- AA . ErnestGoldSouthwest Florida •625 reviews5.0Dined on 8 Jun 2026We are local and have regularly dined at Pier 22 for years. It is a favorite restaurant to bring out of town guests especially since the food is consistently well prepared. My husband loves the group and last night was no different. It was grouper piccata and as usual my husband enjoyed it. He says by far the best grouper anywhere. I tend to eat one or two apps and last night the Mirin chicken wings were delicious. This visit We met a couple from Apollo Beach that come here almost every week to sit outside for a light meal and a glass of wine. That says a lot about Pier 22. So glad to have the restaurant in our back yard.More infoPIER 22$$$$• Contemporary American• Bradenton•4.5
