Restaurants in Saint Pete Beach

“Amazing food and relaxing atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!”

“Buona ristorante (aka Buona pizza) advertises themselves as a classy Italian restaurant. This place is nothing more than a pizza joint. Extremely small inside with paper table cloths that they tear off from a big roll on the back wall. Ordered garlic bread and calamari for appetizer. Garlic bread was OK, calamari was so tough you could not even chew it. My mom's OSSO BUCO ALLA MILANESE (pork shank) was seasoned good, but I could tell it was cooked earlier and then heated up. The outside of the pork was warm, but the middle was stone cold. My wife and I got a Hawaiian pizza. It is thin crust and extremely soggy. Could not even pick up the pizza slice it was so soft. Had a horrible, weird tast me to it, almost like a sour tomato sauce. Barely even ate one slice and left the rest of it there. Went there for birthday dinner, and it was ruined. I guess our first red flag should have been that on a Saturday evening, it was not even busy.”

“This is an incredible place to visit in St Petes Beach! Beer is also cold and refreshing, the Strombol is 5 Stars, and the owners and staff are world class. I plan my vacation to visit here, and end up staying for the nearby beach!”

“Love this place! Easy to walk to in PAG and across the street from the beach. Amazingly fresh food - açaí bowls, sandwiches, coffee, ice cream etc. the most friendly and kind family. Come support them!”

“Great on the beach location”

“We ate here 2 nights while staying on the beach this week. The hummus and flatbread along with their house salad for a starter was sooo good. The coconut shrimp was good and the coconut curry snapper was the best fish I have ever tasted and I grew up in Florida. The dish is not sweet and the flavor is amazing along with fish cooked perfect. Don’t hesitate to eat here it was our best meal when in St Pete Beach. Thanks Snappers we will be back!”

“Always enjoy this place when we come to Florida. The clam chowder is so good ! The crab cakes were flaky and delicious, the langostino lobster pasta dish is a must. Everything here is 5 stars but at a 2 star price! Server was also very kind”

“Had a perfect dinner tonight starting out with Sarina seating us and working hard to clean and seat people. Our server Brittany was awesome. Always checking on us. Food was amazing. Two awesome team members for sure! Thank you for a great night.”

“Beautifully amazing! The experience is a wonder so much to see. I am very blessed to have experienced it! The main attraction, though, was our server, "Megan" . Not only was she the sweetest, most attentive, and wonderful person, but she was very knowledgeable about history! Words can not describe how she should be running customer service there !! " Paris Hilton would love her and love it there." A definite must experience!! As always, tip your servers well!!”

“I love every Playa Bowls location I’ve been to. The only thing about this one is that I wish there was some indoor seating. It was a million degrees outside and I was scarfing down my bowl to beat the heat. But I love the variety of bases you can get for the bowls.”

“Great spot for some Cajun cuisine! This place is a must every year on vacation. We stop in at least once for dinner and once for weekend brunch. Big fan of the shrimp and scallop torpedo and the beignets!”

“The starter salad is so delicious and our steaks were cooked perfectly and mine was actually the best steak I’ve eaten! Definitely coming back when I visit again!”

“Great on the beach location”

“Got a Stromboli and a veggie Stromboli and both were very delicious and the sauce was awesome”

“This is a very comfortable place to go. Great beers and selection. Meghan is the BEST! Kind and prompt and always serving a beautiful smile and ear when you need it!”

“Stopped in today and absolutely loved it! I had the coffee and chocolate flavors—both were so creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced. The girl allowed me to try a variety of flavors and loved every single one. The shop has such a warm, welcoming vibe and the staff is super friendly. Definitely a place we’ll be coming back to for our ice cream fix! 🍦”

“Love Love LOVE this coffee shop!!!”

“Wow what a place, and the owners are so nice and they know what they are doing! Best sandwiches ever. We had the mahi special and the lime chicken and was delicious.”

“Came here on vacation, the only thing better than the pizza was the service. Will come again if ever in the area”

“Loving our stay here in a spacious suite. I have slept better here than I have in years! We had dinner out in the courtyard. The redfish was locally sourced and delicious. The soft shell crab was very good according to my friend. It’s a quirky place to stay, but very well run. Love the breakfast delivered in the morning.”

