    Joshua was our server, he was amazing. Great service, food was delicious. He made sure our food was up to par and if we were happy! Ask for Joshua if you can, he will take care of you. I overheard him telling the next table over that their food would have to be made again because he didn’t want to serve anything not up to his standard. Thanks Joshua!

    Kenzie Kenzie Kenzie, that's all I can say. I have never experienced this level of service. She was immaculate. There were three of us, and of course, we didn't know what we wanted to eat, lol. Kenzie never made us feel like we were getting on her nerves. She actually described the food so well that one of us at the table got two meals 😂. I can't leave the greeting out because he was awesome, and both of them treated us with so much kindness. I'm so sorry I didn't get the young man's name. Oh, and the drinks 🍸 😏 will not disappoint.

    We tried this place on a very busy night for them. The wait was long, but it was overall worth it. Blackberry Sangria was very, very good! Most of the dishes we tried were great. My son's Mac&Cheese, which is one of their premium sides, wasn't so impressive, and my stake was overdone (which tends to happen quite often since I like my meat medium rare to rare). They do ask you to check the temperature of your stake when they bring it to the table, but it's quite dark in there and I am also not a big fan of sending food back to the kitchen, for multiple reasons. This was my birthday dinner, so I've got a complimentary cheesecake slice at the end with a nice card signed by everyone. That was a nice touch! I would definitely recommend them and go back to try more of their dishes aaand the Sangria!!!

    Unfortunately, the service and food keep declining at this location. The salads were brown soggy and wilting, it took quite some time to get our drinks, one quest in our party never received their salad. The manager was kind and responsive.

    Food was good, drink options are ok. Would have been better if they used fresh fruit for the drinks. I took out the watermelon from my drink it looked rubbery and old. Gotta make sure u use fresh ingredients when making $15 dollar drinks. The rest of the food taste alright

    This was by far one of the best restaurants I had ever went to, one of the server name Emilee was by far the most truly caring and the most fastest sever that I had ever came across too, she is like a family to us when she took our orders, she was very serious when we mentioned that we had some food allergies, Emilee was truly the best waitress I ever had she deserves more than the whole restaurant!!!

    Pulled up, lots of parking available. Walked in, greeted, and was given the options table or booth. We opted for booth. Seating location was across from the bar. Shelves with bottles of wine should be dusted or more often if it's being done at all. The table was clean. Liked the idea that they covered with a type of paper that ensures tabletop is properly disinfected/clean between visits. We ordered bang bang shrimp for appetizer later to realize that there was a sharable size for $2 more for an extra large portion size. It would have been nice if our waiter had suggested that instead, but it was no big deal. Less money out our pockets. The bread with dipping sauce was good, tasted a hint of pesto. Meal 1. Signature pasta w/salmon: At first glance what a lovely presentation 😍. Ordered Salmon well done. Pasta could have been cooked a minute or two longer for my liking. Sauce was missing something, couldn't really pin point, so I started to put salt. My waiter happened to pass by and I guess saw my facial expression 😅 (I would love to know what she thought) and offered some parmeasan cheese, which I would never refuse 🙃. Between the salt I poured on and the parmeasan cheese, it made it a little better. Meal 2.Signature pasta w/chicken: Sauce was not flavorful, very bland, wasn't offered Parmeasan and didn't think to ask before meal was over. Pasta texture was OK. Sauce needs a bit more work.

    Service was outstanding as well as the bang-bang shrimp tacos but I would pass on their special pasta dish as it lacked flavor. Peppers did nothing for it and missing salt in the pasta water, thou healthy, sacrifice taste.

  • 5/5 Marian R. 2 months ago on Google • 15 reviews New
    The wait was a little long, they said 30 minutes and it was almost an hour but the food was delicious and the service lovely. It's worth the wait. The only thing I ordered was creme brûlée and three years ago they didn't have it. 💔😁

  • 2/5 Dalonte B. 2 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    Really good food and drinks just feel like our server paid alot more attention to the tables that came in after us only a few tables when we arrived but when we were ready to go we had to ask for our check multiple times and didn’t get it brought over to us until about 15 mins after asking when he brought the table next to us theirs our server didn’t even have the decency to so goodbye to us we left a good tip because that’s the right thing to do. there were no problems before that point just a horrible ending to a decent night

    Always an amazing burger...at a fish place! Bang bang shrimp is also excellent.

  • 4/5 Ashley Coudron D. 5 months ago on Google
    Our food was really good! We are vegetarian, so we ordered the pumpkin ravioli, brussel sprouts, and mashed potatoes. The ravioli was amazing! One star off the food because two other people in our party said the flavors were not as good as they had been in the past. Our server was great. Very attentive. One star off because we were there for a birthday and although the key lime cake was awesome, they were out of candles so they didn’t sing or anything. Just felt a little un-ceremonial. But all in all, a nice dinner and we would go back.

