Let me begin by saying that this would have been a five star rating if the manager had made the rounds of the dining room as I would have shared out these concerns to them directly and would have felt confident that they would have been easily resolved to my satisfaction. Upon arrival, we were promptly greeted and the hostess indicated that she would try to find a place for us to sit (party of 2, later dining, multiple open tables). She checked with another hostess to confirm that the table she had selected would be acceptable (perhaps in training?) and then indicated that they could seet us and that hopefully one of the servers would want to serve us. This choice of words seemed odd, but we went with it. The server who "decided" to take care of us was pleasant and eager to please. We had no complaints with her other than some lack of forethought with regard to refilling glasses (she asked permission each time, even when glasses were less than half full) and clearing empty, dirty plates from the table. She seemed genuinely interested in making sure that we had a good experience (and we largely did). We elected to get the mixed grill for two which was promising. The variety was nice and it allowed us to try some things we might not have gotten otherwise. We chose salads and brussels sprouts and cauliflower for our included add ons. The salad was delightful! It came with black olives which thankfully were whole because I don't like them and gave them to my husband. They left beind a briney taste which I normally would not enjoy, but it elevated an already supurb offering. The salad included pine nuts and hearts of palm and it came standard with a citrus vinegarette. It was a promising start to the meal, despite bread being delayed due to a backup in the kitchen. Our sides, main, and bread arrived at the same time. The sides were delicious! The main came with four offerings: shrimp, tuna, salmon, and a whitefish that was forgettable. The flavor of all was good, however the salmon and the questionable whitefish were overcooked and our server didn't check on us until we were so far into the meal that we would not have been comfortable asking that they be returned for a more propper cook. There was a table tent offering a coconut pie that was right up my alley and left me desiring it throughout my meal, so despite my being quite satisfied from the main dishes, I went ahead and got it (good job, marketing team!). My husband went with the flourless brownie with hazelnuts and ice cream. The pie was superb! It was served warm and there was no doubt that it was coconut. I forced myself to eat all of it (which wasn't difficult due to how good it tasted). My husband offered me a taste of his brownie and under other circumstances, I would have accepted, but I was too full to even have one more bite. Towards the end of the meal, I noticed that my glass had a chip in it. This was not problematic for me since I was drinking from a straw. We did point this out to the server and she immediately offered to get me a new glass. I declined as I was not in fear of there being glass in my drink, but just wanted them to know to take it out of the circulation. Overall, the meal was fine although the pace was uneven. There was a slow start and then a gap between when we ordered dessert and were served it. It seemed that most of our challenges were related to kitchen timing and then other staff who were newer in their positions. I see room for growth and imagine that if we return and see these employees still there that the challenges that were noted will no longer be issues. Again, a conversation with a manager would have given us the opportunity to share these observations (and maybe enjoy our fish more). The entire meal cost $75 which felt like a value considering how much food we had and the overall quality of the offerings (save the fish which I have talked about enough). We are AARP members so we received an additional 10% discount which was effortless to receive. I always enjoy dining here and hope to be able to retun again soon! read more

I won't ever be back due to awful food. We started with bang bang shrimp. I see mention of this in lots of reviews and I just don't understand the appeal. It was shrimp coated in mayo - not even crispy as the coating was soggy. It's definitely missing the bang! Was very bland. The maho was good, at least they do fish right but the fries were the only side that was edible. Do not get the bacon Mac and cheese - it is the worst Mac and cheese that I have ever had. So bland and flavorless. The. Russel sprouts were not good either. The waitress was wonderful and any stars are just for her. She saw that we didn't eat the food and didn't charge for the premium sides. She knew instantly and asked if it was bland. At least I know and won't ever be tempted again. read more

For my bday a great friend Kim took me to Tequila Tasting for Pantelones at Bonefish. It was perfect for me as I am a Tequila drinker. There were 5 wonderfully paired courses. The drinks were delicious to include one that had Aperol in it and I do not like Aperol. I tried ceviche for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. My favorite course was the shrimp stack. The sea bass was my least favorite but thats probably a me problem. I did love the jasmine rice and cilantro crema that came with it. The service was excellent. The manager visited every table multiple times, explaining each course and it's accompanying cocktail. We were seated with two kind and friendly diners. The experience was so nice, I'd do it again immediately. read more

One of the things I like about Bonefish Grill is the fact that when I bring the senior citizen part of our family over Someone always opens the outside door and hold it open so we can get in easily. Even though this seems like a little thing when you're managing a senior citizen and trying to park your car at the same time, it can be a challenge. Service here is great our server Victoria did a wonderful job taking care of us. And Twin tails and fish and chips were wonderful but our chimichurri steak wasn't quite up to par. I spoke with management and they made it right. This restaurant is nice and clean and Service is consistently good. The atmosphere here is pleasant with background music just enough. You get a chance to talk with Family. Overall an enjoyable experience. read more

