I love this place, came here with the wife and a Yelp buddy, we really enjoyed out meal and it wasn't slammed, so it was a bit quieter, which is nice when you want to talk with your table. We all had something a bit different, but did share some things that we had gotten, which made it nice to have a sampling of several different things on the menu. I had originally come here several years ago and was not impressed, but in the past few years Bonefish has really stepped it up and now is one of my favs to go to when I'm back home in Tampa. I would suggest anyone that hasn't been to Bonefish to try it, it'll be well worth the trip. read more

So we ventured out to Bonefish tonight. Ever since moving to Tampa, I have refused going to any restaurant we have in Daytona. Only because we have slim pickings there and it became overkill. Bonefish was one of my favorite restaurants back at home (we went all the time). With that being said. Only 2 stars you ask? It took over 20 minutes to get our drinks. They claimed they had to concoct the blend for the specialty drink on their summer menu. If it takes this long, take it off the menu. We ordered edamame to start . A Sister restaurant Roy's should do edamame right...nope. It tasted like the frozen kind from Costco. Then our entrees came out. We both ordered the new Lobster Roll. It was great but had maybe 3 oz of lobster meat. All bread. Did I mention the manager brought out the drink? She didn't apologize. She smiled and said here's your twisted Palmer. We didn't get the drink until after we got the lobster rolls. And by that time, what's the point. This bonefish is located in their corporate headquarters city. You would think they had their stuff together. Apparently not. I'm a huge fan of the OSI/Bloomin Brands chain. This let me down. read more

We went last weekend for lunch on Saturday. It was a celebration lunch after my daughter's college graduation, we arrived at 11:30am - we were the first customer's at this just opened restaurant. For some reason it took FOREVER for our waitress to approach us for drinks. FOREVER to bring us the drinks. FOREVER for her to take appetizers orders. FOREVER for her to take the order. FOREVER for the appetizer to be delivered. We couldn't figure out WTH to problem was!! I mean 40 mins into our dining the restaurant still only had 5 tables, 2 other servers were on the floor and service was at a snails pace!! Geez!! When we received our salads, appetizer and food - it was good and hot. But our entire lunch for FIVE people was dragged out to nearly a TWO HOUR experience due to their extremely slow service (fyi: we didn't have coffee nor dessert). I won't be running back to visit this location anytime soon. Was not a fan. read more

Been there many times for dinner and have always enjoyed it. A fellow yelper recommended their brunch and we were not disappointed. $20 for an entree and unlimited mimosas for Sunday Brunch is a great deal! It wasn't very busy, service was great and both the food and drinks were outstanding. Try the pomegranate mimosas! Music was a TINY bit loud for the ambiance, but a very minor criticism of an overall great experience. read more

Bonefish Grill - Sunday Brunch at Bonefish. Crème Brûlèe French toast and unlimited 'bubbly' (mimosas or Bellinis) - Seafood Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Currently waiting to be seated so this review is not based on food. We were told an hour wait. At the hour mark, we were told another 20 minutes....yet we heard one hostess say to the other "the party kept bugging me so I just sat them to get rid of them" to another party who came behind us Not professional and okay read more

I should start by saying I would have given this place 4 stars, if they hadn't forgotten to seat us. We put our name on the list and were told there was a 25 - 30 minute wait. 45 minutes later we still had not been seated. We went to the hostess stand, and found out they had just skipped over us! They sat us pretty quickly after that, but were not that apologetic about it. The food and service were good. I got the bang bang shrimp tacos which I would definitely recommend. I would probably order them anytime I went there. My husband also enjoyed his steak. Prices are ok for the quality - not cheap, but not outrageous considering you get a high quality meal. I am not a fan of the atmosphere. I feel like tables are crammed together in a big open room. I would go back here if I am with a group of people that wanted to, but its not a place I would choose as a favorite. read more

One of my favorite apitizers in the world is the Bang Bang Shrimp at Bone Fish Grill. This chain is consistant in food and quality. They really provide a feeling of luxury for a fair price. The last time I came here I tried the Fish'n'Chips. There we GREAT. I have never found a Bone Fish dish that I disliked. If you eat the Bang Bang Shrimp, you will be happy with Bone Fish Grill. The resturant also has a good wine selection. Every location has great ambiance. This location also has good customer service. There is nothing to complain about. This location is the closest to my apartment, so I will surely be back. I like Bone Fish a lot. read more

Adonis behind bar is amazing!!!!!! So knowledgeable about everything on their menu - food or drinks. His customer service is outstanding and I will definitely be back. read more

