    Decent size tuna steak sandwich the buns suck though
    Eva P.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decent food and service- huge selection on the menu with an amazing view of the beach.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The elevators were not working so you do have to go up a flight of stairs. Only one bathroom..

    View is not bad...
    Rob B.

    Stopped by The Brass Monkey on a Sunday afternoon in PAG to watch a little football and grab some food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is always lively with all sorts of football fans, especially Ravens.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have quite a few things on their menu and all we have tried are very good. Menu definitely lean towards dishes with a crab base. This time we tried a pizza and a turkey Reuben sandwich and both were phenomenal. Service at the bar is always top-notch and the bartenders and wait staff are extremely friendly and outgoing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Just an all-around great atmosphere and experience every time we go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the location on the beach with the views of the Gulf are hard to beat![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Crab skins
    Mia L.

    Excellent place to stop in for a bite to eat on the beach. Extensive menu, full of seafood, lots of interesting crab dishes. The crab skins were to die for! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wonderful view from the outdoor patio - rooftop view of the beach.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great service. Highly recommend.

    Stopped here for lunch. Quick stop across the street from the beach. Not too busy during the week. Took a bit to order and receive the food. Ordered the turkey club. Sadly didn't have much to it. Thin pieces of turkey, bacon was pretty hard. Crab dip was decent - not much artichoke to it.

    Tuna Sandwich
    Brennan S.

    The Brass Monkey is a fantastic beachfront American restaurant in beautiful Pass a Grille! My friend's tuna sandwhich was the knockout! The portion of tuna was commendable, and it tasted so good- packed with flavor! My chicken salad wrap was amazing, too! The chicken salad was flavorful, tender and smooth with an impressive chicken:wrap ratio. The view on the outdoor patio is mesmerizing- we loved watching the sunset while we finished dinner. The service was equally fantastic, our waitress was upbeat, friendly and attentive.

    Ahi Tuna Appetizer - Rub is fantastic
    Ryan C.

    Finally made our way down to Pass-a-Grille beach and to this piece of Maryland here in Florida. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Although it was chilly we chose to dine outside to enjoy the views of the beach and gulf.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good and prompt. Worked our way around the menu and liked everything we tried. Suggest getting something with Crab Dip as it was quite good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you're sensitive to weather there is an inside section with more than a few tables and a bar as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Didn't take any photos inside but if you're from Maryland you will certainly feel at home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will be back

    Sunset view

    10" pepperoni pizza
    Lauren R.

    Nice beach spot if you're looking to go into a restaurant and sit rather than eat at the beachside cafe. Themed out in Baltimore Ravens (I think?) and all bar grille atmosphere. Crab everything was delicious and really generous portions. The service was friendly but a little slow. Which is probably okay for a laid back beach spot. If you're looking to get out of the sun and grab a good meal, I definitely recommend.

    Cheese pizza
    Christine C.

    Friday afternoon on scooters and stopped in here. Located upstairs- there is a fantastic view of the beach. The menu has a great variety and what we chose hit the spot! Our waiter was the bartender as well- very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend when you need a bite on your beach day.

    I'll lead with my concluding comment from my dinner last night: "I think this is the best snapper…read moreI've ever eaten." (As a Florida resident, I've had quite a lot!) Snappers was packed at 6:30pm on a Tuesday night. However, as it was late July, we were able to get a table outside right away. There are fans to help with the heat, and it's well ventilated so there was a nice breeze. Our server was prompt and friendly. The menu was seafood with an Asian flair. We started with the crab stuffed portobello (probably the weakest part of the meal) and delicious coconut shrimp. After that, our entrees came with salads, which were also great (tortilla chips and a zesty dressing made it more fun than your usual house salad, but it didn't feel too decadent). I got the snapper, which was served over coconut rice and with a delicious curry sauce and mango chutney. The curry reminded me more of thinner Japanese curry versus Indian or Thai, which I loved. The snapper itself was a nicely-sized piece and was cooked/seasoned perfectly with a hint of spice. The coconut sticky rice was so addictive!! The sweetness of the mango chutney just made each bite a wonderful flavor explosion. I would 100% recommend this dish. My husband got the coconut cashew crusted mahi, which was also excellent (and another huge portion of fish). It seems like you can't go wrong here with a fish dish!

My family and I had such a great experience, and I'd easily give it a 9/10 for the food, service, and ambiance. Even though it was a rainy day and only indoor seating was available, it didn't take away from the experience at all. The restaurant has windows throughout, so no matter where you're seated, you still get gorgeous views of the water. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure guests have a great experience. Another thing I appreciated was that the food is made fresh to order, and the seafood tasted exceptionally fresh. We started with the Kung Pao Calamari, and wow...I honestly could've eaten the entire plate myself! It was packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and easily one of the best appetizers I've had in a while. For my entrée, I ordered the Maine Lobster Roll, and it was outstanding--fresh, buttery, and loaded with lobster. I paired it with the plantain mashed potatoes, which completely surprised me. I wasn't sure what to expect, but they were absolutely delicious and something I'd order again without hesitation. My refreshing Peach Margarita was the perfect complement to the meal. Around the table, the Fish & Chips and the Grouper BLT were both big hits. The only small critique is that the hush puppies were a little overdone. Aside from that, everything was flavorful and thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, Buoys delivered an excellent dining experience with fresh food, warm hospitality, and beautiful waterfront views. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in St. Pete!

