I ordered dinner for my girlfriend's birthday. Dying for some delicious fish Bonefish is known for. However, Bonefish must not know how to pick their drivers cause our dinner never arrived. To be fair this was Uber Eats fault but Bonefish Bradenton needs to a much better job managing this third party relationship. Very disappointed customer. Nick read more

I live two blocks away and would rather drive the 45 minutes south to the Sarasota Bonefish location than to ever eat there again. * Arrival: No hostess in sight for nearly 5 minutes *I actually got up to get silverware from another table. *Cigarette box visually sticking out of my servers uniform. *Appetizer was cold. (Bangbang shrimp) *My Ahi tuna was undercooked and the portion size was MICROSCOPIC! *I forgot to order a sauce for my fish and the server never acknowledged or suggested a sauce. (Poor knowledge of menu) *The restaurant was dead and I had 3 different people bring me food, drinks, and the bill. *The manager told me my meal would be free and my charge still isn't removed. I'm 28years old not some old person complaining. I will never return to this location ever again. read more

Who knew they had brunch on Saturday and Sunday morning. Not only brunch but all you can drink mimosas for $19.99. That is a great deal in my book. the brunch menu is limited but enough choices to find something you would like. They also have sangria and balini drinks to go with the mimosas. You can switch off if you decide you want to try a different flavor. The drinks are strong so make sure you have someone to drive you home haha. For brunch I decided on the the California omlete with asparagus. I wasn't expecting much because it isn't really a breakfast restaurant, but I was pleasantly surprised with how tasty it was. The service was great the waiter always made sure we had everything we needed and that our mimosas were always full. I will stop back any weekend I have off cannot beat the price. read more

Meal was 4 star but service gets a 5. Davis was an excellent server. Very attentive and thorough. Family enjoyed the bang bang shrimp , scallops and shrimp. Always enjoy the flavors created at Bonefish Grill. read more

We went to celebrate our daughter's 21st bday and our father's 82nd birthday. There were a total of 14 people. We sat at our table for 20 minutes before they even asked us if we would like a drink. They never refilled any of our drinks. They did not take our dinner order for almost an hour. They gave us our checks and never even cleared our plates. Our bread dishes were empty, they never offered us more and the bread plates were there when we left. We had birthday cake that we wanted to eat to celebrate. We ended up getting them and leaving. Complained to manager about poor service and literally threw 2 bang bang cards at us. As if......Have also tried to sit at the bar at least 10 times and you never know what kind of attitude or service you will get. It is soooo sad. I used to love this place. read more

Great place - service is excellent- I've T Pls lets us know how Julie is doing - will you be at studio today ? Again if I can help or Judy pls doesn't hesitate to ask been there now maybe 7 times - they know the menu as it changes a lot - it's all fresh I eat at the bar mostly - drinks are great - I would recommend this Bone Fish Grill - I love on the island and it closes up 8:30 - bone fish serves till 10:15 read more

I have been to Bonefish in several locations that were all well managed . Not the case in this one ! If there was a manager in this place , I could not tell. We started off by being seated late then moved on to the poorest service I have experienced in years. Normally I don't have to loose my temper to get the bill. It was ridiculous ! If you want to talk with your dining partners, this is not the place to go. Very noisy ! In fairness, the food was good but the poor service detracted from the whole meal . Never going back . It was not enjoyable ! read more

I have eaten at this restaurant a number of times and look for any occasion to justify going back again! Sometimes when I'm out of holidays and birthdays I have to go with, "Well, at least its Thursday!" The service has always been polite, prompt and friendly. I do have to admit that the atmosphere is slightly noisy as mentioned in some other reviews, however it is not uncomfortable and well compensated by the enjoyment of the food! I usually order the seafood items and especially love the Bang Bang Shrimp, although the Saucy Shrimp has become my favorite appetizer. My friends and family often accompany me and they have all enjoyed their various meals, most of which I have tasted a bite or two of and also thought were wonderfull. My personal favorite is the Chilean Sea Bass done in the Picatta style! An Absolutely Outstanding meal and well worth the moderate price! Great portion sizes, nice salads, ( I love the Heart of Palm), terrific side dishes and I imagine their desert is wonderful too, I've just never left enough room to try one :-) read more

