    Lobster linguini
    Luisa J.

    Really enjoyed this place. The location is great, lots going on around. We started off at the rooftop bar which was nicely set up and had a beverage and watched a band below. Later we went down for our reservation to eat. Everything was great here except the service in the beginning. I'm not sure if it was because of how crowded it was but we waited about 30 min before someone approached our table. They were so sweet after confronted though, and did not charge us for our first round of drinks which was greatly appreciated and is why I did not knock of a star. I ordered the fried crab and omg it was amazing! My dad ordered the truffle burger and my mom ordered the lobster pasta, both were amazing as well. Will come back again one day!

    Cobb salad - even better than it looks
    Larry G.

    Has not been to Pass-a-Grill in years. Today as such a pleasant surprise. This is relatively new construction, was formally opened right before Covidlife. Basically clean, new, comfortable and very very attractive, yet classically elegant. I have to start with props for our server Chrissy. She is a true professional who made today's experience all the better. In fact, would definitely go back! Basically we all had the Cobb salad. With 1 exception? Generous in portion size and of the highest quality. I particularly enjoyed both the pulled pork and the bacon scattered throughout. Blue cheese was excellent as well. There was a slightly sweet dressing that perfectly complemented all the ingredients. My only suggestion might be to eliminate the pickled onion garnish. Matter of personal choice. Before leaving we looked at the dinner menu and the wine list. Yes we will be back. sweet trashcan you dressing applied and just the right Crowder

    Breakfast sour with bacon-fat-washed benchmark bourbon

    This lovely spot is located in the Berkeley Beach Club boutique hotel in Pass-A-Grille and is the perfect compliment to the beach life. I had reservations for my Meetup group and they were very accommodating. I got there a little early and Erin made me a blood orange vodka concoction that was so on point and a great way to start the brunch. Our server Michael was top notch. When he went around the table he took the ladies orders first. Everyone mentioned how much they enjoyed their drinks. The most interesting of them was the Breakfast Sour that had bacon-fat-washed benchmark bourbon. I got as I call it the Paula Abdul - Straight Up - which included two eggs (scrambled), bacon, home fries and a biscuit - nom nom! The Churro French Toast was a fan fave as well. Kudos to The Dewey for doing it up right.

    bbq pork cobb salad

    Stayed at the hotel above during Christmas weekend so we were able to try this place for brunch and for dinner. For brunch we were able to sit outside with our dog and had a nice and simple service. Food was all very good however it's very particular plates. Definitely have to be sure of what you're ordering. I had the bbq pork Cobb salad 4/5 and I was not quite expecting straight bbq sauce on a salad along with salad dressing. Enjoyed the rest of the ingredients though! Table also had peach pancakes 5/5, sweet and delicious. Salmon and dill shortstack 3/5. Maybe not enough smoked salmon for a dish to be called salmon in my opinion... flavors paired very well together which was surprising but personally couldn't eat a whole plate of this. Dinner: stayed for Christmas Eve dinner which included a 5 course meal. Service was 3.7/5... I understand she may have had a long and busy night however a couple times she was short with us and anytime she asked how was the meal she was already walking away by the time we were able to respond. Originally ordered Cesar salad but ended up not having anymore so went with beet salad. Very delish and refreshing. In love with the goat cheese! Butternut cream soup was amazing... definitely needs to be a regular dish! Salmon with cream potatoes, can't go very wrong with a simple dish. Other table mates, chicken and broccoli and salmon cakes. Chicken was a little dry but veg was perfect. Salmon cakes were great but did not care for the sauce/dip on the side. Overall I feel like the owners definitely put into consideration of every plate for the menus. And worth a try to new comers but would prefer dinner than brunch here.

    The Croque madame with dressed greens. Very very good!

    Went here for brunch yesterday and everything was absolutely fantastic. Everyone in our party was very happy! For food: Some of the things we ordered were the croque madame, brunch burger, quinoa bowl, stuffed French toast, cava pancakes, and fried chicken biscuit. Every single thing was delicious!! For drinks: We had the ranch margarita and aperol spritz. Both drinks were very well made and delicious. For service: Our server was good and had a nice balance of being attentive while also not being overbearing. At one point he forgot my rancho margarita but was quick to correct it, apologized and was prompt in getting it once I asked. He was balancing tables all over the restaurant and did an excellent job even with the large number of tables. For families with kids: My two young children (ages 2.5 and 4.5) were also with us and they were very accommodating for them as well. They have a kids menu and provided crayons and a coloring sheet, plus also ensured their food came out first. There was no changing table in the women's bathroom but there was enough space next to the sink to do a quick change. For ambiance: The restaurant is updated, clean, and has a classy ambiance without giving off a contentious vibe. Overall, I highly recommend The Dewey for brunch!

