    A Mexican beer with a tequila shot! Arriba!
    Edward P.

    Perfect place for a craft cocktail. We had Devon as our mixologist. He handled our small group inquired about what it was that they like to drink and made sure they got the beverage the would enjoy. As for me I stuck with the beer and tequila. The staff were super friendly and engaging. You can never go wrong with this place.

    Love the owner.. unfortunately really bad management too bad. I asked for a drink and to keep it open and i wanted to cash out using apple pay. Then he immediately rings my card and cashes me out. He must have said something to the other bar tenders because they all started being really rude to me. I told them I was just there to see a little of the Thursday Night Football game. They didn't put it on until a couple asked for the game next to me. And sarcastically told them I had been asking a lot. I even asked for the manager and they refused to. You need to be respectful of your locals. Train your staff better. Small bar with no food.

    Best espresso martini in town! I love this bar from the decor to the drinks and the amazing staff. It does get busy every night of the week which I love and the staff is always attentive and moving quick.

    Trivia: One could legally get bourbon during prohibition of your doctor did what? On the recommendation of a bartender at another restaurant, I walked down to this cozy spot on a slow Wednesday night in the middle of summer. And....It was okay. I was sort of tossed between three different bartenders until someone finally took my order. "I'll be right with you, and then 2 minutes later a different bartender, I'll be right with you, followed by a third who asked "have you been helped?" Which would have been fine if there hadn't been more empty seats in the place than full. I asked about allocated bottles of bourbon thinking a place like this must have something abnormal or rare. But the bartender just laughed and said he'd let me know if that ever happens. It wasn't rude, just weird. This sort of put me off, but I pushed forward with his recommended bourbon for an Old Fashioned. And it was good. But the ambiance sort of steered me away and I decided to go somewhere else after one.

    I stopped in here pretty late and was able to see someone get a birthday champagne, which really made that party happy. They were out of a few options I wanted for drinks, but the one I ended up with (don't recall) was really good. The layout is interesting and it was a fun place to hang out for a bit. The bartenders were good and made a strong drink.

    Stopped in for a drink after having a friend's birthday dinner downtown. First, let me say the staff -- AMAZING. They overheard us cheers to her birthday and they ended up surprising our group with a complimentary bottle of bub. We were so stuffed that we didn't drink it, but the gesture was just too kind. After shots, most of us got an espresso martini as our final drink and we all really loved it. Tasted great, not watered down, and just the right amount of foam. My friends and I all want to return for another round! Highly recommend.

    I wanted to leave another review and not leave it at a one star because of one incident with a rude doorman. Wouldn't be fair to base my review off that, although not sure I'd come in. Despite the ridiculous dress code here where you are not allowed to wear sandals or a tank top if you are a guy... the drinks here are one of my favorite. Bartenders were nice too from what I remember. But that rule they have with the dress code should go.. we live in Florida where it is hot and humid, what do you expect. It's located downtown next to regular bars. It doesn't make sense to me and is disappointing.

    This is such a great bar. It's hard to call it a bar because you get to experience great mixology in drinks, not your average Joe cocktail. If you love trying new drinks where the bartenders have a great knowledge in flavors and creativity this is the place. I asked for a gin drink that was more dry and he asked if I have had egg whites, I said no but let's go. The drink he made was creamy and flavorful that brought out the botanical flavors. We also tried their specialty drinks- the wakame- that was such un unusual but delicious drink that left me craving more, and the snack- that wasn't as decadent as you would assume it would be since it's suppose to have peanut butter flavors, lastly we tried the windward punch which they made in house and it was a mellow cognac that didn't burn at all. We put this in a list of must return to in the future.

    Yessss please!! Went for dinner at a place around the corner and our server recommended this place for the espresso martinis. Delicious! Frothy til the last drop! Service was quick and friendly and the atmosphere is everything! Must stop by in St Pete!

    Was in Saint Pete to see a play in the park and stumbled on this interesting spot. Really fun cocktail bar with a cool menu . Bartender was on his game laid back and very knowledgeable. Cool vibe with a eclectic decor . I will definitely come back with friends next time I'm in the area .

    Truly Unforgettable Culinary Journey at Red Thread…read more Our dinner at Red Thread was nothing short of spectacular -- a five-star experience from the moment we stepped through the door until the final sip of our after-dinner drink. We visited to celebrate a milestone birthday, and the team not only met but exceeded every expectation, weaving subtle, thoughtful surprises into the evening that made us feel truly special. The atmosphere is opulent yet completely approachable -- warm, intimate, and alive with cultural richness. You can feel the intention behind every detail: the plush banquettes adorned with intricately embroidered throw pillows, the soft glow of lantern-style lighting, and the perfectly placed gold-tipped cocktail picks that make even the smallest moment feel curated. It's elegant without pretense, like being welcomed into a beautifully kept secret along the Silk Road. Service was led by Katie and Elijah, who were nothing short of exceptional. Their warmth, precision, and deep knowledge of both the menu and the restaurant's rich aesthetic elevated the entire evening. They guided us with confidence, shared stories behind the dishes, and ensured every need was met before we even voiced it. Now, the food -- where do we begin? Red Thread delivers flavors that are bold, layered, and deeply authentic. We started with the spread and small bites platter, and it was immediately clear we were in for something extraordinary. The tabbouleh was bright and herb-forward, with finely chopped parsley, tomato, and bulgur kissed by lemon -- a perfect balance of freshness and zing. The falafel were golden-crisp on the outside, tender within, and served with a bright mint yogurt. So delish! For our mains: the salmon, seasoned with fragrant za'atar and resting atop creamy spanakorizo (spinach and rice), was cooked to buttery perfection. The addition of crumbled feta and a cooling lemon yogurt sauce brought a bright, tangy contrast that elevated every bite. The pork chop, served with tri-color potatoes and glazed in a rich port beurre rouge with rosemary and a whisper of parmesan, was magnificent -- juicy, deeply savory, and beautifully seared. And the beef short rib? Unbelievably tender, with a warm curry base, sweet-spicy melon kimchi, and saffron rice that perfumed the air. The cardamom chèvre melted into the mix, adding a creamy, floral depth that was nothing short of inspired. Every dish told a story -- of distant lands, ancient trade routes, and a chef who clearly treats spice like sacred heirloom. To know these flavors are crafted with spices imported directly from the regions that inspired them explains the unmatched authenticity in every bite. Red Thread stands alone in St. Petersburg -- not just in flavor, but in feeling. We'll be back -- no question -- to explore their brunch and dive deeper into this beautiful narrative they've created on a plate. To everyone reading: This is the kind of restaurant that deserves to be discovered, celebrated, and filled to capacity every single night. Go. Taste. Feel. Red Thread isn't just dinner -- it's a journey. And it's not to be missed.

