Gulf Gate Estates Restaurants

Service, waitress and meal were excellent,. This was the 2nd consecutive week I ate lunch at Connors and that alone should be acclaim.!

I stopped looking for a “favorite” Italian restaurant after I came here. It’s cozy, friendly and serves consistently great dishes. The Trenne Pasta dish is pure comfort food but their Daily Specials board and menu offer other excellent choices. The fish and seafood dishes are also excellent . Just save room for the Limoncello cake—it’s worth the calories!

I love the ambience at La Dolce Vita...very Italian and intimate. A good date night destination. And the staff are very friendly and inviting. If you go once, you will definitely want to go often. When I went, there was a singer who did very well and wasn't overly loud or intrusive. It's obvious there are a lot of regulars who were greeted by name and hugs. This is a very warm and friendly place with great food!

My third excellent meal experience. I think this place is great. I had the lasagna, which just envelopes you in warmth. A special call out for calamari - the chef has a particularly deft touch in getting the calamari to exactly the right tenderness and crispness. One of the specials was a chicken parmesan kind of dish - I had it the next day for lunch and was extremely happy with it. Compounded with the friendliest of service - we are not regulars, but were still greeted as if we were long lost family, this is an extremely nice place of a special dinner. Can't recommend it enough.

Returned to Clayton's after we discovered it a year ago during a getaway to Siesta Key. Atmosphere is fun - love the whimsical artwork on the wall! Service was great. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Food was really good! I had a pizza. I didn't think I would eat the whole thing, but it was so delicious I ate every bite. Crust was crispy, and pizza had just the right amount of cheese and sauce, and full of flavor! Caesar salad was good but not exceptional. It was crisp and fresh but lacking flavor punch typical of Caesar and croutons were mediocre. My husband had the catch of the day and ate every bite! Delicious!! We both agreed the calamari was not good at all though the dipping sauce was amaaazing! I ended up eating the calamari because the sauce was just that good. Calamari itself was greasy, chewy, and not crispy at all. So, overall a great experience and we can't wait to come again during our next getaway. We will skip the calamari though.