    Fish of the day with shrimp and what tasted like hominy. Not impressed.
    Stephen T.

    After reading many good reviews during breakfast, just down the street at Seahorse, I walked around the corner and made dinner reservations for 6pm on a Saturday. That was probably the best part of the entire experience. Girlfriend and I returned about 5:15pm, as I heard the views and sunset from the rooftop bar were excellent. Not crowded and still 2.5 hours from sunset, we order a round of cocktails and some oysters. Not sure what took our server or drinks and food so long but we waited and waited for 15-20 minutes. Now the views filled some of that time but the experience after that didn't much improve. The drinks came and my girlfriend's pineapple Cocktail was nice. I ordered a Moscow Mule but it was far from that. Not sure there was vodka in it, seemed to be more of a gin and tonic. It wasn't even served in a copper mug. We reordered a second round and the same drinks were brought. Again it wasn't a mule but I was thirsty and finished it. However we still had not received our appetizer and had about 5 minute before our reservation. The manager or supervisor told us to take our time and head downstairs when we were done, which we did. The Oysters Primordial was wonderful. Thumbs up on that. We took the elevator down and we're seated at the outdoor patio, a quaint area, relatively quiet and nice. We got some water and then ordered an overpriced bottle of bubbly rose that was very average. For dinner my girlfriend got a seafood linguini with scallops and shrimp with sea beans. It tasted fantastic! I ordered the fish of the day, snapper. It was I overcooked , difficult to cut, dry and not flaky, not very tasty. Dinner took some 20 minutes to be served and we were getting a bit frustrated at the lack of service. We wanted dessert but didn't want to wait. Paid the bill, combined with the bar table totaled over $250! Just can't see that being worth it. Somewhat disappointed overall.

    Calamari
    Mitchell S.

    Greeted by the owner when first walking in, I knew this restaurant was going to be a great experience. The food absolutely delivered. Everything tasted so fresh, and the menu continuously changes throughout the weeks. The calamari didn't even taste fried it was that good. The Caesar salad was more decorated than I anticipated, and I was happy about it. The black bean toast and prosciutto added on provided depth to the salad. The Cioppino was the best I've had. Calamari, mussels, scallops, and shrimp all in a beautiful broth of spices and flavor. It came with toasted baguettes with a honey mustard spread. The ambiance of this restaurant is beautiful to say the least. It is warm, and the pictures of their Australian shepherd makes it cute as well. The service was exceptional. Overall, 4.8/5! I will 100% be coming back.

    It was so fun going here for a drink upstairs on the rooftop. The sunset is exquisite. It overlooks the Gulf of Mexico and the beach.We were debating about having oysters but then we decided not to. We then sat at the bar downstairs and had dinner. I had a side salad with a main meal of zahtar crusted tofu- quinoa tabbouleh, seared king trumpet mushrooms, grilled zucchini, preserved lom tzatziki and olive tapenade. Also arbol chimichurri grilled hanger steak-sherry molasses fried plantains, yucca garlic mash and cumin grilled squash. The food was all very good. The place was not buy but I do know that during 'season' they are packed. They also have music on different nights - they are on Main Street. This is definitely a must come back and visit place. I love the vibe and I love the atmosphere!

    Such a cute dinner spot! Went here on a whim & it did not disappoint. The courtyard was so cute & the food was amazing. Our server was extremely attentive and sweet. I can't wait to come back!

    View from roof top!
    Samantha E.

    Visited the rooftop for brunch on a Sunday at the Dewey Beach Bar and Grill. This place is so cute, great view, decor on the rooftop is laid back but upscale. This place has a great vibe. Three stars due to service though. I think they are still working out the kinks. They server was extremely frazzled, coffee was not ready and seemed like a huge ordeal. Everything seemed like a huge ordeal for the server for some reason. We were like, so sorry to impose on you by showing up to your restaurant for brunch.... Hoping the service issues are temporary as the location is fantastic and this place has real potential. Great views of inter-coastal waterway on Pass-A-Grill. The food was pretty good but the menu is fairly limited at this time. Hopefully they will update as they continue to get their feet wet.

