For lunch, my daughter got the cracked conch sandwich which she got with coleslaw. She has never had conch before and she loved it. Said it was a little chewy but I think that conch is. My husband had the crab cake with coleslaw and he very much enjoyed it. It was a little smaller than crab cakes we have had in the past but he said it was full of crab meat. I got the soft shell crab and again with coleslaw. It was cooked perfectly and a good size crab. Crabbys isn't fancy but everything you want in a good seafood restaurant!

For appetizers, we tried the red shrimp which were cooked to perfection-and I'm not exaggerating. They were moist and tender, plump, and delicious.

Desserts were also no disappointment. The Key Lime Pie, Florida Orange Sunshine Cake, and Banana Coconut Rum Cake were all delicious!

For our entrees, I had the seafood platter, my bride had the shrimp scampi. Finally for dessert we shared a slice of the caramel cheesecake. THE ATMOSPHERE: The restaurant is on the water with bar seating and white cloth table dining in several rooms. If you're looking for seaside dining Pirates Cove will suite you fine. THE FOOD: Our appetizers... My French onion soup was made like a traditional French onion soup with plenty of melted cheese and oodles of onions. There were plenty of mussels bathed in a delicious white wine and butter base for my brides mussels appetizer. Our entrees... My seafood platter featured a small serving of white fish, which was nice and juicy, two small stuffed shrimp, which were quite tasty, two scallops made properly (not under cooked and slimy or overcooked and rubbery). My brides shrimp scampi featured 5 small shrimp over a bed of linguine. The dish was well made with hints of garlic and butter in the balanced cream sauce. The dessert: Our caramel cheesecake dessert was creamy and rich. THE SERVICE: It's always a challenge for a server to serve large parties, but our server did great. Delivered our drinks in a timely fashion watched over us for any needed refills and clearly explained any questions we had. THE BOTTOM LINE: As always with my reviews, the "customer so what" would I return is complicated for the Pirates Cove. My answer... probably not. Why not if the food was prepared properly, the ambiance was fitting for a seafood restaurant and the service was fine? The answer lies in serving size, price and add on charges. I don't mind paying premium prices for a premium meal but Pirates Cove charged $40 for a seafood platter that should more realistically be called a seafood sampling. At $36 My wife's shrimp scampi should have featured large shrimp instead of the small shrimp she received. And, finally, the add on prices which included a 3% service charge and a whopping 21% tip. I don't mind tipping heavily for good service and our server would have probably gotten 25% if it was my choice. However, I HATE having a restaurant dictate what I'll tip! I understand mandatory tipping for a large party but I've never seen it set at 21%! As for the service charge, it was placed on every bill whether you paid with a credit card or not. One of my guests asked if that was a credit card fee (which I hate as well) and was told if he paid cash, our servers would take that fee off. How many people didn't know enough to ask that question, and end up paying that fee when paying with cash?? I hate underhanded trickery like that and discourage it by not returning. In summary you'll have to ask yourself before dining at Pirates Cove, is the food, ambiance and service quality worth the rest? If it is, enjoy. As for me, I'll skip it. There are too many other great seafood places that will provide quality dining, great service and atmosphere without the unwelcome luggage included.

Mangia Clam Bar in the Manatee Pocket delivered a great overall experience from start to finish. The waterfront setting creates a relaxed "Old Florida" vibe, and the live music added to the atmosphere without being overwhelming. The food was excellent across the board. We had the stuffed mushrooms, spinach pizza, and conch fritters, and all three were absolutely awesome. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. Portions were generous, and the menu offers plenty of variety whether you're in the mood for seafood, comfort food, or something to share. Service was attentive and friendly throughout, and our server Jo was awesome--welcoming, on point, and made sure everything came out just right without missing a beat. Between the food, the views, and the overall energy of the place, it's easy to see why this spot is popular in the Manatee Pocket. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a laid-back waterfront meal with great flavors and a fun atmosphere. read more