We had a great experience tonight for our 47th anniversary. Our waiter, Shawn, was very attentive and and gave us great service. We had the Parmesan Rainbow Trout and the Wolffish and it was delicious. That dressing on the coleslaw was the best I have ever tasted. It is a winner! read more

Went there for a surprise birthday party. The waitor was fantastic having to deal with 20 people! We had the beef dumplings and the bang bang shrimp for appetizers, both delicious! Had the bang bang shrimp tacos for dinner and also was delicious! Overall, great rest. will definitely go back! read more

The menu offers a Baja taco....on flour tortillas which isn't Baja style. Baja tacos are made on soft corn tortillas. I wish they offered corn as an option since corn is traditionally used and gluten free. The coconut shrimp was amazing. The calamari was crunchy and fresh and the lobster cover cod was superb. 5 stars had they had corn tortillas. Server was slow and forgot one kids meal read more

We ordered calamari starter on Ubereats and it was very disappointing . They stuff our plate with salad , it was overly salted (as if they were scrapping the bottom of the pan) . The only reason that I gave 4 stars is because the other dishes was good I will still order there but I will never again get the calamari. read more

Bonefish grill is my go to near or far and I've never went went wrong. Since I'm a rewards member I receive email for special lunch and dinner discounts, even appetizers. My location on Dale Mabry has a great manager, excellent bartenders and a host of regular attendees who make it special. The rainbow fish, garlic mashed and veggies are all good even the popcorn spicy shrimp hit the spot. read more

Good quality has truly gone down. Food is bland and not served hot. Service varys from good to terrible. Only reason to go is the crab soup. read more

I have a white wine sangria it was delicious. We also started off with a bang bang shrimp I've had spicier in the past when we went there a couple years ago not sure if they change their recipe. The wild snapper with shrimp was spicy and made to order delicious. The swordfish and squash ravioli wasn't too impressive flavor wise. read more

Magical Bangbang Shrimp with Savignon Blanc. Simple but effective. Bonefish is fantastic & highly recommended. read more

I have been to Bonefish Grill couple of times. The first time I ordered the Jumbo Crab Cakes which I thought meant they were large portions (size) but I was wrong. I found out later it means the crab is Jumbo...not the the Crab Cakes...Therefore I thought the menu was miss leading. Two weeks later...I went back tonight to try again and pleasantly surprised. No, I did not order the crab cakes. I asked the cook to come out and explain what the food would be like and what he recommended...He recommended the Lobster Rolls it was great. But what more impressed me was the service I received from the server; Alaina and Donna the Manager. I was served a large portion of bread and oil dip. After my meal, I made mention that I was glad she did not take away my plates until I was completely finished because I always feel that is closure when they take it all away and hand me the check. I was in no hurry and Alaina noticed it and didn't push me out. Donna greeted me and listened with sincerity when I explained the "last time" I was there. They both treated me like a "Guest"! I will be back!! read more

I was definitely pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Yes, I know it's a chain, but the food is definitely solid. As many reviewers mentioned before, I had the bang bang shrimp to start with. They are decent sized, perfectly cooked shrimp (not rubbery at all), with a crispy outside tossed in a lovely spicy aioli sauce. By the way, come on Wednesday and the bang bang shrimp is $5. As an entree, I had the grilled grouper in lemon butter sauce, which was definitely very nice. The grouper was not overdone, the lemon butter perfectly complemented the moist fish. The garlic whipped potatoes on the side were also delicious. As a dessert, the coconut pie was certainly unique and delicious. The warm custard was delicious. Our table also shared the bananas foster as we couldn't pass that up, which was also very good. To top it all off, the guava mojito hit the spot. This is a solid restaurant in Tampa, and I will definitely be back. read more

This is a very pleasant Bone Fish, I have visited several times with friends and always received great service especially at the Bar, Russ was especially great. The bacon wrapped scallop was so delicious and had the yummy winter white Cosmo cocktail drink. I'm truly considering adding bone figs to my eat the entire menu list. read more

