This was our first visit to any of the chain. We waited in the bar for about 10 minutes since we didn't have a reservation. They were attentive and quick. Once seated, the waitress, Cambria, was fabulous. We had the bam bam shrimp appetizer, which was recommended by the hotel we were staying at. Awesome. I had the black cod with miso sauce, bok choy and fingerling potatoes. The whole dish was perfect. The fish was soooo tender and moist and their note that it was like sea bass in texture was true, but it was better. Overall, it was wonderful. A bit noisy since the restaurant was full and we were on the bar side, but very enjoyable. read more

Amazing food...amazing customer service!! Used a gift card to pre-order New Year's Eve dinner online and arrived there at around 5PM only to discover we had received an email informing us that our online order never actually was received by the Brentwood location due to "technical difficulties" of some sort. The server came out to our car (we were there for curbside service) to apologize to us for what had happened and informed us that the manager was putting our original order as top priority to get ready ASAP and that we did not have to pay for the dinner!! They covered the cost of the entire thing (3 meals). It was well over $100, which left us with a full gift card that we still get to use. Of course, we were upset in the beginning when we were informed we would have to wait, but we ended up only waiting about 15 minutes, and the manager made our evening when the restaurant covered the entire cost. That is great customer service! And the food was done to perfection (as it always is). This has become one of our favorite places to get carry-out during the pandemic. We have never had any issues at all with our many orders. Thank you so much for going above and beyond! read more

My gf and I came here at 835pm. They close at 9. We walked in at 835. They told us their kitchen was closed and to have a good day. Iv never had service like this at a restaurant. Especially one that's supposed to be high quality. If they want to close at 830. Then they should shut down at 830. Thanks for wasting our time. read more

Driving through town on a roadtrip we were looking forward to a nice Sunday lunch at Bonefish even took a 30 minute detour to get here. While we haven't been to any bonefish lately we were a little bit surprised during this visit. Ambience: The restaurant was so dark, it was impossible to read the menue. I understand creating ambience but this was too low. We needed to use the flashlight function of my phone to figure out what we want. When asking the server, he responded: it is on purposes. You should come at night! Everybody has their flashlights out.... I think he was not kidding. We saw other people as well trying to decipher the menue and used the same remedy I did. Thanks for mobile phones! Meals: We started with the Bang Bang Shrimp which now are almost $11. It must the the additional greens their are adding much more then I recalled from the past. The size and amount of shrimps was disappointing. I remember them being tossed in the spicy sauce which realy makes the bang bangs what they are. Our portions seems only to have some sauce sprinkled over the top. About half of the shrimp were just dry breaded shrimps. My wife had the rainbow trout with 2 sides (greens and potatoes en gratin. I had Lilly's chicken with the same sides. it seems Bonefish has to save to make ends meet. The portion of the potatoes were more or less a large tablespoon and the greens were as well more a decoration than something tangible. While my wife's trout was cocked perfectly, my chicken was charred and bone dry. No attention to detail here and using the goat cheese to cover it all up. It also seems, Bonefish is not serving any bread anymore. We didn't get any and have not been asked. We also didn't see any bread on any other tables so we didn't bother to ask to avoid to get another explaination like the one with the darkness if the restaurant. Overall it was not a satisfying visit. We are loyal customers of the blooming brand and we know Carrabbas and Outback are not skimming on the sides and we know we can leave there usually satisfied. I wonder what's going on with Bonefish and why they are so counter intuitive when it comes to satisfy some of their customers. I read sone if the locations will be closed and it seems they are not profitable enough. IMHO, at least based on our experience here in St.Louis I can see why sone locations are struggling. read more

Lunch here with clients. They made the choice. Service was alright, not as speedy as I'd like. I ran out of iced tea twice. No Bueno. Crab corn chowder was ok...even with crab shell in a few slurps (ugh). The "Bangin Shrimp Tacos" was pretty good (and what gives this review 3 stars). Service was maybe 2 stars. Overall, a business lunch for 5 under $100 (including tip) was not bad at all but it didn't blow my socks off. Would I go back? Only if my client wants. read more

