Level 11 is at the top of the Bellwether Hotel. Take the elevator up and you are greeted by a bar -…read morego to the sides and this is where they had seating both longue type and dining. Seating is seat yourself. Most of the seating is very tight/narrow and is about as wide as a hallway. The longue area is a bit bigger and more spacious but not great views of the beach or sunset. Bathrooms are by the longue area. Come for the sunset views and stay for the drinks/food. If your plan is to come to see the sunset, then you need to get here early in order to get a good seat. Two bars - one in the back by the elevator and one on the other side that faces the beach. There is a ledge type area that allows for more people to stand to look at the beach/sunset. We were told it's best to order your drink/food at the bar and then go sit down to have it brought out to you. Food menu is limited and pricey. We got a crab cake and samba waves (cowboy caviar type dip with wantons). The food was excellent, fresh and good portion size. Drink wise, we were on our babymoon, so I got a mocktail and it was delicious! Bartender made me a raspberry mojito mocktail. The views of the sunset are beautiful considering how high up you are. After the sunset most people got out of there and it was quiet.

From the moment we arrived, our server David was on point. He was incredibly attentive and had such a great personality, he really added to the night. We ordered a bottle of wine to share and I had moscato as I prefer more sweet options. The appetizers were amazing! We had extra bread, the mac and cheese, brussel sprouts, meatballs and corn. Every bite was delicious, and it felt like Thanksgiving. I ordered the 6 ounce filet and a side of baked asparagus with hollandaise. It was very satisfying. Desert to share was Creme Brule and although that is not my favorite, this was really good!!! I really enjoyed the entire experience, David made it so much fun for us with his great attitude! I look forward to returning to St. Pete some day and coming back for another meal.

Outstanding Experience - True Award-Winning Steaks! If you…read moreare looking for the absolute best steak in town, look no further. This place deserves every single award and accolade it gets. We had an incredible dining experience here. The standout feature of the night was undeniably the steak. It was cooked to absolute perfection, incredibly juicy, and packed with flavor. You can tell they use premium cuts of meat and know exactly how to prepare them. Every single bite was elite. Beyond the phenomenal food, the management is fantastic and ensures everything runs smoothly. The entire team goes out of their way to provide top-notch service that makes you feel genuinely welcome. They are just one step away from getting the official Yelp recognition they truly deserve for their steaks. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and visit. This place is an absolute gem!

SOLID 5 STARS! My…read moreniece, Laura, and her partner, Rich, are visiting from Chicago. She wanted a restaurant with outdoor seating, a view of the water, an excellent wine list, fine dining selections, AND open on a Monday night. I cried for Help from Yelp. 82 Degrees nailed all 5 criteria. At 6:15pm We were able to make an on-line reservation for three people for 6:30pm. Be careful to only park in spots designated for the restaurant or you will be towed. You can't miss the parking signs because they are plastered on every parking spot. We arrived and were immediately shown to a choice rooftop table just in time to enjoy a fine view of the sunset on the Gulf. After the sun set the bartender asked the diners at the dozen or so tables if they wanted the huge glass windows closed, and since it was starting to get chilly everyone agreed. My niece is very knowledgeable about wine, so she took charge of the wine list. After discussing the (Admittedly small, but well selected) list with the sommelier Laura chose the Iron + Sand Cabernet Sauvignon, a well-regarded, bold red wine from Paso Robles, California (4.8 Stars rating, I looked it up). She must have liked it, because she drank two glasses. Later on, she ordered a Pinot Grigio to go with her entree but I've forgotten the name. She also chose specialty drinks for Rich and I that were tasty and had a nice kick to them, but I don't remember their names either. I would have taken a picture of the drinks menu but my niece wouldn't let go of the list! (Which also meant we couldn't see the prices either, but like the saying goes: If you have to ask, you can't afford it!) It took us a while to study the menu. Just like the wine list, the menu has limited selections but offers excellent choices. It was hard to make a decision! We started off sharing Crab Cakes ($18) and Lobster Bruschetta ($21) appetizers, and we also shared an order of the Lobster Bisque ($15). All three of us agreed that the appetizers were yummy, but the Lobster Bisque was worth the trip all by itself! For my entree I ordered the Wild Caught Snapper with mango pineapple salsa and broccolini ($36) and Truffle Fries ($9). Rich went with the Grouper BLT ($26) and Laura chose the Parmesan Cream Pasta ($26) (Which was why she needed a white wine to go with her entree). Portions did not appear to be large, yet none of us were able to finish our entrees, leaving plenty for Rich and Laura to take home in biodegradable containers for a midnight snack. I'm sorry I wasn't quick enough to get pictures of the entrees. Rich and Laura are not used to snapping pics before digging in, but I can tell you they were all well presented. Even though we were all full, we couldn't resist sharing a slice of: SALTED CARAMEL BUTTERFINGER CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE!!! ($12). Just the name tells you everything you need to know. While Rich and I were dueling with our forks, Laura swooped in and ate most of the dessert, which is totally unfair but is a legitimate female perk so there was nothing we could do. Next time we'll order more than one slice! Our perky waitress was extremely busy serving everyone but managed to keep the entire restaurant happy with her service. I don't think I saw her standing still for more than a couple seconds. Didn't get her name, either, but I'm sure the excellent tip told her we were pleased.

After spending the morning on the beach, we decided to transition to the pool. Coconut Charlie's services the Hilton Garden Inn pool which was very convenient because we weren't in the mood to walk further or drive somewhere for lunch. We placed an order from the pool and they brought our food in to-go containers. We ordered the following: Spicy marg Grilled mahi mahi tacos Chicken tender platter The spicy marg was good and had a nice kick to it. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the mahi mahi. Definitely not stingy. It came with tortilla chips and a small container of salsa. The flavor was light. My husband got the chicken tender platter which came with a generous amount of chicken and fries. I helped him eat some of the fries which were cooked pretty well. Coconut Charlie's is a great, convenient option especially if you're spending the day at the beach!

Just a quick update to my review to congratulate the place for getting some nice local press…read moreattention: http://www.tampabay.com/restaurants/bar-review-el-agave-gives-tequila-a-well-deserved-star-turn-20190801/ El Agave Bar is a fantastic addition to St Pete Beach that definitely sets itself apart from the completely uninspired Bud Light or Fireball shots dive bars it's surrounded by. If you're looking for a (mostly) tequila-based craft cocktail, or a break from the norm in walking distance from numerous hotels and beach bars, this is definitely the place to go. They're related to the excellent Agave restaurant two doors down in the same building, so certain Agave food items are available here. In any case, I stopped in for some drinks recently and loved everything. I started with their Oaxaca Old Fashioned, which is an orange-tasting mix of tequila, mezcal and bitters. Moved on to The Don; a great margarita. Finally, feeling the need to step it up, I asked for a recommendation on a reasonably priced smooth tequila to sip; the recommended Padre Azul anejo was exactly what I was looking for. The interior has more of a lounge vibe than a bar; lots of group seating areas, a pool table, chess, etc. Now, my six months later update to my original review; I've since ventured into the world of mezcal, and love coming here to find random new mezcals they get in. Mezcal is also produced from the agave plant, but unlike tequila, generally can't be produced in anywhere near the volume, so you aren't going to find it receiving the same attention tequila does, since no distiller could generate enough to keep up with the demand an advertising campaign would bring. I've found I really enjoy a smoky mezcal, straight up or even for an upgraded margarita, and many of the mezcals they serve here can also be purchased in bottle form at the liquor store next door (a family member of the owner owns that store).
