Very nice, love the atmosphere. Food was great. The bread was awesome; I ordered it twice! Will definitely go back. Enjoyed the company of my son, who took me there with my friend. Will go back.

I had an amazing meal here. The cocktails were wonderful, especially the Sent Lis. The music they had on was also great, from, UB40 to Social D, to Marley. Added to the atmosphere. My Red Snapper was delicious.

Good food, romantic setting, decent service. The food was very tasty, but I noticed the portions were super small. It could be my americanized eyes being bigger than my stomach, but they were smaller. The smoked gouda dip with Brussel sprouts was really good. The service was swift and courteous. There’s plenty of parking and a great space for a date night. I wouldn’t bring children.

A fantastic meal! She wanted to come for the atmosphere and wasn’t disappointed. Loved the service, drinks, and the half chicken dish! My wife rolled her eyes back in her head over her gulf fish.

Stopped by for a quick bite. We were not disappointed. Lasagna is rich and delicious. Randall the bartender gave amazing service. Limited menu but everything extraordinarily prepared. You will not be disappointed.

What a lovely Easter Holiday experience. I’ve been to many many restaurants, to either dine in or work and the Bywater American Bistro was absolutely my best dining experience yet!

Spectacular dinner and drinks! I had the crudo, cavatelli, the chocolate ganache dessert, and two delicious cocktails. I sat at the bar which looks right into the kitchen. Fantastic ambiance and wonderful staff! The bartender took great care of me – she made excellent recommendations. Don’t miss out on this place!

I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at this local gem in the Bywater. Maria was my server and bartender, accompanied by Randall, their master cocktail mixologist. He uses fresh ingredients like habanero, watermelon, pineapple, cantaloupe, etc., to create one-of-kind delicious, and unique creations that are sure to get your tastebuds dancing. I started my food Journey with the blackened octopus, cooked to perfection, followed by the burrata paired with peaches. I followed the recommendation of Maria and Randall and got the Cavatelli with shrimp and fresh herbs. It was much lighter than I expected, which was a welcomed surprise. The entire staff was welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent, qualities that will keep me coming back every time.
