    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.

    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.

    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.

The pina colada was just ok - if they have an option for a floater, I'll be choosing that option next time. The menu itself had other great options so I'll just have to try something else next time to see what these other reviews are raving about. Overall, the items I got weren't spectacular or something you HAVE to have. But if you are on the beach, didn't bring food, and are really hungry, it gets the job done.

The service in this hotel is very good overall. The pools and the beach are superb. We chose this resort as a special anniversary vacation, and this is part of the lower review. We ultimately felt the hotel discount promotion and phone sales was misleading. Ambiguous communication led us to believe we would receive a free night, however we later realized and were told that the discount was already built in to our price, although no sign of discount was found anywhere on our invoice. I'm self employed and I've managed business for 35 years, and I've not seen discounts that don't show on an invoice. Se beware of promotional discount offers as it may not be what you expect, and you'll be left with no way to disprove the phantom discount because it's not on your invoice, apparently is just spoken. Overall service was very good. We had a minor blip in the maritana, which was the wrong dessert brought to us, and presented as "happy anniversary" with a chocolate that said that, but was strangely charged to us. The waitress handled it like a pro. I would advise the chef to either ignore birthdays and anniversaries and that sort of thing, or offer a small free dessert. But definitely don't bring out a "happy anniversary" dessert then charge for it. Also had overcooked hard poached eggs at the society table - no big deal just no runny yolk. If not for the price, who cares? But with such a great menu and fantastic chef, they should get eggs right. No discount offered. But I ate it so... All of our food was great, and really well developed and complete dishes as if it were Michelin rated. Cheers to the chef. Just two very minor fails. Overall it was a nice stay but we won't go back mainly because ultimately they didn't step up over a $600ish discrepancy over a 5 night stay. Look at my reviews. It's very rare I don't write 5 stars. I'm not one of those people that gives a bunch of bad reviews. The highlight of this resort is the beach, the pools, and the menu. Service is good overall. So definitely some good.

There's dedicated parking for the restaurant behind the building in the lot, plus metered street parking and garages within less than a block. The main entrance is on the side of the building, on 5th Street S just off 6th Avenue S. Outdoor seating is available, but I personally wouldn't choose it, sitting right next to a busy intersection with constant traffic and exhaust isn't my idea of enjoyable. That said, the interior ambiance alone is worth the visit. Inspired by the historic George Peabody Library and part of the Oxford Commons Hospitality group, the design is quirky, fun. The thoughtful mix of bookshelves, warm lighting, rich browns and deep blues, and the seamless blend of library, bar, and dining space creates a truly special atmosphere, especially if you love books. We visited as part of a large group for a special occasion dinner. They accommodated us on very short notice after our original plans changed due to possible rain and outside seating only at our first reservation, which was impressive. Our waitress was fantastic, she handled our entire table (and others) by herself with no buss person and still managed every order and individual request with genuine care and efficiency. I haven't tried breakfast, lunch, the morning coffee/pastry take-out window, or the bar yet, but the dinner experience was excellent. Fair warning: this is not a budget-friendly spot. If you're watching every dollar or might resent the food due to prices, it's probably not the place for you. It's ideal for special occasions or when you want to enjoy a meal without worrying about the cost, each dish/cocktail is in line with upscale dining in the area,it does add up quickly with drinks, apps, entrees, and sides, though I read they have happy hour. We ordered appetizers (shared), I also had the opportunity to sip a few cocktails (when offered), I also shared entrees, and sides with some of our group. Everything we tried was very good, there were not stand-outs, all was scrumptious, from the start of appetizers: the warm bread with its delicious butter spread, the roasted cauliflower, the spicy crispy shrimp, the Steak Frites, the perfectly cooked French fries, and the sautéed spinach, all of which I had a taste of personally. The portions looked modest on the plates but were surprisingly filling, many of us had leftovers to take home. We finished with the warm cookie and ice cream, which was hands-down amazing, especially with the perfect touch of flaky salt on top. The cocktails were strong and creative. My first choice (suggested by the waitress) wasn't quite to my taste, it was too tart and strong for me, but she immediately removed it from the bill and happily brought me something else I enjoyed much more. Overall, The Library delivers a memorable experience, amazing ambiance, a beautiful setting, attentive service, and excellent food. Next time I'm trying breakfast.