“Stopped in for a light dinner last night and was so pleasantly surprised! I started with a cup of shrimp bisque, which was packed with flavor. Then some polenta and shrimp, beautifully presented and even better tasting. I paired everything with a glass of Chardonnay, which rounded out the meal wonderfully. Loved the cozy vibe and friendly service. I’ll definitely be back!”

“THIs I S THE BESTEST PLACE ON ST. PETE BEACH!!!!!! Ya do not want to leave once you are there. Amanda is the sweetest and now she is my adopted daughter cuz i fell in love with her. She took very hood care of my 80 yr old momma and she had a blast . Devin will rock your world with his cocktails and the DUDE is Chris himself. Love my new tiki family. Always a great time with fun people and even better when it storms. Only tiki bar on my list to visit every single time I am here. And i spend a time there every day while on vacay. Generally I am not a drinker but on the beach a bloody Mary from Chris' beachside tiki bar makes me happy every time and Amanda will create a drink if needed and Devin is more than accommodating. I love my St. Pete Peeps. Cannot wait to be back. See ya soon Amanda Panda my sweetpea, Devin and Chris (my dude)✌️☮️💙💙💖🙂”

“Branzini is a new standard for great Mediterranean Food In St Pete and the entire Tampa Bay Area - The owners and staff ( Especially Tazo and Natatia ) are so inviting and helpful that you just can't find a better restaurant experience in our opinion - The chicken dish was my favorite - my wife loved the seafood and pasta dish and the wine and beer selections are very well suited to the dishes they serve as well. Deserts off the charts ! Just go and enjoy yourself immensely without breaking the bank ! There is also some fine live music from time to time . Call ahead because it's sure to get busy as the word is traveling fast!”

“It's an amazing place where the locals and vacationers interact in such a friendly way! Great drinks, great conversation and welcoming atmosphere.”

“I came here to celebrate my friend’s birthday What a great choice! Terrific food, great atmosphere and fabulous service by Whitney with a lovely view”

“Great food and excellent service. We enjoyed our visit.”

“Such a great atmosphere and delicious wines!”

“The ice cream is sooo good!”

“We had 14 of us 6 adults and 8 kids! The waitress was great! The food was delish! The food came out quick! The whole staff was amazing! Would definitely go back!!”

“Casa Del Pane: A True Taste of Puglia on the Florida Coast! If you're searching for an authentic Italian culinary experience near St. Pete Beach, look no further than Casa Del Pane. This family-owned gem, boasting roots in Altamura, Puglia (a town renowned for its incredible breads!), delivers a truly exceptional taste of Italy right here in Florida. From the moment you step inside, the aroma alone will transport you. Casa Del Pane offers a delightful array of options, starting with their espresso and coffee drinks – expertly prepared and perfectly complement their truly decedent pastries. Many of these sweet treats are made right in the shop, while others are flown in directly from Italy, ensuring an unparalleled level of authenticity. But where Casa Del Pane truly shines is in its dedication to freshly made, in-house products. Their breads and focaccia are baked daily, reflecting the Altamuran heritage, and the difference is palpable. And let's talk about their mozzarella – made fresh in-house daily, it's creamy, flavorful, and elevates every dish it graces. Don't miss their breakfast sandwiches, built on their incredible homemade breads, or their hot-pressed subs. The Italian sub is a classic done right, but I highly recommend the grilled vegetable option with their house-made mozzarella – it's absolutely to die for. Before you leave, be sure to browse their refrigerated section. It's a treasure trove of delicious pre-made foods and fresh pastas, perfect for taking home a taste of Casa Del Pane. Pro Tip: If you have your heart set on their fresh mozzarella or a specific type of focaccia, I highly recommend calling ahead to reserve. This popular spot knows how to keep its loyal customers happy! Casa Del Pane is more than just a restaurant; it's a culinary journey to Puglia, a must-visit for anyone in the St. Pete Beach or surrounding area. You won't be disappointed! Tell Anna the Tedone Sisters sent you!”

