    Fried snapper with rice
    Melly T.

    We stayed at the JW Marriott for 4 nights and ended up eating here twice because their food was really good. I personally loved their Shrimp Tempura Sushi - deep fried seaweed stuffed with rice and topped with shrimp tempura and their sauce. It's rather pricey at $25 for 2 especially when you can order the same shrimp tempura (I think it was their Rocking Shrimp) for almost the same price and you'll get 5-6 decent sized shrimps. We also loved their dumplings. For entree, we really like the deep fried snapper. The sauce was rather tangy, almost mustard like. We switched the Peruvian potatoe purée for rice instead. Service was good. Shout out to Sebastian who took really good care of us. My hubby thinks their Pina Colada tasted better than the ones we get from the beach services. Ambience - amazing view of the ocean. We saw a manatee swam while we were eating.

    I mean do you see that view?? I could be drinking water alone and still give this an A+. But the bartender was super friendly and kind enough to see the sun in my eyes and lower the shades just enough. He was cheerful and welcoming. I got the Strawberry Basil Collin's and it was super yummy. The fresh strawberry puree was he after bonus. Decent prices for such a high class atmosphere too!! I've paid much more in California.

    A Perfect Final Night in Clearwater I chose this spot for our last dinner in Clearwater, and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the moment you pull up to valet, you're wrapped in genuine hospitality. The warm welcome in the lobby and friendly greeting from the hostess set the tone right away. Carmen checked us in and let us know the wait would be about five minutes. I asked if we could sit by the window to enjoy the view, and without hesitation, she said it wouldn't be a problem. Before seating us, she personally inspected the table to make sure it was spotless--such a nice touch. Within minutes, we were seated, and our server Gigi came by to introduce herself. She was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially when I couldn't decide on what to order. My husband had the Lomo Saltado, I went with the Grouper (which they gladly swapped from rice to Yuca fries--no problem at all), my mother-in-law enjoyed the Salmon Bowl, and my 9-year-old had the shrimp stir fry. I usually never finish my meals, but this time, I cleaned my plate! Every part of the experience--food, ambiance, view, drinks, and service--was a 10/10. If you're planning a visit, do yourself a favor and make a reservation around 6:45-7:00 PM to catch the breathtaking sunset. You won't regret it. Enjoy!

    Teriyaki salmon on top of jasmine rice noodles avocado & cucumber
    Anthony M.

    The food and services was good no issues or problems. Our orders came in at the same time since it was a party of 7. Atmosphere is casual & relaxing, along nice view of the water of the 11th floor. The teriyaki salmon with jasmine rice was excellent along with the lamb burger with Yuca fries etc. would recommend if staying here at the hotel.

    Fake entry to an existing restaurant
    Dre G.

    What was advertised as a speakeasy fell short of anything but a speakeasy it was only an exit entryway to the same existing restaurant which you could've walked in on the other side there was no ambience. The service was extremely poor. The drinks not that good at all, the total disappointment was the fact that it was advertised as a speakeasy night last night and it was not even that in fact, the staff said don't blame me. I only work here. It was an extreme disappointment. If it ever pops up again don't go. It's a waste of time. this is the first time I've ever given such a low rating and unfortunately, I will not change it because it was a complete disappointment.

    Charred edamame
    Vanessa T.

    Absolutely delicious food and cocktails! We loved the charred edamame which was topped with a delicious soy drizzle and some really interesting seasoning. The chicken bao was out of this world (soft, crunchy, sweet, savory, creamy, etc) AND it comes with fries. This is at the JW so you already know the service is impeccable! The views are gorgeous. We sat along the glass railing but there are plenty of seating options like one very large center table perfect for group dinners and a really cool corner table I have to book next time for the 180 degree view!

    Best tasting drink ever! It's called a froza
    Darius B.

    So me and my wife are went here for a pre birthday celebration. We had drinks we didn't have the time to eat but the food did look rather good so we will have to go back so stay tuned in for that review but let me add that the atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing it was very relaxing

    Tony C.

    What a great find! Its actually kinda hard to find a restaurant that has great water views and great food. Who would have thought a latin/asian fusion place would be so awesome! It is located at the top of the JW Marriott ion Clearwater Beach. Service was great. Water glass was full the entire time. The food was very good! We started with the steeet corn. A unique flavor for sure. I had the chimi filet. Meat was tender over an exquisite bed of mashed potatoes served with a mini side wedge salad. The desert was awesome as qell. Cant beat the view as well. Highly recommend

    We were a bit confused about the entry to the restaurant, it is casual ambience, however the food was great and delicious. Our waitress Racheal was very nice and friendly It is for sure end of the bay Spectacular view .

    More sushi tacos
    Brian S.

    A dinner date here was a delight - the combination of Peruvian & Japanese sushi style was so delicious and unique like we've never had before. The sushi taco's were next level, as was the shrimp and drinks, gyoza, etc. the vibe is upscale despite being by the pool but the pool & view of the ocean made it very relaxed

    Tuna poke bowl.
    Brenna L.

    Yum! I ate here both days of my stay. It was super convenient, quick, healthy and delicious. Plus very good service!

    Pork Dumplings
    Michelle M.

