    It could be better. I did like the fried shrimp very much, it appeared to be hand battered, but the fries came out of a bag (confirmed with the bartender) and the fry fell off the scallops. The fish was hammered, way overcook and totally dry. The pineapple coleslaw, while yummy (just coleslaw and a few canned pineapple pieces), was presented in a tiny plastic cup. I smooshed it down with the back of my fork and it was no more than two tablespoons. That was a disappointed too. The plate needed more freshness. Plus, I'm all for NO PLASTIC in or with food.

    Excellent spot to have dinner the first night of a bachelorette party in Dunedin! They were able to make a reservation for our party of 7 on the same day. We had great service and great food! The pineapple in everything is a wonderful touch. I enjoyed a pineapple mule. The coconut chicken was our favorite, but the chicken sandwich with pineapple was also very delicious of a combo. This is a fun and casual place, plenty of parking, seems like the kind of place I'd want to be a regular at if I lived there!

    The indoor/outdoor bar

    Loved the vibe of this restaurant. It has an indoor/outdoor bar. The laid back Jimmy Buffet like island decor transports you to another place. Doesn't feel like a strip mall on main street. The service was friendly and fast. Let's talk about the food ... the fish and chips was fabulous. We got 3 pieces beer battered and fried, hush puppies, pineapple cole slaw and crinkle fries for $16 and change. A steal! Had to bring some of it home. And it was happy hour my draft was $1 off! Definitely will be back to try some of their other culinary delights!

    This place is amazing. Good service and great food! We went on a Saturday at 8PM and there was hardly anyone there which was surprising because this place is nothing we'd had ever had before, and we're from South Texas. We really did love this place and would totally come back. It's nice, ambient, small, and friendly service. Also, prices were amazing compared to anywhere else in the area.

    Overall, this place is pretty nice. The prices are reasonable, and the choices are plenty. The staff is were really nice and the places is nice and clean. I ordered an appetizer of crabcakes and my husband ordered an entrée of the fried ribs and also the pineapple grilled teriyaki in the sauce. I actually found this place on Google map. was looking at my husband's bowling tournament and was finding what was near the area in this place had come up. . They have a great website and that is that was the deciding factor of checking out this place versus another a restaurant..

    Fried ribs

    Absolutely delicious food and awesome service. The ambience is quant and tropical. The food was super fresh and came out quickly. Will return for sure

    I have been craving fish and chips and PJ did not disappoint. Perfectly batter fried, tasty twist on slaw and really nice crinkle cuts. Surprise hush puppies were delicious. Service was great even with a full dining room I had attentive service for a to-go order.

    Holy Moly, Pineapple Jack's in Dunedin! Who knew this sleepy strip-mall ,would be such a cute little tiki-themed / pineapple-themed restaurant and bar. You walk in and it feels like you think it's going to with pineapples everywhere. The drinks are excellent. The happy hour could not be better with two for one call-drinks, or as I like to call them, well-drinks. I had a ginger ale and Captain Morgan double tall and it was $6.50. Excellent strong delicious drinks, period. Then on the appetizer menu we saw coconut chicken tenders with pina colada dipping sauce . 'If you don't know now you know' ... The pina colada dip is a take it or leave it type of situation but for the most part those Coconut crusted chicken tenders were a reason to return to this restaurant/bar. Soft and juicy on the inside, total raw coconut on the exterior. I don't know what to tell you I've never had anything like it. As far as service is concerned, it was just a little sleepy. The sleepy conversation from the bartender, except for answering questions, that we engaged. It was a meh on the entertainment scale. The food was excellent. The drink was excellent. We just prefer talkative bartenders then you would have a gem on your hands. Thank you. Pineapple Jack's, will be back for happy hour. See you then.

    Pineapple Jacks is quickly becoming a favorite local staple for myself and family. They have an excellent happy hour, better than anywhere else I've seen in Dunedin. Far from the tourist traps of downtown, PJ'S is well priced, and delivers on solid food options and ambiance. I like the split inside/outside bar, which allows for fresh air but not too much sun. I almost didn't want to review so I could keep the secret to myself, but they deserve to succeed!

We sat outside at the bar and really enjoyed chatting with the bartenders--Dillon and Clyde were fantastic. They made great recommendations and were very attentive. The tiki drinks were fantastic--great flavor, strong, and not overly sweet. I stepped inside to check out the decor, and while it's a small space, it's packed with tiki details. They also had some really cool exclusive merchandise--we ended up buying the Honu tiki mug

On the positive side, parking was readily available, and the hostess team was very polite and gracious. He kindly sat us inside to escape the heat, and we really enjoyed the cool atmosphere and Hawaii-inspired decor. However, we encountered several issues during our visit: - The Table: We were seated at a very wobbly table and had to use napkins to stabilize it ourselves. - The Service: Our waitress was quite slow. Additionally, when explaining the drink options, she explicitly advised us against ordering the Navy Grog on the list, stating that it tasted like ship water. - The Drinks: Based on the celebration, we decided to split the "South Seas Pearl." We found the drink to be overwhelming, and given the premium price tag, we expected the quality to better match the cost. I wanted to bring these matters to your attention in the hope that they can be addressed for future guests.

Some Karen lounging by the pool was so concerned about who we were and where we came from. She stopped us as we were making our way to the bar to make her inquiries. Went to the bar and got prompt and courteous service. We grabbed a spot to sit and sip while we watched the sunset. All the while, this Karen kept staring at us. We decided to leave after the one drink since the atmosphere was partially inhospitable. Then said Karen got some worker to stop us and harass us on our way back to our boat. The worker asked us where we were parked. We said we are parked at the dock. She said yes but where is your car? We said our car is at the marina where we got on our boat. She seemed to not believe us and said well, you'd better not be parked out front. Clearly we weren't. We arrived via boat. Honestly, one of the strangest experiences. Because the bartenders were nice and because the location is lovely, we might give the place another chance. I will update my review if we do.

We had drinks to start; my 20 year old and 16 year old had soda. Wife had a Coroner and I have the spicy jalepeno margarita. All was great! We did not get apps, but there are lots of choices. For mains I had the Birria tacos with onion rings. One daughter had the same. Great taste, but if I had to do it over I would get a side of salad or coleslaw as it was a lot of fried on my plate. That said, finished it all! My other daughter had the chicken Cesar salad and loved it. Chicken was very tasty. My wife had the grouper basket. She thought it was tasty and hit the spot. Service was not bad but not great. Just not friendly. Overall a great stop. Be prepared you are outside and if the weather turns you are on the hook. Also, no reservations so first come first serve!
