Guy’s Gulfside Grill

Mahi Tacos. This is doing it right!
The peel and eat shrimp were great, too. Service was average, as it is all over St. Pete, but don’t miss this fish!

Stopped by for happy hour several nights while staying at Tradewinds Resort. Jake and Kasey the bartenders are absolutely amazing! They have fantastic personalities and offered amazing customer service. Every time we visited was a great experience.

Great location and horrible service. Waited 15 mins with 4 people at the bar with not even a greeting as the bartenders continued to just stand there and talk to each other. We finally decided to just leave and go elsewhere. Even the tapping of the credit card after the first 10 mins didnt even work! Atmosphere was pretty dead but again contribute that to lack of service. With a location like this, I would really hope this is something that is corrected.

Not sure if this would be a fair review considering I’ve never even ordered anything from here. Aparently 4 people sitting at the bar is way too busy for 2 bartenders to handle. My bf and I tried to order drinks but after 15 minutes of waiting without being greeted even we decided to leave.

We stayed at the Guy Harvey Outpost on a recent adult vacation getaway. This is the on site restaurant. Super convenient, open 7am-​10pm. We had breakfast here twice and dinner once. Both times service was excellent, super fast and friendly! Breakfast: I just had toast, I’m not much of a breakfast person, but it was good. As much as you can expect from toast. Hubby had a burrito one day and an inlet the next. Both good and filling. Prices are a little steep, but in line with what I’d expect from a restaurant located at a resort. Honestly the super quick and friendly service makes it worth it. Also, we enjoyed being able to hop off the beach barefoot and in suits, to grab a bite to eat. For dinner we had the fish tacos and nachos, both good. Once again, if you are staying on site eat here. The food is good and the few extra dollars are worth the convenience!

No alcohol until 11am, so no Bloody Mary’s or Mimosa’s. Shameful.
Waited almost 20 minutes for our eggs. Over medium came out fried and well done. Burrito was missing salsa and sour cream. Took another 10 minutes to get the attention of a server (at least six were in the kitchen). Eggs tasted strange, like they haven’t cleaned the grill. You could taste French Toast flavoring on the eggs and they were very greasy.
Initially, the coffee refills were quick. Once the food came out, it was another 10 minutes before we found someone to get us a refill.
After asking for the check, it took another 10 minutes. We watched the server carry our check in-​and-​out of the kitchen multiple times.
They did refund the price of the eggs, and eventually brought out salsa and sour cream.
All told, we spent an hour and a half for what should’ve taken at most 30 minutes.
PASS!

Let me put it this way: Got our appetizer (mahi mahi fingers), and immediately asked for our check. No bar in the place, any drinks ordered would have to be retrieved from the lobby bar. (Huh? Isn’t this a resort? No fuss, no muss?) Hubby’s drink couldn’t be made because the particular vodka he wanted was locked up in the pool bar, closed for the day. (Again … huh??) He then chose a Long Island iced tea, and it took 15 mins to show up. I ordered a mango margarita, got a mango daiquiri, and I was done with it before hubby’s drink showed up. Mahi tasted like stiffly compacted piles of cardboard. Pretty stunning they were so bad. We were mortified at the idea of ordering dinner, so we left. Immensely disappointing for a place with such a namesake at a resort that dotes on guests wanting for nothing.
