“The atmosphere is the beach and it's great. The people working were very good at getting the food to the table. The food was classic cafe fare great fried fish, onion rings and fries are favorites, but they also have a wide and varied menu. A great place to eat and enjoy the Gulf.“

“This place claims to be the best burger place on the island. Although I beg to differ what they do have is an awesome atmosphere, great and personable staff, and overall good dive food. It has all the beach feel, it's out in the open and a nice place to chill without spending a fortune. Perfect place for leaving your swimsuit on and grabbing a bite. Wash it all down with a bottle of Not Your Fathers Root Beer and you won't be disappointed!“
“AMI might be the best kept secret in all of FL. Having spent 11 days there over Xmas/NY, we were so happy with every aspect of this little gem. Although it would be difficult to rank our favorites when it comes down to restaurants, beaches, activities, etc., hands down the Anchor Inn was the highlight of our trip. I could rave to you about the ice cold drinks, festive music, pinball and pool tables... But none of those elements even remotely compared to the awesome locals and fabulous bartenders that we quickly became friends with. But this post is regarding the Anchor Inn, so praising the bartenders is my top priority. Brad, single-handedly the most insightful and thought-provoking bartender that I've ever met. And his hair is great, too. The Brothers, both equally charming and pleasant to be around. And last, but not least and never to be forgotten, the tough as nails/sweet like honey Kirsten. You are a true Diamond, little sister. The four of you will be the top reasons that we will definitely be back to AMI in the not so distant future.“

“This place is amazing, I love the coffee so much I been there two days in a row now. Since I'm not from here it was a nice change from the chain coffee shops. Oh and the falafel breakfast sandwich was amazing. I would recommend this to everyone. Also I love supporting small businesses.“

“My family and I visited Bayshore Nutrition for the first time yesterday and were very pleased with the overall service and and experience as a whole. We were greeted upon walking in, she took our orders and made them, quite fast and accurately I might add, and then explained the benefits to each of our drinks, told us how many calories were in the smoothies, which I found really helpful as I am a person that tracks the calories I have each day so I really appreciated that. The smoothies were all REALLY GOOD, HEALTHY & BENEFICIAL. We agreed that we'd definitely be visiting again and soon!“

“We have eaten here every day on our vacation for breakfast. Everything is incredible here. The lavender matcha is the best I've ever had! And the coconut vanilla latte was very good as well and not too sweet! I loved the avocado chicken salad, breakfast sandwiches on bagels, BLTs, and my husband had the diplomat sandwich which was huge! He loved it! And the service is so friendly! Highly recommended coming here!“

“The seafoods are fresh and delicious. The service is great and the view was awesome. They do have a kids menu however was limited to 3 options. Comeearly as it can get really busy at lunch even on weekdays.The parking is limited but it’s nice that they assigned a parking lot person to direct parking movement.Parking: Limited parking but they do have parking lot personnel to organize and assist in parking.“

“The soft serve ice cream is thick, rich and creamy. The serving sizes are are generous and the prices are reasonable. When we want a cold confection it’s the only place we go. I highly recommend a visit to Jeremiah’s, you won’t be disappointed.Parking: Ample parking if you want to walk up and place an order or if you use the drive thru and want to sit in your vehicle and enjoy your treat.“

“My family and I have done the 100 flavor challenge and every single time we’ve been the staff have been so friendly despite there being so many of us. We had so much fun these pasts few months going out together, and Pelican’s is such a great way to spend time together :)“

“Quick, incredibly fresh, dependable, and with a welcoming staff. It was my initial experience trying their pizza, and it impressed me greatly, especially considering I'm quite selective with pizza due to my experience working in a pizzeria. My expectations were high, and they certainly delivered.“

“My hubby and I stopped there on a whim while on our way home from shopping and I was having a craving for something cold and sweet. My husband got a Guava Snowball, which he liked and I had a Vanilla Soft Serve topped with Caramel drizzle and Oreo cookie crumbles. Yum!Stop by and check them out, they also have a little area to sit and enjoy your frozen treat and a couple of little things to keep the kiddos busy.“

