Bon Appetit has been a local go to for special occasions for decades. On our guided walking food tour of Dunedin Bon Appetit is our finale stop for their amazing desserts and delicious coffee from Vienna. Our guests get to choose any of the tasty desserts we get to try them all and share!
Lovely place with a lovely view. Did not drink but the food was extremely disappointing. Ordered the onion soup which was barely passable, but the lamb chops were just terrible, compared for example to Donatello’s in Tampa. OK it’s cheaper but still one of the worst I’ve ever tried. Friend ordered the duck and it wasn’t good either. Go for the view and drinks maybe.

Food was great, could have been a bit hotter. Amazing location, fabulous sunsets
No question, the view is the best for a restaurant in the area. I was disappointed, I had the Grouper and it was the exact same piece of fish that Frenchys serves for $30 less than Bon Appetit. I ordered a Moscow Mule to drink and it was watered down and served incorrectly. What can I say , you pay for the view….
Food was average with small servings. Meats were fatty.
I recently hosted a team event with many colleagues visiting from out of town and thought Bon Appétit would be a perfect spot, as I wanted my group of around 20 to enjoy a beautiful sunset while dining. I made the reservation ahead of time and clearly stated that my goal was to treat my team to dinner while watching the sunset. When we arrived, we were told a room was prepared for us. I immediately mentioned that we didn't want to be seated in a back room, as I had specifically requested a view of the sunset. The person handling our reservation insisted that two servers had already been assigned and claimed I'd be taking money away from them if we changed our seating. I noticed several open tables and asked if we could pull them together outside instead, but I was told they have a policy against doing that--even though there were clearly other groups with tables pulled together at the time. It was a Tuesday evening with plenty of available outdoor seating, and yet they refused to accommodate us. For a local restaurant, it's surprising that they didn't seem interested in finding a solution. I live in Dunedin and frequently support our local restaurants, and this is the first truly disappointing experience I've had here. Unlike the other family-owned establishments that genuinely care about their local customers, Bon Appétit seemed indifferent to our experience. I'll be sharing this experience with others in the community, as well as the many restaurants, bars, and breweries I regularly visit. We left and had an amazing dinner at "The Lucky Lobster" Thank you Jennifer for amazing service!!

Our waiter was great appetizer was good main course did not make it and the noise level was bad
We've eaten here past few Octoberfests, neat menu but pretty pricey. Very big & beautiful place, upper floor for pvt parties or weddings. Big parking lot, usually valets on weekends, very busy. Outdoor seating too, beautiful terrace w/live music, indoors has pianist. O'fest platter has 3 meats, kraut.& kinda breaded muffin. My grilled bratwurst was big & tasty, w/potatoes & kraut. Dessert was wonderful apple strudel, don't miss it. Rachel was attentive & friendly, wait staff in bow ties, pretty dressy, beautiful decor, & they were booked!

Beautiful spot to watch the sunset and excellent food and service.
The food was terrible!!! We had an office meeting there and I had the option of chicken, salmon, or veggie dish. I chose the chicken and was extremely disappointed. It was dry and rubbery so we ended up having a LOT of bread… will NOT be back

Our server Choullian was very friendly. Food was excellent as always. Hope they stay safe with the upcoming hurricane.
Food was very good except my filet tips were dry. Scallops were very good. Love the place, but we were seated too close to the piano & we couldn’t have a conversation. She should be in the background more.
Sat outside. Back open after Helena. Food was awesome and service great.
Food and service was excellent. I have been dining at Bon Appetit since 1987. I have never been disappointed. It is my favorite place to dine. Opps I almost forgot the Sunsets and music are Terrific.
In April Bon Appetit did a celebration of life dinner hosting 20 of my Dad's closet friends and relatives. It could not have gone better. Everything, absolutely everything was perfect. The food fantastic, the service prompt and attentive. The price was extremely reasonable. I've recommended them now a few times for others I know looking for a place to celebrate special events.
