Sat at the bar at lunchtime. Bartender was very friendly and efficient. The sea bass Oscar is always to die for. Cooked perfectly not overdone and the creamed spinach was great. Husband had the Tuna Poke bowl, tuna chops to small but tasty. He had the Lily Chicken and raved about it. We brought home a lot of it. Calamari was too salty and tough. On,y thing I wouldn't recommend from Bonefish. Never been right. read more

Excellent service in restaurant or via delivery,.. Very good quality seafood when ever we go there! One of our favorite places for a good night out! read more

We came with family for dinner, I wish I could remember our waiters name because he was great, very attentive and friendly. The draft beer was ICE COLD and the food was top notch. This was my first time coming to Bonefish Grill and it won't be my last. The crab cakes were so delicious and the shrimp tacos were so full. This place was great! Can't wait to come back. read more

Did not want to go here but told myself I'd keep an open mind. Still as bad as last time, if not worse. I CANNOT believe the portions for the money spent here. The salads are nice sized (but if you want one with your dinner you have to pay an upcharge, plus it counts as one side) but I was appalled when I looked at the plates in front of everyone on the table. The mashed potatoes on one plate looked to be about 2 teaspoonfuls! The lobster, (or did they slip us a crawfish?) was 3 bites and came with no butter that had to be asked for, after it was served. The crab cake was the size of a ritz cracker. Broccoli 3-4 little sprigs! Seated in a booth next to a table full of people when the place was nearly empty - had hoped to have more space and privacy, due to "social distancing' A signature cocktail didn't even taste like it had alcohol in it and not in a good way - it appeared to have been left out - there is no way a martini can only taste like juice. Appetizer came before we even had the first round of drinks. The greeters in the front were friendly and very nice; however, our server came across very short and distant - did not make us feel very welcome until we were leaving, which was bizarre. I hate to even say anything because serving has to be extra difficult right now. Last, don't bother, when you make a reservation, saying what the occasion is where it asks you. Our server said nothing about ours until after we got & were done paying the check, offering a togo dessert (which was declined) as an afterthought. Next time, if this is where our friends want to go, we will pass. Never again, 3rd strike and we are out. EDITING TO ADD: Bonefish kindly replied to this review and, this will sound flippant and I don't mean it to be, but I will not be contacting them because though I appreciate the gesture, I don't want to go back here, even if they wanted to offer a giftcard. Not looking for free food, just wanted to warn others of the small portions and consistent poor experiences here. read more

Excellent service, love the selection of fish. The service wasn't so great when they first opened, but they have come along way and are a great dining experience! Oh and by the way don't forget to try the chilliean Seabass!!! read more

What happened?? There portions have gotten very small. I had the cod fish and chips. They use to serve 4 pieces of whole filays ,they were hanging over the plate . Now they are the size of chicken fingers.I asked my server what's going on . Reply was Corporate direction Reduce the portions size. Bottom line , I am reducing my restaurant list . Good by . I won't be back. read more

Ate there twice over a couple of days while visiting the area. The first time the food and service were great even though the place was full. The second time, a couple of days later, the restaurant was my busy and the service was horrible. Had a waiter with attitude. Brought our side dishes out way after the entrees and they were cold. Brought us the check while we were still eating. Inconsistent service ! read more

Looking over the menu online before we went proved that this is not a restaurant we would normally patronize. It's a bit pricey. I know, I know............you get what you pay for.........usually. We are seniors on a fixed income. Thanks to the gift of a gift card we went. Tara our server was very nice, and patient, as I couldn't make up my mind. She checked back often. They provide a little chunk of Ciabatta bread and an herby oil for dipping ....yum! Also a couple of pats of butter if you're not into the oil. I ordered the Ahi Tuna Sashimi, 12 pieces 19.90. You'll see from the photo that it was a GENEROUS portion and it was AWESOME. I would go back again just for that because I think it is a great deal. The tuna was so barely seared it almost wasn't YAY!! The sesame seeds added nothing to it except a bit of a nuisance. They got all stuck up in my teeth and added no real flavor. HERE'S A TIP FOR SASHIMI LOVERS. If you love sashimi ask for it un-seared and no sesame seeds. This is how I will order it in the future. Then I will be in TOTAL roll my eyes in the back of my head bliss. My husband ordered the Lobster Roll for 19.90. It came with a very small serving of french fries. He was disappointed in that since he loves french fries and they are probably fairly inexpensive for a restaurant to purchase. The sad part he said about having so few french fries it that they were REALLLLY good. The roll had quite a bit of lobster in it, but he said he would not order it again. Blue Moon draft was 5.40 as was the Sam Adams draft. We'll stick with the 3.25 Blue Moons at our local dive. This place was just a little too rich for our cheap senior citizen blood. But, it is a beautiful restaurant inside with it's mix of black and white table cloths and napkins. We went at lunch time on a Friday and there were only a few (as in three) couples there. read more

