It could be better. I did like the fried shrimp very much, it appeared to be hand battered, but the fries came out of a bag (confirmed with the bartender) and the fry fell off the scallops. The fish was hammered, way overcook and totally dry. The pineapple coleslaw, while yummy (just coleslaw and a few canned pineapple pieces), was presented in a tiny plastic cup. I smooshed it down with the back of my fork and it was no more than two tablespoons. That was a disappointed too. The plate needed more freshness. Plus, I'm all for NO PLASTIC in or with food.

Pineapple Moscow mule

Excellent spot to have dinner the first night of a bachelorette party in Dunedin! They were able to make a reservation for our party of 7 on the same day. We had great service and great food! The pineapple in everything is a wonderful touch. I enjoyed a pineapple mule. The coconut chicken was our favorite, but the chicken sandwich with pineapple was also very delicious of a combo. This is a fun and casual place, plenty of parking, seems like the kind of place I'd want to be a regular at if I lived there!

The indoor/outdoor bar
Dawn C.

Loved the vibe of this restaurant. It has an indoor/outdoor bar. The laid back Jimmy Buffet like island decor transports you to another place. Doesn't feel like a strip mall on main street. The service was friendly and fast. Let's talk about the food ... the fish and chips was fabulous. We got 3 pieces beer battered and fried, hush puppies, pineapple cole slaw and crinkle fries for $16 and change. A steal! Had to bring some of it home. And it was happy hour my draft was $1 off! Definitely will be back to try some of their other culinary delights!

Crabcakes
Christina V.

Overall, this place is pretty nice. The prices are reasonable, and the choices are plenty. The staff is were really nice and the places is nice and clean. I ordered an appetizer of crabcakes and my husband ordered an entrée of the fried ribs and also the pineapple grilled teriyaki in the sauce. I actually found this place on Google map. was looking at my husband's bowling tournament and was finding what was near the area in this place had come up. . They have a great website and that is that was the deciding factor of checking out this place versus another a restaurant..

Coconut shrimp and deep fried reg shrimp.

This place is amazing. Good service and great food! We went on a Saturday at 8PM and there was hardly anyone there which was surprising because this place is nothing we'd had ever had before, and we're from South Texas. We really did love this place and would totally come back. It's nice, ambient, small, and friendly service. Also, prices were amazing compared to anywhere else in the area.

The Wednesday burger special....yummmiiieeee

I have been craving fish and chips and PJ did not disappoint. Perfectly batter fried, tasty twist on slaw and really nice crinkle cuts. Surprise hush puppies were delicious. Service was great even with a full dining room I had attentive service for a to-go order.

Holy Moly, Pineapple Jack's in Dunedin! Who knew this sleepy strip-mall ,would be such a cute little tiki-themed / pineapple-themed restaurant and bar. You walk in and it feels like you think it's going to with pineapples everywhere. The drinks are excellent. The happy hour could not be better with two for one call-drinks, or as I like to call them, well-drinks. I had a ginger ale and Captain Morgan double tall and it was $6.50. Excellent strong delicious drinks, period. Then on the appetizer menu we saw coconut chicken tenders with pina colada dipping sauce . 'If you don't know now you know' ... The pina colada dip is a take it or leave it type of situation but for the most part those Coconut crusted chicken tenders were a reason to return to this restaurant/bar. Soft and juicy on the inside, total raw coconut on the exterior. I don't know what to tell you I've never had anything like it. As far as service is concerned, it was just a little sleepy. The sleepy conversation from the bartender, except for answering questions, that we engaged. It was a meh on the entertainment scale. The food was excellent. The drink was excellent. We just prefer talkative bartenders then you would have a gem on your hands. Thank you. Pineapple Jack's, will be back for happy hour. See you then.

Fried ribs

Absolutely delicious food and awesome service. The ambience is quant and tropical. The food was super fresh and came out quickly. Will return for sure

Fisherman's platter

Pineapple Jacks is quickly becoming a favorite local staple for myself and family. They have an excellent happy hour, better than anywhere else I've seen in Dunedin. Far from the tourist traps of downtown, PJ'S is well priced, and delivers on solid food options and ambiance. I like the split inside/outside bar, which allows for fresh air but not too much sun. I almost didn't want to review so I could keep the secret to myself, but they deserve to succeed!

On the positive side, parking was readily available, and the hostess team was very polite and gracious. He kindly sat us inside to escape the heat, and we really enjoyed the cool atmosphere and Hawaii-inspired decor. However, we encountered several issues during our visit: - The Table: We were seated at a very wobbly table and had to use napkins to stabilize it ourselves. - The Service: Our waitress was quite slow. Additionally, when explaining the drink options, she explicitly advised us against ordering the Navy Grog on the list, stating that it tasted like ship water. - The Drinks: Based on the celebration, we decided to split the "South Seas Pearl." We found the drink to be overwhelming, and given the premium price tag, we expected the quality to better match the cost. I wanted to bring these matters to your attention in the hope that they can be addressed for future guests.

My Dad ordered a drink and the bartender made fun of him for the drink order and said they don't call them that. Ok, whatever, no big deal. We sat at the bar had more people join our group. We were ignored after our first drinks were served. We weren't drinking anything fancy or time consuming. We weren't able to get another drink. The male bartender was only interested in serving you if you want to buy a lot of shots. So he could stand on a step stool dance around and pour them like he was in coyote ugly. Such a disappointment. The music was good although loud but good. The vibe until the bartender had a meltdown and started throwing a tantrum with another patron was enjoyable. Who screams and yells at a person for asking for a beverage when you are in fact there to serve them beverages!? Hopefully but doubtful they will make a change.

Multiple flavors available too. The drinks were made strongly. I did not just taste the strength, but I sat there for several hours watching them make drinks - strong pours! The bartenders are constantly moving and looking around to refill drinks; top notch service. The snack menu is legit too. The queso nachos were good and perfect for two of us. It may be tough to find a spot at the bar, but you can walk up and order from any area as well. A MUST visit when walking around the beach!

We also had a Beachside Bellini that comes with Champaign, coconut rum, pineapple juice, which was also good and had nice kick to it. This spot has a nice low-key vibe to it Tiki style. There's a lot of seating and there seating outside the hut, that sits in sand, which is nice.

I'm not even sure what type of fish it was as it wasn't mentioned on the menu. Service was subpar. Could have been friendlier and maybe explained the menu, as in what type of fish is served. And could have warned us that they are not responsible for the seagulls. (Read below) I would recommend this place for drinks and sunset but that's about it. If you do decide to dine there. Beware that you might not get to enjoy your meals as you will be fighting off the seagulls. We ate about half the fish & chip before the seagull came from behind after being in front of us for about 20 minutes and hitting its head on the umbrella several times and ate off the basket. I mentioned it to the server and she just shrugged it off. Saying once they put the food down they are not responsible for the seagulls. Never in my life have I had someone say that to me that and I dine outside establishments a lot. She said she would speak with the manager. And we ended up getting 50% off the fish & chips.