Had dinner here tonight with my husband, mother-in-law, and her boyfriend. When we arrived we were offered a table and asked for a booth, the manager himself cleaned one for us. But it actually started out pretty bad, the service was slow. It took a while just to get drinks and an appetizer, we had finished our appetizer by the time we finally got the bread. We had the calamari, which was great by the way. We finished the bread and were offered another loaf, but no indication that our food was coming out at that point. Our waiter explained there had been a quick meeting which had caused a delay. Okay, no problem. Then we finished a second loaf, somewhat reluctantly. At that point we were just hungry and had been waiting too long to get actual food. Other tables around us that had been seated way after us were more than halfway through their meals. Eventually the manager, Joe, came out and explained that one our meals had been dropped on the floor accidentally and was being remade, which was causing the extreme delay. It was nice to be given a reason, at least we knew what to expect. Some time later, two of our entrees came out. No indication of the fallen entrée or my meal though. It was about 15 minutes between the first two entrees coming out and the second two. By that point I had eaten calamari, half of one of my MIL's tacos, two glasses of diet soda, a bunch of bread, and honestly couldn't even eat my food once it came out. The manager came by again and informed us that the delay and the time differential in getting our meals was totally unacceptable, no excuses, and that everything would be on the house, which we truly appreciated. That said, the food was outstanding. Like I said, I sampled my MIL's fish tacos and they were just fantastic. My husband had the pecan parmesan-crusted rainbow trout which was hands down the best meal of the night in my opinion, the potatoes au gratin on the side just put it over the top. As for me, I had the shrimp cocktail (ordered the appetizer as my entrée) which was kind of like a shrimp ceviche. I did take a couple of bites before packing it up and I'm looking forward to enjoying it tomorrow as it was delicious. The presentation is also really nice, in a frozen bowl made totally out of ice. It was on the local temporary menu, so definitely get it while you can if you like shrimp. I had also ordered a side of crab fried rice, the bite of that I had was fantastic too. As I mentioned, the calamari was great, probably the best I've had in Tampa. My husband had what I believe was an orchid pineapple martini, which he said was great. My MIL's boyfriend had margaritas which he also enjoyed. To be honest, everything was so good that we almost felt bad having the meal comped because of the service issues. We left a tip, of course, but still felt a little guilty. The difference between a good restaurant and a great restaurant, apart from the food of course, is how they handle these types of situations. Joe handled the situation like a true professional, offering a remedy immediately without making excuses. We really appreciated that, and we will be back again and again(can't wait to have the pecan parm rainbow trout myself!). read more

The Bonefish Grill at this location is my favorite. It's a warm, romantic, and comfortable atmosphere. Huge windows show cast the mini-forest-like scenery outside of the restaurant, totally romantic! Regardless what day of the week it is, it's always busy! The service, much like it's sister, Carraba's is very friendly and professional. You start off with the wonderful warm French Bread and herb dip. It's not called BoneFISH Grill for nothing! The menu (has been cut down) offers many types of fish to choose from, sides, and amazing tropical sauces! Tilapia served with Asian sauce(a bit sweet,tangy), rice, and vegetables is a favorite of mine! Mmmm. Like the menu, their portions has been cut down too and are much smaller than before but still amazing taste! Price is reasonable, check. Cleanliness, check. Good luck on finding a parking lot for dinner! read more

I went to this Bonefish grill on a Sat. Night and also because it is very close to where I live. I have to say this place is well managed....as you get inside you are welcomed by a hostess and shortly after another hostess will walk you to your table. The staff is very professional and knowledgeable about their specials and their dishes in general. The food is very fresh and properly well cooked, the drink was not that great but I requested a Mojito and it wasn't in their drink Menu. Overall I am gonna give a 4 stars to this place... I will go back there again!! read more

Great atmosphere, a tad pricey for this college girl's budget but worth it for the taste and the wonderful service! Definitely order the bang bang shrimp appetizer, you will not regret it! Perfect for date night, I have no doubts I will be returning as soon as possible! read more

I don't hand out too many five stars but this place earned it on my latest trip. I came on a weekend night (Tuesday) and it was full but not overly so. We started with their specialty, the Bang Bang shrimp. In my opinion, this was very very good. I liked the spice and it was enough for four people to munch on. I also had their lobster bisque and it was delicious. For the main course, I had one of their fresh fish choices which included a lobster sauce over a main fish dish. The sauce was complimentary and the meal was very good. I had a caesars salad to go along and they also provided some fresh bread. Our server was attentive and paid attention to us the whole time. I was leery based on the mixed reviews, but I took a chance and for me it was better than I expected and everything from top to bottom was top notch. read more

Poor management experience. Our server Brandon was fine. One of our dinners (Ahi tuna was oxidized) management (female) came over and said they were having trouble with one of their vendors. They were trying to get rid of the tuna. Our server said we were not the first customer to complain about the tuna. They asked what my husband would like instead. He reordered a different fish entree. Obviously, I was completely through with my dinner before his new one came out. No adjustment on our dinner bill or offer. I feel an adjustment of either our appetizer or dessert should have been offered. Obviously NOT read more

