    Brittany did an amazing job - Although the grouper was a tad bit salty- the salad was very big - took home for later - key lime reminded me a lot like cheesecake * thanks again

    My friend wanted to go to Boca grande to look around and since I've never been here, I found a place to eat. This location was very clean. Odd that the bathroom is outside and around the corner but that's beside the point. The service was phenomenal was very helpful in us choosing what we were going to order. If I had one complaint it would be that his reference for size for the nachos was estimated. These nachos were huge for an appetizer for two people and we ordered small. I got the fish sandwich, which was absolutely delicious and my friend got a chicken club, which was also very good. According to him I would gladly come back here and eat again.

    One of the few places we could find open on the island for dinner and they had plenty of outdoor seating with live music. We were greeted instantly and told to pick any table we wanted. There were probably only 5 other tables occupied so the service was fine since it was open. The dishes were honestly better than we expected. The salad was very basic but I really enjoyed my fish with veggies and rice. The veggies were over salted but not a huge deal. The fish was cooked nicely and the fruit salad on top was delicious. Overall, nothing special but better than we expected.

    Nice outdoor seating area under umbrellas. Started off with a key lime margarita so delicious! I had the grouper basket it was just okay, my partner had the BLT fries are sold separately. I would say the food was average. Our server Brittney was amazing, friendly and cheerful offering excellent service. The restroom was dirty, smelly and honestly would not return just cause the restrooms were so bad, the main reason for the lower stars

    5 O'clock somewhere!

    Nice place to grab a bite. We hit the beach early and after catching some rays on the sand we decided to go and do brunch or breakfast as it was. Breakfast served between 8am - 2pm, and lunch begins at 11am. I didn't get past the lunch menu as we ordered some drinks, 10:30am aaah who's judging. Food came out in no time and it was hot and tasty. Place is dog friendly as most of Gasparilla island is. Would definitely come back for lunch.

    I went to this Bistro two days in a row and the service the first day was unmatched! The second day we got soggy food, half melted cheese (for a grilled cheese) and the other plate just didn't taste the same. The difference was the staff... the first day our waiter was very polite and informative, she was right on the money! The second day we had a different waiter and the cook was also different and it showed. The service was terrible and the cook didn't make matters any better!!! Our food waited under the warmer for a while about 10min (hence the soggy bread) but it failed to melt the grill cheese... When you have staff that doesn't care about their work it makes the experience worst. Unsure if I would go back or not but we'll leave it to chance.

    Absolutely amazing breakfast!! Had the key lime Benedict! Mimosas and bacon! And check out this key lime pie?

    Great food and good service, the food took a lil longer but it's okay because they were somewhat busy during the time I was there. I ate the grouper sandwich and the key lime aioli was 10/10 amazing!! It's a bit higher priced but comparable to the other places nearby. Would definitely go back.

    Nice place to eat outside. Nice music outside. Friendly staff. As a plant based person, one of the salads was enough for me. The bread for the ahi tuna sandwich was very good. Reasonable and glad it was open at 3:00 on a Sunday as we were just passing by. Large bowl of soup- didn't expect that. But my boyfriend said not much lobster in it.

    I picked this place because my husband is a train fanatic. Unfortunately he wasn't with me, but I went with a friend and we had a fantastic experience. The restaurant is in an old train depot, so the building is architecturally interesting. Of course there is a ton of train memorabilia in the walls to look at. Happy to say that the service and food were equally good. Sue, our server, was delightful: Personable and attentive. My friend ordered the grouper fingers, lightly fried with fries. She said they were fresh and tasty. My Boca Grande wrap was yummy: grouper, black beans, yellow rice , arugula and tarter sauce in a tortilla . It was served with chips which I took home, along with at least half of my wrap because it was so filling, but it reheated well the following day. Desserts sounded delicious but we had no room. They reportedly gave really good ice cream; next time! I will definitely be back with my husband !

    Keylime pie.

    Excellent bartender, Brittany. Good food, great drinks and an amazing key lime pie.

    The Pink Elephant - Caesar Salad - they were kind enough to split for us. (Added chicken - perfectly roasted) 7/2025

    Just had awesome fish tacos (cobia) at the Pink Elephant. Always in search of better than average…read morefish tacos and they did not disappoint. Plenty of meaty fish similar to mahi. Delicious topping & sauce. Highly recommend. They come 2 per order and they split them on plates for us since we just wanted a snack (only went in for a drink). The onion rings were also way above average, crunchy and delicious! Austin the bartender is really sweet and keeps the customers happy. Enjoyed sitting at the bar so he could serve us again. Don't recommend going on a holiday weekend though. What were we thinking? Well the beach had no parking and the streets were very busy. Glad we found a place to park at the pink elephant. We just wanted a little beach outing for vow-renewal "anniversary." Wink. Probably going again soon on our engagement anniversary!

    Sadly this was a big let down. This summer my friends came to visit and this was on their to do…read morelist. We drove 45 mins away to come here. We sat outside and it was very hot. The waitress took our order and besides being served our food from the runner, we didn't see our waitress again. My friend who has an allergy was served the wrong food and we never received refills on our drinks, water, etc. The food was good. Presented nicely and pretty good portions. I finally had to get up and go find our waitress inside at the end to get our check to leave. Would have loved to have a good experience. May try one more time.
