“Recommended on a FB Anna Maria Island Life page….. they were sooo right! Walking in you can clearly see they truly have bait and clean fish there. Very casual and super quaint. The Grouper sandwich came highly recommended. We’ve been eating them all week at different restaurants and every year we come down on different parts of the Gulf. This one ranks at the top! Our waitress explained “he” catches, cleans, fillets and hand breads each fillet. There is a different type of breading for each type of fish according to the type. Gotta try if you want fresh grouper done right!“

“Always stopped by every time I come in town to see my parents . Nice groups of people, great service, great food and drinks menu selections, and nice outdoor seatings. Highly recommended booking a reservation for a group of 2 or more. They also make the best chocolate martini in town!“

“We've spent 7 days now between Tampa, St. Pete, and Anna Marie Island. This by far was the best restaurant we ate at. Our waiter was prompt and very professional. The lobster bites are absolutely amazing. We had a slight issue with how one of the steaks were cooked but a managed handled it right away. All of our food and drinks were great. Prices were all very reasonable. The wait time to be seated was well worth the wait. We plan to make another trip to Florida and hope to make it here again. Fantastic customer service.“

“It was fine.For a restaurant on an island near the sea, I would expect more variety in seafood dishes. The taste of the protein was good, I would expect an improvement in the presentation of the companions, the phenomenal service, the person in charge of the bar is great. It is a cozy place. The place has a lot of potential.The baguette [bread] is delicious. ?“

“I wanted to be able to give a higher rating as the food, the location and overall vibe here is amazing. An art deco culinary experience in one of the most serene settings in Florida. However, the service staff, in particular our server was beyond terrible. A foul attitude and no professional server skills whatsoever. From the fact that she never asked my wife and I if we wanted another drink, to not giving us a kids menu even though we came with our 18 month old.The restaurant has a beautiful waterfront walkway and so my wife and I went to take pictures. Instead of understanding that this is common for guests to do, our server thought we were leaving entirely and chased us down. Why don’t toy worry if we have enough to drink or are ordering dessert instead of thinking we were just leaving.To the management, you need to address a cancer to your business with servers like this. Just terrible and if we’re do go back I worked refuse to be served by this amateur with a terrible attitude and no ability to understand what professional hospitality means.“

“Very very very good sandwiches! We had a Korean BBQ beef sandwich, a beef brisket burger and what felt like half a ton of sensational fries. Drinks are “refill”. The staff was very friendly and we received our food quickly. The places outside are also quite nice.“

“Well this is our first time here but our captains been here several times since highly recommended. Arriving around 10 o'clock results in about a half hour wait that's a guesstimate there's six on the waitlist right now. But it moves quickly. My better half Peggy is browsing the menu Likes all the options if you can't find something then you need to go someplace else they have something for everybody. Menu has a variety of options. Will be back.“

“We love the peanut butter pie. Our favourite. Be good to offer one with oreo crust. Next best is the orange cake. It is awesome! The chocolate is also awesome and so is the strawberry. However the lemon is flavourless. Customer service could improve...the young girl serving us was always in a hurry, and one time refused to accommodate us with orange cake slices even though there were orange cakes in the fridge that could have been sliced up. It was 2 in the afternoon, so still a lot of time to sell more orange cake slices the rest of the day. A big however.....coffee is Kureg but u r charged barista pricing!!! Signifying this would b upfront as I find it deceiving and a rip off.“

“We had a great experience here at AMO! The hostess, Isabella, was welcoming and helpful from the start. Our server, Carlos, was top notch and made everyone's day with his humor and positivity. The food came out hot and fresh and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals! We had the tropical chicken bowl, the true north fish sandwich, fish tacos and a burger - it was all delicious. It was a great atmosphere with beautiful views of the water! Would highly reccomend.“

“In plaza in downtown Palmetto next to Walmart. It is noisy but it is a sportsbar. Has games, darts, and pool. My husband and I usually sit at the bar and no matter how busy they get our service has always been superb! Food is delicious, and great selection of beer. Definitely do the garlic cheese curds! I like the burgers and Jaxx chicken sandwich as well. Reasonably priced for quality of food. I would prefer a leaf of lettuce rather than shredded but that is just my personal preference.Parking: depending on time of day or night parking can be a challenge but for the most part we always get a spot.Kid-friendliness: a few games for kids and it is loud so no worries bringing the kiddos“

