Malios Beach House - St Pete Beach (FL)

5 /5 Steve X: We had dinner here on a Wednesday night in mid December. The place was packed. And for good reason—this is a first rate fine dining restaurant with excellent food, superb service and an elegant atmosphere. The noise level wasn’t bad in the main dining area—except for the three guys next to us, so we got a table in the bar area, which was quiet even though it was packed also. The hostess said the bar area was always quieter than the main dining area. The menu and wine list is extensive. Our server Alex suggested a nice Sauvignon blanc that was wonderful. He was very friendly, super accommodating of food allergies and preferences, and very attentive. The meatball appetizer in Marinara sauce had two of the largest meatballs we’ve seen in an appetizer and was delicious. We enjoyed it together with complimentary warm French bread. The pan seared halibut for dinner was expertly prepared and a large portion. The chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream and the raspberry sorbet were terrific desserts. The espresso was good as was the mint tea. Even though the restaurant was packed we were waited on promptly, our orders were not delayed and were spaced apart perfectly, and the food was hot and nicely served. Portions are generous, and while this restaurant is not inexpensive, it was worth the money for a wonderful dining experience. We definitely will return the next time we vacation in the area and definitely recommend this restaurant for a terrific fine dining experience.

5 /5 Tricia Gorsich: We celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary at Malio’s Beach House, and it was truly perfect. We sat at the bar where the service was excellent, and the espresso martini was one of the best we’ve had. We started with the PEI oysters—an absolute must if you’re an oyster lover. For our entrée, we shared the aged ribeye cooked Pittsburgh style. It had a fantastic char and was cooked beautifully. The Princess Pasta was to die for; I was genuinely sad when there wasn’t any left! Overall, a wonderful experience. We’re so happy we found this restaurant and will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Casey Aitken: Absolutely incredible experience at Malio’s Beach House! From start to finish, everything was perfect with amazing food, attentive service, and a great atmosphere. We started with the Oysters on the Half Shell and Lobster Escargot, both fresh and full of flavor. The Shrimp Theresa and Blackened Scallops were cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful with just the right amount of seasoning. The Brussels Sprouts and Lobster Mac and Cheese were rich and delicious, and the fresh pasta and petite filet rounded out the meal beautifully. For drinks, the Espresso Martini was smooth and perfectly balanced, while the Peanut Butter Cup Martini and Chocolate Martini were dessert in a glass. To finish, the Chocolate Brownie was warm, rich, and decadent. The service was outstanding with a friendly team that paid attention to every detail. You can tell they truly care about creating a memorable dining experience. Highly recommend Malio’s Beach House. One of the best meals we’ve had in a long time.

5 /5 Izzy: What an awesome experience me and my fiancé had at Malio’s. Came here to celebrate his proposal to me. Our waiter was always on top of things. Constantly checked on us, always close by. Kept our glasses full & very pleasant attitude. Our meals were delicious. My only complaint was that it was pricey, but I guess that’s the price you may for a Michelin restaurant; which is well deserved.
