    We made dinner reservations here weeks ago. Bon Appétit Restaurant & Marina Bar is a landmark waterfront restaurant in Dunedin. It is known for its panoramic views of St. Joseph Sound, fresh seafood, and American/European cuisine since 1976. It offers both indoor dining with reservations and outdoor seating at the marina cafe, with options for lunch, dinner, and special diets, plus a full bar and live music. The atmosphere is considered sophisticated yet relaxed, I was surprised the by 8 o'clock. Everybody had emptied out.. We sat at a round table facing the sunset, beautiful. Miguel waited on us, he was attentive. Six of us ordered delicious seafood. I really enjoyed my Aji tuna, my husband, his grouper sandwich, friends, the oysters, the octopus and lobster roll. Portions were generous prices were reasonable and presentation was gorgeous. We celebrated a birthday and our table enjoyed a complementary glass of Prosecco. We weren't rushed and happy to be able to enjoy a relaxing dinner.

    The service was great. The food was good, but a little pricey, but expect nothing less for being on the water. The ambiance, oh my, I was at the bar, where I was treated like family but the outside is right on the water. Absolutely beautiful. Sorry the only pics I have are of sunset. The people kept me so engaged in conversation I forgot to take more.

    Came here with my girlfriend for dinner after dark. We had the best table inside--in the corner of the full-glass wall, but we couldn't see the water. Bummer. That would have been amazing! The restaurant has great water views if you come during the day. They also have an extensive outdoor area with a bar and live music, which is on the parking lot side. Our server, whose name I didn't catch, has been there about 40 years. The menu is a classic American upscale menu with many options. I ordered the crab and artichoke salad and we split a side of the mushroom risotto. I also had a dirty martini, which was generous. They brought rolls and butter, as well. The salad was DELICIOUS and the crab on it was generous. I only ate half and took the rest home for lunch the next day. It had brioche toasts that were so good! The mushroom risotto was meh, in my opinion. We also shared the flourless chocolate cake, which was huge and delicious, came with sliced strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream with, I think, chopped pistachios. A good date spot or special night out.

    We came here for our anniversary. Was nice to be able to make reservations and have our request met for a window seat so we could watch the beautiful sunset. Service was on it- always stopping by to check on us. The fish spread for the appetizer was quite decent--nothing extraordinary, but what you'd expect anywhere along Florida's coast. The real highlight was the lively bar area, which seemed to buzz with energy as the sun dipped below the horizon. We took a leisurely stroll out to the water's edge, capturing breathtaking photos of the sunset that painted the sky in hues of gold and rose. It's clear this spot enjoys stunning sunsets every evening. We're already planning our return on a Friday or Saturday night to experience the magic again, especially because they have a bagpiper who serenades the sunset, adding a touch of enchantment to an already picturesque scene.

    To celebrate 44 years of marriage we chose Bon Apetit for its view of the Gulf & past experiences. We wanted to eat at a classy restaurant, and Bon Apetit seemed the perfect place. We were seated by the window, next to an empty corner table. Unfortunately the couple who eventually occupied that spot watched YouTube or other videos on their phones and we heard numerous times the wedding music in those videos. They were less distracting than the two couples next to us. Their loud conversations made it impossible for us to hear each other as we spoke quietly to one another. We finally abandoned our conversation and took out our smart phones. The food was okay. My husband's ribeye was tough and chewy. It was medium more than the requested medium rare. He thoroughly enjoyed his mashed potatoes, and I enjoyed mine. The butternut squash was the best I have ever had. My filet mignon was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Our server was adequate. He took our orders. Someone else delivered our steaks. We do not recall him returning until it was time to pay the bill. This was a less than memorable way to spend our anniversary.

    Very rarely do I ever get taken back by a restaurant, it's super rare. But the time I had at Bob Appétit was phenomenal. It's my moms favorite restaurant, and I can absolutely see why. The ambience, the music, the food, the service, the VIEW... it was all incredible. We set a reservation for 530pm. Which gave us plenty of time to prepare for sunset! Their dining room inside is nestled with perfect sight on the water. I'm from out of town, but this is a Gem in the Dunedin. Aka little Ireland. Super close to downtown Dunedin too! We all had a few drinks; Chai Manhattan, Aperol spritz, champagne. Etc. A few of the entrees that were ordered, because we share our bites with each other were: The 14oz Ribeye, Lobster Tail, Bouillabaisse, Grilled Salmon, French Onion Soup (BEST I EVER HAD) Our server, Michael, was very accommodating as we saw it was extremely busy at the restaurant. He showed us in full detail, the specials of the night & described them eloquently. I was very impressed with his enthusiasm & delivery. We didn't go hard on desserts, as we each had our own $3 dessert shooter, all varied in flavors, shared of course. The restaurant is big on shareables it seemed, if thats your style or restaurant!! I will have to come back & celebrate more intimate date nights here. I was completely impressed with everything. I attached a few sights to further describe my experience. kindly, GTB