Expensive for portions and service slow. Sometimes servers have no idea what the specials are that Corporate offers via email to me. There drinks are costly and not always good. read more

We ordered the Blackened Baha Fish Tacos. It is Alaskan Cod with three warm tortillas, mango salsa, lime crema and shredded lettuce. We ordered it for To Go. When we got home, we found very little mango salsa, Lima crema and shredded lettuce on the tacos. The tacos were dry. At $14 a meal, I was expecting a juicy premium fish taco. The place is very nice, but it is more of a high end restaurant. Unfortunately the food was average. we have fish tacos a lot. These did not measure up. read more

Been to the Spring Hill Bonefish 6-8 times in the past 2 years and it has been a disappointment every time. Bang Bang shrimp was drowning in the sauce. Shashimi tuna was not seared at all. Looks like they took it from the fridge and rolled it in sesame seeds. If I want Bonefish I will drive 40 miles south from now on. Service is good, food not worth what we pay. read more

A fun night with friends made possible by the wonderful food and great service at Bonefish. We enjoyed cool craft cocktails and a very good bottle of wine along with perfectly cooked and flavorful entrees. There were a number of keto-friendly options, for which we were grateful. Our server Eric was attentive and professional. We had been to another Bonefish nearby, but this one was much better. Recommended! read more

I WAS a frequent patron and a rewards member in the past. They have gotten so bad I don't intend on going back. There portion sizes have shrunk, prices gone up. their variety, sides and lots more are inconsistent. The only thing that has stayed good is their wait staff. I have tried other Bloomin Brands restaurants and they seem to all have similar issues. read more

We were not happy with our meal :( everything was overcooked, which we had to send back. Our waitress didn't check on us. I was do hopeful this would be a good experience. I used to love Bone fish but we will not be back ...so sad read more

This was our first time trying this restaurant. We were a party of 4. Two plates were under cooked. Nate was very attentive and provided great service. immediately took back and apologized. The manager Steve then came over to apologize and made sure the rest of our dinner was the best experience we could have. We are out of towers but will try to visit again. read more

My wife and i ordered bang bang taco's and in 30 mins door dash arrived. The food was hot but the lettuce was brown and and a smell. My wife called and asked for a manager. The manager steve answered and long story short said the lettuce was fresh and ask what he wanted us to do. Wow... he blamed doordash and said there's nothing they would do. After spending 90 dollars and getting rotten food my wife and i will never go back. Its a shame.. read more

We came here for Easter brunch with some out of town family and we were not disappointed. We called ahead and had reservations so were seated right away. It was busy, but not too loud. The drinks, appetizers and food came out in great time. Our waitress was super polite and helpful through our whole meal. read more

I typically avoid chain restaurants, especially overpriced chain restaurants. But I got a coupon in the mail for Bonefish Grill buy one entree get one free maximum value $25. Well we ordered our meal and presented the coupon and we're told we couldn't use it because it was a special on Tuesday. So we spoke to the manager and he did not change anything or make it right. And he did not honor our AARP discount. The service was horrible, wait times we're ridiculous as in slow. The desert I ordered that came with my special was supposed to be key lime pie which they bagged up to go. But when I came home I found out it was some kind of coconut pie that wasn't very good at all. I recommend you save yourself $50 and go about 6 miles west to the Bayport Inn! read more

Great food. A little on the expensive side. You can't get a steak larger than 6 ounces.