“Don’t usually leave reviews but the atmosphere of this place is one of the best I’ve ever seen , Everyone was so friendly and awesome and especially Gabe, he’s one of the most cool, genuine and funny guys I’ve ever met and made my night, would recommend this place for anyone wanting to go to a sports bar”

“I had an amazing experience at Rascal's! The martinis were absolutely fantastic—perfectly crafted and bursting with flavor. The atmosphere and service made it even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy some top-notch cocktails!”

“One of our favorite spots in St Pete❤️ Maritana offers an exceptional dining experience with a menu combining creativity and fresh, local ingredients. The elegant ambiance, paired with attentive service, makes every meal feel like a special occasion. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted and bursting with flavor, from the appetizers to the decadent desserts. If you're seeking a refined culinary adventure, Maritana is a must-visit. Ask for Janet to serve your table if you want the best possible experience - she is the best?”

“Such a gorgeous view on the water! We just had appetizers shrimp cocktail but they were delicious! Valerie the bartender couldn’t have been any nicer! We had a great time! Can’t wait to go back!”

“We visited twice during our annual stay and loved it! The food was amazing and staff were very friendly. I would recommend this place off the beaten path because of the great service. We will 100% be back again and will tell our friends to make a stop. Thank you to the nicest staff for making our visit so lovely.”

“the whole atmosphere is amazing!!!!!!And bar tender was on point as well...will become a regular here and highly recommend friends as well”

“We were disappointed Monday...... they were out of coconut shrimp, the fish special, and their normal French fries. Although we mentioned how bad the French fries were to the waitress, no substitute was offered. We also had to stop another waitress to get drink refills. I emailed the restaurant, but no response. The wharf is our go-to restaurant at St Pete Beach..... the fried shrimp and fish basket were very good, but we were surprised at the food they were out of at 6:30 at night.”

“Great food drinks and beach 🏝️”

“We dined on Easter Sunday 2025 and experienced the most fabulous food, atmosphere, and service!”

“All of it, the shaved ice, the ice cream, the friendly staff…. Just go, it’s old school feel good :)”

“Great staff!!! Large menu. Well prepared food!”

“The quality of food was outstanding. Coming from London where there is a well established community of indian restaurants, this little Bistro is as good as it gets. The food was truly authentic and true to Indian cuisine not just catering for the local pallet”

“I’m a local. This is a good spot.”

“Good food and good service!! I highly recommend eating here!! The calamari and the gnocchi are DELICIOUS!!”

“Great service, food was delicious, place is tiny inside with not much atmosphere as you can only see the pool or the hotel. You can take your food outside or to the beach. It is convenient and delicious, will be back for breakfast”

“The energy. The premise. The loving people that keep it going. The fine businesses that are housed there. The talented individuals that share their gifts and knowledge there. The many things to experience there that contribute to overall health and well-being.”

“Ok. I've lived in all parts of the Bay area. Pasco to Manatee. Goz and Roli are going to make you one of the absolute best meals you will have while your here, thats if your really into asian cusine, and super fresh, hand picked, delicious, organized sushi. Even your take out will be beautifully organized... recommend the haleakala volcano roll, the authentic phơ, and The Big Ichiban!!
If you happen to play for the Bucs, Roli is a fannnnnn! Shake and Baker!!”

“We ate at the restaurant and the food was amazing and the prices are very reasonable. We will be back!!”

“great old school stpete beach bar 👌 great bar tenders great service and always good crowd.”

