BLUFIN Waterfront Grill

I'm very happy to share my extremely positive experience at this restaurant tonight. Honestly, I was hesitant to have dinner at this restaurant due to past experience and rude customer service in the past. I am flight crew and have been here often. I decided to come down for dinner anyway although I was apprehensive. . I was so pleasantly surprised to receive such great friendly and fun service from both Nick T and Croix. These bartenders were friendly and attentive. You could tell they worked well together too and were happy to be there. The food was also delicious and fresh. I ordered the Ahi tuna Poke Salad and it was awesome. Please keep it up and continue to commend those employees who treat your customers so well. It's very much appreciated and made for such an enjoyable evening. Thank you Nick T and Croix!

Nick was amazing! He is super sweet, helpful, and quick! We really enjoyed the service and can't wait to come back !

Horrible! Went on Valentine's Day, had reservations, on time. My boyfriend had reserved a table w/the water view for special gift for me. Walked in and there's a line of 6 couples ahead of us. Didn't see a hostess until 5 minutes later. She check 1 couple to and didn't return to the front until 7 minutes later. Took another couple to table and didn't return for another 10 minutes. Took 3rd couple and 15 minutes passed and she's no where to be found. Two couples ahead of us and 3 couples behind us. We went to ask a bartender where's the hostess, and stated something about being backed up in the kitchen, yet the hostess nor the manager could let the guest know of the inconvenience. We leave after 35-40 minutes only to get hit with a $15.98 parking charge for 35 minutes of nothing. Luckily we were able to get a last minute reservation at another place.

Ordered here two times as I was staying at the hotel. The food was great the service was questionable. I ordered a flatbread pizza and a shrimp Caesar salad last night. The flat bread tasted as if it was microwaved, but the salad was amazing and came with lots of shrimp! The salad was absolutely delicious. The bartender last night didn't seem to want to be there. Perhaps he had a long day and I know everyone is going through something, so my party gave him a lot of grace. He would get better tips if he just smiled though. He was a total downer. Not what people come on vacation for...This afternoon I went back and had a more pleasant experience as I devoured a Blackend Grouper Sandwich. I did order the meal to dine in the restaurant, but was given a to go box, which was fine because it didn't take away from the food. The person working seemed to be a bit overwhelmed and confused. He even tried to give me someone else's order. Perhaps they need a better POS system or table markers. I really wanted to give the restaurant a 4/5 but the first night's lack of customer service was just too much to over look. Plenty of other places to go for seafood that will make you feel welcome.

Nick was Amazing. Great service even though he was alone with a full room of people. Food was great.

Enjoyed breakfast. Sandy provided excellent service. Nice view of bay. Cute dolphins often seen swimming.

I believe his name was Nick? Tampa double tree Blufin waterfront grill ! He was fantastic ! Bartender was working on 2/19/2025. He went above and beyond with all the customers.

I'm sure the food is good we came and there was no food we had reservations and we're supposed to wait an hour for more food to come no manager or anything told us we had to wait for a customer to come tell us this is ridiculous never coming back terrible service.

First of all, the location is beautiful. The people that work here are really nice ND the food and drinks are excellent (highly recommend the vodka martini). Highly recommend!!

Fast service and food was taster. Great prices and ambiance. Enjoyed it with my wife, would go again soon when in town
