Wife and I went in on a Wednesday afternoon, the place was almost empty. Our service was horrible, waiter had an attitude be cause we returned a salad with a footling hair in it. Food was ok but they skipped out on the fish that should have been in the fish tacos, that's a Taco Bell move. Will not be coming back any time soon. read more

I ordered take out today, curbside service and everything was spectacular! All of the food was packaged up very nice. I wish I would have taken time to take a picture. I will the next time I order out because I can't wait to go back. The food was so good! Thank you! read more

I have not often been to a place of such trashery. First of all- how do you burn sautéed salmon. This is debauchery! The building was cold as my asparagus. I wrote a haiku about the Bahama Breeze in Robinson township. Bahama Breeze ew. My salmon was burnt ew gross. Get me out of here! read more

I know it's a chain and people look down on it for that, but I've been very pleased with the flavor of the food and atmosphere. Bonus points for taking reservations. There are some food served here that you can't get many other places in Pittsburgh- with flavors of the Caribbean. I know that the flavors are probably held back somewhat because it is mass produced. Service is usually decent. Drinks are fun but expensive. I really like the kids menus- healthy options and really nice portions. Just the plain grilled chicken is moist and flavorful. The atmosphere (often with live music) can be a fun getaway from the Pittsburgh winter doldrums. read more

Had a wonderful meal at Bahama Breeze. The manager, Victoria, made sure we were seated where requested and couldn't have been nicer. Meal, excellent! And our server, Christen, was so attentive..wore mask properly, taking measures to be sure our environment was clean and sanitized. We appreciated that so much! read more

My girlfriends and I meet regularly in Robinson and Bahama Breeze has been one of our favorites for years. We had our first opportunity to return post-covid last month. We had to wait 45 minutes to sit outside because of a server shortage but once we were seated our server was great - attentive, friendly and efficient. We returned last night and we will never be back based upon the service we received. It started out ok but quickly went downhill. Our food arrived and they didn't notice we had no napkins or utensils; we repeatedly attempted to get our server's attention to order a second round of drinks- even asking the people who delivered our food to ask her to come over - but finally broke down and ordered on the mini kiosk on the table. Nothing arrived...after about 10 minutes we asked and were told they were "being made" (odd response for 2 bottles of beer and a canned seltzer) but we finally received 2 of the 3 drinks. Finally our one friend went up to the bar and found the other beer sitting there. She took it with no one even noticing she was there. When the server finally returned we relayed this and she didn't apologize but just walked away, returning a few minutes later to say her manager would take half off our entrees. Checks came, full price. When we asked why we git new checks with 25% off. Again asking for an explanation the manager appeared. Long story short she was a bit more empathetic but refused to honor the 50%. Despite all of this after cashing out we decided to go get one more drink at the bar (at this point we've been there over 2 hours) but after standing at a mostly empty bar for several minutes the bartender refused to make eye contact with us. When I finally called her over there was no apology or even a smile- instead she said she didn't know why we were standing there!!! We all understand the challenges restaurants and bars are experiencing but cannot excuse a lack of common courtesy. Sadly we'll never return to what for years was one of our favorite meeting spots. read more

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! If you're looking for authentic Caribbean good, you've come to the right place. The theme is so amazing, each booth has different beach type theme with bright colors everywhere you look. It is pricey but totally worth it!! Everyone was so nice and friendly I will be back! read more

Me and my friends were serviced by Dylan during happy hour last week and it was amazing. Drinks and food came fast and we're to die for. Coconut shrimp never fails to amaze me. Dylan left us 3 fully satisfied. So much charm and charisma from that guy. read more

I ordered the seafood paella which has a little bit of everything (shrimp/scallops/mussels/chorizo). It was o.k. in a paint by numbers way. Don't expect the French Quarter here. The Spanish rice was mushy and overcooked. The place has a packaged, touristy feel to it like a Joe's Crab Shack. If I were to go back I'd try a Caribbean dish like jerk chicken. But I'd say that's pretty unlikely. read more

For the price, the food wasn't good. I got the mani tacos. They were bland, the sauce and tortillas tasted like they came off a grocery store shelve. I will not be eating at Bahamas breeze again. read more

