Best Gluten Free Restaurants in South Bradenton

We had a party of 7, with most of the party never having been to the Grove. The menu is extensive! We first had a selection of 3 shareable appetizers, which were devoured. The dinner entrees included scallops, filet mignon, crab cakes, grouper piccata, lobster tail, and a pasta dish. Everyone just raved about their food. The service was excellent. Kimberly and Stefan were right there but never hovering. We just had coffee but no dessert as everyone was quite full. It was a very enjoyable evening.

This place is often packed. The outdoor patio seating is adorable and where I prefer to sit, if possible. The food has been great each time I've been there. They offer some traditional dishes but add a fun twist to them (open face lamb pita, spicy falafel etc). The servers have always been really kind and attentive. This is definitely a great spot to have a meal downtown.

We sat outside on a beautiful sunny day on Pier 22’s fabulous patio on the river. My 2 friends and I were celebrating our 70th birthdays together. Our lunches were truly delicious and the presentation was beautiful. We loved our delicious Peach and Blackberry Sangria’s. Topped by the views on the water which are so serene. The restaurant treated us to an excellent piece of birthday cake which was excellent and so pretty. Thank you Pier 22 for making our 70th birthday celebrations very special!!

So happy with all the improvements at Scarpino's. Tom was our server and he was excellent. As usual, the food was delicious and good value for the money. Ambiance is lovely. Just perfect. Thank you to the Scarpino's team.

Being new to the area we search out new places to dine other than a chain restaurant. We had a reservation for 6:00pm, decent time for dinner. When we parked there were a couple of cars in the lot, didn't seem to busy so we thought "maybe this place isn't that great?" Walked inside this quaint old house that has been converted into a restaurant, greeted by a very friendly gentleman who showed us to our table. Everyone was very attentive, very timely with water, drinks, apps and our meals. The food was fantastic! Very pleased with our meals. As we sat and ate the dining area was now full, all within an hour or so. Now we know why! We had an excellent time, we can't wait to go back again and try everything on the menu!