St Louis is lacking in great seafood places. That is to be expected in a city that is landlocked. So a great seafood restaurant here might not be amazing somewhere else. Another chain seafood looks like what we are going to have to work with. This place is good. The menu offers a huge selection without being overwhelming. The service was perfect. I prefer someone that is friendly and warm but doesn't talk to much, and somehow your drinks are always filled and they seem to read your mind. Mike very much fit into this. The decor was nice but it was not stuffy. I had the bang bang shrimp the steak cooked just the way I asked, crab cake and a key lime pie that was amazing. I can't wait to try more. I will be back! read more

Awwwww yeah! I couldn't believe my eyes when I was scrolling through the list of "Hot and New" places on my Yelp App the other day and saw the name of this place pop up. I didn't realize they had opened a location in STL!! I have only ever been to the location in FL with my parents over the summer for the past couple of summers now, and I didn't think they even had plans of coming to STL. Service was good, although there was only 1 server for pretty much the entire freaking dining room, so he had to delegate some tasks e.g. water refills, bringing ketchup, etc., to another guy (probably a buser), which was fine by us. That's called efficiency in my book, lol. I ordered my favorite thing to order...lobster grilled cheese which comes with a cup of lobster bisque. I'd rather not know how many calories I consumed that night, urp. And I was hella full afterwards, but soooo worth it. Sooooo delicious!! I want to come back and try other things too as they have a pretty expansive menu. They do have non seafood options for the *ahem* folks who dislike seafood. I hope they stay in business, cause I'd probably eat here once every two weeks minimum. Just for that grilled cheese and soup alone, nom nom nom! read more

Saint Louis has traditionally always been a day late and a dollar short when it comes to catching up with what's hip. Well, it's about time the Bonefish franchise dropped anchor here in town. We came in and were told it would be a 35 minute wait. 20 minutes later we were sat. Good start. I was worried with it being a cold night that the revolving door would make it a bit drafty. Somehow they engineered the entrance to keep the heat in which was comforting. First off, don't even think about skipping the bang bang shrimp. One of the best appetizers at a franchise restaurant you will find. The complimentary bread with olive oil and pesto is addicting, but save room for your entrees! I've tried most all the different fish during my travels around the country eating here and always go back to the trusty trout. They have a bunch of different fish preparation styles to choose from and a vast amount of side dishes to round out your meal. I've always thought they do a splendid job with their vegetables. A well thought out drink list serves Bonefish well too. This is about as reliable a restaurant you'll find. One month into its opening and it's settling in nicely. I'll be back. read more

love this place lets start there....I go there after work for happy hour and love the vibe...Andre(manager) I hope that his name was telling me about their brunch on sun,so I decided to have my. 50th birthday brunch there....it was wonderful my company loved the food and the service. I love this place and will always return read more

Was excited to go and pleased we had a new local eatery. Then I went. Service was confused, at best. Drinks took 45 minutes to arrive and then arrived incomplete. No bread or water offered. Water was delivered, after two requests. For our party of five, food arrived in 2 plates, then 1 and then almost 10 minutes later the last 2. But, fear not, twice a staff person offered food we had not ordered. When our requested lemon for the fish arrived, it was delivered by a new-to-us staff person who simply reached between guests, dropped the plate on the table and walked away without a smile or a word as the lone lemon rolled round the plate a couple of times. Dessert came fairly promptly but not the ordered coffee. When we had finished the table was only partially cleared (now we could not get rid of the three plates of lemon we had acquired) but we were offered a soup and then a shrimp entree for some other table by another harried and confused looking staff person. The food was "meh" - much was overdone and no "wow" moments to make this Faulty Towers episode charming rather than tedious. Add to this, if more is needed, that the flooring is wildly slippery. I expected much, much better on all fronts. We eat out a few times a week and Bonefish earns the Worst Meal Out in 2014, so far. read more