Warning! Our party of 4 was told it would be a 15-20 minute wait. After waiting for 20 minutes (no problem. Expected on a Saturday night at a chain restaurant) , we checked in and were told it would be another 45 minutes! There were many empty tables that were apparently "closed." The hostess seemed shocked we were upset-we could have been informed earlier and made the decision to go elsewhere. We wasted valuable time on our way to a performance and ended up having to eat Five Guys in the car. I am beyond disgusted by the incompetence and I will never go back. read more

My mom and I ate at Bahama Breeze in Robinson PA today. Hannah was our server and she couldn't have been more amazing! From anticipating needs before we even knew we needed anything, to just being the kindest and most thoughtful server I'd ever encountered! The food was wonderful and it was Hannah who made our dinner very memorable. She left us a hand written quote that she wrote herself, and almost brought us both to tears- it was SO fitting for my current situation, and it will be framed put on my desk at work as a constant reminder. Way to go Hannah, and thank you so very much for your kindness. The world needs more people like you! read more

Love the food and drink menu. Great acoustic music on the weekends. Love the outdoor area.

This has always been a family favorite for years . But last two times we have been disappointed not so much with the food but the service When we are out to eat I don't want to listen to the waitress complain about who left the dishes there and would like to see her once in a while.

Really like the Caribbean atmosphere. Wasn't too sure about the mac & cheese w/ a deep fried lobster tail, but the lobster ended up being good & tender. The jerk chicken & pasta was lacking mostly chicken although it tasted fine. Really enjoyed the rum flight. Creme brulee good (made fancy by putting in a pineapple ring & using a paper umbrella) read more

At a loss for a new place to explore and write about, Kay and I journeyed to the chain restaurant stronghold of Robinson the other night for the dining choices in this suburban kingdom are multitudinous. If I was to eat at a chain on this evening (and I do so often and somewhat willingly), it was going to be a place that offers the kind of food we don't get much of in Western PA. The decor is as kitschy as a B-52's gig. Giant straw canopies hang from the ceiling. The pillars appear to be made from trees. None of the help looks or sounds as if they hail from the Carribean, but it is likely that some of them spent or will spend a Spring Break there. Billy Ocean didn't drop in. Ben Zephaniah probably wouldn't like the place. Jimmy Buffet might own stock in the franchise. Authentic or not though (and I certainly have my doubts), Bahama Breeze lived up to its namesake in that the food was just easy to like. Our opener was a serving of the Crab Claws St. Thomas. Blue crab is used, the generous amount of tiny claws swimming in a snappy "Island Citrus Butter". A loaf of pillowy "Cuban Bread" comes to the table in a bag (to keep it fresh) for the purposes of soaking up that wonderful butter. The crab claws were fun to eat and required no hardware or labor. You just put them in your mouth and pull that dainty meat off with your teeth. If there were 100 of them, we would have finished them all with extreme prejudice. I so wanted to try Jerk Chicken, but at Bahama Breeze it's served with pasta, which seems so...touristy? Is that the right word? Note #1-One really cool thing Bahama Breeze does is offer a "lighter portion" of many of their dishes, a godsend for those on a diet or on a budget as you get less food and pay a little less. That little perk almost made me order the Jerk Chicken Pasta as well as a few of their other entrees. Being true to my blue-collar, sandwich-loving, Friday-state-of-mind self, I instead ordered a Cuban since I really wanted to try a good one, not a Panera-grade one (see my reviews archive). Lo and behold, it's a dandy and flattened oven-baked Italian hoagie with Swiss cheese in lieu of Provolone, "Cuban" bread in lieu of Italian, pork, and more familiar components in tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise. No pickle or mustard was to be found, however. Not that I minded as this was one hearty yet tidy and planar hero, artfully sliced in half on a bias. Note #2-Another cool thing about Bahama Breeze is their choice of sides. In the case of sandwiches, the choices include mere french fries, a tomato salad, yellow rice with black beans, and my pick; the brisk, fresh, palate-restoring fruit salad. Grapes danced with pineapple chunks in a ramekin as a small scoop of orange sherbet oversaw the affair. Kay's Chicken with Cilantro Crema was good enough, but the mashed potatoes that accompanied it were a symphony of spud, roasted corn, and a trio of cheeses. For dessert, we traded off on the Chocolate Island and the Bananas Supreme. Once again, cultural cred is in question, but the flavors were undeniable. I preferred the mousse/brownie silo that is the Island and the sea of chocolate sauce and vanilla bean anglaise that surrounded it. The Bananas Supreme is Bananas Foster collaborating with that school fundraiser classic, Banana Nutbread. It's warm, there's butterscoth, brandy, and vanilla ice cream involved; it's an effortless winner. Being that this Bahama Breeze is the only one of its kind in this side of the state, it's easy to forget that you're dealing with a chain here. The quality food only helps to further that end. And now...Bad Brains... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2KePzKdYO8&feature=related read more

