews on this site, we decided to dine at the Bayfront Bistro and we are glad we did. The restaurant is well designed so it seems that nearly every table has a view of the water and marina. I really like the open dining concept -- which made the entire restaurant open to the open air.

The food was very good. We had the scallops as an appetizer which was tasty and had the lamp chops as one entree and the grouper as the other. Both were met our expectations.

Dessert was a molten chocolate cake with melted chocolate center.

I suspect this will be the first of many trips to the Bayfront Bristro

We ate here last year with my parents, who live in FMB, & my 3 kids who are early teens to early 20s. My Dad is 85, very picky & cranky- & he LOVED it. We all had a nice selection to choose from on the menu & I would love to go there again!

Had lunch there today. Took several minutes to be greeted and then even longer to be seated. Another long wait for server to appear. Lunch finally arrived and even though the entree I had chosen did not require the plate itself to be warmed, the server warned that the plates were very hot, thereby turning the side of cold fruit into a side of very warm fruit. Quality of food was not great. Employee at front desk (assume was the manager) did not even acknowledge us as we were leaving. View is beautiful.