    The rooftop restaurant, The Deep End, at the JW Marriott on Clearwater Beach is absolutely fantastic!!! The handcrafted cocktails and innovative food are absolutely delicious and you can't beat the water views from the 11th floor! The restaurant overlooks the pool at the JW so the atmosphere is very fun and casual. My husband visited The Deep End every night of our trip for a nightcap and appetizer. I had the pleasure of having lunch here and I can see why my husband enjoyed this restaurant so much. My Frozen Pisco Sour was one of the best cocktails I have had. I don't usually order frozen cocktails because they are usually too sweet, but my cocktail was nice and tart! It was perfect in the sweltering heat! Our spicy charred edamame and pork dumplings with fried seaweed garnish were fantastic. The star of the show were my ahi tuna bao tacos. They fish was fresh, the buns were light and airy, and the sriracha aioli gave the "tacos" a nice spicy kick. I had the choice of yuca fries or seaweed salad and opted for the fresh and salty seaweed salad. There is a kid's menu with burgers and chicken tenders so feel free to bring the kiddos. Our toddlers loved their chicken and fries and our waitress was so sweet to our boys and was kind enough to bring them plastic straw cups of apple juice while my husband and I enjoyed our adult beverages. The only negative remark I can make about The Deep End is that there is no air conditioning in this open air restaurant. There are fans in the restaurant, but I was melting in the July afternoon heat. I did stop by during the evening and the temperature was much more pleasant!

    View is great
    Paige R.

    The espresso martini with the sea salt caramel foam was so delicious! The view of Clearwater is beautiful

    Great views of the water and bridge

    This place was genuinely incredible. I took my girlfriend here for our 1 year anniversary because I…read moresaw it on maps and it sounded good, and we both love seafood. I found the restaurant while I was still deciding on what hotel we were going to stay at and then just so happened to choose the Wyndham Grand (which was also amazing but that's a different story). I was very pleasantly surprised to see them hand us a discount card at check in which got us 10% off on our meal here - even better! I booked us an outdoor table at 5 pm hoping we'd have a perfect view of the sunset. And, well, the attached pictures speak for themselves! It was really gorgeous, beautiful atmosphere and our waiter was great. The meal started with some complimentary edamame which is always a plus. My girlfriend ordered the scallops which were so good, as well as an order of sashimi which is not my personal preference but she was visibly in heaven. I ordered a spicy tuna roll and two kamikaze rolls which were specifically recommended by our waiter (although to be honest I would've ordered it anyway - shrimp tempura and spicy lobster, it doesn't get better than that). No exaggeration, it was the best sushi roll I've ever had. If I go back, I'm just going to order three of them and call it a night. Long story short, I was optimistic about this place but didn't really know what to expect, and it managed to exceed all expectations. Very glad I chose this for our anniversary dinner, thanks for making it so special Ocean Hai!

If you've ever wandered around Japan hunting for late-night comfort food, you know exactly what I mean. The ramen was good, but definitely a little more "American remix" than traditional Tokyo or Okinawa style. A few extra toppings felt that were add because some one "didn't get enough for the cost". Also, the spicy ramen wasn't not spicy at all -- but still flavorful and enjoyable. The restaurant itself was spotless, and the decor was incredible. Great atmosphere without trying too hard. Overall, a really great experience, and we'll definitely be back.

    We were looking for a place where we could watch the sunset, so we were really excited to eat here…read more We had a reservation for 7:45 PM, but when we arrived it was raining, so they had to move everyone inside. We weren't seated until around 8:20 PM. The restaurant was extremely busy. They had a separate gluten-free menu which was nice. Once we were seated, it took a while for our waitress to come over, but we understood because of how crowded it was. Unfortunately, when she did come to the table, she seemed extremely rushed and it came across a little rude. I had several questions about gluten-free precautions, and every time I asked something she quickly said "yes" without really explaining. We ordered the Millionaire Bacon, oysters and the octopus as appetizers since both were listed on the gluten-free menu. I specifically explained that both needed to be prepared gluten-free. On the menu, it even notes in parentheses what needs to be removed to make certain dishes gluten-free. When the appetizers arrived, I noticed the octopus still had the red sauce that the menu said must be removed. I stopped our waitress as she rushed by, and she quickly said it was gluten-free and walked away. My husband had just put some in his plate when the server, who had brought the food out, came back and asked if we had eaten any yet because it had not been made gluten-free. He immediately took it back and returned with a gluten free one. When I mentioned it to our waitress, though, she kind of just shrugged it off. For dinner, I had the seafood bowl, and my daughter, who also eats gluten-free, had the salmon with potatoes au gratin. My son and his girlfriend got sushi, and my husband had the fish Clearwater style. Everything looked great when it came out, and I double-checked that my meal was gluten-free. The server confirmed it was. Overall, the food tasted really good. The only issue was my daughter's potatoes au gratin there was so much grease pooled on top that she ended up not eating it because they were basically inedible and her salmon was over cooked and had zero seasoning. Overall, our meal was good. The restaurant was packed, and we were disappointed that we missed the chance to sit outside and watch the sunset, but that was obviously due to the rain and not the restaurant's fault.

This falls on management and I have known this since I was 14. Food should generally be served from the guest's left side using the server's left hand.
