Bonefish Grill

Generally we really like Bonefish. Their waiters/​esses are pretty well versed and most of the time, they come off as being fairly professional instead of just some college kid pickups. What staggered us the other day when my wife ordered a martini was when the waiter told her that the blue cheese olives would cost extra. And he didn’t offer regular pimento olives so we assumed unless we bent to their will and coughed up more money for the blue cheese olives, we would not be seeing olives in the martini. And we didn’t. A vodka without olives is like a fruit jar filled with vodka, just not classy.

I had dinner on a Wednesday night. The bang bang shrimp was great as usual. I wish they would offer it as an entrée salad. I had the dinner entrée salad with blackened shrimp. It was nice but a small portion. It’s mostly lettuce so I expected a larger than side salad size. The bread was very good but that’s not why I was there. I’m not a desert eater normally but the crème brullee was the best I’ve ever had. Service by Brian was excellent. Parking is adequate.

Took 5 people to dinner last night. The Tuesday special is amazing! Salad, entrée and desert for $ 15 to $ 18 and very good food. 5 stars if they had brought the bread prior to the entrees. Otherwise everything was perfect and we’ll be back!

The was once my favorite restaurant. Our last 3 visits have been disappointing. My ceasar salad was yellow with brown spots, canned cheese, and a miniscule amount of dressing. The bread was fresh, but the soup had to be sent back as it was not even lukewarm. The service was mediocre. No one ever asked to refill my water or coffee, both of which were empty. I would have asked, but the server was never visible. I had to ask a different server to get my waiter. This is the norm at this restaurant. The servers are never very attentive. I will mot be back.

5 stars and more! Great food! Great Service! Great atmosphere. Can’t go wrong with the bang bang shrimp but if your not a seafood fan the steaks and burgers are the best in Tallahassee!

By far, the best chain restaurant out there. Always consistent quality. Love the Bang Bang Shrimp. Great beer and wine selection. They even carry the local brew from Proof! This location looks like it was recently remodeled. They are owned by Outback (a steak place), but their steaks are much better. Will definitely be back.

The food, service, and atmosphere were all EXCELLENT. Our waiter was well dressed, attentive, funny, and well-​informed on the menu and what went well with what. The fire margarita was really delicious and unique. Calamari were perfectly fried and the breaking was crisp and well seasoned. The crab cakes were outstanding – from someone who’s eaten Maryland crab cakes in Baltimore! Entrée was a Chilean sea bass, which proved to be all about that bass. Preparation was in the form of one of the specials of that day; I forget the exact topping but it was good. My only qualm was that the preparation was so over the top that the garnishes masked the flavor of the bass itself, which is arguably an important thing to taste… when it is the name of your entrée. Nevertheless, it was very tasty so I’m not going to take off a star for it.
Also bear in mind, this place can be a bit pricy on a budget. I didn’t see many college students in the restaurant. Check the menu first online. It’s not an upscale steakhouse, but it isn’t iHop either.

Excellent food and atmosphere! Great place to go for special occasions. Can be pricey so I don’t go often. If you can get there on a Wednesday, bang bang shrimp day, it’s definitely worth a trip!

Bang Bang shrimp — superior! Service always the best. Servers were friendly and professional!

As always, Bonefish Grill definitely delivered! I ordered the special, which was a grilled Grouper topped with a Spinach/​Gorgonzola sauce. I also ordered a side of my all time favorite — the Au Gratin potatoes.
Service was impeccable and the fish was grilled to perfection. The only thing I didn’t care for was the topping. I found the Gorgonzola to be far too overpowering for the fish.
Everything else was spot on!

Bonefish was my favorite chain restaurant… UNTIL we tried the one in Tallahassee:(
One of the things I always loved about Bonefish is their consistency from one location to the next… always a good meal. We moved to Tallahassee and recently got takeout from Bonefish and it was awful.
1. They did not answer their phones for over 15 minutes on a MONDAY night. When they finally answered, the person who took the order was unpleasant, and not apologetic at all about the phone problem (he did say there’s an issue with the phones there and it hasn’t been fixed).
2. They were out of 2 of the entrée items we wanted (and one was Mahi… pretty standard I would think to keep in stock).
3. Curbside service was slow.
4. Our food was cold:(Very small portions this time compared to any other visit at Bonefish. Very skimpy on the bang bang shrimp sauce. Food was poorly packed in the takeout containers and «sloshed» all over in the car.
Needless to say, we will not return to this location. Very unimpressed.

Lunch was same price as dinner menu and quality was substandard. Bang Bang shrimp were overcooked and hardly any sauce. It took forever so I had no time to send it back. I will not be back for lunch.

Not my favorite Bonefish bc of location but the bang bang shrimp don’t know they are in an old strip mall bc they are just as awesome as any other Bonefish that I have been to. Seared Tuna, calamari, crab cakes, and all the other faves you go to Bonefish for. Inside you wouldn’t know you weren’t in Ponte Vedra, my favorite bonefish :)

This Bonefish was absolutely great. Not only did they take our large party last minute but the service was impeccable.

David and I went for dinner a few weeks ago and we got tuna for dinner. It was very strong tuna. I could not eat it. When we mentioned it to the waitress her solution was to bring us some lemon. Still couldn’t eat it. For the price, expected better quality food.

Had lunch here a couple of times. The one thing that stands out is Jen’s Jamaican Coconut Pie with rum sauce. It is so good I’ll be back just for that. The key lime pie is good also.

Not a fan of chain restaurants In general but always have a decent meal here and they are one of the, if not THE, only restaurant open late. Bang bang shrimp are basically rock shrimp tempura from Nobu… but cheaper. Ambiance is nice in the bar area with good lighting. Can be a bit noisy but that is good when you have a fussy infant with you.

The food, martinis, and service are out of this world. I always get the sea bass. Usually other people in my party try other things and we taste share… everything is delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. They also take reservations and are very capable of handling parties of 15 – 20 people. You can’t go wrong with this restaurant.

Food is good. We normally sit in the bar area. However you will need a warm jacket no matter the time of year. The place is a ice box.
We will not be back anytime soon since they can never seem to get the temperature right.

Typical Bonefish Grille like all other locations. This location had good quality food and the service was phenomenal. Definitely worth coming back. The prices are a little higher than most restaurants but the seafood is always top notch and very fresh.
