Bridge Street Bistro

If I could give about 4.7 stars, I would! We arrived during a "slammed" period but service was good. I had the whole fried fish: excellent except the coating could have had a bit more salt. Everyone's food, and the two bottles of Mendoza-region Cabs were very good. We would go back.

My husband has been treating me to Bridge St Bistro for my birthday for the past 6 years. He has always ordered the Grassy Key Grouper and I had the salmon. Last year our dinners were overcooked, we were very disappointed. So thought we would keep up tradition and made reservations. Tonight, our waiter Tim was amazing! The view beautiful . My husband ordered his usual, the grouper was rubbery and overcooked, there were 3 shrimp on the plate that were cold, unseasoned, like they were just put on the plate newly defrosted. I do not like Cajun seasoning, I cannot do spice, so I couldn't order the salmon. I asked about the pasta dish with shrimp and scallops. Tim stated it was in a white lobster sauce. What I was given was a plate of pasta, shrimp and scallops in a spicy Cajun sauce, so much

Absolutely one of the best spots to visit while you’re in town, and a fantastic local place for dinner. The service was truly above and beyond. My meal was fresh, hot, and delicious. I ordered the blackened grouper with creamy bacon risotto, and it was beautifully presented and full of flavor. What a delight! Our host, Kenita, was so pleasant and professional. She greeted us the moment we walked in and seated us with a warm smile. The manager, Jennifer, also stopped by to welcome us, which was a thoughtful touch. Our server, Patrick, was incredibly knowledgeable and helped guide us through the menu with ease, his recommendations were spot on. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I plan to post more reviews on other dishes to help with your dinner decisions. Highly recommend!

We were staying in Bradenton for the Christmas week, went to the beach Christmas morning, and noticed this restaurant was open when we left. We went home to clean up and decided to find dinner out, since we didn't have a Christmas meal plan. We were able to get in for open seating at the bar even though they were booked for dinner reservations. The Christmas Meal was delicious and well-portioned. The staff was very friendly and hardworking. The sunset was phenomenal this night. Thank you for a memorable Christmas dinner!

Good food and drinks. The staff was all very kind and helpful. The food was delicious, excellent quality and portions, very fresh and flavorful. Day views are stunning. Make a reservation fills up fast.
