Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Pinellas Park

I had a wonderful belated Valentine's Day dinner with my husband. We really loved the food, service, and atmosphere. This was our second time dining with Ocean Prime, and it will not be our last!

There has never been a bad experience at Timpano. They go above and beyond to make your experience amazing. The food is always incredible and consistently delicious.

Don’t underestimate this Doc Fords location. Nice setting on the water. Music in their patio and with this bra weather — it doesn’t get any better. Food was delicious. I had one of their new menu additions— the pork chop. Large chop and cooked to perfection. My husband had oysters and the Yucatán shrimp. This is his go to and once again it did not disappoint.

It was our first time dining at Valentino Ristorante Italiano but it will certainly not be our last time. We were warmly greeted the moment we stepped inside the understated yet elegant interior. We immediately knew this was not going to be a “typical” Italian dining experience. Once seated, the staff were abundant, attentive, accommodating and genuinely friendly. In fact, after expressing our delight over the vongole appetizer (clams), our server brought the chef, Ciro Mancini, to our table so we could share our thoughts and compliments with him directly. With so many delicious options on the menu, we were challenged to make a selection. We opted for the Fettucine Bolognese to enjoy as an appetizer (along with the clams) and felt satisfied we had made an excellent choice. The fresh pasta was al dente and the sauce was complex and rich enhancing,but not overpowering, the wagyu beef. We followed up with Zuppa Di Pesce, served in a bowl loaded with a fresh assortment of seafood. Thankfully it came with crostini to absorb the delicious broth and because it was so tasty we moved on to dipping in with the bread we were served upon being seated. Our server recommended the Veal Marsala and it did not disappoint. The sauce was full bodied and the mushrooms were firm and flavorful. Perhaps the best we’ve ever had! The dessert menu was limited and if we hadn’t overindulged on the other dishes we had ordered, we might have opted to try one. Perhaps on our next visit we will better pace ourselves, if possible, so we can sample their sweet offerings. Overall, we had a wonderful meal in a tastefully elegant setting with great service. Now that’s AMORE!

Thank you to Brendan and the place you can always count on for a special dinner!! Two black grouper entrees, scallops, and a Beef Wellington made the night! Great place to take old friends where we could chat, laugh, enjoy casual drinks and the beautiful full moon over our shoulders!!
