Date night with my lady - tried to make a reservation on OpenTable but they were all booked up. We showed up right after they opened and were given the option to sit at the bar or take a table that we might have to give up when the reservation arrived later - took the bar. To drink - the "Osaka Mule" and the "Shiso Heavy". Both were good, though we recognized that the Osaka Mule had a slight edge on the Shiso Heavy. Neither of us are normally sake drinkers so this was nice and refreshing for us - the Osaka Mule had nice hints of cucumber and the wasabi salt on the rim was a huge hit with us. To eat - we ordered the gyoza and the miso udon. The gyoza was incredible - an explosion of flavor unlike anything else I've had in a long time. Truly unforgettable and honestly the best part of my entire weekend. The miso udon was good as well - my partner thought the udon might've been just slightly overcooked. We split both and then decided to order the gyudon as well afterwards. The gyudon was also very good - daikon radish was a great addition to the flavor! With respect to the atmosphere/ambience - it's a small place, but cozy. The music was nice - the bartender allowed me to browse some of the records. They have a great collection and I enjoyed listening to several of their selection! It was a little pricy for me, but ultimately, to be expected of such a great experience. Will return again! read more

Stop one on our date night. In Between Days on 1st Ave S is a must. We walked in not knowing what to expect. Casual is accepted but I would opt for a little more on the business casual side in the evenings. The drink flight was a whole experience; in the best way possible. We then ventured to their "cocktails" which is all sake based. I opted for the Sangria and Pete got the Mule. Both are highly recommended to try! We decided to share a plate so we could try another location after, but let me tell you.... The Gyoza is so good I had to close my eyes and chew as slow as possible for fear of the flavor leaving me. Did I mention they received a spot on the Michelin guide this year?! They definitely deserve it between their rotating menu and creative cocktails, this is definitely not a one and done location. Bring the expectation and leave satisfied. read more

Good, but overhyped. As a Japanese woman who's also been to Japan, this place is very Americanized (though it's marketed as being authentic Japanese). Udon was flat-out bad; it was overcooked and over-salted. The curry potato appetizer and the oysters were OK. The eel bowl was good, but very basic. The salad was our favorite dish, but it wasn't Asian at all. Cocktails were great. I'd honestly suggest just coming in for a cocktail. Service was poor. Ambiance was kinda a vibe; it's a small, cozy place. read more

This place is a dream! I love how intimate the space is overall. There menu is very specialized and changes often. I love their drinks, particular the lychee rose one that I order on repeat. I came here and was able to work on some art while I enjoyed the live music and delicious tastes! There was the most beautiful rainbow outside that looked like a literal backdrop and I was able to capture it alongside the beautiful aesthetic of the space. This is one of the places in St. Pete that will make you feel like you're not even in Florida anymore. Thank you to the kind staff! They truly go above and beyond to make everyone's experience memorable! read more

3/29/26 The presentation was beautiful, but the flavor just wasn't for our palates with the exception of the wagyu gyoza. The vibe also seemed oddly unwelcoming. Perhaps, it was an off night. read more

Finally made it here We got the food they recommend that day, light and refreshing They offer 3/ 5 sake tastings. You can tell them what you prefer Tried ube mocktail. Good, but I feel like the ube colada might be more balanced Abe Junmai Notes of tangerine and grapefruit. It was fine, but not as refreshing as I expected Kamoizumi 'Happy Bride' Tangerine, key lime pie, froyo vibes. This one was really nice, smooth, a little sweet There was also a more classic one that's aromatic and comforting Overall a fun spot if you're into sake read more

Music, lighting, ambience... everything was perfect. The chocolate cake was delectable w/o being too heavy. and the sake... my god. So many delicious options with a bartending staff that was so knowledgeable while also not being stuffy. Best dining experience l've had in St Pete hands down.

such a nice vibey place, great for date nights & gnos. the drinks were great and they had a great selection of cocktails & mocktails. Small limited menu but everything we got was delicious. I think next time I would skip the dessert, it was a little denser than I wouldve liked a tres leches to be. Our server was always phenomenal and extremely knowledgeable on all the drinks & menu options! read more

Saw someone posted about this place on TikTok and I'm glad I found it right before my trip to St. Petersburg. In Between Days is such a vibe. It is a nice chic and cozy Japanese cocktail bar. They specialize on sake. I was really impressed with the mixology. If you are new to sake, they can give you excellent suggestions or let you try out some samples. I also enjoyed the record spinning session that they had. It definitely added the Tokyo flare to the ambience. I like that they had a decent list of NA beverages to choose from. Highly recommend the mock mule. read more