We had a great meal that night. I had been there quite a few times years ago. The wait staff did a great job serving us. The parking lot was great & near the restaurant. Not very crowded on the evening we were there. The restroom was very clean. But what I did like our leftovers were dated & was in the container. I would certainly come again! read more

Patty was great and attentive! She was timely with service. The asparagus and mashed potatoes were fine, but the rice was too sticky. Didn't like the texture because I like individual grains. The salmon was over cooked! It was well done and a bit dry, but I didn't ask for a redo. Most times, I'm asked how would I like my salmon cooked. This time I wasn't, so I didn't make a big fuss about it. The Mango bourbon drink was tasty. The right amount of sweetness and a kick. The restaurant had a steady flow, but wasn't too crowded because it was right before dinner time. read more

I went out yesterday to enjoy a birthday dinner. Was highly disappointed. Did not receive good customer service. I was overlooked the majority of the time I was there. I asked for another drink,I didn't receive my other drink. The waiters weren't hospitable at all. The food was not of great quality either. I don't recommend people of color to dine there. You won't enjoy your time there. I definitely didn't. Do better. read more

Bonefish is always a great time. They are currently having the $5 martinis and margaritas on Mondays. The drink pairing dinner they have every month is well worth it and enjoyable. The social hour is also a good value with drinks and light bites reasonably priced. There is plenty of parking in the lot. Matt is my favorite bartender, he always gives great service. The manager is really nice and always tries to make sure a great experience is had. My only complaint is the dim lighting, it drives me crazy sometimes. read more

Our experience at the Hyde Park Bonefish was really good. Attentive friendly service paired with fast delivery of our orders throughout out our dinner. You have to know what you're getting and know that you're eating at a chain restaurant. If you keep that in mind then Bonefish is great. We particularly like Hyde Park vs the Ky Crescent Springs location as this one is more relaxed and quieter. Overall Bonefish is good and moderately priced. read more

We had reservations on a Friday night to celebrate a birthday. We were seated right away, our server was cheerful and attentive, and the wait between items was perfect. We never felt rushed. The food was delicious. Bang Bang shrimp is always a must have. My salmon was cooked perfectly as was my son's burger. My fresh margarita was perfection and my husband's smoked old fashioned is his new go to cocktail. We were all very pleased with our meals and are looking forward to returning! read more

This place is like a decent bar and grill that's attached to a golf course or hotel. Apps tasted great, particularly the bang bang shrimp, but several mussels had shards of broken mussel shell embedded inside, even though the ones on the plate all had unbroken mussel shells. Ordered the steak and shrimp special - a "7oz barrel cut filet medium rare" - and was served a different cut of steak that was nearly well done. After food runners brought the food, nobody checked on us for 15 minutes so I didn't have a chance to get it remade. They took it off the bill at the end. read more

This restaurant was amazing for dinner. They had good food, great service, and lots of options for drinks as they have a full bar. The table was big enough for all six of us and we ate a lot of food that came with each entree. The bread was tasty which we took part in as we were able to have a nice slow dinner. The restaurant was not too loud and all the waiters were very helpful in choosing entrees as well as helping with different needs at the table. read more

Off night tonight as my house salad was a little too wet, not crisp and the dressing was definitely different, and Mimi couldn't say if they changed it or not. The corn chowder was delicious. Not overly salty, which soups tend to be. Mimi was a little busy and tended to others who arrived before us. We were a little neglected for most of our visit tonight. You can tell she is efficient if she was able to pay proper and respectful attention. read more

The service was great. They were able to adjust ingredients on my wife's meal to accommodate her allergies to dairy and corn. The food was great though the salads did not seem fresh. The filet I ordered was cooked just as I requested and was juicy and flavorfull. This was my first visit and would go back. read more

Finally, I'm back in town to try all the restaurants here again! Decided to give bonefish a shot as people were singing praises about their seafood. We got their bang bang shrimp, cod imperial, and signature pasta. Was too hungry and kind of devour that bang bang shrimp before I remembered to take a picture of it. I personally like their bang bang shrimp best. It's lightly battered, which allows you to taste the shrimp, and that special suace really compliments it. The service was good too. Our waitress constantly checks on us to make sure we are good. Even though we can't decide what we want to order. We gave her a couple of options that what we're interested in, and she gave us her recommendations. Honestly, I would still choose firebird over this, though. Still prefer my filet mignon read more