“My favorite coffee shop on the island I started my mornings with a short beach walk to the coffee shop, and the service was fast and the coffee was tasty. My favorite part are their straws - pieces of pasta noodles! A sustainable touch that is much appreciated when you're that close to the water.“

“The food is sooo fresh and delicious that it's worth the wait! Every time I go to Bradenton, I insist that I have to eat here. The clam strip are so tender and huge!! I always liked clam strips, but Starfish has spoiled me that I can't eat them anywhere else but here!!“

“Pricy for ice cream but that's normal for AMI. My favorite ice cream on the island! Especially the gelato mixes (mango or tangerine ice and ice cream swirl). But wait time is so long. Tip- order ice cream inside!! Line may be long but you will get it much quicker than outdoor.“

“Kava Social Club is a great place to hangout! Being open 24Hrs providing a safe space to all kinds of people! The owners are so kind and know how to treat there customers and everyone is treated like a friend. The drinks are amazing! The decor is amazing! The ambiance is so relaxed. The events they hold are so fun! They got an amazing place.“
“This is probably one of my favorite out of the way locations relatively close to home. With a large park, beach, with trails and picnic areas there are a lot of choices to do things or jsut to hang out. You used ot have to pay for entrance and parking at a booth when driving in, but now you can pay at machines in the parking lots or use an app. When you drive in the road splits off, to the right iot gfoes to the north beaches and to the left it goes to east beach. I'd rather NOT tell you how nice the beach is as I like it to stay relatively crowdfree if possible... Its clean here with bathrooms and other amenities that will keep you comfortable. Notably, cerain beachses didn't seem to have lifeguards so that's something to consider But otherwise, you can spend a LOT of time here by yourself or with friends/family and enjoy the natural beauty of Florida nature. As a bonus, if you're familiar with Air Fest and are visiting during that time of the year: if you're on the beach during the festival you can watch the jets flying around MacDill AFB (and not deal with the crowds on base. Ft Desoto is defintiely a place you should add to your list to visit. Whether you are from Florida or not, this is a great place to visit!“

“Stopped in for a quick snack and drink after a REALLY brisk stroll on the Riverwalk. So happy we did!! Great food, happy hour and sweet Sam did NOT disappoint!! 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!! Oh my goodness... Who KNEW?! What's NOT to love?! What a treat--we will definitely come back ❤️!! Such a fun afternoon...“
“Absolutely delicious food! She assisted with an hors d'oeuvres party and everyone was raving about how good the food was. Melissa was extremely easy and flexible to work with and I would definitely use her again! Compliments to the chef!“

“I am Venezuelan and for the first time today I was here with my American husband who felt at home because of the excellent service and the authenticity of the homely food. My husband and I were so satisfied that it has now become our new favorite restaurant. There is no other restaurant like this in Sarasota. Not only is the food super delicious, they also serve large portions. Excellent price-quality ratio. And the staff made me feel like family because they are so friendly. I recommend you try this restaurant because it is really authentic food with a homemade flavor.“

“Small cozy restaurant, tucked away ( almost hidden) in the corner of Bradenton Commons strip plaza anchored with a Publix off Cortez.A chef couple owned and operated with super friendly service. Although the menu has a wide selection, I have repeatedly enjoyed all their versions of schnitzel.Great place to eat.“

“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.“

“Simply delicious. An island favorite owned and operated by an AMI born and raised local — if you haven’t been to gRub, it’s a must. gRub’s creative menu has something for everyone (the sides are amazing too) + quality ingredients, you can tell every dish is made with a lot of TLC. It’s definitely a place you will crave.“

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%.“

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL! This place is so versatile with so many options. I got the bridge street sandwich on the jalapeno pepperjack bagel, easily the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had! I also tried the fruity pebbles doughnut, and it was equally as delicious. The staff were so friendly and helpful with the questions we had. Adorable little shop on bridge street, and a must see when in AMI.“