TAKE CUSTOMER RECEIPT WITH YOU AND CHECK YOUR BANK ACCOUNTS! I received an email from my credit card company a few days after I ate at Bonefish. It stated that they had noticed I left an unusually high tip amount. $22 on a $60 charge. I remember specifically thinking out loud to my boyfriend "20% of 60 is $12" and signing my check. I never take receipts from restaurants with me. After speaking to a manager there he emailed a copy of my receipt showing a $22 tip, no total on the total line and a signature that was not mine. The manager stated they were taking this very seriously and would conduct an investigation. A few days later I get a call from a random bonefish employee stating he was going to refund $10. I asked what the investigation concluded and he said he "had no idea" he was just the guy who gave the refunds and then asked if maybe I split the check and that was the mistake! I doubt I will hear back from the actual manager. Nathan C was the server. I never write reviews but hopefully this one saves others from being robbed from this man. I will never done here again aside from the fact that the food was comparable to Red Lobster. read more

Bonefish Grill - Padded tip, forged signature - Seafood Near Me - Brentwood, Missouri

We went for a date night because we had a gift card and we honestly would have left after the first 5 minutes if we didn't have a gift card. We put our name on the waiting list online and checked in with the front desk as instructed. The hostess seemed confused and told us it "wouldn't be long" and suggested we grab a drink at the bar while we wait. The bar was dirty, understaffed, and the drinks were just "meh". After waiting more than 20 minutes and seeing other parties seated after walking right in, we went to the hostess stand and a different hostess said our name was never put on the waiting list by the other hostess. We were then seated after a few minutes at a booth that was slightly dirty and had an old rag and spray bottle sitting out behind our seats. After we moved that and were greeted by our server, the experience got MUCH better. Great service and excellent food made up for the terrible front-end experience, but I can't say I would be back anytime soon. read more

Tonight was my first time here and it was great! Our server was Jessica. Her personality, suggestions, and general attitude made good food and ambiance better! read more

This was my first time here, and it's Valentines Day 2020. First I'll say that the dinner salad and main course of the small portioned sea bass was really good. Gee, I wish I can say the same for the Bang Bang shrimp that was suggested by our server Lauren, but I can't. Lauren never put the order in, that was suggested, by her, leaving us very disappointed and still hungry, after main course.The only reason why I didn't get dessert, was for the reason Of me mentioning about us not getting the appetizer, I was told by Lauren,, " well I'm sorry...I'm not perfect." I'm sad because it was my first Valentines Day with my boyfriend, and I had made the reservations made 3 weeks prior. Needless to say I wasn't happy with the server. read more

My family and I celebrated a birthday last weekend. Upon arrival, we were somewhat shocked to find the bar area completely full. However, we were able to get a drink and a seat. A really nice touch was a server walking around with complimentary bang bang shrimp. Our reservation was honored and our food quite good. Problem: both a salad and soup were completely forgotten. While they were taken off the check a restaurant of this quality should not make this error. We will return but not on a Saturday night! read more

This was a terribly disappointing meal. We've been to the Orlando location several times and we were really excited when the St. Louis location opened. We had a reservation, but still had to wait almost 30 minutes for our table. My husband's pasta was not at all as described on the menu, and when he brought this to the waitress' attention she was rude about it. I ordered béarnaise sauce with my steak, and received mushroom sauce instead. My husband traded his pasta for a burger and fries- but the fries had calamari mixed in with them. The staff is poorly trained. The interior is reminiscent of a Joe's Crab Shack- right down to the plastic table cloths with brown paper covers. Too many other options in St. Louis to waste your time here. read more

I have been to Bonefish several times and it has always been a wonderful experience. I went on Sunday 02-9-20. We had Ray as our waiter he was very good. He was delightful. I recommend him if you go. The food was delicious I had the salmon caprese, my companions had the Bang Bang taco they also were delish. I highly recommend Bonefish. Regina read more