Thank you, Hannah for remembering my birthday! I truly appreciate you making sure we had a spot reserved for my annual birthday dinner last Saturday. I've had a lot on my plate, and I realized Saturday morning that I had forgotten to call and reserve a table. The service was great and I am so grateful I was able to celebrate with my friends as has been my tradition now for the past 20 years! Everything was excellent, but I do miss the raspberry sauce that used to be on the brownie. read more

I was highly disappointed. The seabass had no seasoning whatsoever, and it was drenched a sweet sauce to cover the lack of flavor. Served over plain white rice that did nothing to help. The brussel sprouts were mid at best. My Calamari came out room temperature. Never again read more

Best bonefish location in the city - hands down!!! I've been here a couple of times and have never been disappointed! The service, food and ambiance is top tier. I dined in with friends for a late lunch. We are absolutely obsessed with the bang bang shrimp, so we opted for the "big bang shrimp" appetizer to share. It was perfect - per usual, definitely a must try ! The sauce has a subtle spice that blends well with the other flavors. I got the chicken and shrimp entree which was fresh and flavorful. One of my friends got the lily chicken and she liked it a lot - but wasn't a fan of the cold slaw side she chose, it was a bit chunky. My other friend got the swordfish and ravioli entree and she loved it! The pairing was surprisingly amazing - the swordfish was cooked to perfection. Hats off to the chef! We shared the margarita pitcher and were not disappointed. The pitcher is smaller than expected so if it's more than two people I would suggest getting two pitchers or a bottle of wine. Our server was friendly, helpful and efficient. Overall 5/5 highly recommend for any celebratory event. read more

This is my Third Time updating my review. It's been a couple of years since we dined at Bonefish. My in-laws gave us a gift card for Christmas. So excited! We dined in on a Friday night. It was busy yet our server Michelle was very attentive and down to earth. They still offer the fresh roll with olive oil pesto which I love. There was a slight change to their menu. They added a wood fire grill selection. Which I highly recommend. You pick a protein, blackened is optional, then you choose a sauce (optional too). We started off with our fave appetizer- Bang bang shrimp. Paired with a bottle of Pinot Noir. Then for our entrees, I ordered the grilled rainbow trout with the lemon caper butter on top, with a side of garlic mashed potatoes and their seasonal veggie which was broccoli. My Mr ordered the grilled mahi mahi topped with Mango Salsa. He chose sautéed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. All meals came out pretty quick and all tasted really delicious! From now on, I am getting my meals grilled here! The shrimp was definitely banging and the garlic mashed potatoes tasted home made. We didn't have room for dessert but I know we will be back. The service was great, food was really good, and pricing is definitely reasonable! read more

Their BangBang shrimp tacos are phenomenal! Not some skimpy little tacos that don't full you up. Everything was so good.

Another great night at Bonefish Grill! My friends and I sit at the bar as Matt and Hannah are always a delight! Very personable while being efficient and shaking up the best martinis! I noticed Tanya H's review and had to point out that not every dirty martini has vermouth as an ingredient. Also, your friend's $7 fancy drink was likely on the Social Hour menu and didn't require additions/modifications. Regardless, $9.95 for a martini is very reasonable these days! I urge everyone to try the Hyde Park Bonefish location and try a martini...truly some of the best in the city! I've been to many places so for me to say that is something! Cheers! read more

Had a birthday dinner with my bf in Bonefish Grill. The price are reasonable and the food portion size are huge. We had order one appetiser and two mains and we have to take half of the pasta home. Good for little date night or family/friend dinner. Food reviews: 1. Bang Bang Shrimps (4/5) - My friends highly recommend me to try bang bang shrimp before I went to Bonefish Grill. The crispy shrimps are tossed in a spicy mayo sauce. They have vegetables underneath the shrimps so the dish is not too heavy and creamy imo. 2. Bonefish Signature Pasta (3.5/5) - We chose the Altantic Salmon. The pasta is cooked with some red peppers and artichokes with Creole Sauce. It's pretty good combo! And the portion is huge!! 3. Scallops Scampi & Baja Shrimps (4/5) - It's served with two sides. We chose garlic whipped potatoes and seasonal vegetables. - They cooked the scallops and shrimp with a buttery spicy sauce/soup. They also served the grilled shrimp on the side. The mashed potato is very creamy. 4. Red & white Sangria (5/5) - the sangria is made with fresh fruits and berries. This's one of the best sangria I have tried. And the price is amazing too ($7.5)! read more

Glad that brunch is back! Checked it out this past Sunday and it was good! After perusing the menu three of our party had the eggs Benedict and it hit the spot. The crab and fontina cheese frittata look good as well. I was torn between the shrimp and grits and the crème brûlée French toast. The deciding factor-the hostess' thumbs on the French toast. (But I'll be back for the shrimp and grits.) Hannah, our sever , took excellent care of us. Was ahead of the game checking on refills and getting our food out to us. read more