I'm not usually a fan of chain restaurants but this is an exception. We arrived in Bradenton later than anticipated so many restaurant were closed. Bonefish was open so we tried it and the food and service was very good. I would go there again. read more

Wow. I went in after reading the specials online, reviews, etc. and was looking forward to a treat. What a mess this was. Ceviche was old, fish was like a sponge. (SERIOUSLY! . ????) The advertised scallop special was sold out (????? ), but the place was almost empty and just opened an hour or so before. Staff, just doing their job, were trying to sell anything else. I just moved back to Florida (Miami native) from Austin and this location would not survive on its own in central TEXAS where the seafood is mediocre. BONEFISH... STEP IT UP PLEASE!!! I WANT TO BE MORE SCATHING, HOWEVER I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HOW YOU PEOPLE RUN THIS PLACE AND WANT TO HOPE THAT I (AND THE OTHERS THERE) WERE JUST VISITING ON A BAD NIGHT. This place is a 2 star joint at best as of this review. Where the heck is corporate?????????????? I want to be able to have fresh, to order seafood and hope it happens in this mall. Robert read more

Kenny is the best bartender. He is kind, caring and funny. He is a leader and listens to what the customer wants, especially in their drink orders! read more

The server was great, although I did end up with the wrong meal, it was fixed right away. We ordered steak and shrimp and chicken Marsala, food was served hot and quickly. Not the best food I've had, but I'd go back and give them another try. read more

Bonefish offers your huge family group lots of menu options and the full bar is a plus. It's noisy but they were able to seat 12 of us - inlaws, abuelos, the kids - at one large table, another big plus. (Stonewood Grill at the other end of the shopping center could only do 3 tables of four.) True, it's too noisy, but the food was very good for a chain restaurant. Fish tacos with fresh mango salsa were excellent. Hamburger, house-made chips, calamari were all terrific. Martinis were tasty and everyone was happy with their food. Great place to take the family. read more

I again had their Fontina pork chop! Unbelievably delicious. I always prefer it because its the best i have ever eaten in a restaurant!! Service is always great. Quality of food is excellent read more

It was our first time at this location. We had bam bam shrimp, my wife had a fillet and I had fish. They also served fresh bread and dipping oil and spices. Everything was excellent read more

Food was good but the service was terrible, the waiter was rude and unfriendly. After 20, he would come by and try to take our food, I pulled out to check my phone and he took my plate which contained half my mean. Then he ignored us for another 10 minutes while we friend to get our bill. Never had a bad time at this location before and would recommend it, just don't come at 8pm on a Tuesday! read more

My husband took me out to dinner on 2-26-18. Our waiter Davis was amazing. He recommended the super food salad ,and it was delicious. The Mule drink was very refreshing. We had a great evening and we will be back! read more

Disappointed in the food. I'd give a half a star if possible. I've been to this location about 5 times now and this last time had to of been the worst. I normally love the Caesar salad's but it seems like the cooks were being lazy. The salad taste like they put the wrong dressing and instead of making a new salad they threw Caesar dressing on top with some parm cheese and croutons. The calamari was so greasy I couldn't even stomach it, normally when I order this they are not soaked in oil. My fries were doubled fried, they were previously made and the cook just reheated them in oil instead of making new fries. Again being lazy and unprofessional. Not upset with the server, we always get amazing service but the cooks this time are horrible. I suggest to eat there at night time when they have better cooks because for lunch it's a no for me. I know how most of this works because I've worked in the industry for many years, And cooks can ruin it for everyone! read more