This place is throwing down a vibe and I'm picking it up! Hubby surprised me with a date night and it was amazing. What to expect: This great little gem is located in a hipster neighborhood in a former home. There is off street parking and outdoor seating. When you step inside you feel like you are walking into your best friend's house where you instantly feel cozy and welcomed. There are about 6-7 tables and a beautiful bar so make sure you make reservations. The atmosphere is so romantic and intimate with records (yes like the actual vinyl ones) playing and very soft lighting. It's a small shareable menu with pork belly, Brussels sprouts, oysters and it was all delicious and beautifully presented. They have an amazing Sake menu and their cocktails all have sake infused. Loved The Lady in Red - spicy just the way I like it. Definitely going back to the gem-the vibe the service and the food make this a must do in St. Petersburg! read more

Love the concept but tbh the gyozas were horrible. Super salty, drinks were okay. I had the sangria, it was a little too tart for me. But everything had a nice presentation. Service was great! Everyone was friendly. Just would improve on the food a bit. The oysters, I believe she said was from Rhode Island, salty as well but the ocean makes those so... read more

Parking was miserable, especially in the pouring rain. I practically had to swim to the entrance and dodge a sketchy encounter with a sidewalk philosopher on the way in. But once I make it inside, dripping wet and rethinking my life choices, I entered the tiny, dimly lit room that feels like a cross between a Tokyo vinyl bar and a really cool basement your friend swears is "where the magic happens." Seven cozy little tables, a high-top bar, a few stools, and a whole vibe powered by vintage Klipsch Cornwalls. The music was chef's kiss. DJ spinning something obscure and cool enough to make me pretend I knew what it was. I ordered an Asahi Rice Lager (because when in Rome...) and dove into the Salmon Ochazuke and Brûléed Pork Belly. The Filipino Crack Sauce--sautéed in ginger beer--was absolutely killer. I could drink that stuff. One quirky detail: they serve everything with reusable wooden chopsticks. Not a fork in sight. And honestly, the place is just pretentious enough to make you feel like you'd be banished for asking for one. But hey, it worked. I adapted. Overall, a moody little gem for foodies, audiophiles, and people who know how to use chopsticks. Just Uber if it's raining. read more

Amazing! The vibe the food the staff. Such a great experience. We were lucky to walk in and sat at the bar. It was great... we got to chat with Sky and he provided some awesome info about sake, the process, tasting notes, varieties. The food is delicious! Small menu with great items that rotate often. The pork belly is a must, the salmon is delicious. All are drinks were fantastic. The selection of vinyl is odd but cool. Overall super experience. Highly recommend. read more

An excellent sake bar that I discovered thanks to the mention in Michelin guide. Sake list is very impressive and the new dishes prepared daily perfectly complement the sake offerings. I truly enjoyed my sake tasting and the fresh oysters from Canada. The best part of this experience is a unique ambiance with a lovely music. Perfect place for a romantic date, for the friends' night out or a solitary sake lover. The warm and personal service makes this bar welcoming for everyone. Cannot wait to come back! read more

One of the absolute coolest places I've ever eaten! This place is such a unique experience. They have sake sommeliers. The staff are so knowledgeable about their offerings. The drinks are amazing!!! Get the Osaka cocktail if available. Wowowowowow!!! Best drink I've ever had. I ordered the daily special for food. It was so fresh. Their menu is ever changing which keeps the experience new and exciting! The whole restaurant is dark with moody lighting. There is vibey music playing. Very cool atmosphere read more

I love love love In Between Days. The workers are so friendly and the drinks are delicious. Seriously, try anything the bartender recommends because you can't go wrong. We tried the Kyoto Blossom and the Mule, both delicious. The best sip of the day was the shots for two, chai infused sake with green tea infused sake and a proprietary blend from the bartender. Yum yum yum. For food, we had the gyoza and the special (tuna poke). No complaints about a single sip or bite. The vibes are always on point, if you sit at the bar you can see the records their playing right in front of you. read more