    We came to Bon Appetit for the views, and left feeling pleasantly surprised! We made reservations, but there were plenty of available tables on a Sunday night. The menus are on iPads and a little hard to navigate at first. We ordered our drinks, then headed out on the dock to snag some sunset pictures. We ordered the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer, which came in an oversized martini glass, so fun! For dinner, I ordered the Sole, which was de-boned at the table and cooked perfectly. We decided to share crème brulee for dessert, which was slightly burnt but overall good with the fresh berries on the side. Our server, Cameron, was friendly and attentive! They do have a dedicated parking lot which was confusing to get to, but super convenient!

    A little too chilly to sit outside last night, so chose the indoor bar. What a treat! We're from Boston and travel down here often - tonight's entertainment was brought to us by Bobby from Boston! Great to trade stories, watch the bartending show and have a delicious meal! The food. The ambiance, and the service were all outstanding. This is a must try if you are in Dunedin!

    Oh this was amazing! Right on the water and an amazing view of the sunset. Parking is not a problem. There's a free lot across the park if their lot is full. I hear brunch is also very good. I got the fish and they deboned it table side and the lemon sauce was soooo good. I will be back to get the fish.

    French onion soup
    Nick D.

    Looked for a restaurant on the water and thanks to yelp found this place. Very welcoming friendly staff. They are professional servers, nice location great atmosphere inside. Ordered the escargot and it was a miss. Some people like curry but my opinion, don't add it to escargot doesn't belong. French onion soup was very salty along with everything else I ordered . 5 star service 3 star food. Won't be back, you might like it But not my cup of tea.

They also came with a tasty dipping sauce that was unique as well. The Caesar salad was neutral; no strong flavor yet not distasteful. No anchovies taste either. I could take it or leave it.

The waterfront setting, excellent service, and outstanding food make this place a must visit. We started with the Jalapeño and Corn Hushpuppies with homemade remoulade. They were perfectly crisp, soft inside, and packed with flavor. The remoulade added a creamy, tangy kick that made them unforgettable. The Cajun Mac and Cheese with andouille sausage was easily my favorite mac and cheese ever. The sauce was rich, velvety, and incredibly flavorful, with the sausage adding a smoky, savory depth. It was hearty, indulgent, and satisfying enough to be a meal on its own. The Low Country Boil was the highlight. Everything tasted fresh and perfectly cooked, and the broth was deeply savory, bold, and full of flavor. The seafood, sausage, corn, and potatoes all soaked it up beautifully. Every bite was delicious and comforting. For dessert, the chocolate flourless cake with vanilla ice cream was rich, decadent, and intensely chocolatey. Easily my favorite dessert of the night. The banana bread pudding was also amazing and full of flavor, but the cake takes the top spot. Amazing food, amazing service, and a great atmosphere right on the water. Highly recommend and I will definitely be back next time I'm in Clearwater.

    Definitely a touristy spot with their prices but flavors pretty good overall…read more Upon arrival the parking area is paid parking only which seems normal for this area of Clearwater. The ambiance of the venue is an open air right next to the marina. The concept of being able to catch a fish and have the restaurant prepare it for you is really cool! For appetizers we got the baked oysters and the ceviche. The oysters were delicious - perfectly cheesy and baked to perfection, great flavor. Not fishy or gritty at all. The ceviche also provided a great flavor and was devoured pretty quickly! For dinner we got the American red snapper, the black grouper and the beef and reef kebabs. The red snapper was yummy but a little fishy for my taste. The black grouper was probably my favorite, stuffed and served with the lobster gravy on top. So good - I wish I would have ordered this for myself! I ordered the beef n reef which had great flavor but only had three half dollar size beef medallions which was really skimpy in my opinion. For dessert, we got the banana bread pudding and which I was so excited for but was a little lacking in flavor. Probably wouldn't get this again. Probably would not dinner again and if I did I would got with a fish! Our servers name was heather and she was very sweet and quick!
