Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Safety Harbor

Great place for a date night and it is extremely romantic. Either what appears to be the manager for the owner walks around and greets everybody in is extremely nice. The food is amazing and the staff was great. Don’t let the outside judge you being in a strip plaza when you’re inside you feel like you’re in a true nice high-end Italian restaurant.

Great experience at the Black Pearl. We went on Saturday, February 15, 2025 and they still had the 4 course tasting menu from Valentine’s Day. Our waiter Sean was fantastic and thoroughly explained the menu. The sommelier, Tommy, was very knowledgeable. Will go back to the Black Pearl very soon. Food was fantastic, and the ambience was very romantic. 

Mystic Fish rises to the occasion once again! We enjoyed a delicious and delightful meal with our out of town friends for Valentine’s Day. The menu provided wonderful options - we chose the Maine Lobster tails, Land and sea with lobster and filet, the sea bass and the grouper with the hogfish preparation. All dishes were cooked perfectly and served expertly by our friendly wait staff who also had a great sense of humor. Our out of town friends were duly impressed and I’m sure Mystic Fish will be on their agenda next visit.

Great location. Great friendly vibe. Great service and food. After several visits to LL, I keep waiting to be disappointed and it just never happens. From the moment you're greeted upon entering to the well wishes offered when leaving, the staff is top notch. Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and just the right amount of attention during the meal. The food is equally impressive. Nothing fancy in terms of presentation. But that's not what this place is all about. A nice varied menu with fresh seafood that is well prepared and always tastes great. And lots of lobster options. Will definitely be back.

We were greeted quickly at our table by wait staff. We were given ample time to enjoy a cocktail and review menu. Food was delicious. I recommend the wedge salad-delicious. Petite filet great and cooked as ordered. Try the smashed red potatoes as a side. Love this restaurant.
