I don't give 5 stars often but this is a staple of the area. Absolutely delicious every time, amazing service, always clean, plenty of parking, and the early bird is soo worth it but make a reservation if possible. I came in party of 3 no reservations and they accommodated us telling me that we had until a certain time ( 1hour 30 mins) that's about how long we usually take so we said yes. Of course we came for the early bird special and got x2 short ribs and steak. Worth it in every way! The steak was cooked to perfection and very flavorful and soft. The Mac and cheese tasted like truffle and was gooey. We prefer a bit but it was delicious regardless. The short rib is so soft and flavorful. We ordered a Caesar salad with it which is also very good for being a simple dish. If I haven't drawn you in by now, you will be missing out. One of the best in the bay for sure read more

Food: 2 of us ordered 2 different fish dinners; both were very good. 2 of us ordered the same Delmonico entree dinners and the quality of the beef was quite poor; and, I don't believe that mine was 14 ounces (no way). Both steaks were rare even though one was ordered medium rare. Both steaks were tough and contained way more "gristle" than a quality Delmonico ribeye should contain. We both had to saw on those steaks like carpenters! Service: No steak knives provided - we had to request them. Slow on beverage refills. Ambiance: Nice booth; beautiful interior. Kids and babies in attendance at other tables; but I am very OK with that - I love kids and babies! I have eaten here before and was served steaks that were of incredible Prime quality. So, please note that I am not a hater. Just very surprised! This is a lovely restaurant with a great Chef - you should eat here and judge for yourself. read more

This was my second time dining at E&E. Our meals were from their early menu and were very good. We enjoyed the trout with a lemon-lime beurre blanc sauce, rice, and green beans; pork chops with mashed potatoes, and a chicken, bacon pasta meal. The early menu also comes with a Caesar salad or soup of the day as well as a roll and butter or oil. Cocktails are quite good. We had the Lavender Haze and the South Beach -- both came in coupe glass. Service is friendly and efficient. Parking free and available in front. It's good to make a reservation, as this is a popular local restaurant. read more

Great food. I had the wedge chicken salad and my wife had tacos the food was so good and the service was even better. We went in the late afternoon and that was wonderful. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. My daughter lives there in town so I get done there to visit the grand kids every few months. The fact that they can make almost any dish gluten free is a huge plus. read more

Food as always is excellent. Crab cakes were done to perfection and companion had the prime rib which was also excellent. Here's the thing though, been in this place a couple of times over the last couple of months and there is a diesel/fuel smell that permeates the air and I'm not sure where it's coming from or even what it is, but all at the table smelled it and it definitely detracts from the experience. Service was good as always and waiter was attentive even though the place was busy. Other than the smell, everything else was good. read more

The ambiance is very chill. Beach casual. But very upscale. The focus is the delicious food and not lots of fluff. Our favorite local steakhouse for any occasion. Everything has been spot on. From last minute lunches to big family dinner celebrations, E&E never disappoints. My husband loves Pittsburgh rare and it's always perfect here. The service is always wonderful. read more

Finally ate here and was very happy with the whole experience. Went with two other couples and we mainly had steaks Everyone agreed that the steaks were cooked to perfect perfection and very tasty. Calamari was our appetizer which I have got to say was one of the better ones I have had recently Service was extremely good and pricing is amazing for what you receive. You were very happy with our wines and the cost. All in all a return trip is definitely in the near future read more

E & E Stakeout Grill - Salmon Tower Salad* - American Near Me - Belleair Bluffs, Florida

Very cute occasional dinner meal. My partner and I came here for dinner and we got steaks, I got salmon, which was really good. This place does get packed really fast, it's a local staple for nighttime eatery. A lot of the staff and locals seem to know each other so there's a familiarity atmosphere. There is very little walkable space in that the space between our table and the next table was probably 3 feet away from each other so the radius is very tighten it between seating arrangements. read more

Restaurant is a little fancier than i expected so dress nice. We had a reservation and were seated on time. Place was packed on a Monday night. We were served by Paul who was great. We both got NY Sirloin which were well prepared and tasted great. The only negative I have is the $7 upcharge for some of the sides. $7 for a baked potato with a small side of sour cream, cheese and bacon? Other than the upcharge the food and service was good. read more