I love the consistently good service and food at Bradenton Bonefish. I have been going there for years and can honestly say I have never had a bad meal. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. They make everyone feel special. The cocktails are creative and delicious. I love trying something new every time I go. The latest one I tried is the Kiwi Smash--out of hand good! I love the little touches that make this restaurant feel more like a local restaurant than a chain--chocolates on special occasions, artwork on my take out bag, people that know your name, and new and creative dishes popping up alongside all my favorites. Though the shrimp, steaks, and lobster are always a good choice, the new misoyaki sea bass is to die for--a must try! read more

Good day friends ,,,today I was off from work and my wife and I decided to have lunch at bonefish grill ..we have been there before and the experience has been pretty much good ....the service was friendly..unfortunately NOT the case when it came about the food..my burger was ok but my wife decided to try the calamari ...bad idea !..first of all they are covered with way too much batter and secondly we now understand why ..its because they taste like rubber bands ...tough and not fresh .......definitely not good and NOT edible for human consumption /////..AVOID THEM AT ALL COST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The service was terrible. Everyone kept saying how amazing the place is but not the experience we had. We were there for 20mimutes and only had contact with the bartender once. I saw atleast 5 servers standing around talking to each other and not 1 asked us if we needed any help. The bartender was slammed with waiting tables and making the drinks so I would never say anything bad about her. A business is not just 1 person it is everyone working and team work. Very disappointed in the service :( read more

We had lunch here. The service was fantastic. Thats why it gets a 2 star rating. The food. Maybe it depends on what you order. I had the shrimp/lobster dish. It was $20. Bucks. I was so disappointed. It had tons of shrimp that were delicious but I could not find one single piece of lobster in the maze of pasta, tomatoes, and shrimp. The lobster was suppose to be the star of this dish, which was why I ordered it. My husband couldn't even find any in it. My guess was they were hoping I would just eat it and not notice there was no lobster in there. It's doubtful if we go back. read more

Living in a place with great local seafood, I normally opt for local spots. Bonefish, though a chain restaurant, can compete here in Bradenton. We enjoyed a very well prepared meal, had excellent service and I will definitely be going back! read more

I have never been given a charge for drinks BEFORE getting them! But that what happen here to me. This is after trying to place an order with one of the waiters unsuccessfully. It doesn't help that I was also waiting to be seated for dinner so I was planning to spend more money than just Happy Hour drinks. Got my drink some 20 minutes later after my group and I were seated for dinner. No apology etc..not likely to return to this place, there are other places that want money a little more and will give me better customer service. read more

We had a fabulous meal at the bar with Ronny as our bartender and server. Ronny was attentive even though the bar was busy. He also made fabulous drinks. We had a Manhattan and a lemon drop martini -- he suggested adding a little blueberry and it was a treat. For dessert we shared a delicious chocolate martini -- made to perfection. Thanks for the adventure since we rarely go out these days. Ohh and he was great about wearing his mask and keeping everything clean. read more

Had a waitress named leanna.....awesome attentive service. Food was really good, martinis were 10 bucks and only about 4 ounces, but the food quality and service, made up for the tiny bucku bucks mini-tinis...try the calamari appetizer. Love this place. read more

Terrible service and a big in my cocktail . Waitress seemed too busy to take our orders .

Overall had a good experience. Maître d' and waiter were not in sync as we were seated and it took more than 10 minutes for our waiter to address us even with water. Turns out the maître d' forgot to tell the fella that we were there. Our waiter was pleasant enough but probably stretched beyond his comfortable amount of patrons he could service so he did Forget about one of our request. Overall he got a strong four Star rating, maître d' a 2 1/2. The food now that's another matter we ordered the seafood risotto, which had Bay scallops, shrimp, asparagus, tomato, risotto, in a lemony garlic sauce. The scallops and shrimp were done expertly as they were wonderfully tender, The asparagus was perfect fresh flavor and great texture. The tomatoes didn't add much if anything to the plate but the risotto and whatever that sauce was combined was spot on. By now you can tell I really enjoyed it. I'll go back to give the maître d' another chance. read more

