About the restaurant

BellaBrava New World Trattoria was born in 2005 in Downtown Saint Petersburg. Over the years since, BellaBrava has been voted Best Restaurant in Saint Petersburg, Best Italian, and is a perennial Guest favorite on Beach Drive.

Less formal than a ristorante, our service is casual, our prices remain reasonable and our emphasis is on a steady clientele rather than haute cuisine. Old World flavors mingle with New World flair. From seafood to traditional pasta, pizzas, and more, we are positive everyone will find something delicious to savor.

BellaBrava’s unique Woodstone™ ovens cook delicious pizzas and a guest favorite, the Crostata.

Our ingredients are fresh, often locally sourced, and evoke the flavors of Tuscany and other delicious cuisines from Italy. With friendly, competent staff, BellaBrava aims to be your casual dining spot.

Pinellas Park

About the restaurant

Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

We had a fabulous experience, from the time we entered until the time we left. Everything was wonderful. We had reservations but decided to sit at the bar. Kayle (probably incorrect spelling) was the bartender, she was very personable and made great recommendations on drinks, which all four of us loved! I especially loved the sweet and spicy margarita, Kayle made it more spicy and less sweet for me, which turned out to be perfect. Appetizers were great as well, loved the black bean dip. There were four of us and we all loved our meals. We will definitely be back. In fact, we're planning a girl's night out, and we'll definitely be going back to Doc Ford's

The oyster Rockefeller was horrible. Not baked long enough and to much salt.

We visited Mad Beach Cantina for the first time last year and have been looking forward to returning ever since. We love the food, the staff are very friendly and the service is always good. Would definitely recommend and we will probably eat there again before the end of our vacation.
