We recommend this Placida Grill. We had our first dinner here today, and were pleasantly surprised. My Chicken Picatta was tasty. Hubbys Fried shrimp dinner was so good that I stole a few bites. We had a smiling server, prompt service and delucious warm bread. 5 stars!! read more

First impressions go a long way- I've been here twice now. Service, friendliness and great food make a winning combination. The bartender DAN was very kool- easy to talk too. Felt like someone,one could make good friends with over time. Menu has much to choose from steaks, seafood to burgers. All with a twist and flair putting it over the top. Wines and full bar - Inside the mood is relaxing, can be a good place for date night ! There are a few tables outside - All Fresco- Lots of parking out front. Prices reasonable- read more

Great food and service. I had the Koby sliders and loved them. My wife had the chicken BLT and loved it. We will be back soon.

Nothing authentic about the food...mostly food service canned items. Service was good. Outdoor tables are not suitable for dining. read more

Not bad.... drink order corrected. Burger done properly with Swiss onions and mushrooms let/tom. Onions soup, great. Salt level ok. Scalop diner ok. Orzo cheesy. No house salad. Drink prices great! Lovely people! Sat on bar side. read more

Decent food and great service. A little overpriced. Seems sort of like a cash grab.

Service was super both times. Food was very good. Interesting fusion going on with the veggie Papardelle. It was Italian at the restaurant, but became almost Asian when I heated it up. The flat noodles were great as were the veggies. Atmosphere could use some freshening. Seems more bar like, but that may be what their regulars prefer. Will be going back read more

Very elegant! I was at this location before when it was another restaurant. Placida Grill is a step up from the bistro that had been in this space previously. Just wanted to give the locals a heads-up so they are not surprised by the atmosphere-and the prices here! I will say the higher price point is warranted-the food is great and the service was outstanding. They also have a full bar- My group had the hamburger, it was excellent. The crab cake dinner-this got rave reviews from the person who ordered it-and the chicken burrito-not good! The chicken burrito was beautifully presented-but the actual product had mostly rice-a little beans-and almost no CHICKEN!! So definitely DO NOT order this- I mentioned this to the hostess,and she said"I wish you would have let us know-we would have gotten you another one" so we will never know,unfortunately! This group will probably not be back here again...that is why only rated 4 stars. I hope other customers have a better experience! read more

Good local place, sat outside, dog friendly! My halibut was excellent, the chicken Picatta and filet were good, not great (filet was over cooked). Service was very friendly, but slow, they had to apologize a few times. We do like coming here, supporting a local business, and dog friendly, just not always consistent read more

Food is incredible. Fried green tomatoes, honey lavender cornbread were amazing but the 5855 salad was soooo deliciously flavorful, wasn't expecting that. The skirt steak was a crowd pleaser and the shrimp dish was full of flavor as well. The pecan pie was a table favorite along with key lime, the peanut butter pie however was a little too rich for most read more

Dinner was sooo good highly recommend! We always do the chefs special they sure do know how to cook seafood. read more

I hesitate to let others know how much we absolutely love this place because it will become more crowded. Seriously, this is a great place with very good creative food reasonably priced. We received excellent service from Becca. We are planning to be regulars. Recommend. read more

After having been given a 1 hr wait time at our usual Friday night spot we drifted in to Placida Grill for a plate of delicious fried shrimps, a Hazify beer and perfect service. Hubby's burger was also too notch. Will definitely go again. A hidden gem in a cool calm setting! Thanks! read more

This is a place where you can say don't judge a book by its cover. Outside it looks like a true whole in the wall. When you enter while it's not fancy, the bar atmosphere on a Friday was lively. The staff and service was wonderful and attentive. I was pleasantly surprised by The food it was delicious. The drinks were great. Good selection. We will definitely be back. read more

Awesome food and service. Please consider adding sound attenuation--the large dining room is painfully loud.