Although the food was good. I witnessed the bartender coughing in her hand then making drinks. She did not wash her hands nor did she use hand sanitizer. I'm not sure why she was allowed to work with a bad cough and no mask. It's not like they were busy. It doesn't seem like they are taking any safety measures. Not sure when I will go back. read more

Very solid food from quality to seasoning! I'm still working my way through their appetizer menu, but I can vouch wholeheartedly for the Bang Bang Shrimp, Lobster Stuffed Shrimp, Ceviche, and Ahi Tuna Sashimi. Entree-wise, I've had the Orange Roughy and the Sea Bass, both fresh and enhanced with the Sauce selection. I would have liked my Sea Bass a little less well done, but that's a matter of personal preference. I would definitely recommend the Mango Salsa! The chefs clearly pay attention to their sides, too, as the fries, potatoes, spinach, broccoli, and green beans have all been quite good. On the dessert menu, the Coconut Pie is delicious, rich, but light and almost mousse-like in texture. Mmm. I'm not getting the complaints about the service. Three times, with three wonderful services with full menu explanations, good timing on food, and friendliness. read more

I had been hearing great reviews about Bonefish Grill from friends who now are repeat diners there, so The Boyfriend and I figured we'd give it a go. We are SO glad we did! We came in on New Years Day evening and there was a 25 minute wait which actually only ended up being about 5-10 minutes. The restaurant is decorated in a clean, modern - yet cozy - feel and was very clean. Our server, Victor, was fantastic! he answered all of our questions and was very knowledgeable about pretty much everything! I had a Bloody Mary which was delicious (especially if you like horseradish in your drink, which I do) and we ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp for the appetizer. Holy shrimp, Batman. The shrimp had a nice crisp on them and the creamy, slightly spicy sauce was delish. The shrimp sat on a bed of fresh lettuce and when you paired the lettuce, shrimp and sauce all together, it became a nice little salad! It was more than enough food for two people. For our entrees, I got the 6 oz. Filet Mignon with White Truffle Butter (YUM), garlic whipped potatoes and spaghetti squash. The Filet was cooked perfectly and had a great flavor, even without the truffle butter (but seriously - USE THE TRUFFLE BUTTER); the potatoes were smooth and had a great garlic taste to them; the spaghetti squash was cooked well. The Boyfriend got the Blackened Fish Baja Street Tacos with fresh romaine lettuce, lime crema (yum), mango salsa (double yum), and fresh pesto. Our server told him he could get them in the crispy wonton shell or do a crispy soft taco (he chose the latter). The tacos were really good. He chose chips as his side and to me, they tasted like Billy Goat Chips, which are good so no complaints there. Throughout the entire dinner, our service was great, everyone was very friendly and the food was so good we didn't even have take home boxes! I also think the prices are fine for what you get in return. The dessert menu was mouth-watering but we were too full after dinner to indulge. Maybe next time though! Because there will DEFINITELY be a next time. read more

I went to Bonefish Grill with a couple friends after work one day. I have been to other Bonefish Grill's before and was happy to see one open up in STL. I kept telling my friends "we have to order the Bang Bang Shrimp" and initially they were a bit skeptical of my recommendation. However, as soon as they took their first bite...everyone agreed that it tasted awesome! I also split the lobster grilled cheese and crab tomato bisque soup with a friend. The soup was amazing...top 5 soups I've ever had. The lobster grilled cheese was buttery, crispy, and very filling. The chucks of lobster in the sandwich were also pretty generous. We also ordered the white truffle mac & cheese...which was pretty bland so I don't think I'll order than again. The service was great. Our waitress let us taste test some wine before we committed to ordering a full bottle. You also get bread and olive oil served with your meal...which is always a nice extra treat. read more

Eh. Not the best of the chains. Not a fan of chains anyway-but normally I like bonefish. They have nice drinks with fresh squeezed juices. The bang bang shrimp are always a delight. The staff is sorta friendly here. The service is slow. The food quality isn't what it is in other locations. I gave this location three separate try's before writing the review. All three times, they failed to meet even my lowest expectations. read more

