Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Bridge Street Bistro offers a captivating Gulf view, excellent service, and a variety of delicious dishes. Guests love the "seafood Cobb salad" and "blackberry martini." The ambiance is charming, with "great sunset views" and live music. While some dishes missed the mark, the bistro's "fantastic food" and "friendly staff" leave a lasting impression.

    Wonderful meal. Great sunset. Service was awesome. A favorite place to visit every year. New faces but as friendly as usual. Menu was a little limited but assuming it is because they are getting things back up and running since the hurricanes.

    The Bridge Street Bistro is arguably one of the best places on the island for food, drink, and gathering with friends. We are locals, and it’s our go to place not just for the food, but for those there who take care of us- they are like family.

    We thought the way the chef provided a process to inject oil into the steak was great and it REALLY highlighted the flavor. The server Cal was outstanding also. 5 stars. I think a hidden gem on the island.

    Absolutely fantastic experience dining at Bridge Street Bistro! Our server, Cal, was awesome and accurately gauged our pace. Gorgeous sunset over the gulf, followed by a delicious bottle of Riesling and a delectable meal. I had the salmon Oscar style and my wife loved the diver scallops. My personal preference would be for the music to be a touch softer, but that's just nit picking! We've been on Anna Maria for close to three months, and this has been our favorite dining experience to date.

    We have eaten here many times and it has been one of our favorites. BUT tonight we arrived at 5:30, the first people there. We didnt receive our meal for an hour and half. The server told us they had to thaw the grouper!! What??? There was inadequate staff and inadequate communication. We had to wait for a second round of drinks and for our check. Felt badly for the staff but for an expensive meal this was very disappointing. They need to do better .

    Dinner for 2 Saturday night Made reservations. Nice table by window. We have been dining here on and off for 15 years, usually food is very good. don’t like to complain. When I know all the restaurants on bridge street are struggling. Menu was pretty limited. Our dinners, grouper pecan style and salmon lightly seasoned were good not great. I am going to leave it at that and give them another chance next year. Service was very good

    We love this Bistro! It starts with a great ambience. Then there is the bar. Great selection of special cocktails and all the classics. The menu is perfect — though I have to confess that I keep returning for the seafood Cobb so it is hard to explore. But friends say the faro island salmon and also the crab cakes are great choices. Enjoy the sunset from the warmth and comfort of your table inside the restaurant! Great sunset views! We will go back as often as we can.