Excellent food and service! Jessica O; our server was amazing as were our winter white white cosmos! We will be back for some bang bang shrimp!! read more

Horrible. The waiter argued with me when my wedge salad was delivered to the table with crispy onions which I clearly ordered with no onions. He said that they were shallots and not onions. Truffle Mac and cheese had no flavor of truffle. Never again! read more

(July 2016) now that this local unit of the Bonefish chain is a 1 1/2 years old it is time I add my two cents to some to the good & ugly that has been written. The managing partner came to Brooksville, FL from a location in GA. Certainly a different market and clients especially when the snow birds descend upon us. Initially they did not honor (due to corporate decision) national promotions such as bang-bang shrimp Wednesday's. I saw tables walk out due to this aborted effort. That was quickly resolved but feelings and attitudes were hurt and some diners never did come back. I believe the reason for some negative reviews. Staff was new and this type of restaurant had not previously been up here 50 miles North of Tampa. Training was ongoing as it needed to be. Today, this Bonefish is very clean, staffed by friendly energetic servers and the food is very good. Can you get a bigger portion down at the fish shack, yes but everything else is the big if. Portions served at this Bonefish are no different than any other unit of the chain. This is a corporate unit not independently owned as stated in other reviews. The restaurant manager, Ms.Keelyn Carter is a sharp lady who gets around and talks to the guests. Great interpersonal skills. The managing partner Steven Polenta is a hands on manager. He interacts with customers and manages by walking around and is top notch. He gets it! Anyway, very good and friendly staff, bar area is impressive, food and service very good for 4 stars. Right now (July 2016) they are offering a 2 for $50 dinner package to include full size entree and side, bang bang shrimp app. to share & full size desert to share. PS: try the Sunday Brunch, limited menu but excellent! read more

I came here for lunch for the first time ever at a bonefish grille today. I loved the decor, very nice atmosphere. Very nice staff. Very good food. My husband and I ordered the bang bang shrimp and it was amazing! My husband doesn't care much for shrimp, but he even said he loved it. I ordered the fish of the day which was trout with a pesto sauce and an order of cous cous. I've never had it before and it was actually really good! My husband ordered the steak sweet tacos and he said they where pretty good. If and when you go... I do recommend the bang bang shrimp. Would have been 5 stars, but I feel the price for a lunch menu was pretty high. read more

Bonefish Grill - Cute to go box, very nice of them to mark and date it for me! - Seafood Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

My wife had been here a few times, and finally persuaded me to go. This was hottest restaurant I have ate at in a long time. I was actually sweating a little, turn your ac down some, please. I have heard from different people how good the bang-bang shrimp is for over a year, so I had to get some. What I was brought did not look anything like I had imagined. I thought they would be covered in a sauce which these barely had any sauce on them. While good in taste they were lacking any spice at all due to the absence of sauce. The waitress said "most people ask for extra sauce".... Not impressed by what I was served at all. My crab lump soup barely qualified as warm but was delicious. Advice for anyone going here, do not be suckered into paying more for a "bowl" of soup vs the cheaper "cup". There is NO difference in volume. My son got the cup, I got the bowl. To simplify, very shallow bowl much deeper cup and the diameter difference does not make up for it. The Chilean Sea Bass was terrific. The Lobster flat bread was awesome. The fish tacos were to die for. The Russian mule drink was delicious, and they make a good dirty Martini. The service was really good and the restaurant was clean. Honestly if we hadn't been so hot this would be 5 stars. BTW Ceiling fans would help to generate more CFM if the owner or manager is too cheap to turn the air down. read more

While the bang bang shrimp lived up to their reputation. The calamari was over cooked and tasted of flour. My fish from the fish and chips were still swimming in cooking oil. The French fries lacked flavor and were also soaked in cooking oil . My wife's chicken wrap was overwhelmed by the flavor of gritty goat cheese. read more