“We were there after 1:00, weekday. Great views and vibe. Had the steak and cheese, which was amazing! Our apps were disappointing. The chicken livers and onions I really wanted to love, tasted peppery. The shrimp escargot was not worth finishing. No flavor at all. The melted cheese on it and the bread served with it were the best part of the dish. Our server was a bit forgetful but very friendly. We will return for sure for the sandwich and will read the reviews of food items before ordering.“

“Coolest place to dock your boat. One stop set up. Baitstore eating and docking. Harvey is a cool dude. Stop in and ask for him. Super nice and helpful. We tore the trout up. Best fishing weekend. Made it easy with being able to use a private boat ramp and park your trailer and truck at the marina.“

“Drunken noodle? Crispy duck? Tom yum soup? They have it all and then some. I love Chang Kao Thai. The food is always made to order and fresh. What it Thai spicy? They'll make it. The fresh spring rolls from here are probably my favorite. Nice selection of imported beers as well. Dine in or carry out. Check them out!!“

“Our server took our drink and appetizer order. Then from then we had to wave down another server for more drinks and our sandwiches and cake. The food was delicious. The service was not so great. Hard to recommend it, when we have to beg for service. Our original server did bring our bill which we had asked for. She immediately asked for my card to pay. She did in the end thank us. But she was not was friendly. She did not ask us how our food was. I did not feel appreciated.“

“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!“

“With a party of 22 people, Brianna did an amazing job keeping everyone’s drinks full and getting all of our orders correct. Kelly the manager did a great job helping out and keeping the kitchen open late for us. Ashley, the bartender got all of our drinks out quickly, and Alvin kept our tables clean when dishes were empty. The food was great.“

“Let me preface this by saying the typical, “I’m from NJ and my pizza standards are very high”. Maybe cliche but true… I grew up with fantastic pizza and have been frantically searching for something that comes close since moving to FL in 2014.This pizza doesn’t just come close to what I grew up with, this is EXACTLY what I grew up with.We ordered a half cheese & a half margarita, and asked for it well done. The pizza came out perfect. The cheese side was beautifully bubbly and not greasy in the slightest. The margarita side had some perfectly melted moz with large slices of tomato and plenty of basil.The crust was golden underneath and crispy with a wonderfully bubbly edge. The sauce was flavorful- both sweet and acidic. It was exactly what you want out of a good sauce.We also ordered a penne a la vodka and it also exceeded expectations. The vodka sauce was well balanced and the pasta perfectly al dente. The chicken cutlet was breaded evenly and fried to the perfect golden brown.I failed to take pictures, but will certainly be returning. Thank you to our wonderful server who knew the food offerings inside and out. And finally, of course, thank you Danny for bringing a slice of home to the sunshine state.“

“A great place to go and watch a marina under tiki bar roof. For a dockside bar a great deal more seating than normal, And for waterfront of a reasonable price.And because it wasn't on there the best onion rings I've ever had that my own mother didn't make.Vegetarian options: It is a fish house on the water, these were not meant for vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: I would not assume there are any specific dietary restrictions that are going to be accommodated.Parking: There is a limited Marina parking lot right behind the restaurant other than that you have to seek a parking space at the hotel in any number of various locations if you go around to the front of the hotel on the south side of the lot you can normally park a boat trailer with a truck without too much trouble or being in anyone's way, or at least an hour or two.Wheelchair accessibility: Low ramps going everywhere, on the west side of the restaurant is a gravel lot, it will be much easier access coming in from the southeast side I'm going down the hallway.“

“We thought this restaurant was pretty good. We ordered the zucchini chips, a burger and grouper nuggets. There are so many zucchini chips in the order and the slices are thick so you actually taste the zuchini. The burger was super flavorful and juicy. The grouper nuggets were very fresh. A tad bit over cooked but still good. The seasonal veggies were well seasoned too. The only downfall to the restaurant was the price. It was a bit expensive. For the things we ordered it was $80 without tip. But that’s the price you pay for food on the island.“
