Best Live Music Restaurants in Anna Maria

Excellent dinner at Bridge Street Bistro last night. Our server/bartender was awesome. Blackberry martini was one of the best drinks I’ve ever had. Seafood Cobb salad was loaded with crab. Everyone loved their dinners. I was shocked that all of Bridge Street was fairly quiet the Saturday before Christmas. Hopefully people will come and support AMI!

Intimate beautiful setting. Excellent food, service and wonderful ambiance!!

Fun atmosphere, nice water view, tasty food and friendly service

UPDATED as of 12/23/2024: This was one of my wife’s favorite restaurants, she loves the vibe - and the foods pretty good. However, this most recent experience was highly unfavorable and disappointing. To start, we were seated - then waited over 15 minutes for someone to walk up to our table, she took our drink orders… she then went to grab our server. I thought nothing of it, because we are so used to high caliber service here… so we looked past it. An hour goes by, and we have seen our waiter between 4 or 5 times. The other tables around us - their waiters were very present and visited their table every few minutes. We rarely order alcohol, but our drinks were not as great as we remembered. However, the food was incredible (awesome job to the kitchen)! I then was brought a Diet Coke, when I ordered a regular coke - so there were just mishaps all over the place (besides the kitchen). I then sat and waited over 20 minutes for our waiter to come back by so I could pay the bill. I ended up going to the hosts to ask for our waiter, and it still took longer than I thought it should for him to come to our table. I am typically a VERY generous tipper, and for the first time in over 10 years I tipped below 20%… my wife was utterly shocked - because she had never seen me tip that low. Things took a turn when I received a call from the manager because of a thumbs down on the survey as I paid the bill. She apologized profusely and stated would have a coaching with the gentleman serving our table. She truly understood how they fell below par, given our previous experiences there. She stated she would send me a gift card (via mail), and text me so I would have her contact and to let her know the next time my wife and I were coming. Update: My wife and I received the gift card in the mail, and will return very soon. Thank you American Social for making this right, I appreciate it.

We highly recommend going to this restaurant. We had a great time. The wine list is fabulous. The food was great as well and the staff was very nice and efficient. Bravo