The restaurant is uniquely decorated with floor-to-ceiling books and those old-world aristocratic portraits that make you feel like you've stepped into a quaint literary hideaway. We were seated in a cozy corner with high-backed cushioned chairs that felt like our own little private nook. Perfect for a special occasion that's kind of low key. Even though the restaurant was quite busy, the noise level was surprisingly low, which we really appreciated. It made it easy to relax and enjoy our time without feeling overwhelmed. Service was also great - attentive, friendly, and well-paced despite the crowd. Now, the menu... it was honestly hard to choose because so many items sounded amazing. We ended up ordering the crispy Brussels Sprouts and the warmed Burrata to start. The Brussels Sprouts were flavorful and enjoyable, though I personally would have loved just a bit more char on them for that extra depth. The burrata, on the other hand, was packed with flavor - especially if you're a fan of sun-dried tomatoes, this is definitely a must-try. The drinks were a standout, my lychee martini was light, smooth, and refreshing, while my husband's old fashioned was bold and perfectly crafted. He is quite the stickler for a good old fashioned. For our mains, my husband kept it classic with a bacon cheeseburger and fries, which he really enjoyed. It had that delicious smash burger style that hits the spot. I ordered the Chicken Paillard, and it was absolutely delicious--light, fresh, and full of flavor without feeling heavy. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and agreed that we'd definitely come back. There were still so many dishes we were tempted to try, and that's always a great sign. The Library is a unique and memorable spot that's perfect for brunch, date nights, or any special occasion. Give it a try!

    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.

The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Their pork belly and croissant French toast are a must have!! 10/10

    SOLID 5 STARS! My…read moreniece, Laura, and her partner, Rich, are visiting from Chicago. She wanted a restaurant with outdoor seating, a view of the water, an excellent wine list, fine dining selections, AND open on a Monday night. I cried for Help from Yelp. 82 Degrees nailed all 5 criteria. At 6:15pm We were able to make an on-line reservation for three people for 6:30pm. Be careful to only park in spots designated for the restaurant or you will be towed. You can't miss the parking signs because they are plastered on every parking spot. We arrived and were immediately shown to a choice rooftop table just in time to enjoy a fine view of the sunset on the Gulf. After the sun set the bartender asked the diners at the dozen or so tables if they wanted the huge glass windows closed, and since it was starting to get chilly everyone agreed. My niece is very knowledgeable about wine, so she took charge of the wine list. After discussing the (Admittedly small, but well selected) list with the sommelier Laura chose the Iron + Sand Cabernet Sauvignon, a well-regarded, bold red wine from Paso Robles, California (4.8 Stars rating, I looked it up). She must have liked it, because she drank two glasses. Later on, she ordered a Pinot Grigio to go with her entree but I've forgotten the name. She also chose specialty drinks for Rich and I that were tasty and had a nice kick to them, but I don't remember their names either. I would have taken a picture of the drinks menu but my niece wouldn't let go of the list! (Which also meant we couldn't see the prices either, but like the saying goes: If you have to ask, you can't afford it!) It took us a while to study the menu. Just like the wine list, the menu has limited selections but offers excellent choices. It was hard to make a decision! We started off sharing Crab Cakes ($18) and Lobster Bruschetta ($21) appetizers, and we also shared an order of the Lobster Bisque ($15). All three of us agreed that the appetizers were yummy, but the Lobster Bisque was worth the trip all by itself! For my entree I ordered the Wild Caught Snapper with mango pineapple salsa and broccolini ($36) and Truffle Fries ($9). Rich went with the Grouper BLT ($26) and Laura chose the Parmesan Cream Pasta ($26) (Which was why she needed a white wine to go with her entree). Portions did not appear to be large, yet none of us were able to finish our entrees, leaving plenty for Rich and Laura to take home in biodegradable containers for a midnight snack. I'm sorry I wasn't quick enough to get pictures of the entrees. Rich and Laura are not used to snapping pics before digging in, but I can tell you they were all well presented. Even though we were all full, we couldn't resist sharing a slice of: SALTED CARAMEL BUTTERFINGER CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE!!! ($12). Just the name tells you everything you need to know. While Rich and I were dueling with our forks, Laura swooped in and ate most of the dessert, which is totally unfair but is a legitimate female perk so there was nothing we could do. Next time we'll order more than one slice! Our perky waitress was extremely busy serving everyone but managed to keep the entire restaurant happy with her service. I don't think I saw her standing still for more than a couple seconds. Didn't get her name, either, but I'm sure the excellent tip told her we were pleased.