Great food great atmosphere everything is wonderful from service to food prices are good too

We had reservations and we were seated immediately. Our server was great and our drinks were great. The bottle of wine was chilled and served as requested. I could go on about the service being superb. But, steak ordered medium rare came out below medium. Manager came by and ensured he would compensate (bill was $280 before tip). The side veggie , broccoli, was raw. Two couples including tip, spent over $400. read more

Good food. Drinks were served when dinner was almost done. Desserts were great. Table was ready upon our reservation time

We were back today for lunch and it was terrific. Service, food all top notch! Thanks!

We met some friends there for an impromptu dinner. The ambience was lovely but unexpected being that it is locate in a strip mall. We started with bread and dipping oil which was wonderful. I ordered the sea bass with garlic mashed potatoes. I started with the clam chowder which was delicious. My sea bass was disappointing and the potatoes were not as fresh as I would have liked. We ended with a lovely chocolate dessert, which was excellent. I would recommend this place but perhaps try something else. read more

I went with two of my siblings. The salmon lunch entree was spectacular. A small cooked tomato with seasoned bread crumbs, broccoli, and a sweet potato mash accompanied the salmon. You cannot go wrong with E and E Stakeout. Make reservations as they are BUSY!!!!!! read more

Restaurant was FREEZING! If you thought it was getting cold outside just wait. The AC was coming from every angle and there was no seat to avoid it. Our waitress Angela was AMAZING!! She was very attentive and when my steak was found to be too rare (twice) she apologized profusely and they covered my wine. Outside of the steak seeming to not get cooked enough (it was very thick), it was still very good. It was very tender and well flavored. The veggies were good. And the Mac and cheese was very good but also very garlicky. Lucky for me I like it that way but others may not. Would definitely come back to give it another shot because of the staff quality and taste of the food. read more

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted and given incredible service. The host immediately sat us down for our reservation and congratulated us on our anniversary. Minutes later, another server appeared, took our drink orders and brought fresh bread. I ordered their take of an Espresso Martini which was delicious! We both ordered a steak and shared sides which were huge haha. Our steaks were tender, and cooked to perfection. Shortly after the manager of the restaurant came by to check on our dinner. We sang their praises and applauded everything being on point. We ended the night with a complementary dessert, which was a take on berries & waffles. We will definitely be back the next time we're in the area. Amazing prices, and even better service. 10/10! read more

We were a party of 6 . Had a reservation , got sat promptly. A few minutes later our server greeted us . We ordered drinks . Fifteen minutes later still haven't gotten them . Our server walked by our table numerous times - granted she was busy , but you think she'd notice we hadn't gotten our drinks . Finally got her attention - she said - " oh , someone was suppose to bring them " . If that's the case and those drinks had been sitting at the service area for that long , then the bartender should have had someone run them or gotten a manager to let them know that the drinks had been sitting there that long . Sitting at a table waiting for a drink for literally 15 minutes is a LONG time !!!! Bad way to start out too ! Food was really good though . read more

Sometimes somebody does something well and they keep doing it. And it stands the test of time. That's how I feel about this restaurant that I recently had the pleasure to revisit after 20 years away. I remember when they opened. I was living here at the time. My parents would always come here for the early bird rodeo steak. Chef deserves all the kudos. This is a special place. read more

Here to celebrate our 49th anniversary today. James was our server and did an awesome job. I had the grouper. Wife had the pork chops. Son had the Delmonico steak. Everything was on point. We love the quiet atmosphere of the place. Hopefully we'll be back for our 50th. read more

Surprised we haven't checked this place out sooner. We decided to celebrate our anniversary at this local steakhouse. It was a Sunday and was super busy. We learned that they have a prime rib special on Sundays. Will have to try it next time as it was sold out. As you walk in , the place looks like a typical steakhouse. Table cloth on tables. They also have seasonal/ daily specials and after going over the menu we settled with the following: Grilled octopus Lobstercargo lobster meat in escargot sauce Main course we have the 6 oz fillet and delmonico ribeye. All were delicious. For desert we had the crème brulee and pistachio torte Service was superb! 4 stars because we were not greeted right away and stood there until they realized we were waiting to be greeted and seated. However the manager came to our table, apologized and took the crème brulee off our tab! I definitely recommend this place and will be back to bring the whole family. read more