Been here a few times. Had great experiences before but tonight was off. High season caused a half hour wait for kitchen to catch up even though it was half empty. Sat and ordered shrimp and grits and was disappointed. Too much sauce, spicy in the wrong way, and large shrimp tasted fishy, plus service was only ok. Friends set the shrimp aside as well. Very different than our first few trips. I'm sure we'll try again but will be less certain recommending it again. read more

Love, love this restaurant. Never disappoints. Specials are good, regular items are delicious. My favorite is the chicken scampi. I don't eat shrimp so I was excited to try this. Amazing! My husband loves the arugula steak salad. Everything is good here. read more

I'm not overly picky. I had a small group that went on a Friday evening. Everything was very "okay". Too expensive for what you get, food was fine, service was okay, booth seats were kind of narrow, and the environment was a bit loud. Didn't hate it, but didn't love it. read more

We went to Placida Grill to celebrate a friend's birthday. We had 6:30pm reservation and were seated seconds after walking thru the door. I had a delicious lemon drop martini and the fish special of the evening. My dinner was soooo good and my friends also enjoyed their meals. Our server, Beth, was gracious and attentive. I highly recommend if you're looking for a delicious chef inspired dinner with attention to detail. read more

Best pizza around and so happy it's on west entrance of rotonda. Now if they would deliver!

Great food and wonderful service. We are outside and enjoyed seafood and great drinks. The fish and chips were a favorite of the kids!

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Highly recommend the fish and chips and killer shrimp. Love their french fries too! Good craft beer and wine selection read more

The food was great and our service was above and beyond. Thank you Karen. The dining area is bright and well lit. I definitely recommend this as a place to go. read more

Service was great. It's a nice place, but the food was just fair. I had the chicken scampi and the pasta was over cooked and the plate lacked seasoning. read more

Love everything about this place except the French fries, they aren't good, to greasy and dark not good

Don't pay attention to the old reviews you see. I did and it kept me from dining here for quite some time. Friends invited us out for dinner and said we needed to give Placida Grill a try. I'm so happy we did. The food was delicious and the service was great. It's a much cuter place on the inside than what it looks on the outside. Reservations are preferred. You can make them by calling the restaurant. Looking forward to going back. read more

I love this restaurant. It is consistently delicious food and the service is fantastic. Favorite restaurant in this area

i have never had a bad meal here - EVER - and this includes past locations. Everything the chef cooks is well done and the food is much more upscale than the current location suggests. I always get the salmon tostada (sometimes just ask for it simple grilled and it's perfectly cooked) but sometimes get Jerk chicken or a special. They are ALL VERY GOOD. Even if it doesn't sound great on the menu, you will be delighted when you get the food. In my opinion, this is the best restaurant in the area! read more

Omg, this is a must visit place. Had black grouper over mashed potatoes, absolutely amazing. Also, had the skirt steak amazing as well. The killer shrimp is a great appetizer. Yes went back to back nights the food was so good! The crème brûlée is a must have dessert! The staff is very attentive! read more

Wonderful service. Fillet mignon was spot on. Entire staff goes above and beyond. I sat at a high top in the bar area. Would have thought I was seated at the owners table. read more

They have the best fried oysters. All other food is exceptional. Great friendly atmosphere. We prefer the high tops in the barroom.

High Prices! The burrito looks good until you get into it and see about 6 slivers of chicken, some black beans and mostly all rice. Nah!

We enjoyed two fabulous dinners here in the past week. The fish was fresh and delicious and the lime buerre blanc was perfect. An added bonus is the over the top desserts made in house. The owner and staff are very courteous and attentive to every detail. read more

Excellent food service and ambiance. Never get tired of Placida Grill. Not only is the staff friendly and welcoming but the owner Scott also makes you feel at home. A little bit for everyone. I had the amazing Killer shrimp and my friends had the burger which they said was the best. Also a great selection of wines so skip over the house and try the premium. read more