Bonefish is probably one of my favorite dinner/date night restaurants in Carrollwood. My husband and I frequently dine here, but our most recent visit was absolutely one of the best! I'll start with our amazing server Delilah! As soon as my husband and I were seated, she came right over to greet us. She actually remembered us from about 2 months ago when we came in and sat in the bar seating area, she remembered our names and noted how much she enjoyed serving us the last time and was grateful we were seated in her section again. Delilah absolutely made our experience so inviting, enjoyable and truly a fun experience. She recommended the $6 Martini special, because she remembered our exact drink orders from our last experience with her (which of course were the delicious martini's!). My favorite drink is the Cosmo, and my husband loves the dirty martini's with fresh olives and blue cheese. The food is always amazing, and I can honestly say we've never had a bad experience with anything we've ordered. Their fish/seafood options are always fresh and uniquely prepared and updated quite often. We decided to go with the "OMG" special for two, which was absolutely perfect for sharing the bang bang shrimp app, fresh fish main entree and three sides. I can't say enough positive feedback, from start to finish, Bonefish is definitely our favorite go to. Thanks again to Delilah for turning "dinner" into a pleasant date night experience! read more

Today I came in dining alone. Early dinner dining about 530pm - with NO wait time. Food was PERFECT & server was prompt. I ordered a side cup of "Corn Chowder & Limp Crab" for starters. It was temperature well & taste exactly to how it's described. CORN CHOWDER - does need more Limp Crab but 3-4 bits will do for now. For dinner I ordered Atlantic Salmon with Broccoli & Rice. The salmon was cooked absolutely perfect! Very buttery & not over cooked. I did however request the broccoli to be cook folk tender because "that's the way I like it". 4 stars because I wish my server mention dessert which she didn't & the ice green tea I had throughout was just OK. I will definitely will be back to this location. On a side note- try their "Bang bang shrimp" . I've been here on many occasions both big & small parties so call them if you need to. I really have never TOGO here so I honestly can't suggest. The overall noise level is moderate depending on time of course but definitely lower & more relaxing then Outback. To highlight - save room for dessert. read more

Always enjoy going here. It's my favorite chain restaurant. The seafood is always fresh. Bang bang shrimp is a must! Everything I've ever had here is full of flavor and the service is top notch. read more

This may sound crazy, but oh, the power of advertising. Bonefish Grill's new TV ads are really inviting! My congratulations goes out to whoever wrote and produced their latest ads. After seeing them (the third time), my husband and I have vowed to go to Bonefish every Wednesday night for a cocktail and some bang bang shrimp. Really tasty! read more

Mothers day brunch at Bonefish is getting to be a staple for us. One of the best brunches in Tampa. The Bang Bang shrimp are great.

We love Bonefish in Carrollwood! Joe Diroma is a excellent owner and his high standards and expectations are demonstrated through his employees. Service is always exceptional and the food and beverages are always consistently on point! We love coming in for happy hours for the bar bites menu as well as enjoying delicious dinners! If you every leave less than satisfied it is your own issue. Speak up and let a manager know if something isn't just as you expected and I assure you they will make it right! read more

For a chain, this place was pretty nice. The service was wonderful and the food was delicious. My partner and I got a few drinks and some main courses, as well as dessert. The drinks were pretty good, not too strong and the choices were reasonable. For dessert we got something with nuts (can't remember). It was pretty salty. I jokingly stated this to the server and she immediately took it off, no questions. I thought that was very nice on her part. Overall, atmosphere was great and service was spot on. Would definitely go back here to celebrate a promotion or for a nice intimate date night. read more

I've been to this location a couple of times for Brunch and I was pleasantly surprised each time. Both times we have been our servers have been spot on and very attentive. My group always partakes in the Endless Bubbles Brunch which includes bottomless Mimosas and Bellinis. The Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer is out of this world and has to be my most favorite item on the menu. Each time I have gone, I have ordered something different whether it be from the Brunch Menu or off the Regular Menu and I have never been disappointed. read more

Great restaurant; a little price though but for the service and food it's worth it. I've been here a lot and usually only go on special occasions due to the prices. Cocktails are just average which is why 4 stars instead of 5. read more

Always good experience overall, took one start out because they need to check the seats. The one we had was very low and had some wire malfunctioning. read more

Very pleased with service, good and many option. Impressed with their app that allows you to pay right at the table without having to hand over your credit card. read more

Really tasty food! I would highly recommend the eggs Benedict! The olive oil and bread before the meal is also great. As is the coffee. The service was good as well. I would recommend. :) Fast, reliable, good food, moderately priced. read more

Always an excellent meal. Came for the Bang Wednesday menu. Also ordered the Tilapia Imperial which was delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. read more
