Peninsula Cocktails Kitchen - Gulfport

This a cute place. We had a table outside and we were able to enjoy the nice weather. We had brunch. They had a small menu for brunch but the plates were good. After that we walked down the street to see the beach. Beautiful location Service: Dine in Meal type: Brunch Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Wednesday evening they have wonderful live music but the food is pricey. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Food was substandard and obscenely mediocre. They need work on how the food in that kitchen is coming out. Ambiance was great! The server was nice.

We had made plans to eat at another restaurant in Gulfport. Unfortunately, it was an hour wait!!! We decided to go to Isabellas. The service was impeccable, I love that they put water on the tables that is such a great touch I am a huge water consumer! However, the menu needs some work. There's nothing really carb friendly on there other than the avocado toast, and that comes with an acquired taste! Nothing really offered à la carte, like just eggs, and a protein option. I think the menu needs a little bit of tweaking especially when you see that there is an hour wait at the restaurant across the street. As we were there, I noticed some people would look at the menu and then just leave. Cute front porch environment and again the staff was impeccable, courteous, on top of it, however, the menu again could use a little bit of work. Oh, if you like piña coladas, and getting caught in the rain! And if you like pancakes, I highly recommend that you order the unique Pina Colada pancakes! YUMMY

My friend and I were thrilled to discover this vintage, seaside gem (built in 1905)! Isabelle's is a cultured escape from the litany of unvaried beachcomber grills that saturate St. Pete. We loved dining al fresco on the sweeping, airy veranda. The swordfish is excellent, and the elderflower martini is a must. The menu is mostly Southern cuisine with a modern spin--think succotash and fried green tomatoes. Alijah was a fantastic server; he goes above and beyond to be helpful, and has a great sense of humor--a true delight. It's worth noting the abundant dog-friendly seating, great live music and table side magic. And if you love haunted places--you'll be deliciously spooked to know Isabelle's is named after one of several happy ghosts whom local legends claim occupy this space.