“Ever since I first saw the Don CeSar, I knew I wanted to get married at the historic hotel for it’s grand appearance and beautiful décor. From the moment we toured the hotel to our wedding weekend, the Don CeSar was nothing short of amazing to work with for our destination wedding. Despite being closed for 6 months due to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the Don CeSar General Manager, Barbara, and the Director of Events, Kasey, had open communication and made the entire wedding planning experience as seamless as possible. They were compassionate, caring, and did everything in their power to make sure the hotel and its courtyard was reopened (and in great condition!) in time for our wedding. (We were the first wedding back the weekend of hotel’s reopening.) Kasey, Barbara, the hotel staff, and the hotel banquet team (chefs, servers, and bartenders) went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was the best day of our lives. We truly received a royal experience as the bride and groom. Additionally, the hotel and its staff made sure that our guests were properly accommodated. Every single one of our guests were impressed by the hotel staff’s amazing top tier service and had nothing but great things to say about the hotel. When it came to the actual wedding day, the banquet team provided first class service. They even accommodated unexpectedly moving our cocktail hour indoors due to rain without missing a beat. The banquet chef prepared an impressive meal to perfection for our 180 guests. One guest even made sure to comment that it was “the best filet and salad” they had ever had. The pastry chef, Amanda, also prepared a cake that was a rendition of my grandmother’s 1950's wedding cake. The spectacular appearance and taste well exceeded our expectations. The servers and bartenders were nothing short of amazing as well. There were no lines to get a drink, and each server was very attentive. My planner, florist, and rental companies had zero issues working with the venue to set up the grand ballroom. The band/violinist were able to perform without any issues. Our wedding day/weekend was truly perfect and the Don CeSar made it memorable and beyond anything I could’ve ever dreamed of. I would highly recommend this wedding venue to any newly engaged couple looking for the best beach wedding experience. There is nothing else quite like the Don CeSar.”

“Great food drinks and beach 🏝️”

“Great Wine! Great Service! Stopped in Grapes Wine Café the other evening! Such a charming little place! My friend and I shared an order of mussels and a great bottle of Octave Vinho Verde. The bartender, Marianne recommended the awesome wine from Portugal – they have an overwhelming selection of wines! Her knowledge of wine and enthusiasm for the upcoming “new” menu was enough to convince us to go back soon!”

“Larry's has been our go to ice cream place over the years when we come to town. I love the coconut cake sundae It is delicious, however since the last time we were here the sizes have decreased dramatically while the prices have gone way up.”

“Delicious food and good service. We tried some fried pickles (so good), some burgers and a Cuban sandwich. It was all delicious. The Cuban was my favorite. Thank you to our server, Alexis.”

“First off I don't know how anyone can give the place less than 5 stars. The waitress was in a fantastic mood and very helpful when suggesting the appetizers and local favorites. The food was fresh and full of flavor. Honestly the best lobster mac and cheese i have ever eaten. My wife had the meat loaf and is usually negative about how it presented and taste however she couldn't stop eating it.
Olivia was awesome and made the experience so much better 🙏”

“We enjoy the service, food, drinks and atmosphere! Love the margarita in paradise, really enjoy the breakfast and Eddie is always a great waiter!”

“The outdoor and pool area were amazing! The bar backed up to the beach and the staff was super friendly. The rooms were clean and cute. The coffee shop was great and the restaurant inside had the best menu”

“Kids had ice cream one night. Adults enjoyed coffee in the morning. Staff was pleasant and attentive. It is cashless. They also have alcohol, snacks, and some non-edible things like travel coffee cups.”

“Everything here is absolutely delicious! I could not recommend this place more from the bbq to the sides especially the mac n cheese, i could eat here everyday! Dont forget to check out their specials too!!! Amazing wings! ❤️😀❤️”

“Top tier service today while visiting with my dog, Ranger! He was set up with cold water immediately and got lots of love. Our server was amazing, above and beyond. Even checking the temperature of my dogs food before giving it to him 😂 My food was absolutely delicious! Great environment, beautiful people 🥰”

“honestly the best restaurant at the whole resort. the food is amazing. the wings are truly grilled, not just roasted and thrown on a plate. I had the coastal chicken tenders and I am going to spend the rest of my life trying to recreate that dipping sauce, it's that good. their service is amazing, when my boyfriend was feeling sick they helped me out to get some plain bread to help settle his stomach. they're super accommodating of allergies for us. this is probably the only restaurant we're eating at more than once in our stay”

“Had 2 excellent dinners this week while on vacation. My wife and I agree that the chicken piccata was the best we ever had! Highly recommend this old style, Italian restaurant!!!”

“The employees were so nice and friendy which made my day! They were so nice about everything the drinks were even more amazing definitely recommend this Starbucks!!!”

