Bonefish Grill

Food and service was great. Dining room a little too dark in my opinion (the lighting is very, very dim). The floor was quite dirty/messy and no attempt was made to sweep up during the hour or so we were there. Another nitpick, we checked the website before going so we could decide what we want more quickly, but the online menu doesn't match the in-restaurant menu. Note that I'm still giving 5 stars based on food and service, but atmosphere was only 3.

Bonefish Grill never disappoints, but the Bang Bang Shrimp is always the highlight for me. It’s perfectly crispy on the outside, tender inside, and that creamy, slightly spicy sauce is just addictive. Every time I say I’ll try something different, and every time I end up ordering it again. The bread with olive oil and herbs is simple but so good, and the crab cakes were flavorful and nicely seasoned. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is great for a relaxed dinner. If you come here, you have to get the Bang Bang Shrimp. It’s a must.

I arrived a little after 4pm on a Thursday afternoon with my sons. (Visiting STL from out of state). We were promptly seated. CJ, our waiter, came over a couple mins later with waters and complimentary bread. At 4:15pm, I ordered bang bang shrimp appetizer and it came at 4:23pm. It was fresh and delicious! We ordered food at same time appetizer came. Order included: kids popcorn chicken, bourbon glazed salmon (with asparagus and potatoes), and the blackened Baja fish tacos (with fries). Entrees came at 4:53pm. The food was AMAZING!! My asparagus was soft tasty vs it being stringy; potatoes seasoned nicely, and salmon cooked perfectly. My sons enjoyed their food as well. CJ’s attentiveness was on par for the occasion. No complaints!

Sabrina was our server today! Came in shortly after opening. She was energized and fun and truly great. We had the Bang Bang shrimp, Imperial dip, main dishes and even dessert. The smoked old fashioned cocktail was so good I had two. My dad had a creative cocktail she suggested. She went above and beyond. Will be back. She was the absolute sweetest and best server we had in years while we have dined out.

The food was okay. I’ve been here before. It’s edible. I had the butterfish which tasted very fishy. Also had the burger and I would’ve rather had Shake Shack. Service was incredible. Lighting in the room was dark but I would’ve enjoyed more thoughtfulness to the holiday like Valentine’s Day, there was not a single flower or color of red in the decor.
