A great location and a beautiful waterfront restaurant! I can sum up the experience in one word: AMAZING! The food was amazing, the view was amazing and the service was amazing. I would definitely recommend the Bon Appétit restaurant if you're in the area, especially if you can make your reservation at a time to watch the sunset.
Great views and service
Sadly I write this: Enjoying Bon Appetite, thoroughly, over the past 14 years; I report the decline of food and service. Last eve we experienced unappetizing Calamari, ridiculous wait for entree (had to ask the server of the delay), server de-boned the Dover fish on a bar tray at the outside service station and the potatoes were "forgotten" on the entree plate! Very disappointed with the decline of this formerly fabulous restaurant. Atmosphere is still WONDERFUL!!
The best ever French Onion Soup. Enjoyed our first visit
We ate at bon appétit this evening. I was very disappointed. We ordered the calamari as an appetizer, which was the worst calamari I’ve ever had. Then we waited an hour for our fish. Then the waiter came over and said he had to De-bone it because they forgot to do that in the kitchen. He deboned it By the wait station on a drink tray. They forgot to put potatoes on the dish We had to ask for the waiter to bring us some as they were supposed to be part of the meal we have been coming here for 14 years and sorry to say we won’t go back. The service is not like it used to be. We are so grateful for the previous owner.
It’s always a letdown when a local staple doesn’t live up to the memories. I am resident of Clearwater and had many meals there in the past. I was hoping to have a traditional lobster roll but when it arrived it was not. Under a cut up lobster completely sheared with mayo and celery it was a sorry piece of dry slice of sandwich bread. The place still have the best view great service but food was mediocre and super over priced. Maybe I will be back for a drink nothing else.
Beautiful! Right on the water!

Great place food delish staff great
Everything was perfect! The calamari was some of the best we’ve ever had… so tender and the sauce was divine. The snow crab was cooked perfectly and served with warm butter and plate of fresh veggies. We had a reservation and were seated promptly with a stunning view of the water! Can’t wait to return in a few weeks!
Terrific waiter Excellent service. Food delicious. A bit loud. I recommend Bon Appetit
Rya was very friendly and accommodating
We sat on the deck outside for the view. Shared the fish pâté appetizer- has some horseradish and a bit of a kick: delicious. I live the pineapple and salami. Skewer on a bed of coconut rice.
excellent meal, service was fabulous, ambience outstanding.
All 4 of us were very pleaased. WE tried many different items and they were all better than good. Trevor, our waiter, was a positive addition to our time with good knowledge and recomendations.
We had bacon wrapped shrimp and ceasar salad as starters. Shrimp were good. Ceasar salad was way too big for a starter. The dressing did not taste homemade it tasted like a jarred dressing you can buy at the store. Same with the croutons. Not worth $15 thats for sure. We were served our starters fairly quickly but then waited over an hour for our main course while people that arrived after us were served both their starters and mains. I had to ask the waiter where our meal was. He tried to blame the kitchen even when I pointed out that others had been served theirs before us and they arrived after us. Then to top it off, he brought out the wrong dish for my husband and blamed the manager for that. My husband had the cedar plank salmon that was supposed to come with roasted cauliflower and something else. Instead it came with what appeared to be a frozen carrots, corn and peas mixture and definitely tasted like it. I had the land and sea dish which is tenderloin beef tips and scallops with a mushroom risotto. It was very good. I'm glad I ordered it and I'm also glad I ordered an appetizer because I don't think the dish would have been enough to fill me. It had 3 scallops and 3 small pieces of tenderloin and a couple of scoops of risotto. When we booked our reservation online it specifically asks if you are celebrating anything special. We said yes, its a birthday. They don't offer a free dessert for a birthday. They give you a coupon for a bottle of sparkling wine for your next visit. It is only valid for parties of 4 or more, lol. We spent over 100+ dollars per person including drinks (2 mixed drinks, 1 beer and 1 glass of wine) not including tip. Would we go back? Maybe we will give it a 2nd chance but I'm not sure. I didn't care for the service and I thought it was pretty cheap of the restaurant not to include a small piece of cake for a birthday celebration. Why ask if you are celebrating anything and not acknowledge it?
We have been here a number of times and always enjoyed the experience. My sister was in town and it never been there. She and her husband absolutely loved it. We sat by a window and watched the dolphins play while we ate. Can't get better than that.