I have eaten in Bonefish Grill a total of three times now, once in Pensacola, and twice here. Truthfully I never got a decent meal in either place. (Actually, I got rather severe stomach distress afterwards in Pensacola.) my second visit here was as an invited guest, so I could not gracefully refuse. It's interesting that my host was embarrassed afterwards by the poor quality of the food - said it would be his last time coming here. Maybe the other reviewer is right about corporate vs. local management. I presume ours is local. At any rate, the quality of the seafood is such that I wonder why others come here, especially considering the fact that our area is famous for excellent seafood. I will not mention names of restaurants, lest others accuse me of pandering for them, but we all know their names. I predict that this restaurant will eventually go bye-bye if they don't do something about their food. By the way, my wife feels even more negative about them, so it's not just me. read more

I always read a restaurant's reviews. BEFORE dining to get a feel for what we're in for, and AFTER dining to see if they agree with what we just experienced. Our first visit was just after this store had it's Grand Opening on January 26, 2015. We let the mad rush die down a bit, before venturing out. The place was packed, we ended up sitting at the bar. It was a thoroughly unpleasant dining night out. The first problem? So many restaurant designers are forgoing upholstery, window fabrics and acoustically absorbent accessories. The interiors are flanked by sleek and modern decors that bounce sound around like hot corn popping in oil! The noise levels do NOT lend well to a soothing and conversational dining atmosphere. My delectably desirous fiancée and I had intended on a romantic evening out, enjoying some fine food and enchanting each other's fancies. This was most certainly not to be. We ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp, then left. We left totally wanting....for quiet. And food. Thanks to Bonefish Grill and the U.S. Postal Service, we received a nice coupon for $20 off of a $50 meal purchase. The coupon almost got tossed several times, until one Friday morning. I noticed it was going to expire soon, so we decided to give BG one more try. The coupon worked! It got us to go back. DD fiancée(delectably desirous) and I dressed to the nines, as it was called years back. We were looking good and feeling good. (She was anyway, LOL). Not surprisingly, the place was packed. Well, it was a Friday night. The only place to sit was at the bar, so here we go again. It was not quite as noisy as before, but close. We sat for a bit too long before the bartender acknowledged us. This was AFTER she took care of a patron next to us, that had arrived AFTER us. Geez! We got something to drink, then that was about it. Ms Bartender was checking on all the folks around us. She seemed too busy for 'us', but there were 3 people working the bar, so I don't feel she was overworked. She knew we were just waiting to be seated for dinner. She never asked us if we'd like an appetizer. She did not mention the nightly specials. We had to learn about the Stone Crab app special from the guys next to us. One of them ordered it, but we did not believe it was worth the $30-something price tag. Ms Bartender never even asked if we needed another drink. I ended up gnawing on the ice in my empty glass, while my stomach was gnawing at me! Maybe corporate should address the notion of upselling, promotion and customer needs? This was not looking good, and we were beginning to think that coupon wasn't going to be worth the aggravation. I asked to be seated at a nice window seat, and we were willing to wait additional time, if necessary. We were at the bar for about 35 minutes total, then were seated at a very nice window seat. Our server was Ashlie. She was very cordial, professional and efficient. There was a slight delay before she got to us initially, but she apologized and we really did understand and appreciate she was very busy. No problem. I ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. What's not to like? We absolutely enjoyed and devoured this wonderful appetizer. It was yummy! Fab fiancée ordered the Snapper & Shrimp special. She loved it, and managed to eat about half. I tasted it, of course. It was delicious! I ordered the menu Sirloin & Crab Cake dinner. It's a 6 ounce center cut sirloin and a Maryland style Crab Cake. It came with squash and Potatoes Au Gratin. The steak was cooked Mid Rare to perfection. It had a nice taste, but I felt it was a bit over-spiced. Possibly a lesser cut of meat, chemically revved up? LOL. As we were winding down and feeling cozily coddled, I noticed a couple of 'events' that occurred nearby. I overheard a nearby table complaining about their service, some of their ordered food and the time it had taken. The most notable thing I observed? I watched a family of three: a man, woman and a young boy come in and get seated. They waited, and waited, and waited. No one was attending to them. NO one came. I wasn't staring, but I just couldn't help but notice them getting more and more fidgety. They finally decided they'd had enough! I watched as they stood up, gathered their belongings and exited the premises. Too bad...for them, and Bonefish Grill. You only typically get ONE chance to make a good impression. (I did mention this to our server, she was shocked and visibly displeased, and advised she would let management know immediately what had just taken place). Overall? Bonefish Grill has some homework to do. I know this store is the first prototype for this new design. Hmmm, I wish they'd have done a bit more consumer and market analysis in regards to the decibel levels and creature comforts of their interior. The bar, especially. I will say the food is pretty darn good. At least the choices I've enjoyed. Give this Bonefish a try, but do not sit at the bar! read more

