The restaurant has a beautiful and wonderfully restored on the second level. Staff was friendly and responsive. Lunch was good they have a decent selection of seafood and the view was amazing. It's tucked away at the end of the road but was worth the trip!

Gorgeous place with a classy rustic vibe with great food options and everything from the walk from valet to the fireplaces in the lobby- a great dining experience.

We enjoyed the waiters' hospitality, and the cook made some changes to the menu to cater to my vegetarian needs.

Lovely view, terrific service, delicious food. I ordered the Chilean sea bass. Hubby thought food was a bit heave for him, would’ve liked some lighter options.Parking: Paid valet only

We were in Tampa for the weekend to play the new Cabot Citrus golf course. We stayed at the Westin Tampa Bay. The Rusty Pelican had good reviews so I booked a table for the satruday night. What a great hidden gem of a restaurant. We had glass of prossecco to start, along with the Scallops and Crab cake appetizers, absolutely delicious ! I had the Swordfish cooked medium and my wife had the crab stuffed grouper. Both were fantastic and went well with a nice californian chardonnay. A great night and well worth a visit ! I took one star off the atmosphere, because of a loud birthday group who were just finishing when we had our appies :)Parking: Valet parking is $8, so pretty cheap !

Really like this place services was great. People are friendly atmosphere is great. The view from our table was amazing. Only bad thing I would say is the fillet was pretty salty. My fiancé did not finish it. Other than that. I do recommend it. We will try it again and try something other than the fillet.
