We had drinks to start; my 20 year old and 16 year old had soda. Wife had a Coroner and I have the spicy jalepeno margarita. All was great! We did not get apps, but there are lots of choices. For mains I had the Birria tacos with onion rings. One daughter had the same. Great taste, but if I had to do it over I would get a side of salad or coleslaw as it was a lot of fried on my plate. That said, finished it all! My other daughter had the chicken Cesar salad and loved it. Chicken was very tasty. My wife had the grouper basket. She thought it was tasty and hit the spot. Service was not bad but not great. Just not friendly. Overall a great stop. Be prepared you are outside and if the weather turns you are on the hook. Also, no reservations so first come first serve! Go. Here.

We were told they were nominated for Best Breakfast, and I can confidently say it is **100% well deserved**. I absolutely love everything about this place--from the beautiful decor and friendly atmosphere to the incredible staff, huge selection of food, and, most importantly, the quality of everything we've ordered. Everything is made to order and absolutely delicious. From breakfast to lunch to dinner, every meal has been excellent! We were especially lucky to have been taken care of by some truly wonderful people. Travis served us on our first night and immediately made us feel comfortable and right at home. He was incredibly friendly and gave us some fantastic food recommendations. Sarah was also amazing and went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly to our liking. Isabel was another wonderful server who made our experience even more enjoyable. **Briana and Dave were also fantastic and provided such great service, making each visit even more enjoyable.** And we can't forget Robert over at the Bloody Mary bar! He made my husband and me some of the most delicious Bloody Marys, piled HIGH with incredible bites like grilled cheese, fried chicken, and bacon. They were almost a meal in themselves! As far as must-tries go, you **have to** try the Cinnamon Bun French Toast, any of their omelets, the burgers, the Blackened Grilled Chicken Bacon Swiss & Ranch sandwich, the Cuban, the Southwest Egg Rolls, and of course, their amazing French fries. If you're staying at Sandpearl or anywhere in the area, **do yourself a favor and stop at Clear Sky Café.** The food, service, atmosphere, and people make this place truly special. We're already looking forward to coming back!

We sat outside during our meal and the ambiance and feel of the restaurant was very welcoming! As for entrees, I ordered the Chicken Gyro Platter which was very well made, seasoned perfectly, and presented very well. The chicken was very well seasoned along with it being perfectly cooked, and the Rice Pilaf was the same. Overall nothing I would change about this dish and I would recommend ordering it. Next, one of the people in my party ordered the Chicken Gyro Salad which they loved. Same as my dish, the chicken was cooked perfectly. It was also mentioned that the lettuce was extremely fresh which is always great to see. The last two members of our party ordered the Beef/Lamb Gyro Salad which they loved. Again the meet was cooked very well and the lettuce was extremely fresh and overall they both loved their meal. (We did also order the Baklava for dessert which was fantastic as well) To finish, our service was top tier and our server Tayfun was extremely attentive throughout our entire dining experience and was very friendly! Amazing 10/10 dining experience and would most definitely come here again and recommend to others!

All this tasted fantastic. My only down vote was for the dressing. I was looking for a kick of ginger flavor in the creamy ginger dressing. Instead I tasted no ginger whatsoever. The dressing was a bland, white lubricant for my salad bowl. The dressing is not homemade. Instead it comes in a sealed packet from a salad dressing company. The bowl was so fantastic, only to be undercut by a very substandard dressing.

Lobstah Mac N Cheese 2 of 5 - It pains me to rate this low as it should have been good and the presentation was an experience. However, the flavor was absent from this dish. The cheese was watered down tasting without a cheese flavor or anything else. The lobster was also absent of flavor and since the cheese was lacking it then I could only rely on the pasta being cooked well. Service could have been good, but the music system was so loud I couldn't hear her most of the time and she was right next to us. She was nice and moved us further away from the live player, so I'll say she tried her best to accommodate for that. Overall experience 3 of 5 and probably mostly cause of the service trying and the beer.

Good Vibes at Clearwater Beach!

This is probably the my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. The atmosphere is relaxed and it's always clean. The waitress is always happy to see you come in and happy to help. They're accommodating to the fact I don't eat cilantro and are more than willing to make sure you're getting the right order. The prices are about what you'd expect, but the quality is amazing I've never once been let down. Please join me in frequenting Juli's restaurant so this local authentic Mexican spot can continue to thrive! read more