“the bands on Monday and wednesday”

“Absolutely loved this establishment! We went several times during our long weekend at Sirata. Was not a fan of the actual resort due to several reasons, but this was the one positive that we were able to find when staying at the resort! Food and drinks are delicious. Service is great! Cornelius was awesome - as were the other bartenders we socialized with last weekend!”

“Scrumptious experience…….can’t wait to go again…….scrumptious!!!!!!!”

“Dinner with a friend was met with friendly service and delicious food. Highly recommend this family owned restaurant.”

“I waited a very long time to get my to go pizza, it wasn’t because it was not made yet, because it was warm not hot like previous ones, when it was handed to me. Having watched the petite brunette gather in a huddle with her coworker, her conversation in front of waiting customers is rude. Especially when you can hear their negativity! Sunday is a hectic day already, getting ready for the work week and I was left feeling like I was interrupting the petite brunette gossiping about your other employees in ear shot. Customers didn’t come first yesterday and her conversation was a detriment to others in my opinion! Watch out for that one IMO.”

“Had lunch at Crabby Bill's today. Blackened grouper sandwich was fresh and tasty, onion rings were just right, and our waiter, Jaxon, was excellent. Always enjoy Crabby Bill's when we're in Florida.”

“Great location with good food, drinks and great service. Best place for sunsets and catching your favorite sports”

“Great beach bar! Beautiful sunsets. A perfect stop on any walk on the beach.”

“Fun place on the beach. It was my first time being there.”

“Todo delicioso. 💯% Recomendado”

“It was very good the staff and owner are very nice and friendly love to talk and make friends the food was EXTREMELY GREAT!!!!!”

“I was there for my birthday and I had a great time the ambiance was great and our waitress was so pleasant her name is Jeanae. I enjoyed talking to her.”

“Rumfish Grill 8-24-24 The restaurant opens at 5pm so we made reservations the day before for the first seating at 5pm. We arrived about 4:25pm and went to the bar for a drink before dinner. Four things right up front to remember that we did not know but learned fast. First you must pay $10.00 to park to go into the restaurant or bar unless you are staying there. 2nd Parking, restaurant, and bar ONLY take credit cards but can take tips in cash. 3rd this restaurant is not for everyone as it has a very limited menu and it’s pricey. 4th if you make reservations make sure you ask for a table at the aquarium as these tables go first. The restaurant opens at 5pm and the bar is open from 11am to 12am. The Bar only has a very small menu so if you want dinner you have to go to the restaurant where the 33,500-gallon aquarium is located. We got seated at 5pm and Audrey took our drink order and left menus for us to look over. When she came back, we asked her if we could move to a table as we asked for that when we first arrived. She had seated us at a ½ booth with cracked bench seat and ½ table. That was too uncomfortable for the wife. We moved to a table and proceeded to order our food. I ordered the Grilled Rib Eye medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. The wife ordered the Angus Filet Mignon medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. Our orders also came with a couple spears of asparagus on top of the potatoes. My dad ordered the kids Chicken Tenders, Fries, and a Salad as he could not find anything on the adult menu he liked. It took a while for our food to come out, so they brought us 3 rolls to hold us over. Once our food got delivered my Rib Eye looked perfect and tasted fantastic it was done just perfect. My potatoes were good, but they were warm not hot but not cold enough to send back. My wife’s Filet Mignon was done perfectly and tasted fantastic, but her potatoes were just warm. The asparagus was cold and hard. My wife had to ask another server to fill her drink up as we have not seen Audrey in a while. She did stop by much later to see if we needed anything. I thought for an upscale restaurant with higher prices the service would be better and the food a lot hotter. The steaks were done perfectly and tasted great too bad they could not pull that off for the rest of the meal. By the way my dad’s Chicken Tenders and Fries were very good, and everything was hot. With the large 33,500-gallon aquarium which was absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing to watch they really have a niche to draw people in. This place could easily be a 5-star restaurant, but it only earned 3 from my experience. ⭐⭐⭐ Follow me on FB for more. Gulf Coast Terry”