My 1st time at Bonefish Grill, and it did not disappoint. I tried the popular Bang Bang shrimp. It was the perfect combination of a lil spicy and tangy. If you like saucy shrimp, you'll love it. The menu offers a variety of seafood dishes, steak, and fish. Well stocked bar with specialty drink options. The pineapple martini was too good. Everything was good, actually. Also, the dark lighting with candle lit tables makes a perfect date night atmosphere. TV's at the bar and music filled the background noise. Friendly waitress and servers. Recommend? Absolutely. read more

100/10 Amazing. We had the host Steven and he was super nice and complimented my manner and gave me free ice cream.

Quality seafood and semi formal interior at a very good price. Pros: Affordable, intimate, decent portions. Cons: Parking was full. Girlfriend took me here for our anniversary and it was a good balance of cost to quality. We were seated in a nice large booth and the staff we nice and offered recommendations for dishes. We got drinks, apps, and entrees that all came out in order. Their Sangrias were a nice surprise especially the white Sangria with a little citrus and cherry and at 7$ each they were worth it. The bang bang shrimp was good but not my style but the special of Scallop Scampi & Baja shrimp with two sides won the day. Most plates were 20-30$ and one plate was enough to satisfy. The waiter was quick with the bill and overall I would come back both for a nice night out or just a normal meal. 9/10 read more

Always a staple! Currently, I'm really enjoying their Lent special with the $18.90 Angler's Catch. It's filling, delicious and a great price. They almost always get my takeout orders correct and I think they're a great quick choice. read more

After avoiding Bonefish for nine months due to a previous bad experience, I thought I would give it another try using a $10 off $30 coupon I just received. It was not to be. After at least 6 unsuccessful attempts to place my order on line, I called the restaurant. Apparently the manager wouldn't accept the 10OFF30 coupon but would give me $10 off if I spent $40. A shame losing a customer over $10. A key rule of customer service is it is cheaper to keep an existing customer than acquire a new one. read more

The service was excellent and the food (I had Lily's Chicken) was good, but the piped in music was not at all relaxing. GET RID OF THE DAMNED DISCO! Play some more relaxing music during the dinner hour, fer cryin' out loud. The booth seating is awful. You have to be a contortionist to get in and out of those seats. Climate control: I had to ask for an extra cloth napkin to drape around my neck because it was so freakin' cold. My coffee was barely warm when it was served because the place was so frigid. Dessert selection is limited and server couldn't describe the coconut pie. Is it a coconut cream or a coconut custard pie?? read more

My lady and I hadn't been here in a while and were missing the bang bang shrimp, so we decided to stop by for a good dinner. Definitely glad we did because we were reminded of how much we enjoyed our first visit together. Such a great place with delicious seafood and a warm, inviting atmosphere. We stopped by on a Friday night, and though they were pretty busy, we were still sat pretty quickly. Our server was very friendly and helpful, telling us about the current specials and featured wine selections. We started with that tasty bang bang shrimp and a bottle of pinot noir. Our appetizer was out in mere minutes after our wine and it as even better than we'd remembered. I could just do a big plate of it and be absolutely satisfied. As for our main courses, my lady opted for the grilled rainbow trout in lemon caper butter sauce, and I decided on blackened mahi-mahi with mango salsa. Every bite was perfection! The sweetness of the salsa went very well with the spiciness of the blackened mahi-mahi. My lady couldn't stop raving about her trout and how well the sauce went with it too. Plus the pinot noir paired surprisingly well with it all. (Yes, you can actually pair red wine with fish.) However, when it came time for dessert, there was definitely no room at the inn that was our collective stomachs. Maybe next time, and there WILL be a next time. Bonefish Grill is an excellent upscale seafood place that's still affordable to the common fisherman. Great for date nights, friendly get togethers, family dinners, or "just because" occasions. My lady and I absolutely recommend it here. read more

A friend and I barged in for a very late lunch, with a lot of seafood craving! There was literally no one at 3 PM, and we got premier service. This place is extremely clean, and our server tended to us promptly. We were immediately started with water and bread, and we ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp to start with. There was a miscommunication leading us to get two sets of bread, which we happily accepted. I don't have to describe how good Bang Bang Shrimp is- every bite is AMAZING! For main course, I got the Salmon with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. My friend got the Cod with garlic mashed potatoes and coleslaw. Everything was SO GOOD! The price point of this place is on point for a fine dining place that specializes in seafood. The service is really good. read more