“Must have been an off night. We heard the bacon wrapped scallops were good and fresh. We ordered them and unfortunately they were small and dry. Everyone else at the table tried different burgers. They were good and the portions were very generous.“

“Beautiful decor and ambiance embrace you at Sage restaurant. I was eyeing this place for months. Would it stand up to my expectations?Started out the evening on the rooftop bar with a fireplace. The bar was casual, mostly covered, and nice.Surrounded by family, lifelong friends, and new acquaintances, we celebrated my 50th birthday!When we walked into the restaurant, the "air" filled with beautiful music from a solo violinist. He played soulful modern tunes, which encapsulated the memories.The Thai Bouillabaisse and Porter house steak were a MUST! The porter house steak was HUGE. More than enough to feed two. My only wish was a side of risotto, less butter, and more vegetables. Otherwise, the steak was cooked to pure perfection.Honorable mentions were Seared Halibet with Wasabi Plumb Sauce and Yakisiba Noodles with grilled chicken.Thank you to the Sage restaurant for cooking up a wonderful 50th birthday ?“

“Great mom and pop restaurant. Amazing home cooking and a quaint little place. If the weather is nice, you can sit out back on the patio and watch the kayakers fall in the basin. Do not leave without getting a cup of the soup of the day. Zesty cauliflower, beer cheese, and loaded baked potato are some of my favorites. This is where the locals eat.“

“Excellent dinner last night at Mar Vista. Sitting under the trees by the bay can’t be beat. You must try the gourmet tator tots to start. We had shrimp and grits and their fresh catch risotto. The seafood was cooked perfectly with great flavors on both. Our server, Hannah, was great!“

“I’ve been a long time fan of First Watch. I “discovered” my very first one back in 2017 in one of my trips to Orlando. Since then, First Watch has become a must do for breakfast everywhere we go! The Sarasota one is to me one of the top! Amazing service, very friendly and always happy to help. The food super fresh and delicious. If you happen to be in downtown Sarasota, I guarantee you’ll have an amazing time here.“

“The waitress' were very helpful & accomodating for our large group with 5 kids. The food was reasonably priced & good-sized portions! The seating was a little cramped, but we knew going in that it was going to be a tight fit since the place was described as a "nook" in the description I read beforehand. Also, it seems like most places on the island are kind of tight fits anyways!“

“This is THE SPOT. Wow! Their famous Chicken and biscuit was so delicious, juicy and flavorful. Home fries….yes! Kids had Mickey Mouse pancakes and yes, I snuck a few bites. Also one of the few places with a good coffee menu…thank goodness! Espresso Freddo (cold) hit the spot on a hot day. Service was 100%.“

“I like the sandwiches and hot meals they have but the aged steaks are far better quality than anything you will find at Publix.I’m not sure where the beef comes from but it’s next level. The sausages they offer are really good. (Italian brats hotdogs.) all very good. Great place. Scott I think is the owner and is a really kind gentleman.“

“My favorite bar is Sarasota/Bradenton. The food reminds me of back home in Pennsylvania. The people remind me of a combination of the best people from the Eagles, Moose, and Elks combined with a family reunion of my favorite family members. I love this place.“