This was my first visit to Bahama Breeze and I didn't know what to expect. We went on a Saturday night and the place was packed. Believe it or not, they had a 1 hour wait. But that's okay, we managed to find an empty chair in the huge foyer. Turns out that they have the best Piña Coladas ever. I had a Ultimate Piña Colada - swirled with strawberry ice and topped with Myers's Dark Rum and BJ had a couple Red Stripe beers. Yum. The wait time flew by, thanks in part to the island atmosphere and the live island music. The host staff was great. When we were finally seated, we got a huge booth. Our server was pretty sad. I'm not sure what industry she should work in, but definitely not in the service industry. But we managed to get thru okay. We shared a new appetizer on the menu. We got a Crab, Shrimp, Mango and Avocado Stack. It was a little stack of jumbo lump crabmeat, chilled shrimp, fresh avocados and apple-mango salsa layered and stacked; with a spicy honey-red pepper drizzle served on some frisée lettuce. The drizzle was very hot and the seafood was incredibly fresh. We loved it! For dinner, Jim had Calypso Shrimp Linguine. It was spicy shrimp sautéed with garlic, scallions, creole spices and a touch of cream. The portion was huge and very delicious. I had the Jamaican Grilled Chicken Breast with mango glaze, served with fresh mango pineapple salsa, cinnamon mashed sweet potatoes and green beans. Very good. For dessert, we shared a Chocolate Island. It was a chocolate mousse on a fudge brownie in a milk chocolate sauce and vanilla bean anglaise with vanilla ice cream. Very yummy. We loved the restaurant and can't wait to visit again! read more

I love the Breeze, I'm a huge fan of really good black bean soup, no one does it better than the Breeze. They're version is low in fat, vegan, and pretty high in sodium, but so is most restaurant food. A bowl makes a great lite lunch and is rather filling. NOTE* the rest of this review goes back to my pre vegan days. The Breeze has the best shrimp 'n grits this side of New Orleans, I've had shrimp n grits in Bay St Louis, New Orleans, and Shreveport, and you just can't beat the fresh shrimp caught right out of the ocean, but Bahama Breeze makes up for it with tons of cheddar in the grits, lots of butter and cream too. The shrimp are good, not rubbery, they use 21-30 count shrimp and you get quite a bit. The creamy grits, the succulent shrimp, and the spicy coating on the shrimp is like a party in your mouth, it's not always available, the four times I had it, they were part of the nightly specials. When I stopped here for lunch I'd always get a Cuban sandwich. They are big in Florida, it's hard to find them here. Delicious garlic roasted pork, salty ham, creamy swiss cheese, tart dill pickles, spicy brown mustard, all toasted on a pressed cuban loaf. Does that make your mouth water? It does mine! Wash this beauty down with a red ale or pale ale and you'll be thanking me for the rest of your life. Bahama Breeze is one of the better restaurants from the Dardan Restaurant group. read more

