    Breakfast Croissant with Grits
    George C.

    After driving by several times in the last few months and getting a couple recommendations from friends, a friend and I tried it this morning for breakfast. Unfortunately, the food did fall a little short of the hype. I will say the service was excellent. It's a nice little beach restaurant, a little cramped inside with some outside seating. The breakfast croissant sandwich with grits was average at best. My Spanish Omelette was dry and the peppers were really undercooked. Mushrooms were almost nonexistent. The most biggest disappointment were the sausage patties- incredibly dry and gritty. Overall 3 stars- two except for the excellent service. Maybe lunch is better? Some day I'll give it a try.

    We got here and were seated immediately, and our food came within 10 minutes of ordering. The food was very tasty, I got an omelette croissant sandwich and it was really fresh and delicious. The home fries are nicely seasoned and very crispy. The ambiance is cute, a pretty typical beachy touristy place. The parking can be tricky in this area so just something to keep in mind. The food is pretty pricy for what it is but that's not surprising for a beach restaurant. Overall yummy and has some unique offerings!

    Showed up Sunday for brunch & this place was busy! We got seated right away, even though when we first signed it there were about 8 tables in front of us. The menu has a variety of food options so anybody will be satisfied here. The food was delicious, perfect breakfast spot. The potions were big & everything had great flavor. The biscuits & gravy were amazing! Highly recommend coming here while in St Pete!

    We heard many good reviews of La Croisette, especially from a French born woman who worked down the street from it! We went for a late breakfast/brunch and were not disappointed. My wife had the French crêpe with bananas and chocolate, and an egg on the side for protein. I had heard wonderful things about their croissant French toast. So I ordered it and again it was fantastic. I got some sausage along the side. They do have Texas toast style French toast too, and cinnamon bun French toast! We sat outside under the canopy and the atmosphere was fantastic. They are only open for breakfast until 2. We may go back this week while we're in St Pete Beach. Their menu is extensive with crêpes and eggs and your standard American style breakfast along with some lunch sandwiches. Highly recommended!

    Great atmosphere, good breakfast spot. The wait staff was friendly and great. Spoke to owner about her French home, very friendly and nice ! Close to the beach also.

    poached egg! (eggs Benedict)

    Such a gem in St. Pete - I will def be stopping here every time I visit the area. Sometimes a sweet breakfast is not it for me but La Croisette knows what they are doing. They have very friendly staff and seating inside and outside. From delicious, fresh fruit on the crepes, to the famous tasty, well-seasoned potatoes, La Croisette was IT for me! Definitely a great brunch spot. Will def return and try more!

    Easy parking, handicapped accessible, and I've been coming here for the past 30 odd years. After rebuilding the restaurant from the last two hurricanes, La Croisette is up to full steam and running full throttle. The staff is attentive as ever. Going into the restaurant around 8:00 AM on a Wednesday morning, the place was slow to steady My friend ordered the Paris Express which consisted of poached eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, Swiss cheese home fries and a hollandaise sauce on top On the side was a croissant. With a sweet tea. I ordered two scrambled eggs, home fries, and toast. With a coffee. Our orders were quick to come out, and my dear friend loved the poached eggs combo. My two eggs arrived, hard scrambled unseasoned, and very flavorless. The home fries look like they were deep-fried from a bag. They were the square cut pieces of potato that were uninviting. I put hot sauce and ketchup on them along with some salt, and they were edible. But here's my bitch, what's with the one slice of toast when this breakfast is $9.00?!!!! Anywhere in the world you go for breakfast you get two slices of toast. Is this place too bougie to give me two pieces of toast? I loved our server, as she knows the town, the product, and the joys of life. So with all said, this is still the go to place for breakfast, and also for lunches as I see the half pound burger is a special. To the owners, two freaking pieces of toast, please. And no, I'm not gonna pay a dollar for another slice. So for this you lose a star. I will return, but I want two pieces of toast, please

    Sausage Benedict
    Brennan S.

    La Croisette blends casual beach diner and French cuisine in a tasteful, pleasant way. I was super impressed by the friendliness of the staff. I went early in the morning and the waitresses were literally sunshine. The food was equally happy. The sausage Benedict i got was salty, savory and the perfect portion size. I opted for blueberries on the side and they were fresh and tart- yummy! Highly recommend La Croisette.

    Bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwich and mushroom, onion and Swiss cheese omelet with home fries.
    Jodi R.

    This was just ok for us. Food was ok - "home fries" were dry and over seasoned. Our waitress was grumpy - maybe she was just having a bad day. The coffee was good.

    Kaila K.

    We found this cute little diner on Yelp and had to give it a try! The line was out the door on a beautiful sunny Florida morning, but well worth the wait. The owner was kind and friendly, quickly bussing and cleaning tables as they left to make room for us, and our server was the friendliest lady we have met down here! The breakfast - to. die. for! The flavors were fresh, delicious.

    Casual dining, comfortable and safe.
    Arnesto S.