    Eggnog Waffle
    Boon C.

    We have brunch here during one of the Sunday. I like beach community restaurant because of the Pass A Grille beach. This restaurant is basically at the Main Street. The restaurant decorated modern contemporary. Decoration color mainly white. We have group of people. I got the eggnog waffle that top with strawberry and syrup. The waffle also come with the roasted walnut. This dish is decent. I also has the bowl of soup with southern clam chowder. Not much of clam. And the clam is tiny. My friend order the tuna melt. It was not melt at all. The cheese still at the room temp shape. Never melt. Then why call tuna melt. Service is a bit slow here. I would give them an average among the restaurant.

    New rooftop place in PAG! Very nice lounge area with great views of the gulf. We just stopped in for drinks and light bites which was perfect since that is what they offered. Staff was very friendly and accommodating with us as we wanted to sit by the rail but only needed a 2 top. Initially they hesitated breaking up a 4 top but eventually they relented. Drinks were pretty tasty and strong for the price. Food menu was full of good sounding small bites and tonight they had a special menu that benefited the Humane society. We landed on the seared duck tamales. Great flavors and a large portion. Overall a great experience! Nice to have another option for rooftop sunset views!

    Amy G.

    Another fabulous dinner. Let me count the ways. Mise en Place owner, Mary anne has created this beautiful restaurant on Passa Grille (PAG) with her extraordinary team. its a beautiful beach california feel with furniture from Restoration Hardware that feels like a sister to Shutters in Santa Monica, CA The food and service is always excellent! Tonight we had their special, seafood bouillabaisse It was extraordinary! Everything the chef makes is fantastic. From their enormous fish tacos to their Quinoa bowls to the hamburgers and weekend brunch. Nice wine list too. The staff is outstanding, top quality servers that know their craft and make your eating experience special. I am looking forward to next weeks specials!

Basically everything I could ask for from a lounge. Plus, the owner was kind, helpful, knowledgable and attentive. The wine tap is a fun time.

There's such a diverse variety of wines (more than two dozen), you could get lost in all of the good options. Something for all palates. I tried the small Sonoma board (which was discounted for happy hour) and it was a good-sized, cheese-focused board with solid combinations. the meat and cheeses come with cornichons, olives, and crackers. the caramelized balsamic onion jam was incredible with the sweet blueberry goat cheese and the spicy salami. It's definitely enough for a quick bite to soak up all the delicious wine.

If you like wine, or you are an enthusiast, this would be a great place to visit if you find yourself in Winter Haven Florida. They have buy one glass 2nd half price. If you buy a bottle and stay, it is a $15 corkage fee. We kind of did the math and depending on the pour, and their pours are generous, it is cheaper to buy by the glass. When you visit they your own math gymnastics. Bottom line, Grape Expectations, the wine is great. The service is exceptionally better. And if you like a mellow vibe with great wine.

From the moment we arrived, everything felt intentional and elevated. The atmosphere is small, boutique-style, and beautifully designed. The lighting, the table setup, even the dishware--every detail showed craftsmanship and care. This isn't just a restaurant--it's an experience. The service was flawless, especially considering it's run by such a small team. Chef Ian Florence and his wife Dayna Bennett, who warmly hosts and manages the front of the house, work in perfect sync alongside their sous chef. The timing, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality were incredible from start to finish. The meal unfolded like a perfectly orchestrated multi-course experience--starting with starters, then appetizers, sides, salad, and entrées. Each course transitioned seamlessly into the next, building on the last, and every single dish was nothing short of spectacular. The wine selection was expertly curated, complementing each course with precision down to the finest detail. And the food... unreal. Everything tasted like a dream. Every bite melted effortlessly in your mouth. You could distinguish every ingredient, every herb, every layer of flavor--each one intentional, each one perfectly balanced. It was one of those rare experiences where your senses are completely engaged--where every bite sparks something new, almost like your brain is lighting up from the depth and complexity of flavor. Each dish told its own story, yet together it created something unforgettable. I travel specifically for food. While most people take vacations for beaches or resorts, my wife and I travel to experience top restaurants--sometimes flying out just to eat and coming right back. We've dined at incredible places across the country and around the world, and this experience ranks right up there with the best of them. For Florida, this is easily one of the best dining experiences I've had. Hands down, one of the top restaurants you can visit in St. Pete--maybe even the entire state.
