It came out in the nicest presentation. The food was fresh, the chicken was super juicy and the 2 sides were delicious. I was a member of the clean plate club. Come out and support this local eater.

While at the beach we started to get hungry so me and my princess decided to grab an early dinner after a day of long travel and the hotel receptionist said " go eat outside at the sandbar!" Brianna was our server and was amazing ! She made my little one a Shirley temple which she loved and kept the cold beers coming for me . We ordered shrimp cocktail for appetizers and wings then I decided on the grouper sandwich with a side salad and fries and mini cheeseburger sliders and fries for my little one. We enjoyed our view of the ocean and stayed after we ate and got to see dolphins swimming near by. We will definitely be having lunch here a few more times before we leave. Fish is fresh caught and so good I'm already thinking about dinner lol ! 10/10!

We had drinks to start; my 20 year old and 16 year old had soda. Wife had a Coroner and I have the spicy jalepeno margarita. All was great! We did not get apps, but there are lots of choices. For mains I had the Birria tacos with onion rings. One daughter had the same. Great taste, but if I had to do it over I would get a side of salad or coleslaw as it was a lot of fried on my plate. That said, finished it all! My other daughter had the chicken Cesar salad and loved it. Chicken was very tasty. My wife had the grouper basket. She thought it was tasty and hit the spot. Service was not bad but not great. Just not friendly. Overall a great stop. Be prepared you are outside and if the weather turns you are on the hook. Also, no reservations so first come first serve! Go. Here.

The outdoor bar was the perfect spot to unwind. They also serve food, but I only came for the cocktails. I ordered a lemon drop with Chambord, and let me tell you--the bartender absolutely nailed it! The drink was delicious, and his customer service was even better. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure everyone at the bar was taken care of, even when it got busy. The atmosphere was great, too. The cool breeze made it comfortable despite the summer evening heat, creating the perfect setting to sit back and enjoy a drink. I give the bartender a 20 out of 10! If you're looking for great cocktails, excellent service, and a relaxing outdoor vibe, Kokomos Bar & Grille is definitely worth a visit.

Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Definitely ask for some extra lemon caper butter because you are going to want it. I had the PEPPER CRUSTED HANGER STEAk, TRUFFLED FRIES, BABY SPInach and a mustard SAUCE. The cook on the steak was medium rare and they nailed it. Great flavor even without the sauce. The truffle fries were about perfect -- crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Deb had the CHICKEN ROULADE with WILD MUSHROOM RISOTTO, HARICOT VERTS, MUSTARD JUS. It had lots of good flavors, especially with the mushroom risotto, but the chicken itself was a little dry. I had the Decoy Red Blend and really liked it. My first glass wasn't right, but our server immediately took care of it and they opened a new bottle. That's good service. We somehow found room for both the tiramisu and key lime cheesecake. Both were delicious, although the almost-empty cheesecake plate probably tells you which one we liked best. Really good food, excellent service and a much better dinner than we expected from a resort restaurant. We'd definitely eat here again. Flip Flop Rating: 4.5/5 but Yelp doesn't allow .5 so will go 4 but it is really close.

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!

I had a grouper sandwich blackened and on second trip the 3 kings meal of scallops, shrimp, and grouper but Caribbean jerk. When it comes to grouper, you really don't taste the fish, which can be a good thing. You are tasting the spice. The jerk is slightly over salty but somewhat expected. The crab fries are also amazing. For the uniqueness 100% order it. I also loved their jalapeno hush puppies, sweet and not spicy. You can tell by our multiple trips we ordered half the menu. It's a solid first stop destination for sure Loved the staff, atmosphere, music, and the view. It's a must go to spot for sure!

We were told they were nominated for Best Breakfast, and I can confidently say it is **100% well deserved**. I absolutely love everything about this place--from the beautiful decor and friendly atmosphere to the incredible staff, huge selection of food, and, most importantly, the quality of everything we've ordered. Everything is made to order and absolutely delicious. From breakfast to lunch to dinner, every meal has been excellent! We were especially lucky to have been taken care of by some truly wonderful people. Travis served us on our first night and immediately made us feel comfortable and right at home. He was incredibly friendly and gave us some fantastic food recommendations. Sarah was also amazing and went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly to our liking. Isabel was another wonderful server who made our experience even more enjoyable. **Briana and Dave were also fantastic and provided such great service, making each visit even more enjoyable.** And we can't forget Robert over at the Bloody Mary bar! He made my husband and me some of the most delicious Bloody Marys, piled HIGH with incredible bites like grilled cheese, fried chicken, and bacon. They were almost a meal in themselves! As far as must-tries go, you **have to** try the Cinnamon Bun French Toast, any of their omelets, the burgers, the Blackened Grilled Chicken Bacon Swiss & Ranch sandwich, the Cuban, the Southwest Egg Rolls, and of course, their amazing French fries. If you're staying at Sandpearl or anywhere in the area, **do yourself a favor and stop at Clear Sky Café.** The food, service, atmosphere, and people make this place truly special. We're already looking forward to coming back!

Salty's Review…read more Stopped in for lunch shortly after arriving in Clearwater since we were hungry and it was conveniently located right across the street from the Opal Sands Resort. When we arrived, the hostess initially tried to seat us in direct sunlight even though there were several shaded tables available. I asked if we could sit in the shade instead, and she happily accommodated us. Our waitress appeared to be the only server working, yet she did an excellent job keeping up with all of her tables. She was attentive, friendly, and provided great service throughout our meal. We started with the coconut shrimp, which were perfectly crispy and delicious. The only odd thing was that they were served on a bed of rice, which didn't really make sense with the dish. We also ordered the grouper po' boy, and it was huge with well-seasoned, flavorful fish. The crab cakes, however, were a disappointment. They were heavily seasoned with Old Bay to the point that it overpowered the crab. I actually had to scrape off the top layer of seasoning just to enjoy them. For drinks, I ordered an IPA, and we also tried the Strawberry Smash that our waitress recommended. Unfortunately, the cocktail was the weakest part of the meal. It tasted more like club soda with muddled strawberries and mint than an actual mixed drink, and it was surprisingly difficult to drink through the straw. Overall, Salty's is a solid spot if you're looking for a casual meal that's convenient and satisfying. The service was excellent, and a couple of the food items really stood out, but nothing we ordered was memorable enough that I'd go out of my way to come back. I'd recommend it for a quick bite, just don't expect to be blown away.