Bonefish Grill - Bang bang shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Brentwood, Missouri

Going in, I knew the food would be good. This is a chain and I've eaten at several other locations across the country. But this experience was plagued with bad service. The waiter was friendly, but could not seen to get his act together. Drinks went unfilled & we had to ask for bread twice before he brought it to the table. Both items would be forgivable, if the restaurant was busy, but that was not the case. I also noticed that the sequence in which tables ordered had no impact on when your food came out. Dirty empty tables sat without being cleared the entire time we were there. Meanwhile, the hostess told customers there was a 25-minute wait, unless they wanted to seat themselves in the bar. She was obviously busy chatting with her friend at the podium. read more

I have been here three times - on my last visit the service along with food was horrible - my server came to us - asked "what drinks can I get you" then goes to the table next to us with this huge opening for them? Possibly thinking tip was better at the other table - I had a seasonal meal- after returning they had something comparable but didn't taste the same- thanks but NO thanks read more

Bonefish Grill - Here's the seasonal meal - Seafood Near Me - Brentwood, Missouri

We went in on VDay w/o a Reservation, bu that's my bad for not planning ahead. They were packed and on an hour wait if you didn't have a reso, completely understandable. We were lucky enough to order some drinks and get a couple of seats at the bar while we were waiting as there was a couple that was just getting up as we were ordering from the bartender. The decor is very nice you can tell its a new restaurant. During our hour wait we had a couple of apps, the bang bang shrimp first(very good and just a little spicy), then the crab cakes(average).I had beer to drink they only appeared to have only 4 draft handles, but they do have a bigger selection in bottles. My wife doesn't really like beer so she was happy that they had a HUGE cocktail and wine list. She had a pomegranate martini and a red sangria, she really liked both. I should note they had 4 bartenders on which showed how prepared they were for the Vday patrons. They were all very nice and made good suggestions, not only to us, but to every other customer that came by to get drinks. Once we got to our table which was a booth, we met our server, he was good and attentive. He made extended convo, with good intentions but its vday and were here with to spend time and talk to each other not the server. I get really annoyed and can spot with ease when a server or manager if making forced and fake conversation, its my least favorite thing about dinning out. I think restaurants as a whole need to dial that back, mgmt should be able to spot if they need to make a table visit not just go to every single table because they are forced to, or of course if I ask for the manager. Never the less everyone was VERY nice. We had caesar salads (good but standard). my wife had the lobster grilled cheese w/ the lobster bisque and really enjoyed it. I had the chop which was juicy and cooked very well. No desserts we were way too stuffed after the apps, drinks and entrees. Overall we spent about 2.5 hours here and it was a nice time. I feel like I could give them a 5 but the food is just too pricey for what it is, its better than most chains I will give them that but its still not 5 star material. The service I would give 4.5 but the forced awkward convo took that away. They do have a happy hour menu but if you go for dinner and want app, entree, and drink or dessert you will spend over $30 per person. There VDay special was for $30 per, and didn't include drinks which we didn't do because I didn't like that limited food offering. read more

Heard the talk from co-workers so had to give it a try. Appetizers: were at the table incredibly fast. We were amazed. Found the Maryland crab cakes were under cooked and almost raw in the middle, the bang bang shrimp was excellent and abundant. Portion size was large The ceviche was piled overtop of chops romaine lettuce in a cup which left you digging through it in search of the little tidbits of seafood buried within.it lacked any cilantro which is a main stay of any good ceviche. Coconut shrimp was nicely sized shrimp but obviously pre-made and microwave heated and served on a very hot plate (the way plates get in a microwave. Main course: To be fair I may have ordered poorly. Having never tried a fish called Oscar? Terrible fish to eat. Lacking flavor, with a slimy texture that disintegrates in your mouth. I wonder why it was recommended and on the "daily specials" List. The few crumbs of crab meat sprinkled on top was not enough to dress up a bad piece of fish. My friends filet was done well,she did not comment on it at all. Desert: Flourless chocolate cake with ice cream rich with good quality ice cream, the key lime pie served custard style as it should be. Last comment which I always take to heart; When I ask the server what is the chef famous for, as in what is his signature dish? And without hesitation I'm pointed to the nights special... It's obvious they have no idea and are trying to move product. Our take home opinion is this is a nice place for appetizers and a couple drinks before going out, or desert and a nightcap after dinner elsewhere but definitely not a destination place for dinner. read more