We have been weekly lunch patrons for15 years and will not be back. The restaurant has been sold. The new owners have lost the entirety of what made this place a must visit for a great many people for a very long time. Service was uncertain and worse than iffy. The fish filet dish (which was formerly great) had become subpar and loaded with tiny bones which were never there before. The rodeo steak was cooked correctly but only a tiny bit of marsala dribbled on the plate versus a ramican as before. We requested a substitution from the risotto on the menu with fish to mashed potatoes and were amazed to have been charged $4.95 without warning. The charge simply appeared on the blue tooth bill machine in tiny letters no one could read. No check was presented, only the machine and server wanted the credit card on the spot and her tip was to be decided upon while she stood there completing the transaction. Only then, after everything was input and signed for, did they deign to print out a small register tape. We are in sincere hopes that Chef Erwin will have the chance to buy the place back. Then maybe all the staff that quit will return with the patrons who have done the same. Until that happens, the new owners are out of luck with us. read more

First time here and probably the last. My dear mother gave us a $100 gift certificate so we finally chose to use it. We both studied the menu ahead of time and I nearly choked on the prices for most of the options. However since it's close to my birthday, who cares? We arrived for the opening at 4pm and there was already a herd out there waiting. Hostess said that all there is are outdoor tables and hi tops by the bar, plus the bar itself. So we got a hi top for 4 and that was that. A few minutes afterward the waitress (Christina) showed up and fetched us bread and oil... We also skipped apps and went right to entrees. Prime rib for the Queen Bee and Delmonico (ie ribeye) for me. Both came with grilled veggies while I chose a baked tater and QB stayed with "loaded" mashed taters. Based on how crowded this place was from the get go (huge party in the back), I was thinking it would be a long wait. However not even 15 minutes after we ordered, the food runner came out with our plates. Holy crow!! Her prime rib was in fact rare as she asked for it. My ribeye was a lil underdone for medium but still quite acceptable. Prime rib has no flavor to begin with so I can't tell ya much...horsey sauce and au jus were both good however, as were the mashed taters. Actually it was potato mousseline and not "mashed taters" in the strict sense. Ribeye as I said was a lil less than medium but not so rare as I didn't like it. One quick word about that...As soon as the food runner left, Christina came along and asked me to cut into my steak just to see. She looked as well and a frown came across her face. I told her it was fine and that was that. As I said: I don't think we are gonna be back. For one thing, I don't like overpriced food. The above along with 4 glasses of house Cabernet (Copper Ridge) came up to just under $114 with tax, including. $1.50 "upcharge" for a damn baked potato. Service was solicitous and friendly, if a bit disjointed. As Christina brought back the receipt she said that she "hope(d) you enjoyed your first meal with us." Well, to be honest, it'll STILL be our last. I can get all this and more for less at Longhorn while enjoying my experience a lot more than I will paying for way overpriced food. Four stars ONLY because of the rather decent service and well prepared food. Certainly NOT for having to eat at a hi top with no tablecloth and a server station over my left shoulder. NOR four stars for the way overpriced food...However, at the same time: thanks Mom! read more

I was treated to dinner here for my birthday. I had never heard of this place and it's a bit of a drive from where I live but what a good find! The restaurant isn't huge and has unique seating with some private, intimate areas. It caught me a little off guard when we pulled in because GPS took us down the road at first and then we pulled into a strip plaza. Definitely wasn't expecting it to be so nice inside. The food and service was great but I wasn't crazy about the sides, felt a little skimpy in my opinion and compared to other high end places. Overall though, great experience and I would definitely return. read more

