Middle Grounds Grill

Very good food, very attentive staff, and valet parking. Upscale feel and rather upscale prices, but casual dress is okay. Get there for the early-bird specials (I know, but it's Florida!) and save a LOT. For us, the early bird menu was 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm, but our appetizer (calamari) was only $4 and shrimp scampi was only $13.95, which was significantly less than the regular menu. Even at full price, though, the food is really good.

Terrific food, drinks and service. The bacon wrapped shrimp and brussel sprouts were flavorful and amazing. I had the pecan crusted snapper and my wife had the grouper, both fantastic. For dessert we had the fried cheese cake which was a great end to a terrific meal. Plus, our service for our last night in the area was top notched and energetic. Glad we stopped in.

Excellent food and excellent service, strongly recommend this place for a great dining experience. I had the calamari and macadamia nut crusted snapper and can't begin to how good it was. Definitely the best seafood I have ever had. The wait was a little long(35 min or so) to get in and to be expected when you show up without a reservation like we did on a Saturday night, but they did not disappoint with the food and service.

Went to the early bird special, the servings are small but delicious. We had the coconut shrimp, the sirloin steak and the pork. All dishes were good. We followed it with the key lime custard and chocolate lava cake. They were both excellent.

Mel gave us great service. Not a quick style dinner. Artichoke fondue is amazing. Great steak and shrimp pesto.
