The old E &E believed in eating with your eyes first. The new owners seem to have forgotten about that. The servers were very attentive and friendly as usual. The new manager was making the normal rounds and was not really listening. Very disappointed in the Crème Brûlée as they sugar topping actually burned through and burned the custard. The egg custard was bland and needed more vanilla and a LOT MORE LOVE. I've had chantilly in a lot of places but this was very heavy! Sugar first chefs- sugar first. read more

What a beautiful restaurant! Very cozy and intimate vibe, a little on the upscale side. Perfect place for a date or special occasion. The food was delicious! We had the short ribs with loaded mashed potatoes, calamari, octopus and tuna sashimi. Everything was perfect! The sauce that came with the calamari was insane! It was a white banana pepper sauce... We dipped everything in it! My only complaint was that the portions were on the small side. Everything was cut very thinly and layered on the plate. Service was just right. We walked in without a reservation, they walked us right to our table. The waiter was very knowledgeable and attentive. Granted it was a late Thursday night, probably would recommend a reservation for a weekend... Other than that, delicious and we will probably be back to try other things. read more

This is a hidden gem in Bellaire. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's very inviting and friendly once you enter. It was sold a while back, but I see no difference The steaks we had were all quality cuts of meat and cooked to perfection. We did not have any appetizers because of the bread, veggies, and sides that come with the entrées You get a big bang for your buck here Service as usual was excellent read more

Sadly. The quality of the food has not measured up to the their tradition. Their famous Caesar salad is using shredded instead of shaved Parmesan. Sounds like a small change. But no. Bread service has changed too. There are other changes that have not improved their famous food and service. Should not have messed with success. read more

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

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

We got sat about 15 minutes after our reservation time which is ok for a busy Saturday night. The service wasn't 5 star, not sure if the server was having off day. The food was good, I got the filet and my dad the Chilean sea bass special. The got rid of their onion straws which would have added to the dish. Overall, I don't know of it's worth the price. 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The staff here is absolutely amazing. I would recommend coming here for a date or a family function. 10/10 across the board on everything.

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

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

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

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

We're traveling to the area from the Midwest and our family loves steak! We decided to try this place out and we were BLOWN away!! We had the filet, New York strip, and crab cakes. The steak was fork tender and it was one of the top steaks we've ever eaten! The restaurant was busy and beautiful and our server Aaron M. was wonderful! He was attentive, helpful with suggestions, and very friendly! Prices were reasonable and the sides were included in the price! Highly recommended! read more

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

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

Found both steaks we requested medium, served to us extremely rare. Plates both sent back to kitchen, came back to us, both extremely rare! Waitress apologized, owner (Mike) apologized and compensated us with free desserts. Both of us were so disappointed in this experience as this after 20 years of fantastic meals was very unexpected. Learned the restaurant was sold to new owners very recently, apparently the main staff left also and we found out the hard way. Hopefully the new owners turn this around as the once outstanding dining reputation will disappear very quickly. read more

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

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

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

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

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

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
