Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Bradenton

Always enjoy our dining experience at Dry Dock! Food, service and ambiance are the best! Thanks for a great evening!

Their reputation is well-earned.. the food was amazing. We were a party of 9 and there were no drop-offs in service or food quality. Eddie is the consummate professional.. his knowledge of the wines and menu is impeccable. This was our first time at Michael’s on East, it will not be our last. Highly, highly recommend!

Always excellent… service and staff were great. We were celebrating an engagement that had just taken place and the staff was wonderful in this celebratory moment!

I was celebrating my wife’s birthday today and her mom joined us as well so it was a special day for us. I had swordfish and it was fabulous! My had the triple tail and she enjoyed it very much, although it was a lot of food so she did bring home leftovers. Her mom had the spaghetti and meatballs which is always a good choice. There is a wood fire oven and a fabulous selection of pizza available and I highly recommend the pizza as well. I have had the pizza before and it is sublime. Definitely worth trying. There is a very nice selection of wine and the drinks are always good. I love the choices of single malt scotch too. If you have not been here, I recommend you go because you won’t be disappointed.

Sofra was absolutely amazing, Sierra our waitress was extremely knowledgeable in the menu and explained in detail how every dish is prepared. You can tell the whole staff put a lot of love and detail into their service. The food prepared by Chef Armand and team was incredible, from the flavors to the portion size. The burrata with pesto and beets for appetizers and lamb pasta for dinner. Then white chocolate tarte for dessert!! So smooth with the caramel drizzle! Definitely recommend for anyone looking for dinner. The restaurant is decorated so beautifully and extremely inviting. They even have a space for private parties. Go to this hidden gem!!
