    Drink Menu

    Went for early Valentines lunch and was not disappointed! The staff were courteous and love the new decor! The food was so good there was no need for Togo boxes!! Complimentary bread was amazing, as the meals! Definitely will go again! Prices were reasonable too!

    Shrimp Scampi

    Ordered wine on happy hour from open to 6:30. Great service! Got bread to the table. Apps: bruschetta / calamari. Ordered: shrimp scampi / ragu / vodka pasta. Yummy.

    Side Caesar Salad
    Lyn P.

    Tried the new rebranded Italian flare at the former Shrimp Boat. They have some of the old faves on the menu but some I will miss like the Chateaubriand and Lobster Bisque. Actually I was bummed there was no soup choice so I had a Caesar Salad instead. The Filet Mignon was flavorful and tender and the honey walnut green beans were the best green beans I've ever had! I tried the Chocolate Mousse ice cream without the Expresso and it was good. I ordered a Chicken Limone to go and I really enjoyed it! Nikki was very attentive! They have some kinks to work out but overall I was pleased.

    Food was tasty. I had filet mignon and wife had stuffed flounder. We had a side salad which was good and we liked the bread. We also had the cheese sticks as an appetizer and they were absolutely fantastic. Filet was tender and delicious but very small. Description said it was 8 ounces, but didn't seem to me. My complaint was the bottle of wine we purchased. The wine was good however I feel like they are a little bit price gouging on it. They charged $44 and you can buy this wine at retail level for around $13. Normally restaurants usually only double the wine price.

    Lemon drop martini

    Nice Lil cozy spot & perfect for a romantic date night. Very dim lightning & I thought it was closed from the way the outside looked. But cute & I enjoyed my lemon drop martini. Next timeI will try some food.

    Lobster bisque and roll.

    I have been here many times, bragged on them as matching Berns for their beef quality and even treated friends to dinner here. I was so disappointed tonight. My waiter forgot the standard bread basket. Finally the second server I asked brought it for him . The châteaubriand.was more sirloin in texture and most of the potato cubes didn't make it to the blender for whipping. I saw the waiter when he took my order and not again until I was done with the meal. I was going to get a desert to bring home but now my trust is badly damaged, so I skipped it.

    SALMON A LA MEUNIERE
    Krista H.

    We were searching for somewhere to eat after our usual placed closed early. We decided to give this place a try. We were seated right away & ordered a few drinks. My Mom liked hers but mine tasted off (even she thought so). They were good about it & fixed it somehow but it came back tasting much better. My parents both ordered from the 3 course menu & I went with the salmon a la Meunière. It was delicious & I had enough for lunch the next day. The bread was very tasty too. We sat next to a couple that had been coming to the restaurant for decades & told us all about their history and how they come from Plant City to eat there. They were great company. The only downside was how rushed the waiter seemed. At times he seemed to leave the table before you had even finished ordering. I think it was because it was the end of the night. I'm sure we'll be back to try other selections now that we've found it.

    Grilled Salmon
    Stephanie M.

    Super disappointing experience at the shrimp boat. Service was rather slow, drinks took almost 20min to come out. We were told it was way busier than normal on a Tuesday, however the restaurant didn't seem very booked. The bisque was really gross, and after not eating it, the waiter didn't even ask if there was anything wrong with it. The specialty margarita was pretty gross as well, made with cheap tequila. The bread smelled better than it tasted, but probably the best part of the meal. The salmon with Brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes was overly fishy, potatoes were flavorless and lumpy, and the Brussel sprouts tasted mayonnaisey. Probably won't be back, this just didn't hit the mark in any capacity.

    We've been to Jerusalem Grill probably four times by now. Enough, that the staff already recognized…read moreus this last time . And let's start there. The staff are so friendly and down to earth. Kind people. I love that. The place itself is inviting and feels extremely unique. It was setup and decorated with care. You walk in and you're in a different place. You forget you're in a shopping center and that this is a storefront restaurant. The mint tea lemonade drink they serve...? DO NOT think twice about trying it. I'm not usually one for minty stuff, but this drink is absolutely phenomenal. What about the food, you ask...? Well, this is officially my place in all of Tampa Bay to eat Mediterranean food. And I've tried many that are absolutely delicious. But Jerusalem beats them all out. The meats are truly, expertly cooked, with flavors that give you that food high that leaves you feeling amazing after the meal. But then the sides are equally impressive. Everything down to their salads is fresh and packed with flavor and nuance. I have not had a bad thing on this menu. It's all been amazing. Oh... try their baklava. Not usually big on desserts, but I'll get that again for certain.

We ordered the Sampler so we could try a little bit of the basics on our first time visit. The sampler included hummus, baba ghanouj, falafel and pita - the baba ghanouj was the stand out. Pure deliciousness - just the right amount of garlic. :) We also enjoyed the lentil soup too - the owner came by our table to check in with us and was super excited for us to try it as she let us know she adds cilantro as her special touch. Can't wait to come back and try more delicious Middle Eastern fare at this locally-owned, family-run business.

    At a shopping center in Riverview is Cali. It is very modern looking inside with high top tables…read moreoutside. It has a nice overhang that keeps you cool during the hot weather. The service is amazing. The staff was attentive and helpful. I wish the food was better. I was in the mood for a salad. The first disappointment was that they only gave 3 choices. I am on a gluten free diet and didn't have a problem with that. I did have a problem with the fact that 2 out of 3 salads had cheese in it and is not for someone who adheres to a dairy free diet. Yes, I could have asked if the cheese could be left out. But these salads had multiple kinds of cheese. I never wanted to be that person who asks to leave out half of the ingredients because of dietary restrictions. I would have had to do that. Maybe the answer is the choice to have a custom salad for people like me. The second disappointment was that the salads had a price without any protein. When you added one of the proteins, the salad became very expensive. This was a huge turnoff. The last disappointment was the ice tea. Although there were 3 choices, two of them had ingredients to which I am allergic. The third choice had caffeine. There was really no choice other than to drink water. I chose the restaurant because it was midway between us and friends. I looked at ratings and the number of stars when I travel out of town. This was not really what I expected.