  • 2/5 Patrick W. 1 year ago on Google
    Very disappointing. Everything but the sweet tea was bland and mediocre. I had fish and chips with a side of slaw (wet bland sliced cabbage) . Fish batter was crunchy but absolutely no flavor to the fish. We also had a steak with mashed potatoes. Potatoes had no flavor and steak was stringy but cooked correctly. Not planning on eating there again. Good service by staff. $$$ not worth it

  • 1/5 Scott S. 4 months ago on Google
    We ordered our two steaks med. They came very close to rare. The waitress took them back but left everything else on the table. About 5 minutes later she bought the steaks back. What we had on the table was getting cold. The steaks were very hard to chew. cut and very stringy. MY wife showed the waitress and she agreed. The drink my wife had she said was great. The staff and the waitress was very good. For 75 bucks we wont be coming back anytime soon. They did give us 1 piece of cheese cake for free...LOL To much completion in town where we can go get a meal we can enjoy.

  • 3/5 Lavida T. 9 months ago on Google
    We were with a large group and by the time some of the food came out it was cold, or the wrong order. The Brussel sprouts were drowned in the sauce and the sauce was not that good. Better to asked for fried Brussel sprouts without sauce. There was another mango sauce that was better. The creamed spinach was too soupy. Mac and cheese had very little cheese. It was like eating pasta only. The server tried his best. I believe everyone else enjoyed their meals.

  • 5/5 Mark & Gina W. 1 year ago on Google
    I just love this place! High quality food, good prices and super friendly service! We never leave disappointed. Our personal favorites: Bang Bang Shrimp and the Brussels Sprouts.

  • 5/5 Robin D. 1 year ago on Google
    The reason I give the bonefish a five star we made reservations for 8:30 when we got there we seated immediately absolutely no standing around and not forgotten, the waitress was very nice, very cordial and immediately told us happy anniversary and asked for our drink order, bread was delivered hot and right away with dipping oil we waited maybe 10/15 minutes and our dinner was served it was absolutely no wait time no craziness like having to wait 45 minutes for a meals the atmosphere was nice quiet not loud, the food was hot and outstandingly great.

  • 5/5 Johnny P. 1 year ago on Google
    This BoneFish Grill is definitely my favorite I’ve been too. We go here frequently due to the fact of the quality food and service. The atmosphere is always inviting and just an overall great place!

  • 4/5 Sabrina 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent service, food quality and portions. Angelina was amazing, offered service with a smile, regardless of our requests, and the host was also very helpful. The portions were generous and the spicy martini was a treat that tingles the tip of the tongue. One star was docked because of the ambiance. The ledgws by the windows needs to be dusted and the ceiling definitely needs to be redone, as it's an eyesore and possibly moldy. Management should definitely make this a priority, as otherwise, it was a perfect meal.

  • 5/5 Me H. 2 years ago on Google
    We did a quick lunch this time. Bang Bang Shrimp always delicious. Crab Fries, crispy and not greasy. Wished they had more lunch specials, wasn't offered any when we asked. Will come back for Dinner to try some of the new seafood dishes.

  • 4/5 J M. 2 years ago on Google
    The service was great the new waiter Josh was excellent. The food was all hot and fresh and the dip was superb. The shrimp were decent I was looking for more of a kick of flavor but overall not bad. From what I remember the drinks were nice and strong the way I like it. The only other thing that could of been better was a bit more flavor on my steak and cooked to my wellness of medium vs med well

  • 1/5 N A. 2 years ago on Google
    The soups that we ordered was cold , had to send them back for hot ones. They didn’t have any bread/bread sticks for the soup. The fries and crab appetizer was salty same with their sauces for the other appetizers. The front girl hostess was helping delivering the food to the tables with her hair all loose and long . Not too sanitary . Don’t know what happened to this restaurant. It used to be our favorite.

  • 4/5 M M. 2 years ago on Google
    Start off by telling you that I don't hand out five-star reviews unless my socks really got knocked off. I certainly enjoyed the bonefish grill and eating it their restaurants around the country. I have the steak and shrimp and it was good but the steak really could have been a few ounces larger. Not that it wasn't enough food, it's just would have been nice with a larger piece of beef. Everything was cooked well and I highly recommend the shrimp appetizer.

  • 5/5 James K. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent food great service, first time here but certainly want to get back again. Highly recommend Bonefish Grill

  • 5/5 Alexandra F. 1 year ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I had an absolutely amazing time with my partner coming here. We were met with very friendly staff (all being great, our waiter being Carlos A). They were so kind and made it a great environment, especially for LGBT+ people! Our food was so great and was so quick coming out.