This was a trendy stop in St Pete during our trip out there. Kind of a unique spot too, service was friendly and making a reservation is easy. Dishes are really expensive and take a while to come out. We made a reservation for 5 pm and ended up leaving close to 7. Food is 'tapas style' so wouldn't recommend coming in for a full meal, and quite small for how expensive they were. We ended up ordering 5 or so dishes and leaving hungry despite the cost - highly rec the gyoza and the chef noodle. Want to echo another reviewer who said they have light pours. Mom and I ordered cocktails and couldn't taste any of the sake or alcohol in them. There is one beer on the menu, along with some mocktails and different cocktails with sake in them. The music was nice and not obnoxious or difficult to listen to. The temperature inside was comfortable too. Parking is street parking! Make a reservation ahead of time if you can, walk ins are limited. Overall, maybe a one time visit - not sure if we'd venture back here due to how costly the evening was, but it was fun for a random stop on our trip. read more

Tokyo tucked away in the heart of St Pete! For a starter we opted for the Oysters which were from New Brunswick Canada this week. They were delicious and well shucked. Followed by a Bruleed Pork Belly shaped by a delicious creamy sauce. Perfectly cooked and very delicious. The amberjack was amazing as well and they provided two cuts (belly and loin) incredibly fresh and buttery accompanied by various garnishes. The sake flight complimented the meal extremely well. The sommelier Noah was very knowledgeable about the Sake he chose for us. Only 4 stars because it was a bit loud in there when we went. Will definitely be back for more! read more

CANNOT. RECOMMEND. THIS. ESTABLISHMENT. ENOUGH. In Between Days is an absolute gem. A beautiful sake bar with a ton of selection, great cocktails and even better food.

You'll thank me later. read more

In Between Days is one of my favorite spots in all of the Tampa/St. Pete area. Such a cool concept to have a Tokyo-style listening bar, but with not only good drinks but amazing food too! My girlfriend and I started with drinks, and got the Lychee Sangria and the Cucumber Mule. The wasabi salt on the rim of the mule was so creative and fun, with the wasabi flaring up in your mouth and then the drink cooling it off. For food, all of their menu items are shareables. The cucumber salad was a nice start, but the pork belly was absolutely the best dish I've had in months. It melted in your mouth and was so indulgent it felt like dessert. The short rib and carrot gyoza was also good with a nice parsnip purée to lighten it up. As you eat and drink, you can sit back and enjoy the jazzy beats of whatever records were chosen to play that night. The servers are friendly and attentive. I love the decoration and little details inside the building too! Overall, this is just such a well crafted and well run establishment that kinda flies under the radar since it's so small, and I hope it gets the credit it deserves! read more

Came here on a Saturday night around 8 PM. We had a party of six so we had to sit outside. We really just came here for cocktails, which were pretty good. The first drink I had was a hibiscus inspired drink, which was great and then the second drink I had was a coffee inspired lavender drink, but the lavender was a bit too strong for my liking. I definitely plan on coming back and making a reservation just for the inside for a date night. read more

Such a vibey little hidden gem in St Pete. The whole menu is sake based and has a lot of unique flavor combinations with beautiful cocktail presentation. They have a curated limited menu where I got to the try the salad and the short rib dumplings both which were presented beautifully and had great flavor. I definitely would say go after dark as there red disco lighting which is a vibe versus daytime. The staff were very friendly and attentive and this place is casual enough while still feeling vibey. read more

I'm a sake lover so this place was on my list. It's a little hard to find as its in an unassuming house in a residential area. There is plenty of parking in the neighborhood, which seems a little bit on the sketchy side. I had to drive by twice to find the sign. The interior is small, but cool. The sushi here is sashimi style and very expensive. $38 for about 8 pieces of Hamachi seemed steep to me as you need to order more than this to get full. The sake selection and service were great. I'm giving it 4 stars because of the cost of the food. I feel I'd need to spend at least $100 on food options here to leave satisfied. read more

I wish I could give this place 5 stars but I have had terrible service the past two times I've been there. The woman server / possibly manager , is extremely rude and unfortunately has ruined this place for me. I've brought two different groups of people here and she was extremely rude to both groups. Some people aren't meant to be in the service industry and she is definitely one of them. She was complaining loudly about work at the bar as well. I understand complaining about work and that we are all human but don't do it in front of patrons. read more

I have to say, this place is an overpriced joke and the service was ridiculous. The only person who was genuinely nice wasn't even our server...they just helped us open a rusty glass water bottle. Our actual server, a woman with curly high hair, kept dropping things on the ground, was unnecessarily rude to us, and kept walking away from our table impulsively. She kept saying it was "last call" every hour...so were you lying about us being able to order more food? Also, why are beer bottle boxes being stored in the bathroom? No wonder the beer I drank smelled like diarrhea. The food is overpriced, and clearly, there's little care about cleanliness or proper storage. You guys really just pick and choose who you serve properly. Food? Oof really mid to attract the crowd. Watery $16 drinks and 5 goyzs for $22? Please LMAO read more

This place is a jewel. The ambience takes you to another place - a tea house? Service is friendly and efficient. Food was beautiful and creative.