We had not eaten at Bahama Breeze in many years. It was a hot summer night and anything with the word Breeze in it sounded good. We started with two rum flights. We ordered two different kinds so we could try more kinds of drinks. I thought I liked rum but that doesn't seem to be the cases. LOL. The drinks were all tasty and they all tasted differently. It was fun to try them all. For dinner I had Shrimp & Grits. Oh My Goodness was it good! There were a lot of shrimp, the green beans were delicious, but WOW did I like the grits!!! They were creamy but still had texture to them. There was bacon that gave the dish a touch of saltiness, but not too salty. It also came with mushrooms but I'm not fungi friendly so I asked to leave them off. It was a great dish and I had a happy tummy. My husband had the Seafood Paella. It was loaded with seafood such as mussels, scallops, and fish. It had a nice flavor and seasoning. The rice was cooked perfectly. It was a great dish. We enjoyed our whole experience-including our service. We will definitely won't wait too long to go back. read more

Terrible. Chain restaurant at its lowest. We ordered the coconut shrimp as an app. It was at our table in literally 90 seconds. While I get that it is nice for the food to be there fast, there is NO WAY that it was an order dropped for us, it had to have been a send back or misring as there is no way they could ring the order, fry them, plate them, and run them. The result was the shrimp, which actually tasted ok, were cool from waiting for us to order them. As for the entrees: the mahi mahi tacos were boring, made with store bought and stale tortillas, and relied on too much crappy salad for the small sliver of fish. The cuban sandwich was even worse, the meat was dry and rubbery. The coconut shrimp were okay though and would have been good if they were hot, and the tomato salad was tasty. Everything else was just crap. read more

I generally avoid rating chain restaurants, but I am obsessed with Bahama Breeze and try to visit one everywhere I go. Usually places that have an "exotic" decor relative to what you're used to are just banking on that, and the food isn't anything special. Well, I've eaten at this BB on three separate occasions, and I've found the food to be consistently delicious, the staff friendly, and the atmosphere delightful. I've been here with a lot of former Disney cast members like myself, and we've all agreed that the way the staff here handles its customers is admirably similar to the Disney standard. It's been a few years since I've been here so I don't really recall what I had to eat besides the onion rings, which were big, juicy, and crispy. I'd love to come back next time I go home to visit. (I currently live in San Diego.) read more

I have never had a bad experience here! Every time everyone is so sweet and attentive. Not to mention the atmosphere- such a great get away from the suburbs I truly feel like I'm in the Florida keys when I am inside this restaurant. I usually get the "coconut shrimp" BUT I substitute it to be firecracker.... they offer the firecracker as the appetizer but let me switch it out to have a full "meal"'with bigger portions and with the sides as well. That's one thing I really want to stress... this restaurant is happy to make simple accommodations that other restaurants may be agitated to do. Great drinks, appetizers, and entrees. The sizes are good and the prices are pretty average considering the location, portions, and type of food of course. I would compare this to a more tropical Red Lobster if you will. Defiantly give it a try!! read more

I normally don't love chains but didn't have much choice coming into Pittsburgh late. The food was fantastic. Very flavorful and fresh. They don't actually take reservations but they put you on a running list "in case." Didn't really get that but we didn't wait anyway at 830pm. Service was very polite and helpful. We started with the baked goat cheese appetizer stuffed into bell peppers with crostini. Unbelievable! I had the Chicken Santiago which was also very good and my colleague had the almond-crusted mahi mahi special with mashed sweet potatoes. Very fresh and perfectly cooked. If I'm in the area again I will probably go back. read more

This is by far one of my favorite chain restaurants. Ever since I discovered the jerk chicken pasta dish years ago I have been hooked. I've tried making the recipe myself using recipes found online and nothing ever compares to theirs. If you've never tried it I highly recommend you give it a try. The chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauce is the perfect amount of spice, and the asparagus and mushrooms are a great addition to the dish. On top of that this place has delicious drinks. This time around we went with the jalapeño watermelon margaritas and it was so good that we ordered a second pitcher. The ambience of this restaurant is always delightful as well. Even on a wet rainy day you can go here and feel like you are off on a vacation. read more

When we want to sit outside in the summer months for a quick bite to eat and have a drink, we like this place. The outside seating on the wraparound porch is very nice and the plantings have matured so your view of the Parking lot is obscured. Bahama Breeze is a chain so the food is predictable but tasty Glad this place is at Robinson Town Center. Nice stop while we're out picking something up. read more

