St. Petersburg

Needed a bite to eat while in St. Petersburg. While walking we saw a beautiful bright looking pizza a couple of ladies were eating. It looked delicious so we stopped in.
We didn't realize that Colony only had pizza on the menu. So, we ordered pizza. We had a salad pizza and one that we added the toppings that we wanted. Overall the pizza was very good. We enjoyed both and the server was great.
We were there at about 4:00pm and the restaurant was pretty empty. It was very clean and had outside eating as well as inside eating.
My only complaint would be that the menu was only pizza. I could have really used some wings or some type of meat.

We randomly selected this place as we were meandering the downtown streets. Our kids wanted pizza and we were able to sit outside and relax. I loved the pizza and so did my family. My only complaint is that I wish they had some other things from which to choose. It’s a restaurant based in CT and they have a few different ones scattered throughout CT and then here. I really liked the taste of the pizza-it’s thin crust, but the sauce was light and not overpowering. Our service was spot on and our server was great. He was attentive and seemed to appear whenever we needed something. I’d definitely go back, but like I said, I just wish they had more items. In some respects, it makes the decision to order really easy because it’s pretty limited!!! But the taste was great!

This place was just okay. Colony Grill was very clean inside and had the space divided between the bar side and the dining side at 8:00 on a Saturday night. We were surprised that it was pretty much empty except for at the bar when all the surrounding restaurants were packed.
Our server was okay, nothing special, but probably because there's not much to do since there's only one item on the menu. Menu. The one item is pizza, apparently pizza from their original restaurants in Connecticut.

The pizza itself was not great. This is the first time ever that I have had to put salt on a pizza to give it flavor. We used all of the toppings on the table to help with the flavor of the pizza. It was extremely greasy and all of the toppings were just piled on top. One of the diners at our table compared it to Red Baron pizza with fresher ingredients. They also only give you small paper plates to eat off of so the amount of grease is crazy. They could at least get real plates for the dining side and use the paper plates for the bar side. This just felt lazy.

Most of the wait staff was huddled around the front of the restaurant chatting the whole time we were there because there was only two full tables in the dining side and a couple tables out front that people were eating at.
Overall, we would not be back. There are too many good pizza places within walking distance of this that have other options on their menu, real utensils and plates, and just have overall better food. I'm sure for the people that lived in CT, this is probably a great throwback pizza for them, but for the average diner this place was not good.

We stopped at Colony Grill because of its great location on Central Ave and because they had many outdoor tables were we could park our bikes. Great spot for people watching. Having said that, we went in with low expectations because they ONLY serve PIZZA. See photos of their whole menu, that is it. Limited topping options and only one Crust. We are very picky on Crust and I only like thin crispy Crust, and they got it perfect! You start with a $10 pie, then add toppings for $1.75 each. We went with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, mushrooms, and black olives. It was delicious!

Love the hot oil pizza here! A sleeper hit is the breakfast pizza. So delicious. And I’d be remiss not to mention the amazing service here. Everyone who works here is so friendly and welcoming! Definitely stop in for some pie and a beer.