Pleasantly surprised by the food, service and atmosphere. My first visit to any Bonefish Grill was on a Friday afternoon with my mom and grandmother. When we walked up to the front doors, I noticed a nice outdoor lounge area with comfortable looking seats and gentle music playing. The inside was not busy and were were seated immediately. I noticed the music that they were playing once we sat down because it was very mood setting with its melodic sounds and on-the-floor-beats. I was as equally surprised as I was impressed at their music selection because too many times has a meal been semi-ruined by horrible music that didn't go with the establishment's aesthetic e.g. rap in a Japanese restaurant or country in a Chinese one. I tried "shazaming" a bunch of songs during our visit and asked if they have a public playlist but sadly they don't. Just another reason to come back! We started off by ordering their famous "Bang Bang Shrimp" appetizer which held up to its accolades. It was breaded to perfection and the sauce had just the right kick! The complimentary bread with dipping oil was nice and hot and I undoubtedly ate too much before my meal even came. I had Mussels Josephine and my grandmother had two crab cakes. Note: both items are listed under the "appetizers" section. My mom ordered the chicken wrap with a side salad. Everyone was very pleased with their meal and we ended up taking some food home. THe service was wonderful and the atmosphere exceeded my expectations. I would love to come back here during the evening and sit outside in their patio area or at the bar. I highly recommend this Bonefish Grill for your next outing. read more

Building is new and clean. Server was very nice and attentive. Unfortunately the food was in edible. I had the bang bang shrimp and the potstickers. The only bang bang was in my stomach for hours afterward. The potstickers we're like no other potstickers I have ever seen. They were filled with what seem to be taco meat. My friend had a hamburger which appeared to be OK. I will not return read more

Service at this bonefish is always phenomenal. Also love that they always have updated special lists. Highly recommend the Baja fish tacos!!

Ordered a simple plane burger. Medium rare. ....I think they left it on the grill for an extra half hour on accident. Bread takes about 20 minutes to come out. My side tasted good, there just wasn't a whole lot of it on the plate. They could probably use plates about half the size of those are their standard portions. read more

Food was good. Would rate this chain 3 stars. While food was good it was pricey. 4th star comes from our service. The waiter we had was marvelous. Don't find great service a lot and he was top notch. Made the no special occasion dinner a special night. Update. The service here is killer! read more

The food was awful and the management worse. I returned my food back and, too keep customers from doings survey they do not provide you with a receipt. The manager Robert was rude and condescending. Never came to the table, to find out why I turned back the plate. When I approached him on the way out he was rude. read more

I went there for one thing and on thing only, the "classic" ceviche. I didn't dine in, but picked up instead after placing 2 orders of overpriced ceviche that was frankly the worst I've had. The portion was ok I guess, but not really for the price. When you Google images of "Bonefish ceviche customer pictures look exactly how ceviche should look, smaller cut pieces almost like salsa. They had DICED onions, tomato and even avocado, so you can imagine how annoyed I was when I got him and found HUGE slices of onion, no tomatoes, no avocado and what I can only assume were carrots maybe, but nothing that was seen in any one of the other pictures I've seen specifically from google. There were almost whole sprigs of cilantro and the shrimp and scallops were tasteless.. not even like lemon. Consistency and laziness is the issue here so each location should be trained or able to make the same dish across the bored and make it look basically the same. I'm not nitpicking but the massive onion chunks overpowered everything and I felt cheated because mine was SO different from what I saw. I won't be back, but I do have to add that the hostess that was there was very nice. read more

OUTSTANDING!!!!!! I can not say enough about our experience at this bonefish! Between the sweet and spicy shrimp appetizer and the Tuna steak was not disappointed, then add in some refreshing cocktails and we are beyond thrilled! The icing on the cake? Our server!

Hopefully you share reviews with your staff... Thanks for everything Nate!! read more