The appetizers are great. My hubby and kids had burners and they loved them. I had steak and shrimp. Steak was cooked just exactly like I ordered it. Will definitely go back. read more

I usually try not to frequent chains too much and instead support local businesses but this restaurant is in my stomping grounds so I at least had to try it. I had been to a Bonefish Grill wayyyy back in high school and wasn't jazzed, but last Friday's experience was pleasant. Two of us sat at the bar during around 5:30 and the dining area was already crowded which was a surprise to me even on a Friday. We were greeted quickly and I tried a winter cocktail with vodka, St. Germaine and white cranberry juice. It was really tasty albeit a little on the sweet side for my normal taste. I finished my night with Manhattans... We decided to just split a few items instead of eating entrees. We started with Bang Bang Shrimp which my boyfriend had eaten before and enjoyed. They tasted really great but they were not spicy like advertised. We asked for Sriracha and life was better. We followed with a wedge salad. I mean, unless you have old lettuce it is pretty hard to screw up a wedge. End of salad review. From then on we had some Waygu pot stickers with a ginger soy sauce. I loved them and thought the meat inside was flavorful and tender. My boyfriend thought the ginger was a little overkill. And even though we were at a seafood restaurant, we split sides of mushroom ravioli and truffle mac 'n' cheese. I know, I know, weird combination of foods that night. The ravioli were tasty though I would have liked a slightly larger portion. The mac 'n' cheese was a snore. I am pretty certain there was no truffle in the dish and despite it being boiling hot (literally, came boiling in a skillet to the bar) the heat could not hide the bland flavor. Decor is sleek. Service is friendly though could benefit from a bit more training on the food preparations. I am sure we will return when a local restaurant just won't do. read more

Perfectly cooked salmon every time. I come to the area for business and I look forward to the service from their hostess. I really wish I knew her name! She is kind and remembers me each time I come. read more

Stoped for lunch one day on a whim, and so glad we did. They have fresh fish flown in and it makes a difference. I had the fish of the day (Tilapia) and it was VERY good. Another person got the fish tacos and it was said to be exceptional. Service and decore were exceptional as well. read more

Service was great, no long waits. Food was pretty good, but the main seasoning is salt. Everything was salty. I had a pasta dish and it was a big enough portion that I could bring home some for leftovers. The bread is delicious and you will fill up on it, if you aren't careful. The aioli tasted good, because it was highly salted. read more

This is the best Bonefish Grill we've ever been in! The waitstaff, especially Gideon, Adam and Noah, are next level fantastic. They are attentive without being intrusive. They know what they are doing! The food is always amazing. Every dish I have ever had there has been fresh, exquisitely prepared, and beautifully presented. Nate is the manager.

I normally don't take the time to write a bad reviews but, I'm making an exception today. Our server should rethink his future as a waiter. Slow, lethargic with memory problems. Very agreeable, but had no intention on doing anything right. lol read more

Had lunch at Bonefish today and it was an excellent experience. We sat a the bar and the bartender Bronwyn was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. I had heard about the Bang Bang shrimp so I had to try it and it definitely lived up to the hype. We also tried the crab cakes and they were amazing, light and fluffy and the sauce that comes with them was delicious as well. Definitely the best crab cakes I've had in St. Louis. The portions are generous and I was almost full from the appetizers so for my entree I had the cilantro lime salad with salmon and it did not disappoint either. It was a great experience all around and I can't wait to go back. read more
