Society Table

I took my mom here for Mother's Day brunch and we had a great time.Food and drinks are delicious Parking can get complicated. I wish there was more of an ocean view from the dining area, but after eating we moved to an upper deck to relax for a little while.

Nice little breakfast spot in the Don Caesar. I originally had to send the egg white omelette back because it was too greasy but the restaurant really was responsive and handled remaking my food eloquently I ended up having bacon and scrambled eggs which was good. The service was good and the ambience was a really pretty restaurant very romantic.

Sad that the Signature Concoctions aren't fresh fruit ingredients. That would make the drink feel like a premium experience, the sugar syrups kill the taste of a tropical drink. This is the most historic resort on the beach, details should matter. But the space is great and the staff helps make the experience with a good menu

Our waiter Korey was great! We had the calamari fries, goat cheese fritters & friend green tomatoes. Added tequila shots, pineapple jalapeño margaritas & blackberry margaritas.

I booked a solo weekend at the Don to reset and recharge before the new year (separate review for the Don Cesar as a whole later). This is one of the few restaurants on site at the Don. I liked that I didn't need to leave the hotel/resort. Conveniently located. Important to note on two of my three visits to this restaurant we were one of the only parties there. The good:The food is good. The food gets 4.5 stars. I was pleasantly surprised! The host station was prompt, friendly and answered some questions I had regarding on site dining. Recommended food items: Goat cheese fritters are probably my favorite thing on the menu. Ribeye, cheeseburger, scallops--all excellent. The flatbreads are not good. Cesar salad leaves much to be desired. Way too much egg. Ambiance is good. Clean. Food runners were good and food came out timely and at the proper temp. They have indoor and outdoor dining. The bad:The wait service is slow. All three times I've been there in the last month. The servers have little to no urgency. Def order water with whatever you normally drink so you don't die of thirst because it'll be a minute. There is lots of room for improvement on the wait staff. I just expected more for it being at The Don Cesar. They were quick to greet and deliver initial drink order but then waited almost 10 minutes for the server to come back to take food orders, bring condiments, refills etc. Grouper sandwich was lacking in flavor, flatbreads are more like a bland salad with bread underneath. Also, Rowe and Society Table are essentially the same restaurant. Why be confusing and have two names...? It just doesn't make sense. Also, the entrance is not clearly marked for Society Table so you end up walking around trying to find it. All in all I'd eat there again. Just wish the servers were more attentive. It was really disappointing. Otherwise it would've been a great experience all around.

Great spot inside the Don CeSar hotel. You can eat and watch the sunset, what more do you need?The potato and leek soup was fantastic. We also had the caesar salad and the burger. Definitely will be back. Check out my photos!

The Society Table Restaurant was formerly known as The Sea Porch and is an outdoor and indoor poolside restaurant on the first floor of the north wing of the Don Cesar Resort, aka the Pink Palace of St Pete Beach! The Society Table serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a casual but upscale resort setting with a great view of the beautiful resorts pink palace style architecture, pool, palm trees, and partial view of the beach. The Society Table is an ideal spot to catch a nice sunset while witnessing memorizing pool reflections of the palm trees, colors of the sky, and the sunset!The Double Cheeseburger came with thick cut bacon, pimento cheese, Bourbon onion jam, on a brioche Hun with French fries. The Burger was huge and not too dry. 8/10 The Seared Scallops came with 4 huge scallops and charred corn, bacon, scallion, brown butter. The scallops were well Marinated and tasty. 8/10 The Whole Branzino came with a huge branzino Fish that hung off both sides of the plate, grilled asparagus, confit tomato, roasted potato, lemon thyme vinaigrette. This is a very filling meal and not a fish you can find at many restaurants. However, you do have to be very careful for bones! 9/10 The Seared Gulf Grouper is a locally caught favorite which came with parmesan herb risotto, melted leeks, zucchini, & shrimp butter sauce. 9/10 Our service was on the slow side but we had a large party of 6. Our dinner party took about 2.5 hours start to finish but it was time well spent. If you're in the St Pete Beach Area and not in a hurry, I highly recommend visting the Society Table for a nice sunset and dinner!

My brother and I took my mother a few weeks ago for a birthday lunch at Society. Everything was amazing from the service to the meals we enjoyed. The grouper sandwich was probably one of the best Iv ever had in my entire life. Our server I believe his name was Edner did an amazing job. He was extremely attentive and he was 5 stars all the way around. He chatted with us and made us feel like home. I felt I needed to leave this review because these days it's hard to get service and quality of food together at the same restaurant. Thank you Don Cesar and Edner. We will definitely be back!

I took my husband here for breakfast (his favorite meal of the day) on Fathers Day and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our interactions with the staff, from the time I made our reservation by phone to the time we left, were nothing short of stellar. Everyone was incredibly upbeat, friendly & helpful, and our server, Becky was the best! She was engaging, while efficient & personable, and we'd go back just to see her. Oh, and the food was great, too! We were so busy enjoying the pleasant surroundings & people that I neglected to get any close up pix of our meals, but everything was delicious, prepared perfectly and I especially loved the mustard-based sauce on my Eggs Benedict vs the usual calorie-laden hollandaise sauce. We highly recommend, and ask for Becky, who deserves a raise!

Our food was excellent and Becky our server was perfection - but in April of 2023 the Don Cesar policy is to not accept US Cash currency for meal payment - woah - seriously? What a disappointment! Get it together Don Cesar!!!!! So many dining choices - don't make us not choose YOU! Locals want to feel welcome with US cash!
