Well done burger--I order Medium Greasy burnt chips

I was so disappointed as I have eaten here prior to Hurricane Helene and the food was Chef's kiss--unfortunately, although there has been restaurant restoration the food preparation has not been restored. I received the e 1/2 pound Wagu burger well done--I ordered it Medium and the chips were greasy and overcooked as well. Looked like they had been sitting in the drip bin for quite some time. My order was to-go so inspection was not done until I arrived home ( I trusted and did not verify) I won't worry about doing this again Tate Island Grill--my money will go elsewhere. Only one star because zero is not allowed

Grouper protein bowl

Perfect place to enjoy lunch on the beach. Good drinks, food, service, and scenery of the Gulf. Also fun to people watch!

Silver margarita
Emma M.

Love this spot right on the beach. The impossible burger was delicious and so are the silver margaritas. Came back twice during our vacation! Great ambiance and service.

The salmon and grouper were delicious. Veggies were steamed to perfection. The view of the beach was really nice and we were lucky to go on a day when the weather was gorgeous. Service was decent and friendly. FYI, you can valet park at the hotel even if you don't stay there if you are eating at the restaurant or going to the spa (0-3 hours is free) and the restaurant will validate your parking to get $5 off($25/day) if you stay all day. We didn't know this initially so we had already paid for all day parking elsewhere but my parents moved their vehicle to the valet and it saved them a lot of money on parking.

Hummus & Virgin Pina Colada
Han P.

Loveeeee it here. I definitely come here pretty often. The hummus is my favorite anywhere, such a peaceful place to eat on the beach. The servers are also always kind and helpful.

Beach view

I was on vacation and checked out Tate's. Pros - The service is excellent. Our waiter was constantly checking in to make sure we had drinks and informed of when food was coming etc - The views are beautiful. As you can see in my picture, I would highly recommend checking this place out as the sun went down. - Food was solid, more bar foodie than one would hope for because it is pricey (expected though for touristy location) - Drinks were delicious. Cons - getting in the place was a hassle. don't walk in from the beachside unless you know exactly where to go because it was rough. Go through the front of you can.

Caribbean Grouper Sandwich
Nicolas L.

My wife and I visited Tate Island Grill for a coinvent dinner while staying at the Sandpearl Resort. I had the Caribbean Grouper Sandwich. A soft bun was filled with meaty but slightly dry grouper (I could not taste any Jerk seasoning), sweet overly syrupy Mango-Pineapple Chutney and plantain chips. Overall, very average food, only worth visiting if you are staying at the Sandpearl for a quick and convenient meal.

Chocolate Cake! Not made in house. It was good enough for a sweet tooth fix, lol
Melinda S.

I typically do not eat at hotel restaurants, lol! We ordered the Grilled Grouper Cesar Salad. Quesadillas. Chocolate Cake. Key Lime pie. The salad was excellent! Fresh grilled grouper on top of a Cesar salad (+dressing was delicious). The chicken quesadillas were a generous portion, traditional style, served with sour cream only. We ordered the nachos so we could get the guacamole to eat with it. ALL of it was very good, we would definitely eat there again. The desserts were showy but nothing extra. They are not made in house so they definitely tasted commercial. They were good enough to fix a sweet tooth. We definitely enjoyed the chocolate cake more than the key lime. Cute outdoor seating area, a sophisticated beachy vibe probably because it is part of the SandPearl Resort. Lovely lunch, lovely location, definitely worth going back.

Tarpon chicken wrap
Emily W.

Just expanded their menu and there are some great choices. Everything is fresh and the chips have a super flavorful seasoning. A little overpriced but no complaints because service, quality, and vibe are all up to standards.

Fresh Berry, Fruit, & Yogurt bowl, Tates Island Grill, SandPearl Beach Resort, Clearwater Beach

Tate Island Waterfront Grill is located right on the beach at the SandPearl Beach Resort in Clearwater Beach and offers Seafood, Wraps, Salads, Sandwiches, Frozen Cocktails, Beer, Margaritas, Mojitos, Wines by the Glass, and kids meals with an amazing view of the beach, and the resort's pool. You can enjoy your drinks or meal in a padded lounge chair poolside, at the restaurants outdoor patio, or inside the restaurant with air conditioning which is a nice break on a hot day. Valet Parking is $23 at the SandPearl Resort for 3 hours but you get $10 off with validation from dining at Tates Island Grill or you can park at the garage across the street for $3 per hour. The fruit plate appetizer came with a vanilla yogurt and a surprisingly large amount of seasonal fruit including Blueberries, honeydew melon, cantaloupe and pineapple! The pineapple and honeydew melon were both sweet but the cantaloupe was not. 8/10 The grilled chicken Quesadillas came packed with tons of cheddar jack cheese and sides of salsa and sour cream but was missing guacamole and black beans or any other side. Do not order this if you're hungry as it is not that filling. 7/10 The Causeway Caesar salad topped with blackened Ora king salmon came with a good amount of veggies and a generous cut of salmon with it. The blackening season had a nice flavor! 9/10 The Grouper Sandwich came with a generous portion of blackened grouper, lettuce, tomato, tater sauce, and a side of chips for no up-charge. 9/10 The Pina Colada Cocktail came frozen with bacardi black rum, cream of coconut, and pineapple juice and was the real star of the day! 10/10 The Blue Pearl Cocktail is Tate Island Grill's signature cocktail and came frozen with bacardi black rum, creme De banana, coconut, and blue curacao swirl. It's a cool looking drink but I'd have to recommend the flavor of the Pina Colada over this drink. The curacao didn't mix the best with the coconut. 8/10 It took quite awhile to get our drink, get our food, and close out our bill. It was a bit longer than usual but it was busy and everyone is on island time at the beach. If you're in the Clearwater Beach area, not in a hurry, and looking for some great seafood and nice views of the beach and susnet, I highly recommend checking out Tates Island Grill, although it is a bit more expensive than other options on the beach but it has more of an upscale feel!