We came in for a quick bite oct 4th ..before flying to New York .when we got there we saw it was half price happy hour Friday on appetizers and drinks so we got three of the high end appetizers like lobster stack which were delicious.. bill came and it was not half off.. server said it showed up at 3:57 on the computer and happy hour started at 4:00 she said she would see if her manager could override it ..which she did the service was great thank u Christina and a woman manager handled the situation with the golden rule .. take note other managers we will definitely be back and by the way if u get half off or use a coupon tip ur server on full price... they rely on tips to live .servers in restaurants only make $2 something an hour not sure most people get that.. so tip like its ur loved one working there is my hope read more

Their smothered pork goodness is to die for. I loved the crispiness of the pork coupled with the awesome fried yuka balls with cheese inside smothered by guava sauce. My husband ordered the Cuban sandwich which is just ok. Their Cubano Mojito is also good, refreshing and has a good alcohol in it. The only reason I gave this a 4 stars is because the server is not too friendly. I feel that hospitality has to be good for this place to get a 5 star. I'll recommend this place and will surely comeback. read more

When reviewing restaurants such as this one, immediately I want to lump it into a pool with other well known places like Applebees or Fridays simply due to its uncanning ability to seem mediocre. When you walk into Bahama Breeze, I can honestly say you will not feel like you are soaking up sun on the beaches of the Bahamas but I can say you will feel like you are in a large wooden building with slightly depressed servers all the while wondering why the ceiling fan is on in the middle of a 20 degree day in January to which you would later conclude that it's reasoning is to uphold the latter part of the establisments name. (That was a long sentence...pheww) Well moving on, the food was pretty snazzy, I recommend the spinach dip since it was like giving your tongue a full massage. The beer was pretty normal..nothing special. I will say since there was no one there, I was asked if I was okay about 5 times..and that my friends is a new record. If you are in the area and like places like this..check it out, it's worth a glance. read more

Just had a great experience here! Sat at the bar before heading out on a flight back west. Anthony was tending bar and made my mojito to perfection, after I asked for some minor specifics. He also recommended a great appetizer that hit the spot. Would give 5 stars, but I usually hesitate if I have only had one visit. I will be back (might be awhile as I live In California) and will update on my second trip! Try the jerk shrimp....yum. read more

This place is great for when you want passable food and delicious, sugary cocktails. It is always packed, but they take open table reservations which is good. I had the mahi mahi and it was completely unremarkable. It wasn't bad, the stand out was the pineapple salsa that came on top of it, but the best part of dinner was my pineapple coconut martini. It was delicious. My friend and the cobb salad and it also looked okay. Everything about Bahama Breeze is okay, but it's just okay. There are obviously many better options in Robinson, but this is not the worst option. It's just...okay! read more

Came in after my soccer game for a late night dinner. I ordered a water and ginger ale to drink... And BOTH beverages had mysterious items floating in it (yuck)! It looked like pulp from lemons or lines... Our server changed the beverages out, but it still looked like something extra was floating in the cups so I opted not to drink anything. We also had to pay our tab right as we got our food. Slightly annoying but I can dig it. I ordered the Jamaican jerk chicken. It's actually pretty good and flavored/seasoned quite well. Their plantains are good as well. Not sure what was up with the beverage situation but I'd likely come back in 4-6 months. read more

I'm in the area today shopping, and decided to stop here for lunch. It looks so cool inside that we opted to sit inside rather than outside, inspire of the fantastic weather today. That's how nice the décor is. This time around we tried the coconut mojitos. They were great! For lunch, I got the half jerk chicken and tortilla soup. The soup was great, packed with flavor. The jerk chicken not so much. It was very bland, too bland to be Jamaican jerk chicken. The included on the side BBQ sauce, even just a little, completely dominated the chicken. So if you want flavor, probably try a different dish. I'm trying a burger next time! read more

This casual and slightly Caribbean-style restaurant has a menu of tacos, shrimp, quesadillas, wings, salads, rice, soups, burgers, chicken, fish, and desserts.
