    Must go if you are in St Pete. Outdoor tables by the water are awesome. Food was very good. Seafood tacos, steak sandwich and black bean dip were exceptional. A little pricey but not overboard. Service was good. Make reservations in advance so you can get a table outside. Be ready for very ambitious sea birds but that adds a little amusement.

    London was a fantastic server, we needed an early lunch reservation due to a meeting, and this worked out perfectly. The Ahi Tuna  with mango salsa and rice, and the cold lobster roll were absolutely fantastic. I normally don’t finish a complete meal, but this was so good. I couldn’t stop. Highly recommend eating here!

    We enjoyed our dining experience at ParkShore. We started with a drink at the bar which was great. Then to our table, where Reese was our server. We had great food and service. This restaurant has been here for 18 years so definitely a reliable choice - it was busy, so highly recommend a reservation. You could tell it was a local favorite. Alaskan King Crab legs and Beef Wellington were awesome!

    Excellent, food and service. Jeremy was great, and made sure everything was perfect. He is a fantastic advantage with all his restaurant experience to now be at Juno and the Peacock. Our server Jeff was attentive, friendly and made excellent recommendations. We loved our appetizers, crab cake, (no fillers) Monica’s corn bread with honey butter. Jeremy was right, delicious. We both enjoyed grouper for our main dish. Came out pipping hot, loved it. Enough that we had a doggie bag.. key lime pie, yummy. The only negative is that they are really in need of reducing the noise level, and they are fully aware of that and working on it. Thank you for an excellent experience. Highly recommend this restaurant. So good, we bought gift cards for holiday gifts!!

    We shared a New York strip and it was cooked perfectly and so delicious. One of the things we always love about Ruth Chris is the hot sizzling plate with the delicious butter on your steak. The chop salad is one of our favorites and of course good old standard baked potato on the side. our server was Mary Beth, and she was very attentive and did a great job.