Johnathan was our server and appeared immediately to take our water preference and go over the specials. While the wine by the glass was ok, they have an excellent wine by the bottle menu with a wide range of prices. We had a delicious bottle of French Bordeaux and the fresh bread was beautifully presented, it was giving diagonal slices baguette with an Olive Garden breadstick style salty topping. The appetizers all sounded amazing and we were told the steak carpaccio was a must have. We started with that, the scallops and the crab cake. Everyone in our party (we had some college kids) were trying carpaccio and crab cakes for the first time and all absolutely loved them. Everything was seared, cooked or presented to perfection. Course two we split a few Cesar salads; nice chilled bowls and fair portions to share amongst the table. I know a Cesar seems boring, but a perfectly dressed and cold salad is such a nice lead in to a hot steak. We did a few sliced filets for the table with the Mac n cheese, pasta w/princess sauce and Brussel sprouts. The sprouts were incredible, we did them without bacon and they were cooked and crispy with a slight spicy honey flavor. The Mac n cheese was creamy and decadent and a good portion. Steak was PERFECT; sliced as desired, cooked to exact temperatures ordered (Mr & M) and had such a good crust and cut like butter. Needless to say we didn't make it to dessert, but we hear the bananas foster was to die for. They have perfectly mastered modern, new age trendy and dark and moody inside. It felt right for a family, a date night or even a solo dinner at the bar. They have a main dining room, a moody bar and some low bar tables that have a mix of cocktail lounge and ladies glamorous evening out vibes. We will 100% be back

The outside looks like an old…read moretrailer and the inside is like taking a step back in time as far as design and decor go, but it was honestly sort of charming in a weird way. We had a 7 PM reservation, but got there about 30 mins early and the hostess was able to seat us immediately. Turns out the hostess was also our server and she immediately grabbed us waters and drinks. She was such a pleasure and both her and what I assume was either the manager or the owner both stopped by several times throughout the meal to touch base. We started with the drunken shrimp appetizer and a half a dozen oysters. The shrimp appetizer tasted great. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. We wished it came with more than two small crostinis for 6 shrimp, but we solved that problem by using the complimentary dinner rolls to sop up the rest of the sauce. The oysters are shucked fresh to order, but let me tell you they were some of the biggest freshest oysters we've enjoyed since moving to Florida 10 years ago. For dinner, I got the wild caught salmon with wild rice and broccolini and my husband ordered the fish special of blackened swordfish over beet risotto with a vegetable medley. Both were amazing and we cleaned our plates. We finished with a key lime pie and a lemon raspberry cheesecake which our server informed us were homemade daily by a sweet old lady named Glenna who owns her own local bakery. In fact, we learned the restaurant even sources all of their fish caught fresh by a local fisherman. We thought that was so cool because we love supporting our local St Pete businesses. Highly recommend giving this place a go if you're in SPB!

There were hardly any cars or people sitting outside. Then a server opened the door...and at around 7pm we found the spot kinda empty. Good or bad sign? They sat us down and looked at the menu. It looked good but didn't see much variety. It was much higher type of seafood dishes and beef options. We did come here bc of a reservation so we went further. We chose the mussels in a tomato sauce as appetizers to begin. We ordered the Pinot Grigio and unfortunately I had to send mine glass back bc it just wasn't a good wine. Had to ask for more bread bc you can't give me mussels with a great sauce and not use bread to finish it. They were good size mussels. We shared the entree which was the seafood pappardelle pasta in a cream sauce which had lobster, shrimp, and scallops. The sauce was good but they must have salted the pasta a bit too much which def made the dish richer. The service was good, but for the prices here you'd expect something more since the server did not know about the sauces and how things were prepared. Kinda of a bummer when she had to go back to the chef to ask. But it seemed everything was just higher in price. Overall it was ok. Just for the prices, you expect the food to be exceptional. Things just didn't align.

The Chicken Wings ($13.89 for 6 pieces) were outstanding and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. They were definitely my favorite dish of the meal. We also tried the Shrimp-N-Grits ($27.97), which was a unique combination of Argentine red shrimp, creamy cheese grits, sausage, tomatoes, scallions, and other ingredients. It was flavorful and different from anything we've had before. The Jambalaya ($21.93) was just okay. It had plenty of ingredients, but it was a little too salty for my taste.