We were being eaten alive by tiny bugs, so we asked to be repeated inside. The staff was super accommodating and made space for our large party. While I waited, I had a chance to look at the interior decor. This is a very tastefully decorated restaurant with a nautical theme, which was on point for Hutchinson Island. It was elegant and upscale. I won't name her, but our server was TERRIBLE. She was slow, inattentive, and very rude. She reached across the table often, which was off-putting to see a server reach over someone's food or drinks to place or clear dishes. She also seemed impatient with us although we spent a lot of time waiting for her. Finally the food. I ordered the High Roller. As a large party, we already expected a long wait. Fine, an hour it is. But when I got my food, it was cold. Again, big group so you get grace. Where they went wrong is when they under cooked the colossal shrimp in the dish. I had to spit out the equivalent of one shrimp in a napkin (sorry about that) and I sent the other shrimp back to the kitchen to cook longer. What I got back were 4 or 5 medium shrimp seasoned and sautéed perfectly. Not the end of the world but an obvious switcheroo. I did enjoy the dish but I wouldn't get that again. I think I'd like the Blue Crab Grouper better next time. Overall, there were too many small things to overlook the half and half experience. I don't live near Hutchinson Island, so I won't be back to that location, but there are others closer to me that I'll try.

We were delighted when we found out Fantinis was apart of the flavor of south Florida for the month of September which includes an app, entree and a dessert. We thought this would be a great plan to try more of the menu. We ordered the Brussels and the chopped salad to start. Also threw in an order of meatballs. All were tasty. Meatballs I would definitely order again! I like how the chopped salad had chopped pieces of burrata. I opted for the miso cod and hubby got the à la vodka gnocchi. Cod was tasty but I'd probably opt to make it at home then order it out again. Husband's gnocchi was ok as I'm not a lover of gnocchi. However the leftovers of it were scrumptious. Got the tiramisu to eat while we were there and the chocolate cake to go. Service was great. We got a bottle of wine and enjoyed the night while jamming out to the music.

Casa Bella Restaurant

(139 reviews)

We came upon this restaurant only by riding my e-bike down back roads on one of my daily exploring…read morerides and what a find it was! Ambiance: Would you love to visit Italy or France but don't have the funds or just don't like to travel? Not a problem. You can see exactly what a French or Italian bistro looks like by simply visiting this beautiful restaurant. Cozy, cute, quaint, classic, charming are just a few of the words to describe Casa Bella. Placing your restaurant in a little cottage provides the advantage of little cozy rooms, quaint corners tucked away and an ambiance that can't be matched in a modern build. If you're tired of all those hip modern contemporary restaurants that blast that loud metro music, this place is for you. The Service: A wait staff that is always there when you need them but yet somehow not seen or heard unless you want them to be. A staff that keeps your glasses full and your every request satisfied as soon as requested. That's what you'll enjoy at Casa Bella. The Food: Although our party of four did not try any of the appetizers, our salad's and minestrone soups were top notch. As a child who grew up with an Italian mom, we regularly had hearty bowls of minestrone soup. Although Casa Bella's soup tasted just as I remembered, it was one of the few offerings where Casa Bella fell short. Not because the soup wasn't well made but, because it was barely warm. While I'm at it, I might as well mention the other area that Casa Bella was not up to snuff and that was the bread. My dad would often say, you can tell how good your meal is going to be by the quality of the bread and salad. The salads were excellent but thank goodness the bread wasn't a precursor of what the rest of our meal would be like. The bread consisted of a small dry tasteless roll. It screamed for garlic, butter or perhaps just being fresher. Everyone at our table took a bite and left the rest. Too bad because as you'll see as you read on, it's a shame the bread simply didn't match the rest of our dining experience. The soup issue can be easily rectified with a bit of heat. The bread however, needs to be changed to match the rest of the meal. For our entree's, we enjoyed Veal Marsala, Chicken Marsala, Casa Bella Chicken and Rigatoni's with a side of sausage. Every dish was perfectly crafted and beautifully presented. The Rigatoni was al dente, as it should be. The accompanying sausage was snappy and juicy also as it's meant to be. The veal was oh so tender on a wonderful bed of Angel Hair Pasta. The chicken in both the Chicken Marsala and Casa Bella Chicken was cooked to perfection. The serving sizes guaranteed the ability to take home doggy bags that assured another night of Italian deliciousness. Our desserts were special not only in taste but, in their beautiful presentation. We chose the chocolate cake, Tartuffo, and Cannoli. The chocolate cake was super most and big enough for another nights enjoyment. The Tartuffo's were perfectly made with a delicious chocolate coating, creamy chocolate and vanilla ice cream and a raspberry surprise in the center. The Cannoli featured a delightfully crisp shell and a lusciously creamy filling. The Bottom Line: My traditional "Customer So What"... Would I come back? You bet I will. I'll not only come back but, this will be the place I take any of my family or friends when they visit. We'll just skip the bread and ask for our soup to be hot.
