    Central Diner in downtown St Pete expanded to this location. Their prices are always reasonable, and this location is the same. Seating is comfortable, and service is good. Dishes are not fancy, but it is comfort food.

    Breakfast!!

    Great breakfast and great service Prices very good. It's a small homey place Close to the beach and St Pete

    The potatoes with bell peppers, and onions

    The food was presented very nicely. It was horrible. I had the catfish breakfast my husband had the fish was not done. The cheese grits was the worst I've ever had no flavor. Taste anything in them I would not advise anyone to eat here the worst breakfast ever.!!!!!

    WARNING-VERY HONEST REVIEW…read more We eat out a lot and mostly leave positive reviews but we can't in good faith give Breeze a good review. First, we arrived at 12 noon, put in our name with Sofia who gave us a 20-30 minute wait time. When we returned 25 mins later, the party in front of us was complaining about waiting an hour yet she told them we were before them and she didn't have their name. She proceeded to seat them discretely before us. After 50+ minutes we said something. She told us to leave a bad review and to leave the restaurant. We had waited so long and lost opportunities to put in our name at other restaurants so we decided to wait. After an hour, we said something. We had watched another table waiting the last 20 minutes for their bill so they could pay and leave. Finally the manger came out and said no worries, we would have a table and he got us seated quickly. He assigned Nate as our waiter. We were optimistic that we were on our way to a great brunch as one person in our party had come to the restaurant and had a good experience before and so we were hopeful. We immediately placed our order since we had time to review the menu, we asked for waters and drinks. Water never came until we asked again. Silverware never came until we asked for silverware. . When the food did come it was meh. Crepe was dry, wrap was cold, best part of the meal was the Bloody Marys. The table next to us overheard our conversation and said they were also having an awful experience with the staff and would not return. Nate then told us we were difficult for no reason. When we had asked for the bill he told us he didn't divide it in 2 bills because he did it on purpose. He also said "my name is Nate, go ahead and write a bad review about me". We never intended to write any reviews. It was just an awful experience. We will never return and it would have taken such a small effort to make amends once we were seated, but instead the staff was rude and instigated patrons who were giving the restaurant business. Our community is small, we support only local businesses, but not this one.

We walked over here with our pups and sat outside on the side walk. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, giving them water and a dog menu. We quickly ordered some drinks and the coke was crisp and fresh! Top tier, in my opinion. We were undecided between ordering breakfast or lunch but once she spouted off the specials - we were hooked. We ordered the pride bagel sandwich and I'm still thinking about how delicious it is. We also ordered the biscuits and gravy which my husband polished off. We even got a little turkey sausage for the pooches as a reward for behaving! I love this place and will definitely recommend it to those in the area.

When we visited, it was very busy and buzzing, but the service never missed a beat. Our server was friendly, on top of her game and offered helpful recommendations. Despite the crowd, our food arrived in a timely manner and hot. My husband ordered the eggs Benedict. The eggs were cooked perfectly-when you cut into them, the yolk oozed out exactly the way a perfectly poached egg should. That said, he felt there wan't quite enough hollandaise sauce, and the sauce leaned a little too lemony for his taste. The English muffin also could have been toasted a bit more. The hash browns, however, were the star of the dish-perfectly crisp and well seasoned. I went with the Key West BLT with blackened mahi-mahi, served on a toasted sourdough with garlic aioli. The fish was blackened perfectly-well seasoned with lots of flavor-and paired nicely with the sandwich. I originally planned to order the house chips, but they were not available. Our server recommended the French fries instead because of their unique shape, and she was right-they were crispy and nicely seasoned. Most of the seating is outdoors under umbrellas, which adds to the laid-back Florida vibe. Overall, this is a lively neighborhood spot that feels full of locals who clearly love coming here. We'll be back to try more dishes.

I had dined at Mademoiselle Paris for breakfast with my Wing Man Gary a month ago, and had seen that they serve Snails on their dinner menu, so this was a no brainer. I made reservations for Thursday at 6:30 pm. When we arrived we were pleased to see that they had a guitarist playing tunes from the 70's on the balcony, but we opted for an indoor table for the AC. Started off with happy hour French Pinot Noir at $9.50 a glass ($3 off for happy hour), Then ordered the Appetizer + Entree special at $39.90. Choosing the Escargot for the Appetizer and the Beef Burgundy for the entree. Cuz also got the Lobster Bisque ($14.90) as well. My meal came to $60 including tip. Worth every penny. Service from Reinna was on point and we had a great meal. Cuz told me I had nailed her request for Escargot so the meal was a huge success.

We were hesitant since I read a lot of bad reviews on yelp but we had a great experience. Our server, Kate knew wine especially after living in San Francisco so it was fun talking with her about the wine list. We started off with a white burgundy like french chardonnay. Appetizers of escargot & foie gras - outstanding, definitely a wow! Entrees: My honey had the steak with foie gras and seasonal vegetables w/roasted potatoes. His steak perfectly cooked. I had the steak frites - omg, the french fries were the best! I had a choice of sauce: blue cheese or pepper corn, so being glutinous, I asked for a small bit of both, wow. they were fabulous! Erin & staff were very friendly and quick to accommodate. Shout out to Erin for checking in on us often to ensure a wonderful experience. We noticed they have two chefs/cooks in the kitchen to accommodate. Loved they were able to accommodate my gluten-free needs. The GF bread was grilled and delicious, so good! Beautiful remodel with the modern and bright and fresh colors. Very hip & elegant. We look forward to coming back. We noticed they have a great happy hour with live music outside.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated and very clean. We visited for breakfast and we really enjoyed our meal. I had the Veggie Omelet with pepper jack cheese. It was large, fresh, and came with a nice serving of home fries. I added a bagel with cream cheese for $4. You can also add toast for $2.50. The coffee was hot and fresh, and our server, Joseph, kept bringing refills. There is lots of parking on the side and in the back. This is a wonderful breakfast spot on the beach!

We ordered the following: Spicy marg Grilled mahi mahi tacos Chicken tender platter The spicy marg was good and had a nice kick to it. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the mahi mahi. Definitely not stingy. It came with tortilla chips and a small container of salsa. The flavor was light. My husband got the chicken tender platter which came with a generous amount of chicken and fries. I helped him eat some of the fries which were cooked pretty well. Coconut Charlie's is a great, convenient option especially if you're spending the day at the beach!