This place has it all. Only one minor issue.... It's super cute and small. Had an amazing menu and lovely vinyl records and sale.

I went here last night for a date. This establishment always has a special place in my heart because it is very unique and quaint and feels like a well kept secret hidden gem in St Pete. They serve a constantly changing limited venue and we got the salmon, short rib gyoza and oysters. This was an absolute treat and the drinks were incredible too. every time you come here, it's a slightly different experience with new specialty drinks and menu items. they are consistently delicious though. The ambience is moody and romantic. The servers are mindful of the tapas style and timing the courses and they are knowledgeable on menu items and drinks. Loved it. read more

Such a cool vibe and unique dining experience. This place is in a cozy home converted to a restaurant. It offers a warm and intimate dining setting. Service was excellent and the food exceptional. We started with the saki samplers. All cocktails are saki based which is great! The menu is small but big in flavors. We had the cucumber salad and their special was a duck ramen bowl! Yum. The spare ribs potstickers were a big hit! The cheesecake was delish! Reservations are highly recommended but they do have a small bar you may dine at and some outdoor setting. The signage needs to be made better for location purposes but we loved this hidden gem and will definitely be back! read more

Wow...so glad I gave this place another try! Ordered one of everything on their perfectly curated menu and they were all amazing! Also highly recommend the sake flights. We each ordered the 5-flight sake and they were both different, which was great because we shared our favorites. Can't say enough about the hamachi crudo, short rib gyoza (served on top of yummy parsnip puree) or the chef's noodles (glass noodles and huge prawns in a flavorful spicy broth)! The scallops were served with the most delightful roasted veggies on top of a generous slice of pork belly. Super fresh and high quality ingredients in everything! They now take reservations, which I'd also highly recommend because this is such a small space. read more

Immaculate vibes here at this Tokyo inspired listening bar. With very few tables inside, dim lightning, and records spinning, this place delivers the perfect intimate vibes for a date night or smaller girls night. We went originally just for drinks but ended up ordering their marinated cucumbers and pork belly. I truly don't think I've ever had better pork belly. It was crispy, full of flavor, and paired with a delicious light sauce. The cucumbers were also amazing. I would 100% reorder both of these. read more

This is a very cute little place right off the main drag of central ave. A reservation is highly recommended as it does get busy. I got the berenguer luck and it was divine! It was so light but the heat from the serrano pepper really what did it for me. It was a spicy drink that was actually spicy but in such a controlled way that didn't over power the other flavors. As a small plate we got the crudo and we didn't want to leave yet so we ordered the mushroom dumplings as well. The crudo was fresh and really just melted in your mouth. The dumplings were okay, maybe a bit too gingery for my liking but my friend really enjoyed them. I look forward to going back! The ambiance of the restaurant is cool, the staff were very kind, and they change up the menu as well. read more

The drinks are absolutely out of this world. Every creation is so delicious, the ambiance both indoors and out is lovely, and the service is great (although I wish they would ask us if we want separate checks instead of always just bringing one, like this isn't Europe lol). The food is fun and innovative, but I often find it really overpriced for what it is. Regardless, this is my favorite cocktail bar in the area and might be one of the only ones I feel is even worth going to at all at the moment. read more

Very moody, dark and sexy ambiance! We walked in and were sat at the bat since we all their tables were reserved. We don't really mind things like that so if you want a table i recommend making reservations. I tried the "wildflower " sake. Very plumy and fragrant. I enjoyed it. We tried a little bit of everything. The noodles special which was spicy miso broth with chicken and vegetables.The pineapple kimchi is a certified staple. I will order it every time i go. The oyster were small and fresh but i didn't ask where they were sourced. The onion vinegar sauce for the oysters was very pleasant. We also did the sticky rick and salmon which was served with a green tea broth on top. The salmon was tender and moist while the fried crunchy rice offered a great texture even in broth. Very awesome place they have event on some nights so stop by id you ever want some live jazz played while enjoying a moody ambiance. Our bartender was great, she gave us a free drink because she liked our vibes . read more