    So, I heard of this place as the best breakfast in town. Well it's is... Christina was great and served us with a smile. Very friendly place with amazing folks that seem to like it here. Remember to support your local grubbery so we both starve...

    Croissant egg sandwich with House potatoes
    Katrina P.

    A cinnamon roll.. but turned into French toast, sooooo delicious. The croissants are buttery and crispy on the outside, yet soft on the inside. The bacon was cooked to perfection, crispy, not one chewy part which is exactly how I like bacon. The little potatoes were perfectly seasoned. Overall, a must go when in St Pete

    Croissant Chicken Sandwich
    Hannah V.

    I've seen this place a few times driving in town and finally got the chance to try it out. I wish I've gone sooner! I got the fried chicken croissant sandwich and a bit disappointed when it came out with chicken tenders on it. The potatoes were the star of the meal. Very well seasoned and crispy. We got a crepe to share that was more toppings than crepe it was so thin. Overall, I'd be back to enjoy another meal here with the outdoor seating and friendly staff.

They had a fresh catch of grouper that day, so we decided to try the grouper nuggets. They're market price, but absolutely worth it. Even our friend preferred them over his fried fish. The batter was light, crispy, and delicious. Our kids ordered the bacon cheese fries and loved them. Just a heads-up: they use a nacho cheese sauce rather than shredded cheese, which some people may prefer to know ahead of time. Our friend from Massachusetts ordered the lobster sub (also market price) and said it was worth every penny. My husband and I split the grouper nuggets and the Philly cheesesteak. The bread is brought in from up north, and our server's recommendation did not disappoint. The sandwich was rich, flavorful, and one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the onion rings. They use a beer batter, which wasn't our favorite, but that's more of a personal preference than a criticism. Overall, we'd definitely return if we're in the area again. The only downside was parking--$29.99 for two hours is pretty brutal. Thankfully, the food and atmosphere helped make up for it.

Although the restaurant has beautiful waterfront seating, we chose to sit inside since it was very hot outside. We started with the Louisiana Seafood Gumbo (bowl, $13.97), which was delicious. The Chicken Wings ($13.89 for 6 pieces) were outstanding and crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. They were definitely my favorite dish of the meal. We also tried the Shrimp-N-Grits ($27.97), which was a unique combination of Argentine red shrimp, creamy cheese grits, sausage, tomatoes, scallions, and other ingredients. It was flavorful and different from anything we've had before. The Jambalaya ($21.93) was just okay. It had plenty of ingredients, but it was a little too salty for my taste. The service was excellent, and the staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant also has a full bar and, I believe, live music in the evenings, making it a great place to relax. We'll definitely come back the next time we're in St. Pete Beach.

Driving here, I didn't know what to expect or realize the layout or scope of this place, Island Grand at TradeWinds. It's a four star resort! There was a guard at a formal gate and a sign with significant parking costs. I just told the guard I was eating lunch with a friend at Pete's and he kindly let me in. I should have asked for directions because it turns out this place is a 40 acre resort with multiple parking areas and restaurants. All good! I walked in the main entrance and the gentleman at a desk on the right kindly gave me accurate and friendly directions. I was nicely greeted at the entrance to Pete's, the kind ladies acknowledged my reservation and directed me to where my friend was already sitting. We chatted and the waitress Rosalie introduced herself and took care of us. She was very gracious and helpful and answered our questions about the place. We learned she'd worked in the past at the legendary Hub in Tampa, as well as a few other places! Respect! Thank you for your excellent service Rosalie! You gave us time and space to chat and eat but we're also there at the right moments to take care of us. My chopped salad with salmon added was a nice size portion, very fresh, and the salmon was cooked perfectly, not overcooked as it often is. We enjoyed our meal, took our time, relaxed, chatted, got our checks and found our way back to our cars. It turns out there is parking much closer to the restaurant. Pete's is right on the huge St Pete beach with large windows. But, it's perfectly enclosed so the AC was very welcome on a 93F summer day. Life is good with a delicious lunch at a resort during off-season!

    SOLID 5 STARS!…read more Actually the restaurant is 4 stars but bartender Rosalie makes it 5 stars easy. She's cute, witty, and laughs easily. Rosalie told us she earned her bartending chops at The Hub dive bar, which means not only can she mix ANY drink, she can handle any customer, too. I figured I needed some potassium on this blisteringly hot day so she made a Banana Daiquiri ($15). It Hit the spot! All-Star Elite Dave W chose this restaurant for our monthly get together and it did not disappoint. We had 11am reservations at the bar (I'm a bar fly type guy). When I arrived a little before 11:00 both Rosalie & the manager told me they change from the breakfast menu to the lunch menu EXACTLY at 11:00 and if we wanted breakfast we'd have to put in our orders right away. We assured them that the lunch menu was fine, But it was nice of them to inquire and was typical of the intimate service provided. I ordered the portobello melt ($15) and Dave got a Salmon Salad. Both dishes were tasty. The air conditioning was cold, and the views of the beach were hot. Good views of the Chippies on the beach (If you like that sort of thing). Great meal with great conversation = Priceless!
