Best Lunch Restaurants in St. Petersburg

Bavaros is always one of my favorite places to dine. However, this time, the Ceaser salad was way too fishy and the lettuce was saturated in it. Both pizzas were burned on the bottom too. Also, we were dining with friends and unfortunately, did not receive the happy hour price on several glasses of wine that was purchased. An oversight that I did not check until the following day, reviewing the receipt. Overall, we will be back, but will definitely be checking the itemized before paying (and skipping the salad).

Initial reservation was for 6 guests; restaurant was able to accommodate us without hesitation even though we had 8 guests. Our server, Lexi, was attentive and helpful with suggestions. Half of our party had previously dined at Parkshore Grill, while the remainder were “newbies!”. The pacing of our meal was perfect allowing us time to catch up on news with one another while also permitting us to eat wile our food was at the perfect temperature.

Service pleasant. Food good. Appetizers, salad and entrees came out all at once but manager came over and apologized and credited the appetizers which was appreciated.

Cool spot. Scallops were excellent. Rigatoni was apparently also outstanding. Can’t go wrong eating here.

My wife and I dined at Juno & the Peacock for our wedding anniversary. We had an amazing experience, thanks to Patrick’s (our waiter) excellent service and recommendations. Starting with our cosmopolitan and Moscow mule, the Ahi Tuna Tartare and Pork belly were exquisite. The crab-crusted grouper and winter squash campanelle were delicious. To top it off the key lime tart was to die for. We will definitely be back!
