Take an old school Florida Fish House, toss in amazing waterfront views of Anna Maria Sound, then add a menu full of personality with a dash of “quirkiness” and you’ve got yourself a ticket for a good time at Floridays Woodfire Grill and Bar. Not only can you expect to be greeted by a manatee hanging from the ceiling – you can expect personalized service, a fun crowd and a dining experience straight out of a vintage postcard.
Guests love our indoor and outdoor dining options – particularly our Tiki Bar, where the sounds of live music grace our stage every Friday and Saturday night.

AWESOME, great food, great service, great vibe/ seating. We sat outside and while it was hot, it was nice, the fans and breeze made it comfortable. Our server was GREAT and all the food was tasty, as were the drinks, they also offer military discount‼️✌

This is a wonderful spot just off the island with wonderful views. The food was very good Florida Beach Bar and Grill fare. We loved the fried green tomatoes appetizer. My wife had the shrimp gumbo and I had the deep southern fried chicken sandwich with curly fries. Good and tasty, but not exceptional. We had an outside table overlooking the water and the sunset. Service was excellent.

I went here with some friends for drinks and dinner and had a great experience overall. We sat at a table overlooking the water and it was quite pleasant. The people who worked there were friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend going- great atmosphere and good food!

To begin our host was very mundane when we walked in, seated us without a word. Our server was amazing, Sky was great with orders and service. When 3 steaks came out over cooked and one VERY undercooked it was a little shocking. The 3 over cooked came back out a little better but the under cooked came out worse (picture). Kitchen Manager was amazing and Sky our server was great. Fry’s we’re amazing and hush puppies were decent. Overall I would recommend a better chef or to tell the chef to turn the grill down and aim for quality not a short waiting time.

What can I say I was not impressed with the service provided. The gentleman that sat us was wonderful also had the pleasure of seeing him at The Ugly Grouper where the service was awesome. Our server Katie was cordial but not attentive or suggestive about plates visited the table on in a while even though the place was not busy. The Calamari appetizer was rubbery had to chew it a couple of times to swallow so not fresh. But I do have to say that I did like the Shrimp Burger I would rate it an 8 out of 10. I was not pleased with Frozen Strawberry Lemonade it was very watery so just stuck with my Tito’s on the rocks. If you don’t mind okay service you can pop in and have a shrimp Burger.

Erin our server was great! I had blackened grouper and it was wonderful. Their garlic butter has so much garlic that no vampire will even consider messing with you.

Food here is very good. The drinks are good not strong not weak. I have been a few times and they definitely need more staff as one time I sat at a table for 15 minutes with no one coming to my table. I got up and went to the bar and had a better experience. The sunset views and food kept me from leaving. Would go back again.

Went up to the hostess stand and was told it would be 25 mins until they could seat us. So we decided to get a drink at the bar and wait.

Overall solid experience for a waterfront restaurant. View was good, no wait and waitress was nice. Usually you sacrifice quality for location but Floridays did a good job overall.

First time dining here. Was a great experience. Sat out on the patio overlooking the water. Casual dining. Bloody Mary’s were excellent and so was the food! Ordered a couple of the salads, fish tacos and grouper sandwich. All were very tasty. Server was pleasant and had a great personality. Restaurant offers indoor, outdoor dining. They have a fantastic sized bar outside. We will definitely be back!