    We finally checked out Red Thread and it was delicious!…read more Great ambiance (both indoors and their outdoor courtyard, can't go wrong with either option) that fits the "silk road" vibe, with awesome food and friendly service. We started with the dip trio (beet hummus, olive tapenade, and babaganoush with fluffy pita triangles), which was fantastic. Each dip had an awesome flavor, especially the beet hummus. We also got the tahini, date, and cashew salad and loved it. My husband isn't a salad guy and said he'd only have a bite, but then he ate half. The rich and spicy tahini mixed with the sweet date, creamy cashew, and fresh/crisp salad was such a great flavor combo. I will note, they go heavy with the tahini on the salad, but we weren't complaining. I got the zataar salmon for my main. A deliciously spiced zataar crust on top of a delicately flaky salmon made for a wonderful meal. My husband got the kafta en croute, which were ground lamb/beef meatballs surrounded by a flaky pastry and topped with pomegranate over a tahini sauce. I kept stealing bites (which was fine, there was plenty to share) it was so good and such a unique entrée! For drinks, they have uniquely spiced cocktails and mocktails. The drinks took longer to arrive than the food, but they were worth the wait. We were too stuffed for dessert, but next time we want to try their tiramisu (made with Turkish coffee and cardamom). We had a wonderful meal and will be back! The sad thing was that half the restaurant was empty. We think it's a unique addition to DTSP and is definitely worth checking out.

She poked her head inside, she nodded back and the decision was made to visit COPA without a word. It was bustling on the inside with market goers passing through, but it was controlled chaos on the other side of the counter. The workers knew exactly what they were doing and even in busy time of the market they were quick to buss tables, get ordered items to customers fast and the bathroom was pristinely clean. The bumping A/C provided instant relief as we claimed the stools by the bar. My friends and I quickly agreed, this place is an absolute gem. So gorgeously decorated and the drinks, the mocktails, the pastry items, the food were beautiful and delicious. It really appeared they did everything well here. Service was impeccable and the side salad I ordered was so crisp and refreshing. Honestly 5 stars all around. The food, service, atmosphere and drinks were sensational and exceeded all expectations.

    We stopped in to check out Noble Tavern after I read a wonderful write-up for the place in the…read moreTampa Bay Times. We came away very, very impressed! Some things to note. The restaurant is located in the ground floor of the Tru by Hilton Hotel. Parking wasn't an issue during our visit because it was an early Thursday evening, so street parking on Central was available, but I can imagine it being a little challenging on busier nights. Loved the quirky, kind of all-over-the-place decor here. Vintage fixtures and mismatched furnishings all come together to deliver a warm, charming space that feels like anything-but a hotel restaurant bar. Lots of love for the cocktails here, too. We tried the Golden Hour, the Metal Plane, and the Strawberry Paloma. Golden Hour was my favorite, though the flavor wasn't quite consistent between my first and second ones. Also, they make a VERY good Espresso Martini for anyone who enjoys those. For food, we tried the Beef Empanadas, the Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich, and the 1650 Burger. All were tasty, but I think the burger turned out to be the best bang for the buck -- it's a huge portion for only $13 and it's delicious! The chicken sandwich was tasty, but the Gochujang sauce was a little sweeter than I thought it would be. Lots to like about the empanadas, too -- the beef is deliciously seasoned and the outer pastry is light and crusty. Great appetizer or meal, depending on how hungry you happen to be. To top it all off, we had very friendly service from start to finish. We'll definitely be back!

    Stumbled upon the Noble Tavern while wandering St. Pete with a group of friends after a Rays game…read moreat Tropicana Field. It was definitely a good choice, as places closer to the ballpark were really busy and much louder (not conducive to carrying on a conversation). I appreciated all the unique paintings and decor, as they gave off a great upscale pub vibe. To start off, we ordered the jumbo crispy wings (4.5/5), which were of excellent quality although not all of us were fans of the flavor of the dry rub. I ordered the 1650 burger (3.75/5) which was a good, quality burger, however it was a bit on the dry side (not for those who prefer a more grilled or greasy burger) and I wasn't the biggest fan of the cheese (the waitress kept saying that menu items couldn't be customized, which I found a bit odd). All the dessert options looked great, so we shared the cinnamon roll bread pudding (4.5/5) and carrot cake (3.75/5). Both were of decent quality, but I'm very picky with regards to carrot cake recipes, and it wasn't in my wheelhouse for what I prefer in a carrot cake. Service (4/5) was generally attentive and friendly throughout the meal. We all agreed that Noble Tavern was a good dinner option in St. Pete, and had a nice atmosphere such that we'd return if in this area again.
