Best American Restaurants in St. Petersburg

First time going to Rococo and it did not disappoint. We were greeted and seated immediately, Brian was our server and was phenomenal and the steak was AHHHmazing!! We also ordered Oysters Rockefeller as an app and it was delicious!! Do yourself a favor and go to Rococo..you won’t be disappointed!

What a great dining experience! From the minute we entered to the minute we left, service was impeccable, almost to a fault. My husband and I have potentially the most annoying combination of food allergies, and they did a lot of research to ensure we were not going to be compromised. Monica, our server, was so attentive and genuine and gave us some great recommendations. Ultimately, we had the scallops and the special, which was an American snapper. Both were perfectly cooked and very lightly seasoned so as not to cover up the seafood flavors. My husband even ate and enjoyed the veggies, which is highly unusual for him. Don't leave without trying the Monica's cornbread. So delicious! The wine list was stacked with wines that complement the menu, and the beer list contained the elusive North Coast Scrimshaw, which made our experience all the more enjoyable. The ambiance is fully MCM, which I love! The noise level did increase as the evening went on, but we could still carry on a conversation. You also can't beat the location right across the water. All told, this was a fabulous dining experience, and we will be back soon!

The service and food was excellent. We started with the Cauliflower sharable and the flavor was amazing. The cocktails were outstanding and they have a full service bar with real liquor and not the "well" drinks so many tourist focused restaurants have for our visitors. The steak and chicken entrees were similarly very well prepared and savory. The restaurant was packed with large groups celebrating as well as couples having their date night. The background music was contemporary and not too loud, which allowed for conversation, but it also was a good fit for the positive fun energy of the surroundings. We were there to celebrate a birthday and we couldn't have picked a better restaurant.

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!!

Cole is always a great sever! We love this melting pot! Food never disappoints!!