This is the bar at the Clearwater Beach Marriott Resort. I don't normally drink frozen drinks, but…read morethe frozen margarita is a most. I also had the spicy marg which was perfect ( I upgraded since I don't drink Cuervo). I also highly recommend the fries, sweet potato fries and wings.

This is a great bayside bar & grille located in the Clearwater Beach Marriott Resort on Sand Key…read more Sunrise can be seen here but sunset must be viewed from across the street. Their menu had some decent options and they were willing to work with us to provide lower carb options. Three stand out servers to mention: Cass & Jason and Kimi. These three were rockstars and made our stay so good! They earned the triple digit tips and were much appreciated! Conversely, and the reason I dropped a star, was Omar. He was a terrible server that was more interested in picking up on the young ladies around the pool than doing his job as a server. If you find yourself in his section consider moving or just go to the bar and get your own food and drinks. He is the sorriest excuse for a server on the planet. He completely ignored my wife and I. We had to come to him to order, not the other way around. At first the bar told us we had to order from him, but I pressed the issue and Brandon let me open a new tab with them. Less convenient, but way better service than Omar. A stand out moment was on Thursday, when they ran out of Deep Eddy Lemon. Cass ensured there was a new bottle the following morning. Likewise on Saturday, they ran out of Deep Eddy Lemon once again. Jason asked if there was any other vodka that would work. I said something to the effect of "no thanks.... I'll just pass." I think he moved mountains to locate another bottle on premises keeping the vacation and vibes flowing. Much appreciation Cass & Jason! Kimi didn't move mountains for us, but she was regularly there for us. On time, on target.

We've been coming to Rusty's Bistro at the Sheraton resort for every holiday, and Thanksgiving here…read morehas become an absolute must for our family. Their Thanksgiving buffet is truly exceptional -- beautifully prepared dishes, delicious flavors, and so many options that everyone walks away happy (and very full!). It's the perfect place if you want a relaxing holiday without the stress of planning, cooking, or cleaning. You just show up, enjoy, and feel taken care of. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming -- it honestly feels like visiting your relatives for Thanksgiving, but with way better food. The staff is a huge part of what makes this place so special. Our server, Alejandro, was amazing as always -- attentive, kind, and genuinely warm. And Alexandra (I believe she's a manager) is absolutely wonderful. She makes you feel welcomed the moment you walk in, incredibly accommodating, and truly goes above and beyond to make the experience perfect. Rusty's Bistro is one of those rare places where the food, the vibe, and the people all come together. If you're looking for a stress-free, delicious, and memorable Thanksgiving, this buffet is the place to be. Highly recommend!

Mother's Day busy but Steve our server gave excellent services. We enjoyed quiet area and good food.read more

We joined the walk up list for clear sky via their website around 11am on a Saturday, and our table…read morewas ready within 10 minutes. We were seated as soon as we arrived, and throughout our visit the service was really good. My friend and I were having a very hard time deciding, and when we asked the server, she flat out told us that the two things we were torn between were awesome and we should order both and split them. We got the shrimp and grits and the lobster Benedict. On their own, the grits weren't anything special, although they were texturally great. Now when you add the shrimp and gravy . . . This dish is a whole other deal. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the gravy was super well balances. It had the perfect level of spice. The lobster Benedict had a perfectly poached egg, and it worked so well. The mornay sauce was a lovely touch. I'd definitely order it again, but I would also definitely order the shrimp again. Long story short, our server was right, they were both amazing. I also got a standard Bloody Mary, which was solid. I would definitely go back to this place. It's got an upbeat, family friendly atmosphere, and I think it's a great spot for locals and out of towners alike. It's also well priced. I'd also love to try their beignets or French toast next time. They've also got a huge lunch/dinner menu that I'd definitely want to try if I were in town for longer.

Went here on day 1 of our vacation in Clearwater on a Wednesday afternoon. Was recommended by a…read morestaff member of the resort we stayed at. Ambience was like your regular breakfast place or diner, but definitely family friendly. We were there with our 8 month old baby boy and felt comfortable. Food tasted pretty okay, we ordered coconut shrimp, fish n chips and chicken tacos for brunch! The fish was a little undercooked and the batter was still a bit wet inside. Other items were not bad. For drinks, I ordered their popular pomegranate mimosa which came really flat (no bubblies) and in a wine glass! I sent it back and got a mojito instead - which tasted a lot better! Additionally, we were not aware the breakfast menu closes at 12 pm and we were already seated, so kind of felt obligated to order from the lunch menu at around 12.05 pm! It was too early for a sea food lunch for us! We saw the table next to us had ordered breakfast just a few minutes before us but we were denied because it was already past noon. Overall a pretty average experience. I was expecting a little more authentic experience but turned out to be just like your local diner.