“A Pleasurable Dining Experience at R.J. Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL Rating: 4 out of 5 stars We just went to visit to R.J. Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL and it was an overall pleasurable dining experience. From the moment we stepped in, I was captivated by the restaurant’s neat and inviting atmosphere, accompanied by an awesome menu that delighted my taste buds. R.J.’s has done an exceptional job in creating a welcoming environment. The restaurant was clean, and the tastefully neat decor contributed to a cozy and comfortable ambiance. I found myself instantly relaxed and ready to enjoy a fantastic meal. Speaking of the menu, R.J.’s certainly knows how to impress. The array of options available was remarkable, showcasing a diverse range of culinary delights. I was delighted to find both familiar favorites and unique dishes that piqued my curiosity. Each bite I took was a testament to the chef’s skill and dedication, as the food was undeniably yummy. In addition to the delectable flavors, Gator’s also excelled in providing reasonable prices and generous portions. I felt that the value for money was excellent, and the portion sizes were more than satisfactory. It was evident that R. J.’s takes pride in ensuring their customers are satisfied both in terms of taste and quantity. While my experience was largely positive, I did encounter a minor setback with the service. The waitress seemed slightly inattentive during my visit, which occasionally required me to seek her attention multiple times. However, this did not overshadow the overall excellence of the restaurant. In conclusion, Gator’s Restaurant in Bradenton, FL offers a delightful dining experience. The neat atmosphere, awesome menu, and delicious food combine to create a memorable visit. Despite a minor issue with the service, I wholeheartedly recommend here for anyone seeking a satisfying meal in a cozy setting!!“

Had I not needed to use the facilities (absolutely LOVED that the key was attached to the grandma stockpot SPOON ?), I would have NEVER known it was attached to a whole little mini mall with the cutest stores!!

But it was so kid friendly right on the bay where the kids can look and play in the sand! My kids loved this place as well! Drinks were absolutely spot on. get the Pina colada with the shooter on top you won't be disappointed ?Kid-friendliness: They are on the bay and the kids can play in the sand and watch the water without you being nervous about them falling in and hurting themselves...“

“Went there for New Year's Eve. Everything was exceptional. From the time we arrived around 9, until we closed the place down after midnight. The greeting was friendly. Got a great table. Service by Brodie (sp) was exceptional. She was there when we needed something as if she had a 6th sense. The food was as good as I’ve had in a while. The mussels had the best broth I can remember. The grouper plicata was an unusual and tasty dish. The espresso martini was excellent. The band. Donnie Bostic, was professional, fun and entertaining. We love to dance and they put out a great dance beat. Overall, I cannot recommend this restaurant more highly.“

“A busy Saturday morning, at such a fantastic establishment, you can expect a wait, but it is well worth it. Hands down the best breakfast we've ever had, outside of my own kitchen! The brioche French toast was light and fluffy, the option to get real maple syrup is a perfect pairing. The apple wood smoked bacon is absolutely fantastic. Veggie omelette, was so delicious and full of veggies! The home fried potatoes are seasoned and cooked perfectly. My absolute favorite was the marble rye toast, the most delicious bread I've ever had. And our server Ken was great!“

“Excellent service,good food and great view from the deck.My elderly mother passed out on the way out of the restaurant. The manager and her wait staff were very helpful during this emergency. After the manager called 911 for us, she helped with the 9 month old baby in our party while I helped my mother. She stuck with us until the ambulance arrived. The staff were also clam and helpful with comfort measures like ice and cold cloths. Me and my family were grateful for their assistance in our time of need.Wheelchair accessibility: Two long ramps. Should have brought the wheelchair instead of the walker“

“Have eaten here three times in the past week oddly enough. Good service and atmosphere for sure! Would recommend the prime rib which is served on Fridays and Saturdays only, the fish and chips and the blackened cod. Would not recommend the shrimp florentine pasta, it didn't have a white wine sauce, just had some sprinkled cheese on top that didn't melt and the shrimp was subpar or the burger. But other than that, most things on the menu are good. The ahi tuna nachos, caprese and the Monte cristo apps were yummy!“

“We went in early December on a weeknight, we made a reservation, it turned out. It wasn’t really that busy, about half full perhaps. We were seated immediately at an intimate table near the window in the far room room. Very quaint dining room. Formal. Our waiter was very attentive. We got a bottle of wine. It was a small kitchen out in the dining room, where they would prepare Caesar salad and some flambé dishes. My wife’s cousin recommended this place, the duck was highly recommended, I had it, and it was absolutely delicious. After dinner, we went upstairs to the separate dessert room and got a great presentation on the desserts that they had that night. I had the Keylime pie. It was delicious. A little Baileys on the rocks has a nightcap.“