Wonderful ambiance inside and out! Melodic jazzy tunes can be heard clearly inside and out while dining. Christina was our server, beautiful, attentive, informative and kind. The food was DELICIOUS! Great selections even for vegetarians. We ordered and enjoyed the Cesar salad and the heritage green salad. For our entree we shared the plentiful Chef Miller's Vegetarian Platter. We enjoyed a bottle of water and a bottle of dry pinot noir. read more

It's been awhile since I went to a steakhouse.. it's been awhile since I've gone out to eat. Service was good, the food was really good. I won't say great yet because it was good. I'll go back and try it again. However, it should stop you from trying, I'm just being conservative about it because I was didn't know the to think. 1. The sampler platter was great except for one item. 2 the escargot was amazing as well but I wish the bread came out earlier. 3. My steak was cooked fine. The sauce I ordered which was the béarnaise, it was a bit bland. I gave it a 4 star because I want to go back.. I think it can be a 5. read more

Always have a great experience at E&E. The staff and service is beyond compare. Always great food.

We had a wonderful experience here. We felt a little under dressed but were warmly greeted and offered seating anywhere in the restaurant. We chose to sit in the front (still feeling a little self conscious) and had a great meal. We had an appetizer before our dinner and both that and our entrees were delicious. The service was attentive and the overall experience definitely convinced us that we wanted to return the next time we were in the area (we across the bay in Tampa). read more

LORD HAVE MERCY. I am from out-of state but visit Florida often, and this is by far the BEST meal I ever remember having here... I came here with my parents and my husband to celebrate my mom's retirement. We started with steak tartare which was on the "specials" menu and it was pretty good! I appreciated that they put the "toppings" (onions, pickles, capers) on the side, instead of mixed into the tartare. I also ordered the french onion soup to start with and it was excellent! It had a different flavor than I'm used to for french onion soup, but I loved it. For my entree, I got the 9oz filet mignon (medium-rare). It came out cooked PERFECTLY. It was juicy, tender and the flavor was unbelievable. It wasn't over or under seasoned but just right. There's nothing that could possibly make this steak any better! For dessert, we all shared the creme brûlée cheesecake off the "specials" menu. The cheesecake itself was delicious but the mango sauce was outstanding! I've never had cheesecake like this before and it was amazing. I am still daydreaming about this meal days after eating it. Do yourself a favor and check this place out!! read more

I was brought here on my last day of work, and let me tell you--I did not expect what I saw when I walked in. E & E is tucked into a strip mall off West Bay, close to Largo Hospital, so I was bracing for something low-key. But the moment you step inside, the place screams upscale. It's sleek, elegant, and honestly a bit surprising given the location. Service was on point. Our server was attentive without being overbearing, and they kept the warm bread and dipping sauce coming nonstop, which honestly could've been a meal in itself. By the time our entrées arrived, I was already impressed. I ordered the filet, cooked medium rare, and it came out perfectly. Juicy, tender, and seasoned just right--it didn't need a thing added to it. The sides were equally solid. I had the garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, both fresh and flavorful without feeling heavy. My tablemates were also happy with their dishes, especially the ribeye and the shrimp scampi, which apparently had just the right amount of kick. The atmosphere made the night feel a bit special--dim lighting, cozy booths, and an overall polished vibe without being pretentious. It was the kind of place you'd go for a celebration, a date night, or in my case, a memorable send-off. All in all, E & E Steakhouse Grill was a surprise in the best way. If you're in the Largo area and want a spot that delivers on food, service, and ambiance, this is it. read more

Have been to E&E Stakeout several times and never leave disappointed. Last week I met a client there for lunch.

Lovely restaurant with a wonderful intimate setting that is perfect date nights or any special occasion. I took my girlfriend here for our anniversary & everything was top notch! The service is very friendly, knowledgeable, & accommodating. My girlfriend has a dairy allergy & our server helped make sure nothing she ordered had any contact with dairy, down to the croutons on her salad! Their fish dishes are amazing & fresh, & their steaks are cooked to perfection! They also have a Chef's menu that changes regularly so there's always something new to try when you come. As for the prices they aren't cheap but you definitely get your money's worth. They do have a lunch menu & an early dinner menu that is affordable & budget friendly. read more