This is the premier store in the chain. Great staff and the fish is always the best in the area. $20..00 and you have a great meal. The store on south Tamiami Trl in Sarasota is a "meat market" for singles and alway jammed and noisy. read more

Excellent - Every part of the meal was excellent and the service was very good also. Started with a bowl of their Corn Crabmeat chowder. I'm a soup guy and this was as good a corn chowder as I've ever had. A very good cream base that wasn't too heavy, with great crab meat flavor and chunks - highly recommended. Had Curried Shrimp with Grits - sounds strange, but excellent. The curry was on the order of Thai food. Just enough. Great flavor, small shrimp w/tails on, and red peppers enhancing the flavor. I mopped the sauce up with their bread. My wife and I had their Sangria (blackberry) - excellent! The waiter was knowledgeable (my wife requires gluten free and he could intelligently speak to that), courteous, patient, and there when you needed him. Bread was a, baked on premise, chibata like bread - fresh and good. My wife had Shrimp and Scallops w/asparagus. All was excellent - clean plate No room for dessert. I really liked this place - 1st time. read more

Dined there last night and was very disappointed. Ordered an infused martini which came our with no garnish. Half way through the drink a guy(hope it was an employee) came out and threw an olive in my drink without saying a word. The signature appetizer, Bang Bang Shrimp had a good taste but was over cooked. My shrimp and sea scallops was cold when served and the portion was really small. The men's bathroom looked like a Jr High Boys Locker room. Where are the managers? On the bright side our waitress was funny and engaging. She apologized repeatedly and it was hard for her. What a shame. This used to be one of our favorite places! read more

A bit pricey but the quality of food is well worth it. However the drink prices are way over priced considering the size of the glasses and the 1/2 glass of wine. A bottle price is also ridiculous! All things considered we do frequent here a lot, it is close to home and the food is creatively prepared. The wait staff are spot on, as the bartenders lack attention! read more

The food is amazing but expect very inconsistent service from some very arrogant staff who would rather talk to each other than serve customers. My guess is that they make so much from tips that they don't have to focus on their jobs. There is a huge missed opportunity as I try to avoid chains where their employees JUST DON'T GET IT. I give it a 4 star rating only because lessor ratings are not posted. read more

I had a wonderful time with a very good meal, and a very efficient and solicitous wait staff person named, Alexis, I certainly will return to this restaurant. read more

Just enjoyed one of the best cod dishes ever. New to the menu the Crab Crusted COD...out standing. A Cod loin with an excellent coating and then covered with crab, garlic mashed and string beans. Highly recommended if you make the trip. read more

I loved it.... I am a very picky eater and their is a mango fish dish that is absolutely delicious ( Dang! I wish I could remembered the name of this dish). If you are a seafood junkie...... Give them a try. read more

My first time at this location and it will be my last. Waiter's shirt was filthy which was not impressive at all. We ordered dirty martinis and the end result was the waiter bringing a rocks glass half full of olive juice. The food was acceptable but for the price we paid with all of the other the experience was very disheartening. read more

Waited months to finally come and I am so disappointed. Food was blah and service...let's just say I had to steal cutlery from another table. read more

Lousy place to take kids. They were out of crayons and don't serve root beer. They also didn't have yellow mustard. I'm not much for the chain restaurants and do not plan on revisiting this lousy restaurant ever again. read more

This Bonefish is definitely not as good as it use to be. We have vacationed in Anna Maria for many years during spring break, and this Bonefish has been one of our favorite places to dine, but not anymore. The portions for the appetizers and main courses are very small while the prices remain high. The food tasted ok, not fantastic. The calamari tasted ok, but was very chewy. In addition, no bread was available, even as we arrived several hours before closing. The service was just ok and the manager did not come around and ask how things were even as most of the restaurant was empty. If you want a mediocre meal at high price, then this Bonefish is the right place for you. We'll never go back. read more
